NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Accounting Policy:
In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation
have been made to the accompanying statements for the quarter ended March 31,
2000, and all such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.
2. Partnership Termination:
The Partnership Agreement provides for the dissolution of the Partnership upon
the occurrence of certain events, including the disposition of all of its
interests in real estate. The Partnership sold its final real estate investment
in August 1997. The Partnership has retained a portion of the cash from the
property sales to satisfy obligations of the Partnership as well as to
establish a reserve for contingencies. The timing of the termination of the
Partnership and final distribution of cash will depend upon the nature and
extent of liabilities and contingencies which exist or may arise. Such
contingencies may include legal and other fees and costs stemming from
litigation involving the Partnership including, but not limited to, the Bruss
and Masri lawsuits discussed in Note 4 of Notes to the Financial Statements.
Due to this litigation, the Partnership will not be dissolved and reserves will
be held by the Partnership until the conclusion of such contingencies. There
can be no assurances as to the time frame for the conclusion of all
contingencies.
3. Transactions with Affiliates:
Fees and expenses paid and payable by the Partnership to affiliates during the
quarter ended March 31, 2000 are:
Paid Payable
--------- ---------
Reimbursement of expenses to
the General Partner, at cost $ 30,884 $ 11,096
4. Contingency:
The Partnership is currently involved in two related lawsuits, Masri vs. Lehman
Brothers, Inc., et al. and Bruss, et al. vs. Lehman Brothers, Inc., et al.,
whereby the Partnership and certain affiliates have been named as defendants
alleging substantially similar claims involving certain state securities and
common law violations with regard to the property acquisition process of the
Partnership, and to the adequacy and accuracy of disclosures of information
concerning, as well as marketing efforts related to, the offering of the
Limited Partnership Interests of the Partnership. The defendants continue to
vigorously contest these actions. A plaintiff class has not been certified in
either action. With respect to the Masri case, no determinations upon any
significant issues have been made. The Bruss complaint was filed on January 25,
1999. On September 24, 1999, the court granted the defendants' motion to
dismiss the complaint for failure to state a cause of action. The plaintiffs
filed an amended complaint on November 30, 1999. The defendants have filed a
motion to dismiss the complaint for failure to state a cause of action. The
defendants continue to vigorously contest these actions. It is not determinable
at this time how the outcome of either action will impact the remaining cash
reserves of the Partnership. The Partnership believes it has meritorious
defenses to contest the claims.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Balcor Realty Investors-83 (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership formed
in 1981 to invest in and operate income-producing real property. The
Partnership raised $75,005,000 from sales of Limited Partnership Interests and
utilized these proceeds to acquire eleven real property investments and a
minority joint venture interest in one additional real property. The
Partnership has no properties remaining in its portfolio at March 31, 2000.
Inasmuch as the management's discussion and analysis below relates primarily to
the time period since the end of the last fiscal year, investors are encouraged
to review the financial statements and the management's discussion and analysis
contained in the annual report for 1999 for a more complete understanding of
the Partnership's financial position.
Operations
- ----------
2000 Compared to 1999
- ---------------------
The operations of the Partnership in 2000 and 1999 consisted of administrative
expenses which were partially offset by interest income earned on short-term
investments.
As a result of higher interest rates in 2000, interest income on short-term
investments increased during the quarter ended March 31, 2000 as compared to
the same period in 1999.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The cash position of the Partnership decreased by approximately $41,000 as of
March 31, 2000 as compared to December 31, 1999 due to cash used in operating
activities for the payment of administrative expenses, which was partially
offset by interest income earned on short-term investments.
The Partnership Agreement provides for the dissolution of the Partnership upon
the occurrence of certain events, including the disposition of all of its
interests in real estate. The Partnership sold its final real estate investment
in August 1997. The Partnership has retained a portion of the cash from the
property sales to satisfy obligations of the Partnership as well as to
establish a reserve for contingencies. The timing of the termination of the
Partnership and final distribution of cash will depend upon the nature and
extent of liabilities and contingencies which exist or may arise. Such
contingencies may include legal and other fees and costs stemming from
litigation involving the Partnership including, but not limited to, the Bruss
and Masri lawsuits discussed in Note 4 of Notes to the Financial Statements.
Due to this litigation, the Partnership will not be dissolved and reserves will
be held by the Partnership until the conclusion of such contigencies. There
can be no assurances as to the time frame for the conclusion of all
contingencies.
Limited Partners have received distributions totaling $649.97 per $1,000
Interest, as well as certain tax benefits. Of this amount, $105.50 represents
Net Cash Receipts and $544.47 represents Net Cash Proceeds. No additional
distributions are anticipated to be made prior to the termination of the
Partnership. However, after paying final partnership expenses, any remaining
cash reserves will be distributed. Limited Partners will not recover all of
their original investment.
