Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the Partnership's annual 1996 audited
consolidated financial statements within Form 10-K.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include
all normal and reoccurring adjustments which are, in the opinion
of management, necessary to present a fair statement of financial
position as of May 31, 1997 and the results of operations for the
three and six months ended May 31, 1997 and 1996 and the
consolidated statements of cash flows and partners' capital
(deficit) for the six months ended May 31, 1997.  Results of
operations for the periods are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in order to
conform to the current year's presentation.

The following significant events have occurred subsequent to
fiscal year 1996 which require disclosure in this interim report
per Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01, Paragraph (a)(5):

The General Partners have engaged real estate brokers to assist
with the marketing of Swenson Business Park - Building C in San
Jose, California and Maitland Center Office Building C in
Orlando, Florida.  Additionally, the General Partners have
decided to market Two Financial Centre for sale and are in the
process of selecting a brokerage company.  The General Partners
currently anticipate that the sale of all of the Partnership's
properties will be completed in 1997.  Accordingly, the
properties have been reclassified on the consolidated balance
sheet as "Real estate assets held for disposition."

Effective as of January 1, 1997, the Partnership began
reimbursing certain expenses incurred by Real Estate Services
VII, Inc. and its affiliates in servicing the Partnership to the
extent permitted by the Partnership agreement.  In prior years,
affiliates of Real Estate Services VII, Inc. had voluntarily
absorbed these expenses.


Part I, Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
                Condition and Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The General Partners have engaged real estate brokers to assist with the
marketing of Swenson Business Park - Building C in San Jose, California and
Maitland Center Office Building C in Orlando, Florida.  Additionally, the
General Partners have decided to market Two Financial Centre for sale and are
currently in the process of selecting a brokerage company.  The General
Partners currently anticipate that the sale of all of the Partnership's
properties will be completed in 1997.  Accordingly, the properties have been
reclassified on the consolidated balance sheet as "Real estate assets held for
disposition."

The Partnership had cash and cash equivalents at May 31, 1997 of $1,813,766,
compared to $1,739,498 at November 30, 1996.  The increase is the result of net
cash provided by operations in the amount of $965,145 less cash distributions
totaling $858,586 and capital expenditures in the amount of $32,291.  The
Partnership also had a restricted cash balance of $166,907 at May 31, 1997
which is primarily comprised of security deposits.  The Partnership expects
sufficient cash flow from operations to be generated from the properties to
meet its future operating requirements.

Rent and other receivables totaled $179,718 at May 31, 1997, compared to
$134,924 at November 30, 1996.  The increase is mainly due to the timing of
rental payments at Maitland Center Office Building C and Two Financial Centre.
Prepaid expenses decreased to $5,745 at May 31, 1997 from $312,834 at November
30,1996. Deferred rent receivable decreased to $0 at May 31, 1997 from $135,289
at November 30, 1996.  The decreases are due to the classification of the
properties on the consolidated balance sheet as "Real estate assets held for
disposition."

Accounts payable and accrued expenses totaled $312,221 at May 31,1997 compared
to $405,275 at November 30, 1996.  The decrease is primarily due to the timing
of payments for real estate taxes for all of the Partnership's properties, and
a decrease in prepaid rent at Maitland Center Office Building C.  Due to
affiliates totaled $114,803 at May 31, 1997, compared to $42,846 at November
30, 1996, primarily reflecting the accrual for reimbursement of certain
expenses incurred by Real Estate Services VII, Inc. in servicing the
Partnership, as described below under "Results of Operations."

During the second quarter of 1997, two new leases were executed totaling 2,593
square feet at Two Financial Centre and one renewal totaling 1,586 square feet.
However, two tenants leasing a total of 2,136 square feet terminated their
leases and vacated the premises during the period.  As a result, the property
remained 77% leased at May 31, 1997.

The occupancy rate at Maitland Center Office Building C decreased to 96% at May
31, 1997 as a 3,388 square foot tenant vacated its space in May 1997 upon
expiration of its lease.  Three leases totaling 16,269 square feet are
scheduled to expire during the remainder of fiscal 1997.

A cash distribution of $4.25 per Unit was declared for the quarter ended May
31, 1997 and will be paid on or about July 15,1997 1997.  The distribution will
be funded from the Partnership's operations and was declared after a review of
the Partnership's current cash position and its anticipated cash needs for the
remainder of 1997.  The timing and amount of future cash distributions will be
determined quarterly by the General Partners.

Results of Operations

The Partnership's operations resulted in net income of $312,435 and $499,089
for the three and six months ended May 31, 1997, respectively, compared with
$195,777 and $373,417 for the corresponding periods in fiscal 1996.  The higher
net income for the three- and six-month periods in 1997 is primarily
attributable to higher rental income and lower depreciation and amortization
expense, which were partially offset by higher general and administrative
expenses.

Rental income totaled $917,805 and $1,852,788 for the three and six months
ended May 31, 1997, compared with $902,313 and $1,776,249 for the same periods
in 1996.  The increases in 1997 are primarily attributable to higher average
occupancy at Maitland Center Office Building C.  Interest income totaled
$22,339 and $43,239 for the three and six months ended May 31, compared with
$32,216 and $63,858 for the respective 1996 periods, reflecting lower average
cash balances in 1997.

Property operating expenses totaled $348,382 and $707,317 for the three and six
months ended May 31, 1997 compared with $344,864 and $683,518 for the
corresponding periods in 1996.  The increases are primarily due to higher
repairs and maintenance expenses and leasing commissions at Maitland Center
Office Building C.

Depreciation and amortization expenses totaled $143,344 and $490,359 for the
three and six months ended May 31, 1997 compared with $337,383 and $678,322 for
the corresponding periods in 1996. The decreases are due to the on-going
efforts to sell the Partnership's properties.

General and administrative expenses (affiliates) for the three and six months
ended May 31, 1997 were $86,342 and $95,626, respectively, compared with $6,178
and $18,212, respectively, for the same periods in 1996.  During the 1997
period, certain expenses incurred by Real Estate Services VII, Inc. and its
affiliates in servicing the Partnership, which were voluntarily absorbed by
affiliates of Real Estate Services VII, Inc. in prior periods, were accrued to
be reimbursed to Real Estate Services VII, Inc. and its affiliates.

As of May 31, 1997, lease levels at each of the properties were as follows: Two
Financial Centre - 77%; Maitland Center Office Building C - 96%; and Swenson
Business Park-Building C - 100%.
