                                 (Unaudited)


NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information
and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of Angeles Realty Corporation II (the "Managing General
Partner"), all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 1996, are not necessarily indicative
of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31,
1996.  For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in Angeles Income Properties, Ltd. III's (the "Partnership")
annual report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1995 information to conform to
the 1996 presentation.


NOTE B - INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURES

The Partnership has a 33.3% investment in Northtown Mall Partners ("Northtown")
which is shown as "Equity interest in net liabilities of joint venture" on the
balance sheet.  The Partnership had a 57% investment in Burlington Outlet Mall
Joint Venture ("Burlington") and a 50% investment in Moraine West Carrollton
Joint Venture ("Moraine").  The Partnership no longer has an investment in these
joint ventures due to the foreclosure of Burlington's investment property in
1995 and the sale of Moraine's investment property in 1994.

Condensed balance sheet information as of September 30, 1996, for Northtown is
as follows:

The Partnership accounts for its 33.3% investment in Northtown using the equity
method of accounting.  Under the equity method, the Partnership records its
equity interest in earnings or losses of the joint venture; however, the
investment in the joint venture will be recorded at an amount less than zero (a
liability) to the extent of the Partnership's share of net liabilities of the
joint venture.  The increased loss at Northtown is attributable to a decrease in
rental income and an increase in insurance and real estate taxes.


NOTE C - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED PARTIES

The Partnership has no employees and is dependent on the Managing General
Partner and its affiliates for the management and administration of all
partnership activities.  The Partnership Agreement provides for payments to
affiliates for services and as reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by
affiliates on behalf of the Partnership.

The following amounts owed to the Managing General Partner and affiliates during
the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 were paid or accrued:

                                                   1996         1995
                                                     (in thousands)

      Property management fees                   $  47        $  51
      Reimbursement for services of
         affiliates                                139          172

The Partnership insures its properties under a master policy through an agency
and insurer unaffiliated with the Managing General Partner.  An affiliate of the
Managing General Partner acquired, in the acquisition of a business, certain
financial obligations from an insurance agency which was later acquired by the
agent who placed the current year's master policy.  The current agent assumed
the financial obligations to the affiliate of the Managing General Partner who
receives payments on these obligations from the agent.  The amount of the
Partnership's insurance premiums accruing to the benefit of the affiliate of the
Managing General Partner by virtue of the agent's obligations is not
significant.


NOTE D -  SUBSEQUENT EVENT - MORTGAGE NOTE REFINANCING

On October 31, 1996, the Managing General Partner refinanced the mortgage debt
secured by Poplar Square Shopping Center. The Partnership paid off debt and
accrued interest of approximately $3,435,000 at closing and paid closing costs
and funded tax and insurance escrows and repair and replacement reserves with
$3,800,000 of proceeds from the new debt which  matures on November 1, 2006. The
new debt payments are based on a 25 year amortization.  The loan carries an
interest rate of 9.2%.  Title to Poplar Square Shopping Center was transferred
from the Partnership to Poplar Square AIP III, L.P. as a result of the
refinancing.  The Partnership is the 99% limited partner and Poplar Square GP
Limited Partnership is the 1% general partner in Poplar Square AIP III, L.P.


ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS

The Partnership's investment properties consist of one apartment complex and one
commercial property.  The following table sets forth the average occupancy of
the properties for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995:

                                                       Average
                                                      Occupancy
Property                                          1996         1995

Lake Forest Apartments
  Brandon, Mississippi                             92%         95%

Poplar Square Shopping Center
  Medford, Oregon                                  97%         97%


The decrease in occupancy at Lake Forest Apartments is due to competition from
new apartment complexes in the Brandon, Mississippi area.  This property has
some physical needs (wood replacement and painting) and the Managing General
Partner anticipates that occupancy will improve once the physical deficiencies
are addressed.

The Partnership recorded a net loss of approximately $994,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996, as compared to a net loss of approximately
$1,128,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. The Partnership
recorded a net loss of approximately $325,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1996, as compared to a net loss of approximately $519,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 1995. The  decrease in the net loss for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 1996, as compared to the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1995, is primarily due to a decrease in equity
in loss of joint ventures. The decrease in equity in loss of joint venture is
primarily attributable to the Partnership's share of Burlington's loss in 1995.

Operating expenses increased primarily due to the hiring of two additional
maintenance staff to make improvements to vacant units at Lake Forest
Apartments.  The decrease in general and administrative expenses is primarily
related to decreases in cost reimbursements for asset management, partnership
accounting and investor services. Bad debt expenses increased as a result of an
increase in the reserve required based on a review of the tenant's accounts
receivable at the Poplar Square Shopping Center.  The decrease in property tax
expense relates to a refund for an overpayment of property taxes on Poplar
Square Shopping Center in the prior year.

As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the Managing General
Partner monitors the rental market environment of each of its investment
properties to assess the feasibility of increasing rents, maintaining or
increasing occupancy levels and protecting the Partnership from increases in
expenses.  As part of this plan, the Managing General Partner attempts to
protect the Partnership from the burden of inflation-related increases in
expenses by increasing rents and maintaining a high overall occupancy level.
However, due to changing market conditions, which can result in the use of
rental concessions and rental reductions to offset softening market conditions,
there is no guarantee that the Managing General Partner will be able to sustain
such a plan.

At September 30, 1996, the Partnership had unrestricted cash of approximately
$1,141,000 versus approximately $2,017,000 at September 30, 1995.  Net cash
provided by operating activities decreased primarily as a result of an increase
in escrows for taxes.  Net cash used in investing activities increased due to an
increase in advances to Northtown in 1996 and a non-recurring distribution
received from Moraine in 1995. The Partnership advanced money to Northtown
during the nine months ended September 30, 1996, to pay for tenant improvements,
supervisory fees and debt service.  The increase in net cash used in financing
activities is due to the loan costs incurred in 1996 in an effort to refinance
the mortgage indebtedness secured by the Poplar Square Shopping Center.

On October 31, 1996, the Managing General Partner refinanced the mortgage debt
secured by Poplar Square Shopping Center. The Partnership paid off debt, and
accrued interest, of approximately $3,435,000 at closing and paid closing costs
and funded tax and insurance escrows and repair and replacement reserves with
the proceeds from the $3,800,000 new debt which  matures on November 1, 2006.
The new debt payments are based on a 25 year amortization.  The loan carries an
interest rate of 9.2%.  Title to Poplar Square Shopping Center was transferred
from the Partnership to Poplar Square AIP III, L.P. as a result of the
refinancing.  The Partnership is the 99% limited partner and Angeles Income
Properties Ltd. III is the 1% general partner in Poplar Square AIP III, L.P.

The sufficiency of existing liquid assets to meet future liquidity and capital
expenditure requirements is directly related to the level of capital
expenditures required at the properties to adequately maintain the physical
assets and other operating needs of the Partnership.  Such assets are currently
thought to be sufficient for any near-term needs of the Partnership. The new
mortgage indebtedness, which resulted from the October 31, 1996 refinance,
carries a 10 year term. Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of
net cash generated from operations, property sales and the availability of cash
reserves.

On March 15, 1991,  Northtown and the holder of the Northtown Mall mortgage note
payable entered into an Option Agreement (-Option-) whereby such lender has the
right and an option to purchase the Northtown Mall property on the terms and
conditions as set forth in the Option.  The purchase price of the property, as
set forth in the Option, is defined as the fair market value of the property.
Such Option can be exercised by written notice by the lender at specified dates.
The lender has indicated that it may exercise the Option. If the lender does
exercise the Option, the Managing General partner does not believe the sale of
the property will occur until 1997.  Currently, it is believed that the fair
market value of the property will be less than the underlying debt that secures
the property.  If the Option is exercised, the Partnership will write-off its
equity interest in net liabilities of joint venture which would result in the
recording of a significant gain to the Partnership.  Also, the Managing General
Partner is currently negotiating with a third party as a possible source of an
equity infusion, if the current lender does not exercise their option to acquire
Northtown.  The Partnership does not anticipate making significant advances to
Northtown in the future.

On October 30, 1995, the Partnership lost Burlington Outlet Mall located in
Burlington, NC, through a foreclosure by an unaffiliated mortgage holder.  The
property was not generating sufficient cash flow to meet debt service
requirements.  The non-payment of principal and interest constituted a default
under the terms of the mortgage agreement and allowed the holder of the mortgage
agreement to foreclose on the property.  The Partnership deemed it to be in the
best interest of the Partnership not to contest the foreclosure action.



                         PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Angeles Corporation ("Angeles"), either directly or through an affiliate,
maintained a central disbursement account (the "account") for the properties and
partnerships managed by Angeles and its affiliates, including the Partnership.
Angeles caused the Partnership to make deposits to the account ostensibly to
fund the payment of certain obligations of the Partnership.  However, of these
total deposits, at least $42,000 deposited by or on behalf of the Partnership
was used for purposes other than satisfying the liabilities of the Partnership.
Accordingly, the Partnership filed a Proof of Claim in the Angeles bankruptcy
proceedings for such amount.  However, subsequently the Managing General Partner
of the Partnership determined that the cost involved to pursue such claim would
likely exceed any amount received if in fact such claim were to be resolved in
favor of the Partnership.  Therefore, the Partnership withdrew this claim on
August 9, 1995.

The Managing General Partner is unaware of any other pending or outstanding
litigation that is not of a routine nature.  The Managing General Partner
believes that all such pending or outstanding litigation will be resolved
without a material adverse effect upon the business, financial condition, or
operations of the Partnership.
