                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)

NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Davidson
Diversified Real Estate I, L.P. (the "Partnership") 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 Davidson Diversified Properties, Inc.
(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 month period ended March 31, 1998 are
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ending December 31, 1998.  For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's annual
report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1997.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1997 information to conform to
the 1998 presentation.

Principles of Consolidation

During the third quarter of 1997, Ashley Woods Associates L.P. was restructured
into a limited liability company known as Ashley Woods L.L.C. ("Ashley Woods").
The Partnership owns 100% of the new entity.  As a result, the Partnership
consolidates its interest in Ashley Woods (whereby all accounts of Ashley Woods
are included in the consolidated financial statements of the Partnership with
intercompany accounts being eliminated).

NOTE B - DUE TO AFFILIATES

The Partnership is liable to a company affiliated with the Managing General
Partner through common ownership for real estate commissions in the amounts of
$125,000 for Revere Village and $196,000 for Essex which were sold in previous
years.  Payment of the commissions will not be made to the affiliated company
until after payment to the limited partners of their original invested capital,
plus 8% per annum cumulative non-compounded on their adjusted invested capital
commencing on the last day of the calendar quarter in which each limited partner
was admitted to the Partnership through the date of payment.

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. Prior to February 25, 1998, the Managing General Partner
was wholly-owned by MAE GP Corporation ("MAE GP"), an affiliate of Insignia
Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia"). Effective February 25, 1998, MAE GP was
merged into Insignia Properties Trust ("IPT"), which is an affiliate of
Insignia.  Thus, the Managing General Partner is now a wholly-owned subsidiary 
of IPT.  The partnership agreement provides for payments to affiliates for 
property management services based on a percentage of revenue and for 
reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by affiliates on behalf of the 
Partnership. The following amounts were paid to affiliates of the Managing 
General Partner during each of the three month periods ended March 31, 1998 and
1997 (in thousands):

                                                     1998             1997
Property management fees (included in
  operating expense)                                 $ 38             $ 37
Reimbursement for services of affiliates
  including $4,000 of construction services
  reimbursements for the three month period
  ending March 31, 1998 (included in
  investment properties and general and
  administrative and operating expenses)               29               19

For the period from January 1, 1997 to August 31, 1997, the Partnership insured
its properties under a master policy through an agency affiliated with the
Managing General Partner with an 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 master policy. The
agent assumed the financial obligations to the affiliate of the Managing General
Partner which received payments on these obligations from the agent.  The amount
of the Partnership's insurance premiums that accrued to the benefit of the
affiliate of the Managing General Partner by virtue of the agent's obligations
was not significant.

On September 26, 1997, an affiliate of the Managing General Partner purchased
Lehman Brother's Class "D" subordinated bonds of SASCO, 1992-MI.  These bonds
are secured by 55 multi-family apartment mortgage loan pairs held in Trust,
including Versailles on the Lake Apartments owned by the Partnership.

On March 17, 1998, Insignia entered into an agreement to merge its national
residential property management operations, and its controlling interest in IPT,
with Apartment Investment and Management Company ("AIMCO"), a publicly traded
real estate investment trust.  The closing, which is anticipated to happen in
the third quarter of 1998, is subject to customary conditions, including
government approvals and the approval of Insignia's shareholders.  If the
closing occurs, AIMCO will then control the Managing General Partner of the
Partnership.


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

The Partnership's investment properties consist of two apartment complexes.  The
following table sets forth the average occupancy of the properties for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997:


                                                       Average
                                                      Occupancy
                                                  1998         1997
Ashley Woods Apartments
  Cincinnati, Ohio                                 89%         87%

Versailles on the Lake Apartments
  Fort Wayne, Indiana                              90%         96%

The Managing General Partner attributes the decrease in occupancy at Versailles
on the Lake to the local rental market becoming soft.  Management at the
property plans to increase advertising in an effort to increase occupancy.

The Partnership realized net income of $5,000 for the three months ended March
31, 1998, compared to net income of $3,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1997.  The increase in net income is primarily due to higher rental revenue and
other income, partially offset by higher property tax expense.  Rental revenue
increased due to increased rental rates at both properties.  Other income
increased primarily due to increased interest income on higher average cash
balances from the refinancing of Ashley Woods in November 1997.  Partially
offsetting the increased revenue was increased property tax expense for Ashley
Woods, as estimated 1997 taxes were underaccrued due to a tax rate increase on
tax bills received and paid in arrears. Property tax expense for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 reflects this increase.

Operating expenses remained stable during the three months ended March 31, 1998
compared to three months ended March 31, 1997.  Included in operating expense
for the three months ended March 31, 1998 is approximately $6,000 of major
repairs and maintenance comprised primarily of window coverings.  For the three
months ended March 31, 1997, operating expense included approximately $3,000 of
major repairs and maintenance comprised of exterior building repairs and window
coverings.

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 March 31, 1998, the Partnership held cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $1,076,000 compared to approximately $461,000 at March 31, 1997.
The net decrease in cash and cash equivalents for the three months ended March
31, 1998 is $900,000 compared to $176,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1997.  Net cash provided by operations increased due to a decrease in cash used
for accounts payable and other liabilities due to the timing of payments.  Net
cash used in investing activities increased due to increased property
improvements and replacements.  Net cash used in financing activities increased
primarily due to increased distributions to the partners during the first three
months of 1998 compared to the first three months of 1997. The 1998 distribution
represented a portion of the net proceeds from the mortgage refinancing of
Ashley Woods, as discussed below.

On November 20, 1997, the Partnership refinanced the debt encumbering Ashley
Woods. The refinancing replaced indebtedness of approximately $5,941,000 with a
new mortgage in the amount of $8,000,000.  The new mortgage carries a stated
interest rate of 7.29% and is amortized over 30 years.  Payments of
approximately $55,000 are due on the first day of each month until maturity on
December 1, 2004, at which time a balloon payment of approximately $7,334,000 is
due.  Loan costs of approximately $159,000 relating to the refinancing have been
paid through March 31, 1998.

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 various 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 mortgage indebtedness of $10,472,000, net of discount, is amortized over
varying periods. Of this amount, $7,981,000, which matures in 2004, relates to
Ashley Woods and $2,491,000, which matures in 2002, relates to Versailles on the
Lake.  At the time of maturity, the properties will either be sold or
refinanced.  Distributions to partners of $901,000 and $200,000 were made during
the first quarters of 1998 and 1997, respectively. Future cash distributions
will depend on the levels of net cash generated from operations, refinancings,
property sales and the availability of cash reserves.  The Managing General
Partner does not anticipate making further distributions during 1998.

Year 2000

The Partnership is dependent upon the Managing General Partner and Insignia for
management and administrative services.  Insignia has completed an assessment
and will have to modify or replace portions of its software so that its computer
systems will function properly with respect to dates in the year 2000 and
thereafter (the "Year 2000 Issue").  The project is estimated to be completed
not later than December 31, 1998, which is prior to any anticipated impact on
its operating systems.  The Managing General Partner believes that with
modifications to existing software and conversions to new software, the Year
2000 Issue will not pose significant operational problems for its computer
systems. However, if such modifications and conversions are not made, or are not
completed timely, the Year 2000 Issue could have a material impact on the
operations of the Partnership.

                             PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In March 1998, several putative unit holders of limited partnership units of the
Partnership commenced an action entitled Rosalie Nuanes, et al. v. Insignia
Financial Group, Inc., et al. in the Superior Court of the State of California
for the County of San Mateo.  The plaintiffs named as defendants, among others,
the Partnership, the Managing General Partner and several of their affiliated
partnerships and corporate entities.  The complaint purports to assert claims on
behalf of a class of limited partners and derivatively on behalf of a number of
limited partnerships (including the Partnership) which are named as nominal
defendants, challenging the acquisition by Insignia and its affiliates of
interests in certain general partner entities, past tender offers by Insignia
affiliates to acquire limited partnership units, the management of partnerships
by Insignia affiliates, as well as a recently announced agreement between
Insignia and AIMCO.  The complaint seeks monetary damages and equitable relief,
including judicial dissolution of the Partnership.  The Managing General Partner
was only recently served with the complaint, which it believes to be without
merit, and intends to vigorously defend the action.

The Partnership is unaware of any other pending or outstanding litigation that
is not of a routine nature.  The Managing General Partner of the Partnership
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.
