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 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 March 31, 1997 and the results of operations and
cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 and
the statement of partners' capital for the three months ended
March 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 to conform to
the current year's presentation.
No significant events have occurred subsequent to fiscal year
1996 and no material contingencies exist, which require
disclosure in this interim report per Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01,
Paragraph (a)(5).
Part I, Item 2 . Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At March 31, 1997, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents
of $2,489,801, which were invested in unaffiliated money market
funds, compared with $2,314,876 at December 31, 1996. The
increase is attributable to cash provided by operating activities
exceeding cash used for distributions and additions to real
estate. The Partnership expects sufficient cash to be generated
from operations to meet its current operating expenses.
The Partnership had signed a contract, dated September 26, 1996,
to sell River Hill Apartments. On November 8, 1996, the
prospective buyer executed its right to terminate the purchase
agreement during the due diligence period. Subsequently, the
Partnership resumed marketing the property for sale and signed a
contract dated January 24, 1997 to sell the property to an
unaffiliated institutional investor. However, on March 17, 1997,
the General Partners opted to allow the prospective buyer to
exercise its right to terminate the purchase agreement. The
General Partners have since resumed marketing River Hill
Apartments for sale. Accordingly, River Hill Apartments was
reclassified on the consolidated balance sheet as "Property held
for disposition" at its net book value.
The General Partners declared a cash distribution of $3.75 per
Unit for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 which will be paid to
investors on or about May 15, 1997. The level of future
distributions will be evaluated on a quarterly basis and will
depend on the Partnership's operating results and future cash
needs.
Given the performance of the Partnership's properties, and the
improvement in the real estate capital markets which has
increased demand by potential buyers, the General Partners have
determined that it is in the best interest of the Partnership to
attempt to sell the remaining properties in an orderly manner
over the next few years. Assuming these efforts are successful,
the General Partners expect to distribute the sales proceeds and
subsequently dissolve the Partnership in 1998 or 1999. However,
meeting this objective will be dependent upon a variety of
factors, many of which are not within the Partnership's control.
Consequently, there can be no assurance that any specific
property or all the properties can be sold, that particular
prices will be achieved, or that all the properties can be sold
within this time frame.
Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased from $108,269 at
December 31, 1996 to $273,268 at March 31, 1997 primarily as a
result of accruals for real estate taxes for all four properties.
Results of Operations
Partnership operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997,
resulted in net income of $349,408, compared with net income of
$215,951 in the corresponding period in 1996. The increase is
primarily attributable to higher rental income at three of the
four properties and lower depreciation expense due to the
reclassification of the River Hill property as property held for
disposition. Net cash provided by operating activities was
$712,968 for the three months ended March 31, 1997, compared with
$617,902 for the corresponding period in 1996. The increase was
primarily due to the increase in net income discussed above, and
an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses.
Rental income for the three months ended March 31, 1997 was
$1,207,761 compared with $1,181,149 in the corresponding period
in 1996. The increase reflects higher rental revenues at Pelican
Landing, River Hill and Village at the Foothills II. At
Shadowood Village, rental income decreased slightly due to a
decrease in average occupancy.
Property operating expenses for the first quarter of 1997
remained largely unchanged from a year earlier as lower rental
administrative expense at Pelican Landing and lower repairs and
maintenance expense at River Hill were offset by higher utilities
expense at Shadowood Village. General and administrative
expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1997 were $58,149,
compared to $48,275 for the same period in 1996. During the 1997
period, certain expenses incurred by an unaffiliated third party
service provider in servicing the Partnership, which were
voluntarily absorbed by affiliates of RI 3-4 Real Estate
Services, Inc. in prior periods, were reimbursed to RI 3-4 Real
Estate Services, Inc. and its affiliates.
During the first three months of 1997 and 1996, average occupancy
levels at each of the properties were as follows:
Property 1997 1996
Pelican Landing 98% 98%
River Hill Apartments 96% 95%
Shadowood Village 93% 95%
Village at the Foothills II94% 95%
