ITEM 1.   BUSINESS
          --------

     Capital Realty Investors-III Limited Partnership (the Partnership) is a
limited partnership which was formed under the Maryland Revised Uniform Limited
Partnership Act on June 27, 1983.  On November 7, 1983, the Partnership
commenced offering 60,000 limited partnership interests through a public
offering which was managed by Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner and Smith,
Incorporated.  The Partnership closed the offering in January 1984 when it
became fully subscribed.

     The General Partners of the Partnership are C.R.I., Inc. (CRI), which is
the Managing General Partner, and current and former shareholders of CRI. 
Services for the Partnership are performed by CRI, as the Partnership has no
employees of its own.

     The Partnership was formed to invest in real estate, which is the
Partnership's principal business activity, by acquiring and holding a limited
partnership interest in limited partnerships (Local Partnerships).  As of
December 31, 1995, the Partnership has invested in thirty-five Local
Partnerships.  Each of these Local Partnerships owns or owned a federal or state
government-assisted or conventionally financed apartment complex, which provides
housing principally to the elderly and/or to individuals and families of low or
moderate income.  The original objectives of these investments, not necessarily
in order of importance, were to:

     (1)  preserve and protect the Partnership's capital;
     (2)  provide, during the early years of the Partnership's operations,
          current tax benefits to the partners in the form of tax losses which
          the partners may use to offset income from other sources;
     (3)  provide capital appreciation through increases in the value of the
          Partnership's investments and increased equity through periodic
          payments on the indebtedness on the apartment complexes; and
     (4)  provide cash distributions from sale or refinancing of the
          Partnership's investments and, on a limited basis, from rental
          operations.

See Part II, Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations, for a discussion of factors affecting the original
investment objectives.

     The Local Partnerships in which the Partnership has invested were organized
by private developers who acquired the sites, or options thereon, applied for
applicable mortgage insurance and/or subsidies, and remain as the local general
partners in the Local Partnerships.  The Partnership became the principal
limited partner in twenty-nine of these Local Partnerships pursuant to
negotiations with these developers who act as the local general partners. 
However, in the event of non-compliance with the Local Partnerships' partnership
agreements, the local general partner may be removed and replaced with another
local general partner or with an affiliate of the Partnership's Managing General
Partner.  As a limited partner, the Partnership's legal liability for
obligations of the Local Partnership is limited to its investment.  In six Local
Partnerships, the Partnership has invested as a limited partner in intermediary
partnerships which, in turn, have invested in the Local Partnerships. An
affiliate of the Managing General Partner of the Partnership is also a general
partner of the twenty-nine Local Partnerships and the six intermediary
partnerships. In most cases, the local general partners of the Local Partnership
retain responsibility for developing, constructing, maintaining, operating and
managing the project.  Additionally, the local general partners and affiliates
of the Managing General Partner may operate other apartment complexes which may

be in competition for eligible tenants with the Local Partnerships' apartment
complexes.

     Although each of the Local Partnerships in which the Partnership has
invested owns an apartment complex which must compete in the market place for
tenants, interest subsidies and/or rent supplements from governmental agencies
generally make it possible to offer certain of these dwelling units to eligible
tenants at a cost significantly below the market rate for comparable
conventionally financed dwelling units. Based on available data, the General
Partners believe there to be no material risk of market competition in the
operations of the apartment complexes described below which would adversely
impact the Partnership, except in specific circumstances as described in Part
II, Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.

     The following is a schedule of the apartment complexes owned by Local
Partnerships in which the Partnership has an investment:

(1)  All properties are multifamily housing complexes.  No single
     tenant/resident rents 10% or more of the rentable square footage. 
     Residential leases are typically one year or less in length, with varying
     expiration dates, and substantially all rentable space is for residential
     purposes.

(2)  The amounts provided are the balances of first mortgage loans payable of
     the Local Partnerships as of December 31, 1995.

(3)  The totals for the percentage of units occupied and the average effective
     annual rental per unit are based on a simple average.

     (a)  It is not anticipated that there will be any market for resale of
          interests in the Partnership.  As a result, investors may be unable to
          sell or otherwise dispose of their interests in the Partnership.

     (b)  As of March 8, 1996 there were approximately 5,600 registered holders
          of limited partner interests in the Partnership.

     (c)  No distributions were declared or paid by the Partnership in 1995 or
          1994.  The Partnership expects to pay a cash distribution of
          approximately $9.65 per unit of Additional Limited Partnership
          Interest, all of which is a return of capital on a Generally Accepted
          Accounting Principles basis, on or before April 30, 1996, to investors
          of record as of February 2, 1996.  The distribution is a result of the
          disposition of the Partnership's interest in the Park Heights Towers
          Limited Partnership.  The Partnership received distributions of
          $2,142,665 and $4,716,303 from the Local Partnerships during 1995 and
          1994, respectively.  Some of the Local Partnerships operate under
          restrictions imposed by the pertinent government agencies that limit
          the cash return available to the Partnership.

ITEM 7.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
          -------------------------------------------------
               CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
               -----------------------------------

                                     General
                                     -------

     The Partnership has invested, through Local Partnerships, primarily in
federal or state government-assisted apartment complexes intended to provide
housing to low and moderate income tenants.  In conjunction with such government
assistance, which includes federal and/or state financing at below-market
interest rates and rental subsidies, the Local Partnerships agreed to regulatory
limitations on (i) cash distributions, (ii) use of the properties and (iii) sale
or refinancing.  These limitations typically were designed to remain in place
for the life of the mortgage.

     The original investment objectives of the Partnership primarily were to
deliver tax benefits, as well as cash proceeds upon disposition of the
properties, through the Partnership's investment in local limited partnerships.
Only limited annual cash distributions from property operations were projected
because of the regulatory restrictions on cash distributions from the
properties.

     The original investment objectives of the Partnership have been affected by
the Tax Reform Act of 1986, which virtually eliminated many of the incentives
for the new construction of or the sale of existing low income housing
properties by limiting the use of passive loss deductions.  Therefore, the
Managing General Partner continues to concentrate on transferring the source of
investment yield from tax benefits to cash flow wherever possible and
potentially enhancing the ability of the Partnership to share in the appreciated
value of the properties.

     The acquisition of interests in certain Local Partnerships resulted in
purchase money note obligations of the Partnership.  The purchase money notes
are nonrecourse obligations of the Partnership which typically mature fifteen
years from the dates of acquisition of the interests in particular Local
Partnerships.

     The Managing General Partner has been working to develop a strategy to sell
certain properties by utilizing opportunities presented by federal affordable
housing legislation, favorable financing terms and preservation incentives
available to non-profit purchasers.  The Managing General Partner intends to
utilize part or all of the Partnership's net proceeds (after 50% distribution to
limited partners) received from the sales of properties to fund reserves for
paying at maturity, prepaying or purchasing prior to maturity, at a discount
where possible, currently outstanding purchase money notes.  The Managing
General Partner believes that this represents an opportunity to reduce the
Partnership's long-term obligations.

     Many of the rental properties owned by the Local Partnerships have
mortgages which are federally insured under Section 236 or Section 221(d)(3) of
the National Housing Act, as amended.  These properties may be eligible for sale
or refinancing, subject to numerous requirements, under the Low Income Housing
Preservation and Resident Homeownership Act of 1990 (LIHPRHA).  This program may
provide incentives to owners of qualifying multifamily housing who commit to
permanently maintain their properties as low to moderate income housing. 
Incentives available under LIHPRHA include selling the property to qualified
buyers or obtaining supplemental financing for the property.  As of March 8,
1996, members of Congress were recommending substantial changes to the LIHPRHA

program ranging from the elimination of the program to the redesigning of the
program.  Substantial uncertainty exists as to whether any properties which have
already filed the notice of intent to participate under LIHPRHA will qualify
under a redesigned program or as to whether the program will continue at all. 

     Some of the rental properties owned by the Local Partnerships are financed
by state housing agencies.  The Managing General Partner has been working to
develop a strategy to sell or refinance certain properties by utilizing programs
developed by these agencies.  These programs may include opportunities to sell
the property to a qualifying purchaser who would agree to maintain the property
as low to moderate income housing in perpetuity, or may include opportunities to
refinance the property through supplemental financing.  The Managing General
Partner continues to monitor these programs to ascertain whether the properties
would qualify within the parameters of the programs and whether the programs
would provide an appropriate economic benefit to the limited partners of the
Partnership.

     Many of the rental properties owned by the Local Partnerships are dependent
on the receipt of housing assistance payments guaranteed by contract under the
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Section 8 program.  The level
of funding for the Section 8 program, and HUD-insured multifamily housing in
general, is dependent upon the continuation of appropriations approved by
Congress for subsidy payments.  In the event that the rental subsidy programs
are reduced or phased out, there is no assurance that the rental properties will
be able to maintain the occupancy levels necessary to pay debt-service and
operating costs or that the rents necessary to pay debt- service and operating
costs will be competitive with rents for comparable units in the rental
properties' market areas.  While the Managing General Partner has no reason to
believe that HUD will not honor its obligations under the contracts, some
uncertainty exists in light of the recent Congressional scrutiny of
appropriations for HUD programs.

     In 1990, CRI, as Managing General Partner of the Partnership and various
other entities, subcontracted certain property-level asset management functions
for certain properties to Capital Management Strategies, Inc. (CMS).  Among
these properties were properties owned by certain of the Local Partnerships in
which the Partnership invested.  CMS was formed by Martin C. Schwartzberg, a
nominal general partner of the Partnership and a former stockholder of CRI, when
he cashed out of CRI and its related businesses as of January 1, 1990.  Mr.
Schwartzberg agreed not to act as a general partner with respect to any of the
CRI-sponsored partnerships, including this Partnership, and has not done so
since that time.  In late 1995, a dispute arose between CRI and CMS over the
funding level of the 1996 contract for CMS.  On November 9, 1995, CRI filed a
complaint against CMS to determine the proper amount of fees to be paid in 1996
under the asset management agreement.  CMS answered on January 10, 1996, but
asserted no counterclaims.

     Thereafter, Mr. Schwartzberg launched a hostile consent solicitation to be
designated as managing general partner of approximately 125 private partnerships
sponsored by CRI.  On January 18, 1996, Mr. Schwartzberg and CMS filed a
complaint in the Circuit Court of Montgomery County, Maryland (the Circuit
Court), against CRI and Messrs. Dockser and Willoughby (who are general partners
of the Partnership) alleging, among other things, that CRI and Messrs. Dockser
and Willoughby have breached the asset management agreement pursuant to which
Mr. Schwartzberg's company, CMS, agreed to perform limited functions related to

property-level issues for a portion of CRI's subsidized housing portfolio
(including some of the properties in which the Partnership invested), by
reducing the proposed budget for 1996.  The Partnership is not named as a
defendant in this action.  Messrs. Dockser and Willoughby have entered an answer
denying all of Mr. Schwartzberg's claims.  Messrs. Dockser and Willoughby have
publicly responded that Mr. Schwartzberg's suit is motivated by his budget
dispute with CRI and personal animosity.  On February 6, 1996, CRI terminated
the CMS contract for cause.  Mr. Schwartzberg and CMS responded by filing a
motion for injunctive relief in the Circuit Court, asking the court to enjoin
CRI from terminating the contract.  In a ruling issued on February 12, 1996, the
Circuit Court, among other things, refused to grant the injunction requested by
CMS.  A hearing in this case is scheduled for April 29, 1996.  On February 12,
1996, the Circuit Court also issued a memorandum opinion and order enjoining CMS
and Mr. Schwartzberg from disclosing information made confidential under the
asset management agreement.

     On February 1, 1996 and February 16, 1996, Mr. Schwartzberg sent letters to
the Partnership requesting investor lists and other forms of investor
information.  On February 5, 1996, the Partnership, acting through its managing
general partner, CRI, denied Mr. Schwartzberg's request.  On February 20, 1996,
counsel for the Partnership responded to Mr. Schwartzberg's second request,
denying that Mr. Schwartzberg had standing or a proper purpose for requesting
the investor lists.  In view of Mr. Schwartzberg's solicitation efforts against
other CRI-sponsored partnerships, CRI anticipates that litigation may arise from
this request.

                          Financial Condition/Liquidity
                          -----------------------------

     As of March 8, 1996, the Partnership had approximately 5,600 investors who
subscribed to a total of 60,000 units of limited partnership interests in the
original amount of $60,000,000.  As of December 31, 1995, the Partnership has
investments in thirty-five Local Partnerships.  The Partnership's liquidity,
with unrestricted cash resources of $2,897,013 as of December 31, 1995, along
with anticipated future cash distributions from the Local Partnerships, is
expected to meet its current and anticipated operating cash needs.  In
connection with the refinancing of the respective first-mortgage loans on the
Village Squire I & II and Village Squire III Local Partnerships on March 1,
1996, as discussed below, the Partnership received an aggregate amount of
approximately $8.3 million from the Local Partnerships. The Partnership used
these additional funds along with approximately $560,000 in existing Partnership
cash resources to retire the outstanding purchase money note obligations
relating to Village Squire I & II and Village Squire III which matured on March
1, 1996, as discussed below.  Other than the above-described purchase money note
pay-offs, as of March 8, 1996, there are no material commitments for capital
expenditures.  Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures
About Fair Value of Financial Instruments" (SFAS 107), requires the disclosure
of fair value information about financial instruments for which it is
practicable to estimate that value.  The Partnership implemented SFAS 107 in
1995, and has determined that the carrying amount of its cash and cash
equivalents approximates fair value.

     During 1995, 1994 and 1993, the Partnership received cash distributions of
$2,142,665, $4,716,303 and $1,613,001, respectively, from the Local
Partnerships.

     As of December 31, 1995, the Partnership's obligations with respect to its
investments in Local Partnerships, in the form of purchase money notes of
$36,062,896 (exclusive of unamortized discount on purchase money notes of
$11,879,234) plus accrued interest of $45,508,080 are payable upon the earliest
of:  (1) sale or refinancing of the respective Local Partnership's rental
property; (2) payment in full of the respective Local Partnership's permanent
loan; or (3) maturity.  Purchase money notes in an aggregate principal amount of
$3,861,070 matured on January 1, 1996, as discussed below.  Purchase money notes
in an aggregate principal amount of $6,100,000 matured and were paid off on
March 1, 1996, as discussed below.  Purchase money notes in an aggregate
principal amount of $2,100,000 mature on May 1, 1996, as discussed below.  The
remaining purchase money notes mature from 1997 to 2015.  The purchase money
notes are generally secured by the Partnership's interest in the respective
Local Partnership.   There is no assurance that the underlying properties will
have sufficient appreciation and equity to enable the Partnership to pay the
purchase money notes' principal and accrued interest when due.  If a purchase
money note is not paid in accordance with its terms, the Partnership will either
have to renegotiate the terms of repayment or risk losing its partnership
interest in the Local Partnership.  The Managing General Partner is continuing
to investigate possible alternatives to reduce the Partnership's long-term debt
obligations.  These alternatives include, among others, retaining the cash
available for distribution to meet the purchase money note requirements, buying
out certain purchase money notes at a discounted price, extending the due dates
of certain purchase money notes, or refinancing the respective properties'
underlying debt and using the Partnership's share of the proceeds to pay off or
buy down certain purchase money note obligations. 

     As of December 31, 1995, the Partnership's obligations with respect to its
investment in Local Partnerships included $119,544 due to local general
partners, plus accrued interest on these obligations of $33,976.

     Purchase money notes, plus accrued interest, relating to the following
properties have matured or will mature in 1996:

     that refinancings under the LIHPRHA program may no longer be feasible, and
     asked the Local Managing General Partner to pursue a sale of the properties
     under the LIHPRHA program.  On February 20, 1996, the local managing
     general partner filed a notice with HUD to amend the plan of action under
     the LIHPRHA program requesting a sale of the properties.  The Local
     Managing General Partner is also the noteholder of the related purchase
     money notes.  The Partnership defaulted on its purchase money notes
     relating to Briar Crest I, Briar Crest II, Briar Hills and Indian Hills on
     January 1, 1996 when the notes matured and were not paid.  The default
     amounts included principal and accrued interest as follows:

     The Managing General Partner has offered to extend the maturity dates to
     coincide with the possible future sale of the properties under the LIHPRHA
     program.  No agreement has been reached as of March 8, 1996.  There can be
     no assurance that an agreement will be reached, or that the eventual sale
     of the properties will occur.   As such, there is no assurance that the
     Partnership will be able to retain its interest in the Local Partnerships.

(B)  On January 5, 1994 the local general partners of Park Heights Towers
     Limited Partnership filed a notice of intent to participate under the
     LIHPRHA program.  On February 2, 1996, the local general partners of Park
     Heights Towers sold the property to a non-profit entity.  The sale of the
     property generated net proceeds to the Partnership of $1.27 million.  The
     proceeds were net of $2.135 million used to retire, at a discount, the
     Partnership's purchase money note obligation with respect to the property. 
     The sale provided proceeds to the Partnership in excess of its investment
     in the Local Partnership, and will result in a net financial statement gain
     and a net tax gain in 1996 of approximately $5.1 million and $7.0 million,
     respectively.  The Partnership intends to distribute approximately $579,000
     (or approximately $9.65 per Additional Limited Partner unit) to the
     Additional Limited Partners as return of capital on a Generally Accepted
     Accounting Principles basis by April 30, 1996.  The Managing General
     Partner intends to retain all of the Partnership's remaining undistributed
     net sale proceeds for the possible repayment, prepayment or purchase of the
     outstanding purchase money notes of other Local Partnerships.  The General
     Partner and/or its affiliates earned net fees of $117,028 for its services
     relating to the sale of the property.  As of March 8, 1996, these fees have
     not been paid.

(C)  On March 1, 1996, the local general partner of Village Squire I & II and
     Village Squire III refinanced the respective properties' existing first
     mortgages.  On March 1, 1996, proceeds provided to the Partnership from the
     properties' mortgage refinancings along with approximately $560,000 of
     existing Partnership cash resources were used to pay off the related
     purchase money note obligations.

(D)  The Managing General Partner is currently negotiating with the noteholders
     to extend the Cedar Valley purchase money note due dates to coincide with a
     potential future LIHPHRA sale.  There is no assurance that any agreement
     will be reached with the noteholders or that a sale of the property will
     eventually occur.

(E)  The uncertainty about the continued ownership of the Partnership's interest
     in the Briar Crest I, Briar Crest II, Briar Hills, Indian Hills and Cedar
     Valley Local Partnerships does not impact the Partnership's financial
     condition because the related purchase money notes are nonrecourse and
     secured solely by the Partnership's interest in the respective Local
     Partnerships.  Should the investment in any or all of the above listed
     Local Partnership's, excluding Indian Hills, not produce sufficient value
     to satisfy the related purchase money notes, the Partnership's exposure to
     loss is limited since the amount of the nonrecourse indebtedness exceeds
     the carrying amount of the investment in and advances to the Local
     Partnerships.  Thus, even a complete loss of these investments would not
     have a material impact on the operations of the Partnership.  However,
     should the Partnership be unable to retain its interest in these Local
     Partnerships, the investments in Local Partnerships would be reduced by the
     Partnership's basis in these Local Partnerships, which at December 31,
     1995, was approximately 4% of the total investment in Local Partnerships. 
     In the case of Indian Hills, the carrying amount of the investment exceeds
     the amount of nonrecourse indebtedness, however, the Partnership's exposure
     to loss is limited to this excess, which at December 31, 1995 was
     approximately $850,000.

     SFAS 107 requires the disclosure of fair value information about financial
instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The Partnership
has determined that it is not practicable to estimate the fair value of the
purchase money notes, either individually or in the aggregate, due to:  (1) the
lack of an active market for this type of financial instrument, (2) the variable
nature of purchase money note interest payments as a result of fluctuating cash
flow distributions received from the related Local Partnerships, and (3) the
excessive costs associated with an independent appraisal of the purchase money
notes.

     The Partnership closely monitors its cash flow and liquidity position in an
effort to ensure that sufficient cash is available for operating requirements. 
In 1995, the receipt of distributions from Local Partnerships was adequate to
support operating cash requirements.

     In 1994, the receipt of distributions from Local Partnerships was adequate
to support operating cash requirements.  Cash and cash equivalents decreased in
1994 from 1993 primarily due to the pay-off of the Fifth Lakewood note payable,
as well as the principal payment on the new Arboretum Village purchase money
note payable, as discussed below.

                              ---------------------

     The Partnership's net loss increased in 1995 from 1994 primarily due to the
extraordinary gain on early extinguishment of the Arboretum Village purchase
money note in 1994, as discussed below.  Contributing to the increase in net
loss was a decrease in income from Local Partnerships, resulting principally
from the receipt in 1994 of a distribution in excess of the Partnership's basis,
as a result of the refinancing of the Arboretum Village first mortgage, as
discussed below.  Also contributing to the increase in net loss was an increase
in interest expense as a result of the amortization of imputed interest, as well
as a decrease in interest income primarily due to the receipt in 1994 of the
outstanding receivable and accrued interest from Arbor Club, as discussed below.

     The Partnership's net loss decreased in 1994 from 1993 primarily due to the
extraordinary gain on early extinguishment of debt, as discussed below. 
Contributing to the decrease in net loss was an increase in income from the
Local Partnerships, resulting principally from the receipt of a distribution in
excess of the Partnership's basis, as discussed below, as well as an increase in
rental revenues at five properties.  The increase in rental revenue at one
property related to a retroactive rent adjustment received in 1994, while the
increases in rental revenue at the other four properties were as a result of
improved operations.  Also contributing to the decrease in net loss was a
decrease in interest expense due to the pay-off of the Arboretum Village
purchase money note in the second quarter of 1994, as well as a decrease in
proxy solicitation costs relating to the proxy solicitation submitted to
investors during the first quarter of 1993.

     The purchase money notes originated from 1983 through 1985. When they were
issued, the market interest rate was approximately 15%, while the stated
interest rates ranged from 9% to 12%. The notes were discounted as required by
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, and a simple/compound method was used
at the stated interest rate for tax purposes, and the compound method at the
market interest rate was used for book purposes. As the book interest is being
compounded, the interest expense for book purposes will eventually surpass the
interest expense for tax purposes, thereby reducing the discount and increasing
the interest expense.  In fiscal year 1995, all properties with purchase money
notes had book interest which exceeded the tax interest.  This increase in
interest expense and the resulting reduction in the discount is expected to
increase in future years.

     For financial reporting purposes, the Partnership, as a limited partner in
the Local Partnerships, does not record losses from the Local Partnerships in
excess of its investment to the extent that the Partnership has no further
obligation to advance funds or provide financing to the Local Partnerships.  As
a result, the Partnership's share of income from Local Partnerships for the
years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 did not include losses of $822,642,
$912,870 and $644,265, respectively.  The Partnership's net loss recognized from
the Local Partnerships is generally expected to decrease in subsequent years as
the Partnership's investments in the Local Partnerships are reduced to zero. 
Accordingly, excludable losses are generally expected to increase. Distributions
of $287,289, $2,253,433 and $239,053 received from six, seven and six Local
Partnerships during 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively, were offset against the
respective years' recorded losses because those amounts were in excess of the
Partnership's investment.

     In September 1995, HUD sold the mortgage of New Fifth Lakewood Associates
Limited Partnership (Walden Apartments) to a new mortgagee.  The new mortgagee
will now service the loan and Walden Apartments will no longer be subject to HUD
regulatory requirements.

     The Partnership purchased the Walden Apartments purchase money note for
$2,450,000 (the original principal was $4,000,000) at a public auction on
December 11, 1989, and the $4,000,000 purchase money note was retired. The
purchase price was financed through the payment of $350,000 cash from the
Partnership and a $2,100,000 loan from Bank One (formerly First Illinois Bank of
Evanston). The new note had a maturity date of July 1, 1994 and bore interest at
7.5%.  The Partnership paid-off the new note in full on June 30, 1994.  Interest
expense on the note payable was $80,063 and $159,687 for the years ended
December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively.  No cash distributions were received
from Walden Apartments during 1995, 1994 or 1993.

     The Arbor Club was involved in litigation with the former general
contractor for the Arbor Club complex and its surety company.  During 1990, the
litigation was settled for $2,235,000, which represented the original settlement
amount plus recovery of certain legal costs incurred by the Arbor Limited
Partnership.  Pursuant to an agreement with the local general partner, the
Partnership was to receive $350,928 as follows: $70,928 in cash, which was
received upon execution of the agreement and $280,000 payable in four annual
installments with interest at 9% beginning December 1992.  The $70,000
installment due in December 1992 plus accrued interest of $6,300 was paid as
scheduled and the December 1993 payment of $70,000 plus accrued interest of
$12,600 was received in January 1994.  In addition, in February 1994, the
Partnership received the remaining principal amount of $140,000 plus accrued
interest of $27,335, and the security for such payments was released.

     In September 1994, the Partnership modified purchase money notes totaling
$1,365,000 relating to Bartley Manor, Village Square and Village Green.  In
accordance with the modification agreement, the Partnership paid an aggregate of
$100,000 in accrued interest, and the maturity dates for the notes were extended
from February 1994 to July 1, 1997.

     On May 5, 1994, the local general partner of Arboretum Village Limited
Partnership (Arboretum Village) refinanced the property's first mortgage.  The
refinancing provided proceeds of $3,387,382 to the Partnership with which the
Partnership acquired, at a discount, the existing purchase money note in the
original principal amount of $4,106,944, which resulted in an extraordinary gain
from extinguishment of debt of $3,052,664.  In addition, proceeds to the
Partnership relating to the refinancing of $1,987,969 were in excess of the
Partnership's investment and were included in share of income from Local
Partnerships.  In connection with the refinancing, the Partnership executed a
new purchase money note to the local general partner in the principal amount of
$1,050,000, which was a non-cash transaction.  The new purchase money note bears
simple interest at the same rate (9.73%) and matures at the same time (May 2001)
as the new first mortgage.  In August 1994, the Partnership made a $300,000
payment towards the principal balance of the purchase money note.  Accrued
interest on the purchase money note was $71,753 and $56,180 as of December 31,
1995 and 1994, respectively.

     The local general partners of Kapetan Associates Limited Partnership
(Congress Plaza) had been negotiating a sale for Congress Plaza.  Because

                                    ---------

     Inflation allows for increases in rental rates, usually offsetting any
higher operating and replacement costs.  Furthermore, inflation generally does
not impact the fixed rate long-term financing under which real property
investments were purchased.  Future inflation could allow for appreciated values
of the Local Partnerships' properties over an extended period of time as rental
revenue and replacement values gradually increase.

                               -------------------

To the Partners
Capital Realty Investors-III
  Limited Partnership

     We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Capital Realty
Investors-III Limited Partnership as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
related consolidated statements of operations, changes in partners' deficit and
cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993.  These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. 
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits.  We did not audit the financial statements for thirty-three of
the Local Partnerships in 1995, 1994 and 1993, which are accounted for as
described in Note 1d.  The statements of the remaining Local Partnerships were
audited by other auditors whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and
our opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for
these Local Partnerships, is based solely upon the reports of the other
auditors.

     We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. 
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion, based upon our audits and the reports of other auditors,
the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the consolidated financial position of Capital Realty Investors-III
Limited Partnership as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the consolidated
results of its operations, changes in partners' deficit and cash flows for the
years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     a.   Organization
          ------------

          Capital Realty Investors-III Limited Partnership (the Partnership) was
     formed under the Maryland Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act on June
     27, 1983 and shall continue until December 31, 2037, unless sooner
     dissolved in accordance with the Partnership Agreement.  The Partnership
     was formed to invest in real estate by acquiring and holding a limited
     partner interest in limited partnerships (Local Partnerships) which own and
     operate federal or state government-assisted or conventionally financed
     apartment complexes located throughout the United States, which provide
     housing principally to the elderly and/or to individuals and families of
     low to moderate income.
 
          The General Partners of the Partnership are C.R.I., Inc. (CRI), which
     is the Managing General Partner, and current and former shareholders of
     CRI. The Initial Limited Partner is Rockville Pike Associates Limited
     Partnership-III, a limited partnership which includes certain officers and 
     former employees of CRI or its affiliates. The Special Limited Partner is
     Two Broadway Associates II, a limited partnership which includes an
     affiliate and employees of Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith,
     Incorporated.

          The Partnership sold 60,000 units at $1,000 per unit of Additional
     Limited Partner Interest through a public offering.  The offering period
     was terminated in January 1984.

     b.   Method of accounting
          --------------------

          The financial statements of the Partnership are prepared on the
     accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted
     accounting principles.

     c.   Principles of consolidation
          ---------------------------

          These financial statements include the accounts of six intermediary
     limited partnerships, which have invested in six Local Partnerships which
     own and operate government assisted or conventionally financed apartment
     complexes.

     d.   Investments in partnerships
          ---------------------------

          The investments in Local Partnerships (see Note 2) are accounted for
     by the equity method because the Partnership is a limited partner in the
     Local Partnerships.  Under this method, the carrying amount of the
     investments in Local Partnerships is (i) reduced by distributions received
     and (ii) increased or reduced by the Partnership's share of earnings or
     losses, respectively, of the Local Partnerships.  As of December 31, 1995
     and 1994, the Partnership's share of cumulative losses of eleven and eight
     of the Local Partnerships exceeds the amount of the Partnership's
     investments in these Local Partnerships by $11,371,859 and $10,769,501,
     respectively. Since the Partnership has no further obligation to advance
     funds or provide financing to these Local Partnerships, the excess losses

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

     have not been reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial
     statements. During 1995 and 1994, cash distributions of $287,289 and
     $2,253,433, respectively, have been received from the Local Partnerships
     for which the Partnership's carrying value is zero. These distributions are
     offset against the Partnership's share of loss from partnerships.

          Costs incurred in connection with acquiring these investments have
     been capitalized and are being amortized using the straight-line method
     over the estimated useful lives of the properties owned by the Local
     Partnerships.

     e.   Fair value of financial instruments
          -----------------------------------

          Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures
     About Fair Value of Financial Instruments" (SFAS 107), requires the
     disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments for which
     it is practicable to estimate that value.  The Partnership implemented SFAS
     107 in 1995.

     f.   Cash and cash equivalents
          -------------------------
 
          Cash and cash equivalents consist of all money market funds, time and
     demand deposits, repurchase agreement and commercial paper with original
     maturities of three months or less.  The Partnership has determined that
     the carrying amount of its cash and cash equivalents approximates fair
     value.
 
     g.   Offering costs
          --------------

          The Partnership incurred certain costs in connection with the offering
     and selling of limited partnership interests.  Such costs were recorded as
     a reduction of partners' capital when incurred.

     h.   Income taxes
          ------------

          For federal and state income tax purposes, each partner reports on his
     or her personal income tax return his or her share of the Partnership's
     income or loss as determined for tax purposes.  Accordingly, no provision
     (credit) has been made for income taxes in these consolidated financial
     statements.

     i.   Use of estimates
          ----------------

          In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally
     accepted accounting principles, the Partnership is required to make
     estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
     liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
     date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the
     reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     j.   Asset held for sale
          -------------------

          On February 2, 1996, the local general partners of Park Heights Towers
     Limited Partnership sold the property to a non-profit entity.  Accordingly,
     the Partnership's investment in this Local Partnership was classified as an
     investment held for sale on the balance sheet as of December 31, 1995. 
     Assets held for sale are not recorded in excess of their estimated net
     realizable value.

     k.   Reclassifications
          -----------------

          Certain amounts in the 1994 financial statements have been
     reclassified to conform to the 1995 presentation.

2.   INVESTMENTS IN PARTNERSHIPS

     a.   Due on investments in partnerships
          ----------------------------------

          As of December 31, 1995 and 1994, the Partnership had acquired limited
     partnership interests in thirty-five Local Partnerships, which were
     organized to develop, construct, own, maintain and operate rental apartment
     complexes which provide housing principally to the elderly and/or to
     individuals and families of low or moderate income.  The remaining
     principal amounts due on investments in the Local Partnerships as of
     December 31, 1995 and 1994 are as follows:

          The amounts due to local general partners will be paid upon the
     occurrence of certain specific events as outlined in the respective Local
     Partnership's partnership agreements.

          The purchase money notes have stated interest rates ranging from 9% to
     12%, certain of which are compounded annually.  Unamortized discounts are

     based upon an imputed interest rate of 15% to reflect market interest rates
     which prevailed when the notes were issued.  The resulting discount has
     been recorded by the Partnership and is being amortized to interest expense
     over the life of the respective purchase money notes using the effective
     interest method.  The purchase money notes are payable upon the earliest
     of:  (1) sale or refinancing of the respective Local Partnership's rental
     property; (2) payment in full of the respective Local Partnership's
     permanent loan; or (3) maturity.  Purchase money notes in an aggregate
     principal amount of $3,861,070 matured on January 1, 1996, as discussed
     below.  Purchase money notes in an aggregate principal amount of $6,100,000
     matured and were paid off on March 1, 1996, as discussed below.  Purchase
     money notes in an aggregate principal amount of $2,100,000 mature on May 1,
     1996, as discussed below.  The remaining purchase money notes mature from
     1997 to 2015.  The purchase money notes are generally secured by the
     Partnership's interest in the respective Local Partnership.  There is no
     assurance that the underlying properties will have sufficient appreciation
     and equity to enable the Partnership to pay the purchase money notes'
     principal and accrued interest when due.  If a purchase money note is not
     paid in accordance with its terms, the Partnership will either have to
     renegotiate the terms of repayment or risk losing its partnership interest
     in the Local Partnership.  The Managing General Partner is continuing to
     investigate possible alternatives to reduce the Partnership's long-term
     debt obligations.  These alternatives include, among others, retaining the
     cash available for distribution to meet the purchase money note
     requirements, buying out certain purchase money notes at a discounted
     price, extending the due dates of certain purchase money notes, or
     refinancing the respective properties' underlying debt and using the
     Partnership's share of the proceeds to pay off or buy down certain purchase
     money note obligations. 

          Interest expense on the unpaid purchase price and the Partnership's
     purchase money notes for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993
     was $9,462,914, $8,322,071 and $8,534,933, respectively. The accrued
     interest on the purchase money notes of $45,508,080 and $42,065,288, as of
     December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, is due on the respective maturity
     dates of the purchase money notes or earlier if the Local Partnerships have
     distributable net cash flow, as defined in the relevant Local Partnership
     agreements.

          Purchase money notes, plus accrued interest, relating to the following
     properties have matured or will mature in 1996:

     (A)  On June 15, 1994, the Local Managing General Partner of Briar Crest I,
          Briar Crest II, Briar Hills and Indian Hills filed a notice of intent
          to participate under the LIHPRHA program in hopes of refinancing the
          existing first mortgages of each property.  The Managing General
          Partner believes that refinancings under the LIHPRHA program may no
          longer be feasible, and asked the Local Managing General Partner to
          pursue a sale of the properties under the LIHPRHA program.  On
          February 20, 1996, the local managing general partner filed a notice
          with HUD to amend the plan of action under the LIHPRHA program
          requesting a sale of the properties.  The Local Managing General
          Partner is also the noteholder of the related purchase money notes. 
          The Partnership defaulted on its purchase money notes relating to
          Briar Crest I, Briar Crest II, Briar Hills and Indian Hills on January
          1, 1996 when the notes matured and were not paid.  The default amounts
          included principal and accrued interest as follows:

               The Managing General Partner has offered to extend the maturity
          dates to coincide with the possible future sale of the properties
          under the LIHPRHA program.  No agreement has been reached as of March
          8, 1996.  There can be no assurance that an agreement will be reached,
          or that the eventual sale of the properties will occur.   As such,
          there is no assurance that the Partnership will be able to retain its
          interest in the Local Partnerships.

     (B)  On January 5, 1994 the local general partners of Park Heights Towers
          Limited Partnership filed a notice of intent to participate under the
          LIHPRHA program.  On February 2, 1996, the local general partners of
          Park Heights Towers sold the property to a non-profit entity.  The
          sale of the property generated net proceeds to the Partnership of
          $1.27 million.  The proceeds were net of $2.135 million used to
          retire, at a discount, the Partnership's purchase money note
          obligation with respect to the property.  The sale provided proceeds
          to the Partnership in excess of its investment in the Local
          Partnership, and will result in a net financial statement gain and a
          net tax gain in 1996 of approximately $5.1 million and $7.0 million,
          respectively.  The Partnership intends to distribute approximately
          $579,000 (or approximately $9.65 per Additional Limited Partner unit)
          to the Additional Limited Partners as return of capital on a Generally
          Accepted Accounting Principles basis by April 30, 1996.  The Managing
          General Partner intends to retain all of the Partnership's remaining
          undistributed net sale proceeds for the possible repayment, prepayment
          or purchase of the outstanding purchase money notes of other Local
          Partnerships.  The General Partner and/or its affiliates earned net
          fees of $117,028 for its services relating to the sale of the
          property.  As of March 8, 1996, these fees have not been paid.

     (C)  On March 1, 1996, the local general partner of Village Squire I & II
          and Village Squire III refinanced the respective properties' existing
          first mortgages.  On March 1, 1996, proceeds provided to the
          Partnership from the properties' mortgage refinancings along with
          approximately $560,000 of existing Partnership cash resources were
          used to pay off the related purchase money note obligations.

     (D)  The Managing General Partner is currently negotiating with the
          noteholders to extend the Cedar Valley purchase money note due dates

          to coincide with a potential future LIHPHRA sale.  There is no
          assurance that any agreement will be reached with the noteholders or
          that a sale of the property will eventually occur.

     (E)  The uncertainty about the continued ownership of the Partnership's
          interest in the Briar Crest I, Briar Crest II, Briar Hills, Indian
          Hills and Cedar Valley Local Partnerships does not impact the
          Partnership's financial condition because the related purchase money
          notes are nonrecourse and secured solely by the Partnership's interest
          in the respective Local Partnerships.  Should the investment in any or
          all of the above listed Local Partnership's, excluding Indian Hills,
          not produce sufficient value to satisfy the related purchase money
          notes, the Partnership's exposure to loss is limited since the amount
          of the nonrecourse indebtedness exceeds the carrying amount of the
          investment in and advances to the Local Partnerships.  Thus, even a
          complete loss of these investments would not have a material impact on
          the operations of the Partnership.  However, should the Partnership be
          unable to retain its interest in these Local Partnerships, the
          investments in Local Partnerships would be reduced by the
          Partnership's basis in these Local Partnerships, which at December 31,
          1995, was approximately 4% of the total investment in Local
          Partnerships.  In the case of Indian Hills, the carrying amount of the
          investment exceeds the amount of nonrecourse indebtedness, however,
          the Partnership's exposure to loss is limited to this excess, which at
          December 31, 1995 was approximately $850,000.

          In September 1995, HUD sold the mortgage of New Fifth Lakewood
     Associates Limited Partnership (Walden Apartments) to a new mortgagee.  The
     new mortgagee will now service the loan and Walden Apartments will no
     longer be subject to HUD regulatory requirements.

          The Partnership purchased the Walden Apartments purchase money note
     for $2,450,000 (the original principal was $4,000,000) at a public auction
     on December 11, 1989, and the $4,000,000 purchase money note was retired. 
     The purchase price was financed through the payment of $350,000 cash from
     the Partnership and a $2,100,000 loan from Bank One (formerly First
     Illinois Bank of Evanston).  The new note had a maturity date of July 1,
     1994 and bore interest at 7.5%.  The Partnership paid-off the new note in
     full on June 30, 1994.  Interest expense on the note payable was $80,063
     and $159,687 for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
     No cash distributions were received from Walden Apartments during 1995,
     1994 and 1993.

          In September 1994, the Partnership modified purchase money notes
     totaling $1,365,000 relating to Bartley Manor, Village Square and Village
     Green.  In accordance with the modification agreement, the Partnership paid
     an aggregate of $100,000 in accrued interest, and the maturity dates for
     the notes were extended from February 1994 to July 1, 1997.

          SFAS 107 requires the disclosure of fair value information about
     financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value.
     The Partnership has determined that it is not practicable to estimate the
     fair value of the purchase money notes, either individually or in the
     aggregate, due to:  (1) the lack of an active market for this type of
     financial instrument, (2) the variable nature of purchase money note
     interest payments as a result of fluctuating cash flow distributions

     received from the related Local Partnerships, and (3) the excessive costs
     associated with an independent appraisal of the purchase money notes.

     b.   Interest in profits, losses and cash distributions
          --------------------------------------------------

          The Partnership has a 96% to 98.99% interest in profits and losses and
     cash distributions (as restricted by various federal and state housing
     agencies) of each Local Partnership.  An affiliate of the General Partners
     of the Partnership is also a general partner of each Local Partnership or
     the intermediary limited partnership which invests in the Local
     Partnership.  The Partnership received cash distributions from the rental
     operations of the Local Partnerships of $2,142,665, $4,716,303 and
     $1,613,001 during the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993,
     respectively.  As of December 31, 1995 and 1994, twenty-eight and thirty,
     respectively, of the Local Partnerships had surplus cash, as defined by
     their respective agencies, in the amounts of $2,551,821 and $2,678,525,
     respectively, which is available for distribution in accordance with their
     respective agencies' regulations.

          The cash distributions to the Partnership from the operations of the
     rental properties may be limited by Department of Housing and Urban
     Development (HUD) regulations.  Such regulations limit annual cash
     distributions to a percentage of the owner's equity investment in a rental
     property. Funds in excess of those which may be distributed to owners are
     required to be placed in a residual receipts account held by the governing
     state or federal agency for the benefit of the property.

          Upon sale, refinancing or liquidation of each Local Partnership, the
     proceeds from the sale, refinancing or liquidation shall be distributed in
     accordance with the respective provisions of each Local Partnership's
     partnership agreement.  In accordance with such provisions, the Partnership
     would receive from such proceeds its respective percentage interest of any
     remaining proceeds, after payment of (1) all debts and liabilities of the
     Local Partnership and certain other items, (2) the Partnership's capital
     contributions plus certain specified amounts as outlined in each
     partnership agreement, and (3) certain special distributions to general
     partners and related entities of the Local Partnership.

     c.   Property matters
          ----------------

          The Arbor Club was involved in litigation with the former general
     contractor for the Arbor Club complex and its surety company.  During 1990,
     the litigation was settled for $2,235,000, which represented the original
     settlement amount plus recovery of certain legal costs incurred by the
     Arbor Limited Partnership.  Pursuant to an agreement with the local general
     partner, the Partnership was to receive $350,928 as follows: $70,928 in
     cash, which was received upon execution of the agreement and $280,000
     payable in four annual installments with interest at 9% beginning December
     1992.  The $70,000 installment due in December 1992 plus accrued interest
     of $6,300 was paid as scheduled and the December 1993 payment of $70,000
     plus accrued interest of $12,600 was received in January 1994.  In
     addition, in February 1994, the Partnership received the remaining
     principal amount of $140,000 plus accrued interest of $27,335, and the
     security for such payments was released.

          On May 5, 1994, the local general partner of Arboretum Village Limited
     Partnership (Arboretum Village) refinanced the property's first mortgage. 
     The refinancing provided proceeds of $3,387,382 to the Partnership with
     which the Partnership acquired, at a discount, the existing purchase money
     note in the original principal amount of $4,106,944, which resulted in an
     extraordinary gain from extinguishment of debt of $3,052,664.  In addition,
     proceeds to the Partnership relating to the refinancing of $1,987,969 were
     in excess of the Partnership's investment and were included in share of
     income from Local Partnerships.  In connection with the refinancing, the
     Partnership executed a new purchase money note to the local general partner
     in the principal amount of $1,050,000, which was a non-cash transaction. 
     The new purchase money note bears simple interest at the same rate (9.73%)
     and matures at the same time (May 2001) as the new first mortgage.  In
     August 1994, the Partnership made a $300,000 payment towards the principal
     balance of the purchase money note.  Accrued interest on the purchase money
     note was $71,753 and $56,180 as of December 31, 1995 and 1994,
     respectively.

          The local general partners of Kapetan Associates Limited Partnership
     (Congress Plaza) had been negotiating a sale for Congress Plaza.  Because
     certain contingencies were not satisfied, the offer to purchase the
     property has expired and negotiations have ended.

          Many of the rental properties owned by the Local Partnerships have
     mortgages which are federally insured under Section 236 or Section
     221(d)(3) of the National Housing Act, as amended.  These properties may be
     eligible for sale or refinancing, subject to numerous requirements, under
     the LIHPRHA program.  This program may provide incentives to owners of
     qualifying multifamily housing who commit to permanently maintain their
     properties as low to moderate income housing.  Incentives available under
     LIHPRHA include selling the property to qualified buyers or obtaining
     supplemental financing for the property.  As of March 8, 1996, members of
     Congress were recommending substantial changes to the LIHPRHA program
     ranging from the elimination of the program to the redesigning of the
     program.  Substantial uncertainty exists as to whether any properties which
     have already filed the notice of intent to participate under LIHPRHA will
     qualify under a redesigned program or as to whether the program will
     continue at all. 

          The local general partners of the following properties have each filed
     a notice of intent to participate under the LIHPRHA program:

          There is no assurance that a sale or supplemental financing of these
     properties will occur.

          Some of the rental properties owned by the Local Partnerships are
     financed by state housing agencies.  The Managing General Partner has been
     working to develop a strategy to sell or refinance certain properties by
     utilizing programs developed by these agencies.  These programs may include
     opportunities to sell the property to a qualifying purchaser who would
     agree to maintain the property as low to moderate income housing in
     perpetuity, or may include opportunities to refinance the property through
     supplemental financing.  The Managing General Partner continues to monitor
     these programs to ascertain whether the properties would qualify within the
     parameters of the programs and whether the programs would provide an
     appropriate economic benefit to the limited partners of the Partnership.

          Many of the rental properties owned by the Local Partnerships are
     dependent on the receipt of housing assistance payments guaranteed by
     contract under the HUD Section 8 program.  The level of funding for the
     Section 8 program, and HUD-insured multifamily housing in general, is
     dependent upon the continuation of appropriations approved by Congress for
     subsidy payments.  In the event that the rental subsidy programs are
     reduced or phased out, there is no assurance that the rental properties
     will be able to maintain the occupancy levels necessary to pay debt-
     service and operating costs or that the rents necessary to pay debt-
     service and operating costs will be competitive with rents for comparable
     units in the rental properties' market areas.  While the Managing General
     Partner has no reason to believe that HUD will not honor its obligations
     under the contracts, some uncertainty exists in light of the recent
     Congressional scrutiny of appropriations for HUD programs.

          For federal income tax purposes, the Local Partnerships report on a
     basis whereby:  (1) certain revenue and the related assets are recorded
     when received rather than when earned; (2) certain costs are expensed when
     paid or incurred rather than capitalized and amortized over the period of
     benefit; and (3) a shorter life is used to compute depreciation of the
     property for tax purposes as permitted by Internal Revenue Service (IRS)
     Regulations.  These returns are subject to audit and, therefore, possible
     adjustment by the IRS.

          A reconciliation of the Local Partnerships' financial statement net
     loss reflected above to the income tax loss for the years ended December
     31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 is as follows:

3.   RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership paid the
Managing General Partner a fee for services in connection with the review,
selection, evaluation, negotiation and acquisition of the interests in the Local
Partnerships.  The fee amounted to $1,200,000, which is equal to 2% of the
Additional Limited Partners' capital contributions to the Partnership.  The
acquisition fee was capitalized and is being amortized over a thirty-year period
using the straight-line method.

     In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership
is obligated to reimburse the Managing General Partner for its direct expenses
in managing the Partnership and to pay an annual incentive management fee (the
Management Fee), after all other expenses of the Partnership are paid.  For the
years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, the Partnership paid $77,544,
$102,491 and $76,217, respectively, as direct reimbursement of expenses incurred
on behalf of the Partnership. Such expenses are included in the accompanying
consolidated statements of operations as general and administrative expenses.

     The amount of the Management Fee shall be equal to .25% of invested assets,
as defined in the Partnership Agreement, and shall be payable from the
Partnership's cash available for distribution, as defined in the Partnership
Agreement, as of the end of each calendar year, as follows:

     a.   First, on a monthly basis as an operating expense before any
          distributions to limited partners in the amount computed as described
          in the Partnership Agreement, provided that such amount shall not be
          greater than $300,000 and;
     b.   Second, after distributions to the limited partners in the amount of
          1% of the gross proceeds of the offering, the balance of such .25% of
          invested assets.

3.   RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS - Continued

     For each of the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, the
Partnership paid the Managing General Partner a Management Fee of $300,000.  

     From April 1990 through January 1994, CRICO Management Corporation (CRICO),
an affiliate of the Managing General Partner, provided consulting, accounting
and other services to Walden Apartments.  Fees paid or accrued to CRICO for
these services amounted to $12,278 for the month ended January 31, 1994.  Fees
paid or accrued were $138,336 for the year ended December 31, 1993.  On February
1, 1994, CRICO contributed its property management and/or consulting contracts
and personnel to CAPREIT Residential Corporation (CAPREIT).  CAPREIT was formed
by CRI but is not currently owned or controlled by CRI and/or its affiliates. 
On April 12, 1995, HUD approved CAPREIT as the new management agent.

     The Managing General Partner and/or its affiliates may receive a fee of not
more than 2% of the sales price of an investment in a Local Partnership or the
property it owns, payable under certain conditions upon the sale of an
investment in a Local Partnership or the property its owns.  The payment of the
fee is subject to certain restrictions, including the achievement of a certain
level of sales proceeds and making certain minimum distributions to limited
partners.  The Managing General Partner and/or its affiliates earned net fees
for services relating to the sale of the Partnership's interest in the Park
Heights Towers Local Partnership of $117,028 on February 2, 1996.  These fees
have not been paid as of March 8, 1996.

4.   PARTNERSHIP PROFITS AND LOSSES AND DISTRIBUTIONS

     All profits and losses prior to the first date on which Additional Limited
Partners were admitted were allocated 98.49% to the Initial Limited Partners and
1.51% to the General Partners.  Upon admission of the Special Limited Partner
and the Additional Limited Partners, the interest of the Initial Limited
Partners was reduced to .49%.  The net proceeds resulting from the liquidation
of the Partnership or the Partnership's share of the net proceeds from any sale
or refinancing of the projects or their rental properties which are not
reinvested shall be distributed and applied as follows:

       (i)     to the payment of debts and liabilities of the Partnership
               (including all expenses of the Partnership incident to the sale
               or refinancing) other than loans or other debts and liabilities
               of the Partnership to any partner or any affiliate, such debts
               and liabilities, in the case of a non-liquidating distribution,
               to be only those which are then required to be paid or, in the
               judgment of the Managing General Partner, required to be provided
               for;
      (ii)     to the establishment of any reserves which the Managing General
               Partner deems reasonably necessary for contingent, unmatured or
               unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Partnership;
     (iii)     to each partner in an amount equal to the positive balance in his
               capital account as of the date of the sale or refinancing,
               adjusted for operations and distributions to that date, but
               before allocation of any profits for tax purposes realized from
               such sale or refinancing and allocated pursuant to the
               Partnership Agreement;
      (iv)     to the limited partners (A) an aggregate amount of proceeds from
               sale or refinancing and all prior sales or refinancings equal to
               their capital contributions, without reduction for prior cash
               distributions other than prior distributions of sale and

               refinancing proceeds, plus (B) an additional amount equal to a
               cumulative noncompounded 6% return, on each limited partners'
               capital contribution, reduced, but not below zero, by (1) an
               amount equal to 50% of the losses for tax purposes plus tax
               credits allocated to such limited partner and (2) distributions
               of net cash flow to each limited partner, such return, losses for
               tax purposes and net cash flow distributions commencing on the
               first day of the month in which the capital contribution was
               made;
       (v)     to the repayment of any unrepaid loans theretofore made by any
               partner or any affiliate to the Partnership for Partnership
               obligations and to the payment of any unpaid amounts owing to the
               General Partners pursuant to the Partnership Agreement;
      (vi)     to the General Partners in the amount of their capital
               contributions;
     (vii)     thereafter, for their services to the Partnership, in equal
               shares to certain general partners (or their designees), whether
               or not any is then a general partner, an aggregate fee of 1% of
               the gross proceeds resulting from (A) such sale (if the proceeds
               are from a sale rather than a refinancing) and (B) any prior sale
               from which such 1% fee was not paid to the General Partners or
               their designees; and,
     (viii)    the remainder, 12% to the General Partners (or their assignees),
               3% to the Special Limited Partner and 85% to the Initial and
               Additional Limited Partners (or their assignees).

     Fees payable to certain general partners (or their designees) under (vii)
above, together with all other property disposition fees and any other
commissions or fees payable upon the sale of apartment complexes, shall not in
the aggregate exceed the lesser of the competitive rate or 6% of the sales price
of the apartment complexes.

     In addition, the Managing General Partner and/or its affiliates may receive
a fee in an amount of not more than 2% of the sales price of the investment in a
Local Partnership or the property it owns.  The fee would only be payable upon
the sale of the investment in a Local Partnership or the property it owns and
would be subject to certain restrictions, including achievement of a certain
level of sales proceeds and making certain minimum distributions to limited
partners.   No such amounts were paid to the Managing General Partner and/or its
affiliates during 1995, 1994 and 1993.  In February 1996, the Managing General
Partner and/or its affiliates earned fees totalling $117,028 relating to the
sale of the Park Heights Towers property.  These fees have not been paid as of
March 8, 1996.

     Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, all cash available for distribution,
as defined, shall be distributed, not less frequently than annually, 97% to the
Additional Limited Partners, 1% to the Special Limited Partner, .49% to the
Initial Limited Partner and 1.51% to the General Partners, after payment of the
Management Fee (see Note 3), as specified in the Partnership Agreement.  As
defined in the Partnership Agreement, prior to the establishment of any reserves
deemed necessary by the Managing General Partner and after payment of the
Management Fee, the Partnership had cash available for distribution of
approximately $250,000, $0, and $4,000 for the years ended December 31, 1995,
1994 and 1993, respectively.  No distributions were declared or paid during
1995, 1994 and 1993 because any cash available for distribution is currently
being retained by the Partnership, as previously discussed.

5.   RECONCILIATION OF THE PARTNERSHIP'S FINANCIAL STATEMENT NET
          LOSS TO INCOME TAX LOSS

     For federal income tax purposes, the Partnership reports on a basis
whereby:  (1) certain expenses are amortized rather than expensed when incurred;
(2) certain costs are amortized over a shorter period for tax purposes, as
permitted by IRS Regulations, and (3) certain costs are amortized over a longer
period for tax purposes.  The Partnership records its share of losses from its
investments in limited partnerships for federal income tax purposes as reported
on the Local Partnerships' federal income tax returns (see Note 2e), including
losses in excess of related investments amounts.  In addition, adjustments
arising from the imputation of interest on the Partnership's purchase money
notes for financial reporting purposes are eliminated for income tax purposes
(see Note 2a).  These returns are subject to audit and, therefore, possible
adjustment by the IRS.  

     A reconciliation of the Partnership's financial statement net loss to the
income tax loss for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 is as
follows:

6.   CONTINGENCIES

     In 1990, CRI, as Managing General Partner of the Partnership and various
other entities, subcontracted certain property-level asset management functions
for certain properties to Capital Management Strategies, Inc. (CMS).  Among
these properties were properties owned by certain of the Local Partnerships in
which the Partnership invested.  CMS was formed by Martin C. Schwartzberg, a
nominal general partner of the Partnership and a former stockholder of CRI, when
he cashed out of CRI and its related businesses as of January 1, 1990.  Mr.
Schwartzberg agreed not to act as a general partner with respect to any of the
CRI-sponsored partnerships, including this Partnership, and has not done so
since that time.  In late 1995, a dispute arose between CRI and CMS over the
funding level of the 1996 contract for CMS.  On November 9, 1995, CRI filed a
complaint against CMS to determine the proper amount of fees to be paid in 1996
under the asset management agreement.  CMS answered on January 10, 1996, but
asserted no counterclaims.

     Thereafter, Mr. Schwartzberg launched a hostile consent solicitation to be
designated as managing general partner of approximately 125 private partnerships
sponsored by CRI.  On January 18, 1996, Mr. Schwartzberg and CMS filed a
complaint in the Circuit Court of Montgomery County, Maryland (the Circuit
Court), against CRI and Messrs. Dockser and Willoughby (who are general partners
of the Partnership) alleging, among other things, that CRI and Messrs. Dockser
and Willoughby have breached the asset management agreement pursuant to which
Mr. Schwartzberg's company, CMS, agreed to perform limited functions related to
property-level issues for a portion of CRI's subsidized housing portfolio
(including some of the properties in which the Partnership invested), by

reducing the proposed budget for 1996.  The Partnership is not named as a
defendant in this action.  Messrs. Dockser and Willoughby have entered an answer
denying all of Mr. Schwartzberg's claims.  Messrs. Dockser and Willoughby have
publicly responded that Mr. Schwartzberg's suit is motivated by his budget
dispute with CRI and personal animosity.  On February 6, 1996, CRI terminated
the CMS contract for cause.  Mr. Schwartzberg and CMS responded by filing a
motion for injunctive relief in the Circuit Court, asking the court to enjoin
CRI from terminating the contract.  In a ruling issued on February 12, 1996, the
Circuit Court, among other things, refused to grant the injunction requested by
CMS.  A hearing in this case is scheduled for April 29, 1996.  On February 12,
1996, the Circuit Court also issued a memorandum opinion and order enjoining CMS
and Mr. Schwartzberg from disclosing information made confidential under the
asset management agreement.

     On February 1, 1996 and February 16, 1996, Mr. Schwartzberg sent letters to
the Partnership requesting investor lists and other forms of investor
information.  On February 5, 1996, the Partnership, acting through its managing
general partner, CRI, denied Mr. Schwartzberg's request.  On February 20, 1996,
counsel for the Partnership responded to Mr. Schwartzberg's second request,
denying that Mr. Schwartzberg had standing or a proper purpose for requesting
the investor lists.  In view of Mr. Schwartzberg's solicitation efforts against
other CRI-sponsored partnerships, CRI anticipates that litigation may arise from
this request.

To the Partners
Capital Realty Investors-III
  Limited Partnership


     In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements of
Capital Realty Investors-III Limited Partnership referred to in our report dated
March 8, 1996, which is included in this Form 10-K, we have also audited
Schedule III as of December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993.  We did not audit the
financial statements for thirty-three of the Local Partnerships in 1995 and 1994
and 1993, which are accounted for as described in Note 1d.  In our opinion, this
schedule presents fairly, in all material respects, the information required to
be set forth therein.
