Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
- ----------------------------------------------------
Somerset Pointe Apartments
In 1983, the Partnership acquired the Somerset Pointe Apartments, Las Vegas,
Nevada, utilizing approximately $8,188,580 in offering proceeds. The property
was acquired subject to first mortgage financing of approximately $12,187,000.
On September 25, 1996, the Partnership contracted to sell the property for a
sale price of $18,720,655 to an unaffiliated party, AIMCO Properties, L.P., a
Delaware limited partnership. Pursuant to the agreement of sale, the purchaser
is obligated to deposit $321,937 into an escrow account as earnest money upon
the completion of the purchaser's due diligence review. The remainder of the
sale price will be payable in cash at closing, scheduled for November 18, 1996.
From the proceeds of the sale, the Partnership will repay the outstanding
balance of the first mortgage loan, which is expected to be approximately
$10,781,000 at closing, and $187,207 to an unaffiliated party as a brokerage
commission. The Partnership will receive the remaining proceeds of
approximately $7,752,448, less closing costs. Of the net sale proceeds,
$322,000 will be retained by the Partnership and will not be available for use
or distribution by the Partnership until 90 days after the closing. Neither the
General Partner nor any affiliate will receive a brokerage commission in
connection with the sale of the Property. The General Partner will be
reimbursed by the Partnership for actual expenses incurred in connection with
the sale.
The purchaser has simultaneously contracted to purchase two properties adjacent
to the Property, one of which is owned by an affiliate of the General Partner
(the "Affiliate") and one of which is owned by an unaffiliated party. A
default by the purchaser, Partnership or any other seller under any
agreement of sale will be considered a default under all the agreements. If
the agreements are terminated due to a default by the Partnership or another
seller, the purchaser will be entitled to receive a return of its earnest money
and interest accrued thereon plus additional damages in an amount equal to the
earnest money deposits. If the agreements are terminated due to a default by
the purchaser, the Partnership and sellers will retain all earnest money and
interest accrued thereon. In the event the purchaser terminates any agreement,
other than by a default, the other agreements will also be terminated, and the
purchaser will receive a return of all earnest money previously deposited plus
interest accrued thereon.
If the agreements are terminated due to a default by the unaffiliated seller,
such seller is obligated to reimburse the Partnership and the Affiliate for any
damages paid by them to the purchaser arising from the termination. If the
agreements are terminated due to a default by the Partnership or Affiliate,
such sellers are obligated to reimburse the unaffiliated seller for any damages
paid to the purchaser arising from the termination.
Affiliates of the General Partner have previously sold or contracted to sell
other assets to affiliates of the purchaser.
The closing is subject to the satisfaction of numerous terms and conditions.
There can be no assurance that all of the terms and conditions will be complied
with and, therefore, it is possible the sale of the property may not occur.

Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions" shall mean that certain Declaration of
Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for the Condominium Development of
Westwood Point, Clark County, Nevada recorded July 16, 1982 in Book 1595 of the
Official Records of Clark County, Nevada (the "Official Records") as Document

2. PURCHASE PRICE. The Purchase Price shall be paid as follows:
a. On or before the expiration of the Approval Period (as
hereinafter defined), the sum of $321,937.00 ("Earnest Money") to be held in
escrow by the Escrow Agent (as that term is defined in the Escrow Agreement),
by and in accordance with the provisions of the Escrow Agreement ("Escrow
Agreement") attached hereto as Exhibit C;
b. On the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined), $18,720,655.00
(inclusive of all Earnest Money) adjusted in accordance with the prorations by
federally wired "immediately available" funds delivered to the Title Insurer
(as hereinafter defined) no later than 12:00 Noon Central Time on the Closing
Date. If the funds are not received by 12:00 Noon Central Time, then on the
Closing Date, Purchaser shall pay Seller an amount equal to any additional
mortgage per diem interest costs incurred by the Seller.
3. TITLE COMMITMENT AND SURVEY.
a. Attached hereto as Exhibit D is a title commitment with an
effective date of July 26, 1996 ("Title Commitment") for an owner's standard
coverage title insurance policy ("Title Policy") issued by First American Title
Company of Nevada ("Title Insurer"). The owner's Title Policy issued at
Closing will be an ALTA policy in the amount of the Purchase Price subject only
to real estate taxes not yet due and payable, the general printed exceptions
set forth in Schedule B-Section 2 (Part I) as Numbers 7, 8 and 9 and the
special title exceptions set forth in Schedule B-Section 2 (Part II) Numbers 4
through 16, 21, 22 and 23 (modified as to tenants only, as shown on the rent
roll) of the Title Commitment. All of the above are herein referred to as the
"Permitted Exceptions". The Title Commitment shall be conclusive evidence of
good title as therein shown as to all matters insured by the policy, subject
only to the exceptions therein stated. On the Closing Date, Seller shall cause
the Title Insurer to issue the Title Policy or a "marked up" commitment in
conformity with the Title Commitment. Purchaser and Seller shall equally share
the costs of the Title Policy (which includes the cost of "extended coverage");
however, Purchaser shall pay the costs of any special endorsements which
Purchaser requires.
<PAGE>
b. Purchaser acknowledges receipt of a survey ("Survey") of the
Property prepared by SEA Incorporated and dated January 25, 1996. Prior to the
Closing, Seller will have the Survey re-certified to the Purchaser, Purchaser's
lender, if any, and the Title Insurer in accordance with the requirements of
Purchaser's lender. However, if Purchaser requires any additional survey work,
Purchaser shall pay for the cost of such additional work.
4. CONDITION OF TITLE/CONVEYANCE. Seller agrees to convey fee simple
title to the Property by Grant, Bargain, Sale Deed ("Deed") in recordable form
subject only to the Permitted Exceptions. If Seller is unable to convey title
to the Property subject only to the Permitted Exceptions because of the
existence of an additional title exception or matter shown on the Survey (each,
an "Unpermitted Exception"), then Purchaser can elect to take title to the
Property subject to the Unpermitted Exception or terminate this Agreement;
provided, however, that if such Unpermitted Exceptions or matters are not
removed by the Closing Date, Purchaser may elect, upon written notice on or
prior to such date, to (a) discharge any Unpermitted Exceptions or matters
which can be discharged by the payment of money or the posting of security and
deduct from the cash portion of the Purchase Price the amount necessary to do
so (except to the extent that such discharged exceptions do not secure an
obligation to pay money, in which case Purchaser shall be able to deduct from
the Purchase Price not more than $50,000 in the aggregate with respect to such
exceptions), (b) extend the Closing Date to allow Seller a reasonable period of
time to remove such objected to exceptions or matters to the extent that Seller
is diligently working to cure or discharge such exceptions, or (c) proceed to a
timely Closing whereupon such objected to exceptions or matters shall be deemed
to be Permitted Exceptions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, Seller shall discharge and remove any and all liens affecting the
Property (by payment of monies or the posting of security) which secure an
obligation to pay money (other than installments of real estate taxes not due
and payable as of the Closing) and, even though Purchaser does not expressly
disapprove such liens, such liens shall not be Permitted Exceptions. Prior to
Closing, Seller shall not take any action or commit or suffer any acts which
would give rise to a variance from the current legal description of the Real
Property, or cause the creation of any exception or encumbrance against or
respecting the Real Property without the prior written consent of Purchaser,
which consent may be withheld in Purchaser's sole and absolute discretion.
5. PAYMENT OF CLOSING COSTS. Purchaser and Seller shall equally share
the costs of the documentary stamps (if any) to be paid with reference to the
Deed and all other stamps, intangible, documentary, recording, sales tax and
surtax imposed by law with reference to any other documents delivered in
connection with this Agreement.
6. DAMAGE, CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION.
a. If the Property suffers damage as a result of any casualty prior
to the Closing Date and can be repaired or restored in the case of real
property for $250,000.00 or less, or in the case of Personal Property, for
$25,000.00 or less, then Seller shall commence the repair or restoration in an
expeditious manner, in which event the Closing Date will be extended until such
<PAGE>
date as may reasonably be required to complete the repair or restoration to the
reasonable satisfaction of Purchaser. Seller shall retain all insurance
proceeds. If the cost of repair or restoration exceeds that amount, then
Seller can elect to either: (a) repair and restore same, in which event the
Closing Date will be extended until such date as may reasonably be required to
complete the repair or restoration to the reasonable satisfaction of Purchaser;
or (b) terminate this Agreement upon notice to Purchaser served within
twenty (20) business days of such casualty. If Seller elects to terminate this
Agreement pursuant to this Paragraph, then Purchaser will have the option to
accept the Property in its damaged condition together with an assignment from
Seller of all insurance proceeds and receive a credit at Closing in the amount
of the deductible, provided Purchaser notifies Seller by notice served within
twenty (20) days after receipt of Seller's notice of election to terminate.
b. If condemnation proceedings ("Proceedings") are instituted
against the Property and the parties reasonably believe that such Proceedings
will result in an award in excess of $100,000.00, then Purchaser can elect to
either take the Property subject to the Proceedings and an assignment of
Seller's interest in the Proceedings or terminate this Agreement. If Purchaser
elects to terminate this Agreement, it shall be by notice to the Seller within
five (5) days after Seller notifies Purchaser of the Proceedings.
7. AS-IS CONDITION.
a. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that it will be purchasing the
Property based solely upon its inspection and investigations of the Property
and that Purchaser will be purchasing the Property "AS IS" and "WITH ALL
FAULTS" based upon the condition of the Property as of the date of this
Agreement, subject to reasonable wear and tear. Without limiting the
foregoing, Purchaser acknowledges that, except as may otherwise be specifically
set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, neither Seller nor its consultants,
brokers or agents have made any other representations or warranties of any kind
upon which Purchaser is relying as to any matters concerning the Property,
including, but not limited to, the condition of the land or any improvements,
the existence or nonexistence of asbestos, lead in water, lead in paint, radon,
underground or above ground storage tanks, petroleum, toxic waste or any
Hazardous Materials or Hazardous Substances (as such terms are defined below),
the tenants of the Property or the leases affecting the Property, economic
projections or market studies concerning the Property, any development rights,
taxes, bonds, covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the Property,
water or water rights, topography, drainage, soil, subsoil of the Property, the
utilities serving the Property or any zoning, environmental or building laws,
rules or regulations affecting the Property. Seller makes no representation
that the Property complies with Title III of the Americans With Disabilities
Act or any fire codes or building codes. Purchaser hereby releases Seller from
any and all liability in connection with any claims which Purchaser may have
against Seller, and Purchaser hereby agrees not to assert any claims, for
damage, loss, compensation, contribution, cost recovery or otherwise, against
Seller, whether in tort, contract, or otherwise, relating directly or
indirectly to the existence of asbestos or Hazardous Materials or Hazardous
Substances on, or environmental conditions of, the Property, or arising under
<PAGE>
the Environmental Laws (as such term is hereinafter defined), or relating in
any way to the quality of the indoor or outdoor environment at the Property.
This release shall survive the Closing. As used herein, the term "Hazardous
Materials" or "Hazardous Substances" means (i) hazardous wastes, hazardous
materials, hazardous substances, hazardous constituents, toxic substances or
related materials, whether solids, liquids or gases, including but not limited
to substances defined as "hazardous wastes," "hazardous materials," "hazardous
substances," "toxic substances," "pollutants," "contaminants," "radioactive

financial information regarding the Property relating to certain periods of
time in which Seller owned the Property. Seller and Purchaser hereby
acknowledge that such information has been provided to Purchaser at Purchaser's
request solely as illustrative material. Seller makes no representation or
warranty that such material is complete or accurate or that Purchaser will
achieve similar financial or other results with respect to the operations of
the Property, it being acknowledged by Purchaser that Seller's operation of the
Property and allocations of revenues or expenses may be vastly different than
Purchaser may be able to attain. Purchaser acknowledges that it is a
sophisticated and experienced purchaser of real estate and further that
Purchaser has relied upon its own investigation and inquiry with respect to the
operation of the Property and releases Seller from any liability with respect
to such historical information.

15. ASSIGNMENT. The Purchaser shall not have the right to assign its
interest in this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Seller.
Any assignment or transfer of, or attempt to assign or transfer, Purchaser's

certificate of insurance evidencing the existence of the aforesaid policies and
naming Seller as an additional insured. Purchaser agrees to indemnify, defend,
protect and hold Seller harmless from any and all loss, costs, including
attorneys' fees, liability or damages which Seller may incur or suffer as a
result of Purchaser's conducting its inspection and investigation of the
Property including the entry of Purchaser, its employees or agents and its
lender onto the Property, including without limitation, liability for
mechanics' lien claims resulting from Purchaser's inspection of the Property.
b. Purchaser agrees to defend and hold Seller harmless from any
injuries, damages or claims of any nature whatsoever which Purchaser's
servants, agents or employees may have as a result of Purchaser's inspection of
the Property. Purchaser further agrees to restore any damage to the Property
which may arise as a result of Purchaser's inspection of the Property.
c. If Purchaser fails to deliver the Earnest Money to the Escrow
Agent on or before the expiration of the Approval Period, then this Agreement
shall be deemed terminated.
<PAGE>
d. If at any time prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser discovers
any fact or circumstance which would cause a representation or warranty of
Seller to be untrue or misleading, or with the passage of time would become
untrue or misleading and Purchaser fails to notify Seller of such fact or
circumstance, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived its right to seek
damages or termination of this Agreement.
18. SURVIVAL OF INDEMNITIES. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement
to the contrary, the parties' obligations to indemnify, defend and hold each
other harmless under various provisions of this Agreement shall survive the
termination of this Agreement or the Closing and delivery and recording of the
Deed for a period of four (4) years.
19. TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT. If this Agreement is terminated by
Purchaser pursuant to any right of termination hereunder and Purchaser has
deposited the Earnest Money with the Escrow Agent, then upon such termination,
the Earnest Money plus all accrued interest shall be returned to the Purchaser.
20. SELLER'S REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS.

Seller's knowledge shall only mean such knowledge or notice that has actually

partner of Seller shall be personally liable for any claim that Purchaser may
assert during the ninety (90) day survival period for an amount not to exceed
$322,000.00.
<PAGE>

Purchaser can elect to terminate this Agreement or take title to the Property
subject to the untrue representation or warranty.
21. ENVIRONMENTAL REPORTS. Attached to this Agreement as Exhibit Q are

personal liability of any kind or nature for or by reason of any matter or
thing whatsoever under, in connection with, arising out of or in any way
related to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein, and

to the Closing Date, Purchaser will provide Seller's attorney with copies of
its organizational documents, including a certified copy of its recorded

authorizing the transaction, and an incumbency certificate, whichever is

24. TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence of this Agreement.
25. CROSS DEFAULT/OTHER AGREEMENTS. Simultaneously with the execution of
this Agreement, the Purchaser has entered into two other agreements ("Other
Agreements") with Westwood Pointe Associates and Springs Pointe Investors to
acquire Westwood Pointe Apartments, Las Vegas, Nevada, and Springs Pointe
Apartments, Las Vegas, Nevada, respectively. Each party hereto acknowledges
that it would not have entered into this Agreement if Purchaser and the sellers
under the Other Agreements had not executed the Other Agreements. A default by
the Purchaser under either of the Other Agreements shall be a default by
Purchaser under this Agreement. A default by a seller under either of the
Other Agreements shall be a default by Seller under this Agreement. If
<PAGE>
Purchaser exercises its right of termination under this Agreement, then the
Other Agreements shall automatically be terminated without further action by
either party. In such event, unless this Agreement is terminated because of a
default by Purchaser, the Earnest Money plus the interest accrued thereon shall
be returned to Purchaser. If there is a termination of this Agreement and the
Other Agreements because of a default by a seller, then any cost recoverable by
Purchaser which was incurred for all of the properties shall be prorated among
all of them.
