AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
----------
1. Organization of Partnership:
Cluster Housing Properties (a California Limited Partnership) (the
"Partnership"), formerly Berry and Boyle Cluster Housing Properties, was formed
on August 8, 1983. The Partnership issued all of the General Partnership
Interests to three General Partners in exchange for capital contributions
aggregating $2,000. Stephen B. Boyle and GP L'Auberge Communities, L.P., (a
California Limited Partnership), formerly Berry and Boyle Management, are the
General Partners. In September, 1995, with the consent of Limited Partners
holding a majority of the outstanding Units, as well as the consent of the
mortgage lenders for the Partnership's three properties, Richard G. Berry
resigned as a general partner of the Partnership.
A total of 2,000 individual Limited Partners owning 32,421 units have
contributed $16,210,500 of capital to the Partnership. At June 30, 1998, the
total number of Limited Partners was 1,902. Except under certain limited
circumstances, as defined in the Partnership Agreement, the General Partners are
not required to make any additional capital contributions. The General Partners
or their affiliates will receive various fees for services and reimbursement for
various organizational and selling costs incurred on behalf of the Partnership.
The Partnership will continue until December 31, 2010, unless terminated earlier
by the sale of all, or substantially all, of the assets of the Partnership, or
otherwise in accordance with the provisions of Section 16 of the Partnership
Agreement. The Partnership has sold substantially all of the assets and is in
its final liquidation. Once all Partnership obligations have been satisfied, the
remaining Partnership funds, if any, are anticipated to be distributed to the
Limited Partners. Such funds, if any, are expected to be modest in amount. It is
anticipated that the Partnership will be wound up by December 31, 1998.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
A. Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Partnership and its subsidiaries: Sin Vacas Joint Venture (Sin Vacas),
Autumn Ridge Joint Venture (Autumn Ridge) and Villa Antigua Joint
Venture (Villa Antigua). All intercompany accounts and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation. The Partnership follows the
accrual basis of accounting. Refer to Note 4 regarding the termination
of the Joint Ventures and the sale of Villas Sin Vacas, Villa Antigua
and Pinecliff.
B. Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Partnership considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased
with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The
carrying value of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value. It
is the Partnership's policy to invest cash in income-producing
temporary cash investments. The Partnership mitigates any potential
risk from such concentration of credit by placing investments with high
quality financial institutions.
C. Significant Risks and Uncertainties
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
2. Significant Accounting Policies, continued:
D. Depreciation
Depreciation is provided for by the use of the straight-line method
over estimated useful lives as follows:
Buildings and improvements 39-40 years
Equipment, furnishings and fixtures 5-15 years
E. Deferred Expenses
Costs of obtaining or extending mortgages on the properties are being
amortized over the mortgage term using the straight-line method, which
approximates the effective interest method. Fees paid to certain of the
property developers were amortized over the term of the services
provided using the straight-line method. Any unamortized costs
remaining at the date of a refinancing are expensed in the year of
refinancing.
F. Income Taxes
The Partnership is not liable for Federal or state income taxes because
Partnership income or loss is allocated to the Partners for income tax
purposes. If the Partnership's tax returns are examined by the Internal
Revenue Service or state taxing authority and such an examination
results in a change in Partnership taxable income (loss), such change
will be reported to the Partners.
G. Rental Income
Leases require the payment of rent in advance; however, rental income
is recorded as earned.
H. Long-Lived Assets
In 1996, the Partnership adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 121 (SFAS 121), "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of." SFAS 121 requires that long-lived
assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be
recoverable. The adoption of SFAS 121 had no effect on reported results
in 1996. As of the year ended December 31, 1997, the Partnership
recorded the assets at the lower of carrying value or net realizable
value and has included these amounts as Assets Held for Sale.
I. New Accounting Standards
In 1997, the Partnership adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 128 (SFAS 128), "Earnings Per Share." This accounting
standard specifies new computation, presentation, and disclosure
requirements for earnings per share to be applied retroactively. Among
other things, SFAS 128 requires presentation of basic and diluted
earnings per share on the face of the income statement. The computation
of basic and diluted earnings per share was based on income available
to the Limited Partners divided by the weighted average number of units
outstanding during the period. The Partnership has no dilutive type
securities. The adoption of SFAS 128 had no effect on the per unit
results previously reported.
<PAGE>
3. Cash and Cash Equivalents:
Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997 consisted of
the following:
June 30, December 31,
1998 1997
---- ----
Cash on hand $ 219,585 $ 132,330
Money market accounts 3,142,202 289,250
--------- -------
$3,474,912 $421,580
4. Joint Venture and Property Acquisitions:
The Partnership has invested in three properties located in Scottsdale and
Tucson, Arizona and Colorado Springs, Colorado. The success of the Partnership
will depend upon factors which are difficult to predict including general
economic and real estate market conditions, both on a national basis and in the
areas where the Partnership's investments are located. The Partnership holds a
majority interest in these properties and controls the operations of the joint
ventures.
Villas Sin Vacas
On October 25, 1985, the Partnership acquired a majority interest in the Sin
Vacas Joint Venture, which owns and operates the Villas at Sin Vacas, a 72-unit
residential property located in Tucson, Arizona. Since the Partnership owns a
majority interest in the Sin Vacas Joint Venture, the accounts and operations of
the Sin Vacas Joint Venture have been consolidated into the Partnership.
The co-venture partner was an affiliate of Evans Withycombe, Inc. ("EWI"), a
Phoenix based residential development, construction and management firm. EWI is
also the developer of the Villas Sin Vacas property.
The Partnership made initial cash payments in the form of capital contributions
totaling $2,458,507 and funded $398,949 of property acquisition costs which were
treated as a capital contribution to the joint venture. Since completion of
construction, the Partnership has made additional contributions totaling
$275,167. At June 30, 1998, the total capital contributions and acquisition
costs incurred were $2,713,937 and $418,686, respectively.
JANUARY 1, 1996 THROUGH MAY 13, 1996
Net cash from operations (as defined in the joint venture agreement) was to be
distributed as available to each joint venture partner quarterly as follows:
First, to the Partnership, an amount equal to 8.75% per annum,
noncumulative (computed daily on a simple noncompounded basis from the
date of completion funding) of the Partnership's capital investment, as
defined in the joint venture agreement;
Second, the balance 70% to the Partnership and 30% to the co-venturer.
All losses from operations and depreciation for the Sin Vacas Joint Venture were
allocated 99% to the Partnership and 1% to the co-venturer.
4. Joint Venture and Property Acquisitions, continued:
All profits from operations, to the extent of cash distributions were allocated
to the Partnership and co-venturer in the same proportion as the cash
distribution. Any remaining profits are allocated 70% to the Partnership and 30%
to the co-venturer.
In the case of certain capital transactions and distributions as defined in the
joint venture agreement, the allocation of related profits, losses and cash
distributions, if any, would be different than as described above and would be
effected by the relative balances in the individual partners' capital accounts.
Villa Antigua
On June 11, 1987, the Partnership acquired a majority interest in the Villa
Antigua Joint Venture, which owns and operates Villa Antigua, an 88-unit
residential property located in Scottsdale, Arizona. Since the Partnership owns
a majority interest in the Villa Antigua Joint Venture, the accounts and
operations of the Villa Antigua Joint Venture have been consolidated into the
Partnership.
The co-venture partner was an affiliate of Evans Withycombe, Inc. ("EWI"), a
Phoenix based residential development, construction and management firm. EWI is
also the developer of the Villa Antigua property.
The Partnership made initial cash payments in the form of capital contributions
totaling $2,494,677 and funded $381,729 of property acquisition costs which were
treated as a capital contribution to the Villa Antigua Joint Venture. Since
completion of construction, the Partnership has made additional contributions
totaling $85,440. At June 30, 1998, the total capital contributions and
acquisition costs incurred were $2,580,117 and $381,729, respectively.
JANUARY 1, 1996 THROUGH MAY 13, 1996
Net cash from operations (as defined in the joint venture agreement) was to be
distributed as available to each joint venture partner quarterly as follows:
First, to the Partnership, an amount equal to 10% per annum,
noncumulative (computed daily on a simple noncompounded basis from the
date of completion funding) of the Partnership's adjusted capital
investment, as defined in the joint venture agreement;
Second, the balance 70% to the Partnership and 30% to the co-venturer.
All losses from operations and depreciation for the Villa Antigua Joint Venture
were allocated 99% to the Partnership and 1% to the co-venturer.
All profits from operations, to the extent of cash distributions, were allocated
to the Partnership and co-venturer in the same proportion as the cash
distributions; however, if for any taxable year there are no cash distributions,
profits are allocated 99% to the Partnership and 1% to the co-venturer.
In the case of certain capital transactions and distributions as defined in the
joint venture agreement, the allocation of related profits, losses and cash
distributions, if any, would be different than as described above and would be
affected by the relative balances in the individual partners' capital accounts.
<PAGE>
4.Joint Venture and Property Acquisitions, continued:
Sin Vacas and Villa Antigua
MAY 14, 1996 THROUGH NOVEMBER 25, 1997
On May 14, 1996, the Partnership and certain affiliates consummated an agreement
with Evans Withycombe Management, Inc. and certain of its affiliates ("EWI")
which separated the interests of EWI and the Partnership, thus affording the
Partnership greater flexibility in the operation and disposition of the
properties. In consideration of a payment by the Partnership to EWI of $73,775
and delivery of certain mutual releases, EWI (i) relinquished its contract to
manage Sin Vacas and Villa Antigua and its option to exercise its rights of
first refusal with regard to the sale of those properties and (ii) assigned all
of its interest in the Sin Vacas Joint Venture and the Villa Antigua Joint
Venture to the Partnership (while preserving the economic interests of the
venturer in these Joint Ventures), which resulted in the dissolution of the Sin
Vacas Joint Venture and the Villa Antigua Joint Venture. EWI may still share in
the cash flow distributions or proceeds from sale of the properties if certain
performance levels are met.
On November 25, 1997, Villa Sin Vacas was sold pursuant to the terms of a Sale
Agreement and escrow Instructions (the "Agreement") dated May 6, 1997, as
amended. Villas Sin Vacas was sold to Villas Sin Vacas Townhome Ventures Limited
Partnership, an Arizona Limited Partnership unaffiliated with the Partnership,
the assignee of Capital Management Systems, Inc., a Pennsylvania Corporation.
The net selling price for Villas Sin Vacas was $4,952,091 subject to certain
customary adjustments. The Partnership repaid first mortgage financing in the
amount of $2,396,000 at closing utilizing a portion of proceeds from the sale.
The Partnership recorded a gain on sale of approximately $975,000.
On October 10, 1997, Villa Antigua was sold pursuant to the terms of a Sale
Agreement and escrow Instructions (the "Agreement") dated May 6, 1997, as
amended. Villa Antigua was sold to Villa Sin Antigua Condominium Ventures
Limited Partnership, an Arizona Limited Partnership unaffiliated with the
Partnership, the assignee of Capital Management Systems, Inc., a Pennsylvania
Corporation. The net selling price for Villa Antigua was $6,141,526 subject to
certain customary adjustments. The Partnership repaid first mortgage financing
in the amount of $3,010,362 at closing utilizing a portion of proceeds from the
sale. The Partnership recorded a gain on sale of approximately $1,307,000.
Pinecliff
On July 16, 1986, the Partnership acquired Pinecliff (formerly Autumn Ridge), a
96-unit residential property located in Colorado Springs, Colorado and
simultaneously contributed the property to the Autumn Ridge Joint Venture
comprised of the Partnership and an affiliate of the property developer. Since
the Partnership owns a majority interest in the Autumn Ridge Joint Venture, the
accounts and operations of the Autumn Ridge Joint Venture have been consolidated
into the Partnership.
The co-venture partner was Highland Properties, Inc. ("Highland") a Colorado
based residential development, construction and management firm. Highland
developed the property known as L'Auberge Pinecliff.
The Partnership made initial cash payments in the form of capital contributions
totaling $3,819,397 and funded $546,576 of property acquisition costs which were
treated as a capital contribution to the Autumn Ridge Joint Venture. Since
completion of construction, the Partnership has made additional contributions
totaling $318,811.
4.Joint Venture and Property Acquisitions, continued:
JANUARY 1, 1996 THROUGH JULY 2, 1996:
Net cash from operations (as defined in the joint venture agreement) was to be
distributed as available to each joint venture partner quarterly as follows:
First, to the Partnership, an amount equal to 8% per annum,
noncumulative (computed daily on a simple noncompounded basis from the
date of completion funding) of the Partnership's capital investment, as
defined in the joint venture agreement;
Second, the balance 82% to the Partnership and 18% to the co-venturer.
All losses from operations and depreciation for the Autumn Ridge Joint Venture
were allocated 100% to the Partnership.
All profits from operations, to the extent of cash distributions, were allocated
to the Partnership and co-venturer in the same proportion as the cash
distribution. Any remaining profits are allocated 82% to the Partnership and 18%
to the co-venturer.
In the case of certain capital transactions and distributions as defined in the
joint venture agreement, the allocation of related profits, losses and cash
distributions, if any, would be different than as described above and would be
affected by the relative balances in the individual partners' capital accounts.
JULY 3, 1996 THROUGH MAY 28, 1998
On July 3, 1996, the Partnership and certain affiliates consummated an agreement
with Highland Properties, Inc. ("Highland") which separated the interests of
Highland and the Partnership, thus affording the Partnership greater flexibility
in the operation and disposition of the property. In consideration of a payment
by the Partnership to Highland totaling $7,718, and delivery of certain mutual
releases, Highland (i) relinquished its option to exercise its rights of first
refusal with regard to the sale of the property and (ii) assigned all of its
interest in the L'Auberge Pinecliff Joint Venture to the Partnership, (while
preserving the economic interests of the venturer in these Joint Ventures),
which resulted in the dissolution of the L'Auberge Pinecliff Joint Venture.
Highland may still share in the cash flow distributions or proceeds from sale of
the properties if certain performance levels are met.
On May 28, 1998, the Partnership sold its final real estate asset. Pinecliff was
sold to G&I Pinecliff LLC, a Delaware limited liability company unaffiliated
with the Partnership. The purchase price for Pinecliff was $6,700,000, subject
to certain customary adjustments and a $360,000 credit to the purchaser. The
Partnership repaid mortgage financing in the approximate amount of $3,041,860 at
closing utilizing a portion of proceeds from the sale. The Partnership realized
net proceeds of approximately $3,145,390 from the sale of Pinecliff.
Subsequently, on August 5, 1998, the Partnership distributed the sale proceeds
from Pinecliff to the limited partners. The total amount distributed was
$3,242,100,000 or $100 per interest.
<PAGE>
5. Mortgage Notes Payable:
Pinecliff
The original maturity date for these notes was July 15, 1997. On July 10, 1997,
the lender extended the terms of the mortgage note for a period of one year.
Under the modification agreement, the monthly principal and interest payment of
$27,976 and the original interest rate of 9.125% remained unchanged. The terms
of the agreement provide for a prepayment penalty of 0.5% of the outstanding
loan amount in the event the note is paid prior to 60 days before it becomes
due. As discussed in Note 4, the Partnership sold Pinecliff and the outstanding
mortgage debt of $3,041,860 was paid. There was no prepayment penalty assessed
since the debt was paid within 60 days of maturity.
The property owned by the Partnership was pledged as collateral for the
nonrecourse mortgage notes payable outstanding December 31, 1997, which
consisted of the following:
1998 1997

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At June 30, 1998, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of $3,474,912
compared with $421,580 at December 31, 1997. The aggregate net increase of
$3,053,332 resulted primarily from proceeds from the sale of Pinecliff of
$6,608,653, plus $42,297 received from the escrow agent relating to the sale of
Villa Sin Vacas, plus a refund of deposits of $1,335 offset by principal
payments on the mortgage notes payable of $3,058,800, and the cash needed for
operations of $178,859, and purchase of fixed assets of $361,293.
Subsequently, on August 5, 1998, the Partnership distributed the sale proceeds
from Pinecliff to the limited partners. The total amount distributed was
$3,242,100,000 or $100 per interest.
Property Status
On May 28, 1998, the Partnership sold its final real estate asset, Pinecliff, a
96-unit multi-family rental property in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Pinecliff
was sold to G&I Pinecliff LLC, a Delaware limited liability company unaffiliated
with the Partnership. The purchase price for Pinecliff was $6,700,000, subject
to certain customary adjustments and a $360,000 credit to the purchaser. The
Partnership repaid mortgage financing in the approximate amount of $3,041,860 at
closing utilizing a portion of proceeds from the sale. The Partnership realized
net proceeds of approximately $3,145,390 from the sale of Pinecliff.
During the fourth quarter of 1997, the Partnership sold two properties: (1)
Villas at Sin Vacas, a 72-unit multifamily rental property in Tucson, Arizona,
which was sold in November 1997; and (2) Villa Antigua, an 88-unit multifamily
rental property in Scottsdale, Arizona, which was sold in October 1997. The
ownership of each property was formerly structured as a Joint Venture in which
the Partnership owned a majority interest. With regard to the termination of the
Joint Ventures and the sales of properties, see Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements.

For the three months ended June 30, 1998, the Partnership's
operating results were comprised of its share of the income and expenses from
Pinecliff , as well as partnership level interest income earned on short term
investments, reduced by administrative expenses. A summary of these operating
