                                     Part I

Item 1.      Business

Rancon Realty Fund IV, a California Limited Partnership, ("the Partnership") was
organized in accordance  with the provisions of the California  Uniform  Limited
Partnership  Act  for  the  purpose  of  acquiring,  developing,  operating  and
ultimately  selling real  property.  The  Partnership  was organized in 1984 and
reached final funding in July, 1987. The general partners of the Partnership are
Daniel L. Stephenson  ("DLS") and Rancon Financial Corp.  ("RFC")  collectively,
the General  Partner.  RFC is wholly owned by DLS. At December 31, 1998,  76,767
limited  partnership  units ("Units") were  outstanding.  The Partnership has no
employees.

In April 1996,  the  Partnership  formed Rancon Realty Fund IV Tri-City  Limited
Partnership,  a Delaware limited partnership ("RRF IV Tri-City"). As required by
the lender (Bear,  Stearns  Funding,  Inc.) of a $6,400,000 loan obtained by the
Partnership  in  1996,  the  Partnership  contributed  three  of  its  operating
properties  to RRF IV Tri-City to provide a bankruptcy  remote  borrower for the
lender. The loan, secured by the properties in RRF IV Tri-City,  has a principal
balance of $6,290,000  at December 31, 1998,  and matures on May 1, 2006 with an
8.744% fixed interest rate and a 25-year amortization of principal. The limited
partner of RRF IV Tri-City is the  Partnership and the general partner is Rancon
Realty  Fund IV,  Inc.  ("RRF IV,  Inc."),  a  corporation  wholly  owned by the
Partnership. Since the Partnership owns 100% of RRF IV, Inc. and indirectly owns
100% of RRF IV Tri-City,  the Partnership  considers all assets owned by RRF IV,
Inc. and RRF IV Tri-City to be owned by the Partnership.

In 1997,  the  Partnership  entered  into an  agreement  to sell all of its real
estate assets to Glenborough Realty Trust Incorporated,  a Maryland  corporation
("GLB") and Glenborough  Properties L.P. ("GPLP") (collectively as the "Buyer"),
and then to liquidate the  Partnership,  as described in a Consent  Solicitation
Statement  sent to the  Unitholders  on  October  17,  1997 (and  filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on the same date under cover of Schedule 14A)
upon the completion of the sale. In November 1997, the Unitholders  consented to
the sale of the Partnership's real estate assets and the subsequent  liquidation
of the  Partnership  with sixty percent of the total  outstanding  Units cast in
favor  of  such  proposal.  However;  in  December  1997,  the  General  Partner
determined  that it would be in the best interest of the  Partnership to rescind
the  agreement  for the sale of the real  estate  assets.  The  General  Partner
experienced greater than anticipated opposition to the timing of the sale by the
Limited  Partners who voted against (11% of the  outstanding  Units),  abstained
from  (1% of  the  outstanding  Units),  or  did  not  respond  to  (27%  of the
outstanding Units) the proposal. In addition,  the General Partner,  sensing the
beginning of positive  changes in the real estate market,  believed that holding
the  Partnership's  real estate  assets for an  additional  period of time would
provide the Partnership with the opportunity to recognize an appreciation in its
value.

As part of the  Partnership's  agreement with the Buyer to rescind the agreement
for the sale of real estate assets, the Partnership granted to the Buyer a right
to match offers for the purchase of the Partnership's  properties ("GLB Matching
Right").  Pursuant to the GLB Matching Right, the Partnership  agreed that if it
decided  to  sell  all or any  portion  of the  properties,  it  would  do so by
requesting  multiple party offers, and upon its decision to accept an offer, the
Partnership  is required to give prompt written notice to the Buyer of the price
and other terms and conditions of the offer upon which it is willing to sell the
properties. The Buyer has ten days after receipt of the written notice to accept
or reject the purchase  price and other terms and conditions of the sale. If the
Buyer exercises its matching right,  the Partnership and the Buyer must promptly
execute a purchase



                                  Page 2 of 49
<PAGE>


agreement,  and if on the other hand, the Buyer notifies the Partnership that it
does  not  intend  to,  or fails  to  respond  within  the ten day  period,  the
Partnership  has the right to sell the  properties to the third party offerer on
the identical terms and conditions as set forth in the  Partnership's  notice to
Buyer.

The General  Partner  currently plans to seek the Limited  Partners'  consent to
sell  all  of  the   Partnership's   remaining   properties  and  liquidate  the
Partnership. The General Partner hopes to mail consent solicitation materials to
the  Limited  Partners in the second  quarter of 1999 and has filed  preliminary
consent  solicitation  materials with the United States  Securities and Exchange
Commission  (the  "Commission").   Assuming  a  proposal  to  sell  all  of  the
Partnership's remaining properties and liquidate the Partnership is submitted to
and approved by the Limited  Partners,  the General Partner currently intends to
sell all of the  Partnership's  remaining  properties in 1999 and distribute the
proceeds and liquidate the Partnership  after all of the properties are sold and
the cash proceeds thereof  received,  which is not expected to occur prior to at
least  early  to  mid-2000  (and  potentially  not  until  2001)  as some of the
properties may be sold with the purchase price payable on an installment basis.

The  Partnership  has not, as of the date of the filing of this Annual Report on
Form 10-K with the  Commission,  entered into any  agreement for the sale of its
remaining properties. If the Limited Partners consent to the Partnership selling
all of its  remaining  properties  and then  liquidating,  the  General  Partner
currently  intends to offer the Partnership's  remaining  properties for sale by
soliciting bids from various potential purchasers.

The  discussion  above  contains   forward-looking   statements   regarding  the
Partnership's plans, goals and expectations,  including statements regarding the
Partnership's estimate of the timing of the sale of the Partnership's  remaining
properties, the distribution of proceeds and the liquidation of the Partnership.
Forward-looking  statements  are  necessarily  speculative,  there being certain
risks and  uncertainties  that could  cause  actual  events or results to differ
materially from those referred to in the forward-looking statements. The General
Partners' current plans are subject to change, including in the event of changes
in general business and economic conditions as well as changes in the local real
estate markets where the Partnership's  properties are located.  There can be no
assurance  that  regulatory  approval  will be  obtained,  if and  when  consent
solicitation  materials will be mailed to Limited Partners,  that a proposal for
the sale of all of the Partnership's remaining properties and liquidation of the
Partnership  will be approved,  or if and when the properties  will be sold, the
proceeds distributed and the Partnership  liquidated.  The timing of any sale of
the Partnership's  remaining properties,  the distribution of proceeds,  and the
liquidation  of  the   Partnership   are  subject  to  various  and  significant
uncertainties,  many of which are beyond  the  Partnership's  control  and which
could delay any sale of the Partnership's  remaining properties,  liquidation of
the  Partnership,  and  distribution of proceeds  significantly  beyond the time
periods estimated above.  Among such uncertainties are the date when any consent
solicitation materials are mailed to the Limited partners, the date when consent
of the Limited  Partners is obtained  (assuming it is obtained),  the demand for
the  Partnership's  properties  by potential  purchasers,  the  availability  of
capital for potential purchasers, the actual dates when properties are sold, and
the duration of any installment sales of any of the properties.

If a proposal for the sale of the  Partnership's  properties and  liquidation of
the  Partnership  is submitted to the Limited  Partners,  but not approved,  the
Partnership  currently intends to continue to operate the properties and attempt
to sell such  properties in single or multiple  sales and develop  properties it
believes are developable and would improve its return on investment.

At December 31,  1998,  the  Partnership  owned ten rental  properties  totaling
approximately 452,000 square feet of space in a master-planned development known
as  Tri-City  Corporate  Centre  ("Tri-City")  in  San  Bernardino,  California.
Tri-City is zoned for mixed commercial,  office, hotel,  transportation-related,
and light industrial uses and all of the parcels thereof are separately owned by
the Partnership and Rancon Realty Fund V ("Fund V"), a partnership  sponsored by
the general partners of the  Partnership.  At December 31, 1998, the Partnership
also owned for development or sale  approximately  23.0 acres in Tri-City,  24.8
acres in Lake  Elsinore,  California,  17.14  acres in  Perris,  California  and
approximately 1.80 acres in Temecula, California.

Competition Within the Market

The  Partnership  competes in the leasing and sale of its  properties  primarily
with other available  properties in the local real estate market.  Management is
not aware of any specific  competitors  of the  Partnership's  properties  doing
business on a significant  scale in the local market.  Management  believes that
characteristics influencing the competitiveness of a real estate project are the
geographic location of the property, the professionalism of the property manager
and the  maintenance  and  appearance of the  property,  in addition to external
factors such as general  economic  circumstances,  trends,  and the existence of
new, competing properties in the vicinity.  Additional  competitive factors with
respect to commercial  and  industrial  properties are the ease of access to the
property,  the adequacy of related facilities,  such as parking, and the ability
to provide rent  concessions  and tenant  improvements  commensurate  with local
market conditions.  Although management believes the Partnership  properties are
competitive   with  comparable   properties  as  to  those  factors  within  the
Partnership's control,  over-building and other external factors could adversely
affect  the  ability of the  Partnership  to attract  and  retain  tenants.  The
marketability  of the  properties  may also be affected  (either  positively  or
negatively)  by these factors as well as by changes in general or local economic
conditions,  including  prevailing  interest  rates.  Depending  on  market  and
economic conditions,  the Partnership may be required to retain ownership of its
properties for periods longer than anticipated, or may need to sell earlier than
anticipated  or  refinance a property,  at a time or under terms and  conditions
that are less  advantageous  than would be the case if  unfavorable  economic or
market conditions did not exist.

Working Capital

The  Partnership's  practice is to maintain  cash  reserves for normal  repairs,
replacements,  working capital and other contingencies. The Partnership knows of
no  statistical  information,  which allows  comparison  of its cash reserves to
those of its competitors.

Other Factors

Approximately  15 acres  of the  Tri-City  Corporate  Centre  land  owned by the
Partnership was part of a landfill  operated by the City of San Bernardino ("the
City")  from  approximately  1950 to 1960.  There  are no  records  of which the
Partnership is aware disclosing that hazardous wastes exist at the landfill. The
Partnership's  landfill  monitoring  program  currently  meets  or  exceeds  all
regulatory  requirements and no material capital expenditures have been incurred
with respect  thereto.  The  Partnership is working with the Santa Ana Region of
the California  Regional  Water Quality  Control Board and the City to determine
the  need and  responsibility  for any  further  testing.  There  is no  current
requirement to ultimately clean up the site;  however,  no assurance can be made
that   circumstances  will  not  arise  which  could  impact  the  Partnership's
responsibility related to the property.

Item 2.     Properties

Tri-City Corporate Center

Between December 24, 1984 and August 19, 1985, the Partnership  acquired a total
of 76.56 acres of partially developed land in Tri-City for an aggregate purchase
price of $9,917,000. During that time, Fund V acquired the remaining 76.21 acres
within Tri-City.

Tri-City  is  located  at  the  northeastern  quadrant  of the  intersection  of
Interstate 10 (San Bernardino  Freeway) and Waterman Avenue in the  southernmost
part of the City of San  Bernardino,  and is in the heart of the Inland  Empire,
the most densely populated area of San Bernardino and Riverside Counties.

The Partnership has constructed and owns the following ten operating  properties
in Tri-City:

          Property                            Type                   Square Feet
 ----------------------------   ----------------------------------   -----------

 Office Max                     Retail building                         23,500
 Mimi's Cafe                    Restaurant                               6,455

These  properties total  approximately  452,000 leasable square feet and offer a
wide range of retail, commercial, R & D and office products to the market.

The Inland Empire is generally broken down into two major markets, Inland Empire
East and Inland Empire West.  Tri-City  Corporate  Centre is located  within the
Inland Empire East market,  which consists of a total of 10,440,330  square feet
of office space and an overall vacancy rate of approximately  25% as of December
31, 1998, according to research conducted by an independent broker.

Within the Tri-City  Corporate  Centre at December 31, 1998, the Partnership has
223,855 square feet of office space with an average  vacancy rate of 3%, 165,509
square  feet of retail  space  with an  average  vacancy  rate of 12% and 62,539
square feet of R & D space with a vacancy rate of 22%.

In 1998,  management  renewed four leases  totaling 15,089 square feet of space,
expanded  three  existing  tenants by 10,340 square feet and executed  three new
leases totaling 12,458 square feet of space. Slightly offsetting these increases
in occupancy were the vacancy of five tenants,  which occupied a total of 11,001
square feet of space. During 1999, there are seven leases totaling 17,748 square
feet that are due to  expire.  Management  believes  that at least two  tenants,
occupying a total of 3,079 square feet will vacate when their  leases  expire in
1999. The remaining five tenants  occupying an aggregate 14,669 square feet have
not indicated whether they will renew their lease or vacate the premises.

The annual effective rent per square foot for the years ended December 31, 1998,
1997, 1996 and October 31, 1995 were as follows:

Annual  effective  rent is  calculated  by dividing the  aggregate of annualized
current month rental income for each tenant by the total square feet occupied at
the property. At December 31, 1998, the Partnership's annual rental rates ranged
from  $13.62 to $22.80 per square  foot for  office  space;  $9.00 to $19.18 per
square foot for commercial  space; and $9.00 to $10.51 per square foot for R & D
space.

The annual  effective  rental  rate at Two  Vanderbilt  increased  by 8% in 1998
compared to 1997 due to the  expansion  of leased  space by an  existing  tenant
during 1998,  totaling 8,336 square feet. This expansion resulted in an increase
in the  occupancy  at this  property  from 93% at  December  31, 1997 to 100% at
December 31, 1998.

According  to research  conducted by the  Partnership's  property  manager,  the
average  annual  effective  rent  per  square  foot  for  office  space  in  the
Partnership's competitive market ranges from $13.08 to $20.16. Since there is no
comparable R & D space or measurable  commercial  space available in the market,
management  determines  the asking rents based on discussions  with  independent
leasing brokers.

During 1998, the  Partnership  determined  that the carrying value of the Inland
Regional  Center rental  property was in excess of its estimated  fair value and
accordingly recorded a provision for impairment of $1,482,000.

The  Partnership's  Tri-City  properties  had the following  seven tenants which
occupied a significant portion of the net rentable square footage as of December
31, 1998:

During 1998, the Partnership's Tri-City rental properties were assessed $541,000
in property taxes based on an average  realty tax rate of 1.80% (which  includes
 .69% in additional assessments).

Tri-City Land

Approximately 23 acres of the Tri-City property owned by the Partnership  remain
undeveloped.  The  Partnership's  intention has been to develop  parcels of this
land as tenants become  available or dispose of the property at the optimal time
and sales price. During 1998, management determined that the



                                                  Page 8 of 49
<PAGE>


carrying  value of the land was in  excess  of its  estimated  fair  value  and,
accordingly, recorded a provision for impairment of the real estate of $129,000.

During 1998, the  Partnership's  Tri-City land was assessed $304,000 in property
taxes  based on an average  realty tax rate of 5.53%  (which  includes  4.42% in
additional assessments and bonds).

Shadowridge Woodbend Apartments

On June 26, 1987, the Partnership acquired a 240-unit apartment complex known as
Shadowridge  Woodbend Apartments  ("Shadowridge") in an all cash transaction for
$12,850,000.

On June 4, 1998, the Partnership sold Shadowridge to an unaffiliated  entity for
$16,075,000.  The  Partnership  recognized  a gain  on the  sale  of the  rental
property of $5,468,000 and realized net proceeds of $9,806,000  after paying off
the related secured debt.

Lake Elsinore Property

In 1988, the Partnership acquired 17 parcels,  totaling approximately 24.8 acres
in  Lake  Elsinore,  Riverside  County,  California  for  a  purchase  price  of
$4,475,000.  The property is  immediately  west of  Interstate  15 near the Lake
Elsinore Outlet Center.  The undeveloped  property is  commercially  zoned.  The
Partnership  had  originally  planned  to  develop  this site as a  neighborhood
shopping  center,  however,  improvements  to the property have been put on hold
indefinitely.  A  tentative  parcel  map  expired  and  there is no  development
activity planned for the near future.

In the opinion of management, the property is adequately covered by insurance.

At December 31, 1998, the Lake Elsinore property is unencumbered.

During 1998, the Lake Elsinore  property was assessed  $37,000 in property taxes
based on an average realty tax rate of 1.71%.

Perris Property

In 1988, the  Partnership  acquired  17.14 acres of unimproved  land near Perris
Lake in Perris, Riverside County,  California at a purchase price of $3,000,000.
There has been no development of this property to date.

As of  December  31,  1997,  the Perris land had been  written  down to its then
estimated fair value of $1,386,000. During 1998, the Partnership determined that
the  carrying  value of the Perris land was  further  impaired  and  accordingly
recorded an additional provision for impairment of $1,086,000.

In December 1998, the  Partnership  entered into an agreement to sell the Perris
property to an unaffiliated  third party for $334,800,  before selling expenses.
On January 15, 1999, the Perris property was sold and the  Partnership  received
$297,000 of net sales proceeds,  which were added to cash reserves.  At December
31, 1998 and at the time of sale, the Perris property was unencumbered.





                                  Page 9 of 49
<PAGE>


During 1998, the Perris property was assessed $17,000 in property taxes based on
an average realty tax rate of 1.12%.

Temecula Property

In June 1992,  the  Partnership  acquired 12.4 acres of  undeveloped  commercial
property in Temecula,  Riverside County, California (referred to as Rancon Towne
Village).  On January 2, 1996,  a final map  approval was received to divide the
property into twelve parcels to accommodate  retail and commercial  development.
This enabled the  Partnership  to market  these  smaller  parcels for sale.  The
Partnership  completed the street utility and sewer  improvements  on this site,
which greatly  assisted in the marketing  efforts of the property.  In 1997, the
Partnership  sold nine of the Rancon Towne Village lots  totaling  approximately
8.53 acres for an aggregate sales price of $2,534,000.  On January 27, 1998, the
Partnership  sold one of the three  remaining  Rancon  Towne  Village lots to an
unaffiliated entity for $270,000.  The Partnership recognized an $11,000 loss on
the sale and realized net proceeds of $241,000.

In 1998,  management  determined  that the carrying  value of the two  remaining
Rancon  Towne  Village  lots was in  excess of its  estimated  fair  value  and,
accordingly, recorded a provision for impairment of real estate of $167,000.

At December 31, 1998, the Temecula property is unencumbered.

In the opinion of management, the property is adequately covered by insurance.

The  Partnership  is  contingently  liable for a  subordinated  note  payable in
connection  with  the  land  in  Temecula,   California,  that  the  Partnership
reacquired in June 1992 through a deed in lieu of foreclosure in satisfaction of
a $2,276,000 note receivable. The subordinated note payable and accrued interest
total $566,000 as of December 31, 1998.  This amount is payable upon the sale of
the property  only after the  Partnership  receives the full amount of the prior
note receivable with accrued and unpaid interest, costs of development, costs of
sale,  and other amounts paid to obtain good title to the  property,  subject to
certain release  provisions.  Since the circumstances under which this liability
would be payable are  limited,  the note payable and accrued  interest  have not
been recorded in the accompanying financial statements; however, the amount will
be recognized prior to recording any gain on the sale of the related land.

During 1998, the Temecula  property was assessed $12,000 in property taxes based
on an average realty tax rate of 3.22% (including 2.07% special  assessments and
bonds).

Item 5.   Market for Partnership's Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters

Market Information

There is no established trading market for the Units issued by the Partnership.

Holders

As of December 31, 1998, there were 10,952 holders of Partnership Units.

Distributions

Distributions  are paid from either Cash From  Operations  or Cash From Sales or
Refinancing (as such terms are defined in the Partnership Agreement).

On November 30,  1998,  the  Partnership  declared  and paid a  distribution  of
$40,000  and   $3,960,000   to  the  General   Partner  and  Limited   Partners,
respectively,  which resulted from the gain on sale of the Shadowridge  Woodbend
Apartments.  There were no  distributions  made by the  Partnership  in 1997 and
1996.

Cash from Operations  includes all cash receipts from operations in the ordinary
course  of  business  (except  for the  sale,  refinancing,  exchange  or  other
disposition of real property in the ordinary course of business) after deducting
payments for operating  expenses.  All distributions of Cash From Operations are
paid  in the  ratio  of  90% to the  Limited  Partners  and  10% to the  General
Partners.

Cash From Sales or Refinancing is the net cash realized by the Partnership  from
the sale,  disposition  or  refinancing  of any  property  after  retirement  of
applicable  mortgage debt and all expenses related to the transaction,  together
with  interest  on any notes  taken back by the  Partnership  upon the sale of a
property. All distributions of Cash
From Sales or  Refinancing  are  generally  allocated as follows:  (i) first,  1
percent to the General Partner and 99 percent to the Limited  Partners until the
Limited  Partners have received an amount equal to their capital  contributions,
plus a 12 percent return on their unreturned capital  contributions  (less prior
distributions  of Cash from  Operations);  (ii) second,  to Limited Partners who
purchased their units of limited partnership interest prior to April 1, 1985, to
the extent they receive an  additional  return  (depending  on the date on which
they  purchased the units) on their  unreturned  capital of either 9 percent,  6
percent or 3 percent  (calculated through October 31, 1985); and (iii) third, 20
percent to the General  Partner and 80 percent to the Limited  Partners.  A more
explicit  statement  of  these  distribution   policies  is  set  forth  in  the
Partnership Agreement.

Item 7.     Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial Condition and
            Results of Operations

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The  following  discussions  should be read in  conjunction  with the  financial
statements and the notes thereto in Item 14 of Part IV.

At December 31, 1998,  the  Partnership  had cash of  $4,297,000  (exclusive  of
$369,000  in  restricted  cash).  The  remainder  of  the  Partnership's  assets
consisted   primarily  of  its  net   investments   in  real  estate,   totaling
approximately  $38,097,000  which  includes  $33,781,000  in rental  properties,
$1,575,000 of land held for development and $2,741,000 of undeveloped  land held
for sale.

The  Partnership's   business  strategy  has  been  to  focus  on  the  eventual
disposition  of its assets at the optimal time and sales price.  As discussed in
Item 1, the  General  Partner  currently  plans to seek  the  Limited  Partners'
consent to sell all of the Partnership's  remaining properties and liquidate the
Partnership,  and the General Partner has filed preliminary consent solicitation
materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

In 1998 and 1997,  management  determined  that the  carrying  values of certain
Partnership's  investments  in real  estate  were in excess  of such  property's
estimated  fair value  and,  accordingly,  recorded  provisions  for  impairment
totaling $2,864,000 and $947,000 in 1998 and 1997, respectively.



                                                      Page 12 of 49
<PAGE>


Operationally,  the  Partnership's  primary  sources  of funds  consist  of cash
provided by its rental activities.  Other sources of funds may include permanent
financing,  property sales, interest income on certificates of deposit and other
deposits of funds invested  temporarily.  Cash generated from property sales are
generally added to the Partnership's  cash reserves,  pending use in development
of other properties, or are distributed to the partners.

The  Partnership's  restricted  cash at December 31, 1998 consists of a $269,000
certificate  of deposit ("CD") for Inland  Regional  Center's  security  deposit
("IRC CD") and a $100,000 CD held as collateral for subdivision improvements and
monument bonds related to the land for sale in Temecula,  California  ("Temecula
CD").  Pursuant to the lease, the IRC CD will be converted to prepaid rent after
the 60th month of the lease and will be applied  towards the IRC's  monthly rent
until  exhausted,  provided  that IRC is not in  default  of the  lease  and IRC
receives  a  five-year  extension  for its  contract  term  with  the  State  of
California.  Management is currently working with the City of Temecula to obtain
release of the  Temecula  CD, or reduce the  collateral  to cover the costs of a
traffic signal  installation  within the property  ("Traffic  Signal  Mitigation
Cost"). The Traffic Signal Mitigation Cost is approximately $25,000.

The  Partnership's  improved  cash  position  at December  31, 1998  compared to
December 31, 1997 is primarily due to the net proceeds (after  repayment of debt
and  distributions  to  partners)  from  the  sale of the  Shadowridge  Woodbend
Apartment complex in June 1998.

The  Partnership  is  contingently  liable for a  subordinated  note  payable in
connection  with  the  land  in  Temecula,   California,  that  the  Partnership
reacquired in June 1992 through a deed in lieu of foreclosure in satisfaction of
a $2,276,000 note receivable. The subordinated note payable and accrued interest
total $566,000 as of December 31, 1998.  This amount is payable upon the sale of
the property  only after the  Partnership  receives the full amount of the prior
note receivable with accrued and unpaid interest, costs of development, costs of
sale,  and other amounts paid to obtain good title to the  property,  subject to
certain release  provisions.  Since the circumstances under which this liability
would be payable are  limited,  the note payable and accrued  interest  have not
been recorded in the accompanying financial statements; however, the amount will
be recognized prior to recording any gain on the sale of the related land.

The Partnership also remains  contingently  liable for subordinated  real estate
commissions payable to the General Partner in the amount of $643,000 at December
31, 1998 for sales that  transpired in previous  years.  The  subordinated  real
estate  commissions  are payable only after the Limited  Partners  have received
distributions  equal  to  their  original  invested  capital  plus a  cumulative
non-compounded return of 6% per annum on their adjusted invested capital.  Since
the  circumstances  under which these  commissions would be payable are limited,
the liability has not been recognized in the accompanying  financial statements;
however, the amount will be recorded when and if it becomes payable.

Aside from the  foregoing  and the current plan to  potentially  sell all of the
Partnership's   remaining   properties  and  liquidate  the   Partnership,   the
Partnership knows of no demands,  commitments,  events or  uncertainties,  which
might effect its  liquidity or capital  resources  in any material  respect.  In
addition,  the  Partnership  is not  subject to any  covenants  pursuant  to its
secured debt that would constrain its ability to obtain additional capital.




                                 Page 13 of 49
<PAGE>


Management  believes that the Partnership's cash balance as of December 31, 1998
together with the cash from operations,  sales and financing, will be sufficient
to finance  the  Partnership's  and the  properties'  continued  operations  and
development  plans,  on a short-term  basis and for the  reasonably  foreseeable
future.  There can be no assurance that the Partnership's  results of operations
will not  fluctuate  in the future and at times  affect its  ability to meet its
operating requirements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

1998 versus 1997

Revenue

Rental  income for the year ended  December  31, 1998  decreased  $597,000 or 8%
compared to the year ended  December 31, 1997  primarily as a result of the loss
of rental income due to the June 1998 sale of  Shadowridge  Woodbend  Apartments
("Shadowridge").  This decrease was offset by the commencement of the operations
of Office Max in October 1998 and the increased occupancy at One Vanderbilt, Two
Vanderbilt, Carnegie Business Center I, and Promotional Retail Center.

Occupancy  rates at the  Partnership's  Tri-City  properties  as of December 31,
1998, 1997 and 1996, and October 31, 1995 and 1994 were as follows:

                                      1998      1997      1996     1995    1994

The eleven-percent  increase in occupancy from December 31, 1997 to December 31,
1998 at One  Vanderbilt  is  attributed  to leasing  15,946 square feet to a new
tenant and expanding the leased space of an existing tenant.

The  seven-percent  increase in occupancy from December 31, 1997 to December 31,
1998 at Two  Vanderbilt is attributed to the expansion of the leased space of an
existing tenant.

The  nine-percent  increase in occupancy  from December 31, 1997 to December 31,
1998 at Carnegie Business Center I is attributed to leasing of 3,221 square feet
of space to a new tenant and expanding another lease by 1,608 square feet.

The  construction  of Office Max and Mimi's  Cafe,  23,500 and 6,455 square feet
build-to-suit   retail  buildings,   were  completed  during  1998,  with  lease
commencements on October 15, 1998 and January 4, 1999, respectively.



                                 Page 14 of 49
<PAGE>


In 1998,  tenants at Tri-City  occupying  substantial  portions of leased rental
space  included:  (i) Inland Empire Health Plan with a lease through March 2002;
(ii) CompUSA with a lease through August 2003;  (iii) ITT  Educational  Services
with a lease which expires in December 2004;  (iv) PetsMart with a lease through
January 2009; (v) Inland  Regional  Center with a lease through July 2009;  (vi)
Circuit  City with a lease  through  January  2018;  and (vii) Office Max with a
lease through  October 2013.  These seven tenants,  in the  aggregate,  occupied
approximately  269,000 square feet of the 452,000 total leasable  square feet at
Tri-City and account for  approximately  54% of the rental  income  generated at
Tri-City and 47% of the total rental income for the Partnership in 1998.

The gain on sale of rental property  resulted from the sale of Shadowridge for a
sales price of $16,075,000.

Interest  and other  income  for the year  ended  December  31,  1998  increased
$218,000  from the year ended  December  31, 1997 as a result of the increase in
cash reserves resulting from the sales proceeds of Shadowridge.

Expenses

Operating  expenses decreased $376,000 or 12% during the year ended December 31,
1998  compared  to  the  year  ended  December  31,  1997  due to  the  sale  of
Shadowridge.

Interest  expense  decreased  $236,000 or 13% during the year ended December 31,
1998  compared  to the year  ended  December  31,  1997 due to the payoff of the
$5,800,000, 7.95% fixed rate loan secured by Shadowridge.

Depreciation  and amortization  decreased  $330,000 or 19% during the year ended
December 31, 1998 compared to the year ended  December 31, 1997 primarily due to
ceasing  depreciation  on  Shadowridge  upon  classification  of the property as
rental property held for sale effective December 31, 1997.

In 1998 and 1997,  management  determined  that the carrying value of certain of
the  Partnership's  investments  in real estate were in excess of the  estimated
fair value of such property and, accordingly, recorded provisions for impairment
of real estate  investments of $2,864,000 and $947,000,  respectively.  The fair
values were based on independent appraisals of the Partnership's real estate.

The  Partnership  made the following  provisions to reduce the carrying value of
investments  in real estate for the years ended  December  31, 1998 and December
31, 1997:

                                                  1998                 1997

The loss on sales of real estate of $11,000  during the year ended  December 31,
1998 resulted from the sale of one parcel in Rancon Towne  Village.  The loss on
sales of real  estate of  $253,000  during  the year  ended  December  31,  1997
resulted from the sale of eight parcels in Rancon Towne Village.

Expenses  associated with undeveloped land decreased  $260,000 or 38% during the
year ended  December 31, 1998  compared to the year ended  December 31, 1997 due
to: (i) the reduction of property  taxes  resulting from the sale of ten parcels
in Rancon Towne  Village  during the period from July 1997 through  December 31,
1998; (ii) the  capitalization of expenses during the construction of Office Max
and Mimi's Cafe in 1998; and (iii) the decrease of maintenance  association dues
in 1998.

The  $102,000  and  $445,000  of  proposed  dissolution  costs in 1998 and 1997,
respectively,  were for work performed and expenses incurred while exploring the
possibilities  of having  the  Partnership  sell all of its real  estate  assets
followed by a liquidation. See Item 1 of Part I for further details.

1997 versus 1996

Revenue

Rental income for the year ended December 31, 1997  increased  $2,126,000 or 41%
compared to the year ended  December 31, 1996  primarily as a result of: (i) the
commencement  of operations  of the Inland  Regional  Center in June 1996;  (ii)
ground  lease  revenue  earned  from  Circuit  City  as the  project  was  under
construction from September 1996 through May 1997; (iii) the commencement of the
Circuit  City  operating  lease in May  1997;  (iv) the  acquisition  of the TGI
Friday's  property  in  February  1997;  (v)  the  increased  occupancy  at  Two
Vanderbilt;  and (vi) the general  increased  rental  rates at most  properties.
These  sources of  increased  revenue  were  slightly  offset with a decrease in
rental income associated with decreases in occupancy at Carnegie Business Center
I and One Vanderbilt.

Interest and other income for the year ended December 31, 1997 decreased $42,000
or 65% from the year ended  December 31, 1996 as a result of the  elimination of
the interest  income on the $405,000 note receivable that was retired as part of
the acquisition of TGI Friday's on February 28, 1997.

Expenses

Operating  expenses increased $524,000 or 20% during the year ended December 31,
1997  compared to the year ended  December  31, 1996 due to: (i) the addition of
Inland Regional Center as an operating  property in June 1996; (ii) the addition
of TGI Friday's as an operating property in February 1997; (iii) the addition of
Circuit City as an operating  property in May 1997;  (iv) increased  utility and
operational expenses related to increased occupancy at selected properties;  and
(v) property tax refunds received in 1996.

Depreciation  and amortization  increased  $299,000 or 21% during the year ended
December 31, 1997 compared



                                 Page 16 of 49
<PAGE>


to the year ended December 31, 1996  primarily as a result of the  acquisition /
commencement  of  operations  of the Inland  Regional  Center,  TGI Friday's and
Circuit City properties as well as additions to tenant  improvements  associated
with new leases over the past year.

Interest expense increased $1,095,000 or 138% during the year ended December 31,
1997  compared  to the year ended  December  31,  1996 due to the  Partnership's
increased permanent debt to finance selected properties during 1997 and 1996. In
addition,  in 1996 some of the land was under  development and accordingly,  the
Partnership capitalized $597,000 of interest costs.

In 1997, management determined that the carrying value of the Partnership's land
held for  development  and the land held for sale was in excess of the estimated
fair value of such property and, accordingly, recorded provisions for impairment
of real estate investments in the aggregate amount of $947,000.  The fair values
were based on independent appraisals of the Partnership's real estate.

During the year ended December 31, 1997, the Partnership  recognized $253,000 in
losses on sales of the eight parcels in Rancon Towne Village.

Expenses  associated with undeveloped land increased  $107,000 or 19% during the
year ended  December 31, 1997 compared to the year ended  December 31, 1996, due
in large part to the  capitalization  of  expenses  the during  construction  of
Circuit City and Rancon Towne Village in 1996. No such  provisions were recorded
in 1996.

The $445,000 for proposed  dissolution  costs in 1997 was for work performed and
expenses  incurred while exploring the  possibilities  of having the Partnership
sell all of its real estate assets and then liquidate. The proposed transactions
were detailed in a Consent  Solicitation  Statement,  sent to the Unitholders on
October 17, 1997, (and filed with the Securities and Exchange  Commission on the
same date under cover of Schedule 14A).

Year 2000 Compliance

State of Readiness.  Glenborough  Corporation  (Glenborough),  the Partnership's
asset and property manager,  utilizes a number of computer software programs and
operating  systems.  These programs and systems primarily  comprise  information
technology  systems  ("IT  Systems")  (i.e.,   software  programs  and  computer
operating   systems)  that  serve  the  management   operations.   Although  the
Partnership  does not  utilize  any  significant  IT Systems of its own, it does
utilize embedded systems such as devices used to control,  monitor or assist the
operation  of equipment  and  machinery  systems  (e.g.,  HVAC,  fire safety and
security) at its properties  ("Property  Systems").  To the extent that software
applications contain a source code that is unable to appropriately interpret the
upcoming  calendar  year  "2000"  and  beyond,  some  level of  modification  or
replacement of these IT Systems and Property Systems will be necessary.

IT  Systems.  Employing  a team made up of internal  personnel  and  third-party
consultants,   Glenborough  has  completed  an  identification  of  IT  Systems,
including hardware components that are not yet Year 2000 compliant.  To the best
of Glenborough's knowledge based on available information and a reasonable level
of inquiry and  investigation,  such upgrading as appears to be called for under
the  circumstances  has been completed in accordance  with  prevailing  industry
practice.  Glenborough  has commenced a testing  program which will be completed
during 1999. In addition, the Partnership is currently  communicating with third
parties with whom it does significant business,  such as financial institutions,
tenants and vendors, to determine their readiness for Year 2000 compliance.




                                 Page 17 of 49
<PAGE>


Property Systems.  An identification  of Property  Systems,  including  hardware
components,  that are not yet Year  2000  compliant,  has also  been  completed.
Upgrading  of such  systems as appears to be called for under the  circumstances
based  on  available   information  and  a  reasonable   level  of  inquiry  and
investigation,   and  in  accordance  with  prevailing   industry  practice  has
commenced.  Upon  completion  of  such  upgrading,  a  testing  program  will be
initiated and completed during 1999. To the best of Glenborough's knowledge, the
Partnership has no Property Systems,  the failure of which would have a material
effect on its operations.

Costs of Addressing Year 2000 issues.  Given the information  known at this time
about systems that are  non-compliant,  coupled with ongoing,  normal  course-of
business  efforts to upgrade or replace  critical  systems,  as  necessary,  the
Partnership  does not  expect  Year  2000  compliance  costs to have a  material
adverse impact on its liquidity or ongoing  results of operations.  The costs of
assessment  and  remediation  of  the  Property  Systems  will  be  paid  by the
Partnership as an operating expense.

Risks of Year 2000 issues.  In light of the assessment and upgrading  efforts to
date, and assuming completion of the planned, normal course-of-business upgrades
and subsequent  testing,  the  Partnership  believes that any residual Year 2000
risk will be limited to non-critical business applications and support hardware,
and to short-term  interruptions affecting Property Systems which, if they occur
at  all,  will  not be  material  to  overall  operations.  Glenborough  and the
Partnership  believe that all IT Systems and Property  Systems will be Year 2000
compliant and that  compliance will not materially  adversely  affect its future
liquidity  or results of  operations  or its ability to service  debt.  However,
absolute assurance that this is the case cannot be given.

Contingency  Plans.  The Partnership is currently  developing a contingency plan
for all  operations  which will  address the most  reasonably  likely worst case
scenario regarding Year 2000 compliance.  Such a plan,  however,  will recognize
material  limitations  on the ability to respond to major regional or industrial
failures such as power outages or communications breakdowns.  Management expects
such a contingency plan to be completed during 1999.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


To the Partners of
RANCON REALTY FUND IV, A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP:

We have audited the  accompanying  consolidated  balance sheets of RANCON REALTY
FUND IV, A CALIFORNIA  LIMITED  PARTNERSHIP as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and
the related statements of operations,  partners' equity (deficit) and cash flows
for the  years  ended  December  31,  1998,  1997 and 1996.  These  consolidated
financial  statements and the schedule referred to below are the  responsibility
of the Partnership's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these consolidated financial statements and schedule based on our audits.

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, the consolidated  financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects,  the consolidated financial position of RANCON
REALTY FUND IV, A CALIFORNIA  LIMITED  PARTNERSHIP,  as of December 31, 1998 and
1997 and the  results of its  operations  and its cash flows for the years ended
December  31,  1998,  1997 and  1996,  in  conformity  with  generally  accepted
accounting principles.

Our  audits  were  made for the  purpose  of  forming  an  opinion  on the basic
consolidated  financial  statements taken as a whole. The accompanying  schedule
listed in the index to  financial  statements  and  schedule  is  presented  for
purposes of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and is
not a  required  part  of the  basic  consolidated  financial  statements.  This
information has been subjected to the auditing  procedures applied in our audits
of the basic consolidated  financial  statements and, in our opinion,  is fairly
stated in all material respects in relation to the basic consolidated  financial
statements taken as a whole.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                           December 31, 1998 and 1997


Note 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization

Rancon Realty Fund IV, a California Limited  Partnership,  ("the  Partnership"),
was  organized in  accordance  with the  provisions  of the  California  Uniform
Limited  Partnership Act for the purpose of acquiring,  developing and operating
real property.  The general partners of the Partnership are Daniel L. Stephenson
and Rancon Financial Corporation ("RFC"), hereinafter referred to as the Sponsor
or the  General  Partner.  RFC is  wholly-owned  by  Daniel L.  Stephenson.  The
Partnership reached final funding in July 1987. As of December 31, 1997, a total
of 2,946 limited  partnership  units ("Units") were repurchased and retired as a
result of the Partnership's  offer to redeem limited  partnership units.  During
the year ended December 31, 1998, an additional 287 Units were  repurchased  and
retired resulting in 76,767 Units outstanding as of December 31, 1998.

The General  Partner  currently plans to seek the Limited  Partners'  consent to
sell all of the Partnership's remaining properties and liquidate the Partnership
and has filed preliminary consent solicitation  materials with the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission with the goal of mailing consent solicitation
materials  to the  Limited  Partners in the second  quarter of 1999.  Assuming a
proposal to sell all of the Partnership's remaining properties and liquidate the
Partnership  is submitted to and approved by the limited  partners,  the General
Partner currently intends to sell all of the Partnership's  remaining properties
in 1999 and distribute the proceeds and liquidate the  Partnership  after all of
the  properties  are sold and the cash  proceeds  thereof  received,  which  the
General  Partner  does not expect will occur prior to at least early to mid-2000
(and  potentially not until 2001) as some of the properties may be sold with the
purchase price payable on an installment basis.

The Partnership  has not, as of the date hereof,  entered into any agreement for
the sale of its remaining  properties.  If the limited  partners  consent to the
Partnership  selling all of its remaining  properties and then liquidating,  the
General  Partner  currently   intends  to  offer  the  Partnership's   remaining
properties for sale by soliciting bids from various potential purchasers.

If a proposal for the sale of the  Partnership's  properties and  liquidation of
the  Partnership  is submitted to the limited  partners,  but not approved,  the
Partnership  currently intends to continue to operate the properties and attempt
to sell such  properties in single or multiple  sales and develop  properties it
believes are developable and would improve its return on investment.

Allocation  of  profits  and  losses  are  made  pursuant  to the  terms  of the
Partnership Agreement. Generally, net income from operations is allocated 90% to
the limited partners and 10% to the general partners. Net losses from operations
are allocated 99% to the limited  partners and 1% to the general  partners until
such time as a partner's  capital account is reduced to zero.  Additional losses
will be allocated  entirely to those  partners  with  positive  capital  account
balances  until such  balances  are reduced to zero.  Net income  other than net
income from operations shall be allocated as follows: (i) first, to the partners
who have a deficit balance in their capital account,  provided that, in no event
shall the general  partners be  allocated  more than 5% of the net income  other
than net income  from

operations until the earlier of sale or disposition of substantially  all of the
assets or the  distribution of cash (other than cash from  operations)  equal to
the Unitholder's original invested capital; (ii) second, to the limited partners
in  proportion  to and to the extent of the  amounts to increase  their  capital
accounts to an amount equal to the sum of the adjusted invested capital of their
units plus an  additional  cumulative  non-compounded  6% return per annum (plus
additional amounts depending on the date Units were purchased);  (iii) third, to
the partners in the minimum  amount  required to first  equalize  their  capital
account in proportion  to the number of units owned,  and then, to bring the sum
of the balances of the capital  accounts of the limited partners and the general
partners  into the  ratio of 4 to 1; and (iv) the  balance,  if any,  80% to the
limited partners and 20% to the general partners.  In no event shall the general
partners be allocated less than 1% of the net income for any period.

General Partner and Management Matters

Effective  January 1, 1995,  Glenborough  Corporation  (successor by merger with
Glenborough Inland Realty Corporation) ("Glenborough") entered into an agreement
with the Partnership and other related Partnerships  (collectively,  "the Rancon
Partnerships") to perform or contract on the Partnership's behalf for financial,
accounting,  data processing,  marketing,  legal, investor relations,  asset and
development  management  and  consulting  services  for a period of ten years or
until the  liquidation  of the  Partnership,  whichever  comes first.  Effective
January  1,  1998,   the  agreement  was  amended  to  eliminate   Glenborough's
responsibility   for  providing   investor   relation   services  and  Preferred
Partnership  Services,  Inc., a  California  Corporation  unaffiliated  with the
Partnership, contracted to assume these services. In August 1998, the management
agreement  was further  amended to provide  Glenborough  with a  guarantee  of a
specified  amount of asset  management  and  property  management  fees  through
December 31, 1999, regardless of whether the Partnership sells any or all of its
properties  prior to such  date.  In  exchange,  Glenborough  waived any and all
claims  related to  liquidated  damages under the agreement to which it may have
otherwise been entitled.

According to the contract, the Partnership will pay Glenborough for its services
as follows: (i) a specified asset administration fee ($806,000 in 1998, $989,000
in 1997 and $993,000 in 1996); (ii) sales fees of 2% for improved properties and
4% for land;  (iii) a refinancing  fee of 1% and (iv) a management  fee of 5% of
gross  rental  receipts.  As part of this  agreement,  Glenborough  will perform
certain duties for the General Partner of the Rancon Partnerships. RFC agreed to
cooperate with Glenborough, should Glenborough attempt to obtain a majority vote
of the  limited  partners  to  substitute  itself as the  Sponsor for the Rancon
Partnerships. Glenborough is not an affiliate of RFC or the Partnership.

Note 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Accounting - The accompanying  financial  statements have been prepared
on the  accrual  basis of  accounting  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles  under the presumption that the Partnership will continue
as a going concern.

                             RANCON REALTY FUND IV,
                        A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                           December 31, 1998 and 1997


The consent of the  Unitholders  to a proposal to sell all of the  Partnership's
remaining   properties  and  liquidate  the  Partnership  will  not  impact  the
accounting  treatment  applied by the  Partnership  in its financial  statements
prepared in accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles as the
liquidation  proceeds and the timing  thereof are not currently  estimable.  The
Partnership  will classify as "held for use" or "held for  development",  all of
its operating and undeveloped  properties until such time as an acceptable buyer
is  identified  and an offer  which is  reasonably  assured of  consummation  is
obtained. At that time, the Partnership will reclassify the appropriate portions
of its  assets  to "held  for sale" and  depreciation  of those  assets  will be
discontinued.

When the sale  price and  timing of the last  property  disposal  is  reasonably
determinable,  the Partnership will adopt  liquidation  basis accounting in that
quarter.  At that time,  all assets and  liabilities  will be  adjusted to their
settlement  amounts  and an amount to be  distributed  to the  Unitholders  upon
liquidation will be estimated.

Use of Estimates - The  preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with
generally accepted  accounting  principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions  that effect the reported  amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of  contingent  assets and  liabilities  at the date of the financial
statements and the reported results of operations  during the reporting  period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Risks and Uncertainties - The Partnership's ability to (i) achieve positive cash
flow  from   operations,   (ii)  meet  its  debt   obligations,   (iii)  provide
distributions  either  from  operations  or  the  ultimate  disposition  of  the
Partnership's properties or (iv) continue as a going concern, may be impacted by
changes in interest rates, property values,  geographic economic conditions,  or
the entry of other  competitors  into the  market.  The  accompanying  financial
statements do not provide for adjustments with regard to these uncertainties.

New Accounting  Pronouncement - In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board issued  Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 131 (SFAS 131),
"Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related  Information." SFAS 131
is  effective  for fiscal  years  beginning  after  December  15,  1997.  As the
Partnership  operates in only one  geographic  location  and one  industry,  and
allocates  resources  solely for the optimization of the  Partnership's  overall
return,   management  has  determined  that  no  additional  disclosure  in  the
Partnership's financial statements is necessary.

Rental Property - Rental  properties,  including the related land, are stated at
cost unless events or circumstances  indicate that cost cannot be recovered,  in
which case,  the carrying value of the property is reduced to its estimated fair
value.  Estimated fair value: (i) is based upon the Partnership's  plans for the
continued  operations of each  property;  and (ii) is computed  using  estimated
sales price, as determined by prevailing market values for comparable properties
and/or the use of  capitalization  rates multiplied by annualized  rental income
based upon the age, construction and use of the building. The fulfillment of the
Partnership's  plans related to each of its properties is dependent upon,  among
other  things,  the  presence  of  economic  conditions  which  will  enable the
Partnership  to  continue  to hold and  operate  the  properties  prior to their
eventual sale. Due to uncertainties inherent in the valuation process

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                           December 31, 1998 and 1997


and in the  economy,  it is  reasonably  possible  that the  actual  results  of
operating  and  disposing of the  Partnership's  properties  could be materially
different than current expectations.

Depreciation is provided using the straight line method over the useful lives of
the respective assets.

Land Held for  Development - Land held for  development is stated at cost unless
events or circumstances indicate that cost cannot be recovered in which case the
carrying value is reduced to estimated fair value.  Estimated fair value: (i) is
based on the Partnership's  plans for the development of each property;  (ii) is
computed using  estimated  sales price,  based upon market values for comparable
properties;  and (iii)  considers  the cost to complete and the  estimated  fair
value of the completed  project.  The  fulfillment  of the  Partnership's  plans
related to each of its  properties is dependent  upon,  among other things,  the
presence of economic conditions which will enable the Partnership to either hold
the  properties  for eventual  sale or obtain  financing to further  develop the
properties.

Interest and property taxes related to property  constructed by the  Partnership
are  capitalized  during  periods of  construction.  Interest  of  $103,000  and
property taxes of $44,000  related to the  construction of Office Max and Mimi's
Cafe, two  build-to-suit  retail  buildings which were completed in October 1998
and December 1998, respectively, were capitalized during the year ended December
31, 1998.

Rental  Property Held for Sale - Rental  property held for sale is stated at the
lower of cost or estimated  fair value less costs to sell.  Estimated fair value
is based upon prevailing market values for comparable  properties and/or the use
of  capitalization  rates multiplied by annualized  rental income based upon the
age, construction and use of the building.  The fulfillment of the Partnership's
plans to dispose of property is dependent upon, among other things, the presence
of economic  conditions  which will enable the  Partnership to hold the property
for eventual sale. The  Partnership  discontinues  depreciating  rental property
once it is classified as held for sale.

Land  Held for  Sale - Land  held for  sale is  stated  at the  lower of cost or
estimated  fair  value less  costs to sell.  Estimated  fair value is based upon
independent  appraisals or prevailing  market rates for  comparable  properties.
Appraisals are estimates of fair value based upon assumptions about the property
and the market in which it is located.

Cash and Cash  Equivalents - The Partnership  considers  short-term  investments
(including  certificates  of deposit and money market  funds) with a maturity of
less than ninety days at the time of investment to be cash equivalents.

Fair  Value  of  Financial  Instruments  -  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting
Standards  No.  107  requires  disclosure  about  fair  value for all  financial
instruments.  Based on the borrowing rates  currently  available to the Company,
the carrying amount of debt  approximates  fair value. Cash and cash equivalents
consist of demand deposits,  certificates of deposit and short-term  investments
with financial  institutions.  The carrying amount of cash and cash  equivalents
approximates fair value.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                           December 31, 1998 and 1997


Deferred  Financing Costs and Other Fees - Deferred loan fees are amortized on a
straight-line  basis  over  the life of the  related  loan  and  deferred  lease
commissions  are  amortized  over the initial  fixed term of the  related  lease
agreement.

Rental  Income - Rental  income is  recognized  as  earned  over the term of the
related lease.

Net  Income/Loss Per Limited  Partnership  Unit - Net income or loss per limited
partnership  unit is  calculated  using the weighted  average  number of limited
partnership  units  outstanding  during  the period  and the  Limited  Partners'
allocable share of the net income or loss.

Income  Taxes - No provision  for income  taxes is included in the  accompanying
financial  statements,  as the Partnership's results of operations are allocated
to the partners for inclusion in their respective  income tax returns.  Net loss
and partners' equity (deficit) for financial reporting purposes will differ from
the Partnership  income tax return because of different  accounting methods used
for certain items, including depreciation expense,  provisions for impairment of
investments in real estate,  capitalization  of development  period interest and
income and loss recognition.

Consolidation  - In April,  1996, the  Partnership  formed Rancon Realty Fund IV
Tri-City Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership ("RRF IV Tri-City")
as required by the lender of a $6,400,000  loan obtained by the  Partnership  in
1996. The loan is secured by three of the  Partnership's  properties  which were
contributed to RRF IV Tri-City by the Partnership. The limited partner of RRF IV
Tri-City is the  Partnership  and the general  partner is Rancon Realty Fund IV,
Inc., a  corporation  wholly  owned by the  Partnership.  Since the  Partnership
indirectly  owns 100% of RRF IV Tri-City,  the  financial  statements  of RRF IV
Tri-City have been consolidated with those of the Partnership. All inter-company
transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications  - Certain  prior  year  balances  have been  reclassified  to
conform with the current year presentation.

                           December 31, 1998 and 1997


The increase in Land and Buildings is due to the completion of the  construction
of Office Max and Mimi's Cafe in 1998.

Land held for  development  consists of the  following  at December 31, 1998 and
1997 (in thousands):

                                                       1998                1997

                                                    ==========        ==========

The 24.8 acres of land in Lake Elsinore,  CA was  reclassified  to land held for
sale during the first quarter of 1998.

The decrease in land held for  development in San  Bernardino,  CA is due to the
reclassification  of Office Max and Mimi's  Cafe to rental  property  during the
year ended December 31, 1998.

The above land held for development is unencumbered.

Rental property held for sale at December 31, 1997:

As of December  31, 1997 the  Partnership  was  marketing  for sale its 240-unit
apartment complex, the Shadowridge Woodbend Apartment complex, located in Vista,
California.  On June 4, 1998,  the  Partnership  sold the  Shadowridge  Woodbend
Apartment  complex to an unaffiliated  entity for  $16,075,000.  The Partnership
recognized a gain on the sale of the rental  property of $5,468,000 and realized
net proceeds of $9,806,000 after paying off the related secured debt and closing
costs.

Land held for sale  consists of the  following at December 31, 1998 and 1997 (in
thousands):

                                                 1998                  1997

                                             ===========           ===========

The  decrease  in the  carrying  value of the  17.14  acres  of land in  Perris,
California is due to the provision for impairment recorded during the year ended
December 31, 1998 as discussed  below. On January 15, 1999, the Partnership sold
the Perris land for $334,800, see Note 10.

                           December 31, 1998 and 1997


On January 27, 1998, the  Partnership  sold 2.07 acres of the land held for sale
in Temecula,  California  and  realized a loss on the sale of $11,000,  which is
reflected in the accompanying 1998 statement of operations.

The  Partnership  does not intend to develop the remaining  sites held for sale.
The proceeds  generated  from future  sales would be added to the  Partnership's
cash reserves, pending use in development of other properties, or distributed to
the partners.

The above land held for sale is unencumbered.

Provisions for impairment of real estate investments:

During the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Partnership  recorded the
following  provisions to reduce the carrying value of investments in real estate
(in thousands):

                                                  1998               1997

                                             =============       ===========

The  Partnership's   business  strategy  has  been  to  focus  on  the  eventual
disposition of its assets at the optimal time and sales price. In 1998 and 1997,
management  determined that the carrying values of certain of the  Partnership's
investments  in real estate were in excess of the  estimated  fair value of such
property and accordingly, recorded provisions for impairment as shown above.

Approximately  15 acres  of the  Tri-City  Corporate  Centre  land  owned by the
Partnership was part of a landfill  operated by the City of San Bernardino ("the
City")  from  approximately  1950 to 1960.  There  are no  records  of which the
Partnership is aware disclosing that hazardous wastes exist at the landfill. The
Partnership's  landfill  monitoring  program  currently  meets  or  exceeds  all
regulatory requirements and no material capital expenditures have been incurred.
The Partnership is working with the Santa Ana Region of the California  Regional
Water   Quality   Control   Board  and  the  City  to  determine  the  need  and
responsibility  for any  further  testing.  There is no current  requirement  to
ultimately  clean  up  the  site;   however,  no  assurance  can  be  made  that
circumstances will not arise which could impact the Partnership's responsibility
related to the property.

Note 4.           RESTRICTED CASH

On March 12, 1997,  pursuant to the Inland  Regional  Center  ("IRC")  lease,  a
$269,000  certificate of deposit ("CD") was opened. The $269,000 CD represents a
security  deposit,  that the Partnership  will retain in the event of default by
IRC.  Provisions  in the  lease  allow for the  security  deposit  plus  accrued
interest to be converted to prepaid rent after the 60th month (June 2001) of the
lease if the tenant is not in default of the provisions of the lease.

In  addition,  a $100,000 CD at  December  31,  1998 is held as  collateral  for
subdivision  improvement  bonds  related  to the land  held for  development  in
Temecula,  California.  The Partnership is in the process of obtaining a release
of this CD.

The  Partnership  has an option to extend for one year from the  maturity  date,
subject to an  extension  fee of 0.05% of the loan  ($25,000),  the note payable
secured  by  first  deeds  of  trust  on  Circuit  City  and TGI  Friday's.  The
Partnership will exercise its one-year extension right on the secured loan.

Note 6.           PROPOSED DISSOLUTION COSTS

In 1997,  the  Partnership  entered  into an  agreement  to sell all of its real
estate assets and then to liquidate the  Partnership,  as described in a Consent
Solicitation  Statement  sent to the  Unitholders on October 17, 1997 (and filed
with the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  on the same date under cover of
Schedule 14A) upon the completion of the sale. In November 1997, the Unitholders
consented to the sale of the Partnership's real estate assets and the subsequent
liquidation of the Partnership with sixty percent of the total outstanding Units
cast in favor of such proposal.  However;  in December 1997, the General Partner
determined  that it would be in the best interest of the  Partnership to rescind
the  agreement  for the sale of the real  estate  assets.  The  General  Partner
experienced  greater than anticipated  opposition by the Limited Partners to the
timing of the sale. In addition,  the General Partner  believed that holding the
Partnership's  real estate assets for an additional period of time would provide
the Partnership  with the opportunity to recognize an appreciation in its value.
Costs  totaling  $445,000  related  to the sale and  proposed  dissolution  were
expensed in 1997.

The General  Partner  currently plans to seek the Limited  Partners'  consent to
sell  all  of  the   Partnership's   remaining   properties  and  liquidate  the
Partnership,  and the General Partner has filed preliminary consent solicitation
materials  with  the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission.  The  Partnership's
remaining properties consist of ten rental properties and approximately 23 acres
of unimproved land it owns in the Tri-City  Corporate  Center in San Bernardino,
California, 24.8 acres

in Lake  Elsinore,  California  and 1.80 acres in  Temecula,  California.  Costs
totaling  $102,000  related  to the  proposal  to sell all of the  Partnership's
remaining  properties and liquidate the  Partnership  have been incurred and are
expensed in the accompanying statement of operations for the year ended December
31, 1998.

Note 7.            LEASES

The Partnership's  rental properties are leased under  non-cancelable  operating
leases  that  expire at various  dates  through  January,  2018.  In addition to
monthly base rents,  several of the leases  provide for  additional  rents based
upon a percentage of sales levels attained by the tenants. Contingent rentals of
$9,800 were  realized  during the year ended  December  31,  1998;  however,  no
contingent  rentals were  realized  during the years ended  December 31, 1997 or
1996. Future minimum rents under non-cancelable  operating leases as of December
31, 1998 are as follows (in thousands):

Note 8.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

The  Partnership  is  contingently  liable for a  subordinated  note  payable in
connection  with  the  land  in  Temecula,   California,  that  the  Partnership
reacquired in June 1992 through a deed in lieu of foreclosure in satisfaction of
a $2,276,000 note receivable. The subordinated note payable and accrued interest
total $566,000 as of December 31, 1998.  This amount is payable upon the sale of
the property  only after the  Partnership  receives the full amount of the prior
note receivable with accrued and unpaid interest, costs of development, costs of
sale,  and other amounts paid to obtain good title to the  property,  subject to
certain release  provisions.  Since the circumstances under which this liability
would be payable are  limited,  the note payable and accrued  interest  have not
been recorded in the accompanying financial statements; however, the amount will
be recognized prior to recording any gain on the sale of the related land.

The Partnership also remains  contingently  liable for subordinated  real estate
commissions payable to the General Partner in the amount of $643,000 at December
31, 1998 for sales that  transpired in previous  years.  The  subordinated  real
estate  commissions  are payable only after the Limited  Partners  have received
distributions  equal  to  their  original  invested  capital  plus a  cumulative
non-compounded return of 6% per annum on their adjusted invested capital.  Since
the  circumstances  under which these  commissions would be payable are limited,
the liability has not been recognized in the accompanying  financial statements;
however, the amount will be recorded when and if it becomes payable.

Note 9.  TAXABLE INCOME (LOSS)

The  Partnership's  tax  returns,  the  qualification  of the  Partnership  as a
partnership  for federal  income tax purposes,  and the amount of income or loss
are subject to  examination  by federal and state  taxing  authorities.  If such
examinations result in changes to the Partnership's  taxable income or loss, the
tax liability of the partners could change accordingly.

The  Partnership's  tax returns are filed on a calendar year basis. As such, the
following  reconciliation  has been  prepared  using tax amounts  estimated on a
calendar year basis.

The following is a  reconciliation  for the years ended December 31, 1998,  1997
and 1996 of the net  income  (loss)  for  financial  reporting  purposes  to the
estimated  taxable  income  (loss)  determined  in  accordance  with  accounting
practices used in preparation of federal income tax returns (in thousands).

                                    Agreement

         This  Agreement  is  made  as  of  August  31,  1998,  by  and  between
Glenborough Corporation, a California corporation ("GC"), Rancon Realty Fund IV,
a California  limited  partnership ("Fund IV"), Daniel L. Stephenson ("DLS") and
Rancon Financial Corporation, a California corporation ("RFC").

                                    Recitals

         A.        DLS and RFC are general partners of Fund IV.

         B.  Reference is made to that certain  Management,  Administration  and
Consulting  Agreement  dated  December  20, 1994,  by and among  (among  others)
Glenborough  Inland Realty Corporation  ("GIRC," GC's  predecessor-in-interest),
Fund IV, DLS and RFC, as amended on March 30, 1995 (the "Agreement").

         C.    Under    the    Agreement,    GC   is    required,    as   GIRC's
successor-in-interest,  to perform services for Fund IV, and Fund IV is required
to pay to GC, among other  things,  (i) property  management  fees  ("Management
Fees") and (ii) Asset  Administration  Fees ("Asset  Fees").  The Agreement also
establishes similar contractual  arrangements between GIRC and a number of other
partnerships  in which DLS and/or  RFC or  affiliates  thereof  serve as general
partners (the "Other Rancon Partnerships"), and GC is also successor-in-interest
to GIRC with respect to such contractual arrangements.

         D. Under  Section 11.6 of the  Agreement,  GC is entitled to Liquidated
Damages from Fund IV in the amount of $2,110,306  ("Liquidated  Damages") if the
Agreement  is  terminated  by Fund IV prior to the date five (5) years after the
Commencement Date of January 3, 1995.

         E. GC is  willing to waive its right to  Liquidated  Damages if Fund IV
agrees to maintain the Management Fees and Asset Fees at a specified amount, and
Fund IV is willing to so maintain  the amount of the  Management  Fees and Asset
Fees.

                                    Agreement

         Now, therefore, in consideration of the mutual promises,  covenants and
agreements contained herein, it is hereby agreed as follows:

         1.       Liquidated Damages.  GC hereby waives any and all claims to 
Liquidated Damages from Fund IV.

         2. Asset Fees and Management Fees. For the period beginning on the date
of this  Agreement and ending  December 31, 1999,  Fund IV shall pay to GC Asset
Fees and Management  Fees in an amount equal to the greater of (i) the amount of
Asset Fees and Management  Fees in effect as of the date of this  Agreement,  as
set forth in Exhibit A hereto,


                                 Page 47 of 49
<PAGE>

reduced only for such Asset Fees (in accordance with Exhibit E to the Agreement)
