                  LIBERTY HOUSING PARTNERS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
                      (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership)

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Liquidity and Capital Resources

  The aggregate  outstanding principal amount of and accrued and unpaid interest
on the Purchase Money Note obligations of the  Partnership,  as of September 30,
1996, was approximately $14,862,203.  The aggregate outstanding principal amount
of the  Purchase  Money  Notes  reported  on  the  Partnership's  Balance  Sheet
($9,075,646  at  September  30,  1996),  reflects  a  discount  using an imputed
interest rate of approximately  21%, which was applied to the face amount of the
notes on the respective investment purchase dates and which is used to calculate
an annual  interest  accrued in accordance  with generally  accepted  accounting
principles that will equate to the legal obligation  expected at maturity of the
notes.

  As of  September  30,  1996,  the unpaid  principal  amount of and accrued and
unpaid interest on the Linden Park Associates Limited Partnership Notes equalled
$2,757,011.

  At September 30, 1996, the  Partnership's had reserves of $175,942 in cash and
cash equivalents.

  In 1996, the Partnership received $4,623 of interest payments on the long-term
purchase money notes of Linden Park Associates  Limited  Partnership held by the
Partnership,  and accrued unpaid interest of $108,958. As of September 30, 1996,
the outstanding  balance of principal and accrued and unpaid interest receivable
on these notes amounted to $282,761.

Partnership Operations

       The Partnership is engaged solely in the business of owning  interests in
the Local Limited Partnerships rather than the direct ownership of real estate.

       The  Partnership's  net loss  increased to  $1,422,049  in the first nine
months of 1996 from  $1,190,961 in the first nine months of 1995  primarily as a
result of the increase in the Partnership's interest expense.

       The  Partnership's  interest income reflects  interest earned on reserves
and interest  net of discount  amortization  on the long term notes  receivable.
Total interest  income  decreased  $4,702 to $20,648 in the first nine months of
1996 from the first nine months of 1995.  This decrease is  attributable to both
lower interest rates and lower cash balances.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Partnership Operations, continued


       The  Partnership's  interest expense increased to $1,404,540 in the first
nine  months of 1996 from  $1,142,487  in the first  nine  months of 1995.  Such
increase is  attributable  to the accrual of interest  under the Purchase  Money
Notes.

       The  Partnership's  equity  in  income  (loss)  from  the  Local  Limited
Partnerships  was  $49,560 in the first nine  months of 1996 and  $23,524 in the
first nine months of 1995. The Partnership's  share of total net losses reported
from the Local Limited  Partnerships  increased by $4,207.  However,  losses not
recorded by the Partnership  from five Local Limited  Partnerships,  because its
related investment amount in such partnerships had already been reduced to zero,
increased  by  $30,243,  resulting  in a  net  increase  of  $26,036  in  income
recognized.
