                         PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

         Consolidated  Balance Sheets - June 30, 1996  (unaudited)  and December
         31, 1995

         Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of
         Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

(1)      Liquidity

         At June 30, 1996,  Registrant had cash of  approximately  $1,117.  Such
funds are expected to be used to pay  liabilities of Registrant and to fund cash
deficits of the properties.  Cash generated from operations is used primarily to
fund  operating   expenses  and  debt  service.   If  cash  flow  proves  to  be
insufficient,  the Registrant will attempt to negotiate with the various lenders
in order to remain  current on all  obligations.  The Registrant is not aware of
any additional sources of liquidity.

         As of  June  30,  1996,  Registrant  had  restricted  cash  of  $56,299
consisting  primarily of funds held as security deposits,  replacement  reserves
and  escrows  for  taxes.  As a  consequence  of these  restrictions  as to use,
Registrant  does not deem these  funds to be a source of  liquidity.  Should the
first mortgage  holder of the eleven units at Smythe Stores be successful in its
attempts to foreclose,  it is not expected to have a  significant  impact on the
Registrant's liquidity, as these units have generated little or no positive cash
flow. See Part II, Item 1 for additional information.

         In  recent  years  the  Registrant  has  realized  significant  losses,
including the foreclosure of five properties,  due to the properties'  inability
to  generate  sufficient  cash flow to pay  their  operating  expenses  and debt
service.  At the present time,  with the exception of the eleven units at Smythe
Stores,   where  the  Registrant  will  either  be  able  to  negotiate  a  loan
modification  or the units will be foreclosed,  the Registrant has feasible loan
modifications in place. However, in all three cases, the mortgages are basically
"cash-flow"  mortgages,  requiring all available cash after payment of operating
expenses to be paid to the first mortgage holder.  Therefore it is unlikely that
any  cash  will  be  available  to  the   Registrant  to  pay  its  general  and
administrative  expenses.  See  Accountant's  Report with  respect to  financial
statements  included in the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1995.
                                      -2-
<PAGE>

         It is the  Registrant's  intention  to continue to hold the  properties
until they can no longer meet the debt service  requirements  and the properties
are foreclosed, or the market value of the properties increases to a point where
they  can be sold  at a price  which  is  sufficient  to  repay  the  underlying
indebtedness.

(2)    Capital Resources

         Due to the relatively  recent  rehabilitations  of the properties,  any
capital  expenditures needed are generally  replacement items and are funded out
of cash from operations or replacement  reserves,  if any. The Registrant is not
aware of any factors which would cause historical  capital  expenditures  levels
not to be indicative of capital requirements in the future and accordingly, does
not believe that it will have to commit material resources to capital investment
for the foreseeable future. If the need for capital expenditures does arise, the
first  mortgage  holder for Third  Quarter  and  Wistar  Alley and nine units at
Smythe  Stores has agreed to fund capital  expenditures  at terms similar to the
first mortgage.  The mortgagee funded $954 and $27,068 during the second quarter
of 1996 at Third Quarter and Wistar Alley, respectively.

(3)    Results of Operations

         During the second  quarter of 1996,  Registrant  incurred a net loss of
$829,107  ($70.70  per  limited  partnership  unit)  compared  to a net  loss of
$213,923 ($18.24 per limited  partnership unit) for the same period in 1995. For
the first six months of 1996, the  Registrant  incurred a net loss of $1,112,896
($94.90 per limited partnership unit) compared to a net loss of $605,634 ($51.64
per limited partnership unit) for the same period in 1995.

         Rental income decreased  $55,351 from $179,697 in the second quarter of
1995 to $124,346  in the same period in 1996.  The  decrease  resulted  from the
foreclosure of one of the Registrant's  properties  ("Centre Park") in July 1995
partially  offset by an  increase  in rental  income at Third  Quarter  due to a
increase in average  occupancy  (86% to 94%) and an increase at Wistar Alley due
to an increase in average occupancy (83% to 93%)

         Rental income decreased $137,867 from $368,663 for the first six months
of 1995 to $230,796 for the same period in 1996. The decrease  resulted from the
foreclosure of one of the Registrant's  properties  ("Centre Park") in July 1995
combined  with a decrease in rental  income at Wistar Alley due to a decrease in
average  occupancy (89% to 83%) partially offset by an increase at Third Quarter
due to an increase in average occupancy (87% to 90%)

         Expense for rental operations decreased by $28,213 from $119,628 in the
second  quarter of 1995 to $91,415 in the same period in 1996 and  decreased  by
$72,852 from  $316,243 for the first six months of 1995 to $243,391 for the same
period in 1996.  Expenses for rental  operations  decreased  for both the second
quarter  and the  first  six  months  to the  same  periods  in 1995  due to the
foreclosure  of Centre  Park in July 1995  partially  offset by an  increase  in
maintenance and commissions  expense.  Maintenance expense at both Third Quarter
and Wistar Alley increased pursuant to a change in the management contract which
increased the hourly rates charged for maintenance  personnel while  maintenance
expense  increased at Smythe  Stores due to  expenditures  for certain  deferred
maintenance  items.  Commissions  expense  increased  at both Third  Quarter and
Wistar Alley due to a higher turnover of units.

                                      -3-

         Depreciation and amortization  expense  decreased $34,301 from $113,448
in the  second  quarter  of 1995 to  $79,147  in the  same  period  in 1996  and
decreased  $66,703 from $225,155 for the first six months of 1995 to $158,452 in
the same period in 1996.  The  decreases  are the result of the  foreclosure  of
Centre Park in July 1995.

         Interest  expense  increased  by $622,302  from  $120,176 in the second
quarter of 1995 to $742,478 in the same period in 1996 and increased by $508,819
from $352,202 for the first six months of 1995 to $861,021 in the same period in
1996.  The increase for both the second  quarter and the first six months to the
same  periods in 1995 is the result of the  accrual of default  interest  in the
second  quarter of 1996 of interest that should have been accrued in prior years
at Smythe  Stores,  partially  offset by the  foreclosure of Centre Park in July
1995.

         Losses  incurred   during  the  second  quarter  at  the   Registrant's
properties  amounted to $787,000,  compared to a loss of approximately  $229,000
for the same period in 1995.  For the first six months of 1996 the  Registrant's
properties  recognized a loss of $1,028,000  compared to approximately  $547,000
for the same period in 1995.

         In the second quarter of 1996,  Registrant  incurred a loss of $714,000
at the Smythe Stores  Condominium  complex including $40,000 of depreciation and
amortization  expense,  compared  to a loss of $73,000 in the second  quarter of
1995,  including $40,000 of depreciation expense and for the first six months of
1996,  Registrant  incurred a loss of $825,000 including $81,000 of depreciation
and amortization expense,  compared to a loss of $184,000 for the same period in
1995,  including $83,000 of depreciation  expense.  The increase in the loss for
both the second  quarter and the first six months of 1995 to the same periods in
1996 is mainly the result of an increase in interest  expense  combined  with an
increase in maintenance  expense.  Interest expense increased due the accrual in
the second quarter of 1996 of default  interest that should have been accrued in
prior years due to the  modification of 9 of the 20 mortgage loans.  Maintenance
expense increased due to expenditures for certain deferred maintenance items. In
addition,  rental  income  decreased in the first six months of 1996 compared to
the same period in 1995 due a decrease in the average occupancy (89% to 62%).

         In the second quarter of 1996, Registrant incurred a loss of $39,000 at
Third Quarter Apartments, including $18,000 of depreciation expense, compared to
a loss of  $29,000  including  $18,000  of  depreciation  expense  in the second
quarter of 1995 and for the first six months of 1996, Registrant incurred a loss
of  $107,000,  including  $35,000  of  depreciation  and  amortization  expense,
compared to a loss of $88,000 for the same period in 1995,  including $35,000 of
depreciation  expense.  The increase in the loss from the first  quarter and the
first  six  months  of 1995 to the  same  periods  in 1996 is the  result  of an
increase in maintenance and commissions  expense partially offset by an increase
in rental  income.  Maintenance  expense  increased  pursuant to a change in the
management  contract  which  increased the hourly rates charged for  maintenance
personnel and commissions  expense  increased due to a higher turnover of units.
Rental  income  increased  due to an increase in the  average  occupancy  in the
second quarter (86% to 94%) and for the first six months (87% to 90%).

         In the second quarter of 1996, Registrant incurred a loss of $34,000 at
Wistar Alley,  including $21,000 of depreciation expense,  compared to a loss of
$26,000 including $21,000 of depreciation expense in the second quarter of 1995.
The  increase  in the loss from the second  quarter  and the first six months of
1995 to the same  periods in 1996 is due to an  increase in  management  fee and
commissions   expense   partially  offset  by  an  increase  in  rental  income.
Maintenance  expense increased  pursuant to a change in the management  contract
which  increased  the  hourly  rates  charged  for  maintenance   personnel  and
commissions expense increased due to a higher turnover of units. In addition, in
the second  quarter of 1996 as  compared to the second  quarter of 1995,  rental
income  increased  due to an  increase in average  occupancy  (83% to 93%) while
rental income decreased for the first six months of 1996 as compared to the same
period in 1995 due to a decrease in average  occupancy (89% to 83%) and the loss
of one commercial tenant.

         In the  second  quarter  of 1996,  Registrant  incurred a loss of $0 at
Centre  Park  Place,  compared  to a  loss  of  $101,000  including  $32,000  of
depreciation  expense in the second quarter of 1995 and for the first six months
of 1996, Registrant incurred a loss of $0 compared to a loss of $212,000 for the
same period in 1995, including $65,000 of depreciation  expense. The decrease in
the loss from the  second  quarter  and the first six months of 1995 to the same
periods  in 1996 is due to the fact  that the  property  was  foreclosed  by the
lender in July 1995.

                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

         Due to insufficient  cash flow at Smythe Stores,  the Registrant ceased
making debt service payments.  In 1990, the lender was placed in receivership by
the Resolution  Trust  Corporation  ("RTC").  The entities  which  purchased the
mortgages from the RTC each filed complaints for foreclosure due to non-payment;
foreclosure  proceedings  on nine units were filed in the Court of Common Pleas,
Philadelphia  County  in the  matters  of  Bruin  Holdings,  Inc.  ("Bruin")  v,
Diversified Historic Investors and foreclosure  proceedings on eleven units were
filed in the Court of Common  Pleas,  Philadelphia  County in the matters of EMC
Mortgage Corporation v. Diversified Historic Investors. In March 1996, the Bruin
cases were settled and the nine  mortgages  were sold.  The Registrant is in the
process of negotiating a modification with the new holder of the mortgage. It is
anticipated  that the new terms will call for monthly payments of interest in an
amount equal to net operating income,  with a minimum monthly payment. A hearing
occurred  in early  May where  EMC's  motion to have a  receiver  appointed  was
denied.  The next hearing date has not yet been set. The  Registrant is pursuing
settlement negotiations; however if no settlement is reached it is expected that
the eleven associated units will be foreclosed by the lender.

         No matter was submitted  during the quarter covered by this report to a
