                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
                                   (Unaudited)




(a)  Does not include  on-site  property  management  fees earned by independent
     property  management  companies of $51,050 and $52,899 for the three months
     ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,  respectively,  and $101,544 and $113,135 for
     the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  An affiliate of
     the General Partner has contracted on-site property  management services on
     behalf of the  Partnership  and are paid directly by the Partnership to the
     third party companies.

4.   SUBSEQUENT EVENT

     On August 15, 1997, the  Partnership was scheduled to pay a distribution of
$167,778 to the limited partners and $1,695 to the General Partner.

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

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     At June 30, 1997, the Partnership had $792,243 in cash and cash equivalents
which was available for working capital  requirements,  cash distributions,  and
the Partnership's cash reserves.

     For the three and six months ended June 30, 1997, the Partnership generated
$186,000 and $364,000, respectively, of adjusted cash from operations after debt
service,  capital  improvements,  and  adjustments  to  the  Partnership's  cash
reserves.  Overall second quarter cash flow for the three remaining  properties,
the Stewart's  Glen  property was sold in April 1996,  was  consistent  with the
first quarter results.  Year-to-date operations are in line with the plan set at
the beginning of the year. The  Partnership has resumed the payment of quarterly
cash  distributions  from operations.  The Partnership  plans to distribute cash
quarterly to the extent cash is available  from  operations  after debt service,
capital, and changes to cash reserves for liabilities and capital  expenditures.
The Partnership's  first quarter 1997 cash distribution of $160,321 or $6.45 per
Unit was paid on May 15, 1997, and represented the first quarter's adjusted cash
from  operations.  The  Partnership's  second quarter 1997 cash  distribution of
$167,778 or $6.75 per Unit is payable on August 15,  1997,  and  represents  the
quarter's adjusted cash from operations.

     The  Stonebridge  mortgage loan is scheduled to mature on April 1, 1998 and
the  Partnership's  strategy  is to sell the  property  prior to debt  maturity,
possibly as early as December  1997.  The  Partnership  began the sale marketing
process in July.  The  Partnership  expects  that offers will be  presented  for
review by the end of the third  quarter.  New  Orleans  has a limited  supply of
quality  projects  and,  because  there  have  been  very few  sales of  quality
apartment  properties in the recent past, New Orleans has not recently attracted
strong investor interest.  Although the Partnership's brokers have reported many
inquires to date,  if the  marketing  process  does not result in an  acceptable
offer,  the  Partnership  will pursue a refinancing of the mortgage debt. If the
Partnership  is successful  in selling the  property,  the net proceeds from the
sale may be available to distribute to partners later this year.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Generally, decreases in the income statement accounts for the three and six
months ended June 30, 1997, as compared  with the same periods in 1996,  are the
result of the sale of Stewart's Glen  Apartments in April 1996.  Interest income
decreased due to a lower average cash balance.  The average cash balance for the
second  quarter of 1996  included the proceeds  from the sale of Stewart's  Glen
Apartments on April 30, 1996. The proceeds from the sale were utilized to payoff
the Partnership's unsecured debt on May 15, 1996. The Partnership's cash balance
was further reduced as the result of a cash distribution to partners in December
1996. Fees and reimbursements to affiliates increased as a result of partnership
management fees.  Management fees were incurred in connection with the first and
second quarter 1997 cash distributions.  The Partnership did not distribute cash
from  operations  for the  first or second  quarter  of 1996.  Interest  expense
decreased due to the retirement of the Stewart's Glen mortgage note upon sale of
the property in April 1996,  and the  retirement of the  $3,400,000  Mellon Bank
promissory note on May 15, 1996.
