the Waterford  Apartments to Case Ventures,  Inc., an Oklahoma Corporation for a
gross sales price of  $14,675,000.  The purchaser  assumed the bond financing of
$11,355,000  as  part  of the  sale.  The  property  had a  depreciated  cost of
approximately  $9,550,000 as of the date of sale. After deducting closing costs,
the Partnership expects to record a gain of approximately $4,850,000.

     On May 17, 1999, the  Partnership  paid a distribution of $3,808,933 to the
limited partners and $1,973 to the General Partner.

          CONNECTICUT GENERAL REALTY INVESTORS III LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
                       (a Connecticut limited partnership)

                Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
                       Condition and Results of Operations

     Except for historical information provided in this Management's  Discussion
and Analysis,  statements made in this document are  forward-looking and contain
information about financial  results,  economic  conditions,  trends,  and known
uncertainties.  The  Partnership  cautions the reader that actual  results could
differ materially from those expected by the Partnership.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     At  March  31,  1999,  the  Partnership  had  $661,936  in  cash  and  cash
equivalents  which  was  available  for  working  capital   requirements,   cash
distributions,  and the Partnership's cash reserves. For the quarter ended March
31, 1999, the  Partnership  generated  $197,000 of adjusted cash from operations
after debt service,  capital improvements,  and adjustments to the Partnership's
cash reserves.  The  Partnership  will pay a cash  distribution of $3,808,933 or
$153.24 per Unit on May 17, 1999 representing the first quarter's  adjusted cash
from operations of $195,368 or $7.86 per Unit and the net proceeds from the sale
of Waterford Apartments of $145.38 per Unit. 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, until the sale of the Partnership's remaining property.

     On April 14, 1999, the Partnership  completed the sale of its investment in
the Waterford  Apartments to Case Ventures,  Inc., an Oklahoma Corporation for a
gross sales price of  $14,675,000.  The purchaser  assumed the bond financing of
$11,355,000 as part of the sale. After deducting  closing costs, the Partnership
netted approximately  $3,614,000.  On May 17, 1999, the Partnership is scheduled
to  distribute  the  net  proceeds  from  the  sale  to  limited  partners.  The
Partnership  expects to record a gain for both book and tax  purposes.  With the
sale of Waterford completed, the Partnership will commence the sales process for
Versailles Village. The property will likely be sold on a leveraged basis. Based
on the anticipated  sale of Versailles  Village by the end of the third quarter,
the Partnership plans to liquidate and terminate by the end of the year.

Results of Operations

     Rental income  increased 7% at Waterford  and 4% at Versailles  Village for
the three months ended March 31, 1999, as compared with the same period in 1998,
due to an increase in rates.  Versailles  Village  plans to continue to increase
rental rates in the second quarter.  Other income increased due to the write off
of a disputed payable relating to maintenance work at Stonebridge Manor in 1997.

     Fees and  reimbursements  to affiliates  increased  primarily due to higher
partnership  management fees as a result of more cash available for distribution
for the three months ended March 31, 1999 than in the same period in 1998.  More
cash was  available  to  distribute  in 1999 due to improved  operations,  fewer
reserves  required and less debt service  (Waterford  Taxable Series 1993B Bonds
fully amortized by December 1998).  There was no depreciation  and  amortization
expense for  Waterford  in 1999 as the property was held for sale as of November
1998.
