	PART I
Item 1.	Business

Secured Investment Resources Fund, L.P. ("Partnership") is a Kansas limited
partnership formed pursuant to the Kansas Revised Uniform Limited Partnership
Act on March 30, 1984.  James R. Hoyt is the Individual General Partner and
Secured Investment Resources, Inc., a Kansas corporation, is the Corporate
General Partner.  The Partnership was formed with the intent to engage in the
business of acquiring, improving, developing, operating and holding for
investment, income producing properties with the objectives of (i) preserving
and protecting the Partnership's capital; (ii) providing capital gains through
potential appreciation; (iii) providing quarterly "tax sheltered" cash
distributions from operations; (iv) generating tax losses in excess of tax
shelter distributions, which may be used to offset taxable income from other
sources; and (v) increasing equity through the reduction of mortgage loans on
Partnership properties.  The term of the partnership is sixty (60) years from
the date of the Partnership Agreement of October 1, 1984, or the date of
which all the assets acquired by the Partnership are sold or converted to
cash.

On August 31, 1986, the Partnership closed its offering, having received
gross proceeds of $12,434,750 from the sale of 24,869.5 units of limited
partnership interests.  This amount includes the purchase of 190 units by
the Corporate General Partner.

The Partnership acquired two garden-style apartment communities in 1985 and
three commercial strip shopping centers in 1986.  The General Partners feel
that all of these properties met the Partnership's investment criteria and
objectives.

Total rent charges for Sampler Shoppes, Inc. (SSI), the anchor tenant at
Foothills Village Shopping Center, represented approximately 6.0% and 9.0% of
Partnership rent revenues for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.
<PAGE>


Item 1.	Business--Cont'd.

As of December 31, 1997, the Partnership has made cash distributions to
Limited Partners of $5,343,132 for the period June 1, 1985 through December
31, 1997.  No distributions have been made since January 1990.  Future
distributions will only be made from excess cash flow not needed for working
capital reserves.

As of December 31, 1997, the Partnership had no employees.  Employees of
SPECS, Inc. provide services to the Partnership (as described in Note D).
James R. Hoyt, a General Partner, is the principal and owner of 33% of SPECS,
Inc. as of December 31, 1997.


Competition

The real estate business is highly competitive and the Partnership competes
with numerous entities engaged in real estate activities, some of which have
greater financial resources than those of the Partnership.  The Partnership's
management believes that success against such competition is dependent upon
the geographic location of the property, the performance of property managers,
the amount of new construction in the area and the maintenance and appearance
of the property.  With respect to residential property, competition is also
based upon the design and mix of the units and the ability to provide a
community atmosphere for the tenants.  The Partnership's management believes
that general economic circumstances and trends and new properties in the
vicinity of each of the Partnership's properties will also be competitive
factors.

Inflation

The effects of inflation on the Partnership's operations or investments are
not quantifiable.  Revenues from property operations fluctuate proportionately
with increases and decreases in housing costs.  Fluctuations in the rate of
inflation also affect the sales values of properties and, correspondingly,
the ultimate gains to be realized by the Partnership from property sales.

Results of Operations

Revenue for the partnership (net of the Foothills, which was foreclosed in
1997 and had revenue of $377,000 and $493,486 for 1997 and 1996 respectively)
decreased in 1997 to $1,771,000 as compared to $1,805,000 in 1996.  This
represented a decrease of $34,000 or 1.9%.

Operating costs (net of the Foothills which had operating costs of $109,000
in 1997 and $130,000 in 1996) increased in 1997 by $3,000 to $870,000 from
$867,000, or an increase of 0.3%.  Depreciation and amortization for 1997
(net of the Foothills which was $131,000 for 1997 and $204,000 for 1996)
increased by $7,000 to $427,000 for 1997 compared to $420,000 for 1996.
Interest for 1997 (net of the Foothills which had interest of $239,000 and
$366,000 for 1997 and 1996 respectively) decreased for the partnership by
$72,000 to $764,000 for 1997 from $836,000 for 1996.  The net result to the
Partnership was a decrease in the net loss from continuing properties of
$290,000 in 1997 as compared to $317,000 in 1996.

Revenue for the partnership decreased in 1996 to $2,299,000 as compared to
$2,326,000 in 1995.  This represented a decrease of $27,000 or 1.2%.

The operating costs without depreciation and amortization stabilized in 1996
over 1995 with a slight decrease of $12,000 (1.2%) from $1,009,000 to
$997,000.  Interest expense was up from 1995 by $27,000 (2.3%).  Depreciation
and amortization for 1996 decreased slightly by $3,000 (.3%) over 1995
depreciation of $627,000.  The net result to the Partnership was an increase
in the loss of $39,000 (8.0%) over 1995 levels.

Revenue in 1995 was $2,326,000 as compared to $2,207,000 in 1994, an increase
of 5.4%.  This higher revenue was achieved through average higher occupancy
levels at both residential and commercial properties and through increased
rental rates on the residential properties.

The increased residential rental rates resulted in a high resident turnover
and higher operating costs.  The operating costs increased $99,000 (10.9%)
from $910,000 to $1,009,000.  These increases were primarily in the areas of
repairs, payroll, and utilities.  Interest expense was down from 1994 by
$33,000 (2.7%).  Depreciation for 1995 increased $37,000 (6.3%) over 1994
depreciation of $590,000.  The net result to the Partnership was
a reduction of the loss by $16,000 (3.1%) from 1994 levels.

        Results of Operations.--Cont'd.

Results of Operations--Cont'd.

The Partnership anticipates that the operating results will improve during
1998. The general partner anticipates that the Fund will achieve higher
occupancy levels, increased rental rates, decreased rent promotions and will
begin a closer monitoring of operating expenses.

Liquidity and Sources of Capital

During 1997, the Partnership's primary source of working capital was from
operations, which provided $292,000 of funds.  Property improvements utilized
$70,000 of these funds and $155,000 was used for debt reduction.  The net
effect was an increase in cash of $10,000 at year end. The continuing trend
of higher occupancy levels and higher rental rates should continue through
1998 and improve cash flow from operations.

The Partnership is currently in negotiations with the lender for the second
mortgage on the Market Shopping Center and the Hidden Valley Exchange
Shopping Center.  The Partnership is attempting to extend the due date from
June 1998 or find a replacement lender. The lender for the Cascade Apartments
has given verbal commitment to extend the mortgage on a month-to-month basis.

During 1996, the Partnership's primary source of working capital was from
borrowing/refinancing of long term debt of $118,000 net of repayments.
Operations provided $68,000 of funds.  Property improvements utilized
$200,000 of these funds, and $58,000 was provided by restricted deposits for
capital improvements.  The net effect was an increase in cash of $46,000 at
year end.  The trend of higher occupancy levels and higher rental rents that
began several years ago should continue through 1997 and improve cash flow
from operations.

During 1995, the Partnership's primary source of working capital was from
borrowing/refinancing of long term debt of $196,000 net of repayments.
Operations provided $39,000 of funds.  Property improvements utilized
$183,000 of these funds, as did $73,000 in restricted deposits for capital
improvements.  The net effect was a decrease in cash of $21,000 at year end.

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

Liquidity and Sources of Capital--Cont'd.

During 1995, Sampler Shoppes, Inc. (The primary tenant at Foothills) paid the
entire amount of delinquent rent thereby reducing the Rent and Other
receivable balance at December 31, 1994 by $231,000.  With these funds the
partnership paid delinquent real estate taxes of $138,000 at Foothills
Shopping Center, reduced accrued interest on real estate loans and funded
additional closing costs on the new Colony Apartments' loan.
		
The General Partners' believe that sufficient working capital will be
available  to  fund known,  on-going operating and capital expenditure
requirements for the Partnership during 1998. The Partnership expects
continued increased rental income from the residential properties due to
ongoing scheduled rental increases.  It is also anticipated that occupancy
will remain stable on the commercial properties.  Operating expenses in 1998
will be up slightly from 1997 due primarily to increased operating costs
incurred in conjunction with scheduled rent increases.  Interest expense on
variable rate notes is expected to increase slightly from 1997 levels.

On May 28, 1996, the Partnership signed a note, collateralized by a second
mortgage on The Market and Hidden Valley Exchange, in the amount of $410,000
at 7% interest. The proceeds of this note were used to pay delinquent real
estate taxes for The Market and Hidden Valley Exchange as well as accrued
interest and related loan costs.

The Partnership is actively seeking a mortgage lender for the Cascade
Apartments mortgage, which matured in March, 1996.  The mortgage was extended
by the lender from March, 1996 at the same rate of interest.  As of the date
of this report, the Partnership continues to make monthly principal and
interest payments of $18,900 and will continue on a month-to-month basis
with the lender until a refinancing can be completed which is anticipated to
be in 1998.

On August 27, 1997 foreclosure proceedings were instituted on behalf of the
mortgage holders of the property known as Foothills Village Shopping Center.
The property was subject to a first mortgage in the amount of $2,577,084,
plus accrued interest of $19,063 and a second mortgage of $968,745, plus
accrued interest of $86,077.  The fund's basis in the property at the time of
the foreclosure, net of depreciation and other items, was approximately
$3,565,000.  The Partnership recorded a one-time gain on the foreclosure in
the amount of $89,719.

        Results of Operations.--Cont'd.

Liquidity and Sources of Capital--Cont'd.

The General Partners' intend to evaluate the property portfolio to determine
if it is prudent to offer one or more properties for sale.  Any unleveraged
portion of the net sales proceeds will generate additional working capital.

The General Partners have determined it prudent to discontinue cash
distributions, until such time that adequate working capital reserves are
available.  No distributions have been made since 1990.
 
Year 2000

The Partnership is currently dependent upon the General Partners and SPECS,
Inc. ("SPECS") for management and administrative services.  It is anticipated
that the General Partners and SPECS will have to modify or replace portions
of their software so that the computer systems will function properly with
respect to dates in the year 2000 and thereafter (the "Year 2000 Issue").
The project is estimated to be completed no later than January, 1999. It is
anticipated that SPECS will install a Year 2000 compliant software system at
the property by that date.  The cost of the conversion is not anticipated to
be material.  The general partners believe that with modifications to
existing software and conversion to new software, the Year 2000 Issue will
not pose significant operational problems for its computer systems.  However,
if such conversions are not made, or are not completed timely, the Year 2000
Issue could have a material impact on the operations of the Partnership.

Inflation

The effects of inflation on the Partnership's operations or investments are
not quantifiable.  Revenues from property operations fluctuate proportionately
with increases and decreases in housing costs.  Fluctuations in the rate of
inflation also affect the sales values of properties and, correspondingly,
the ultimate gains to be realized by the Partnership from property sales.

New Accounting Standards

SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," was issued in June 1997.
Comprehensive income is defined as net income plus certain items that are
recorded directly to shareholders' equity, such as unrealized gains and
losses on available-for-sale securities.  Components of comprehensive income
will be included in a financial statement that has the same prominence as
other financial statements starting in the first quarter of fiscal 1999.
SFAS No. 130's disclosure requirements will have no impact on the
Partnership's financial condition or results of operations.

SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information," is effective for financial statements for periods beginning
after December 15, 1997, but interim reporting is not required in 1998.
An operating segment is defined under SFAS No. 131 as a component of an
enterprise that engages in business activities that generate revenue and
expense for which operating results are reviewed by the chief operation
decision maker in the determination of resource allocation and performance.
The Partnership anticipates no impact of SFAS No. 131 on future financial
statement disclosures.

In April 1998, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee issued Statement
of Position 98-5 Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities.  SOP 98-5
provides guidance on the financial reporting of start up costs and
organization costs.  It requires costs of start-up activities and
organization costs to be expensed as incurred.  The SOP broadly defines
start-up activities and provides examples to help entities determine what
costs are and are not within the scope of this SOP.  The SOP applies to all
nongovernmental entities and, in general, is effective for financial
statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998.

The Partnership is not in its start-up phase and thus does not expect this
SOP to have a significant effect on its financial statement when it becomes
effective.
<PAGE>
Item 7.	Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial 
        Condition and Results of Operations.--Cont'd.

New Accounting Standards--Cont'd.

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board Issued SFAS 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.  SFAS 133
requires companies to recognize all derivatives contracts as either
assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and to measure them at fair
value.  If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically
designated as a hedge, the objective of which is to match the timing of
gain or loss recognition on the hedging derivative with the recognition
of (i) the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability
that are attributable to the hedged risk or (ii) the earnings effect of
the hedged forecasted transaction.  For a derivative not designated as a
hedging instrument, the gain or loss is recognized in income in the period
of change.  SFAS 133 is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years 
beginning after June 15, 1999.

Historically, the Partnership has not entered into derivatives contracts
either to hedge existing risks or for speculative purposes.  Accordingly,
the Partnership does not expect adoption of the new standard on January 1,
2000 to affect its financial statements.

These financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of the
Partnership's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements and schedules based upon 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 and
schedules are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining,
on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements and schedules.  An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and
schedules.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

As discussed in Note C, the Partnership has mortgage loans that mature
during the next fiscal year or that have become due.  The Partnership is
in current negotiations with the mortgage holders to extend or refinance
these obligations.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Secured Investment
Resources Fund, L.P. at December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1997 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

Also in our opinion, the schedules present fairly, in all material respects,
the information set forth therein.

SECURED INVESTMENT RESOURCES FUND, L.P. 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE A--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization and Business--Secured Investment Resources Fund, L.P.
(the Partnership) is a Kansas limited partnership formed pursuant to the
Kansas Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act on March 30, 1984.  The
General Partners' and Limited Partners' interest in Partnership earnings
or loss initially amounts to 1% and 99%, respectively.  The allocation of
the 1% interest between the General Partners is discretionary.  At such
point in time cash distributions to the Limited Partners amount to their
original invested capital plus interest at a rate of the greater of 8% or
the increase in the consumer price index per annum, cumulative non-compounded
on their adjusted invested capital, earnings or loss will be allocated 15%
to the General Partners and 85% to the Limited Partners.

Consolidated Limited Partnerships
To satisfy current real estate lending requirements that real estate assets
be in single asset partnerships, the Partnership has formed two single asset
partnerships.  Cascade Joint Venture L.P., a Kansas limited partnership was
formed on December 28, 1993 and Colony Joint Venture, L.P., a Kansas limited
partnership was formed on September 14, 1994.  These partnerships retained
the same partnership structure as Secured Investment Resources Fund, L.P.,
with Secured Investment Resources Fund, L.P. being the sole Limited Partner.
The General Partners of Cascade Joint Venture L.P. and Colony Joint Venture,
L.P. are identical to the General Partners of Secured Investment Resources
Fund, L.P.  The result of operations of these single asset partnerships have
been consolidated with the Partnership.

Depreciation--Investment property is depreciated on a straight-line basis
over the estimated useful life of the property (30 years for buildings and
5 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment).  Improvements are capitalized
and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.  Maintenance and repair
expenses are charged to operations as incurred.

Income Taxes--Any tax liabilities or benefits arising from  Partnership
operations are recognized individually by the respective partners and,
consequently, no provision will be made by the Partnership for income taxes
or income tax benefits.
<PAGE>
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--CONT'D.

NOTE A--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES--CONT'D

Partnership Loss Per Limited Partnership Unit--Partnership loss per limited
partnership unit is computed by dividing loss allocated to the Limited
Partners by the weighted average number of limited partnership units
outstanding.  Per unit information has been computed based on 24,869.5
weighted average limited partnership units outstanding.

Debt Issuance Costs--Loan costs are capitalized by the Partnership and are
amortized over the term of the related loan.

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

New Accounting Standards-SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," was
issued in June 1997.  Comprehensive income is defined as net income plus
certain items that are recorded directly to shareholders' equity, such as
unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities.  Components of
comprehensive income will be included in a financial statement that base the
same prominence as other financial statements starting in the first quarter
of fiscal 1999.  SFAS No. 130's disclosure requirements will have no impact
on the Partnership's financial condition or results of operations.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--CONT'D

NOTE A--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES--CONT'D

New Accounting Standards (cont'd)-SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments
of an Enterprise and Related Information," is effective for financial
statements for periods beginning after December 31, 1997, but interim
reporting is not required in 1998.  An operation segment is defined under
SFAS No. 131 as a component of an enterprise that engages in business
activities that generate revenue and expense for which operating results are
reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in the determination of
resource allocation and performance.  The Partnership anticipates no impact
of SFAS No. 131 on future financial statement disclosures.

In April 1998, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee issued Statement
of Position 98-5 Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities.  SOP 98-5
provides guidance on the financial reporting of start up costs and
organization costs.  It requires costs of start-up activities and
organization costs to be expensed as incurred.  The SOP broadly defines
start-up activities and provides examples to help entities determine what
costs are and are not within the scope of this SOP.  The SOP applies to all
nongovernmental entities and, in general, is effective for financial
statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998.

The Partnership is not in its start-up phase and thus does not expect this
SOP to have a significant effect on its financial statement when it becomes
effective.

NOTE A--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES--CONT'D

New Accounting Standards (cont'd)-In June 1998, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board Issued SFAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities.  SFAS 133 requires companies to recognize all derivatives
contracts as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and to measure
them at fair value.  If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be
specifically designated as a hedge, the objective of which is to match the
timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging derivative with the
recognition of (i) the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or
liability that are attributable to the hedged risk or (ii) the earnings
effect of the hedged forecasted transaction.  For a derivative not designated
as a hedging instrument, the gain or loss is recognized in income in the
period of change.  SFAS 133 is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 1999.

Historically, the Partnership has not entered into derivatives contracts

Hidden Valley Exchange Shopping Center (Hidden Valley) and The Market
Shopping Center (The Market) In February 1993, a $750,000 note,
collateralized by Hidden Valley and assignment of its rents and leases,
was increased to $820,000 and converted to a mortgage payable with
interest charged at 8.5%.  This loan requires monthly principal and
interest payments of $6,266 with the final payment due September 2000.

Also in February 1993, a $1,650,000 note, collateralized by Hidden Valley
and The Market, was increased to $1,800,000 and converted to a mortgage
payable. In August of 1995 an advance on the $1,800,000 note brought the
balance to $1,825,696.  This loan is payable at 7.0% interest with monthly
principal and interest of $11,426  through the maturity date of June 2001.

On May 28, 1996, the Partnership signed a note, collateralized by a second
mortgage on The Market and Hidden Valley Exchange, in the amount of $410,000
at 7% interest.  The Partnership will make monthly interest payments on this
mortgage until June 25, 1998 when the entire amount becomes due and payable.
The proceeds of this note were used to pay delinquent real estate taxes for
The Market and Hidden Valley Exchange as well as accrued interest and related
loan costs.  The Partnership is attempting to extend the due date from June
1998 or find a replacement lender.

The Partnership is in violation of covenants on both of the above notes which
require certain financial reports to be filed within 120 days after year end.

in the property.  The property was subject to a first mortgage in the amount
of $2,582,414, plus accrued interest of $21,841 and a second mortgage in the
amount of $968,245, plus accrued interest of $86,077.

fixed for the term of the loan at 10.09%, with monthly principal and interest
payments of $34,113.

Cascade Apartments (Cascade)

payments are made in an amount necessary to amortize the $2,100,000 loan
over 25 years with the unpaid principal due on the maturity date of March 1,
1995.  The loan is in default; however, the lender has given a verbal
commitment to extend the mortgage on a month-to-month basis.  The Partnership
will make monthly principal, interest and escrow payments of $21,733 until
permanent financing is found.

NOTE E--CASH DISTRIBUTIONS

No distributions have been made since January 1990.  Future distributions
will be made only from excess cash flow not needed for working capital
reserves.

NOTE F--PARTNERSHIP LIQUIDITY

The Partnership operates within the real estate industry and is subject to
its economic forces, which contributes additional liquidity risk to the
Partnership's investment portfolio.  These risks include, but are not limited
to, changes in general or local economic conditions, changes in interest
rates and the availability of permanent mortgage financing which may render
the acquisition, sale or refinancing of a property difficult or unattractive,
changes in real estate and zoning laws, increases in real estate taxes,
federal or local economic or rent controls, floods, earthquakes and other
acts of God and other factors beyond the control of the Partnership's
management.  The illiquidity of real estate investments generally may impair
the ability of the Partnership to respond promptly to changing economic
conditions.

The General Partners believe that sufficient working capital will be
available to fund known, ongoing operating and capital expenditure
requirements of the Partnership during 1998.  The primary sources of working
capital during 1998 are expected to be cash flow from operations.  The
Partnership is actively seeking a mortgage lender for the Cascade Apartments
mortgage.  This mortgage presently has an interest rate of 9.875%.  The
projected new loan proceeds would include refinancing costs as well as
reserves for capital improvements as needed on the mortgaged properties.

Certain positive factors are expected to 1998 operations.  Occupancy levels
on the commercial properties have improved and stabilized requiring less
tenant improvement costs and leasing commission expense.  The two residential
properties are expected to maintain, if not increase, their levels of
occupancy and income during 1998.  Management believes revenue will increase
from 1997 levels because of this leasing activity.  It is anticipated that
property operating expenses in 1998 will increase only slightly from those
amounts which were incurred during 1997.

Interest expense on the variable rate notes payable is expected to increase
slightly over those levels realized during 1997.  The availability of the
liquidity sources and accomplishment of these objectives are partially
predicated on the real estate economic conditions discussed above, which are
beyond the control of the Partnership and will influence the achieved results.

NOTE J--GAIN ON FORECLOSURE

On August 27, 1997 foreclosure proceedings were instituted on behalf of the
mortgage holder of the property known as Foothills Village Shopping Center.
The property was subject to a first mortgage in the amount of $2,582,414 plus
accrued interest of $21,841 and a second mortgage of $968,245 plus accrued
interest of $86,077.  The Fund's basis in the property at the time of
foreclosure, net of depreciation and other items, was approximately
$3,565,000.  As a result of the foreclosure, the difference between the
Fund's basis and the total of the outstanding debt, net of depreciation and
restricted deposits, or $89,719, was treated as a gain on disposition of the
asset.

NOTE L--SUBSEQUENT EVENT

In January 1999, the Partnership consummated a settlement agreement in which
it sold its investment in the Colony Apartments and transferred its
investment in the Market Shopping Center to its lender.  The sale price of
the Colony Apartments was $5,530,000 with an approximate gain on the sale of
$850,000.  In consideration with the lender releasing its collateral interest
in the Colony Apartments, the Partnership transferred its interest in the
Market Shopping Center to the lender.  As a result of this transfer, the
Partnership expects to realize an additional gain of approximately $500,000.
During 1997, the Colony Apartments had net revenues of approximately
$945,000 and total expenses of $972,000 while the Market Shopping Center had
net revenues of approximately $101,000 and total expenses of $235,000.
