DAMSON/BIRTCHER REALTY INCOME FUND-I
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
(1) Accounting Policies
-------------------
The financial statements of Damson/Birtcher Realty Income Fund-I (the
"Partnership") included herein have been prepared by the General
Partner, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. These financial statements
include all adjustments which are of a normal recurring nature and, in
the opinion of the General Partner, are necessary for a fair
presentation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted,
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. These financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Partnership's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 1995.
Earnings Per Unit
The Partnership Agreement does not designate investment interests in
units. All investment interests are calculated on a "percent of
Partnership" basis, in part to accommodate original reduced rates on
sales commissions for subscriptions in excess of certain specified
amounts.
A Limited Partner who was charged a reduced sales commission or no
sales commission was credited with proportionately larger Invested
Capital and therefore had a disproportionately greater interest in the
capital and revenues of the Partnership than a Limited Partner who
paid commissions at a higher rate. As a result, the Partnership has
no set unit value as all accounting, investor reporting and tax
information is based upon each investor's relative percentage of
Invested Capital. Accordingly, earnings or loss per unit is not
presented in the accompanying financial statements.
Carrying Value of Real Estate
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 "Accounting for
the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be
Disposed Of," ("FAS 121"). This Statement requires that if the
General Partner believes factors are present that may indicate
long-lived assets are impaired, the undiscounted cash flows, before
debt service, related to the assets should be estimated. If these
estimated cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset,
then impairment is deemed to exist. If impairment exists, the asset
should be written down to the estimated fair value.

(1) Accounting Policies (Cont'd.)
-------------------
Further, assets held for sale, including any unrecoverable accrued
rent receivable or capitalized leasing commissions, should be carried
at the lower of carrying value or fair value less estimated selling
costs. Any adjustment to carrying value is recorded as a valuation
allowance against property held for sale. Each reporting period, the
General Partner will review its estimates of fair value, which may be
decreased or increased up to the original carrying value. Finally,
assets held for sale are no longer depreciated. The General Partner
adopted FAS 121 at December 31, 1995 and the adoption did not have a
material impact on the Partnership's operations or financial position,
as prior to December 31, 1995, the Partnership had not had any
properties held for sale.
As noted above, as of December 31, 1995 the General Partner decided to
account for the Partnership's properties as assets held for sale,
instead of for investment. Assuming an average 12 month holding
period, the General Partner compared the carrying value of each
property to its appraised value as of January 1, 1996. If the
carrying value of a property and certain related assets was greater
than its appraised value, less selling costs, the General Partner
reduced the carrying value of the property by the difference. Using
this methodology, the General Partner determined that The Cornerstone,
Ladera I Shopping Center, Terracentre, Arlington Executive Plaza and
Washington Technical Center had carrying values greater than they had
appraised values, and therefore reduced their carrying values by
$1,600,000, $560,000, $590,000, $1,250,000 and $770,000 to $9,032,000,
$6,234,000, $2,397,000, $2,740,000 and $2,612,000, respectively.
For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Partnership spent
$1,572,000 on building and tenant improvements at Arlington Executive
Plaza ($41,000), the Cornerstone ($1,063,000), Terracentre ($38,000),
Washington Technical Center ($46,000), Ladera I ($14,000) and
Oakpointe ($370,000). Since these expenditures had already been
anticipated by the Partnership in 1995 and taken into account in the
third-party appraisals that form the basis of the General Partner's
estimate of the fair market value of the Partnership's portfolio as of
December 31, 1995, the General Partner did not change its estimate of
the fair market value of the portfolio as of June 30, 1996.
(2) Transactions with Affiliates
----------------------------
The Partnership has no employees and, accordingly, the General Partner
and its affiliates perform services on behalf of the Partnership in
connection with administering the affairs of the Partnership. The
General Partner and affiliates are reimbursed for their general and
administrative costs actually incurred and associated with services
performed on behalf of the Partnership. For the three months ended
June 30, 1996 and 1995, the Partnership incurred approximately $51,000
and $54,000, respectively, of such expenses. For the six months
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, such payments were $98,000 and $108,000
respectively.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT - UNAUDITED (Cont'd.)
(2) Transactions with Affiliates (Cont'd.)
----------------------------
An affiliate of the General Partner provides property management
services with respect to the Partnership's properties and receives a
fee for such services not to exceed 3% of the gross receipts from the
properties under management. Such fees amounted to approximately
$45,000 and $38,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively, and $89,000 and $76,000 for the six months ended June
30, 1996 and 1995. In addition, an affiliate of the General Partner
received $106,000 and $80,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996
and 1995, respectively, as reimbursement of costs of on-site property
management personnel and other reimbursable costs. For the six months
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, such payments were $195,000 and $163,000
respectively.
As previously reported, on June 24, 1993, the Partnership completed
its solicitation of written consent from its Limited Partners. A
majority in interest of the Partnership's Limited Partners approved
each of the proposals contained in the Information Statement dated May
5, 1993. Those proposals have been implemented by the Partnership as
contemplated by the Information Statement as amendments to the
Partnership Agreement, and are reflected in these financial statements
as such.
The amended Partnership Agreement provides for the Partnership's
payment to the General Partner of an annual asset management fee equal
to .75% of the aggregate appraised value of the Partnership's
properties as determined by independent appraisal undertaken in
January of each year. Such fees for the six months ended June 30,
1996 and 1995, amounted to $151,000 and $152,000, respectively.
In addition, the amended Partnership Agreement provides for payment to
the General Partner of a leasing fee for services rendered in
connection with leasing space in a Partnership property after the
expiration or termination of leases. Fees for leasing services for
the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, amounted to $8,000 and
$7,000, respectively.
(3) Commitments and Contingencies
-----------------------------
Litigation
The Partnership is not a party to any material pending legal
proceedings other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to its
business. It is the General Partner's belief that the outcome of
these proceedings will not be material to the business or financial
condition of the Partnership.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------
Since completion of its acquisition program in September 1985, the
Partnership has been engaged primarily in the operation of its
properties. The Partnership's objective has been to hold its
properties as long-term investments, although properties may be sold
at any time depending upon the General Partner's judgment of the
anticipated remaining economic benefits of continued ownership.
Working capital is and will be provided principally from the operation
of the Partnership's properties and the working capital reserve
established for the properties. The Partnership may incur mortgage
indebtedness relating to such properties by borrowing funds primarily
to fund capital improvements or to obtain financing proceeds for
distribution to the partners.
On July 30, 1993, the Partnership obtained a loan secured by a First
Deed of Trust on the Certified Distribution Center in Salt Lake City,
Utah. The loan, in the amount of $3,500,000, carries a fixed interest
rate of 9% per annum over a 13-year fully amortizing term. The
Partnership's first payment of $38,138.82 was paid on September 1,
1993, with monthly installments due thereafter. Proceeds from that
loan, along with $500,000 of Partnership cash reserves, were used to
retire the Partnership's then existing debt of $4,000,000.
In March 1996, the Partnership entered into a loan agreement pursuant
to which it may borrow up to $1,500,000, evidenced by a note secured
by a first deed of trust and financing statement on the Ladera I
Shopping Center in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Pursuant to the note and
loan agreement, until March 3, 1997 the Partnership is to pay interest
only at the rate of 1% over prime (currently, the loan rate is 9.25%)
on the amounts it borrows. Thereafter, the outstanding balance of all
advances made under the note is to be converted to a fully amortizing
loan payable in 24 equal monthly payments of principal plus accrued
interest, commencing April 3, 1997. The Partnership has agreed to
repay the loan from the first sale of the Partnership's property. The
net proceeds of the foregoing loan are to be used to fund a portion of
the renovation and tenant improvements at The Cornerstone and tenant
improvements at Oakpointe, with any remainder added to the
Partnership's working capital reserves. As of June 30, 1996, the
Partnership had borrowed $700,000 pursuant to the aforementioned loan
agreement to fund a portion of the renovation at the Cornerstone
Shopping Center, which was completed during the second quarter of
1996. There will be additional costs for tenant improvements as the
vacant space in the center is leased.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Cont'd.)
Liquidity and Capital Resources (Cont'd.)
-------------------------------
Certain of the Partnership's properties are not fully leased. The
Partnership is actively marketing the vacant space in these
properties, subject to the competitive environment in each of the
market areas. To the extent the Partnership is not successful in
maintaining or increasing occupancy levels at these properties, the
Partnership's future cash flow may be reduced.
The Partnership has made no distributions to date in 1996, but intends
to resume distributing cash in late August, 1996. Distributions from
inception through June 30, 1996 represent cash flow generated from
operations of the Partnership's properties and interest earned on the
temporary investment of working capital net of capital reserve
requirements. Future cash distributions will be made principally to
the extent of cash flow attributable to operations and sales of the
Partnership's properties and interest earned on the investment of
capital reserves, after loan repayments, payment for capital
improvements to the Partnership's properties and providing for capital
reserves.
In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, each year
the Partnership secures an independent appraisal of each of the
Partnership's properties as of January 1. Prior to the January 1,
1995 appraisals, the independent appraiser had estimated each
property's "Investment Value," utilizing a seven to ten-year cash flow
model to estimate value based upon an income approach.
The amendment to the Partnership Agreement consented to by the Limited
Partners in June 1993 mandated, among other things, that the General
Partner seek a vote of (and provide an analysis and recommendation to)
the Limited Partners no later than December 31, 1996 regarding the
prompt liquidation of the Partnership in the event that properties
with (then) current appraised values (constituting at least one-half
of the total (then) current appraised values) of all of the
Partnership's properties are not sold or under contract for sale by
the end of 1996.
Given that mandate, the General Partner requested that the appraiser
provide an assessment of value that reflects a shorter investment
holding term. Although the General Partner does not currently have a
specific liquidation plan for the Partnership's properties, it
requested that the appraiser assume that the entire portfolio would
be sold over four years, in connection with the January 1995
appraisals and over three years in connection with the January 1996
appraisals.
Using the shorter-term investment methodology that is consistent with
the mandate of the 1993 amendment to the Partnership Agreement, the
appraiser estimated the value of the Partnership's properties at
January 1, 1996 to be $40,390,000, or $4,155 per $10,000 original
investor subscription.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Cont'd.)
Liquidity and Capital Resources (Cont'd.)
-------------------------------
Over the past year, the General Partner has examined several
alternative methods to achieve the Partnership's goal of selling the
Partnership's properties and liquidating the Partnership at the
earliest practicable time consistent with achieving reasonable value
for the Limited Partners' investment. As explained in the
Partnership's May 5, 1993 Information Statement, "achieving
reasonable value" has meant for the Partnership to balance
receiving higher sales prices per property than their 1993 values
while at the same time not waiting forever to sell at a theoretical
"top of the market." Alternatives under consideration by the General
Partner may include a property-by-property liquidation or selling all
of the properties as a single portfolio. The General Partner has had
preliminary discussions regarding disposition, in whole or in part, of
the Partnership's properties with various potential purchasers of some
or all of the Partnership's portfolio.
In connection with its consideration of these alternatives, the
General Partner has decided to treat its properties as held for sale,
instead of for investment, for financial statement purposes. In
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to Be Disposed Of," the carrying value of these properties was
evaluated to ensure that each property was carried on the
Partnership's balance sheet at the lower of cost or fair value less
estimated selling costs. The General Partner estimated fair value for
this purpose based on appraisals performed as of January 1, 1996.
However, fair value can only be determined based upon sales to third
parties and sales proceeds could differ substantially.
Based upon the General Partner's survey of the current marketplace,
the General Partner believes, in fact, that in the relatively short
term the Partnership's properties could generate sales prices that, in
the aggregate, could be materially less than their aggregate appraised
values based upon an "Investment Value" appraisal model. The amount
of the possible variance between the aggregate appraised values and
potential sales prices cannot be reliably estimated at this time,
because of the numerous variables that could affect the sales prices,
including but not limited to the time frame in which the properties
must be sold, method of sale (property-by-property or single
transaction), prevailing capitalization rates at which comparable
properties are being sold at the time of the Partnership's sales,
constantly changing local market conditions and the state of leasing
negotiations and capital expenditures for the properties at the time
of sale.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Cont'd.)
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 1996
Compared With the Three Months Ended June 30, 1995 and for the Six
Months Ended June 30, 1996 Compared With the Six Months Ended
June 30, 1995
------------------------------------------------------------------
The increase in rental income for the three and six months ended June
30, 1996, as compared to the corresponding period in 1995, were
primarily attributable to an increase in revenue at Oakpointe and
Arlington Executive Plaza. At Oakpointe, Symbol Technologies' lease
encompassing 22,801 square feet was successfully negotiated for a five
year term effective February 1996 and at Arlington Executive Plaza,
Dawe's Laboratories lease encompassing 4,832 square feet and Drs.
Jessen, Wesley and Associate's lease encompassing 1,620 square feet
were negotiated in October and November 1995 respectively. The
aforementioned leases had the effect of increasing revenues in 1996
when compared to the corresponding period in 1995.
The decrease in interest income from 1995 to 1996 was attributable to
a decrease in the average level of working capital available for short
term investments.
The increase in operating expenses for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1996, as compared to the corresponding periods in 1995, was
primarily attributable to the increase in legal and professional
services resulting from real estate tax appeals at Arlington Executive
Plaza and Oakpointe and minor tenant disputes at the Cornerstone.
The decrease in real estate taxes for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1996, as compared to the corresponding periods in 1995, was
primarily as a result of a successful tax appeal at Arlington
Executive Plaza and Oakpointe.
The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the corresponding period in
1995 was attributable to the adoption of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-
Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed of," pursuant to
which assets held for sale are no longer depreciated.
The Partnership adjusted the carrying value of the portfolio by
$1,535,000, which is the amount spent on the building improvements,
tenant improvements, leasing commissions and other related assets for
the Partnership properties.

------------------------------------------------------------------
General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June,
1996 and 1995, include charges of $258,000 and $267,000, respectively,
from the General Partner and its affiliates for services rendered in
connection with administering the affairs of the Partnership and
operating the Partnership's properties. Also included in general and
administrative expenses for the six months ended June, 1996 and 1995,
are direct charges of $220,000 and $218,000, respectively, relating to
audit fees, tax preparation fees, legal fees and professional
services, liability insurance expenses, costs incurred in providing
information to the Limited Partners and other miscellaneous costs.
The decrease in general and administrative expenses for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the corresponding period in 1995,
was primarily attributable to a decrease in general and administrative
wages and appraisal fees. The aforementioned decrease was partially
offset by an increase in consulting fees during 1996.
