ITEM 2.  DISPOSITION OF ASSET

         On October 15, 1999, Damson/Birtcher Realty Income Fund-I (the
"Partnership") sold The Cornerstone shopping center, in Tempe, Arizona to GDA
Real Estate Services, LLC ("GDA"), a Denver-based real estate developer and
operator that is not affiliated in any way with the Partnership, its General
Partner or the General Partner's affiliates, for a sale price of $8,500,000.

         GDA was represented by two third-party brokers in the transaction. The
brokers were paid $170,000 from the sale proceeds. The General Partner was not
paid a disposition fee in connection with the transaction. GDA will not hire the
General Partner or any affiliate to perform asset management or property
management services for this property.

         The Partnership realized approximately $7,754,000, or approximately $80
per $1,000 originally invested in the Partnership, in distributable cash
proceeds from the sale of The Cornerstone, after deducting for closing costs and
prorations (including a $230,000 credit to GDA for repair of the parking lot)
totaling approximately $576,000 in connection with the sale.

         Currently, three lawsuits are pending against the Partnership and its
General Partner and certain of its affiliates that seek, among things,
unspecified monetary damages. These lawsuits are discussed in the Partnership's
quarterly and annual reports. Since these cases are in the preliminary discovery
phase, there is unavoidable uncertainty regarding their ultimate resolution. The
Partnership Agreement mandates that the General Partner provide for all of the
Partnership's liabilities and obligations, including contingent liabilities,
before distributing liquidation proceeds to its partners. Therefore, the
Partnership will not distribute liquidation proceeds until the uncertainty
surrounding these lawsuits is sufficiently resolved. The amount and timing of
any distribution of liquidation proceeds will be determined by the General
Partner in light of these and other relevant considerations.
