                    DAVIDSON DIVERSIFIED REAL ESTATE II, L.P.

                                December 15, 1998



Dear Limited Partner:

         The Managing General Partner has been advised that Cooper River
Properties, L.L.C. ("Cooper River"), which is an affiliate of the Managing
General Partner, has reduced its purchase price and now seeks to purchase up to
400 Units for $3,067 per Unit (the "Offer").

         Due to the affiliation between the Managing General Partner of the
Partnership and Cooper River, the Managing General Partner is subject to certain
conflicts of interest in connection with the response to the Offer. As a result,
the Partnership and the Managing General Partner are remaining neutral as to
whether Limited Partners should tender their Units in response to the Offer.

                                  Sincerely,



                                  Davidson Diversified Real Estate II, L.P.
