Item 5. Other Events
At the end of the 1996 fiscal year T. Rowe Price Realty Income
Fund I, A No-Load Limited Partnership (the "Partnership")
conducted its annual formal unit valuation. The valuation of the
Partnership's properties was performed by the General Partner,
and then reviewed by an independent professional appraiser. The
estimated value of limited partnership units resulting from this
process is $420 per unit. A $21.55 per unit distribution for the
September 1996 quarter representing a portion of the sales
proceeds of Dupont Business Park and operating cash flows will be
made on or about November 16, 1996 to limited partners of record
on September 30, 1996. After this distribution, the estimated
value is $398 per unit. There is no assurance that units can be
sold at a price equal to this estimated value, and this valuation
is not necessarily representative of the value of the units when
the Partnership ultimately liquidates its holdings.
