Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 1998
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1.
- -------
McNeil Real Estate Fund XXIV, L.P. (the "Partnership"), formerly known as
Southmark Equity Partners, Ltd., was organized on October 19, 1984, as a limited
partnership under the provisions of the California Revised Limited Partnership
Act to acquire and operate commercial and residential properties. The general
partner of the Partnership is McNeil Partners, L.P. (the "General Partner"), a
Delaware limited partnership, an affiliate of Robert A. McNeil ("McNeil"). The
principal place of business for the Partnership and the General Partner is 13760
Noel Road, Suite 600, LB70, Dallas, Texas, 75240.
In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments
necessary for a fair presentation of the Partnership's financial position and
results of operations. All adjustments were of a normal recurring nature.
However, the results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1998 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending
December 31, 1998.
NOTE 2.
- -------
The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements contained in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1997, and the notes thereto, as filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, which is available upon request by writing
to McNeil Real Estate Fund XXIV, L.P., c/o McNeil Real Estate Management, Inc.,
Investor Services, 13760 Noel Road, Suite 600, LB70, Dallas, Texas 75240.
NOTE 3.
- -------
The Partnership pays property management fees equal to 5% of the gross rental
receipts for its residential properties and 6% of gross rental receipts for its
commercial properties to McNeil Real Estate Management, Inc. ("McREMI"), an
affiliate of the General Partner, for providing property management services for
the Partnership's residential and commercial properties and leasing services for
its residential properties. McREMI may also choose to provide leasing services
for the Partnership's commercial properties, in which case McREMI will receive
property management fees from such commercial properties equal to 3% of the
property's gross rental receipts plus leasing commissions based on the
prevailing market rate for such services where the property is located.
Under the terms of its partnership agreement, the Partnership pays a disposition
fee to the General Partner equal to 3% of the gross sales price for brokerage
services performed in connection with the sale of the Partnership's properties.
The fee is due and payable at the time the sale closes. The Partnership incurred
$204,000 of such fees during the first quarter of 1998 and $55,500 of such fees
during the second quarter of 1998 in connection with the sale of Southpointe
Plaza and Island Plaza shopping centers, respectively. These fees have not yet
been paid by the Partnership and are included in payable to affiliates on the
Balance Sheet at June 30, 1998.
<PAGE>
The Partnership reimburses McREMI for its costs, including overhead, of
administering the Partnership's affairs.
The Partnership is paying an asset management fee which is payable to the
General Partner. Through 1999, the asset management fee is calculated as 1% of
the Partnership's tangible asset value. Tangible asset value is determined by
using the greater of (i) an amount calculated by applying a capitalization rate
of 9% to the annualized net operating income of each property or (ii) a value of
$10,000 per apartment unit for residential properties and $50 per gross square
foot for commercial properties to arrive at the property tangible asset value.
The property tangible asset value is then added to the book value of all other
assets excluding intangible items. The fee percentage decreases subsequent to
1999.
Compensation and reimbursements paid to or accrued for the benefit of the
General Partner or its affiliates are as follows:

did not reduce the amount of net cash proceeds received from the sale. The net
cash proceeds from the sale of Southpointe Plaza will be $1,115,730 after
payment of the disposition fee.

On April 1, 1998, the Partnership sold Island Plaza Shopping Center, located in
Ft. Myers, Florida, to an unaffiliated purchaser for a cash purchase price of
$1,850,000. The Partnership recorded a $126,080 write-down for impairment of

did not reduce the amount of net cash proceeds received from the sale. The net
cash proceeds from the sale of Island Plaza will be $1,769,020 after payment of
the disposition fee.
NOTE 6.
- -------
Effective January 1, 1996, the Partnership adopted the Financial Accounting
Standards Board's Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed Of." This statement requires the cessation of depreciation on assets
held for sale. Since Island Plaza, Southpointe Plaza and Springwood Plaza were
placed on the market for sale, no depreciation was taken effective April 1,
1996, October 1, 1996 and August 1, 1997, respectively.
NOTE 7.
- -------
On June 1, 1998, the Partnership received $1,650,000 in proceeds from a mortgage
note payable secured by Riverbay Plaza Shopping Center. The proceeds were used
to pay for improvements made in 1997 to renovate and expand an anchor tenant's
space. The mortgage note, payable to an unaffiliated lender, bears interest at a
variable rate equal to 1.75% plus the London Interbank Offered Rate per annum
and matures on April 15, 2001.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
- ------- ---------------------------------------------------------------
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
FINANCIAL CONDITION
- -------------------
On March 31, 1998, the Partnership sold Southpointe Plaza for a gross sales
price of $6.8 million. The Partnership recognized a $118,750 loss on the sale.
On April 1, 1998, the Partnership sold Island Plaza for a gross sales price of
$1.85 million. A $126,080 write-down for impairment of real estate was recorded
in the first quarter of 1998 and no gain or loss was recorded on the sale.
The Partnership reported a net loss for the first six months of 1998 of $126,761
as compared to net income of $319,953 for the first six months of 1997. Revenues
were $1,877,266 in 1998 as compared to $2,248,517 for the same period in 1997.
Expenses increased to $2,004,027 in 1998 from $1,928,564 in 1997.
In June 1998, the Partnership received $1,650,000 in proceeds from a mortgage
note payable secured by Riverbay Plaza Shopping Center. The proceeds were used
to pay for improvements made in 1997 to renovate and expand an anchor tenant's
space.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $574,215 for the first six months
of 1998. The Partnership expended $1,853,152 for capital improvements and
$31,075 for regularly scheduled principal payments on its mortgage note payable.
The Partnership received $8,438,530 in proceeds from the sales of Southpointe
Plaza and Island Plaza shopping centers, $5,261,942 of which was used to pay off
the mortgage note payable secured by Southpointe Plaza. The Partnership received
$1,650,000 in proceeds from a mortgage note payable secured by Riverbay Plaza
and distributed $1,500,000 to the limited partners. Cash and cash equivalents
increased by $2,016,576 for the first six months of 1998, leaving a balance of
$4,196,605 at June 30, 1998.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
Revenue:
Total revenue decreased by $420,484 and $371,251 for the three and six months
ended June 30, 1998, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 1997. The
decrease was due to decreases in rental revenue and gain on involuntary
conversion, partially offset by an increase in interest income, as discussed
below.
Rental revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 decreased by
$342,555 and $300,900, respectively, in relation to the comparable periods in
1997. Approximately $380,000 of the decrease was due to the sales of Southpointe
Plaza and Island Plaza on March 31, 1998 and April 1, 1998, respectively. In
addition, rental revenue decreased by approximately $38,000 at Towne Center due
to a major tenant vacating a large space in the second quarter of 1997. Rental
revenue increased by approximately $69,000, $29,000 and $23,000 at Riverbay
Plaza, Sleepy Hollow and Pine Hills due to increased rental rates and occupancy
in the first half of 1998. Rental revenue remained relatively unchanged at
Springwood Plaza.
<PAGE>
Interest income increased by $16,551 and $24,129 for the quarter and six months
ended June 30, 1998, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior
year. The increase was due to a higher amount of cash and cash equivalents
available for short-term investment in 1998, mainly due to net cash proceeds
from the sales of Southpointe Plaza and Island Plaza shopping centers received
in the second quarter of 1998.
A gain on involuntary conversion of $94,480 was recognized in the second quarter
of 1997 relating to fire damage that occurred at Riverbay Plaza Shopping Center.
The gain, which represented the insurance proceeds received in excess of the
basis of the property damaged, was recognized as reimbursement proceeds were
received from the insurance carrier. No such gain was recognized in the first
six months of 1998.
Expenses:
Total expenses decreased by $167,273 for the three months and increased by
$75,463 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the same periods
in 1997. The decrease for the quarter was mainly due to the sales of Southpointe
Plaza and Island Plaza on March 31, 1998 and April 1, 1998, respectively. The
overall increase in expenses for the six months was mainly due to a loss on
disposition of real estate and a write-down for impairment of real estate
recognized in the first quarter of 1998, as discussed below.
In conjunction with the sale of Southpointe Plaza, the mortgage note payable
secured by the property was retired. This resulted in a decrease in interest
expense of $84,230 and $89,797 for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998,
respectively, as compared to the same periods in 1997.
Depreciation and amortization expense for the three and six months ended June
30, 1998 decreased by $40,569 and $71,808, respectively, in relation to the same
periods in 1997. The decrease was due to Springwood Plaza being classified as an
asset held for sale by the Partnership effective August 1, 1997. In accordance
with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's 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 Partnership ceased
recording depreciation on this asset at the time it was placed on the market for
sale.
The sales of Southpointe Plaza and Island Plaza resulted in decreased property
taxes and repairs and maintenance expenses. For the three and six months ended
June 30, 1998, property taxes decreased by $42,161 and $53,089, respectively,
and repairs and maintenance decreased by $15,845 and $32,492, respectively, as
compared to the same periods in the prior year.
Property management fees for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998
decreased by $13,411 and $13,234, respectively, in relation to the same periods
in 1997. The decrease was a result of a decline in gross rental receipts, on
which the fees are based, mainly due to the sales of Southpointe Plaza and
Island Plaza in 1998.
Other property operating expense decreased by $61,138 and $60,486 for the three
and six months ended June 30, 1998, respectively, in relation to the comparable
periods in the prior year. Approximately $33,000 of the decrease was due to the
sales of Southpointe Plaza and Island Plaza in 1998. In addition, in 1997, a
greater amount of bad debts and amortization of prepaid leasing commissions were
recognized at Springwood Plaza due to a tenant vacating before the expiration of
their lease.

General and administrative expenses increased by $101,804 and $157,789 for the
three and six months ended June 30, 1998, respectively, as compared to the same
periods in 1997. The increase was mainly due to costs incurred in 1998 to
explore alternatives to maximize the value of the Partnership (see Liquidity and
Capital Resources).
The Partnership recognized a $118,750 loss on the sale of Southpointe Plaza
Shopping Center in the first six months of 1998. No such loss was recognized in
the first half of 1997.
Island Plaza Shopping Center was sold to an unaffiliated buyer on April 1, 1998.
The Partnership recorded a $126,080 write-down for impairment of real estate in
the first quarter of 1998 to record the property at its sales price less
estimated costs to sell. No such write-down was recorded in the first six months
of 1997.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
The Partnership's primary source of cash flows is from operating activities,
which generated $574,215 of cash in the first six months of 1998, comparable to
the $567,270 generated for the same period in 1997.
The Partnership expended $1,853,152 and $296,654 for capital improvements to its
properties in the first six months of 1998 and 1997, respectively. In the fourth
quarter of 1997, improvements totaling approximately $1.6 million were performed
at Riverbay Plaza to renovate and expand an anchor tenant's space. These costs
were paid by the tenant and reimbursed by the Partnership in the second quarter
of 1998.
On April 1, 1998, the Partnership received a total of $8,438,530 in proceeds
from the sales of Southpointe Plaza and Island Plaza shopping centers.
$5,261,942 of the proceeds was used to repay the Southpointe Plaza mortgage note
payable.
In the first half of 1997, the Partnership received $145,046 in proceeds from
the insurance company for fire damage that occurred at Riverbay Plaza Shopping
Center. No such insurance proceeds were received in the first half of 1998.
The Partnership made $31,075 and $65,589 in regularly scheduled principal
payments on the Southpointe Plaza mortgage note payable in the first six months
of 1998 and 1997, respectively. The decrease in 1998 was due to the sale of the
property and the repayment of the loan on April 1, 1998.
In June 1998, the Partnership received $1,650,000 in proceeds from a mortgage
note payable secured by Riverbay Plaza Shopping Center. The proceeds were used
to pay for improvements made in 1997 to renovate and expand an anchor tenant's
space.
The Partnership distributed $1,500,000 to the limited partners in the first half
of 1998. No distributions were paid to the limited partners in the first half of
1997. In light of the discussions relating to the sale transaction as disclosed,
the Partnership is presently deferring any decision with respect to the amount
or timing of distributions to limited partners.
<PAGE>
Short-term liquidity:
At June 30, 1998, the Partnership held cash and cash equivalents of $4,196,605.
This balance provides a reasonable level of working capital for the
Partnership's immediate needs in operating its properties.
For the Partnership as a whole, management projects positive cash flow from
operations in 1998. The Partnership has budgeted approximately $619,000 for
necessary capital improvements for all properties in 1998 (excluding the
approximately $1.6 million of tenant improvements that were completed in 1997
but not reimbursed to the tenant until 1998). These capital improvements are
expected to be funded from available cash reserves or from operations of the
properties. The present cash balance is believed to provide an adequate reserve
for property operations.
In 1997, improvements totaling approximately $1.6 million were performed at
Riverbay Plaza to renovate and expand an anchor tenant's space. These costs were
paid by the tenant and reimbursed by the Partnership in 1998. The Partnership
obtained a mortgage loan secured by Riverbay Plaza to pay these costs and
received such funds in June 1998.
On March 31, 1998, the Partnership sold Southpointe Plaza Shopping Center,
located in Sacramento, California, to an unaffiliated purchaser for a cash
purchase price of $6,800,000. On April 1, 1998, cash proceeds totaling
$6,614,010 were received and $5,294,280 was used to pay the principal and
accrued interest balance of the mortgage note payable secured by the property.
An additional $204,000 disposition fee is payable to the General Partner.
On April 1, 1998, the Partnership sold Island Plaza Shopping Center, located in
Ft. Myers, Florida, to an unaffiliated purchaser for a cash purchase price of
$1,850,000. Cash proceeds totaling $1,824,520 were received after payment of
various closing costs. An additional $55,500 disposition fee is payable to the
General Partner.
Additional efforts to maintain and improve partnership liquidity have included
continued attention to property management activities. The objective has been to
obtain maximum occupancy rates while holding expenses to levels necessary to
maximize cash flows. The Partnership has made capital expenditures on its
properties where improvements were expected to increase the competitiveness and
marketability of the properties.
Long-term liquidity:
While the present outlook for the Partnership's liquidity is favorable, market
conditions may change and property operations can deteriorate. In that event,
the Partnership would require other sources of working capital. No such other
sources have been identified and the Partnership has no established lines of
credit. Other possible actions to resolve working capital deficiencies include
refinancing or renegotiating terms of existing loans, deferring major capital
expenditures on Partnership properties except where improvements are expected to
enhance the competitiveness or marketability of the properties, or arranging
working capital support from affiliates. No affiliate support has been required
in the past, and there is no assurance that support would be provided in the
future, since neither the General Partner nor any affiliates have any obligation
in this regard.
<PAGE>
As previously announced, the Partnership has retained PaineWebber
("PaineWebber"), Incorporated as its exclusive financial advisor to explore
alternatives to maximize the value of the Partnership including, without
limitation, a transaction in which limited partnership interests in the
Partnership are converted into cash. The Partnership, through PaineWebber, has
provided financial and other information to interested parties and is currently
conducting discussions with one such party in an attempt to reach a definitive
agreement with respect to a sale transaction. It is possible that the General
Partner and its affiliates will receive non-cash consideration for their
ownership interests in connection with any such transaction. There can be no
assurance that any such agreement will be reached nor the terms thereof.
Forward-Looking Information:
Within this document, certain statements are made as to the expected occupancy
trends, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows of the
Partnership for periods after June 30, 1998. All of these statements are
forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are not
historical and involve risks and uncertainties. The Partnership's actual
occupancy trends, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for
future periods may differ materially due to several factors. These factors
include, but are not limited to, the Partnership's ability to control costs,
make necessary capital improvements, negotiate sales or refinancings of its
properties, and respond to changing economic and competitive factors.
Other Information:
Management has begun to review its information technology infrastructure to
identify any systems that could be affected by the year 2000 problem. The year
2000 problem is the result of computer programs being written using two digits
rather than four to define the applicable year. Any programs that have
time-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather
than the year 2000. This could result in major systems failure or
miscalculations. The information systems used by the Partnership for financial
reporting and significant accounting functions were made year 2000 compliant
during recent systems conversions. The Partnership is in the process of
evaluating the computer systems at the various properties. The Partnership also
intends to communicate with suppliers, financial institutions and others to
coordinate year 2000 issues. Management believes that the remediation of any
outstanding year 2000 conversion issues will not have a material or adverse
effect on the Partnership's operations.

Fund XXIV, L.P., McNeil Real Estate Fund XXV, L.P., McNeil Real Estate Fund
XXVI, L.P., and McNeil Real Estate Fund XXVII, L.P., et al. - Superior Court of
the State of California for the County of Los Angeles, Case No. BC133799 (Class
and Derivative Action Complaint).
The action involves purported class and derivative actions brought by limited
partners of each of the fourteen limited partnerships that were named as nominal
defendants as listed above (the "Partnerships"). Plaintiffs allege that McNeil
Investors, Inc., its affiliate McNeil Real Estate Management, Inc. and three of
their senior officers and/or directors (collectively, the "Defendants") breached
their fiduciary duties and certain obligations under the respective Amended
Partnership Agreement. Plaintiffs allege that Defendants have rendered such
Units highly illiquid and artificially depressed the prices that are available
for Units on the resale market. Plaintiffs also allege that Defendants engaged
in a course of conduct to prevent the acquisition of Units by an affiliate of
Carl Icahn by disseminating purportedly false, misleading and inadequate
information. Plaintiffs further allege that Defendants acted to advance their
own personal interests at the expense of the Partnerships' public unit holders
by failing to sell Partnership properties and failing to make distributions to
unitholders.
On December 16, 1996, the Plaintiffs filed a consolidated and amended complaint.
Plaintiffs are suing for breach of fiduciary duty, breach of contract and an
accounting, alleging, among other things, that the management fees paid to the
McNeil affiliates over the last six years are excessive, that these fees should
be reduced retroactively and that the respective Amended Partnership Agreements
governing the Partnerships are invalid.
Defendants filed a demurrer to the consolidated and amended complaint and a
motion to strike on February 14, 1997, seeking to dismiss the consolidated and
amended complaint in all respects. A hearing on Defendant's demurrer and motion
to strike was held on May 5, 1997. The Court granted Defendants' demurrer,
dismissing the consolidated and amended complaint with leave to amend. On
October 31, 1997, the Plaintiffs filed a second consolidated and amended
complaint. The case has been stayed pending settlement discussions. While
actively working toward a final resolution, there can be no assurances regarding
settlement.
