                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Balcor Current Income Fund-85 A Real Estate Limited Partnership (the
"Partnership") is a limited partnership formed in 1985 to invest in and operate
income-producing real property. The Partnership raised $57,074,000 through the
sale of Limited Partnership Interests and utilized these proceeds to acquire
five real property investments. The Partnership continues to operate these five
properties.

Inasmuch as the management's discussion and analysis below relates primarily to
the time period since the end of the last fiscal year, investors are encouraged
to review the financial statements and the management's discussion and analysis
contained in the annual report for 1994 for a more complete understanding of
the Partnership's financial position.

Summary of Operations
---------------------

As a result of improved operations at two of the Partnership's properties and
decreased depreciation expense at American Way Mall due to an investment
property writedown during 1994, the Partnership recognized a smaller net loss
for the six months and quarter ended June 30, 1995 as compared to the same
periods in 1994. Further discussion of the Partnership's operations are
summarized below.

1995 Compared to 1994
---------------------

Rental and service income decreased during the six months and quarter ended
June 30, 1995 as compared to the same periods in 1994 as a result of a decrease
in occupancy at American Way Mall. The decrease in rental and service income
was partially offset by increases in rental income at El Dorado Hills and
Providence Square Apartments due to increased average rental rates and/or
occupancy.

Increased cash available for short-term investment and higher average interest
rates were the primary reasons for an increase in interest income on short-term
investments during the six months and quarter ended June 30, 1995 as compared
to the same periods in 1994.

During the latter part of 1994, the Partnership determined that the value of
the American Way Mall had been impaired. Accordingly, the Partnership
recognized a provision for investment property writedown in 1994 which resulted
in a decrease in depreciation expense for the six months and quarter ended June
30, 1995 as compared to the same periods in 1994.

Due to decreases in plumbing repairs and carpeting expenditures at El Dorado
Hills Apartments, and the completion of the repair and renovation program at
Providence Square Apartments, property operating expense decreased for the six
months and quarter ended June 30, 1995 as compared to the same periods in 1994.
The decrease in expense for the quarter ended June 30, 1995 was partially
offset by an increase in collection fees related to delinquent rent at American
Way Mall.
<PAGE>
Due to reductions by the taxing authorities in the assessed values of the
American Way Mall and the El Dorado Hills apartment complex, real estate tax
expense decreased during the six months and quarter ended June 30, 1995 as
compared to the same periods in 1994.

Administrative expense decreased during the six months ended June 30, 1995 as
compared to the same period in 1994 as a result of a decrease in investor and
data processing costs and printing fees.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

The cash position of the Partnership increased as of June 30, 1995 when
compared to December 31, 1994 primarily due to increased cash flow generated by
the Partnership's properties, which is being retained by the Partnership for
working capital reserves. The Partnership's cash flow provided by operating
activities in 1995 was generated primarily from the operations of the
Partnership's properties and interest earned on short-term investments, and was
partially offset by the payment of administrative costs. The cash flow provided
by operating activities was partially used to fund financing activities which
consisted of the payment of principal on the Partnership's mortgage notes
payable.

The Partnership classifies the cash flow performance of its properties as
either positive, a marginal deficit or a significant deficit, each after
consideration of debt service payments, unless otherwise indicated. A deficit
is considered significant if it exceeds $250,000 annually or 20% of the
property's rental and service income. The Partnership defines cash flow
generated from its properties as an amount equal to the property's revenue
receipts less property related expenditures, which include debt service
payments. During the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, the American Way
Mall, Storage USA of Norcross and Willow Lawn self-storage facilities all
generated positive cash flow after applicable debt service payments. The
American Way Mall does not have underlying debt. The El Dorado Hills and
Providence Square Apartments generated positive cash flow during the six months
ended June 30, 1995 as compared to marginal cash flow deficits after debt
service for the same period in 1994 due to an increase in rental income and a
decrease in plumbing repairs and carpeting expenditures at the El Dorado Hills
Apartments, and an increase in rental income and a decrease in expenditures
incurred in connection with the repair and renovation program at the Providence
Square Apartments.

While the cash flow of certain of the Partnership's properties has improved,
the General Partner continues to pursue a number of actions aimed at improving
the cash flow of the Partnership's properties including improving property
operating performance and seeking rent increases where market conditions allow.
As of June 30, 1995, the occupancy rates of the Partnership's apartment
complexes and storage facilities ranged from 92% to 98%. The American Way Mall
had an occupancy rate of 54% at June 30, 1995. The Partnership is evaluating
alternative strategies to sell or redevelop this property. Despite improvements
in the local economies and rental markets where certain of the Partnership's
properties are located, the General Partner believes that continued ownership
of many of the properties is in the best interest of the Partnership in order
to maximize potential returns to Limited Partners. Consequently, the
Partnership will continue to own these properties for longer than the holding
period for the assets originally described in the Prospectus.
<PAGE>
Four of the Partnership's properties are owned through the use of third-party
mortgage loan financing and, therefore, the Partnership is subject to the
financial obligations required by such loans. The Partnership's third-party
financing matures in December 1995 and the Partnership is exploring other
third-party financing options. In addition, the Partnership, at its option may
extend the current financing for two successive one year periods.

Pursuant to the terms of the 1992 financing and refinancing agreements on four
of the Partnership's properties, distributions of Net Cash Receipts could not
be made to the General Partner or Limited Partners until certain conditions in
the loan agreements were met, including achievement of specified working
capital levels by the Partnership and required ratios between total net income
at all the collateral properties to total debt service. All of these conditions
have now been met. However, the Partnership will continue to retain cash
reserves as it works to resolve the situation at American Way Mall and the
Partnership's financing issues. In addition, future distributions will also
depend upon cash flow from Partnership properties and proceeds from future
property sales, as to both of which, there can be no assurances.

Inflation has several types of potentially conflicting impacts on real estate
investments. Short-term inflation can increase real estate operating costs
which may or may not be recovered through increased rents and/or sales prices,
depending on general or local economic conditions. In the long-term, inflation
can be expected to increase operating costs and replacement costs and may lead
to increased rental revenues and real estate values.
