NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation
have been made to the accompanying statements for the quarter ended March 31,
1999, and all such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.
2. Partnership Termination:
The Partnership Agreement provides for the dissolution of the Partnership upon
the occurrence of certain events, including the disposition of all interests in

reserve for contingencies. The timing of the termination of the Partnership and
final distribution of cash will depend upon the nature and extent of
liabilities and contingencies which exist or may arise. Such contingencies may
include legal and other fees and costs stemming from litigation involving the
Partnership. There can be no assurances as to the time frame for the
conclusion of contingencies which exist or may arise.

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. As of March 31, 1999, the Partnership had no
properties remaining in its portfolio.
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 1998 for a more complete understanding of
the Partnership's financial position.
Operations
- ----------
Summary of Operations
- ---------------------
The operations of the Partnership in 1999 and 1998 consisted primarily of
administrative expenses which were partially offset by interest income earned
on short-term investments. In addition, the Partnership paid property operating
expenses in 1998 related to one of the properties sold during 1997. Primarily
as a result of lower administrative expenses in 1999 and the property operating
expenses paid in 1998, the Partnership's net loss decreased during 1999 as
compared to 1998. Further discussion of the Partnership's operations is
summarized below.
1999 Compared to 1998
- ---------------------
Discussions of fluctuations between 1999 and 1998 refer to the quarters ended
March 31, 1999 and 1998.
As a result of lower average cash balances due in part to a distribution to
Limited Partners in January 1998 and lower interest rates, interest income on
short-term investments decreased during 1999 when compared to 1998.
During 1998, the Partnership paid property operating expenses related to one of
the properties sold during 1997.
Primarily due to a decrease in accounting and legal fees, administrative
expenses decreased during 1999 when compared to 1998.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The cash position of the Partnership decreased by approximately $25,000 as of
March 31, 1999 when compared to December 31, 1998 due to the payment of
<PAGE>
administrative expenses, which was partially offset by interest income earned
on short-term investments.
The Partnership Agreement provides for the dissolution of the Partnership upon
the occurrence of certain events, including the disposition of all interests in
real estate. The Partnership sold its final real estate investment in February
1997. The Partnership has retained a portion of the cash from the property
sales to satisfy obligations of the Partnership as well as to establish a
reserve for contingencies. The timing of the termination of the Partnership and
final distribution of cash will depend upon the nature and extent of liabilities
and contingencies which exist or may arise. Such contingencies may include legal
and other fees and costs stemming from litigation involving the Partnership.
There can be no assurances as to the time frame for the conclusion of
contingencies which exist or may arise.
Limited Partners have received cumulative distributions totaling $859.67 per
$1,000 Interest, as well as certain tax benefits. Of this amount, $173.34 has
been from Net Cash Receipts and $686.33 has been from Net Cash Proceeds. No
additional distributions are anticipated to be made prior to the termination of
the Partnership. However, after paying final partnership expenses, any
remaining cash reserves will be distributed. Limited Partners will not recover
all of their original investment.
The Partnership sold all of its remaining real property investments and
distributed a majority of the proceeds from these sales to Limited Partners in
1996 and 1997. Since the Partnership no longer has any operating assets, the
number of computer systems and programs necessary to operate the Partnership
has been significantly reduced. The Partnership relies on third party vendors
to perform most of its functions and has implemented a plan to determine the
Year 2000 compliance status of these key vendors. The Partnership is within its
timeline for having these plans completed prior to the year 2000.
The Partnership's plan to determine the Year 2000 compliance status of its key
vendors involves the solicitation of information from these vendors through the
use of surveys, follow-up discussions and review of data where needed. The
Partnership has sent out surveys to these vendors and received back a majority
of these surveys. While the Partnership cannot guarantee Year 2000 compliance
by its key vendors, and in many cases will be relying on statements from these
vendors without independent verification, preliminary surveys indicate that the
key vendors performing services for the Partnership are aware of the issues and
are working on a solution to achieve compliance before the year 2000. The
Partnership is in the process of developing a contingency plan in the event any
of its key vendors are not Year 2000 compliant prior to the year 2000. As part
of its contingency plan, the Partnership will identify replacement vendors in
the event that current vendors are not substantially Year 2000 compliant by
June 30, 1999. The Partnership does not believe that failure by any of its key
vendors to be Year 2000 compliant by the year 2000 would have a material effect
on the business, financial position or results of operations of the
Partnership.
