                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                   Three Months Ended March 31, 1996 and 1995
                                   (Unaudited)

1. GENERAL PARTNERS' DISCLOSURE

   In  the  opinion of the  General  Partners  of  Realmark  Property  Investors
   Limited Partnership IV, all adjustments  necessary for a fair presentation of
   the Partnership's  financial  position,  results of operations and changes in
   cash flows for the three month  periods  ended March 31, 1996 and 1995,  have
   been  made  in  the  financial  statements.  Such  financial  statements  are
   unaudited and subject to any year-end adjustments which may be necessary.

2. FORMATION AND OPERATION OF PARTNERSHIP

   Realmark Property Investors Limited  Partnership IV (the  "Partnership"),  a
   Delaware Limited Partnership, was formed on February 12, 1985, to invest in a
   diversified portfolio of income-producing real estate investments.

   In  April 1985,  the  Partnership  commenced the public  offering of units of
   limited partnership interest. Other than matters relating to organization, it
   had no business activities and, accordingly, had not incurred any expenses or
   earned any income until the first interim  closing  (minimum  closing) of the
   offering, which occurred on September 20, 1985. On June 22, 1986 the offering
   was concluded,  at which time 23,362.9 units of limited partnership  interest
   were  outstanding,  excluding  3 units held by an  affiliate  of the  General
   Partners. The General Partners are Realmark Properties,  Inc., a wholly-owned
   subsidiary  of J.M.  Jayson  &  Company,  Inc.  and  Joseph  M.  Jayson,  the
   Individual General Partner.  Joseph M. Jayson is the sole shareholder of J.M.
   Jayson & Company, Inc.

   Under the  partnership  agreement,  the general partners and their affiliates
   can receive compensation for services rendered and reimbursement for expenses
   incurred on behalf of the Partnership.

   Net income  or loss and proceeds arising from a sale or refinancing  shall be
   distributed  first to the  limited  partners  in amounts  equivalent  to a 7%
   return on the average of their adjusted capital contributions, then an amount
   equal to their capital  contributions,  then an amount equal to an additional
   5% of the average of their adjusted capital  contributions  after the general
   partners  receive a disposition  fee, then to all partners in an amount equal
   to their respective  positive capital balances and, finally,  in the ratio of
   87% to the limited partners and 13% to the general partners.

   FORMATION AND OPERATION OF PARTNERSHIP  (CONTINUED)

   The  partnership   agreement   also  provides  that  distribution  of  funds,
   revenues,  costs and expenses arising from partnership activities,  exclusive
   of any sale or refinancing activities, are to be allocated 97% to the limited
   partners and 3% to the general partners.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

   Cash
   ----

   For  purposes of reporting  cash flows,  cash includes the  following  items:
   cash on hand; cash in checking; and money market savings.

   Property and Depreciation
   -------------------------

   Depreciation is  provided using the  straight-line  method over the estimated
   useful lives of the  respective  assets.  Expenditures  for  maintenance  and
   repairs are expensed as incurred,  and major  renewals  and  betterments  are
   capitalized.  The Accelerated  Cost Recovery System and Modified  Accelerated
   Cost  Recovery  System are used to  determine  depreciation  expense  for tax
   purposes.

   Rental Income
   -------------

   Leases  for residential properties have terms of one year or less. Commercial
   leases have terms of from one to five years.  Rental  income is recognized on
   the straight line method over the term of the lease.

   Minority Interest in Consolidated Joint Venture
   -----------------------------------------------

   The  minority  interest  in  a  consolidated  joint  venture is stated at the
   amount of capital  contributed by the minority  investors  adjusted for their
   share of joint venture losses.

4. ACQUISITION AND DISPOSITION OF RENTAL PROPERTY

   In  November 1985,  the  Partnership  acquired a 168 unit  apartment  complex
   (Lakeview Village) located in Milwaukee,  Wisconsin,  for a purchase price of
   $4,411,659, which included $320,779 in acquisition fees.

   In  December 1985,  the  Partnership  acquired a 288 unit  apartment  complex
   (Sutton Park,  formerly  Bristol Square)  located in Lansing,  Michigan for a
   purchase price of $7,252,858, which included $588,716 in acquisition fees.

   ACQUISITION AND DISPOSITION OF RENTAL PROPERTY  (CONTINUED)

   In  August 1986,  the  Partnership  acquired two  office/warehouse  buildings
   consisting  of 62,598 square feet (Airlane I) and 68,300 square feet (Airlane
   III),  consisting of  approximately  25% office space and 75% warehouse space
   located in Nashville,  Tennessee,  for a purchase price of $6,180,920,  which
   included $383,169 in acquisition fees.

   In  October 1986, the Partnership acquired an 86 unit apartment complex (Gold
   Key  Village  II)  located  in  Englewood,  Ohio  for  a  purchase  price  of
   $2,354,615, which included $152,744 in acquisition fees.

   In  December  1986,  the  Partnership   acquired   two  apartment   complexes
   consisting of 96 and 144 units (Creekside Apartments, formerly Bretton Park I
   and II) located in Flat Rock,  Michigan,  for a purchase price of $5,462,176,
   which included $445,964 in acquisition fees.

   In  December 1986,  the  Partnership  acquired a 215 unit  apartment  complex
   (Willow Creek) located in Greenville, South Carolina, for a purchase price of
   $5,040,560, which included $477,987 in acquisition fees.

   In  December  1986,  the  Partnership  acquired a 72 unit  apartment  complex
   (Evergreen  Terrace)  located in Lansing,  Michigan  for a purchase  price of
   $1,1711,093, which included $314,379 in acquisition fees.

   In  May 1987, the  Partnership  acquired a 56 unit  apartment  complex (Cedar
   Court)  located  in  Monroeville,  Pennsylvania,  for  a  purchase  price  of
   $1,439,832, which included $370,728 in acquisition fees.

   In  1988, the Partnership acquired, upon its dissolution,  the net assets and
   liabilities of the Willow Lake Joint  Venture,  which amounted to $1,635,474.
   Since the date of the acquisition, the Partnership had capitalized additional
   construction  costs of  $5,059,296  which  included  capitalized  interest of
   $151,993.  Construction on this project was  substantially  complete in early
   1991.  During  September  1992,  Willow  Lake's  lender  foreclosed  and took
   possession  of  the  property  because  the  Partnership  had  difficulty  in
   obtaining tenant leases and financing to complete tenant build-out costs. The
   disposal generated a $1,328,352 loss for financial statement purposes.

   In  October,  1989 the Partnership sold the Gold Key II apartment complex for
   $2,881,136  which  generated  a gain  of  $911,177  for  financial  statement
   purposes.

8. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

   Management  fees  for  the   management  of  certain  of  the   Partnership's
   properties are paid to an affiliate of the General  Partners.  The management
   agreement  provides for 5% of gross  monthly  receipts of the complexes to be
   paid as fees for administering  the operations of the properties.  These fees
   totaled  $247,223  and $224,190 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and
   1995, respectively.

   The  Partnership entered into a management  agreement with an unrelated third
   party  for the  management  of  Airlane  I and III on August  15,  1986.  The
   agreement provides for the payment of a management fee equal to 4% of monthly
   gross rental  income.  An affiliate of the General  Partners  also receives a
   management fee of 2% of monthly gross rental income.

   According to  the terms of the Partnership  Agreement,  the Corporate General
   Partner is also entitled to receive a partnership  management fee equal to 7%
   of net cash flow (as defined in the  Partnership  Agreement),  2% of which is
   subordinated  to the limited  partners  having received an annual cash return
   equal to 7% of their average adjusted capital contributions.  No such fee was
   paid or accrued by the  partnership for the three months ended March 31, 1996
   and 1995.

   Accounts  payable  to  affiliates  amounted to $2,212,802  and  $1,516,273 at
   March 31, 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  The payables  represent fees due and
   advances  from the Corporate  General  Partner or an affiliate of the General
   Partners. Interest charged on accounts payable to affiliates totaled $194,407
   and $103,681 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995.

   The General Partners are  also allowed to collect a property  disposition fee
   upon sale of acquired properties. This fee is not to exceed the lesser of 50%
   of  amounts  customarily  charged  in  arm's-length  transactions  by  others
   rendering  similar  services for  comparable  properties,  or 3% of the sales
   price. The property disposition fee is subordinate to payments to the limited
   partners of a cumulative  annual return (not compounded) equal to 7% of their
   average adjusted capital balances and to repayment to the limited partners of
   an  amount  equal  to  their  original  capital  contributions.  Since  these
   conditions  have not been met, no fees have been recorded or paid on the sale
   of the Gold Key II apartment complex.

   Computer  service  charges  for  the  partnerships  are paid or accrued to an
   affiliate  of the  General  Partner.  The fee is  based  upon the  number  of
   apartment  units and totaled  $20,394 and $20,200 for the three  months ended
   March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

   partner  charged  the  Partnership  for  reimbursement  of certain  costs and
   expenses  incurred by the  Corporate  General  Partner and its  affiliates in

   communication costs related to Partnership accounting,  partner communication

   expenses are  allocated  based on total assets,  number of partners,  and the
   market value of properties  respectively.  These charges totaled $283,984 and
   $177,093 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

9. INCOME TAXES

   No  provision  has been made for income taxes since the income or loss of the
   partnership is to be included in the tax returns of the Individual Partners.

   The  tax returns of the Partnership are subject to examination by the Federal
   and state  taxing  authorities.  Under  federal  and state  income  tax laws,
   regulations  and  rulings,  certain  types of  transactions  may be  accorded
   varying interpretations and, accordingly,  reported partnership amounts could
   be changed as a result of any such examination.

   The  reconciliation of net loss for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and
   1995 as reported in the  statements of  operations,  and as would be reported
   for tax purposes, is as follows:


                                                   March 31,         March 31,

PART II    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF 
           FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The Partnership  continues to encounter cash flow difficulties,  although not as
bad as the same  period  in 1995.  The  General  Partner  loans  increased  from
$1,751,000  for the period  ended  March 31, 1995 to  $2,440,000  for the period
ended March 31,  1996.  The General  Partner is under no  obligation  to advance
funds and there is no assurance that the General Partner will continue to do so.
All  advances  are  payable  on  demand.   The  Partnership  did  not  make  any
distributions  for the three month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, and it
does  not  envision  making  any  future  distributions  until  all  partnership
obligations are satisfied.

The notes  receivable from the sale of Gold Key II matured in the fourth quarter
of 1995.  The  mortgagees  did not pay the note;  we are in the process of legal
action to collect on the notes.

The Partnership  refinanced the Sutton Park (formerly Bristol Square Apartments)
and the Lakeview  Apartments in January,  1996.  This allowed the Partnership to
use an $800,000 discount on the Sutton Park mortgage. This not only reduced debt
service in both  complexes,  but also will  decrease the mortgage  approximately
$2,460 per month at Bristol Square and approximately $450 per month at Lakeview.
This  extremely  high  cost  of  refinancing   these  properties  did,  however,
contribute to the large increase in the payable to the General Partner.

Results of Operations:
- ----------------------

Net loss for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 amounted to $139,944 or
$5.81 per limited  partnership  unit versus a net loss of $445,784 or $18.51 per
limited partnership unit for the quarter ended March 31, 1995.

On a tax basis, the partnership generated a loss of $71,643 or $2.97 per limited
partnership  unit for the three month period ended March 31, 1996  compared to a
tax loss of $456,538 or $18.95 per unit for the three month  period  ended March
31, 1995.

Partnership  revenue for the quarter  ended March 31, 1996  totaled  $1,493,040,
increasing just over $54,000 from the corresponding  1995 period.  Rental income
increased over $25,000, while interest and other income increased  approximately
$29,000.  The  increase  in both  rental  and  other  income  was due to  higher
occupancy and  increased  rents in all  properties  with the exception of Sutton
Park (formerly Bristol Square Apartments).

<PAGE>

For the three month period ended March 31, 1996,  partnership  expenses  totaled
$1,636,143,  a decrease of $259,961 from the quarter ended March 31, 1995. Total
interest expense decreased  approximately  $10,740,  the result of both new debt
structure  agreements  reached between the Partnership and the mortgage holders,
and a lower  carrying  amount on the General  Partner  advances.  Administrative
charges  meanwhile,  decreased  roughly  $43,000.  Property  operations  charges
dropped approximately $143,000 between the two periods.

Management  is confident  that the momentum  maintained in recent months will be
sustained by the  Partnership in future  periods.  Occupancy  rates at virtually
every  Partnership  property have stayed the same or dropped  slightly since the
last quarter.  Expenses meanwhile,  should hold steady,  remaining approximately
the same as the first quarter.

For the three month  period ended March 31, 1996,  the  Lakeview  Joint  Venture
generated  a net  loss of  $19,474  with  16.22%  of the loss  allocated  to the
minority venturer.  For the three months ended March 31, 1995, the joint venture
had a net loss of $69,808.
