ITEM 2 - Disposition of Assets

      The Chandler's Reach  Apartments,  Redmond,  Washington and the Monterra
Apartments, LaJolla, California

   Disposition Date - October 2, 1998

      On  October  2,  1998,  Lake  Sammamish   Limited   Partnership  and  Crow
PaineWebber  LaJolla  Limited  Partnership,  two joint  ventures  in which Paine
Webber  Equity  Partners  One Limited  Partnership  ("the  Partnership")  has an
interest,  sold the properties  known as the Chandler's Reach Apartments and the
Monterra  Apartments to the same  unrelated  third  parties.  Chandler's  Reach,
located in  Redmond,  Washington,  was sold for $17.85  million,  and  Monterra,
located in LaJolla,  California,  was sold for $20.1  million.  The  Partnership
received net proceeds of  approximately  $12,359,000 from the sale of Chandler's
Reach after deducting closing costs of approximately $561,000, closing proration
adjustments of  approximately  $55,000,  the repayment of the existing  mortgage
note of  approximately  $3,415,000  and a  prepayment  penalty of  approximately
$354,000,   of  which  $205,000  was  paid  by  the  buyer,  and  a  payment  of
approximately  $1,311,000 to the Partnership's  co-venture partner for its share
of the sale  proceeds  in  accordance  with the  joint  venture  agreement.  The
Partnership received net proceeds of approximately  $14,796,000 from the sale of
Monterra  after  deducting  closing  costs of  approximately  $306,000,  closing
proration adjustments of approximately  $114,000,  the repayment of the existing
mortgage  note  of  approximately   $4,672,000  and  a  prepayment   penalty  of
approximately  $500,000,  of which $295,000 was paid by the buyer, and a payment
of approximately $7,000 to the Partnership's co-venture partner for its share of
the sale proceeds in accordance with the joint venture agreement.

     Despite  incurring  sizable  prepayment  penalties on the repayment of both
outstanding first mortgage loans,  management  believed that the current sale of
the  Chandler's  Reach and Monterra  properties was in the best interests of the
Limited Partners due to the exceptionally strong market conditions that exist at
the present time and which resulted in the achievement of very favorable selling
prices.  The Partnership  will distribute the majority of the net sales proceeds
from  the  sales of  Chandler's  Reach  and  Monterra  in the form of a  special
distribution to be paid with the regular quarterly  distribution for the quarter
ended  September  30, 1998 on November  13,  1998. A portion of the net proceeds
(10% or less) may be retained and added to the  Partnership's  cash  reserves to
ensure that the Partnership has sufficient  capital  resources to fund its share
of  potential  capital   improvement   expenses  at  its  remaining   investment
properties.   The  Managing   General   Partner  is  currently   analyzing   the
Partnership's  potential  future capital  requirements in order to determine the
exact  amount,  if any,  that the  Partnership  should  retain from the net sale
proceeds.

bearing money market account with an FDIC insured bank reasonably  acceptable to
Buyer  and  Seller.  The  Deposit  and  all  interest  accrued  on  the  Deposit
(collectively, the "Escrowed Amount") shall be maintained by the Escrow Agent in
such  account  or  accounts  until the  Escrow  Agent is  required  to cause the
Escrowed  Amount to be disbursed  pursuant to the terms and  conditions  of this
Agreement and the Earnest Money Escrow  Instructions  attached hereto as Exhibit
D. The Escrowed  Amount  shall be applied to the  Purchase  Price if the Closing
occurs, as provided in Section 3.3 below.

      3.3 Purchase Price. The Purchase Price,  subject to adjustment as provided
herein,  shall be as  specified  in  Article  1 above  and  shall be paid on the
Closing Date (as hereinafter  defined) in United States dollars by wire transfer
of federal funds, less the Escrowed Amount and the Payment (the "Cash Balance").

      3.4 Tax Proration.  All due and payable real estate taxes, all general and
special  assessments on the Land and ad valorem  taxes,  if any, on the Personal
Property  (based on the most recent  ascertainable  taxes)  attributable  to the
Property  through the  Closing  Date shall be  prorated  and  adjusted as of the
Closing Date. In no event shall Seller be charged with or be responsible for any
increase in the taxes on the Property resulting from the sale of the Property or
from any improvements  made or leases entered into on or after the Closing Date.
If the tax  statements  for the fiscal year during which the Closing Date occurs
are not  finally  determined,  then the tax figures  for the  immediately  prior
fiscal  year shall be used for the  purposes of  prorating  taxes on the Closing
Date,  provided  that there shall be no further  adjustment to be made after the
Closing  Date.  Neither  Seller  nor Buyer  shall  settle  any tax  protests  or
proceedings  in which  taxes for the tax  period  for  which the other  party is
responsible  are being  adjudicated  without the  consent of such  party,  which
consent shall not be unreasonably  withheld,  conditioned or delayed.  After the
Closing,  Buyer  shall  be  responsible  for and  control  any tax  protests  or
proceedings  for any period for which  taxes are  adjusted  between  the parties
under this Agreement and for any later period.  Buyer and Seller shall cooperate
in pursuit of any such  proceedings and in responding to reasonable  requests of
the other for  information  concerning  the status of and otherwise  relating to
such proceedings;  provided,  however,  that neither party shall be obligated to
incur any out-of-pocket fees, costs or expenses in responding to the requests of
the other.

      3.5  Contract  Proration.   To  the  extent  Property  Contracts  are  not
terminated  pursuant  to  Section  4.3,  prepaid or past due  amounts  under any
Property  Contracts which are assigned to Buyer at Closing shall be prorated and
adjusted as of the Closing Date.

      3.6 Utility Proration. To the extent reasonably feasible, the Seller shall
cause all meters for  electricity,  gas,  water,  sewer or other public  utility
usage at the Property to be read as of the day immediately preceding the Closing
Date, and the Seller shall pay all charges for such utilities which have accrued
on or prior to the Closing Date;  provided,  however,  that if and to the extent
such charges are paid  directly by tenants,  no such reading or payment shall be
required. If the utility companies are unable or refuse to read meters for which
payment by the Seller is required,  all charges for such utilities to the extent
unpaid  shall be prorated  and adjusted as of the Closing Date based on the most
recent bills therefor and no further  adjustment shall be made. The Seller shall
provide  notice to the Buyer  within five (5) days of the Closing  Date  setting
forth (i) whether  utility meters will be read as of the Closing Date and (ii) a
copy of the most recent bill for any  utility  charges  which are to be prorated
and adjusted as of the Closing Date.

      3.7 Income and Expense Proration. Collected rents for the then current and
any  future  period,  Tenant  Deposits  and all  expenses  and other  charges in
connection  with the operation of the Property shall be apportioned and shall be
adjusted  as of the Closing  Date,  and the net amount  thereof,  if in favor of
Seller,  shall be added to the Purchase Price, or if in favor of Buyer, shall be
deducted from the Purchase  Price.  From and after  Closing all Tenant  Deposits
shall be credited to Buyer and shall  thereafter be deemed  transferred to Buyer
and Buyer  shall  assume and be solely  responsible  for the  payments of Tenant
Deposits to tenants in accordance  with the Leases and  applicable  law.  Seller
shall  transfer to Buyer and receive a credit for any utility  deposits  and any
deposits for third parties under any of the Property  Contracts.  In addition to
the foregoing, at Closing the Purchase Price shall be increased by the amount of
uncollected or past due rent;  provided,  however,  that no adjustment  shall be
made for rent  which  is more  than one (1)  month  past  due.  Seller  shall be
entitled to attempt to collect all rents and other  charges  which are more than
one (1) month past due but shall not be entitled to pursue eviction  proceedings
in connection with such collection efforts.
<PAGE>
      3.8 Prorations Generally.  A statement of prorations and other adjustments
shall be prepared by Seller in conformity  with the provisions of this Article 3
and  submitted  to Buyer for review and  approval not less than two (2) business
days prior to the Closing Date. For purposes of making  prorations,  Buyer shall
be deemed to be in title to the  Property  and  entitled  to the income from and
responsible for the expenses thereof, on the Closing Date.

      policy premium, and (vi) all costs allocable to preparation of the survey.

      4.1  Leases.  A rent  roll  (the  "Rent  Roll")  containing  a list of all
occupants  of the  Property  pursuant  to the  Leases  as of the date  hereof is

prior  written  consent  to any  Leases  that  provide  for a term in  excess of
thirteen  (13) months,  which  consent  Buyer  agrees shall not be  unreasonably
withheld,  and Buyer's consent shall be deemed to have been granted if Buyer has
not  responded  within five (5) Business  Days  following  the  submission  of a
proposed Lease to Buyer for approval.

      4.2  Conduct of  Business.  At all times prior to  Closing,  Seller  shall

written  notice to Seller of the Property  Contracts  that Buyer desires to have
terminated  by Seller,  and Seller will  terminate  the  Property  Contracts  so
identified at or before  Closing,  provided that such Property  Contracts may be
terminated without cost or liability to Seller and if there is cost or liability
to Seller, Buyer shall be responsible for any such liability,  and provided that
Seller  may  not  require   termination  of  any  property  contract  designated
non-terminable  on Exhibit C. At Closing,  Seller  shall  assign and Buyer shall

period from and after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing,  Seller's
existing  management  contract for the Property  shall be  terminated  by Seller

      5.1 Access/Purchaser's Responsibilities/Purchaser's Indemnity.

            (a) From the date hereof  through the  Diligence  Date  (hereinafter
      defined),   Seller  agrees  that  Buyer  and  its  authorized   agents  or
      representatives  shall be entitled to enter upon the Real Property  during
      normal  business hours upon advance written notice to Seller and make such
      reasonable,  nondestructive  investigations,  studies and tests including,
      without  limitation,  surveys  and  engineering  studies  as  Buyer  deems
      necessary  or  advisable,  provided,  however,  that  Buyer  shall  not be
      permitted to conduct  physical  testing  without  Seller's  prior  written
      consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,  conditioned or
      delayed.  Seller's  prior  written  consent for  physical  inspections  or
      testing may be conditioned  upon receipt of a detailed  description of the
      proposed physical inspection or testing, a list of contractors who will be
      performing  the  physical  inspection  or testing,  evidence of  insurance
      satisfactory to Seller,  and such other  information as Seller  reasonably
      requires in connection  with such proposed  inspection or testing.  Seller
      also  agrees  to make all  Documents  not  previously  delivered  to Buyer
      available to Buyer or Buyer's  agents  during  normal  business  hours for
      review and  copying at Buyer's  expense  upon  advance  written  notice to
      Seller from the date hereof through the Diligence Date.

            (b) Buyer agrees that in conducting any inspections,  investigations
      or tests of the Property  and/or the  Documents,  Buyer and its agents and
      representatives  shall (i) not  unreasonably  interfere with the operation
      and maintenance of the Property, (ii) not unreasonably disturb the tenants
      under the Leases or unreasonably  interfere with their use of the Property
      pursuant  to their  respective  Leases,  (iii) not  damage any part of the
      Property  or any  personal  property  owned or held by any tenant or third
      party,  (iv) not injure or  otherwise  cause  bodily  harm to Seller,  the
      property  manager,   or  their  respective   guests,   agents,   invitees,
      contractors  and employees or any tenant or their guests or invitees,  (v)
      maintain  comprehensive  general liability  insurance in terms and amounts
      reasonably   acceptable  to  Seller  covering  any  accident   arising  in
      connection with the presence of Buyer, its agents and  representatives  on
      the  Property,  and deliver a  certificate  of  insurance  verifying  such
      coverage to Seller  prior to entry upon the  Property;  (vi)  promptly pay
      when due the costs of all tests, investigations and examinations done with
      regard to the  Property;  (vii) not permit any liens to attach to the Real
      Property by reason of the  exercise of Buyer's  rights  hereunder,  (viii)
      fully  restore the  Property to the  condition in which the same was found
      before any such inspection or tests were  undertaken;  and (ix) not reveal
      or disclose  any  information  obtained  during the due  diligence  period
      concerning  the  Property  and the  Documents  to anyone  outside  Buyer's
      organization,  except in accordance with the confidentiality standards set
      forth in Section 5.5 herein.

            (c) Buyer will indemnify,  defend,  and hold Seller and its partners
      and Seller's  property  manager  harmless from all losses,  costs,  liens,
      claims, causes of action,  liability,  damages and out-of pocket expenses,
      including,  without limitation,  reasonable  attorneys' fees incurred as a
      result of the entry upon or inspections,  tests or  investigations  of the
      Property conducted by or on behalf of Buyer. This indemnity  obligation of
      Buyer shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason.

            (d) Buyer  acknowledges  and agrees  that the  Documents  including,
      without  limitation,  the  documents  listed  in  paragraph  (e) below are
      provided to Buyer for  informational  purposes only and do not  constitute
      representations  or  warranties  of Seller or its  partners  and  Seller's
      agents, employees or representatives of any kind as to the truth, accuracy
      or completeness of the Documents or the source(s) thereof.  Seller has not
      undertaken  any  independent  investigation  as to the truth,  accuracy or
      completeness of the Documents, and is providing the Documents solely as an
      accommodation to Buyer.

      documents,  Buyer hereby  acknowledges and agrees that it waives its right
      to terminate this  Agreement  pursuant to Section 5.2 below for any reason
      pertaining  to  or  in  connection  with  information   contained  in  the

shall  reveal any matters  which are not  acceptable  to Buyer,  in Buyer's sole
discretion,  Buyer may elect, by written notice to Seller, received by Seller on
or before the Diligence Date, not to proceed with this purchase,  in which event
this  Agreement  shall  terminate,  the Escrow  Agent shall  return the Escrowed
Amount to the Buyer and this Agreement  shall be null and void without  recourse
to either party hereto (except to the extent such recourse  arises in connection
with a provision of this  Agreement  which is intended to survive  termination).

      prepared by Buyer or its agents, representatives or employees.

            (c) The return of the Escrowed  Amount to Buyer under this Agreement

      efforts to promptly comply with the requirements of Section 5.3(b).

all Deposits, and shall contain appropriate instructions relating to the payment
of future rentals,  the giving of future notices,  and other matters  reasonably

                                    ARTICLE 8

                            CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION

      8.1 Casualty.  If any portion of the Improvements suffers damage in excess
of $1,000,000 from fire or any other casualty and are not substantially restored
to the condition  immediately  prior to such  casualty  before the Closing Date,
Buyer shall have the following elections:

            (a)   to purchase the Property in its then condition and pay the
      Purchase Price; or

            (b) to terminate  this  Agreement by giving notice of termination to
      Seller  on or  before  that  date  which is  thirty  (30)  days  after the
      occurrence of the fire or other casualty or on the Closing Date, whichever
      occurs  first,  in which event the Escrow  Agent shall return the Escrowed
      Amount to Buyer,  this  Agreement  shall  terminate and neither Seller nor
      Buyer shall have any recourse against the other (except to the extent such
      recourse  arises in connection with a provision of this Agreement which is
      intended to survive termination).

      If Buyer purchases the Property,  Seller shall pay over or assign to Buyer
as the case may be, on the Closing Date,  amounts  recovered or  recoverable  by
Seller on account of any insurance as a result of casualty after the date hereof
up to the amount of the Purchase Price, less any amounts reasonably  expended by
Seller  for  partial   restoration   and  proceeds  of  rental  loss   insurance
attributable to the period prior to Closing.

      8.2  Condemnation.  If  any  substantial  portion  of or  interest  in the
Property (for purposes of this Section 8.2,  "substantial portion of or interest
in the Property" shall include any  condemnation of access to the Property or of
parking  spaces at the  Property)  shall be taken or is in the  process of being
taken  by  exercise  of the  power  of  eminent  domain  or if any  governmental
authority  notifies  Seller  prior to the Closing  Date of its intent to take or
acquire a substantial  portion of or interest in the Property  (each an "Eminent
Domain  Taking"),  Seller shall give notice  promptly to Buyer of such event and
Buyer shall have the option to terminate this  Agreement by providing  notice to
Seller to such effect on or before the date which is ten (10) days from Seller's
notice to Buyer of such Eminent Domain Taking or on the Closing Date,  whichever
occurs first,  in which event the Escrow Agent shall return the Escrowed  Amount
to Buyer,  this Agreement  shall  terminate,  and neither Seller nor Buyer shall
have any recourse  against the other (except to the extent such recourse  arises
in connection  with a provision of this  Agreement  which is intended to survive
termination).  If  Buyer  does not  timely  notify  Seller  of its  election  to
terminate this Agreement, Buyer shall purchase the Property and pay the Purchase
Price,  and  Seller  shall pay over or assign to Buyer on  delivery  of the deed
awards  recovered or  recoverable  by Seller on account of such  Eminent  Domain
Taking up to the  amount of the  Purchase  Price,  less any  amounts  reasonably
expended by Seller in obtaining such award.

                                    ARTICLE 9

                              BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS

      Seller and Buyer each  mutually  represent  and  warrant to the other that
they have not dealt with,  and are not obligated to pay, any fees or commissions
to any broker in connection with the transaction  contemplated by this Agreement
other than CB Commercial Real Estate Group,  Inc. (the "Broker").  Seller agrees
to pay all  commissions,  payments  and fees due to the  Broker at the  Closing.
Buyer agrees to indemnify,  defend and hold Seller harmless from and against all
loss, liabilities,  costs, damages and expenses (including reasonable attorneys'
fees) arising from any claims for  brokerage or finder's  fees,  commissions  or
other similar fees in connection with the transaction  covered by this Agreement
insofar as such claims shall be based upon alleged  arrangements  or  agreements
made by Buyer or on Buyer's  behalf.  Seller hereby agrees to indemnify,  defend
and hold Buyer harmless from and against all loss,  liabilities,  costs, damages
and expenses (including  reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from any claims for
brokerage or finders'  fees,  commissions  or other similar fees,  including any
claim made by the Broker,  in connection  with the  transaction  covered by this
Agreement as such claims shall be based upon alleged  arrangements or agreements
made by Seller or on Seller's behalf. The covenants and agreements  contained in
this Article shall survive the  termination  of this Agreement or the Closing of
the transaction contemplated hereunder.

                                   ARTICLE 10

                        DEFAULT, TERMINATION AND REMEDIES

      10.1 Seller's Default. In the event that Seller defaults in its obligation
to close  hereunder,  Buyer  shall have the right to either (a)  terminate  this
Agreement  and receive the  Escrowed  Amount,  whereupon  this  Agreement  shall
terminate  without further recourse or (b) sue for specific  performance of this
Agreement in accordance with its terms. Buyer hereby waives and relinquishes any
right to sue Seller for any reason whatsoever,  and agrees that Seller shall not
be liable to Buyer for any actual, punitive, speculative, consequential or other
damages  for breach by Seller  prior to the  Closing,  except for payment of the
Escrowed  Amount.  IN NO EVENT SHALL  SELLER,  ITS DIRECT OR INDIRECT  PARTNERS,
SHAREHOLDERS,  OWNERS OR AFFILIATES, ANY OFFICER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF
THE  FOREGOING,  OR ANY  AFFILIATE  OR  CONTROLLING  PERSON  THEREOF,  HAVE  ANY
LIABILITY BEYOND ITS INTEREST IN THE PROPERTY FOR ANY CLAIM,  CAUSE OF ACTION OR
OTHER  LIABILITY  ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS  AGREEMENT OR THE PROPERTY,
WHETHER BASED ON COMMON LAW, CONTRACT, STATUTE, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE.

      10.2  Buyer's  Default.  In the event that Buyer  shall have failed in any
material  respect adverse to Seller as of the Closing Date to have performed any
of the  covenants and  agreements  contained in this  Agreement  which are to be
performed by Buyer on or before the Closing Date,  and if Buyer  defaults in its
obligation to close hereunder,  Seller shall be entitled to receive the Escrowed
Amount as liquidated  damages, in lieu of all other remedies available to Seller
at law or in equity for such  default,  and the Escrow  Agent shall  release the
Escrowed Amount to Seller.  Seller and Buyer agree that the damages resulting to
Seller as a result of such default by Buyer as of the date of this Agreement are
difficult or impossible to ascertain and the liquidated damages set forth in the
preceding sentence  constitute Buyer's and Seller's  reasonable estimate of such
damages.  Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  in the event of Buyer's  default or a
termination of this Agreement,  Seller shall have all remedies  available at law
or in equity in the event Buyer or any party related to or affiliated with Buyer
asserts  any  claims or rights to the  Property  that would  otherwise  delay or
prevent  Seller from having  clear,  indefeasible  and  marketable  title to the
Property.

                   REMAINDER OF PAGE LEFT INTENTIONALLY BLANK

            (a) Buyer is a California  corporation,  duly  organized and in good

      Balance  and  performing  the other  covenants  of Buyer set forth in this
      Agreement.

            (b) Neither the  execution nor the delivery of this  Agreement,  nor
      the consummation of the purchase and sale transaction contemplated hereby,
      nor the fulfillment of or compliance with the terms and conditions of this
      Agreement  conflict with or will result in the breach of any of the terms,
      conditions  or provisions of any agreement or instrument to which Buyer is
      a party or by which Buyer or any of Buyer's assets is bound;

            (c)   Buyer is not in any way affiliated with Seller;

            (d) No approval, consent, order or authorization of, or designation,
      registration or declaration  with, any of the United States,  the State of
      California,  any department,  board, agency,  office,  commission or other
      subdivisions  thereof,  or any  official  thereof  or any  third  party is
      required in  connection  with the valid  execution  and  delivery  of, and
      performance of the covenants of, this Agreement by Buyer.

            (e) There are no actions,  suits or  proceedings  pending or, to the
      knowledge  of Buyer,  threatened,  against or affecting  Buyer  which,  if
      determined  adversely  to Buyer,  would  adversely  affect its  ability to
      perform its obligations hereunder.

      As a condition  precedent to Seller's obligation to close the purchase and
sale transaction  contemplated in this Agreement,  Buyer's  representations  and
warranties  contained  herein  must  remain  and be true and  correct  as of the
Closing Date. Prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall notify Seller in writing of
any facts,  conditions or circumstances  which render any of the representations
and warranties set forth in this Section 11.1 in any way inaccurate, incomplete,
incorrect or misleading.

      11.2  Seller's  Representations  and  Warranties.   Seller  is  a  limited
partnership existing under the laws of the State of Texas.

            (a) Seller has full partnership power and authority and has received
      all  necessary  authorizations  from  its  partners  to  enter  into  this
      Agreement,  to perform  each of the  covenants on its part to be performed
      hereunder and to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under
      all documents required to be executed and delivered by it pursuant to this
      Agreement.

            (b) Seller has directed its manager to deliver or to make  available
      to Buyer (i) complete copies of all Leases and (ii) the Rent Roll.

            (c) Seller has directed its manager to deliver or to make  available
      to Buyer copies of all Property Contracts.

            (d) Seller has not been served with notice of any actions, suits, or
      proceedings  against or affecting  the Seller or the Property  that either
      (i)  are not  covered  by  applicable  insurance  or  (ii)  if  determined
      adversely to Seller would materially  affect the ownership or operation of
      the  Property or Seller's  ability to perform its  obligations  under this
      Agreement.

      Seller  reserves the right to update the  representations  and  warranties
made by it herein.  All of  Seller's  representations  and  warranties  shall be
deemed to be updated by  information  disclosed  to or obtained by  Purchaser in
connection with its due diligence investigations.

      11.3 Seller;  Seller's  Knowledge.  Whenever a  representation  is made to
"Seller's  knowledge",  or a term  of  similar  import,  the  accuracy  of  such
representation  shall be based solely on the actual knowledge of Richard Coomber
and  Clifford   Breining,   without   independent   investigation   or  inquiry.
Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  if, prior to the Closing,  Buyer obtains actual
knowledge that any  representation or warranty of Seller is inaccurate and Buyer
nonetheless  proceeds  with the Closing,  Seller shall have no liability for any
such matter regarding which Buyer had actual knowledge prior to Closing.

ASSUME THE RISK THAT ADVERSE  MATTERS,  INCLUDING,  BUT NOT LIMITED TO,  ADVERSE
PHYSICAL AND  ENVIRONMENTAL  CONDITIONS,  MAY NOT HAVE BEEN  REVEALED BY BUYER'S
INSPECTIONS AND INVESTIGATIONS. BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT UPON CLOSING,

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

      12.1 Successors and Assigns.  Without the prior written consent of Seller,
Buyer shall not,  directly or  indirectly,  assign this  Agreement or any of its
rights  hereunder.  Any attempted  assignment in violation  hereof shall, at the
election  of Seller in its sole  discretion,  be of no force or effect and shall
constitute a default by Buyer.  Notwithstanding  the foregoing and so long as it
will not affect the Lender's  consent to or the timing of the Closing  Buyer may
elect to have a nominee  Sherman  Oaks  Country  Club  Apartments,  a California
limited  partnership  ("Sherman Oaks"), or an affiliated entity controlled by or
under common  control with Sherman Oaks,  and Buyer shall give written notice of
such nominee to Seller,  together with any  reasonable  evidence of  affiliation
requested  by  Seller,  a minimum  of fifteen  (15) days  prior to  Closing.  No
designation  of a  nominee  to  receive  title  shall  release  Buyer  from  its
obligations under this Agreement.

      12.2 Notices. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, any notice
required or permitted to be delivered  under this Agreement  shall be in writing
and shall be deemed  given (i) when  delivered or refused if sent by hand during
regular  business  hours,  (ii) three (3) days after being sent by United States
Postal Service,  registered or certified mail,  postage prepaid,  return receipt
requested,  (iii) on the next  business  day when sent by a reputable  overnight
express mail service  that  provides  tracing and proof of receipt or refusal of
items mailed,  addressed to Seller or Buyer,  as the case may be, at the address
or  addresses  set  forth  below or such  other  addresses  as the  parties  may
designate in a notice  similarly sent, or (iv) on the day of receipt if such day
is a business day when sent by a facsimile,  otherwise on the next  business day
after  receipt,  as evidenced by a facsimile  confirmation  receipt.  Any notice
given by a party to  Escrow  Agent  shall be  simultaneously  given to the other
party.  Any  notice  given  by a  party  to  the  other  party  relating  to its
entitlement to the Escrowed Amount shall be  simultaneously  given to the Escrow
Agent.

held and construed to include any other gender,  and words of a singular  number
shall be held to include the plural and vice versa,  unless the context requires

Agreement are for convenience  only and shall not be deemed to extend,  limit or
otherwise define or construe the meaning of the language of this Agreement.

      12.5 No Other Parties.  Nothing in this Agreement,  express or implied, is
intended  to confer upon any  person,  other than the  parties  hereto and their
respective  successors and assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of
this Agreement;  provided that persons named as the beneficiary of any waiver or
indemnity in this Agreement are third-party  beneficiaries  under this Agreement
as to such  provisions and may enforce such provisions as if they are parties to
this Agreement.

      12.6  Amendments.  This  Agreement  may  be  amended  only  by  a  written
instrument executed by Seller and Buyer (or Buyer's assignee or transferee).

      12.7  Severability.  If any provision of this  Agreement or application to
any  party  or  circumstance  shall be  determined  by any  court  of  competent
jurisdiction  to be invalid and  unenforceable  to any extent,  the remainder of
this  Agreement  or  the  application  of  such  provision  to  such  person  or
circumstances,  other  than  those as to which it is so  determined  invalid  or
unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each provision hereof shall be
valid and shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

      12.8  Applicable  Law.  This  Agreement  shall be  construed  under and in
accordance with the laws of state in which the Property is located.

      12.9  Counterparts.  This  Agreement  may be  executed  in two (2) or more
counterparts,  each of which shall be an original but such counterparts together
shall constitute one and the same instrument notwithstanding that both Buyer and
Seller are not signatory to the same counterpart.

      12.10 Time of the Essence. Time is expressly declared to be of the essence
of this Agreement,  provided, however that in the event any date hereunder falls
on a Saturday,  Sunday or legal holiday,  the date applicable  shall be the next
business day.

      12.11 No Personal Liability.  The obligations of Seller hereunder shall be
binding only on the Property and neither Buyer nor anyone  claiming by,  through
or under  Buyer shall be entitled  to obtain any  judgment  extending  liability
beyond the Property or creating  personal  liability on the part of the partners
of the Seller or of the officers, directors, shareholders, advisors or agents of
Seller or Seller's partners or any of their  successors.  Under no circumstances
is any person  other than  Seller  liable for  Seller's  obligations  under this
Agreement or in respect of the transaction  contemplated by this Agreement,  and
Buyer hereby waives any right that it otherwise might have to pursue any partner
of Seller, any other person who might be liable for Seller's obligations because
of the  direct  or  indirect  ownership  interest  in  Seller,  or any  officer,
director, agent, advisor or affiliate of any such partner or other person.

      12.12 No Recordation.  Without the prior written consent of Seller,  there
shall be no recordation of either this  Agreement or any memorandum  hereof,  or
any affidavit  pertaining  hereto, and any such recordation of this Agreement or
memorandum hereto by Purchaser without the prior written consent of Seller shall
constitute a default hereunder by Buyer,  whereupon this Agreement shall, at the
option  of  Seller,  terminate  and be of no  further  force  and  effect.  Upon
termination,  the  Escrowed  Amount  shall be  immediately  delivered to Seller,
whereupon the parties shall have no further duties or obligations to one another
except as otherwise specifically provided herein.

      12.13 Waiver.  The excuse or waiver of the  performance  by a party of any
obligation  of the other party under this  Agreement  shall only be effective if
evidenced by a written statement signed by the party so excusing or waiving.  No
delay in exercising any right or remedy shall  constitute a waiver thereof,  and
no waiver by Seller or Buyer of the  breach of any  covenant  of this  Agreement
shall be construed as a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same
or any other covenant or condition of this Agreement.

      12.14 Binding On Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement  shall be binding
upon and  inure to the  benefit  of the  parties  hereto  and  their  respective
successors and assigns.

      12.15 Entire  Agreement.  This Agreement  constitutes the entire agreement
between the parties hereto with respect to the transactions contemplated herein,
and it supersedes all prior  discussions,  understandings or agreements  between
the  parties.  All  Exhibits and  Schedules  attached  hereto are a part of this
Agreement and are incorporated herein by reference.

      12.16  Construction  of Agreement.  This Agreement  shall not be construed
more  strictly  against one party than against the other merely by virtue of the
fact that it may have been prepared primarily by counsel for one of the parties,
it being  recognized that both Buyer and Seller have  contributed  substantially
and materially to the preparation of this Agreement.

      12.17 Further  Instruments.  Each party,  promptly upon the request of the
other,  shall  execute and have  acknowledged  and  delivered to the other or to
Escrow Agent, as may be appropriate,  any and all further instruments reasonably
requested or  appropriate  to evidence or give effect to the  provisions of this
Agreement and which are consistent with the provisions of this Agreement.

      12.18 Buyer  Represented by Counsel.  Buyer hereby represents and warrants
to Seller that (i) Buyer is not in a significantly disparate bargaining position
in relation to Seller,  (ii) Buyer is represented by legal counsel in connection
with the transaction  contemplated by this Agreement,  and (iii) Buyer is buying
the Property for business,  commercial,  investment or other similar purpose and
not for use as Buyer's residence.

      12.19 Preparation of Documents. All of the documents to be executed at the
Closing shall be in the form prepared to the reasonable satisfaction of Seller's
and Buyer's  counsel and  delivered to Buyer on or before five (5) business days
prior to the Closing  Date,  provided  that the failure to timely  deliver  such
documents shall not constitute a default by Seller hereunder.

      12.20  Like-Kind  Exchange.  Buyer  may  consummate  the  purchase  of the
Property as part of a so-called like kind exchange (the "Exchange")  pursuant to
PP1031 of the Internal  Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"),  provided
that: (i) the Closing shall not be delayed or affected by reason of the Exchange
nor shall the  consummation  or  accomplishment  of the  Exchange be a condition
precedent or condition  subsequent to Buyer's  obligations under this Agreement;
(ii) Buyer shall effect the Exchange through an assignment of this Agreement, or
its  rights  but  not its  obligations  under  this  Agreement,  to a  qualified
intermediary;  (iii) Seller shall not be required to take an  assignment  of the
purchase  agreement for the  relinquished  property or be required to acquire or
hold title to any real property for purposes of consummating the Exchange;  (iv)
Buyer shall pay any and all additional  costs that would not otherwise have been
incurred by Buyer or Seller had Buyer not consummated  its purchase  through the
Exchange;  (v) all  documents  to be executed by Seller in  connection  with the
Exchange  shall be submitted to Seller at least five (5) business  days prior to
Closing and shall be subject to Seller's  reasonable  approval,  and (vi) Seller
shall incur no liability  whatsoever in  connection  with the Exchange and Buyer
agrees to  indemnify,  defend  and save  Seller  harmless  from any and all such
liability.  Seller shall not by this agreement or  acquiescence  to the Exchange
(1) have its rights under this Agreement against Buyer affected or diminished in
any  manner  or (2) be  responsible  for  compliance  with or be  deemed to have
warranted to Buyer that the Exchange in fact complies with ?1031 of the Code.

      Re:   The Chandler's Reach Apartments, Redmond, Washington

Dear Mr. Cheatum:

      Reference is hereby made to that certain  Purchase and Sale Agreement (the
"Agreement"),  dated as of July 10, 1998, by and between Lake Sammamish  Limited
Partnership (the "Seller") and R&B Westside, Inc. (the "Buyer"). All capitalized
terms not otherwise  defined herein shall have the meanings  ascribed to them in
the Agreement.

      Buyer and Seller  hereby  agree  that for  purposes  of all due  diligence
investigations  other than review of the Survey and the Title  Commitment  (with
respect  only  matters  relating to the Survey)  ("Survey  Related  Review") the
Diligence  Date is August 10, 1998.  Buyer hereby  waives its right to terminate
the  Agreement  in  accordance  with  Section 5.2 for any reason  other than its
Survey Related Review.

      Buyer has not yet  received an updated  Survey.  Seller  acknowledges  and
agrees that Buyer shall have until August 17, 1998 (the "Survey Extension Date")
to complete its Survey Related Review.  Buyer shall submit all Title  Objections
(limited  to matters  uncovered  in its Survey  Related  Review) to Seller on or
prior to 5:00 p.m. on the Survey Extension Date, and Seller shall have until ten
(10) days following the Survey Extension Date (the "Title Objection Reply Date")
to give Buyer written notice identifying any such Title Objections, if any, that
Seller agrees to use reasonable efforts to cure;  provided however,  that Seller
shall not be  obligated  to incur any costs or expenses in  connection  with any
such cure  undertaken by Seller.  If there are any such Title  Objections  which
Seller is unable or  unwilling to cure,  Buyer may  terminate  the  Agreement in
accordance  with  Section 5.2 of the  Agreement by written  notice  submitted to
Seller  not later than 5:00 p.m.  within  three (3)  business  days of the Title
Objection  Reply Date or waive such  objections  which  Seller is not willing or
able to cure and proceed to Closing.

         In addition,  Seller and Buyer agree that Section 7.3 of the  Agreement
is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced in its entirety by the following:

      7.3 Closing  Date.  Subject to Sellers right to extend the Closing Date as
      provided  in  Section  7.1,  the  consummation  of the  purchase  and sale
      contemplated  in this Agreement (the  "Closing")  shall occur on September
      10,  1998 (the  "Closing  Date"),  at the  office of the  Escrow  Agent or
      through the escrow  closing  arrangements  set forth in the Form of Escrow
      Closing  Instructions  attached hereto as Exhibit F.  Notwithstanding  the
      foregoing,  Buyer  has  requested  and  Seller  has  granted  to  Buyer an
      extension of the Closing Date to September 17, 1998.  Buyer may extend the
      Closing Date to  September  24, 1998 upon not less than fifteen (15) days'
      prior  written  notice  to  Seller,  together  with  payment  to Seller of
      immediately  available funds in the amount of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars
      ($200,000),  which sum shall in no event be refundable to Buyer, but which
      sum shall be applied towards the Purchase Price payable to the Seller when
      the Closing  occurs.  Notwithstanding  anything in this  Agreement  to the
      contrary,  in no event  shall the closing  Date be later than  October 30,
      1998.

      Except as expressly  set forth herein,  all terms of the Agreement  remain
unmodified and in full force and effect.

      This letter agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of
which shall be an original but such  counterparts  shall  constitute one and the
same instrument  notwithstanding that both Buyer and Seller are not signatory to
the same  counterpart.  Buyer and Seller  acknowledge and agree that the parties
hereto  may rely upon  facsimile  signatures,  but shall  nevertheless  exchange
signed copies of this letter agreement promptly after its execution.

      Re:   The Chandler's Reach Apartments

Dear Mr. Cheatum:

      Reference is hereby made to that certain  Purchase and Sale Agreement (the
"Agreement"),  dated as of July 10, 1998, by and between Lake Sammamish  Limited
Partnership  (the  "Seller")  and  R&B  Westside,  Inc.  (the  "Buyer")  as such
Agreement is amended and affected by that  certain  Side Letter  Agreement  from
Seller to Buyer,  dated August 10, 1998.  All  capitalized  terms not  otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement.

      As of the date  hereof,  the  Escrowed  Amount  held by Escrow  Agent with
respect to the Property is Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars ($700,000).

      Buyer has requested  that the Closing Date be extended to October 1, 1998.
Seller has agreed to so extend the  Closing  Date on the  condition  that and in
consideration  for which,  Buyer hereby  authorizes  and directs Escrow Agent to
immediately  disburse  Three  Hundred Fifty  Thousand  Dollars  ($350,000)  (the
"Chandler's  Extension  Consideration") to Seller pursuant to the following wire
instructions:

      Bank:          Seafirst Bank
      ABA #:         xxxxxxxxxxxxx
      Account #:     xxxxxxxxxxxxx
      Account Name:  Chandler's Reach - West RS as Agent

      The Chandler's Extension  Consideration shall in no event be refundable to
Buyer,  but such sum shall be applied  towards the Purchase Price payable to the
Seller at the time of the Closing if, and only if, the Closing occurs.

      Time is  expressly  declared  to be of the  essence  with  respect  to the
Closing Date as extended as provided herein.  Notwithstanding  the provisions of
the  Agreement  or of  Paragraph  1 of the  Earnest  Money  Escrow  Instructions
attached as Exhibit D to the  Agreement  and  executed by each of the parties to
this Letter (the "Escrow Agreement"), Buyer expressly acknowledges that if Buyer
defaults in its  obligations  under the Agreement and the Closing does not occur

                                PURCHASE AND SALE

      2.1 Seller  hereby  agrees to sell and convey  the  Property  to Buyer and
Buyer hereby agrees to buy the Property  from Seller for the Purchase  Price and
otherwise subject to the covenants,  provisions,  terms and conditions contained
herein.

                                    ARTICLE 3

                      PURCHASE PRICE; DEPOSIT; ADJUSTMENTS

      3.1  Initial  Non-Refundable,  Non-Interest  Bearing  Payment  to  Seller.
Contemporaneously  with the execution and delivery of this  Agreement  (and as a
condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement), Buyer shall deliver
to  Seller,  as  independent   consideration,   a  non-refundable  payment  (the
"Payment") in the amount of One Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars  ($100,000),
which  amount  shall be deemed  earned upon the  execution  and delivery of this
Agreement  by Buyer and Seller.  The Payment  shall be retained by Seller in all
instances;  provided, however, that (i) if the Closing occurs, the amount of the
Payment  shall be  credited  towards  the  Purchase  Price,  and (ii) if  Seller
defaults in its obligations  hereunder,  the Payment shall be returned to Buyer,
without interest.
<PAGE>
      3.2 Deposit.  Contemporaneously  with the  execution  and delivery of this
Agreement (and as a condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement),
Buyer  shall  deposit  immediately   available  funds  with  the  Title  Company
(hereinafter  the  "Escrow  Agent")  the sum of Five  Hundred  Thousand  Dollars
($500,0000) (the "Deposit") to secure Buyer's  obligations under this Agreement.
The Escrow Agent shall hold the Deposit in a segregated  interest  bearing money
market  account  with an FDIC insured bank  reasonably  acceptable  to Buyer and
Seller. The Deposit and all interest accrued on the Deposit  (collectively,  the
"Escrowed  Amount")  shall be  maintained by the Escrow Agent in such account or
accounts  until the Escrow Agent is required to cause the Escrowed  Amount to be
disbursed pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Earnest
Money Escrow  Instructions  attached  hereto as Exhibit D. The  Escrowed  Amount
shall be applied to the  Purchase  Price if the Closing  occurs,  as provided in
Section 3.3 below.

      3.3 Purchase Price. The Purchase Price,  subject to adjustment as provided
herein,  shall be as  specified  in  Article  1 above  and  shall be paid on the
Closing Date (as hereinafter  defined) in United States dollars by wire transfer
of federal funds, less the Escrowed Amount and the Payment (the "Cash Balance").

      3.4 Tax Proration.  All due and payable real estate taxes, all general and
special  assessments on the Land and ad valorem  taxes,  if any, on the Personal
Property  (based on the most recent  ascertainable  taxes)  attributable  to the
Property  through the  Closing  Date shall be  prorated  and  adjusted as of the
Closing Date. In no event shall Seller be charged with or be responsible for any
increase in the taxes on the Property resulting from the sale of the Property or
from any improvements  made or leases entered into on or after the Closing Date.
If the tax  statements  for the fiscal year during which the Closing Date occurs
are not  finally  determined,  then the tax figures  for the  immediately  prior
fiscal  year shall be used for the  purposes of  prorating  taxes on the Closing
Date,  provided  that there shall be no further  adjustment to be made after the
Closing  Date.  Neither  Seller  nor Buyer  shall  settle  any tax  protests  or
proceedings  in which  taxes for the tax  period  for  which the other  party is
responsible  are being  adjudicated  without the  consent of such  party,  which
consent shall not be unreasonably  withheld,  conditioned or delayed.  After the
Closing,  Buyer  shall  be  responsible  for and  control  any tax  protests  or
proceedings  for any period for which  taxes are  adjusted  between  the parties
under this Agreement and for any later period.  Buyer and Seller shall cooperate
in pursuit of any such  proceedings and in responding to reasonable  requests of
the other for  information  concerning  the status of and otherwise  relating to
such proceedings;  provided,  however,  that neither party shall be obligated to
incur any out-of-pocket fees, costs or expenses in responding to the requests of
the other.

      3.5  Contract  Proration.   To  the  extent  Property  Contracts  are  not
terminated  pursuant  to  Section  4.3,  prepaid or past due  amounts  under any
Property  Contracts which are assigned to Buyer at Closing shall be prorated and
adjusted as of the Closing Date.

      3.6 Utility Proration. To the extent reasonably feasible, the Seller shall
cause all meters for  electricity,  gas,  water,  sewer or other public  utility
usage at the Property to be read as of the day immediately preceding the Closing
Date, and the Seller shall pay all charges for such utilities which have accrued
on or prior to the Closing Date;  provided,  however,  that if and to the extent
such charges are paid  directly by tenants,  no such reading or payment shall be
required. If the utility companies are unable or refuse to read meters for which
payment by the Seller is required,  all charges for such utilities to the extent
unpaid  shall be prorated  and adjusted as of the Closing Date based on the most
recent bills therefor and no further  adjustment shall be made. The Seller shall
provide  notice to the Buyer  within five (5) days of the Closing  Date  setting
forth (i) whether  utility meters will be read as of the Closing Date and (ii) a
copy of the most recent bill for any  utility  charges  which are to be prorated
and adjusted as of the Closing Date.

      3.7 Income and Expense Proration. Collected rents for the then current and
any future  period,  Tenant  Deposits,  and all  expenses  and other  charges in
connection  with the operation of the Property shall be apportioned and shall be
adjusted  as of the Closing  Date,  and the net amount  thereof,  if in favor of
Seller,  shall be added to the Purchase Price, or if in favor of Buyer, shall be
deducted from the Purchase  Price.  From and after  Closing all Tenant  Deposits
shall be credited to Buyer and shall  thereafter be deemed  transferred to Buyer
and Buyer  shall  assume and be solely  responsible  for the  payments of Tenant
Deposits to tenants in accordance  with the Leases and  applicable  law.  Seller
shall  transfer to Buyer and receive a credit for any utility  deposits  and any
deposits for third parties under any of the Property  Contracts.  In addition to
the foregoing, at Closing the Purchase Price shall be increased by the amount of
uncollected or past due rent;  provided,  however,  that no adjustment  shall be
made for rent  which  is more  than one (1)  month  past  due.  Seller  shall be
entitled to attempt to collect all rents and other  charges  which are more than
one (1) month past due but shall not be entitled to pursue eviction  proceedings
in connection with such collection efforts.
<PAGE>
      3.8 Prorations Generally.  A statement of prorations and other adjustments
shall be prepared by Seller in conformity  with the provisions of this Article 3
and  submitted  to Buyer for review and  approval not less than two (2) business
days prior to the Closing Date. For purposes of making  prorations,  Buyer shall
be deemed to be in title to the  Property  and  entitled  to the income from and
responsible for the expenses thereof, on the Closing Date.

      3.9   Closing Costs.

            (a) Seller shall pay: (i) its legal fees and expenses related to the
      negotiation and  preparation of this Agreement and all documents  required

      negotiation  of this  Agreement  and all  documents  required to close the
      transaction  contemplated  hereby,  (iv) all costs  related to the Buyer's
      inspection and due diligence,  including,  without limitation, the cost of
      appraisals, architectural,  engineering, credit and environmental reports,
      (v) all  costs  associated  with any ALTA  extended  portion  of any title
      policy  premiums,  and (vi) all  costs  allocable  to  preparation  of the
      survey.

            (c) All other closing  costs,  including,  without  limitation,  all
      state, county or other taxes associated with the transfer of the property,
      shall be paid by  Seller  or Buyer in  accordance  with the  custom in the
      jurisdiction where the Property is located.

                                    ARTICLE 4

                              PRECLOSING OPERATION

      4.1  Leases.  A rent  roll  (the  "Rent  Roll")  containing  a list of all
occupants  of the  Property  pursuant  to the  Leases  as of the date  hereof is
attached hereto as Exhibit E. During the pendency of this Agreement,  Seller may
enter into  Leases  with new tenants or  modifications  of Leases with  existing
tenants  substantially in accordance with Seller's  existing leasing  practices,
provided  that in all events any new or modified  Leases shall (i) be at or near
market  rent,  (ii) be for a term of not more than  thirteen  (13) months  (with
respect to residential  Leases only), and (iii) on the Seller's current standard
form of lease.  Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  Seller agrees to obtain Buyer's
prior  written  consent  to any  Leases  that  provide  for a term in  excess of
thirteen  (13) months,  which  consent  Buyer  agrees shall not be  unreasonably
withheld,  and Buyer's consent shall be deemed to have been granted if Buyer has
not  responded  within five (5) Business  Days  following  the  submission  of a
proposed Lease to Buyer for approval.

      4.2  Conduct of  Business.  At all times prior to  Closing,  Seller  shall
continue (a) to conduct business with respect to the Property in the same manner
in which said business has been heretofore conducted, (b) to insure the Property
substantially as currently insured, and (c) maintain the Property in its current
condition,  reasonable wear and tear and damage by casualty excepted,  including
ordinary  preparation  for  occupancy  of  residential  units  vacated  prior to
Closing.

      4.3 Property Contracts. Seller shall make copies of all Property Contracts
available for Buyer to review  promptly after the date hereof.  On or before the
Diligence Date (as defined below),  unless Buyer has provided  written notice to
Seller of Buyer's  election to terminate  this  Agreement,  Buyer shall  provide
written  notice to Seller of the Property  Contracts  that Buyer desires to have
terminated  by Seller,  and Seller will  terminate  the  Property  Contracts  so
identified at or before  Closing,  provided that such Property  Contracts may be
terminated without cost or liability to Seller and if there is cost or liability
to Seller,  Buyer shall be responsible  for any such liability and provided that
Seller  may  not  require   termination  of  any  property  contract  designated
non-terminable  on Exhibit C. At Closing,  Seller  shall  assign and Buyer shall
assume the Property Contracts,  except those Property Contracts which Seller has
agreed to terminate. Buyer shall indemnify,  defend and hold the Seller harmless
from and against any and all claims under the Property Contracts relating to the
period from and after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing,  Seller's
existing  management  contract for the Property  shall be  terminated  by Seller
effective as of the Closing Date.

            (a) From the date hereof  through the  Diligence  Date  (hereinafter
      defined),   Seller  agrees  that  Buyer  and  its  authorized   agents  or
      representatives  shall be entitled to enter upon the Real Property  during
      normal  business hours upon advance written notice to Seller and make such
      reasonable,  nondestructive  investigations,  studies and tests including,
      without  limitation,  surveys  and  engineering  studies  as  Buyer  deems
      necessary  or  advisable,  provided,  however,  that  Buyer  shall  not be
      permitted to conduct  physical  testing  without  Seller's  prior  written
      consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,  conditioned or
      delayed.  Seller's  prior  written  consent for  physical  inspections  or
      testing may be conditioned  upon receipt of a detailed  description of the
      proposed physical inspection or testing, a list of contractors who will be
      performing  the  physical  inspection  or testing,  evidence of  insurance
      satisfactory to Seller,  and such other  information as Seller  reasonably
      requires in connection  with such proposed  inspection or testing.  Seller
      also  agrees  to make all  Documents  not  previously  delivered  to Buyer
      available to Buyer or Buyer's  agents  during  normal  business  hours for
      review and  copying at Buyer's  expense  upon  advance  written  notice to
      Seller from the date hereof through the Diligence Date.

            (b) Buyer agrees that in conducting any inspections,  investigations

      under the Leases or unreasonably  interfere with their use of the Property
      pursuant  to their  respective  Leases,  (iii) not  damage any part of the
      Property  or any  personal  property  owned or held by any tenant or third
      party,  (iv) not injure or  otherwise  cause  bodily  harm to Seller,  the
      property  manager,   or  their  respective   guests,   agents,   invitees,
      contractors  and employees or any tenant or their guests or invitees,  (v)
      maintain  comprehensive  general liability  insurance in terms and amounts
      reasonably   acceptable  to  Seller  covering  any  accident   arising  in
      connection with the presence of Buyer, its agents and  representatives  on
      the  Property,  and deliver a  certificate  of  insurance  verifying  such
      coverage to Seller  prior to entry upon the  Property;  (vi)  promptly pay
      when due the costs of all tests, investigations and examinations done with
      regard to the  Property;  (vii) not permit any liens to attach to the Real
      Property by reason of the  exercise of Buyer's  rights  hereunder,  (viii)
      fully  restore the  Property to the  condition in which the same was found
      before any such inspection or tests were  undertaken;  and (ix) not reveal
      or disclose  any  information  obtained  during the due  diligence  period
      concerning  the  Property  and the  Documents  to anyone  outside  Buyer's
      organization,  except in accordance with the confidentiality standards set
      forth in Section 5.5 herein.

            (c) Buyer will indemnify,  defend,  and hold Seller and its partners
      and Seller's  property  manager  harmless from all losses,  costs,  liens,
      claims, causes of action,  liability,  damages and out-of pocket expenses,
      including,  without limitation,  reasonable  attorneys' fees incurred as a
      result of the entry upon or inspections,  tests or  investigations  of the
      Property conducted by or on behalf of Buyer. This indemnity  obligation of
      Buyer shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason.

            (d) Buyer  acknowledges  and agrees  that the  Documents  including,
      without  limitation,  the  documents  listed  in  paragraph  (e) below are
      provided to Buyer for  informational  purposes only and do not  constitute
      representations  or  warranties  of Seller or its  partners  and  Seller's
      agents, employees or representatives of any kind as to the truth, accuracy
      or completeness of the Documents or the source(s) thereof.  Seller has not
      undertaken  any  independent  investigation  as to the truth,  accuracy or
      completeness of the Documents, and is providing the Documents solely as an
      accommodation to Buyer.

            (e) Buyer acknowledges receipt and independent review and evaluation
      of the following Documents prior to the date hereof:

            Based upon its independent investigation and review of the foregoing
      documents,  Buyer hereby  acknowledges and agrees that it waives its right
      to terminate this  Agreement  pursuant to Section 5.2 below for any reason
      pertaining  to  or  in  connection  with  information   contained  in  the
      Assessment or the Phase I.

            (e) Subject to the provisions of Section 5.1 above,  conduct any and
      all other reviews and inspections that Buyer may desire.

      Buyer  shall  complete  its due  diligence  on or before the date which is
thirty (30) days from the date hereof (the  "Diligence  Date").  Notwithstanding
any  other  term  or  provision  herein  to the  contrary,  but  subject  to the
provisions  of Section  5.1(e)  above,  in the event that Buyer's due  diligence
shall  reveal any matters  which are not  acceptable  to Buyer,  in Buyer's sole
discretion,  Buyer may elect,  by written notice to Seller received by Seller on
or before the Diligence Date, not to proceed with this purchase,  in which event
this  Agreement  shall  terminate,  the Escrow  Agent shall  return the Escrowed
Amount to the Buyer and this Agreement  shall be null and void without  recourse
to either party hereto (except to the extent such recourse  arises in connection
with a provision of this  Agreement  which is intended to survive  termination).
BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT, PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, BUYER SHALL BE
AFFORDED A FULL  OPPORTUNITY  TO INSPECT  THE  PROPERTY,  OBSERVE  ITS  PHYSICAL
CHARACTERISTICS  AND EXISTING  CONDITIONS  AND CONDUCT SUCH  INVESTIGATIONS  AND

TERMINATES THIS AGREEMENT  PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 5.3 BUYER SHALL BE DEEMED TO
HAVE  WAIVED  ON THE  DILIGENCE  DATE ANY AND ALL  OBJECTIONS  TO OR  COMPLAINTS
REGARDING  (INCLUDING,  BUT NOT LIMITED TO,  FEDERAL,  STATE OR COMMON LAW BASED
ACTIONS AND ANY PRIVATE RIGHT OF ACTION UNDER STATE AND FEDERAL LAW TO WHICH THE
PROPERTY IS OR MAY BE SUBJECT,  INCLUDING  BUT NOT LIMITED TO,  CERCLA AND RCRA)
PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND EXISTING CONDITIONS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
STRUCTURAL AND GEOLOGIC  CONDITIONS,  SUBSURFACE  SOIL AND WATER  CONDITIONS AND

      efforts to promptly comply with the requirements of Section 5.3(b).

Documents are  proprietary  and  confidential in nature and will be delivered to

      8.1 Casualty.  If any portion of the Improvements suffers damage in excess
of $1,000,000 from fire or any other casualty and are not substantially restored

in the Property" shall include any  condemnation of access to the Property or of
parking  spaces at the  Property)  shall be taken or is in the  process of being
taken  by  exercise  of the  power  of  eminent  domain  or if any  governmental
authority  notifies  Seller  prior to the Closing  Date of its intent to take or
acquire a substantial  portion of or interest in the Property  (each an "Eminent
Domain  Taking"),  Seller shall give notice  promptly to Buyer of such event and
Buyer shall have the option to terminate this  Agreement by providing  notice to
Seller to such effect on or before the date which is ten (10) days from Seller's
notice to Buyer of such Eminent Domain Taking or on the Closing Date,  whichever
occurs first,  in which event the Escrow Agent shall return the Escrowed  Amount
to Buyer,  this Agreement  shall  terminate,  and neither Seller nor Buyer shall
have any recourse  against the other (except to the extent such recourse  arises
in connection  with a provision of this  Agreement  which is intended to survive
termination).  If  Buyer  does not  timely  notify  Seller  of its  election  to
terminate this Agreement, Buyer shall purchase the Property and pay the Purchase
Price,  and  Seller  shall pay over or assign to Buyer on  delivery  of the deed
awards  recovered or  recoverable  by Seller on account of such  Eminent  Domain
Taking up to the  amount of the  Purchase  Price,  less any  amounts  reasonably
expended by Seller in obtaining such award.


                                    ARTICLE 9

                              BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS

      Seller and Buyer each  mutually  represent  and  warrant to the other that
they have not dealt with,  and are not obligated to pay, any fees or commissions
to any broker in connection with the transaction  contemplated by this Agreement
other than Grubb & Ellis (the "Broker").  Seller agrees to pay all  commissions,
payments and fees due to the Broker at the Closing.  Buyer agrees to  indemnify,
defend and hold Seller harmless from and against all loss,  liabilities,  costs,
damages and expenses  (including  reasonable  attorneys'  fees) arising from any
claims for  brokerage or finder's  fees,  commissions  or other  similar fees in
connection with the transaction covered by this Agreement insofar as such claims
shall be based  upon  alleged  arrangements  or  agreements  made by Buyer or on
Buyer's  behalf.  Seller  hereby  agrees to  indemnify,  defend  and hold  Buyer
harmless  from and against all loss,  liabilities,  costs,  damages and expenses
(including  reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from any claims for brokerage or
finders' fees,  commissions  or other similar fees,  including any claim made by
the Broker, in connection with the transaction covered by this Agreement as such
claims shall be based upon alleged  arrangements or agreements made by Seller or
on Seller's behalf. The covenants and agreements contained in this Article shall
survive the  termination  of this  Agreement  or the Closing of the  transaction
contemplated hereunder.


                                   ARTICLE 10

                        DEFAULT, TERMINATION AND REMEDIES

      10.1 Seller's Default. In the event that Seller defaults in its obligation
to close  hereunder,  Buyer  shall have the right to either (a)  terminate  this
Agreement  and receive the  Escrowed  Amount,  whereupon  this  Agreement  shall
terminate  without further recourse or (b) sue for specific  performance of this
Agreement in accordance with its terms. Buyer hereby waives and relinquishes any
right to sue Seller for any reason whatsoever,  and agrees that Seller shall not
be liable to Buyer for any actual, punitive, speculative, consequential or other
damages  for breach by Seller  prior to the  Closing,  except for payment of the
Escrowed  Amount.  IN NO EVENT SHALL  SELLER,  ITS DIRECT OR INDIRECT  PARTNERS,
SHAREHOLDERS,  OWNERS OR AFFILIATES, ANY OFFICER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF
THE  FOREGOING,  OR ANY  AFFILIATE  OR  CONTROLLING  PERSON  THEREOF,  HAVE  ANY
LIABILITY BEYOND ITS INTEREST IN THE PROPERTY FOR ANY CLAIM,  CAUSE OF ACTION OR
OTHER  LIABILITY  ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS  AGREEMENT OR THE PROPERTY,
WHETHER BASED ON COMMON LAW, CONTRACT, STATUTE, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE.

      10.2  Buyer's  Default.  In the event that Buyer  shall have failed in any
material  respect adverse to Seller as of the Closing Date to have performed any
of the  covenants and  agreements  contained in this  Agreement  which are to be
performed by Buyer on or before the Closing Date,  and if Buyer  defaults in its
obligation to close hereunder,  Seller shall be entitled to receive the Escrowed
Amount as liquidated  damages, in lieu of all other remedies available to Seller
at law or in equity for such  default,  and the Escrow  Agent shall  release the
Escrowed Amount to Seller.  Seller and Buyer agree that the damages resulting to
Seller as a result of such default by Buyer as of the date of this Agreement are
difficult or impossible to ascertain and the liquidated damages set forth in the
preceding sentence  constitute Buyer's and Seller's  reasonable estimate of such
damages.  Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  in the event of Buyer's  default or a
termination of this Agreement,  Seller shall have all remedies  available at law
or in equity in the event Buyer or any party related to or affiliated with Buyer
asserts  any  claims or rights to the  Property  that would  otherwise  delay or
prevent  Seller from having  clear,  indefeasible  and  marketable  title to the
Property.

                         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES



                   REMAINDER OF PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK

      11.1 Buyer's Representations and Warranties. Buyer represents and warrants
to Seller that:

            (a) Buyer is a California  corporation,  duly  organized and in good
      standing  under the laws of the State of  California,  is  qualified to do
      business in the State of  California  and has the power and  authority  to
      enter into this Agreement and to execute and deliver this Agreement and to
      perform all duties and  obligations  imposed upon it hereunder.  As of the
      date of this  Agreement,  Buyer  has  obtained  all  necessary  corporate,
      partnership or other organizational  authorizations required in connection
      with the execution and delivery of this Agreement. Each of the individuals
      executing  this  Agreement on Buyer's behalf is authorized to do so. Buyer
      has the financial  ability to pay the Purchase Price by tendering the Cash
      Balance  and  performing  the other  covenants  of Buyer set forth in this
      Agreement.

            (b) Neither the  execution nor the delivery of this  Agreement,  nor
      the consummation of the purchase and sale transaction contemplated hereby,
      nor the fulfillment of or compliance with the terms and conditions of this
      Agreement  conflict with or will result in the breach of any of the terms,
      conditions  or provisions of any agreement or instrument to which Buyer is
      a party or by which Buyer or any of Buyer's assets is bound;

            (c)   Buyer is not in any way affiliated with Seller;

            (d) No approval, consent, order or authorization of, or designation,
      registration or declaration  with, any of the United States,  the State of
      California,  any department,  board, agency,  office,  commission or other
      subdivisions  thereof,  or any  official  thereof  or any  third  party is
      required in  connection  with the valid  execution  and  delivery  of, and
      performance of the covenants of, this Agreement by Buyer.

            (e) There are no actions,  suits or  proceedings  pending or, to the
      knowledge  of Buyer,  threatened,  against or affecting  Buyer  which,  if
      determined  adversely  to Buyer,  would  adversely  affect its  ability to
      perform its obligations hereunder.

      As a condition  precedent to Seller's obligation to close the purchase and
sale transaction  contemplated in this Agreement,  Buyer's  representations  and
warranties  contained  herein  must  remain  and be true and  correct  as of the
Closing Date. Prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall notify Seller in writing of
any facts,  conditions or circumstances  which render any of the representations
and warranties set forth in this Section 11.1 in any way inaccurate, incomplete,
incorrect or misleading.

      11.2  Seller's  Representations  and  Warranties.   Seller  is  a  general
partnership existing under the laws of the State of Texas.

            (a) Seller has full partnership power and authority and has received
      all  necessary  authorizations  from  its  partners  to  enter  into  this
      Agreement,  to perform  each of the  covenants on its part to be performed
      hereunder and to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under
      all documents required to be executed and delivered by it pursuant to this
      Agreement.

            (b) Seller has directed its manager to deliver or to make  available
      to Buyer (i) complete copies of all Leases and (ii) the Rent Roll.

            (c) Seller has directed its manager to deliver or to make  available
      copies of all Property Contracts.

            (d) Seller has not been served with notice of any actions, suits, or
      proceedings  against or affecting  the Seller or the Property  that either
      (i)  are not  covered  by  applicable  insurance  or  (ii)  if  determined
      adversely to Seller would materially  affect the ownership or operation of
      the  Property or Seller's  ability to perform its  obligations  under this
      Agreement.

      Seller  reserves the right to update the  representations  and  warranties
made by it herein.  All of  Seller's  representations  and  warranties  shall be
deemed to be updated by  information  disclosed  to or obtained by  Purchaser in
connection with its due diligence investigations.

      11.3 Seller;  Seller's  Knowledge.  Whenever a  representation  is made to
"Seller's  knowledge",  or a term  of  similar  import,  the  accuracy  of  such
representation  shall be based solely on the actual knowledge of Richard Coomber
and  Clifford   Breining,   without   independent   investigation   or  inquiry.
Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  if, prior to the Closing,  Buyer obtains actual
knowledge that any  representation or warranty of Seller is inaccurate and Buyer
nonetheless  proceeds  with the Closing,  Seller shall have no liability for any
such matter regarding which Buyer had actual knowledge prior to Closing.

      11.4 Property  Conveyed "AS IS". (a)  NOTWITHSTANDING  ANYTHING  CONTAINED
HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY,  IT IS UNDERSTOOD  AND AGREED THAT,  EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY
SET FORTH HEREIN, SELLER AND ITS PARTNERS AND SELLER'S PROPERTY MANAGER HAVE NOT
MADE  AND ARE  NOT  NOW  MAKING,  AND  THEY  SPECIFICALLY  DISCLAIM,  ANY  OTHER
WARRANTIES,  REPRESENTATIONS OR GUARANTIES OF ANY KIND OR CHARACTER,  EXPRESS OR

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

      12.1 Successors and Assigns.  Without the prior written consent of Seller,
Buyer shall not,  directly or  indirectly,  assign this  Agreement or any of its
rights  hereunder.  Any attempted  assignment in violation  hereof shall, at the
election  of Seller in its sole  discretion,  be of no force or effect and shall
constitute a default by Buyer.  Notwithstanding  the foregoing and so long as it
will not affect the Lender's  consent to or the timing of the Closing  Buyer may
elect to have a nominee  Sherman  Oaks  Country  Club  Apartments,  a California
limited  partnership  ("Sherman Oaks"), or an affiliated entity controlled by or
under common  control with Sherman Oaks,  and Buyer shall give written notice of
such nominee to Seller,  together with any  reasonable  evidence of  affiliation
requested  by  Seller,  a minimum  of fifteen  (15) days  prior to  Closing.  No
designation  of a  nominee  to  receive  title  shall  release  Buyer  from  its
obligations under this Agreement.

      12.2 Notices. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, any notice
required or permitted to be delivered  under this Agreement  shall be in writing
and shall be deemed  given (i) when  delivered or refused if sent by hand during
regular  business  hours,  (ii) three (3) days after being sent by United States
Postal Service,  registered or certified mail,  postage prepaid,  return receipt
requested,  (iii) on the next  business  day when sent by a reputable  overnight
express mail service  that  provides  tracing and proof of receipt or refusal of
items mailed,  addressed to Seller or Buyer,  as the case may be, at the address
or  addresses  set  forth  below or such  other  addresses  as the  parties  may
designate in a notice  similarly sent, or (iv) on the day of receipt if such day
is a business day when sent by a facsimile,  otherwise on the next  business day
after  receipt,  as evidenced by a facsimile  confirmation  receipt.  Any notice
given by a party to  Escrow  Agent  shall be  simultaneously  given to the other
party.  Any  notice  given  by a  party  to  the  other  party  relating  to its
entitlement to the Escrowed Amount shall be  simultaneously  given to the Escrow
Agent.

      12.3  Construction.  Words of any gender used in this  Agreement  shall be
held and construed to include any other gender,  and words of a singular  number
shall be held to include the plural and vice versa,  unless the context requires
otherwise.

      12.4 Captions.  The captions used in connection  with the Articles of this
Agreement are for convenience  only and shall not be deemed to extend,  limit or
otherwise define or construe the meaning of the language of this Agreement.

      12.5 No Other Parties.  Nothing in this Agreement,  express or implied, is
intended  to confer upon any  person,  other than the  parties  hereto and their
respective  successors and assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of
this Agreement;  provided that persons named as the beneficiary of any waiver or
indemnity in this Agreement are third-party  beneficiaries  under this Agreement
as to such  provisions and may enforce such provisions as if they are parties to
this Agreement.

      12.6  Amendments.  This  Agreement  may  be  amended  only  by  a  written
instrument executed by Seller and Buyer (or Buyer's assignee or transferee).

      12.7  Severability.  If any provision of this  Agreement or application to
any  party  or  circumstance  shall be  determined  by any  court  of  competent
jurisdiction  to be invalid and  unenforceable  to any extent,  the remainder of
this  Agreement  or  the  application  of  such  provision  to  such  person  or
circumstances,  other  than  those as to which it is so  determined  invalid  or
unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each provision hereof shall be
valid and shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

      12.8  Applicable  Law.  This  Agreement  shall be  construed  under and in
accordance with the laws of state in which the Property is located.

      12.9  Counterparts.  This  Agreement  may be  executed  in two (2) or more
counterparts,  each of which shall be an original but such counterparts together
shall constitute one and the same instrument notwithstanding that both Buyer and
Seller are not signatory to the same counterpart.

      12.10 Time of the Essence. Time is expressly declared to be of the essence
of this Agreement,  provided, however that in the event any date hereunder falls
on a Saturday,  Sunday or legal holiday,  the date applicable  shall be the next
business day.

      12.11 No Personal Liability.  The obligations of Seller hereunder shall be
binding only on the Property and neither Buyer nor anyone  claiming by,  through
or under  Buyer shall be entitled  to obtain any  judgment  extending  liability
beyond the Property or creating  personal  liability on the part of the partners
of the Seller or of the officers, directors, shareholders, advisors or agents of
Seller or Seller's partners or any of their successors.   Under no circumstances
is any person  other than  Seller  liable for  Seller's  obligations  under this
Agreement or in respect of the transaction  contemplated by this Agreement,  and
Buyer hereby waives any right that it otherwise might have to pursue any partner
of Seller, any other person who might be liable for Seller's obligations because
of the  direct  or  indirect  ownership  interest  in  Seller,  or any  officer,
director, agent, advisor or affiliate of any such partner or other person.

      12.12 No Recordation.  Without the prior written consent of Seller,  there
shall be no recordation of either this  Agreement or any memorandum  hereof,  or
any affidavit  pertaining  hereto, and any such recordation of this Agreement or
memorandum hereto by Purchaser without the prior written consent of Seller shall
constitute a default hereunder by Buyer,  whereupon this Agreement shall, at the
option  of  Seller,  terminate  and be of no  further  force  and  effect.  Upon
termination,  the  Escrowed  Amount  shall be  immediately  delivered to Seller,
whereupon the parties shall have no further duties or obligations to one another
except as otherwise specifically provided herein.

      12.13 Waiver.  The excuse or waiver of the  performance  by a party of any
obligation  of the other party under this  Agreement  shall only be effective if
evidenced by a written statement signed by the party so excusing or waiving.  No
delay in exercising any right or remedy shall  constitute a waiver thereof,  and
no waiver by Seller or Buyer of the  breach of any  covenant  of this  Agreement
shall be construed as a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same
or any other covenant or condition of this Agreement.

      12.14 Binding On Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement  shall be binding
upon and  inure to the  benefit  of the  parties  hereto  and  their  respective
successors and assigns.

      12.15 Entire  Agreement.  This Agreement  constitutes the entire agreement
between the parties hereto with respect to the transactions contemplated herein,
and it supersedes all prior  discussions,  understandings or agreements  between
the  parties.  All  Exhibits and  Schedules  attached  hereto are a part of this
Agreement and are incorporated herein by reference.

      12.16  Construction  of Agreement.  This Agreement  shall not be construed
more  strictly  against one party than against the other merely by virtue of the
fact that it may have been prepared primarily by counsel for one of the parties,
it being  recognized that both Buyer and Seller have  contributed  substantially
and materially to the preparation of this Agreement.

      12.17 Further  Instruments.  Each party,  promptly upon the request of the
other,  shall  execute and have  acknowledged  and  delivered to the other or to
Escrow Agent, as may be appropriate,  any and all further instruments reasonably
requested or  appropriate  to evidence or give effect to the  provisions of this
Agreement and which are consistent with the provisions of this Agreement.

      12.18 Buyer  Represented by Counsel.  Buyer hereby represents and warrants
to Seller that (i) Buyer is not in a significantly disparate bargaining position
in relation to Seller,  (ii) Buyer is represented by legal counsel in connection
with the transaction  contemplated by this Agreement,  and (iii) Buyer is buying
the Property for business,  commercial,  investment or other similar purpose and
not for use as Buyer's residence.

      12.19 Preparation of Documents. All of the documents to be executed at the
Closing shall be in the form prepared to the reasonable satisfaction of Seller's
and Buyer's  counsel and  delivered to Buyer on or before five (5) business days
prior to the Closing  Date,  provided  that the failure to timely  deliver  such
documents shall not constitute a default by Seller hereunder.

      12.20  Like-Kind  Exchange.  Buyer  may  consummate  the  purchase  of the
Property as part of a so-called like kind exchange (the "Exchange")  pursuant to
?1031 of the Internal  Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the  "Code"),  provided
that: (i) the Closing shall not be delayed or affected by reason of the Exchange
nor shall the  consummation  or  accomplishment  of the  Exchange be a condition
precedent or condition  subsequent to Buyer's  obligations under this Agreement;
(ii) Buyer shall effect the Exchange through an assignment of this Agreement, or
its  rights  but  not its  obligations  under  this  Agreement,  to a  qualified
intermediary;  (iii) Seller shall not be required to take an  assignment  of the
purchase  agreement for the  relinquished  property or be required to acquire or
hold title to any real property for purposes of consummating the Exchange;  (iv)
Buyer shall pay any and all additional  costs that would not otherwise have been
incurred by Buyer or Seller had Buyer not consummated  its purchase  through the
Exchange;  (v) all  documents  to be executed by Seller in  connection  with the
Exchange  shall be submitted to Seller at least five (5) business  days prior to
Closing and shall be subject to Seller's  reasonable  approval,  and (vi) Seller
shall incur no liability  whatsoever in  connection  with the Exchange and Buyer
agrees to  indemnify,  defend  and save  Seller  harmless  from any and all such
liability.  Seller shall not by this agreement or  acquiescence  to the Exchange
(1) have its rights under this Agreement against Buyer affected or diminished in
any  manner  or (2) be  responsible  for  compliance  with or be  deemed to have
warranted to Buyer that the Exchange in fact complies with ?1031 of the Code.

Attn: N. Christopher Cheatum

      Re:   The Monterra Apartments, San Diego, California

Dear Mr. Cheatum:

      Reference is hereby made to that certain  Purchase and Sale Agreement (the
"Agreement"),  dated as of July 10,  1998,  by and between Crow  PaineWebber  La
Jolla Limited  Partnership (the "Seller") and R&B Westside,  Inc. (the "Buyer").
All  capitalized  terms not  otherwise  defined  herein  shall have the meanings
ascribed to them in the Agreement.

      Buyer and Seller  hereby  agree  that for  purposes  of all due  diligence
investigations  other than review of the Survey and the Title  Commitment  (with
respect  only  matters  relating to the Survey)  ("Survey  Related  Review") the
Diligence  Date is August 10, 1998.  Buyer hereby  waives its right to terminate
the  Agreement  in  accordance  with  Section 5.2 for any reason  other than its
Survey Related Review.

      Buyer has not yet  received an updated  Survey.  Seller  acknowledges  and
agrees that Buyer shall have until August 17, 1998 (the "Survey Extension Date")
to complete its Survey Related Review.  Buyer shall submit all Title  Objections
(limited  to matters  uncovered  in its Survey  Related  Review) to Seller on or
prior to 5:00 p.m. on the Survey Extension Date, and Seller shall have until ten
(10) days following the Survey Extension Date (the "Title Objection Reply Date")
to give Buyer written notice identifying any such Title Objections, if any, that
Seller agrees to use reasonable efforts to cure;  provided however,  that Seller
shall not be  obligated  to incur any costs or expenses in  connection  with any
such cure  undertaken by Seller.  If there are any such Title  Objections  which
Seller is unable or  unwilling to cure,  Buyer may  terminate  the  Agreement in
accordance  with  Section 5.2 of the  Agreement by written  notice  submitted to
Seller  not later than 5:00 p.m.  within  three (3)  business  days of the Title
Objection  Reply Date or waive such  objections  which  Seller is not willing or
able to cure and proceed to Closing.

       In addition,  Seller and Buyer agree that Section 7.3 of the Agreement is
hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced in its entirety by the following:

      7.3 Closing Date.  Subject to Seller's right to extend the Closing Date as
      provided  in  Section  7.1,  the  consummation  of the  purchase  and sale
      contemplated  in this Agreement (the  "Closing")  shall occur on September
      10,  1998 (the  "Closing  Date"),  at the  office of the  Escrow  Agent or
      through the escrow  closing  arrangements  set forth in the Form of Escrow

Seller at the time of the Closing if, and only if, the Closing  occurs.  Time is
expressly  declared to be of the  essence  with  respect to the Closing  Date as
extended as provided herein.  Notwithstanding the provisions of the Agreement or
of Paragraph 1 of the Earnest Money Escrow Instructions attached as Exhibit D to
the  Agreement  and  executed by each of the parties to this Letter (the "Escrow
Agreement",   Buyer  expressly  acknowledges  that  if  Buyer  defaults  in  its
obligations  under the  Agreement  and the Closing does not occur on the Closing
Date as extended as provided  herein,  Buyer hereby (i) waives all of its rights
pursuant to Section 1 of the Escrow Agreement,  including,  without  limitation,
the right to  receive a copy of any  Demand  delivered  by Seller to the  Escrow
Agent and the right to consent to the disbursement by the Escrow Agent to Seller
of the remainder of the Escrowed Amount,  and (ii) authorizes and directs Escrow
Agent to disburse to Seller the remainder of the Escrowed Amount with respect to
the Property in accordance with the foregoing wire instructions immediately upon
receipt of a Demand or telephonic order from Seller alone.

      Except as expressly  set forth herein,  all terms of the Agreement  remain
unmodified and in full force and effect.
