AIMCO
LITIGATION SETTLEMENT OFFER
AIMCO PROPERTIES, L.P.
IS OFFERING TO PURCHASE ANY AND ALL UNITS OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTEREST
IN DAVIDSON INCOME REAL ESTATE, L.P.
FOR $429.86 PER UNIT IN CASH
This Litigation Settlement Offer is being made as part of a proposed
settlement of a class action and derivative lawsuit brought on behalf of limited
partners in your partnership. PRELIMINARY COURT APPROVAL HAS BEEN OBTAINED. The
settlement is subject to final court approval. The method of determining the
offer price and other terms of the offer were negotiated at arm's length with
settlement class counsel and incorporated into the settlement. Approximately 5%
of our offer price represents a payment from a settlement fund that we have
established, which you will be entitled to receive if we receive court approval
and you do not request exclusion from the settlement class. ROBERT A. STANGER
AND CO., INC., AN INDEPENDENT INVESTMENT BANKING FIRM, HAS DELIVERED AN OPINION
THAT OUR CASH OFFER PRICE IS FAIR TO YOU FROM A FINANCIAL POINT OF VIEW.
If units tendered for cash in this and other offers made as part of the
settlement exceed $50 million (exclusive of amounts payable out of the
settlement fund), we will accept only $50 million dollars of units on a pro rata
basis according to the value of units tendered by each person.
Our offer and your withdrawal rights will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York
City time, on December 30, 1999, unless we extend the deadline.
-----------------------------
SEE "RISK FACTORS" BEGINNING ON PAGE 2 OF THIS LITIGATION SETTLEMENT
OFFER FOR A DESCRIPTION OF RISK FACTORS THAT YOU SHOULD CONSIDER IN CONNECTION
WITH OUR OFFER, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
o We determined our offer price in accordance with a method agreed
upon by counsel representing the settlement class. The price per
unit reflects an amount to be paid to tendering unitholders after
taking into account amounts for estimated attorney fees, costs,
and expenses which class counsel is permitted to seek in
connection with the settlement. Our offer price may not reflect
the fair market value of your units.
o Stanger, in analyzing our offer, has estimated the net asset
value, liquidation value and going concern value of your
partnership units to be $454.00, $433.00 and $411.00 per unit.
o As of June 30, 1998, your general partner (which is our
subsidiary) estimated the net asset value of your units to be
$552.00 per unit and an affiliate estimated the net liquidation
value of your units to be $535.29 per unit.
If you desire to accept our offer, you should complete and sign the
enclosed letter of transmittal in accordance with the instructions thereto and
mail or deliver the signed letter of transmittal and any other required
documents to River Oaks Partnership Services, Inc., which is acting as
Information Agent in connection with our offer, at one of its addresses set
forth on the back cover of this Litigation Settlement Offer. QUESTIONS AND
REQUESTS FOR ASSISTANCE OR FOR ADDITIONAL COPIES OF THIS OFFER TO PURCHASE OR
THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL MAY ALSO BE DIRECTED TO THE INFORMATION AGENT AT (888)
349-2005.

<PAGE> 2
(continued from cover page)
o Although your partnership's agreement of limited partnership
provides for termination in the year 2000 the prospectus pursuant
to which the units were sold in July 1985 indicated that the
properties owned by your partnership might be sold within 3 to 7
years of their acquisition if conditions permitted.
o Continuation of your partnership will result in our affiliates
continuing to receive management fees from your partnership. Such
fees would not be payable if your partnership was liquidated.
o Your general partner and the property manager of the properties
are subsidiaries of ours and, therefore, the general partner has
substantial conflicts of interest with respect to our offer.
o Although our offer price has been determined based on
negotiations with counsel for the settlement class, we are making
this offer with a view to making a profit and, therefore, there
is a conflict between our desire to purchase your units at a low
price and your desire to sell your units at a high price.
o For any units that we acquire from you, you will not receive any
future distributions from operating cash flow of your partnership
or upon a sale or refinancing of properties owned by your
partnership.
o Under the settlement, we will be required to make an additional
offer to purchase units within 18 months at a price which may be
higher than this offer.
o If we acquire a substantial number of units, we will increase our
ability to influence voting decisions with respect to your
partnership and may control such voting decisions, including but,
not limited to, the removal of the general partner, most
amendments to the partnership agreement and the sale of all or
substantially all of your partnership's assets.
-----------------------------
Our offer price will be reduced for any distributions subsequently made
by your partnership prior to the expiration of our offer. We will notify you of
any such reduction.
You will not pay any partnership transfer fees if you tender your units.
However, you may incur transfer taxes, brokerage fees and other costs.
Our offer is not subject to any minimum number of units being tendered.

INTRODUCTION
This Litigation Settlement Offer is being made as part of a proposed
settlement of a class action and derivative lawsuit in the Superior Court of the
State of California, County of San Mateo, entitled Nuanes et al. v. Insignia
Financial Group, Inc., et al. The terms and conditions of the proposed
settlement are set forth in a stipulation of settlement (the "Stipulation").
Preliminary court approval has been obtained. However, the settlement is subject
to final court approval after a hearing in which all class members may
participate. The method of determining the offer price is the result of
arms-length negotiations between us and counsel representing a group of the
limited partners in your partnership and sixty other partnerships formerly
managed by Insignia Financial Group, Inc. and/or its affiliates. The offer price
per unit reflects an amount to be paid to tendering unitholders after taking
into account amounts for estimated attorney's fees, costs, and expenses which
class counsel is permitted to seek in connection with the settlement.
Approximately 5% of our offer price represents a payment from a settlement fund
that we have established, which you will be entitled to receive if we receive
court approval and you do not request exclusion from the settlement class. If
units tendered for cash in this offer and other tender offers made as part of
the settlement exceed $50 million in value (exclusive of amounts payable out of
the settlement fund), we will accept only $50 million of units on a pro rata
basis, according to the value of units tendered by each person.
Subject to the $50 million limitation and the terms and conditions set
forth herein, we are offering to purchase all outstanding units validly tendered
for the purchase price of $429.86 per unit net to the seller in cash, without
interest, less the amount of distributions, if any, made by your partnership in
respect of any unit from the date hereof until the expiration date; provided,
that approximately 5% of our offer price represents a payment from a settlement
fund that we have established, which you will be entitled to receive if we
receive court approval and you do not request exclusion from the settlement
class. Our offer is made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth
in this offer to purchase and in the accompanying letter of transmittal.
If units are validly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the
expiration date and the purchase of all such units would result in there being
less than 320 unitholders, we will purchase only 99% of the total number of
units so tendered by each limited partner (subject to any necessary adjustments
for fractional units.) If more units are validly tendered and not withdrawn in
response to our offer than we have indicated we are willing or able to purchase,
we will accept units pro rata according to the value of units validly tendered
and not withdrawn by each limited partner. Any such proration would reduce the
number of units that we purchase from you, with a corresponding reduction in the
amount payable to you.
We will pay any transfer fees imposed for the transfer of units by your
partnership. However, you will be responsible for any taxes that arise from your
sale of units. You will also have to pay any fees or commissions imposed by your
broker, or by any custodian or other trustee of any Individual Retirement
Account or benefit plan which is the owner of record of your units. Although the
fees charged for transferring units from an Individual Retirement Account vary,
such fees are typically $25-$50 per transaction. Depending on the number of
units that you tender, any fees charged on a per transaction basis could exceed
the aggregate offer price you receive if some of your units are not accepted by
us (as a result of proration or otherwise).
We have retained River Oaks Partnership Services, Inc. to act as the
Information Agent in connection with our offer. We will pay all charges and
expenses in connection with the services of the Information Agent. The offer is
not conditioned on any minimum number of units being tendered. However, certain
other conditions do apply. See "The Offer--17. Conditions of the Offer" You may
tender all or any portion of the units that you own. Under no circumstances will
we be required to accept any unit if the transfer of that unit to us would be
prohibited by the agreement of limited partnership of your partnership.
Our offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on December 30,
1999, unless extended. If you desire to accept our offer, you must complete and
sign the letter of transmittal in accordance with the instructions contained
therein and forward or hand deliver it, together with any other required
documents, to the Information Agent. You may withdraw your tender of units
pursuant to the offer at any time prior to the expiration date of our offer and,
if we have not accepted such units for payment, on or after January 11, 2000.

RISK FACTORS
Before deciding whether or not to tender any of your units, you should
consider carefully the following risks and disadvantages of the offer:
OFFER PRICE NOT BASED UPON THIRD PARTY VALUATION OR APPRAISAL
The offer price of $429.86 per unit was determined by using a method
negotiated at arms-length between us and counsel for plaintiffs in a class
action lawsuit brought on behalf of the limited partners in your partnership and
forty-eight other partnerships. Approximately 5% of our offer price represents a
payment from a settlement fund that we have established, which you will be
entitled to receive court approval and you do not request exclusion from the
settlement class. Nevertheless, our offer consideration may not reflect the fair
market value of your units, the liquidation value of your partnership or any
other traditional methods of valuating partnership units. We did not use any
third-party appraisal or valuation to determine the value of your partnership's
properties. It is uncertain whether our offer consideration reflects the value
which would be realized upon a sale of your units or a liquidation of your
partnership's assets. Your general partner makes no recommendation to you as to
whether or not you should tender your units. We have retained Robert A. Stanger
& Co., Inc., an independent investment banking firm, to conduct an analysis of
the offer and to render an opinion as the fairness to you of the offer price
from a financial point of view.
OFFER PRICE MAY NOT REPRESENT FAIR MARKET VALUE
There is no established or regular trading market for your units, nor is
there another reliable standard for determining the fair market value of the
units. Our offer price does not necessarily reflect the price that you would
receive in an open market for your units. Such prices could be higher than our
offer price.
OFFER PRICE DOES NOT REFLECT FUTURE PROSPECTS
Our offer price is based on your partnership's historical property income.
It does not ascribe any value to potential future improvements in the operating
performance of your partnership's properties.
OFFER PRICE MAY NOT REPRESENT LIQUIDATION VALUE
The actual proceeds obtained from a liquidation are highly uncertain and
could be more than our offer price. Accordingly, our offer price could be less
than the net proceeds that you would realize upon an actual liquidation of your
partnership.
FAIRNESS OPINION OF THIRD PARTY RELIED ON INFORMATION WE PROVIDED
Robert A. Stanger & Co., Inc.'s analysis of our offer and opinion as to
the fairness to you of our offer consideration from a financial point of view
relies on information prepared by the general partner of your partnership (which
is our subsidiary). No tests of the underlying data were performed, and no
independent appraisal was conducted. Because the fairness opinion will not be
updated, changes may occur from the date of the fairness opinion that might
affect the conclusions expressed in the opinion.
2
<PAGE> 6
CONTINUATION OF THE PARTNERSHIP; NO TIME FRAME REGARDING SALE OF PROPERTIES
Your general partner (which is our subsidiary) is proposing to continue to
operate your partnership and not to attempt to liquidate it at the present time.
Thus, our offer does not satisfy any expectation that you would receive the
return of your investment in the partnership through a property sale. It is not
known when the properties owned by your partnership may be sold. There may be no
way to liquidate your investment in the partnership in the future until the
properties are sold and the partnership is liquidated. The general partner of
your partnership continually considers whether a property should be sold or
otherwise disposed of after consideration of relevant factors, including
prevailing economic conditions, availability of favorable financing and tax
considerations, with a view to achieving maximum capital appreciation for your
partnership. At the current time the general partner of your partnership
believes that a sale of the properties would not be advantageous given market
conditions, the condition of the properties and tax considerations. In
particular, the general partner considered the changes in the local rental
market, the potential for appreciation in the value of the properties and the
tax consequences to you and your partners on a sale of the properties. We cannot
predict when any property will be sold or otherwise disposed of.
HOLDING UNITS MAY RESULT IN GREATER FUTURE VALUE
Although a liquidation of your partnership is not currently contemplated
in the near future, you might receive more value if you retain your units until
your partnership is liquidated.
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST WITH RESPECT TO THE OFFER; NO GENERAL PARTNER
RECOMMENDATION
The general partner of your partnership is our subsidiary and, therefore,
has substantial conflicts of interest with respect to our offer. We are making
this offer to settle the lawsuit and with a view to making a profit. There is a
conflict between our desire to purchase your units at a low price and your
desire to sell your units at a high price. The general partner of your
partnership makes no recommendation as to whether you should tender or refrain
from tendering your units. Although the general partner believes the offer is
fair, you must make you own decision whether or not to participate in the offer,
based upon a number of factors, including your financial position, your need or
desire for liquidity, other financial opportunities available to you, and your
tax position and the tax consequences to you of selling your units.
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST RELATING TO MANAGEMENT FEES
Since our subsidiary receives fees for managing your partnership and its
properties, a conflict of interest exists between our continuing the partnership
and receiving such fees, and the liquidation of the partnership and the
termination of such fees. Another conflict is the fact that a decision of the
limited partners of your partnership to remove, for any reason, the general
partner of your partnership or the property manager of any property owned by
your partnership would result in a decrease or elimination of the substantial
fees paid to them for services provided to your partnership.
RECOGNITION OF TAXABLE GAIN ON A SALE OF YOUR UNITS
Your sale of units for cash will be a taxable sale, with the result that
you will recognize taxable gain or loss measured by the difference between the
amount realized on the sale and your adjusted tax basis in the units of limited
partnership interest you transfer to us. The "amount realized" with respect to a
unit of limited partnership interest of your partnership you transfer to us will
be equal to the sum of the amount of cash received by you for the unit sold
pursuant to the offer plus the amount of partnership liabilities allocable to
the unit. The particular tax consequences for you of our offer will depend upon
a number of factors related to your tax situation, including your tax basis in
the units you transfer to us, whether you dispose of all of your units and
whether you have available suspended passive losses, credits or other tax items
to offset any gain recognized as a result of your sale of your units. Therefore,
depending on your basis in the units and your tax position, your taxable gain
and any tax liability resulting from a sale of units to us pursuant to the offer
could exceed our offer price. Because the income tax consequences of tendering
units will not be the same for everyone, you should consult your own tax advisor
to determine the tax consequences of the offer to you.
3
<PAGE> 7
TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE SETTLEMENT FUND AMOUNT
Approximately 5% of our offer price represents a payment from a settlement
fund that we have established, which you will be entitled to receive if we
receive court approval and you do not request exclusion from the settlement
class. The proper treatment for federal income tax purposes of your receipt of
such amount is uncertain. While we believe that such amount should be treated as
additional consideration for the units pursuant to this offer, no assurance can
be given that the Internal Revenue Service will not assert that such amount
should be treated as a payment in exchange for your release of the defendants
from current and future claims and taxed as ordinary income. You should consult
your own tax advisor regarding the tax consequences to you with respect to your
right to, and your receipt of, such amount, including the possibility of
reporting such a amount under the installment method of reporting.
LOSS OF FUTURE DISTRIBUTIONS FROM YOUR PARTNERSHIP
If you tender your units in response to our offer, you will transfer to us
all right, title and interest in and to all of the units we accept, and the
right to receive all distributions in respect of such units on and after the
date on which we accept such units for purchase. Accordingly, for any units that
we acquire from you, you will not receive any future distributions from
operating cash flow of your partnership or upon a sale or refinancing of
property owned by your partnership.
POSSIBLE INCREASE IN CONTROL OF YOUR PARTNERSHIP BY US
Decisions with respect to the day-to-day management of your partnership
are the responsibility of the general partner. Because the general partner of
your partnership is our affiliate, we control the management of your
partnership. Under your partnership's agreement of limited partnership, limited
partners holding a majority of the outstanding units must approve certain
extraordinary transactions, including the removal of the general partner, the
addition of a new general partner, most amendments to the partnership agreement
and the sale of all or substantially all of your partnership's assets. If we
acquire 8,190.99 additional units, we will own a majority of the outstanding
units and will have the ability to control any vote of the limited partners.
RECOGNITION OF GAIN RESULTING FROM POSSIBLE FUTURE REDUCTION IN YOUR PARTNERSHIP
LIABILITIES
Generally, a decrease in your share of partnership liabilities is treated,
for Federal income tax purposes, as a deemed cash distribution. Although no
general partner of your partnership has any current plan or intention to reduce
the liabilities of your partnership, it is possible that future economic,
market, legal, tax or other considerations may cause a general partner to reduce
the liabilities of your partnership. If you retain all or a portion of your
units and the liabilities of your partnership were to be reduced, you would be
treated as receiving a hypothetical distribution of cash resulting from a
decrease in your share of the liabilities of the partnership. Any such
hypothetical distribution of cash would be treated as a nontaxable return of
capital to the extent of your adjusted tax basis in your units and thereafter as
gain.
RISK OF INABILITY TO TRANSFER UNITS FOR 12-MONTH PERIOD
Your partnership's agreement of limited partnership prohibits any transfer
of an interest if such transfer, together with all other transfers during the
preceding 12 months, would cause 50% or more of the total interest in capital
and profits of your partnership to be transferred within such 12-month period.
If we acquire a significant percentage of the interest in your partnership, you
may not be able to transfer your units for a 12-month period following our
offer.
POTENTIAL DELAY IN PAYMENT
We reserve the right to extend the period of time during which our offer
is open and thereby delay acceptance for payment of any tendered units. The
offer may be extended indefinitely and no payment will be made in respect of
tendered units until the expiration of the offer and acceptance of units for
payment.

<PAGE> 8
BALLOON PAYMENT
Your partnership has balloon payments of approximately $6,080, $4,100 and
$1,097 due on mortgage debt in October, 2003, November, 2003 and November, 2002,
respectively. Your partnership will have to refinance such debt or sell one or
more of its properties prior to each respective balloon payment date, or it will
be in default and could lose one or more of the properties subject to such debt
to foreclosure.
THE OFFER
SECTION 1. TERMS OF THE OFFER; EXPIRATION DATE; PRORATION.
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Litigation Settlement
Offer, we will accept (and thereby purchase) all units that are validly tendered
on or prior to the expiration date and not withdrawn in accordance with the
procedures set forth in "The Offer -- 4. Withdrawal Rights." For purposes of the
offer, the term "expiration date" shall mean 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on
December 30, 1999, unless we in our sole discretion shall have extended the
period of time for which the offer is open, in which event the term "expiration
date" shall mean the latest time and date on which the offer, as extended by us,
shall expire. See "The Offer -- Section 5. Extension of Tender Period;
Termination; Amendment" for a description of our right to extend the period of
time during which the offer is open and to amend or terminate the offer.
The purchase price per unit will automatically be reduced by the aggregate
amount of distributions per unit, if any, made by your partnership to you on or
after the commencement of our offer and prior to the date on which we acquire
your units pursuant to our offer.
If, prior to the expiration date, we increase the consideration offered to
limited partners pursuant to the offer, the increased consideration will be paid
for all units accepted for payment pursuant to the offer, whether or not the
units were tendered prior to the increase in consideration.
Concurrently with this offer, we are also making similar tender offers to
the limited partners of 48 additional partnerships involved in the lawsuit. The
total amount being offered for the units in all such partnerships (exclusive of
amounts owned by us and our affiliates) is approximately $480 million. However,
pursuant to the Stipulation, we are not required to pay a cash consideration of
more than $50 million (excluding any amounts payable under the settlement fund)
million pursuant to all such tender offers. If more than $50 million of units
are validly tendered for cash, we will accept units on a pro rata basis for all
such partnerships according to the value of units validly tendered by each
person and not properly withdrawn on or prior to the expiration date, with
appropriate adjustments to avoid purchases of fractional units. We may increase
the $50 million cash limit in our sole and absolute discretion and if we do so,
we will send you a notice.
In addition, if units are validly tendered prior to the expiration date
and not properly withdrawn prior to the expiration date in accordance with the
procedures set forth in "The Offer-- Section 4. Withdrawal Rights" and the
purchase of all such units would result in (i) a "Rule 13e-3 transaction" within
the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") , or
(ii) there being less than 320 unitholders, we will purchase only 99% of the
total number of units so tendered by each limited partner (subject to any
necessary adjustment for fractional units). In such case, you would continue to
be a limited partner and receive a K-1 for tax reporting purposes. See "The
Offer -- Section 7. Effects of the Offer -- Effect on Trading
Market-Registration Under 12(g) of the Exchange Act."
If proration of tendered units is required, then, subject to our
obligation under Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act to pay limited partners
the purchase price in respect of units tendered or return those units promptly
after termination or withdrawal of the offer, we do not intend to pay for any
units accepted for payment pursuant to the offer until the final proration
results are known. Notwithstanding any such delay in payment, no interest will
be paid on the cash offer price.
The offer is conditioned on satisfaction of certain conditions. THE OFFER
IS NOT CONDITIONED UPON ANY MINIMUM NUMBER OF UNITS BEING TENDERED. See "The
Offer -- Section 17. Conditions of the Offer," which sets forth in full the
conditions of the offer. We reserve the right (but in no event shall we be
obligated), in our reasonable discretion, to
5
<PAGE> 9
waive any or all of those conditions. If, on or prior to the expiration date,
any or all of the conditions have not been satisfied or waived or are not
reasonably expected to be satisfied, we reserve the right to (i) decline to
purchase any of the units tendered, terminate the offer and return all tendered
units to tendering limited partners, (ii) waive all the unsatisfied conditions
and purchase all units validly tendered, (iii) extend the offer and, subject to
the withdrawal rights of limited partners, retain the units that have been
tendered during the period or periods for which the offer is extended, or (iv)
amend the offer.
This offer is being mailed to the persons shown by your partnership's
records to have been limited partners or, in the case of units owned of record
by Individual Retirement Accounts and qualified plans, beneficial owners of
units, as of October 1, 1999. The transfer of units will be effective October 1,
1999.
SECTION 2. ACCEPTANCE FOR PAYMENT AND PAYMENT FOR UNITS.
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the offer, we will
purchase, by accepting for payment, and will pay for all units validly tendered
as promptly as practicable following the expiration date. A tendering beneficial
owner of units whose units are owned of record by an Individual Retirement
Account or other qualified plan will not receive direct payment of the offer
price; rather, payment will be made to the custodian of such account or plan. In
all cases, payment for units purchased pursuant to the offer will be made only
after timely receipt by the Information Agent of a properly completed and duly
executed letter of transmittal and other documents required by the letter of
transmittal. See "The Offer -- Section 3. Procedure for Tendering Units." UNDER
NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL INTEREST BE PAID ON THE OFFER PRICE BY REASON OF ANY DELAY
IN MAKING SUCH PAYMENT.
We will, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the offer
(including the $50 million cash limitation), accept for payment and pay for all
units, with appropriate adjustments to avoid purchases that would violate the
agreement of limited partnership of your partnership and any relevant procedures
or regulations promulgated by the general partner. Accordingly, in some
circumstances, we may pay you the full offer price and accept an assignment of
your right to receive distributions and other payments in respect of the units
and an irrevocable proxy to vote the units, and defer, perhaps indefinitely, the
transfer of ownership of units on the partnership's books. In other
circumstances we may only be able to purchase units which, together with units
previously transferred within the preceding twelve months, do not exceed 50% of
the outstanding units.
Subject to the other terms and conditions of the offer, if more units than
can be purchased under the partnership agreement are validly tendered prior to
the expiration date and not properly withdrawn prior to the expiration date in
accordance with the procedures specified herein, we will, upon the terms and
subject to the conditions of the offer, accept for payment and pay for those
units so tendered which do not violate the terms of the partnership agreement,
pro rata according to the number of units validly tendered by each limited
partner and not properly withdrawn on or prior to the expiration date, with
appropriate adjustments to avoid purchases of fractional units. If the number of
units validly tendered and not properly withdrawn on or prior to the expiration
date is less than or equal to the maximum number we can purchase under the
partnership agreement or the terms and conditions of this offer, we will
purchase all units so tendered and not withdrawn, upon the terms and subject to
the conditions of the offer.
For purposes of the offer, we will be deemed to have accepted for payment
pursuant to the offer, and thereby purchased, validly tendered units, if, as and
when we give verbal or written notice to the Information Agent of our acceptance
of those units for payment pursuant to the offer. Payment for units accepted for
payment pursuant to the offer will be made through the Information Agent, which
will act as agent for tendering limited partners for the purpose of receiving
cash payments from us and transmitting cash payments to tendering limited
partners.
If any tendered units are not accepted for payment by us for any reason,
the letter of transmittal with respect to such units not purchased may be
destroyed by us or the Information Agent. If, for any reason, acceptance for
payment of, or payment for, any units tendered pursuant to the offer is delayed
or we are unable to accept for payment, purchase or pay for units tendered
pursuant to the offer, then, without prejudice to our rights under "The Offer --
Section 17. Conditions of the Offer," the Information Agent may, nevertheless,
on our behalf retain tendered units, and those units may not be withdrawn except
to the extent that the tendering limited partners are entitled to withdrawal
rights as described in "The Offer -- Section 4. Withdrawal Rights;" subject,
however, to our obligation under Rule 14e-1(c)
6
<PAGE> 10
under the Exchange Act, to pay you the offer price in respect of units tendered
or return those units promptly after termination or withdrawal of the offer.
We reserve the right to transfer or assign, in whole or in part, to one or
more of our affiliates, the right to purchase units tendered pursuant to the
offer, but no such transfer or assignment will relieve us of our obligations
under the offer or prejudice your rights to receive payment for units validly
tendered and accepted for payment pursuant to the offer.
SECTION 3. PROCEDURE FOR TENDERING UNITS.
Valid Tender. To validly tender units pursuant to the offer, a properly
completed and duly executed letter of transmittal and any other documents
required by such letter of transmittal must be received by the Information
Agent, at one of its addresses set forth on the back cover of this offer to
purchase, on or prior to the expiration date. You may tender all or any portion
of your units. No alternative, conditional or contingent tenders will be
accepted.
Signature Requirements. If the letter of transmittal is signed by the
registered holder of a unit and payment is to be made directly to that holder,
then no signature guarantee is required on the letter of transmittal. Similarly,
if a unit is tendered for the account of a member firm of a registered national
securities exchange, a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers,
Inc. or a commercial bank, savings bank, credit union, savings and loan
association or trust company having an office, branch or agency in the United
States (each an "Eligible Institution"), no signature guarantee is required on
the letter of transmittal. However, in all other cases, all signatures on the
letter of transmittal must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution.
In order for you to tender in the offer, your units must be validly
tendered and not withdrawn on or prior to the expiration date.
THE METHOD OF DELIVERY OF THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND ALL OTHER REQUIRED
DOCUMENTS IS AT YOUR OPTION AND RISK AND DELIVERY WILL BE DEEMED MADE ONLY WHEN
ACTUALLY RECEIVED BY THE INFORMATION AGENT. IF DELIVERY IS BY MAIL, REGISTERED
MAIL WITH RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED IS RECOMMENDED. IN ALL CASES, SUFFICIENT TIME
SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO ASSURE TIMELY DELIVERY.
Appointment as Proxy; Power of Attorney. By executing the letter of
transmittal, you are irrevocably appointing us and our designees as your proxy,
in the manner set forth in the letter of transmittal, each with full power of
substitution, to the fullest extent of the your rights with respect to the units
tendered by you and accepted for payment by us. Each such proxy shall be
considered coupled with an interest in the tendered units. Such appointment will
be effective when, and only to the extent that, we accept the tendered unit for
payment. Upon such acceptance for payment, all prior proxies given by you with
respect to the units will, without further action, be revoked, and no subsequent
proxies may be given (and if given will not be effective). We and our designees
will, as to those units, be empowered to exercise all voting and other rights as
a limited partner as we, in our sole discretion, may deem proper at any meeting
of limited partners, by written consent or otherwise. We reserve the right to
require that, in order for units to be deemed validly tendered, immediately upon
our acceptance for payment of the units, we must be able to exercise full voting
rights with respect to the units, including voting at any meeting of limited
partners then scheduled or acting by written consent without a meeting. By
executing the letter of transmittal, you agree to execute all such documents and
take such other actions as shall be reasonably required to enable the units
tendered to be voted in accordance with our directions. The proxy and power of
attorney granted by you to us upon your execution of the letter of transmittal
will remain effective and be irrevocable for a period of ten years following the
termination of our offer.
By executing the letter of transmittal, you also irrevocably constitute
and appoint us and our designees as your attorneys-in-fact, each with full power
of substitution, to the full extent of your rights with respect to the units
tendered by you and accepted for payment by us. Such appointment will be
effective when, and only to the extent that, we pay for your units. You will
agree not to exercise any rights pertaining to the tendered units without our
prior consent. Upon such payment, all prior powers of attorney granted by you
with respect to such units will, without further action, be revoked, and no
subsequent powers of attorney may be granted (and if granted will not be
effective). Pursuant to such appointment as attorneys-in-fact, we and our
designees will each have the power, among other things, (i) to transfer
ownership of such units on the partnership books maintained by your general
partner (and execute and deliver any
7
<PAGE> 11
accompanying evidences of transfer and authenticity it may deem necessary or
appropriate in connection therewith), (ii) upon receipt by the Information Agent
of the offer consideration, to become a substituted limited partner, to receive
any and all distributions made by your partnership on or after the date on which
we acquire such units, and to receive all benefits and otherwise exercise all
rights of beneficial ownership of such units in accordance with the terms of our
offer, (iii) to execute and deliver to the general partner of your partnership a
change of address form instructing the general partner to send any and all
future distributions to which we are entitled pursuant to the terms of the offer
in respect of tendered units to the address specified in such form, and (iv) to
endorse any check payable to you or upon your order representing a distribution
to which we are entitled pursuant to the terms of our offer, in each case, in
your name and on your behalf.
If you tender units through the enclosed letter of transmittal you will
irrevocably constitute and appoint us and any of our designees as your true and
lawful agent and attorney-in-fact with respect to such units, with full power of
substitution (such power of attorney being deemed to be an irrevocable power
coupled with an interest), to withdraw any or all of such units that have been
previously tendered in response to any other tender or exchange offer, provided
that the price per unit we are offering is equal to or higher than the price per
unit being offered in the other tender or exchange offer. Such appointment is
effective upon the receipt of such letter of transmittal and shall continue to
be effective unless and until you withdraw such units from this offer prior to
the expiration date.
Assignment of Interest in Future Distributions. By executing the letter of
transmittal, you will irrevocably assign to us and our assigns all of your
right, title and interest in and to any and all distributions made by your
partnership from any source and of any nature, including, without limitation,
distributions in the ordinary course, distributions from sales of assets,
distributions upon liquidation, winding-up, or dissolution, payments in
settlement of existing or future litigation, and all other distributions and
payments from and after the expiration date of our offer, in respect of the
units tendered by you and accepted for payment and thereby purchased by us. If,
after the unit is accepted for payment and purchased by us, you receive any
distribution from any source and of any nature, including, without limitation,
distributions in the ordinary course, distributions from sales of assets,
distributions upon liquidation, winding-up or dissolution, payments in
settlement of existing or future litigation and all other distributions and
payments, from your partnership in respect of such unit, you will agree to
forward promptly such distribution to us.
Determination of Validity; Rejection of Units; Waiver of Defects; No
Obligation to Give Notice of Defects. All questions as to the validity, form,
eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance for payment of any tender
of units pursuant to our offer will be determined by us, in our reasonable
discretion, which determination shall be final and binding on all parties. We
reserve the absolute right to reject any or all tenders of any particular unit
determined by us not to be in proper form or if the acceptance of or payment for
that unit may, in the opinion of our counsel, be unlawful. We also reserve the
absolute right to waive or amend any of the conditions of the offer that we are
legally permitted to waive as to the tender of any particular unit and to waive
any defect or irregularity in any tender with respect to any particular unit of
any particular limited partner. Our interpretation of the terms and conditions
of the offer (including the letter of transmittal) will be final and binding on
all parties. No tender of units will be deemed to have been validly made unless
and until all defects and irregularities have been cured or waived. Neither us,
the Information Agent, nor any other person will be under any duty to give
notification of any defects or irregularities in the tender of any unit or will
incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.
Backup Federal Income Tax Withholding. To prevent the possible application
of back-up Federal income tax withholding of 31% with respect to payment of the
offer price, you may have to provide us with your correct taxpayer
identification number. See the instructions to the letter of transmittal and
"The Offer -- Section 6. Certain Federal Income Tax Matters."
FIRPTA Withholding. To prevent the withholding of Federal income tax in an
amount equal to 10% of the amount realized on the disposition (the amount
realized is generally the offer price plus the partnership liabilities allocable
to each unit purchased), you must certify that you are not a foreign person if
you tender units. See the instructions to the letter of transmittal and "The
Offer -- Section 6. Certain Federal Income Tax Matters."
Transfer Taxes. The amount of any transfer taxes (whether imposed on the
registered holder of units or any person) payable on account of the transfer to
such person will be deducted from the purchase price unless satisfactory
evidence of the payment of such taxes or exemption therefrom is submitted.

<PAGE> 12
Binding Agreement. A tender of a unit pursuant to any of the procedures
described above and the acceptance for payment of such unit will constitute a
binding agreement between the tendering unitholder and us on the terms set forth
in this offer to purchase and the related letter of transmittal.
SECTION 4. WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS.
You may withdraw tendered units at any time prior to the expiration date
or on or after January 11, 2000, if the units have not been previously accepted
for payment.
For a withdrawal to be effective, a written notice of withdrawal must be
timely received by the Information Agent at one of its addresses set forth on
the back cover of the offer to purchase. Any such notice of withdrawal must
specify the name of the person who tendered, the number of units to be withdrawn
and the name of the registered holder of such units, if different from the
person who tendered. In addition, the notice of withdrawal must be signed by the
person who signed the letter of transmittal in the same manner as the letter of
transmittal was signed.
If purchase of, or payment for, a unit is delayed for any reason, or if we
are unable to purchase or pay for a unit for any reason, then, without prejudice
to our rights under the offer, tendered units may be retained by the Information
Agent; subject, however, to our obligation, pursuant to Rule 14e-1(c) under the
Exchange Act, to pay the offer price in respect of units tendered or return
those units promptly after termination or withdrawal of our offer.
Any units properly withdrawn will thereafter be deemed not to have been
validly tendered for purposes of our offer. However, withdrawn units may be
re-tendered at any time prior to the expiration date by following the procedures
described in "The Offer -- Section 3. Procedure for Tendering Units."
All questions as to the validity and form (including time of receipt) of
notices of withdrawal will be determined by us in our reasonable discretion,
which determination will be final and binding on all parties. Neither we, the
Information Agent, nor any other person will be under any duty to give
notification of any defects or irregularities in any notice of withdrawal or
incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.
SECTION 5. EXTENSION OF TENDER PERIOD; TERMINATION; AMENDMENT.
We expressly reserve the right, in our reasonable discretion, at any time
and from time to time, (i) to extend the period of time during which our offer
is open and thereby delay acceptance for payment of, and payment for, any unit,
(ii) to terminate the offer and not accept any units not theretofore accepted
for payment or paid for if any of the conditions to the offer are not satisfied
or if any event occurs that might reasonably be expected to result in a failure
to satisfy such conditions, (iii) upon the occurrence of any of the conditions
specified in "The Offer -- Section 17. Conditions of the Offer," to delay the
acceptance for payment of, or payment for, any units not already accepted for
payment or paid for, and (iv) to amend our offer in any respect (including,
without limitation, by increasing the consideration offered, increasing or
decreasing the units being sought, or both). Notice of any such extension,
termination or amendment will promptly be disseminated to you in a manner
reasonably designed to inform you of such change. In the case of an extension of
the offer, the extension will be followed by a press release or public
announcement which will be issued no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time,
on the next business day after the scheduled expiration date of our offer, in
accordance with Rule 14e-1(d) under the Exchange Act.
If we extend the offer, or if we delay payment for a unit (whether before
or after its acceptance for payment) or are unable to pay for a unit pursuant to
our offer for any reason, then, without prejudice to our rights under the offer,
the Information Agent may retain tendered units and those units may not be
withdrawn except to the extent tendering unitholders are entitled to withdrawal
rights as described in "The Offer -- 4. Withdrawal Rights," subject, however, to
our obligation, pursuant to Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act, to pay the
offer price in respect of units tendered or return those units promptly after
termination or withdrawal of the offer.
9
<PAGE> 13
If we make a material change in the terms of our offer, or if we waive a
material condition to our offer, we will extend the offer and disseminate
additional tender offer materials to the extent required by Rule 14e-1 under the
Exchange Act. The minimum period during which the offer must remain open
following any material change in the terms of the offer, other than a change in
price or a change in percentage of securities sought or a change in any dealer's
soliciting fee, if any, will depend upon the facts and circumstances, including
the materiality of the change. With respect to a change in price or, subject to
certain limitations, a change in the percentage of securities sought or a change
in any dealer's soliciting fee, if any, a minimum of ten business days from the
date of such change is generally required to allow for adequate dissemination to
unitholders. Accordingly, if, prior to the expiration date, we increase (other
than increases of not more than two percent of the outstanding units) or
decrease the number of units being sought, or increase or decrease the offer
price, and if the offer is scheduled to expire at any time earlier than the
tenth business day after the date that notice of such increase or decrease is
first published, sent or given to unitholders, the offer will be extended at
least until the expiration of such ten business days. As used in the offer to
purchase, "business day" means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a
Federal holiday, and consists of the time period from 12:01 a.m. through 12:00
midnight, New York City time.
SECTION 6. CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS.
The following summary is a general discussion of certain of the United
States federal income tax consequences of the offer that may be relevant to (i)
unitholders who tender some or all of their units for cash pursuant to our
offer, and (ii) unitholders who do not tender any of their units pursuant to our
offer. This discussion is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the "Internal Revenue Code"), Treasury regulations, rulings issued by the
Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS"), and judicial decisions, all as of the date
of this offer to purchase. All of the foregoing are subject to change or
alternative construction, possibly with retroactive effect, and any such change
or alternative construction could affect the continuing accuracy of this
summary. This summary is based on the assumption that your partnership is
operated in accordance with its organizational documents including its
certificate of limited partnership and agreement of limited partnership. This
summary is for general information only and does not purport to discuss all
aspects of United States federal income taxation which may be important to a
particular person in light of its investment or tax circumstances, or to certain
types of investors subject to special tax rules (including financial
institutions, broker-dealers, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations and
foreign investors, as determined for United States federal income tax purposes),
nor (except as otherwise expressly indicated) does it describe any aspect of
state, local, foreign or other tax laws. This summary assumes that the units
constitute capital assets in the hands of the unitholders (generally, property
held for investment). No advance ruling has been or will be sought from the IRS
regarding any matter discussed in this offer to purchase. Further, no opinion of
counsel has been obtained with regard to the offer.
The United States federal income tax treatment of a unitholder
participating in the offer depends in some instances on determinations of fact
and interpretations of complex provisions of United States federal income tax
law for which no clear precedent or authority may be available. Accordingly, you
should consult your tax advisor regarding the United States federal, state,
local and foreign tax consequences of selling the limited partnership interests
in your partnership represented by units pursuant to our offer or of a decision
not to sell in light of your specific tax situation.
Tax Consequences to Limited Partners Tendering Units for Cash. You will
recognize gain or loss on a sale of a unit of limited partnership of your
partnership equal to the difference between (i) your "amount realized" on the
sale and (ii) your adjusted tax basis in the unit sold. The "amount realized"
with respect to a unit of limited partnership of your partnership will be equal
to the sum of the amount of cash received by you for the unit sold pursuant to
the offer plus the amount of partnership liabilities allocable to the unit (as
determined under Section 752 of the Internal Revenue Code). Thus, your taxable
gain and tax liability resulting from a sale of a unit of limited partnership of
your partnership could exceed the cash received upon such sale.
Adjusted Tax Basis. If you acquired your units of limited partnership of
your partnership for cash, your initial tax basis in such units was generally
equal to your cash investment in your partnership increased by your share of
partnership liabilities at the time you acquired such units. Your initial tax
basis generally has been increased by (i) your share of partnership income and
gains, and (ii) any increases in your share of partnership liabilities, and has
been decreased (but not below zero) by (i) your share of partnership cash
distributions, (ii) any decreases in your share of partnership liabilities,
(iii) your share of partnership losses, and (iv) your share of nondeductible
partnership expenditures that are not chargeable to capital. For purposes of
determining your adjusted tax basis in units of limited partnership of
10
<PAGE> 14
your partnership immediately prior to a disposition of your units, your adjusted
tax basis in your units will include your allocable share of partnership income,
gain or loss for the taxable year of disposition. If your adjusted tax basis is
less than your share of partnership liabilities (e.g., as a result of the effect
of net loss allocations and/or distributions exceeding the cost of your unit),
your gain recognized with respect to a unit of limited partnership of your
partnership pursuant to the offer will exceed the cash proceeds realized upon
the sale of such unit.
Character of Gain or Loss Recognized Pursuant to the Offer. Except as
described below, the gain or loss recognized by you on a sale of a unit of
limited partnership of your partnership pursuant to the offer generally will be
treated as a long-term capital gain or loss if you held the unit for more than
one year. Long-term capital gains recognized by individuals and certain other
noncorporate taxpayers generally will be subject to a maximum United States
federal income tax rate of 20%. If the amount realized with respect to a unit of
limited partnership of your partnership that is attributable to your share of
"unrealized receivables" of your partnership exceeds the tax basis attributable
to those assets, such excess will be treated as ordinary income. Among other
things, "unrealized receivables" include depreciation recapture for certain
types of property. In addition, the maximum United States federal income tax
rate applicable to persons who are noncorporate taxpayers for net capital gains
attributable to the sale of depreciable real property (which may be determined
to include an interest in a partnership such as your units) held for more than
one year is currently 25% (rather than 20%) with respect to that portion of the
gain attributable to depreciation deductions previously taken on the property.
If you tender a unit of limited partnership interest of your partnership
in the offer, you will be allocated a share of partnership taxable income or
loss for the year of tender with respect to any units sold. You will not receive
any future distributions on units of limited partnership interest of your
partnership tendered on or after the date on which such units are accepted for
purchase and, accordingly, you may not receive any distributions with respect to
such accreted income. Such allocation and any partnership cash distributions to
you for that year will affect your adjusted tax basis in your unit of limited
partnership interest of your partnership and, therefore, the amount of your
taxable gain or loss upon a sale of a unit pursuant to the offer.
Passive Activity Losses. The passive activity loss rules of the Internal
Revenue Code limit the use of losses derived from passive activities, which
generally include investments in limited partnership interests such as the units
of limited partnership interest of your partnership. An individual, as well as
certain other types of investors, generally cannot use losses from passive
activities to offset nonpassive activity income received during the taxable
year. Passive losses that are disallowed for a particular tax year are
"suspended" and may be carried forward to offset passive activity income earned
by the investor in future taxable years. In addition, such suspended losses may
be claimed as a deduction, subject to other applicable limitations, upon a
taxable disposition of the investor's interest in such activity.
Accordingly, if your investment in your units is treated as a passive
activity, you may be able to reduce gain from the sale of your units of limited
partnership interest of your partnership pursuant to the offer with passive
losses in the manner described below. If you sell all or a portion of your units
of limited partnership interest of your partnership pursuant to the offer and
recognize a gain on your sale, you will generally be entitled to use your
current and "suspended" passive activity losses (if any) from your partnership
and other passive sources to offset that gain. In general, if you sell all or a
portion of your units of limited partnership interest of your partnership
pursuant to the offer and recognize a loss on such sale, you will be entitled to
deduct that loss currently (subject to other applicable limitations) against the
sum of your passive activity income from your partnership for that year (if any)
plus any passive activity income from other sources for that year. If you sell
all of your units pursuant to the offer, the balance of any "suspended" losses
from your partnership that were not otherwise utilized against passive activity
income as described in the two preceding sentences will generally no longer be
suspended and will generally therefore be deductible (subject to any other
applicable limitations) by you against any other income for that year,
regardless of the character of that income. You are urged to consult your tax
advisor concerning whether, and the extent to which, you have available
"suspended" passive activity losses from your partnership or other investments
that may be used to reduce gain from the sale of units pursuant to the offer.
Tax Consequences of the Settlement Fund Amount. Approximately 5% of our
offer price represents a payment from a settlement fund (the "Settlement Fund
Amount") that we have established, which you will be entitled to receive if we
receive court approval and you do not request exclusion from the settlement
class. The proper treatment for federal
11
<PAGE> 15
income tax purposes of your receipt of the Settlement Fund Amount is uncertain.
While we believe that the Settlement Fund Amount should be treated as additional
consideration for the units pursuant to this offer, no assurance can be given
that the IRS will not assert that the Settlement Fund Amount should be treated
as a payment in exchange for your release of the defendants from current and
future claims and taxed as ordinary income. You should consult your own tax
advisor regarding the tax consequences to you with respect to your right to, and
your receipt of, the Settlement Fund Amount, including the possibility of
reporting the Settlement Fund Amount under the installment method of reporting.
Information Reporting, Backup Withholding and FIRPTA. If you tender any
units, you must report the transaction by filing a statement with your United
States federal income tax return for the year of the tender which provides
certain required information to the IRS. To prevent the possible application of
back-up United States federal income tax withholding of 31% with respect to the
payment of the offer consideration, you are generally required to provide us
with your correct taxpayer identification number. See the instructions to the
letter of transmittal.
Gain realized by a foreign person on the sale of a unit pursuant to the
offer will be subject to United States federal income tax under the Foreign
Investment in Real Property Tax Act of 1980. Under these provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code, the transferee of an interest held by a foreign person in
a partnership which owns United States real property generally is required to
deduct and withhold 10% of the amount realized on the disposition. Amounts
withheld would be creditable against a foreign person's United States federal
income tax liability and, if in excess thereof, a refund could be claimed from
the Internal Revenue Service by filing a United States income tax return. See
the instructions to the letter of transmittal.
Tax Consequences to Non-Tendering and Partially-Tendering Limited
Partners. Section 708 of the Internal Revenue Code provides that if there is a
sale or exchange of 50% or more of the total interest in capital and profits of
a partnership within any 12-month period, such partnership terminates for United
States federal income tax purposes. It is possible that our acquisition of units
pursuant to the offer alone or in combinations with other transfers of interests
in your partnership could result in such a termination of your partnership. If
your partnership is deemed to terminate for tax purposes, the following United
States federal income tax events will be deemed to occur: the terminated
partnership will be deemed to have contributed all of its assets (subject to its
liabilities) to a new partnership in exchange for an interest in the new
partnership and, immediately thereafter, the old partnership will be deemed to
have distributed interests in the new partnership to the remaining limited
partners in proportion to their respective interests in the old partnership in
liquidation of the old partnership.
A remaining limited partner will generally not recognize any gain or loss
upon the deemed distribution or upon the deemed contribution and the capital
accounts of the remaining limited partners in the old partnership will carry
over intact into the new partnership. A termination may change (and possibly
shorten) a remaining partner's holding period with respect to its retained units
in your partnership for United States federal income tax purposes.
The new partnership's adjusted tax basis in its assets will be the same as
the old partnership's basis in such assets immediately before the termination. A
termination may also subject the assets of the new partnership to depreciable
lives in excess of those currently applicable to the old partnership. This would
generally decrease the annual average depreciation deductions allocable to the
remaining limited partners for a number of years following consummation of the
offer (thereby increasing the taxable income allocable to their units in each
such year), but would have no effect on the total depreciation deductions
available over the useful lives of the assets of your partnership.
Elections as to certain tax matters previously made by the old partnership
prior to termination generally will not be applicable to the new partnership
unless the new partnership chooses to make the same elections.
Additionally, upon a termination for tax purposes, the old partnership's
taxable year will close for all limited partners. In the case of a remaining
limited partner or a partially tendering limited partner reporting on a tax year
other than a calendar year, the closing of the partnership's taxable year may
result in more than 12 months' taxable income or loss of the old partnership
being includible in such limited partner's taxable income for the year of
termination.

SECTION 7. EFFECTS OF THE OFFER.
Future Control by AIMCO. Because the general partner of your partnership
is our subsidiary, we have control over the management of your partnership. If
we are successful in acquiring more than 29.67% of the units pursuant to the
offer, we will own more than 50% of the total outstanding units and, as a
result, will be able to control the outcome of all voting decisions with respect
to your partnership. Even if we acquire a lesser number of units pursuant to the
offer, because we currently own approximately 20.69% of the outstanding units,
we will be able to significantly influence the outcome of all voting decisions
with respect to your partnership. In general, we will vote the units owned by us
in whatever manner we deem to be in our best interests, which may not be in the
interest of other limited partners. This could (1) prevent non-tendering limited
partners from taking action they desire but that we oppose and (2) enable us to
take action desired by us but opposed by non-tendering limited partners. We also
own the company that manages the residential properties owned by your
partnership. In the event that we acquire a substantial number of units pursuant
to the offer, removal of a property manager may become more difficult or
impossible. Notwithstanding the above, we have agreed in connection with the
settlement to certain limitations in connection with our voting rights. See "The
Offer -- Section 14. Voting Power."
Distributions to Us. If we acquire units in the offer, we will participate
in any subsequent distributions to limited partners to the extent of the units
purchased.
Partnership Status. We believe our purchase of units should not adversely
affect the issue of whether your partnership is classified as a partnership for
Federal income tax purposes.
Business. Our offer will not affect the operation of the properties owned
by your partnership. We will continue to control the general partner of your
partnership and the property manager, both of which will remain the same.
Consummation of the offer will not affect your agreement of limited partnership,
the operations of your partnership, the business and properties owned by your
partnership, the management compensation payable to your general partner or any
other matter relating to your partnership, except that it would result in us
increasing our ownership of units. We have no current intention of changing the
fee structure for your general partner or the manager of your partnership's
properties.
Effect on Trading Market; Registration Under 12(g) of the Exchange Act. If
a substantial number of units are purchased pursuant to the offer, the result
may be a reduction in the number of limited partners in your partnership. In the
case of certain kinds of equity securities, a reduction in the number of
security holders might be expected to result in a reduction in the liquidity and
volume of activity in the trading market for the security. In the case of your
partnership, however, there is no established public trading market for the
units and, therefore, we do not believe a reduction in the number of limited
partners will materially further restrict your ability to find purchasers for
your units through secondary market transactions.
The units are registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, which
means, among other things, that your partnership is required to file periodic
reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and to comply
with the proxy rules of the SEC. We do not expect or intend that consummation of
the offer will cause the units to cease to be registered under Section 12(g) of
the Exchange Act. If the units were to be held by fewer than 300 persons, your
partnership could apply to de-register the units under the Exchange Act. Your
partnership currently has 2,354 unitholders of record. If units are tendered
which would result in less than 320 unitholders, we will purchase no more than
99% of the units tendered by each unitholder to assure that there are more than
300 unitholders after the offer. See "The Offer -- Section 1. Terms of the
Offer; Expiration Date."

persons listed on Annex II attached hereto, (i) beneficially own or have a right
to acquire any units, (ii) have effected any transaction in the units in the
past 60 days, or (iii) have any contract, arrangement, understanding or
relationship with any other person with respect to any securities of your
partnership, including, but not limited to, contracts, arrangements,
understandings or relationships concerning transfer or voting thereof, joint
ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of loans,
guarantees against loss or the giving or withholding of proxies (except for
previous tender offers we may have conducted for units).

SECTION 9. BACKGROUND AND REASONS FOR THE OFFER.
GENERAL
We are in the business of acquiring direct and indirect interests in
apartment properties such as the properties owned by your partnership. Our offer
provides us with an opportunity to increase our ownership interest in your
partnership's properties while providing you and other investors with an
opportunity to liquidate your current investment.
On October 1, 1998, AIMCO merged (the "Insignia Merger") with Insignia
Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia"). As a result of the Insignia Merger, AIMCO
acquired approximately 51% of the outstanding common shares of beneficial
interest of Insignia Properties Trust ("IPT"). The general partner of your
partnership is a wholly owned subsidiary of IPT. Through the Insignia Merger,
AIMCO also acquired a majority ownership interest in the entity that manages the
properties owned by your partnership. On October 31, 1998, IPT and AIMCO entered
into an agreement and plan of merger, dated as of October 1, 1998, pursuant to
which IPT merged with AIMCO on February 26, 1999. Together with its
subsidiaries, AIMCO currently owns, in the aggregate, approximately 20.69% of
the outstanding limited partnership units of your partnership.
During our negotiations with Insignia in early 1998, we decided that if
the merger with Insignia were consummated, we could also benefit from making
offers for limited partnership interests of some of the limited partnerships
formerly controlled or managed by Insignia (the "Insignia Partnerships"). Such
offers would provide liquidity for the limited partners of the Insignia
Partnerships, and would provide AIMCO Properties, L.P. with a larger asset and
capital base and increased diversification. While some of the Insignia
Partnerships are public partnerships and information is publicly available on
such partnerships for weighing the benefits of making a tender offer, many of
the partnerships are private partnerships and information about such
partnerships comes principally from the general partner. Our control of the
general partner makes it possible for us to obtain access to such information.
Further, such control also means that we control the operations of the
partnerships and their properties. Insignia did not propose that we conduct such
tender offers, rather we initiated the offers on our own. As of the date of this
offering, AIMCO Properties, L.P. has made offers to approximately 90 of the
Insignia Partnerships, including your partnership.
THE LAWSUIT AND THE PROPOSED SETTLEMENT
This Litigation Settlement Offer is being made as part of a proposed
settlement of a class action and derivative lawsuit pending in the Superior
Court of the State of California, County of San Mateo, entitled Nuanes et al. v.
Insignia Financial Group, Inc., et al., Case No. 404228, brought on behalf of
limited partners in your partnership and other partnerships formerly managed by
Insignia Financial Group, Inc., and/or its affiliates.
The Lawsuit. On March 24, 1998, certain persons claiming to own limited
partner interests in certain of the limited partnerships for which our
subsidiaries act as general partner (including your partnership) filed the
purported class and derivative action against Insignia Financial Group, Inc.,
AIMCO, the general partners of the partnerships, certain persons and entities
who purportedly formerly controlled the general partners, and additional
entities affiliated with and individuals who are officers, directors and/or
principals of several of the defendants. The complaint contains allegations
that, among other things, (i) the defendants breached fiduciary duties owed to
the plaintiffs, or aided and abetted in those purported breaches, by selling or
agreeing to sell their "fiduciary positions" as stockholders, officers and
directors of the general partners for a profit and retaining said profit rather
than distributing it to the plaintiffs; (ii) the defendants breached fiduciary
duties, or aided and abetted in those purported breaches, by mismanaging the
partnerships and misappropriating assets of the partnerships by (a) manipulating
the operations of the partnerships to depress the trading price of limited
partnership units of the partnerships; (b) coercing and fraudulently inducing
unitholders to sell units to certain of the defendants at depressed prices; and
(c) using the voting control obtained by purchasing units at depressed prices to
entrench certain of the defendants' positions of control over the partnerships;
and (iii) the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to the plaintiffs by
(a) selling assets of the partnerships such as mailing lists of unitholders and
(b) causing the general partners to enter into exclusive arrangements with their
affiliates to sell goods and services to the general partners, the unitholders
and tenants of properties owned by the partnerships. The complaint also alleges
that the foregoing allegations constitute violations of various California
securities, corporate and partnership statutes, as well as conversion and common
law fraud. The complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, an
injunction
15
<PAGE> 19
blocking the sale of control of the general partners and a court order directing
the defendants to discharge their fiduciary duties to the plaintiffs. On June
25, 1998, the defendants filed motions seeking dismissal of the action. In lieu
of responding to the motion, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint. On October
14, 1998, the AIMCO and Insignia defendants filed demurrers to the amended
complaint. The demurrers (which are requests to dismiss the action as a matter
of law) were heard on February 8, 1999, but no decision has been reached by the
Court.
Pending decision on defendants' motions, the parties began arm's length
negotiations relating to a potential settlement of the lawsuit. The parties
reached agreement upon the principal terms of the settlement by executing
Memorandum of Understanding on October 22, 1999. On November 1, 1999, the
parties executed a Stipulation of Settlement setting forth the terms of the
settlement.
The settlement was reached only after conducting substantial discovery in
the lawsuit. The discovery included settlement class counsel inspecting various
documents produced by the defendants, including copies of the operative
partnership agreements for each of the partnerships. Settlement class counsel
also reviewed and analyzed publicly-available information and performed other
factual investigations. In addition, settlement class counsel also investigated
and researched the law applicable to their claims and to the defenses raised by
the defendants.
Based on their investigation of the facts and the applicable law,
plaintiff settlement class counsel and their clients have concluded that it is
in the best interests of the members of the settlement class and the
partnerships that the action be settled on the terms and conditions set forth in
the Stipulation. The plaintiff and settlement class counsel have reached their
conclusion concerning the fairness of the settlement after considering the
factual and legal issues in the lawsuit, the risks and uncertainties of
continued litigation, the expense, difficulties and delays inherent in
prosecuting the lawsuit through trial and through any appeals that might be
taken, and the likelihood of success at trial, including the fact that even if
the plaintiff ultimately prevailed on their claims, there can be no assurance
that the settlement class members or the partnerships would receive any greater
recovery than they will receive from the settlement embodied in the Stipulation.
The defendants have concluded that it is in their best interests that the
lawsuit be settled on the terms and conditions set forth in the Stipulation. The
defendants have reached this conclusion after considering the legal and factual
issues in the lawsuit, the substantial benefits in final resolution of the
lawsuit, the risks and uncertainties of continued litigation, and the expenses
associated with, and difficulties and delays inherent in, defending such
litigation through trial and any appeals that might be taken.
The proposed settlement of the lawsuit is the product of good faith, arm's
length negotiations between settlement class counsel and counsel for the
defendants. These negotiations resulted in the settlement set forth in the
Stipulation.
Terms of the Settlement. Pursuant to the Stipulation, not later than 30
days after final approval of the settlement, we are obligated to commence offers
to purchase the outstanding units of substantially all of the partnerships
subject to the lawsuit. This offer is being made to satisfy the requirements of
the Stipulation.
The price offered for your units in the partnership is a key provision of
the settlement. Approximately 5% of our offer price represents a payment from a
settlement fund that we have established, which you will be entitled to receive
if we receive court approval and you do not request exclusion from the
settlement class. The offer price per unit reflects an amount to be paid to
tendering unitholders after taking into account amounts for estimated attorney's
fees, costs, and expenses which class counsel is permitted to seek in connection
with the settlement.
The Stipulation provides that the price per unit to be paid in the offer
for each partnership (without taking into account the amount paid from the
settlement fund) will be based upon an estimate of the liquidation value of the
limited partners' interest in the equity of such partnership, divided by the
number of units in such partnership. The estimated liquidation value of each
partnership is equal to the estimated fair market value of the partnership's
properties and other assets, plus any cash or cash equivalents owned by the
partnership and any receivables payable to the partnership, less (i) all
mortgage debt and other debt, payables and obligations of the partnership,
together with accrued interest and any applicable pre-payment or similar
penalties, (ii) all fees or other liabilities that would be payable by the
partnership in the event of a sale of its assets and liquidation of the
partnership, including, but not limited to, any disposition or similar fees,
16
<PAGE> 20
(iii) accounts payable, accrued expenses and other existing liabilities, (iv) an
estimate of the applicable "transaction costs" that would be paid in a
hypothetical liquidation in an amount equal to a percentage of the estimated
gross fair market valuation of the partnership's properties that is equal to, or
less than, five (5%) percent of such estimated value, (v) extraordinary capital
expenditures and deferred maintenance expenditures that have been budgeted to be
or actually are paid by the partnership in the fiscal year in which the tender
offer is commenced, (vi) the amount of the partnership's cash reserves that are
distributed to unitholders after determination of the tender offer prices, but
prior to the closing of any particular tender offer, and (vii) the amount of the
hypothetical liquidation proceeds that would be required to be allocated to the
general partner, if any. The Stipulation provides that the estimated fair market
value of each partnership's properties is to be determined, in good faith, by
the general partner of the partnership, calculating for each residential
property net operating income for each property, less a per-apartment unit
reserve in an amount, if any, that is deemed appropriate and acceptable to an
independent appraiser and taking into account all income and expenses of such
property, including without limitation, general and administrative expenses,
where deemed appropriate, and thereafter applying a capitalization rate. The
general partner is to consider and take into account the valuations of the
properties contained in any appraisals of the properties that have been prepared
since January 1996 by persons other than the general partner and the prices
contained in any offers to purchase properties that were received by the general
partner since January 1997. For commercial properties, the fair market value
will be determined by the general partner, in good faith after considering any
current offers to purchase or contracts for sale of the property received for
such properties, or by using the discounted cash flow method of evaluating
commercial properties if no such offers have been received or contracts have
been entered into.
The Stipulation provides that the general partner of your partnership
retain Robert A. Stanger & Co., Inc. as an independent valuation firm to render
an opinion that our offer price (without taking into account the amount paid
from the settlement fund) is fair from a financial point of view to the holders
of the units. The Stipulation also provides that in determining whether each of
the tender offer prices is fair from a financial point of view, Stanger is
expressly directed to consider the following factors: (i) any and all appraisals
of the value of the partnership, its properties or any of its other assets that
have been prepared since January 1996, (ii) any offers to purchase properties
that have been received by the general partner since January 1997, and (iii) all
other factors that the independent appraiser deems relevant. The reasonable fees
of, and reimbursement of expenses incurred by, the independent appraiser in
connection with the settlement will be paid by the partnerships.
See"-Stanger Analysis."
In accordance with the Stipulation, we have established a settlement fund
equal to 6% of the aggregate purchase price of all units sought in this offer.
If the Court finally approves the settlement and you tender units in this offer
and do not opt out of the settlement, we will make a payment to you from the
settlement fund. The payment from the settlement fund represents approximately
5% of our offer price. We will also pay settlement class counsel an amount equal
to less than 1% of the price of the units we purchase from you in this offer.
We are not required to pay more than $50 million in cash (exclusive of
amounts payable out of the settlement fund), in the aggregate, to purchase units
in this offer and the other offers made as part of the settlement. We may waive
or increase this $50 million cash limitation in our sole and absolute
discretion, in which case we will so notify you.
Under the Stipulation, AIMCO or the AIMCO operating partnership is to
conduct an additional tender offer for the same partnerships no later than
eighteen months after the effective date of the settlement upon the same terms
and conditions set forth above. In these tender offers, we will not be required
to pay more than $50 million in cash (exclusive of amounts payable out of the
settlement fund), but we may increase such amount in our sole and absolute
discretion. The $50 million cash limit for these latter tender offers is in
addition to the $50 million cash limit applicable to this tender offer and the
other tender offers being made concurrently under the Stipulation. Further, if
you tender units in the offer contemplated by this paragraph and if you did not
opt out of the settlement class, the Stipulation provides that, subject to court
approval, we will pay you an additional amount estimated at 5.7% of the offer
price per unit in this offer (less the amount paid from the settlement fund)
times the number of units we purchased from you in the additional offer and we
will pay settlement class counsel an amount estimated at 0.3% of the offer price
of the units in this offer (less the amount paid from the settlement fund) times
the number of units we purchase from you in the additional offer.
Subject to court approval, under the Stipulation, settlement class counsel
will seek an order awarding appropriate attorneys' fees and the reimbursement of
all reasonable expenses incurred in the lawsuit of up to $2 million, plus the
17
<PAGE> 21
amounts payable to settlement class counsel provided for in the previous two
paragraphs. Any such amounts allowed by the Court to the settlement class
counsel will be paid by 49 partnerships on a pro rata basis based upon the
estimated liquidation value of the partnerships, except for the amounts payable
to settlement class counsel provided for in the previous two paragraphs.
Under the Stipulation, the partnerships and the members of the settlement
class will release the defendants from claims related to the lawsuit and the
Stipulation.
In addition, under the Stipulation, AIMCO and its affiliates will agree to
certain other restrictions on the operation of your partnership, as described in
"The Offer -- Section 14. Voting Power."
Court Approval of the Settlement. While preliminary court approval has
been obtained, the terms and conditions of the settlement are subject to final
court approval. However, we are making this offer prior to obtaining such court
approval because obtaining court approval may take several months. If more than
$50 million of units are tendered in this and the other offers, and we do not
purchase all of such units, our parent corporation, Apartment Investment and
Management Company, a New York Stock Exchange-listed company, will seek an
exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 under
Section 3(a)(10) of such Act in order to offer shares of its stock in exchange
for your units tendered that exceed the $50 million cash limit. Section 3(a)(10)
provides such an exemption for the exchange of securities where the terms and
conditions of the issuance and exchange are approved by a court after a hearing
upon the fairness of such terms and conditions at which all persons to whom it
is proposed to issue such securities in the exchange have an opportunity to
appear. If the Section 3(a)(10) exemption is not available, AIMCO may register
the shares.
DETERMINATION OF OFFER PRICE
Valuation of Units. In accordance with the Stipulation, we determined our
offer price by estimating the estimated liquidation value of your partnership.
First, we estimated the value of each property owned by your partnership. For
the residential properties, we used the direct capitalization method. This
method involves applying a capitalization rate to your partnership's annual
property income. A capitalization rate is a percentage (rate of return),
commonly applied by purchasers of residential real estate to property income to
determine the present value of income property. The lower the capitalization
rate utilized the higher the value produced, and the higher the capitalization
rate utilized the lower the value produced. We annualized your partnership's
property income for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. Our method for
selecting a capitalization rate begins with each property being assigned a
location and condition rating (e.g., "A" for excellent, "B" for good, "C" for
fair, and "D" for poor). We then adjust the capitalization rate based on whether
the property's mortgage debt bears interest at a rate above or below 7.5% per
annum. Generally, for every 0.5% in excess of 8%, the capitalization rate would
be increased by 0.25%. The evaluation of a property's location and condition,
and the determination of an appropriate capitalization rate for a property, is
subjective in nature, and others evaluating the same property might use a
different capitalization rate and derive a different property value.
Property income is the difference between the revenues from the property
and related costs and expenses, excluding income derived from sources other than
its regular activities and before income deductions. Income deductions include
interest, income taxes, prior-year adjustments, charges to reserves, write-off
of intangibles, adjustments arising from major changes in accounting methods and
other material and nonrecurring items. In this respect, property income differs
from net income disclosed in the partnership's financial statements, which does
not exclude these income sources and deductions. The following is a
reconciliation of your partnership's annualized property income to your
partnership's annualized net income based upon the nine month period ended
September 30, 1999:
<TABLE>

Although the direct capitalization method is a widely accepted way of
valuing real estate, there are a number of other methods available to value real
estate, each of which may result in different valuations of a property. Further,
in applying the direct capitalization method, others may make different
assumptions and obtain different results. The proceeds that you would receive if
you sold your units to someone else or if your partnership were actually
liquidated might be higher than our offer price. We determined our offer price
as follows:
o First, we estimated the value of each property owned by your
partnership. We valued properties using the direct capitalization
method. We selected capitalization rates based on our experience
in valuing similar properties. The lower the capitalization rate
applied to a property's income, the higher its value. We
considered local market sales information for comparable
properties, estimated actual capitalization rates (property
income less capital reserves divided by sales price) and then
evaluated each property in light of its relative competitive
position, taking into account property location, occupancy rate,
overall property condition and other relevant factors. We believe
that arms-length purchasers would base their purchase offers on
capitalization rates comparable to those used by us, however
there is no single correct capitalization rate and others might
use different rates. We annualized the property income for the
first nine months of 1999 and then divided such amount by the
property's capitalization rate to derive an estimated gross
property value.

</TABLE>
* Property income for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 has been
annualized by multiplying by 1.33. Actual 1999 property income could be higher
or lower.
o Second, we calculated the value of the equity of your partnership
by adding to the aggregate gross property value of all properties
owned by your partnership, the value of the non-real estate
assets of your partnership, and deducting the liabilities of your
partnership, including mortgage debt and debt owed by your
partnership to its general partner (which is our subsidiary) or
its affiliates. Pursuant to the Stipulation ,we deducted from
this value certain other costs, including required capital
expenditures, deferred maintenance, closing costs, the cost of
the Stanger opinion for your partnership and your partnership's
share of the estimated legal fees payable to settlement class
counsel, to derive a net equity value for your partnership of
$10,939,282. Closing costs include, but are not limited to legal
and accounting fees, real property transfer taxes, title and
escrow costs and broker's fees.
o Third, using this net equity value, we determined the proceeds
that would be paid to holders of units in the event of a
liquidation of your partnership, based on the terms of your
partnership's agreement of limited partnership. Accordingly,
97.00% of the estimated liquidation proceeds are assumed to be
distributed to holders of units. Our offer price represents the
per unit liquidation proceeds determined in this manner:

COMPARISON OF CONSIDERATION TO ALTERNATIVE CONSIDERATION
To assist holders of units in evaluating the offer, your general partner
(which is our subsidiary) has attempted to compare the offer price against: (a)
prices at which the units have sold in the secondary market; (b) estimates of
the value of the units on a liquidation basis; (c) your general partner's
estimate of net asset value; and (d) an affiliate's estimate of net liquidation
value. The general partner of your partnership believes that analyzing the
alternatives in terms of estimated value, based upon currently available data
and, where appropriate, reasonable assumptions made in good faith, establishes a
reasonable framework for comparing alternatives. Since the value of the
consideration for alternatives to the offer is dependent upon varying market
conditions, no assurance can be given that the estimated values reflect the
range of possible values.
The results of these comparative analyses are summarized in the chart
below. You should bear in mind that the estimated values assigned to the
alternative consideration (except historic market and tender offer prices) are
based on a variety of assumptions that have been made by us. These assumptions
relate to, among other things: the operating results, if any, since September
30, 1999, as to income and expenses of each property, other projected amounts
and the capitalization rates that may be used by prospective buyers if your
partnership assets were to be liquidated.
In addition, these estimates are based upon certain information available
to your general partner (which is our subsidiary), and no assurance can be given
that the same conditions analyzed by us in arriving at the estimates of value
will not change. The assumptions used have been determined by the general
partner of your partnership in good faith, and, where appropriate, are based
upon current and historical information regarding your partnership and current
real estate markets, and have been highlighted below to the extent critical to
the conclusions of the general partner of your partnership. Actual results may
vary from those set forth below based on numerous factors, including interest
rate fluctuations, tax law changes, supply and demand for similar apartment
properties, the manner in which your partnership's properties are sold and
changes in availability of capital to finance acquisitions of apartment
properties.
Under your partnership's agreement of limited partnership, the term of the
partnership will continue until December 31, 2010 unless sooner terminated as
provided in the agreement or by law. Limited partners could, as an alternative
to tendering their units, take a variety of possible actions, including voting
to liquidate the partnership or
20
<PAGE> 24
amending the agreement of limited partnership to authorize limited partners to
cause the partnership to merge with another entity or engage in a "roll-up" or
similar transaction.

Prior Tender Offers. In our July 23, 1999 tender offer, the original offer
price of $225 per unit, ultimately increased to $410 per unit, was determined
based upon our calculation of the liquidation value of your partnership. Such
offer price was based on (i) your partnership's property income for each
property for the year ended December 31, 1998, (ii) our estimate of appropriate
capitalization rates for your partnership's properties, (iii) the then current
assets of your partnership, (iv) estimated costs and fees (including applicable
state sales taxes) for a sale on the property, and winding up of your
partnership, (v) estimated cost of deferred maintenance, (vi) the mortgages for
the properties, (vii) your partnership's other liabilities and (viii) the
percentage ownership interests of the limited partners in your partnership.
Pursuant to such offer and thereafter, we purchased 853.50 units at $410 per
unit.
In September 1999, ERP Operating Limited Partnership, a third party
unaffiliated with AIMCO, commenced a tender offer to purchase up to 26,776 units
(which represents 100% of the units outstanding) at a purchase price equal to
$385 per unit, which was ultimately increased to $425 per unit.
Prior to the Insignia Merger, tender offers had been made to acquire units
of your partnership. On December 15, 1998, Cooper River Properties, L.L.C., then
an affiliate of Insignia and now our affiliate, commenced a tender offer
pursuant to which it acquired 3,583 units (representing approximately 13.38% of
the number outstanding) at a cash purchase price of $324 per unit.
We are aware that tender offers may have been made by unaffiliated third
parties to acquire units in your partnership in exchange for cash. We are
unaware of the amounts offered, terms, tendering parties or number of units
involved in these tender offers. In connection with tender offers made by
Insignia affiliates with respect to partnerships for which we are making offers,
some limited partners filed a lawsuit as described in "-The Lawsuit and the
Proposed Settlement." We are not aware of any merger, consolidation or other
combination involving any of the Insignia Partnerships, or any acquisitions of
any of such partnerships or a material amount of the assets of such
partnerships.
Prices on Secondary Market. Secondary market sales information is not a
reliable measure of value because of the lack of any known trades. At present,
privately negotiated sales and sales through intermediaries are the only means
which may be available to a limited partner to liquidate an investment in units
(other than our offer) because the units are not listed or traded on any
exchange or quoted on NASDAQ, on the Electronic Bulletin Board, or in "pink
sheets." Secondary sales activity for the units, including privately negotiated
sales, has been limited and sporadic.
Although the general partner had requested and sometimes received
information on the prices at which units are sold, it does not regularly receive
or maintain information regarding the bid or asked quotations of secondary
market
21
<PAGE> 25
makers, if any. The prices in the table below are based solely on information
provided to the general partner by sellers and buyers of units transferred in
sale transactions (i.e., excluding transactions believed to result from the
death of a limited partner, rollover to an IRA account, establishment of a
trust, trustee to trustee transfers, termination of a benefit plan,
distributions from a qualified or nonqualified plan, uniform gifts to minors,
abandonment of units or similar non-sale transactions). The transfer paperwork
submitted to the general partner often did not include the requested price
information or contains conflicting information as to the actual sales price.
Sale prices not reported or disclosed could exceed the reported prices. Set
forth in the table below are the high and low sales prices of units for the
quarterly periods from January 1, 1996 to September 30, 1998, as reported by
your general partner:

Estimated Liquidation Proceeds. Liquidation value is a measure of the
price at which the assets of your partnership would sell if disposed of in an
arms-length transaction between a willing buyer and your partnership, each
having access to relevant information regarding the historical revenues and
expenses of the business. Your general partner (which is our subsidiary)
estimated the liquidation value of units using the same direct capitalization
method and assumptions as we did in valuing the units for the offer price. The
liquidation analysis assumes that your partnership's properties are sold to an
independent third-party buyer at the current property value and that other
balance sheet assets (excluding amortizing assets) and liabilities of your
partnership are sold at their book value, and that the net proceeds of sale are
allocated to your partners in accordance with your partnership's agreement of
limited partnership.
The liquidation analysis assumes that the assets of your partnership are
sold in a single transaction. Should the assets be liquidated over time, even at
prices equal to those projected, distributions to limited partners from cash
flow from operations might be reduced because your partnership's fixed costs,
such as general and administrative expenses, are not proportionately reduced
with the liquidation of assets. However, for simplification purposes, the sales
of the assets are assumed to occur concurrently. The liquidation analysis
assumes that the assets are disposed of in an orderly manner and are not sold in
forced or distressed sales where sellers might be expected to dispose of their
interests at substantial discounts to their actual fair market value.
General Partner's Estimates of Net Asset Value. Your general partner
(which is our subsidiary) prepared an estimate of your partnership's net asset
value per unit in connection with an offer to purchase up to 13.38% of the
outstanding units commenced by an unaffiliated party in 1998. That estimate of
your partnership's net asset value per unit as of June 30, 1998 was $552. This
estimated net asset value is based on a hypothetical sale of the partnership's
properties and the distribution to the limited partners and the general partner
of the gross proceeds of such sales, net of related indebtedness, together with
the cash, proceeds from temporary investments, and all other assets that are
believed to have liquidation value, after provision in full for all of the other
known liabilities of your partnership. This net asset value does not take into
account (i) timing considerations, (ii) costs associated with winding up the
partnership, (iii) the distribution paid by your partnership of $14.49 per unit
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998, or (iv) $801,643 in deferred
maintenance costs. Therefore, we believe that this estimate of net asset value
per unit does not necessarily represent either the fair market value of a unit
or the amount a limited partner reasonably could expect to receive if the
partnership's properties were sold and the partnership was liquidated. For this
reason, we considered this net asset value estimate to be less meaningful in
determining the offer price than our valuation analysis described above.
Affiliate's Estimate of Net Liquidation Value. An affiliate of your
general partner which is now an affiliate of ours, prepared an estimate of your
partnership's net liquidation value per unit in connection with a tender offer
to purchase units for $375 each which closed in September, 1998. That estimate
of your partnership's net liquidation value per unit as of June 30, 1998 was
$535.29. This estimated net liquidation value is based on the an income
capitalization approached similar to the one we used, adjusted for your
partnership's other assets and liabilities (excluding prepaid and deferred
expenses and security deposits). Four percent was then deducted from the
resulting amount to cover the estimated costs of selling the properties. This
final amount was then divided by the number of units outstanding to obtain the
$535.29 per unit. While this value is higher than our offer price per unit,
because different income and capitalization rates were used and we believe that
the income capitalization amounts used overstate the value of the properties.
Stanger's Estimate of Net Asset Value, Going Concern Value and Liquidation
Value. In rendering its opinion set forth as Annex I hereto, Stanger
independently estimated your partnership's net asset value to be $454 per unit,
its going concern value to be $411 per unit and its liquidation value to be $433
per unit. For an explanation of how Stanger determined such values see
"--Stanger Analysis -- Summary of Reviews -- Comparison of Offer Price To
Liquidation Value, Going Concern Value and Secondary Market Prices."

ALLOCATION OF CONSIDERATION
Pursuant to the Stipulation, we have deducted from the estimated net
valuation of your partnership an amount allocated to the general partner
pursuant to your partnership's agreement of limited partnership as if your
partnership was being liquidated at the current time.
STANGER ANALYSIS
Pursuant to the Stipulation, we engaged Robert A. Stanger & Co., Inc., an
independent investment banking firm, to conduct an analysis and to render an
opinion (the "Fairness Opinion") as to whether the offer price (excluding the
settlement fund payment) for the units is fair, from a financial point of view,
to the unitholders. We selected Stanger because of its experience in providing
similar services to other parties in connection with real estate merger and sale
transactions and Stanger's experience and reputation in connection with real
estate partnerships and real estate assets. No other investment banking firm was
engaged to provide any report, analysis or opinion relating to the fairness of
our offer.
Stanger has advised us that, subject to the assumptions, limitations and
qualifications contained in its Fairness Opinion, the offer price (excluding the
settlement fund payment) for the units is fair, from a financial point of view,
to the unitholders. We determined the offer price (excluding the settlement fund
payment), and Stanger did not, and was not requested to, make any
recommendations as to the form or amount of consideration to be paid in
connection with the offer.
The full text of the Fairness Opinion, which contains a description of the
matters considered and the assumptions, limitations and qualifications made, is
set forth as Annex I hereto and should be read in its entirety. Stanger has
advised us that the description of Stanger's analysis contained herein describes
the material portions of Stanger's review. The summary set forth herein does not
purport to be a complete description of the review performed by Stanger in
rendering the Fairness Opinion. Arriving at a fairness opinion is a complex
process not necessarily susceptible to partial analysis or amenable to summary
description.
We imposed no conditions or limitations on the scope of Stanger's
investigation or with respect to the methods and procedures to be followed in
arriving at the fairness opinion. See "-Assumptions, Limitations and
Qualification." We have agreed to indemnify Stanger against any losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses to which Stanger may be subject, under any
applicable federal or state law, including federal and state securities laws,
arising out of Stanger's engagement to prepare and deliver the Fairness Opinion.
Experience of Stanger. Since its founding in 1978, Stanger and its
affiliates have provided information, research, investment banking and
consulting services to clients located throughout the United States, including
major NYSE member firms, insurance companies and over seventy companies engaged
in the management and operation of partnerships and real estate investment
trusts. The investment banking activities of Stanger include financial advisory
and fairness opinion services, asset and securities valuations, industry and
company research and analysis, litigation support and expert witness services,
and due diligence investigations in connection with both publicly registered and
privately placed securities transactions.
Stanger, as part of its investment banking business, is regularly engaged
in the valuation of businesses and their securities in connection with mergers,
acquisitions, reorganizations and for estate, tax, corporate and other purposes.
Stanger's valuation practice principally involves partnerships, partnership
securities and the assets typically held through partnerships, such as real
estate, oil and gas reserves, cable television systems and equipment leasing
assets. Stanger was selected because of its experience and reputation in
connection with real estate partnerships, real estate assets and mergers and
acquisitions.
Summary of Materials Considered. In the course of Stanger's analysis to
render its opinion, Stanger: (i) reviewed a draft of the Offer to Purchase
related to the offer in substantially the form which will be distributed; (ii)
24
<PAGE> 28
reviewed your partnership's audited financial statements for the years ended
December 31, 1997 and 1998, and its unaudited financial statements for the
period ended September 30, 1999, which your partnership's management has
indicated to be the most current available financial statements at the time for
your partnership; (iii) reviewed descriptive information concerning your
partnership's real estate assets (the "property") provided by management,
including location, number of units and unit mix or square footage, age, and
amenities; (iv) reviewed summary historical operating statements for your
partnership's property for 1997, 1998 and 1999; (v) reviewed operating budgets
for your partnership's property for 1999, as prepared by management; (vi)
reviewed information prepared by management relating to any debt encumbering
your partnership's property; (vii) reviewed information regarding market rental
rates and conditions for similar properties in the general market area of your
partnership's property and other information relating to acquisition criteria
for similar properties; (viii) reviewed internal financial and forecast analyses
prepared by your partnership of the estimated current net liquidation value of
your partnership; and (ix) conducted other studies, analysis and inquiries as
Stanger deemed appropriate.
A summary of the operating budgets per property for the year ended
December 31, 1999, which was supplied by your partnership to Stanger, is as
follows:
FISCAL 1999 OPERATING BUDGET
DAVIDSON INCOME REAL ESTATE, L.P.
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
NORTHSPRINGS LAKESIDE BEXLEY HOUSE COVINGTON PT
------------ ---------- ------------ ------------
<S> <C> <C> <C> <C>
Total Revenues 1,152,656 1,403,531 821,074 1,581,729
Operating Expenses (530,294) (585,642) (429,496) (730,934)
------------ ---------- ------------ ------------
Net Operating Income Before
Replacement Reserves 622,362 817,889 391,578 850,795
</TABLE>
The above budget, at the time it was made, was forward-looking information
developed by the general partner of your partnership. Therefore, the budget was
dependent upon future events with respect to the ability of your partnership to
meet such budget. The budget incorporated various assumptions including, but not
limited to, revenue (including occupancy rates), various operating expenses,
general and administrative expenses, capital expenditures, and working capital
levels. While the general partner deemed such budget to be reasonable and valid
at the date made, there is no assurance that the assumed facts will be validated
or that the budgeted results will actually occur. Any estimate of the future
performance of a business, such as your partnership's business, is
forward-looking and based on assumptions some of which inevitably will prove to
be incorrect.
The budget amounts provided above are figures that were not computed in
accordance with GAAP. In particular, items that are categorized as capital
expenditures for purposes of preparing the operating budget are often
re-categorized as expenses when the financial statements are audited and
presented in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, the summary operating budget
presented for fiscal 1999 should not necessarily be considered as indicative of
what the audited operating results for fiscal 1999 will be.
In addition, Stanger discussed with management of your partnership and
AIMCO the market conditions for the property, conditions in the market for
sales/acquisitions of properties similar to that owned by your partnership,
historical, current and projected operations and performance of your
partnership's property and your partnership, the physical condition of your
partnership's property including any deferred maintenance, and other factors
influencing value of your partnership's property and your partnership. Stanger
also performed site inspections of your partnership's property, reviewed local
real estate market conditions, and discussed with property management personnel
conditions in local apartment rental markets and market conditions for sales and
acquisitions of properties similar to your partnership's property.

Summary of Reviews. The following is a summary of the material reviews
conducted by Stanger in connection with and in support of its Fairness Opinion.
The summary of the opinion and reviews of Stanger set forth in herein is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such opinion.
Property Evaluation. In preparing its Fairness Opinion, Stanger performed
a site inspection of your partnership's property during the fourth quarter of
1998. In the course of the site visit, the physical facilities of your
partnership's property were observed, current rental and occupancy information
was obtained, current local market conditions were reviewed, similar competing
properties were identified, and local property management personnel were
interviewed concerning your partnership's property and local market conditions.
Stanger also reviewed and relied upon information provided by your partnership
and AIMCO, including, but not limited to, financial schedules of historical and
current rental rates, occupancies, income, expenses, reserve requirements, cash
flow and related financial information; property descriptive information,
including unit mix or square footage; and information relating to the condition
of the property, including any deferred maintenance, capital budgets, status of
ongoing or newly planned property additions, reconfigurations, improvements and
other factors affecting the physical condition of the property improvements.
Stanger also reviewed historical operating statements for your
partnership's property for 1997, 1998 and for the nine month period ending
September 30, 1999, the operating budget for 1999, as prepared management of
your partnership, and discussed with management the current and anticipated
operating results of your partnership's property.
In addition, Stanger interviewed management personnel of your partnership
and AIMCO. Such interviews included discussions of conditions in the local
market, economic and development trends affecting your partnership's property,
historical and budgeted operating revenues and expenses and occupancies and the
physical condition of your partnership's property (including any deferred
maintenance and other factors affecting the physical condition of the
improvements), projected capital expenditures and building improvements, the
terms of existing debt encumbering your partnership's property, and expectations
of management regarding operating results of your partnership's property.
Stanger also reviewed the acquisition criteria used by owners and
investors in the type of real estate owned by your partnership, utilizing
available published information and information derived from interviews
conducted by Stanger with various real estate owners and investors.
Comparison of Offer Price. Stanger observed that the offer price (excluding the
settlement fund payment) of $409 per unit is equal to management's estimate of
liquidation value.
In addition to the above analysis, Stanger prepared an independent
estimate of net asset value, going concern value and liquidation value per unit.
Stanger has advised AIMCO that Stanger's estimates of net asset value, going
concern value and liquidation value are based upon Stanger's independent
estimate of property income, a direct capitalization rate range of 9.75% to
10.0%, transaction costs of 3% to 5%, growth rates of 3% and a terminal
capitalization rate range of 10.25% to 10.5%. Stanger has advised us that the
direct capitalization rate represents Stanger's estimate of the capitalization
rate applicable to its estimate of property income and is based upon Stanger's
independent estimate of the direct capitalization rate for such property based
upon such property's age, condition and location. Stanger further advised us
that the terminal capitalization rate is the capitalization rate utilized in
Stanger's going concern value estimate which is applied to Stanger's estimate of
property income in the eleventh year to establish the value of the property at
the end of the tenth year. Stanger has advised us that Stanger estimated the
terminal capitalization rate at a 50 basis point premium to the direct
capitalization rate estimate for each property. Stanger utilized deferred
maintenance estimates derived from the Adjusters International, Inc. reports in
the calculation of net asset value, going concern value and liquidation value.
Stanger advised us that Stanger adjusted its estimate of net asset value and
liquidation value for the cost of above market debt using an 8% interest rate.
With respect to the going concern value estimate prepared by Stanger, Stanger
advised AIMCO that a ten-year projection period and a discount rate of 17.5% was
utilized. Such discount rate reflects the risk associated with real estate,
leverage and a limited partnership investment. The 17.5% discount rate was based
upon the property's estimated internal rate of return derived from the
discounted cash flow analysis, (12.5% as described above), plus a premium
reflecting the additional risk associated with mortgage debt equal to more than
50% of property value. Stanger's estimates were based in part upon information
provided by us. Stanger relied upon the deferred maintenance estimates, property
descriptions, unit
26
<PAGE> 30
configurations, allocation among partners, and other data provided by us.
Stanger's analyses were based on balance sheet data as of September 30, 1999.
Stanger's estimate of net asset value, going concern value and liquidation value
per unit were $454, $411 and $433 representing premiums to the offer price
(excluding the settlement fund payment) of 11 %, .5 % and 6%. See "-Comparison
of Consideration to Alternative Consideration."
Stanger observed that we are tendering for units of limited partnership
interest in the Partnership and that such units represent a minority interest in
the Partnership. Additionally, Stanger observed that the Partnership is not
listed on any established securities exchange but does trade infrequently in an
informal secondary market. Stanger has advised the Partnership that during the
past 5 years, Stanger has reviewed the secondary market trading activity of more
than 500 partnerships involving more than 31,500 transactions and has compared
the price derived in such transactions to the reported net asset value of such
Partnerships where such data was reported. Stanger observed average discounts
for each of the five year periods ranging from 23.6% to 28.1% for actively
traded partnerships. Stanger observed that the offer price (excluding the
settlement fund reserve) represents a 10% discount to Stanger's estimate of net
asset value.
Conclusions. Stanger concluded, based upon its analysis of the foregoing
and the assumptions, qualifications and limitations stated below, as of the date
of the Fairness Opinion, that the offer price (excluding the settlement fund
payment) to be paid for the units in connection with the offer is fair to the
unitholders from a financial point of view. Stanger has rendered similar
fairness opinions with regard to certain other tender offers being made by us.
Stanger rendered the opinions only as to the individual fairness of the offer
price (excluding the settlement fund payment) in each in such tender offer. The
Fairness Opinion does not address the fairness of all possible acquisitions of
interests in your partnership. In addition, the Fairness Opinion will not be
revised to reflect the actual participation in the offer.
Assumptions, Limitations and Qualifications. In rendering the Fairness
Opinion, Stanger relied upon and assumed, without independent verification, the
accuracy and completeness of all financial information and data, and all other
reports and information contained herein or that were provided, made available,
or otherwise communicated to Stanger by your partnership, AIMCO, or the
management of the partnership's property. Stanger has not performed an
independent appraisal, engineering study or environmental study of the assets
and liabilities of your partnership. Stanger relied upon the representations of
your partnership and AIMCO concerning, among other things, any environmental
liabilities, deferred maintenance and estimated capital expenditure and
replacement reserve requirements, the determination and valuation of non-real
estate assets and liabilities of your partnership, the allocation of your
partnership's net values between your general partner (which is our subsidiary)
and limited partners of your partnership, the terms and conditions of any debt
encumbering the partnership's property, and the transaction costs and fees
associated with a sale of the property. Stanger also relied upon the assurance
of your partnership, AIMCO, and the management of the partnership's property
that any financial statements, budgets, pro forma statements, projections,
capital expenditure estimates, debt, value estimates and other information
contained herein or provided or communicated to Stanger were reasonably prepared
and adjusted on bases consistent with actual historical experience, are
consistent with the terms of your partnership's agreement of limited
partnership, and reflect the best currently available estimates and good faith
judgments; that no material changes have occurred in the value of the
partnership's property or other balance sheet assets and liabilities or other
information reviewed between the date of such information provided and the date
of the Fairness Opinion; that your partnership, AIMCO, and the management of the
partnership's property are not aware of any information or facts that would
cause the information supplied to Stanger to be incomplete or misleading; that
the highest and best use of the partnership's property is as improved; and that
all calculations were made in accordance with the terms of your partnership's
agreement of limited partnership.
Stanger was not requested to, and therefore did not: (i) select the offer
price or the offer price (excluding the settlement fund payment); (ii) make any
recommendation to your partnership or its partners with respect to whether to
accept or reject the proposed offer; (iii) solicit any third party indications
of interest in acquiring the assets of your partnership or all or any part of
your partnership; or (iv) express any opinion as to (a) the tax consequences of
the offer to unitholders, (b) the terms of your partnership's agreement of
limited partnership or the terms of any agreements or contracts between your
partnership and AIMCO; (c) AIMCO's or the general partner's business decision to
effect the offer, or alternatives to the offer, (d) the amount or allocation of
expenses relating to the offer between AIMCO and your partnership or tendering
unitholders; (e) the amount or derivation of liquidation values per unit of
limited partnership interests in your partnership by us: and (f) any adjustments
made to determine the offer price or the offer price (excluding the settlement
fund payment) and the net amounts distributable to the unitholders, including
but not
27
<PAGE> 31
limited to, balance sheet adjustments to reflect your partnership's estimate of
the value of current net working capital balances, reserve accounts, and
liabilities, and adjustments to the offer consideration for distributions made
by your partnership subsequent to the date of the offer.
Stanger is not expressing any opinions as to the fairness of any terms of
the offer other than the offer price (excluding the settlement fund payment) for
the units, nor did Stanger address the fairness of all possible acquisitions of
interests in the partnership. The opinion will not be revised to reflect the
actual results of the offer. Stanger's opinion is based on business, economic,
real estate and capital market, and other conditions as of the date of its
analysis and addresses the offer in the context of information available as of
the date of its analysis. Events occurring after such date and before the
closing of the proposed offer could affect value of the partnership's property
or the assumptions used in preparing the Fairness Opinion. Stanger has no
obligation to update the Fairness Opinion on the basis of subsequent events.
In connection with preparing the Fairness Opinion, Stanger was not engaged
to, and consequently did not, prepare any written or oral report or compendium
of its analysis for internal or external use beyond the report set forth in
Annex I.
Compensation and Material Relationships. Stanger has been retained by
AIMCO to provide fairness opinions with respect to your partnership and other
partnerships which are or will be the subject of similar offers under the
settlement. Pursuant to the Stipulation, Stanger's fee of $21,000 with respect
to its Fairness Opinion for your partnership will be paid by your partnership.
The estimated aggregate fee payable to Stanger in connection with all affiliated
partnerships is estimated at 1,500,000. In addition, Stanger is entitled to
reimbursement for reasonable legal, travel and out-of-pocket expenses incurred
in making the site visits and preparing the Fairness Opinion, and is entitled to
indemnification against certain liabilities, including certain liabilities under
Federal securities laws. No portion of Stanger's fee is contingent upon
consummation of the offer or the content of Stanger's opinion. Stanger was
engaged by AIMCO during 1997 to represent AIMCO in negotiations to acquire
interests in a real estate limited partnership. Such transaction was never
consummated and no fee was ever paid to Stanger in connection with such proposed
transaction. Stanger was also engaged in and did render certain fairness
opinions in 1998 and 1999 for certain exchange offers we made and received fees
and expenses of approximately $317,000. AIMCO and its affiliates may retain the
services of Stanger in the future. Any such future services could relate to this
offer, some or all of the concurrent offers, or a completely separate
transaction.
SECTION 10. POSITION OF THE GENERAL PARTNER OF YOUR PARTNERSHIP WITH
RESPECT TO THE OFFER.
The general partner of your partnership believes the offer price and the
structure of the transaction are fair to the limited partners. In making such
determination, the general partner considered all of the factors and information
set forth below, but did not quantify or otherwise attach particular weight to
any such factors or information:
o The offer gives you an opportunity to make an individual decision
on whether to tender your units or to continue to hold them.
o Our offer price, the method we used to determine our offer price
and the fact that such method was determined by arms-length
negotiations in connection with the settlement of the lawsuit.
o The Fairness Opinion of Robert A. Stanger & Co., Inc.
o Prices at which the units have recently sold, to the extent such
information is available.
o The absence of an established trading market for your units.
o An evaluation of the financial condition and results of
operations of your partnership including the increase in property
income of your partnership from $1,743,000 for the year ended
1998 (based on annualizing the net income for the nine months
ended September 30, 1998) compared to an estimated $2,179,000 for
the year ending December 31, 1999 (based on annualizing net
income for the nine months ended September 30, 1999) Actual 1999
taxes could be higher or lower.
28
<PAGE> 32
The general partner of your partnership makes no recommendation as to
whether you should tender or refrain from tendering your units. Although the
general partner believes the offer is fair, you must make your own decision
whether or not to participate in the offer, based upon a number of factors,
including your financial position, your need or desire for liquidity, other
financial opportunities available to you, and your tax position and the tax
consequences to you of selling your units.
SECTION 11. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
Conflicts of Interest With Respect to the Offer. The general partner of
your partnership became a majority-owned subsidiary of AIMCO on October 1, 1998,
when AIMCO merged with Insignia. Your general partner became a wholly owned
subsidiary of AIMCO on February 26, 1999 when IPT merged with AIMCO.
Accordingly, the general partner of your partnership has substantial conflicts
of interest with respect to the offer. The general partner of your partnership
has a fiduciary obligation to obtain a fair offer price for you, even as a
subsidiary of AIMCO. As a consequence of our ownership of units, we may have
incentives to seek to maximize the value of our ownership of units, which in
turn may result in a conflict for your general partner in attempting to
reconcile our interests with the interests of the other limited partners.
Additionally, we desire to purchase units at a low price and you desire to sell
units at a high price. The general partner of your partnership makes no
recommendation as to whether you should tender or refrain from tendering your
units. Such conflicts of interest in connection with the offer and the operation
of AIMCO differ from those conflicts of interest that currently exist for your
partnership. See "Risk Factors -- Conflicts of Interest With Respect to the
Offer." Your general partner has filed a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement
on Schedule 14D-9 with the SEC, which indicates that it is remaining neutral and
making no recommendation as to whether limited partners should tender their
units pursuant to the offer. LIMITED PARTNERS ARE URGED TO READ THIS OFFER TO
PURCHASE AND THE SCHEDULE 14D-9 AND THE RELATED MATERIALS CAREFULLY AND IN THEIR
ENTIRETY BEFORE DECIDING WHETHER TO TENDER THEIR UNITS.
Conflicts of Interest That Currently Exist for Your Partnership. We own
both the general partner of your partnership and the property manager of your
partnership's properties. The general partner does not receive an annual
management fee but may receive reimbursements for expenses incurred in its
capacity as general partner. The general partner of your partnership received
total fees and reimbursements of $153,000 in 1996, $124,000 in 1997 and $133,000
in 1998. The property manager for the residential properties received management
fees of $233,000 in 1996, $233,000 in 1997 and $235,000 in 1998. We have no
current intention of changing the fee structure for your general partner or the
manager of your partnership's properties.
Competition Among Properties. Because AIMCO and your partnership both
invest in apartment properties, these properties may compete with one another
for tenants. Furthermore, you should bear in mind that AIMCO may acquire
properties in general market areas where your partnership properties are
located. It is believed that this concentration of properties in a general
market area will facilitate overall operations through collective advertising
efforts and other operational efficiencies. In managing AIMCO's properties, we
will attempt to reduce conflicts between competing properties by referring
prospective customers to the property considered to be most conveniently located
for the customer's needs.
Future Offers. Except as contemplated by the Stipulation, we have no
current plans to conduct future tender offers for your units. However, our plans
may change based on future circumstances, including third party tender offers.
Any such future offers that we might make could be for consideration that is
more or less than the consideration we are currently offering.
29
<PAGE> 33
SECTION 12. FUTURE PLANS OF THE PURCHASER.
As described above under "The Offer -- Section 9. Background and Reasons
for the Offer," we own the general partner and thereby control the management of
your partnership. In addition, we own the manager of your partnership's
properties. We currently intend that, upon consummation of the offer, your
partnership will continue its business and operations substantially as they are
currently being conducted. The offer is not expected to have any effect on
partnership operations.
Although we have no present intention to do so (except as provided in the
Stipulation), we may acquire additional units or sell units after completion or
termination of the offer. Any acquisition may be made through private purchases,
through one or more future tender or exchange offers, by merger, consolidation
or by any other means deemed advisable. Any acquisition may be at a price higher
or lower than the price to be paid for the units purchased pursuant to this
offer, and may be for cash, limited partnership interests in AIMCO Properties,
L.P. or other consideration. We also may consider selling some or all of the
units we acquire pursuant to the offer to persons not yet determined, which may
include our affiliates. We may also buy your partnership's properties, although
we have no present intention to do so. There can be no assurance, however, that
we will initiate or complete, or will cause your partnership to initiate or
complete, any subsequent transaction during any specific time period following
the expiration of the offer or at all.
Except as set forth herein, we do not have any present plans or proposals
which relate to or would result in an extraordinary transaction, such as a
merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving your partnership or any of your
partnership's subsidiaries; a sale or transfer of a material amount of your
partnership's assets (or assets of the partnership's subsidiaries); any changes
in composition of your partnership's senior management or personnel or their
compensation; any changes in your partnership's present capitalization or
distribution policy; or any other material changes in your partnership's
structure or business. We or our affiliates may loan funds to your partnership
which may be secured by your partnership's property. If any such loans are made,
upon default of such loans, the lender could seek to foreclose on the loan and
related mortgage or security interest. However, we expect that consistent with
your general partner's fiduciary obligations, the general partner will seek and
review opportunities (including opportunities identified by us) to engage in
transactions which could benefit your partnership, such as sales or refinances
of assets or a combination of the partnership with one or more other entities,
with the objective of seeking to maximize returns to limited partners.
We have been advised that the possible future transactions the general
partner expects to consider on behalf of your partnership include: (1) payment
of extraordinary distributions; (2) refinancing, reducing or increasing existing
indebtedness of the partnership; (3) sales of assets, individually or as part of
a complete liquidation; and (4) mergers or other consolidation transactions
involving the partnership. Any such merger or consolidation transaction could
involve other limited partnerships in which your general partner or its
affiliates serve as general partners, or a combination of the partnership with
one or more existing, publicly traded entities (including, possibly, affiliates
of AIMCO), in any of which limited partners might receive cash, common stock or
other securities or consideration. There is no assurance, however, as to when or
whether any of the transactions referred to above might occur. If any such
transaction is effected by the partnership and financial benefits accrue to the
limited partners of your partnership, we will participate in those benefits to
the extent of our ownership of units. The agreement of limited partnership
prohibits limited partners from voting on actions taken by the partnership,
unless otherwise specifically permitted therein. Limited partners may vote on a
liquidation, and if we are successful in acquiring a substantial number of units
pursuant to the offer, we will be able to control the outcome of any such vote.
Even if we acquire a lesser number of units pursuant to the offer, however,
because we currently own approximately 20.69% of the outstanding units we will
be able to significantly influence the outcome of any such vote. Our primary
objective in seeking to acquire the units pursuant to the offer is not, however,
to influence the vote on any particular transaction, but rather to generate a
profit on the investment represented by those units.

SECTION 13. CERTAIN INFORMATION CONCERNING YOUR PARTNERSHIP.
General. Davidson Income Real Estate, L.P. was organized on April 30,
1985, under the laws of the State of Delaware. Its primary business is real
estate ownership and related operations. Your partnership was formed for the
purpose of making investments in various types of real properties which offer
potential capital appreciation and cash distributions to its limited partners.
Your partnership's investment portfolio currently consists of the
following four residential apartment complexes: Bexley House, a 64-unit complex
in Columbus, Ohio; Covington Point, a 180-unit complex in Dallas, Texas;
Lakeside, a 216-unit complex in Charlotte, North Carolina; and North Springs, a
120-unit complex in Atlanta, Georgia.
The general partner of your partnership is DDP, Inc., which is a wholly
owned subsidiary of AIMCO. A wholly owned subsidiary of AIMCO serves as manager
of the properties owned by your partnership. As of October 26, 1999, there were
26,776 units issued and outstanding, which were held of record by 2,354 limited
partners. Your partnership's principal executive offices are located at 1873
South Bellaire Street, 17th Floor, Denver, Colorado 80222, and its telephone
number at that address is (303) 757-8101.
For additional information about your partnership, please refer to the
annual report prepared by your partnership which was sent to you prior to this
offer to purchase, particularly Item 2 of Form 10-KSB which contains detailed
information regarding the properties owned, including mortgages, rental rates
and taxes.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES; SALE OR FINANCING OF INVESTMENTS. In
general, your general partner (which is our subsidiary) regularly evaluates the
partnership's properties by considering various factors, such as the
partnership's financial position and real estate and capital markets conditions.
The general partner monitors the properties' specific locale and sub-market
conditions (including stability of the surrounding neighborhood) evaluating
current trends, competition, new construction and economic changes. The general
partner oversees each asset's operating performance and continuously evaluates
the physical improvement requirements. In addition, the financing structure for
each property (including any prepayment penalties), tax implications,
availability of attractive mortgage financing to a purchaser, and the investment
climate are all considered. Any of these factors, and possibly others, could
potentially contribute to any decision by the general partner to sell,
refinance, upgrade with capital improvements or hold a particular partnership
property. If rental market conditions improve, the level of distributions might
increase over time. It is possible that the private resale market for properties
could improve over time, making a sale of the partnership's properties in a
private transaction at some point in the future a more viable option than it is
currently. After taking into account the foregoing considerations, your general
partner is not currently seeking a sale of your partnership's properties
primarily because it expects the properties' operating performance to improve in
the near term. The general partner noted that it expects to spend approximately
$801,643 for capital improvements at the properties in 1999 to repair and update
the properties. Improvements include building improvements, carpet replacement,
enhancement of recreational facilities, landscaping, roof replacement, parking
lot improvements, structural improvements, exterior painting and fence
replacement. Although there can be no assurance as to future performance,
however, these expenditures are expected to improve the desirability of the
property to tenants. The general partner does not believe that a sale of the
properties at the present time would adequately reflect the properties' future
prospects. Another significant factor considered by your general partner is the
likely tax consequences of a sale of the properties for cash. Such a transaction
would likely result in tax liabilities for many limited partners. The general
partner has not received any recent indication of interest or offer to purchase
the properties.
Originally Anticipated Term of Partnership. Your partnership's prospectus,
dated July 26, 1985, pursuant to which units in your partnership were sold,
indicated that your partnership was intended to be self-liquidating and that it
was anticipated that the partnership's properties would be sold within 3 to 7
years of their acquisition, provided market conditions permit. The prospectus
also indicated that there could be no assurance that the partnership would be
able to so liquidate and that, unless sooner terminated as provided in the
partnership agreement, the existence of the partnership would continue until the
year 2010. The partnership currently owns 4 apartment properties. Your general
partner (which is our subsidiary) continually considers whether a property
should be sold or otherwise disposed of after
31
<PAGE> 35
consideration of relevant factors, including prevailing economic conditions,
availability of favorable financing and tax considerations, with a view to
achieving maximum capital appreciation for your partnership. We cannot predict
when any of the properties will be sold or otherwise disposed of. However, there
is no current plan or intention to sell the properties in the near future.
Under your partnership's agreement of limited partnership, the term of the
partnership will continue until December 31, 2010 unless sooner terminated as
provided in the agreement or by law. Limited partners could, as an alternative
to tendering their units, take a variety of possible actions, including voting
to liquidate the partnership or amending the agreement of limited partnership to
authorize limited partners to cause the partnership to merge with another entity
or engage in a "roll-up" or similar transaction.
Capital Replacement. Your partnership has an ongoing program of capital
improvements, replacements and renovations, including roof replacements, kitchen
and bath renovations, balcony repairs (where applicable), replacement of various
building systems and other replacements and renovations in the ordinary course
of business. All capital improvement and renovation costs are expected to be
paid from operating cash flows, cash reserves, or from short-term or long-term
borrowings.
Competition. There are other properties within the market area of your
partnership's properties. The number and quality of competitive properties in
such an area could have a material effect on the rental market for the
apartments at your partnership's properties and the rents that may be charged
for such apartments. While we are a significant factor in the United States in
the apartment industry, competition for apartments is local. According to data
published by the National Multi-Housing Council, as of January 1, 1999, our
portfolio of 373,409 owned or managed apartment units represents approximately
2.2% of the national stock of rental apartments in structures with at least five
apartments.

for your partnership set forth below for the years ended December 31, 1998 and
1997, is based on audited financial statements. The selected financial

Legal Proceedings. Your partnership may be party to a variety of legal

Additional Information Concerning Your Partnership. Your partnership files
annual, quarterly and special reports, proxy statements and other information
with the SEC. You may read and copy any document your partnership files at the
SEC's public reference rooms in Washington, D.C., New York, New York, and

on the public reference rooms. Your partnership's SEC filings are also available
to the public at the SEC's web site at http://www.sec.gov.
SECTION 14. VOTING POWER.
Decisions with respect to the day-to-day management of your partnership
are the responsibility of the general partner. Because the general partner of
your partnership is our affiliate, we control the management of your
partnership. Under your partnership's agreement of limited partnership, limited
partners holding a majority of the outstanding units must approve certain
extraordinary transactions, including the removal of the general partner, the
addition of a new general partner, most amendments to the partnership agreement
and the sale of all or substantially all of your partnership's assets. If we
acquire 8,190.99 additional units that we are offering to purchase, we will own
a majority of the outstanding units and will have the ability to control any
vote of the limited partners.
If we acquire a substantial number of additional units pursuant to our
offer, we may be in a position to influence or control voting decisions with
respect to the limited partners of your partnership. See "The Offer -- Section
7. Effect of the Offer."
However, in connection with the settlement, we have agreed that:
o We will not propose, or cause to have proposed, for a period of
at least five years after the effective date of the settlement,
any amendments to your partnership agreement of limited
partnership which relate to an increase in the various fees that
are payable to the general partner and/or its affiliates under
the terms of such partnership agreement or existing management
contracts.
o We will vote any units that we own in your partnership in the
same manner (and percentages) as do unaffiliated limited partners
with respect to any proposal to increase the various fees that
are payable to the general partner or its affiliates under the
terms of such partnership agreement or existing management
contracts.
o We will obtain a fairness opinion from an independent appraiser
with respect to the consideration offered unaffiliated limited
partners in the event of a sale or merger of your partnership to
or with us or our affiliates.
SECTION 15. SOURCE OF FUNDS.
We expect that approximately $9,055,000 will be required to purchase all
of the limited partnership units that we are seeking in this offer (exclusive of
fees and expenses estimated to be $40,000). For more information regarding fees
and expenses, see "The Offer -- Section 19. Fees and Expenses."
In addition to this offer, we are concurrently making offers to acquire
interests in approximately 48 other limited partnerships pursuant to the
Stipulation. If all such offers were fully subscribed for cash, we would be
required to pay approximately $480 million for all such units (except that with
respect to all of such offers we are not obligated to pay more than $50 million.
If for some reason we did not have such funds available we might extend this
offer for a period of time sufficient for us to obtain additional funds, or we
might terminate this offer. However, based on our past
36
<PAGE> 40
experience with similar offers, we do not expect all such offers to be fully
subscribed. As of June 30, 1999, we had $51,658,000 of cash on hand and $300
million available for borrowing under our existing lines of credit.
Under our $300 million secured revolving credit facility with Bank of
America, BankBoston, N.A. and First Union National Bank, AIMCO Properties, L.P.
is the borrower and all obligations thereunder are guaranteed by AIMCO and
certain of its subsidiaries. The credit facility includes a swing line of up to
$30 million. The obligations under the credit facility are secured by AIMCO
Properties, L.P.'s pledge of its stock ownership in certain subsidiaries of
AIMCO as well as a pledge of its interests in notes issued by it to certain
subsidiaries of AIMCO. The annual interest rate under the credit facility is
based on either LIBOR or a base rate which is the higher of Bank of America's
reference rate or 0.5% over the federal funds rate, plus, in either case, an
applicable margin. The margin ranges between 2.05% and 2.55% in the case of
LIBOR-based loans and between 0.55% and 1.05% in the case of base rate loans,
based upon a fixed charge coverage ratio. The credit facility expires on July
31, 2001 unless extended at the discretion of AIMCO Properties, L.P., at which
time the revolving facility would be converted into a term loan for up to two
successive one-year periods. The financial covenants contained in the credit
facility require us to maintain a ratio of debt to gross asset value of no more
than 0.55 to 1.0, and an interest coverage ratio of 2.25 to 1.0, and a fixed
charge coverage ratio of at least 1.7 to 1.0 through September 30, 1999 and 1.75
to 1.0 thereafter. In addition, the credit facility limits us from distributing
more than 80% of our Funds From Operations (as defined) (or such amounts as may
be necessary for us to maintain our status as a REIT), imposes minimum net worth
requirements and provides other financial covenants related to certain of our
assets and obligations.
SECTION 16. DISSENTERS' RIGHTS.
Neither the agreement of limited partnership of your partnership nor
applicable law provides any right for you to have your units appraised or
redeemed in connection with, or as a result of, our offer. You have the
opportunity to make an individual decision on whether or not to tender your
units in the offer.
SECTION 17. CONDITIONS OF THE OFFER.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of our offer, we will not be required
to accept for payment and pay for any units tendered pursuant to our offer, may

have material significance with respect to the value of your partnership or the
value of the units to us; or

offer, (ii) seeks to make the purchase of, or payment for, some or all of the
units pursuant to our offer illegal or results in a delay in our ability to

or limit the ownership or operation by us or any of our affiliates of the entity
serving as general partner of the partnership or to remove such entity as
general partner of your partnership, or seeks to impose any material limitation
on our ability or the ability of any affiliate of ours to conduct your
partnership's business or own such assets, (iv) seeks to impose material
limitations on our ability to acquire or hold or to exercise full rights of
ownership of the units including, but not limited to, the right to vote the

or (v) might result, in our reasonable judgment, in a diminution in the value of
your partnership or a limitation of the benefits expected to be derived by us as
a result of the transactions contemplated by our offer or the value of the units
to us; or
(d) there shall be any action taken, or any statute, rule, regulation,

SECTION 18. CERTAIN LEGAL MATTERS.
General. Except as set forth in this Section 18, we are not, based on
information provided by your general partner (which is our subsidiary), aware of
any licenses or regulatory permits that would be material to the business of
your partnership, taken as a whole, and that might be adversely affected by our
acquisition of units as contemplated herein, or any filings, approvals or other
actions by or with any domestic or foreign governmental authority or
administrative or regulatory agency that would be required prior to the
acquisition of units by us pursuant to the offer, other than the filing of a
Tender Offer Statement on Schedule 14D-1 with the SEC (which has already been
filed) and any required amendments thereto. While there is no present intent to
delay the purchase of units tendered pursuant to the offer pending receipt of
any such additional approval or the taking of any such action, there can be no
assurance that any such additional approval or action, if needed, would be
obtained without substantial conditions or that adverse consequences might not
result to your partnership or its business, or that certain parts of its
business might not have to be disposed of or other substantial conditions
complied with in order to obtain such approval or action, any of which could
cause us to elect to terminate the offer without purchasing units thereunder.
Our obligation to purchase and pay for units is subject to certain conditions,
including conditions related to the legal matters discussed in this Section 18.
39
<PAGE> 43
Antitrust. We do not believe that the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust
Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, is applicable to the acquisition of units
contemplated by our offer.
Margin Requirements. The units are not "margin securities" under the
regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and,
accordingly, those regulations generally are not applicable to our offer.
State Laws. We are not aware of any jurisdiction in which the making of
our offer is not in compliance with applicable law. If we become aware of any
jurisdiction in which the making of the offer would not be in compliance with
applicable law, we will make a good faith effort to comply with any such law.
If, after such good faith effort, we cannot comply with any such law, the offer
will not be made to (nor will tenders be accepted from or on behalf of)
unitholders residing in such jurisdiction. In those jurisdictions with
securities or blue sky laws that require the offer to be made by a licensed
broker or dealer, the offer shall be made on behalf of us, if at all, only by
one or more registered brokers or dealers licensed under the laws of that
jurisdiction.
SECTION 9. FEES AND EXPENSES.
Except as set forth in this Section 19, we will not pay any fees or
commissions to any broker, dealer or other person for soliciting tenders of
units pursuant to the offer. We have retained River Oaks Partnership Services,
Inc. to act as Information Agent in connection with our offer. The Information
Agent may contact holders of units by mail, telephone, telex, telegraph and
personal interview and may request brokers, dealers and other nominee limited
partners to forward materials relating to the offer to beneficial owners of the
units. We will pay the Information Agent reasonable and customary compensation
for its services in connection with the offer, plus reimbursement for
out-of-pocket expenses, and will indemnify it against certain liabilities and
expenses in connection therewith, including liabilities under the Federal
securities laws. We will also pay all costs and expenses of printing and mailing
the offer and its legal fees and expenses.

Re: Davidson Income Real Estate Limited Partnership
Gentlemen:
You have advised us that AIMCO Properties, L.P. (the "Purchaser"), a
subsidiary of Apartment Investment and Management Company ("AIMCO"), which
directly or indirectly owns the general partner (the "General Partner") of
Davidson Income Real Estate Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") (the
Purchaser, AIMCO, the General Partner and other affiliates and subsidiaries of
AIMCO are referred to herein collectively as the "Company"), is contemplating a
transaction (the "Offer") in which limited partnership interests in the
Partnership (the "Units") will be acquired by the Purchaser in exchange for an
offer price per Unit of $429.86 in cash (the "Offer Price"). Approximately 5% of
the Offer Price represents a payment from a settlement fund established by AIMCO
which will be paid to limited partners under certain circumstances. The limited
partners of the Partnership (the "Limited Partners") will have the choice to
maintain their current interest in the Partnership or exchange their Units for
cash.
You have requested that Robert A. Stanger & Co., Inc. ("Stanger") provide
its opinion as to whether the Offer Price (excluding the settlement fund
payment) (the "Offer Price Excluding the Settlement Fund Payment") per Unit of
$409 is fair to the Limited Partners of the Partnership from a financial point
of view.
Since its founding in 1978, Stanger and its affiliates have provided
information, research, investment banking and consulting services to clients
located throughout the United States, including major New York Stock Exchange
member firms, insurance companies and over seventy companies engaged in the
management and operation of partnerships and real estate investment trusts. The
investment banking activities of Stanger include financial advisory and fairness
opinion services, asset and securities valuations, industry and company research
and analysis, litigation support and expert witness services, and due diligence
investigations in connection with both publicly registered and privately placed
securities transactions.
Stanger, as part of its investment banking business, is regularly engaged
in the valuation of businesses and their securities in connection with mergers,
acquisitions, reorganizations and for estate, tax, corporation and other
purposes. Stanger's valuation practice principally involves partnerships,
partnership securities and the assets typically held through partnerships, such
as real estate, oil and gas reserves, cable television systems and equipment
leasing assets.
In the course of our analysis for rendering this opinion, we have, among
other things:
1. Reviewed a draft of the Offer to Purchase related to the Offer
in a form management has represented to be substantially the same as will be
distributed to the Limited Partners;
2. Reviewed the Partnership's financial statements for the years
ended December 31, 1997 and 1998, and the quarterly reports for the period
ending September 30, 1999, which the Partnership's management has indicted to be
the most current available financial statements;
I-1
<PAGE> 45
3. Reviewed descriptive information concerning the real property
owned by the Partnership (the "Property"), including location, number of units
and unit mix, age, amenities and land acreage.
4. Reviewed summary historical operating statements for the
Property, for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998, and the nine months
ending September 30, 1999;
5. Reviewed the 1999 operating budget for the Property prepared by
the Partnership's management. Such budgets are summarized in the Offer to
Purchase in "The Offer-Item 9. Background and Reasons for the Offer-Stanger
Analysis-Summary of Materials Considered."
6. Reviewed the estimate of liquidation provided by the general
partner to Stanger. Such estimates are described in the Offer to Purchase in
"The Offer-Item 9. Background and Reasons for the Offer-Comparison of
Consideration to Alternative Consideration."
7. Discussed with management the market conditions for the
Property; conditions in the market for sales/acquisitions of properties similar
to that owned by the Partnership; historical, current and expected operations
and performance of the Property and the Partnership; the physical condition of
the Property including any deferred maintenance; and other factors influencing
value of the Property and the Partnership;
8. Performed a site inspection of the Property;
9. Reviewed data and discussed with local sources real estate
rental market conditions in the market of the Property, and reviewed available
information relating to acquisition criteria for income-producing properties
similar to the Property;
10. Reviewed information provided by the Company relating to debt
encumbering the Property; and
11. Conducted such other studies, analyses, inquiries and
investigations as we deemed appropriate.
In rendering this opinion, we have relied upon and assumed, without
independent verification, the accuracy and completeness of all financial
information and management reports and data, and all other reports and
information contained in the Offer to Purchase or that were provided, made
available or otherwise communicated to us by the Partnership and the Company. We
have not performed an independent appraisal, engineering study or environmental
study of the assets and liabilities of the Partnership. We have relied upon the
representations of the Partnership and the Company concerning, among other
things, any environmental liabilities, deferred maintenance and estimated
capital expenditures and replacement reserve requirements, the determination and
valuation of non-real estate assets and liabilities of the Partnership, the
terms and conditions of any debt encumbering the Property, the allocation of net
Partnership values between the General Partner and Limited Partners, and the
transaction costs and fees associated with a sale of the Property. We have also
relied upon the assurance of the Partnership and the Company that any financial
statements, projections, capital expenditure estimates, debt summaries, value
estimates and other information contained in the Offer to Purchase or otherwise
provided or communicated to us were reasonably prepared and adjusted on bases
consistent with actual historical experience, are consistent with the terms of
the Partnership Agreement, and reflect the best currently available estimates
and good faith judgments; that no material changes have occurred in the value of
the Property or other information reviewed between the date such information was
provided and date of this letter; that the Partnership and the Company are not
aware of any information or facts that would cause the information supplied to
us to be incomplete or misleading; that the highest and best use of the Property
is as improved; and that all calculations were made in accordance with the terms
of the Partnership Agreement.
In addition, you have advised us that upon consummation of the Offer, the
Partnership will continue its business and operations substantially as they are
currently being conducted and that the Partnership and the Company do not have
any present plans, proposals or intentions which relate to or would result in an
extraordinary transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation
involving the Partnership; a sale of the Partnership's Properties or the
I-2
<PAGE> 46
sale or transfer of a material amount of the Partnership's other assets; any
changes to the Partnership's senior management or personnel or their
compensation; any changes in the Partnership's present capitalization or
distribution policy; or any other material changes in the Partnership's
structure or business.
We have not been requested to, and therefore did not: (i) select the Offer
Price or the Offer Price Excluding the Settlement Fund Payment or the method of
determining the Offer Price or the Offer Price Excluding the Settlement Fund
Payment in connection with the Offer; (ii) make any recommendation to the
Partnership or its partners with respect to whether to accept or reject the
Offer; (iii) solicit any third party indications of interest in acquiring the
assets of the Partnership or all or any part of the Partnership; or (iv) express
any opinion as to (a) the tax consequences of the proposed Offer to the Limited
Partners, (b) the terms of the Partnership Agreement or of any agreements or
contracts between the Partnership and the Company, (c) the Company's business
decision to affect the Offer or alternatives to the Offer, (d) the amount of
expenses relating to the Offer or their allocation between the Company and the
Partnership or tendering Limited Partners; (e) the amount or derivation of
liquidation values per Unit of limited partnership interests in the Partnership
by the Purchaser: and (f) any adjustments made to determine the Offer Price or
the Offer Price Excluding the Settlement Fund Payment and the net amounts
distributable to the Limited Partners, including, but not limited to, balance
sheet adjustments to reflect the Partnership's estimate of the value of current
net working capital balances, reserve accounts and liabilities, and adjustments
to the Offer Price and the Offer Price Excluding the Settlement Fund Payment for
distributions made by the Partnership subsequent to the date of the initial
Offer. We are not expressing any opinion as to the fairness of any terms of the
Offer other than the Offer Price Excluding the Settlement Fund Payment for the
Units.
Our opinion is based on business, economic, real estate and capital
market, and other conditions as they existed and could be evaluated as of the
date of our analyses and addresses the Offer in the context of information
available as of the date of our analysis. Events occurring after that date could
affect the assumptions used in preparing the opinion.
The summary of the opinion set forth in the Offer to Purchase does not
purport to be a complete description of the analyses performed, or the matters
considered, in rendering our opinion. The analyses and the summary set forth
must be considered as a whole, and selecting portions of such summary or
analyses, without considering all factors and analyses, would create an
incomplete view of the processes underlying this opinion. In rendering this
opinion, judgment was applied to a variety of complex analyses and assumptions.
The assumptions made, and the judgments applied, in rendering the opinion are
not readily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. The fact
that any specific analysis is referred to in the Offer to Purchase is not meant
to indicate that such analysis was given greater weight than any other analysis.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that as of the
date of this letter the Offer Price Excluding the Settlement Fund Payment is
fair to the Limited Partners of the Partnership from a financial point of view.
Yours truly,

Ladies and Gentlemen:
The undersigned hereby acknowledges that he or she has received and
reviewed (i) the Purchaser's Offer to Purchase relating to the offer by AIMCO
Properties, L.P. (the "Purchaser") to purchase Limited Partnership Interests
(the "Units") in the Partnership and (ii) this Letter of Transmittal and the
Instructions hereto, as each may be supplemented or amended from time to time
(collectively, the "Offer").
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to
Purchase, and this Letter of Transmittal, the undersigned hereby tenders to the
Purchaser the Units set forth in the box above entitled "Description of Units
Tendered," including all interests in any limited partnership represented by
such units (collectively, the "Units"), at the price indicated on the Offer to
Purchase, less the amount of distributions, if any, made by the Partnership
from the Offer Date until the Expiration Date (the "Offer Price"), net to the
undersigned in cash, without interest.
Subject to and effective upon acceptance for payment of any of the Units
tendered hereby in accordance with the terms of the Offer, the undersigned
hereby irrevocably sells, assigns, transfers, conveys and delivers to, or upon
the order of, the Purchaser all right, title and interest in and to such Units
tendered hereby that are accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer, including,
without limitation, (i) all of the undersigned's interest in the capital of the
Partnership, and the undersigned's interest in all profits, losses and
distributions of any kind to which the undersigned shall at any time be
entitled in respect of the Units, including, without limitation, distributions
in the ordinary course, distributions from sales of assets, distributions upon
liquidation, winding-up, or dissolution, payments in settlement of existing or
future litigation, and all other distributions and payments from and after the
expiration date of the Offer, in respect of the Units tendered by the
undersigned and accepted for payment and thereby purchased by the Purchaser;
(ii) all other payments, if any, due or to become due to the undersigned in
respect of the Units, under or arising out of the agreement of limited
partnership of the Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement"), or any agreement
pursuant to which the Units were sold (the "Purchase Agreement"), whether as
contractual obligations, damages, insurance proceeds, condemnation awards or
otherwise; (iii) all of the undersigned's claims, rights, powers, privileges,
authority, options, security interests, liens and remedies, if any, under or
arising out of the Partnership Agreement or Purchase Agreement or the
undersigned's ownership of the Units, including, without limitation, all voting
rights, rights of first offer, first refusal or similar rights, and rights to
be substituted as a limited partner of the Partnership; and (iv) all present
and future claims, if any, of the undersigned against the Partnership, the
other partners of the Partnership, or the general partner and its affiliates,
including the Purchaser, under or arising out of the Partnership Agreement, the
Purchase Agreement, the undersigned's status as a limited partner, or the terms
or conditions of the Offer, for monies loaned or advanced, for services
rendered, for the management of the Partnership or otherwise.
The undersigned hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Purchaser
and any designees of the Purchaser as the true and lawful agent and
attorney-in-fact of the undersigned with respect to such Units, with full power
of substitution (such power of attorney being deemed to be an irrevocable power
coupled with an interest), to vote or act in such manner as any such attorney
and proxy or substitute shall, in its sole discretion, deem proper with respect
to such Units, to do all such acts and things necessary or expedient to deliver
such Units and transfer ownership of such Units on the partnership books
maintained by the general partner of the Partnership, together with all
accompanying evidence of transfer and authenticity to, or upon the order of,
the Purchaser, to sign any and all documents necessary to authorize the
transfer of the Units to the Purchaser including, without limitation, the
"Transferor's (Seller's) Application for Transfer" created by the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., if required, and upon receipt by the
Information Agent (as the undersigned's agent) of the Offer Price, to become a
substitute limited partner, to receive any and all distributions made by the
Partnership from and after the Expiration Date of the Offer (regardless of the
record date for any such distribution), and to receive all benefits and
otherwise exercise all rights of beneficial ownership of such Units, all in
accordance with the terms of the Offer. This appointment is effective upon the
purchase of the Units by the Purchaser as provided in the Offer and shall be
irrevocable for a period of ten years following the termination of the Offer.
Upon the purchase of Units pursuant to the Offer, all prior proxies and
consents given by the undersigned with respect to such Units will be revoked
and no subsequent proxies or consents may be given (and if given will not be
deemed effective).

<PAGE> 4
In addition to and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
undersigned hereby irrevocably (i) requests and authorizes (subject to and
effective upon acceptance for payment of any Unit tendered hereby) the
Partnership and its general partners to take any and all actions as may be
required to effect the transfer of the undersigned's Units to the Purchaser (or
its designee) and to admit the Purchaser as a substitute limited partner in the
Partnership under the terms of the Partnership Agreement; (ii) empowers the
Purchaser and its agent to execute and deliver to each general partner a change
of address form instructing the general partner to send any and all future
distributions to the address specified in the form, and to endorse any check
payable to or upon the order of such unitholder representing a distribution to
which the Purchaser is entitled pursuant to the terms of the offer, in each
case, in the name and on behalf of the tendering unitholder; (iii) agrees not
to exercise any rights pertaining to the Units without the prior consent of the
Purchaser; and (iv) requests and consents to the transfer of the Units, to be
effective on the books and records of the Partnership as of the Offer Date.
The undersigned irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Purchaser and any
designees of the Purchaser as the true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact of
the undersigned with respect to such Units, with full power of substitution
(such power of attorney being deemed to be an irrevocable power coupled with an
interest), to withdraw any or all of such Units that have been previously
tendered in response to any tender or exchange offer provided that the price
per unit being offered by the Purchaser is equal to or higher than the price
per unit being offered in the other tender or exchange offer. This appointment
is effective immediately and shall continue to be effective unless and until
such Units are withdrawn from the Offer by the undersigned prior to the
Expiration Date.
NOTWITHSTANDING ANY PROVISION IN A PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT OR ANY PURCHASE
AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, THE UNDERSIGNED HEREBY DIRECTS EACH GENERAL PARTNER
OF THE PARTNERSHIP TO MAKE ALL DISTRIBUTIONS AFTER THE PURCHASER ACCEPTS THE
TENDERED UNITS FOR PAYMENT TO THE PURCHASER OR ITS DESIGNEE. Subject to and
effective upon acceptance for payment of any Unit tendered hereby, the
undersigned hereby requests that the Purchaser be admitted to the Partnership
as a substitute limited partner under the terms of the Partnership Agreement.
Upon request, the undersigned will execute and deliver additional documents
deemed by the Information Agent or the Purchaser to be necessary or desirable
to complete the assignment, transfer and purchase of Units tendered hereby and
will hold any distributions received from the Partnership after the Expiration
Date in trust for the benefit of the Purchaser and, if necessary, will promptly
forward to the Purchaser any such distributions immediately upon receipt. The
Purchaser reserves the right to transfer or assign, in whole or in part, from
time to time, to one or more of its affiliates, the right to purchase Units
tendered pursuant to the Offer, but any such transfer or assignment will not
relieve the Purchaser of its obligations under the Offer or prejudice the
rights of tendering unitholders to receive payment for Units validly tendered
and accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer.
By executing this Letter of Transmittal, the undersigned represents that
either (i) the undersigned is not a plan subject to Title I of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), or Section 4975
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), or an entity
deemed to hold "plan assets" within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101
of any such plan, or (ii) the tender and acceptance of Units pursuant to the
Offer will not result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406
of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.
The undersigned understands that a tender of Units to the Purchaser will
constitute a binding agreement between the undersigned and the Purchaser upon
the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer. The undersigned
recognizes that under certain circumstances set forth in the Offer, the
Purchaser may not be required to accept for payment any of the Units tendered
hereby. In such event, the undersigned understands that any Letter of
Transmittal for Units not accepted for payment may be destroyed by the
Purchaser (or its agent). EXCEPT AS STATED IN THE OFFER, THIS TENDER IS
IRREVOCABLE, PROVIDED THAT UNITS TENDERED PURSUANT TO THE OFFER MAY BE
WITHDRAWN AT ANY TIME PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION DATE, OR UNLESS ALREADY ACCEPTED
FOR PAYMENT, ANY TIME AFTER 60 DAYS FROM THE OFFER DATE.
THE UNDERSIGNED HAS BEEN ADVISED THAT THE PURCHASER IS AN AFFILIATE OF THE
GENERAL PARTNER OF THE PARTNERSHIP AND NO SUCH GENERAL PARTNER MAKES ANY
RECOMMENDATION AS TO WHETHER TO TENDER OR REFRAIN FROM TENDERING UNITS IN THE
OFFER. THE UNDERSIGNED HAS MADE HIS OR HER OWN DECISION TO TENDER UNITS.

<PAGE> 5
The undersigned hereby represents and warrants for the benefit of the
Partnership and the Purchaser that the undersigned owns the Units tendered
hereby and has full power and authority and has taken all necessary action to
validly tender, sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver the Units tendered
hereby and that when the same are accepted for payment by the Purchaser, the
Purchaser will acquire good, marketable and unencumbered title thereto, free
and clear of all liens, restrictions, charges, encumbrances, conditional sales
agreements or other obligations relating to the sale or transfer thereof, and
such Units will not be subject to any adverse claims and that the transfer and
assignment contemplated herein are in compliance with all applicable laws and
regulations.
All authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred shall survive the
death or incapacity of the undersigned, and any obligations of the undersigned
shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, trustees in
bankruptcy, legal representatives, and successors and assigns of the
undersigned.
The undersigned further represents and warrants that, to the extent a
certificate evidencing the Units tendered hereby (the "original certificate")
is not delivered by the undersigned together with this Letter of Transmittal,
(i) the undersigned represents and warrants to the Purchaser that the
undersigned has not sold, transferred, conveyed, assigned, pledged, deposited
or otherwise disposed of any portion of the Units, (ii) the undersigned has
caused a diligent search of its records to be taken and has been unable to
locate the original certificate, (iii) if the undersigned shall find or recover
the original certificate evidencing the Units, the undersigned will immediately
and without consideration surrender it to the Purchaser; and (iv) the
undersigned shall at all times indemnify, defend, and save harmless the
Purchaser and the Partnership, its successors, and its assigns from and against
any and all claims, actions, and suits whether groundless or otherwise, and
from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, costs,
charges, counsel fees, and other expenses of every nature and character by
reason of honoring or refusing to honor the original certificate when presented
by or on behalf of a holder in due course of a holder appearing to or believed
by the partnership to be such, or by issuance or delivery of a replacement
certificate, or the making of any payment, delivery, or credit in respect of
the original certificate without surrender thereof, or in respect of the
replacement certificate.

the appropriate IRS Center or Social Security Administration Office, or (b) the
unitholder intends to mail or deliver an application in the near future (it

Purchaser, 31% of all reportable payments made to the unitholder will be
withheld); and
(ii) Unless this box [ ] is checked, the unitholder is not subject to
backup withholding either because the unitholder: (a) is exempt from backup
withholding; (b) has not been notified by the IRS that the unitholder is
subject to backup withholding as a result of a failure to report all interest
or dividends; or (c) has been notified by the IRS that such unitholder is no

interests and 90% or more of the value of its gross assets consists of U.S.
real property interests plus cash equivalents, and the holder of the
partnership interest is a foreign person. To inform the Purchaser that no
withholding is required with respect to the unitholder's Units in the
Partnership, the person signing this Letter of Transmittal hereby certifies the
following under penalties of perjury:
(i) Unless this box [ ] is checked, the unitholder, if an individual,
is a U.S. citizen or a resident alien for purposes of U.S. income taxation, and
if other than an individual, is not a foreign corporation, foreign partnership,
foreign estate or foreign trust (as those terms are defined in the Internal
Revenue Code and Income Tax Regulations);

employer identification number (for non-individuals) is correct as furnished in
the blank provided for that purpose on the front of the Letter of Transmittal;
(iii) The unitholder's home address (for individuals), or office
address (for non-individuals), is correctly printed (or corrected) on the front
of this Letter of Transmittal.
The person signing this Letter of Transmittal understands that this
certification may be disclosed to the IRS by the Purchaser and that any false
statements contained herein could be punished by fine, imprisonment, or both.

By checking this box [ ], the person signing this Letter of Transmittal
hereby certifies under penalties of perjury that the unitholder is an "exempt
foreign person" for purposes of the Backup Withholding rules under the U.S.
Federal income tax laws, because the unitholder has the following
characteristics:
(i) Is a nonresident alien individual or a foreign corporation,
partnership, estate or trust;
(ii) If an individual, has not been and plans not to be present in
the U.S. for a total of 183 days or more during the calendar

4. SPECIAL PAYMENT AND DELIVERY INSTRUCTIONS. If consideration is to be
issued in the name of a person other than the person signing the
Signature Box of the Letter of Transmittal or if consideration is to
be sent to someone other than such signer or to an address other than
that set forth on the Letter of Transmittal in the box entitled
"Description of Units Tendered," the appropriate boxes on the Letter
of Transmittal should be completed.
5. TAX CERTIFICATIONS. The unitholder(s) tendering Units to the Purchaser
pursuant to the Offer must furnish the Purchaser with the
unitholder(s)' taxpayer identification number ("TIN") and certify as
true, under penalties of perjury, the representations in Box A, Box B
and, if applicable, Box C. By signing the Signature Box, the
unitholder(s) certifies that the TIN as printed (or corrected) on this
Letter of Transmittal in the box entitled "Description of Units
Tendered" and the representations made in Box A, Box B and, if
applicable, Box C, are correct. See attached Guidelines for
Certification of Taxpayer Identification Number on Substitute Form W-9
for guidance in determining the proper TIN to give the Purchaser.
U.S. PERSONS. A unitholder that is a U.S. citizen or a resident alien
individual, a domestic corporation, a domestic partnership, a domestic
trust or a domestic estate (collectively, "U.S. Persons"), as those
terms are defined in the Code, should follow the instructions below
with respect to certifying Box A and Box B.
BOX A - SUBSTITUTE FORM W-9.
Part (i), Taxpayer Identification Number -- Tendering unitholders must
certify to the Purchaser that the TIN as printed (or corrected) on
this Letter of Transmittal in the box entitled "Description of Units
Tendered" is correct. If a correct TIN is not provided, penalties may
be imposed by the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS"), in addition to
the unitholder being subject to backup withholding.
Part (ii), Backup Withholding -- In order to avoid 31% Federal income
tax backup withholding, the tendering unitholder must certify, under
penalty of perjury, that such unitholder is not subject to backup
withholding. Certain unitholders (including, among others, all
corporations and certain exempt non-profit organizations) are not
subject to backup withholding. Backup withholding is not an additional
tax. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may
be obtained from the IRS. DO NOT CHECK THE BOX IN BOX A, PART (ii),
UNLESS YOU HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED BY THE IRS THAT YOU ARE SUBJECT TO
BACKUP WITHHOLDING.
When determining the TIN to be furnished, please refer to the
following as a guide:
Individual accounts - should reflect owner's TIN.
Joint accounts - should reflect the TIN of the owner whose name
appears first.
Trust accounts - should reflect the TIN assigned to the trust.
IRA custodial accounts - should reflect the TIN of the custodian (not
necessary to provide).
9
<PAGE> 10
Custodial accounts for the benefit of minors - should reflect the TIN
of the minor.
Corporations, partnership or other business entities - should reflect
the TIN assigned to that entity.
By signing the Signature Box, the unitholder(s) certifies that the TIN
as printed (or corrected) on the front of the Letter of Transmittal is
correct.
BOX B - FIRPTA AFFIDAVIT -- Section 1445 of the Code requires that
each unitholder transferring interests in a partnership with real
estate assets meeting certain criteria certify under penalty of
perjury the representations made in Box B, or be subject to
withholding of tax equal to 10% of the purchase price for interests
purchased. Tax withheld under Section 1445 of the Code is not an
additional tax. If withholding results in an overpayment of tax, a
refund may be obtained from the IRS. PART (i) SHOULD BE CHECKED ONLY
IF THE TENDERING UNITHOLDER IS NOT A U.S. PERSON, AS DESCRIBED
THEREIN.
BOX C - FOREIGN PERSONS -- In order for a tendering unitholder who is
a Foreign Person (i.e., not a U.S. Person, as defined above) to
qualify as exempt from 31% backup withholding, such foreign Unitholder
must certify, under penalties of perjury, the statement in Box C of
this Letter of Transmittal, attesting to that Foreign Person's status
by checking the box preceding such statement. UNLESS THE BOX IS
CHECKED, SUCH UNITHOLDER WILL BE SUBJECT TO 31% WITHHOLDING OF TAX.
6. VALIDITY OF LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL. All questions as to the validity,
form, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance of a
Letter of Transmittal and other required documents will be determined
by the Purchaser and such determination will be final and binding. The
Purchaser's interpretation of the terms and conditions of the Offer
(including these Instructions for this Letter of Transmittal) will be
final and binding. The Purchaser will have the right to waive any
irregularities or conditions as to the manner of tendering. Any
irregularities in connection with tenders, unless waived, must be
cured within such time as the Purchaser shall determine. This Letter
of Transmittal will not be valid until any irregularities have been
cured or waived. Neither the Purchaser nor the Information Agent are
under any duty to give notification of defects in a Letter of
Transmittal and will incur no liability for failure to give such
notification.
7. ASSIGNEE STATUS. Assignees must provide documentation to the
Information Agent which demonstrates, to the satisfaction of the
Purchaser, such person's status as an assignee.
8. TRANSFER TAXES. The amount of any transfer taxes (whether imposed on
the registered holder or such person) payable on account of the
transfer to such person will be deducted from the purchase price
unless satisfactory evidence of the payment of such taxes or exemption
therefrom is submitted.

Dear Limited Partner:
We are pleased to announce that we have reached a settlement, subject
to final court approval, of the class action litigation entitled Rosalie
Nuanes, et al. v. Insignia Financial Group, et al., which was brought on behalf
of limited partners in partnerships formerly managed by Insignia Financial
Group, Inc., including yours. Pursuant to the settlement, we are offering to
acquire your units of limited partnership interest in Davidson Income Real
Estate, L.P., at $429.86 per unit. We determined the offer price based upon a
method negotiated at arm's length with plaintiffs' class action counsel. This
price includes a payment of $20.86 from a settlement fund which we will pay you
if we receive court approval of the settlement and you do not request exclusion
from the settlement class. IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THE SETTLEMENT,
ROBERT A. STANGER & CO., INC., AN INDEPENDENT INVESTMENT BANKING FIRM, HAS
DELIVERED ITS OPINION THAT THE OFFER PRICE IS FAIR TO LIMITED PARTNERS FROM A
FINANCIAL POINT OF VIEW. (A copy of that opinion is attached as Annex I to the
enclosed Litigation Settlement Offer.)
The Court has preliminarily approved the settlement and will
soon consider whether to give its final approval. The offer price of $429.86
was calculated after taking into account amounts for estimated attorneys' fees,
costs, and expenses which plaintiffs' counsel is permitted to seek in
connection with the settlement. These and other terms of the settlement are
more fully described in the accompanying Notice of Settlement, as well as in
the Stipulation of Settlement on file with the San Mateo Superior Court.
<PAGE> 2
Our offer is not subject to any minimum number of units being
tendered. However, under the settlement, we are not required to pay more than
$50,000,000 in cash in the aggregate for all units tendered by limited partners
in all of the 49 partnerships to which we are making offers as part of the
settlement. If units tendered for cash in all of these offers exceed
$50,000,000 in value, we will accept units on a pro rata basis, according to
the value of units tendered by each person. However, in connection with the
settlement, our parent corporation, Apartment Investment and Management Company
("AIMCO"), a New York Stock Exchange-listed company, intends to seek Court
approval to offer freely tradeable shares of AIMCO stock in exchange for units
tendered in excess of $50,000,000. However, before we offer any such shares of
AIMCO stock, the Court must first determine that the terms are fair after
holding a hearing in which you and all other limited partners in your
partnership can participate. If we do offer AIMCO stock, we will provide you
with additional information describing the shares and how many you will receive
for your units. In any event, we will not be obligated to pay more than
$50,000,000 in cash pursuant to all of the offers, although we reserve the
right to do so. If you wish to sell your units for cash you may wish to sell
pursuant to this offer.
You will not be required to pay any partnership transfer fees in
connection with any disposition of your units pursuant to our offer. However,
you may have to pay any taxes and any other fees and expenses. Our offer price
will be reduced for any distributions subsequently made by your partnership
prior to the expiration of our offer.
There are advantages and disadvantages to you of accepting or
declining our offer. The terms of the offer are more fully described in the
enclosed materials, which you should read carefully. These documents describe
the material risks and opportunities associated with the offer, including
certain tax considerations. The general partner of your partnership, which is
our affiliate, makes no recommendation as to whether you should tender or
refrain from tendering your units. You must make your own decision whether or
not to participate in the offer, based upon a number of factors, including your
financial position, your need or desire for liquidity, other financial
opportunities available to you, and your tax position and the tax consequences
to you of selling your units.
If you desire to tender any of your units in response to our offer,
you should complete and sign the enclosed letter of transmittal in accordance
with the enclosed instructions and mail or deliver the signed letter of
transmittal and any other required documents to River Oaks Partnership
Services, Inc., which is acting as the Information Agent in connection with our
offer, at the address set forth on the back cover of the enclosed Offer to
Purchase. The offer will expire at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on
