Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
         ------------------------------------

On January 17, 1996, Windsor Park Properties 3 (the Partnership) purchased the
Trailmont manufactured home community located in Nashville, Tennessee.  The
community is in good condition, and the Partnership intends to hold it as a
medium-term (four to six year) investment.  During the investment period the
Partnership intends to continue to operate the property as a manufactured home
community.

Trailmont is situated on 30 acres of land and was developed in 1965.  The
community contains 131 manufactured home spaces, and amenities include a
swimming pool and two playgrounds.  All assets acquired will continue to be used
in the operations of the community.  The General Partners anticipate expending
$15,000 for various capital improvement and maintenance projects over the next
12 months.  It is the opinion of the General Partners that the community is
adequately insured.

The total cost of the property was approximately $2,111,500 ($2,031,500 paid to
the Seller, a $60,900 commission paid to an unaffiliated broker, and other costs
of $19,100).  The purchase price was negotiated through an arms-length
bargaining process with the seller, Trailmont MHP, Ltd., a California limited
partnership.  The registrant's General Partners are not affiliated with the
seller of the community.

In connection with the purchase, the Partnership obtained a $1,050,000 loan from
Heller Financial Inc., a Delaware corporation.  The loan is collateralized by
the property and is payable in monthly interest only installments bearing
interest at 8.41%.  The loan is due in January 2003 and loan costs of
approximately $40,000 were incurred.

The community's manufactured home spaces are rented to tenants on a month-to-
month basis, and current base rental rates average $180 per month.  The
community is located near several other manufactured home communities with
comparable base rental rates.

The community is currently 100% occupied and has been approximately 97% occupied
for the past five years.  Other manufactured home communities in the immediate
area are approximately 95% occupied.

Other material factors considered by the General Partners in assessing the
property include ad valorem taxes for the 1995 tax year which totaled $9,800
($35 per $1,000 assessed value) and utility rates which are expected to increase
4% per year.

The sources of funds for this acquisition were financing proceeds from
investment properties already owned by the Partnership and the new mortgage loan
described above.

          following the Opening of Escrow.

              E.  Buyer shall pay for all of its inspections, appraisals,
          engineering reports, surveys, environmental audit, confidential audit

          (10) days following receipt by Buyer.

              H.  All other Property-related expenses, including but not

                  1.  To the extent such matters cannot be determined exactly
               as of Closing, such amounts shall be estimated for purposes of
               proration at Closing  and, within ten (10) days following final
               amounts becoming known, Seller and Buyer will make appropriate
               adjusting payments to each other; and

                  2.  Seller shall retain all utility and similar deposits,

          11. CLOSING DELIVERIES.  At Closing, all Closing Documents shall be
              ------------------                                             
     completed, as appropriate (including dates and exhibits), and Seller and
     Buyer shall execute and/or deliver the following documents as indicated:

              A. Seller shall execute a Special Warranty Deed conveying the

          and Contracts, and  Assignment of Rights conveying the Intangible
          Property, and Bill of Sale conveying the Personal Property in the
          forms of Exhibit B, C, D and E attached hereto.

              C.  Seller shall provide an updated Rent Roll, certified as of a

                                       6
<PAGE>
 
          than five (5) days prior to Closing.

              D.  Seller and Buyer shall each review and approve the Escrow
          Settlement Statement prepared by Escrow Holder.

              E.  Seller shall provide a Non-Foreign Affidavit in compliance

              F.  Seller shall provide a letter to all Tenants advising of
          transfer of the Property to Buyer.

              G.  Seller shall provide copies (originals if available) of all
          Tenant Leases, keys, Certificates of Title to vehicles and mobile
          homes, if any, contracts, plans, permits, licenses and studies and
          similar Property-related materials matters, to the extent within
          Seller's control.

          12. RISK OF LOSS.  Between the date of this Agreement and Closing,
              ------------                                                  
     the risk of ownership and loss of the Property shall belong to Seller
     except to the extent caused by Buyer, its representatives or agents.  In
     the event of a "material" damage to or destruction of the Property (a
     "Loss") or a "material" condemnation or other governmental appropriation (a
     "Taking") of all or any portion of the Property prior to the Closing Date
     Seller shall promptly notify Buyer and Buyer may elect, by written notice
     given to Seller and Escrow Holder on or before the first to occur of ten
     (10) days after written notice from Seller of such event or the Closing
     Date, either:  (I) to receive, at the Closing, an assignment of all
     Seller's rights to insurance and condemnation proceeds (with rent loss or
     similar proceeds pro rated as of the Closing) arising by reason of any Loss
     or Taking, and consummate the transaction without any reduction of the
     Purchase Price; or (ii) to cancel this Agreement and related Escrow, in
     which event Escrow Holder shall return to Buyer the Earnest Deposit, and
     neither Seller nor Buyer shall have any further obligation or
     responsibility to perform hereunder, except as otherwise specifically set
     forth herein.  In the event Buyer fails to timely give Seller and Escrow
     Holder written notice of (I) or (ii) above, Buyer shall be deemed to have
     elected (ii) above.  For purposes of this Section 12, a Loss shall be
     "material" if it involves damage or destruction costing in excess of
     $50,000.00 to repair or replace or if the occupancy of 13 or more tenants
     are disrupted and such disruption extends beyond the Closing Date.    For
     purposes of this Section 12, a Loss shall be "material" if a Taking shall
     be "material" if it shall materially and adversely affect the operation of
     the Property, including material reduction in or impairment of access,
     servicing, and like matters.

          13. BUYER'S DEFAULT.
              --------------- 
          In the event Buyer at any time fails to comply with or perform any of
     the covenants, agreements or other obligations to be performed by Buyer
     under the terms of this Agreement at or prior to Closing (a "Pre-Closing
     Default"), Seller shall as its sole and exclusive remedy, be entitled to
     cancel this Agreement and related Escrow by giving Buyer and Escrow Holder
     written notice of cancellation, in which event Escrow Holder shall
     immediately pay to Seller the Earnest Deposit (including interest earned
     thereon) as full liquidated damages for Seller; provided: (a) the foregoing
     limitation shall not apply to the Inspection Indemnity or Brokerage
     Indemnity (as herein defined); (b) the foregoing limitation shall not apply
     if and to the extent Buyer initiates or pursues any Precluded Remedies; and
     (C) Buyer's liability under the Inspection Indemnity and Brokerage
     Indemnity shall be in addition to, and shall not be a part of or in lieu
     of, any right of Seller to receive, and obligation of Buyer to pay, the
     Earnest Deposit to Seller.  The parties acknowledge that it is impossible
     to more precisely estimate the specific damage


                                       7
<PAGE>
 
     which would be suffered by Seller in the event of a Pre-Closing Default by
     Buyer hereunder, and expressly acknowledge, intend and agree that the
     delivery of the Earnest Deposit to Seller is an agreed and negotiated
     provision for liquidated damages and not a penalty.  Seller and Buyer shall
     each have all rights and remedies allowed by applicable law from and after
     Closing.

     14. BROKERAGE.  If and when Closing occurs pursuant to this Agreement,
         ---------                                                         
Seller shall pay a commission to  BVA Holdings, LLC and U.S. Park Investments
pursuant to separate agreement, and Buyer shall pay a commission to National
Realty Group pursuant to separate agreement (the "Brokers").  The Brokers shall
not have any right to receive all or any portion of their commissions, whether
from any Earnest Deposit received or retained by Seller or otherwise, in the
event Closing does not occur pursuant to this Agreement. Joinder of Brokers
shall not be required for any modification, amendment or termination of this
Agreement.  Buyer and Seller represent to each other that they have not dealt
with any other real estate broker, agent or finder, with respect to this
Agreement.  Buyer and Seller shall each indemnify, defend and hold the other
party harmless for, from and against any loss, cost or expense, including, but
not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs resulting from any
claim for a fee or commission by any other broker or finder claiming by or
through the indemnifying party (the "Brokerage Indemnity").  This Brokerage
Indemnity shall survive the cancellation of this Agreement and related Escrow
and the Closing.

     15. NOTICES.  Any notice provided for by this Agreement and any other
         -------

entire agreement between the parties pertaining to the Property, and supersedes
all prior agreements and understandings of the parties in connection therewith.
No oral agreements or understandings between the parties shall be binding upon
them.  Buyer shall not record, or cause recordation of this Agreement or any

     21. HEADINGS; COUNTERPARTS.  The headings of this Agreement are for
         ----------------------

provision of this Agreement.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of

     22. TAX DEFERRED EXCHANGE.  Buyer ("Accommodator") shall cooperate with
         ---------------------

             A.  The Requesting Party shall have the right to proceed with an
         Exchange at any time prior to the Closing Date, provided it gives
         reasonable advance notice of its desire to have Accommodator
         participate in the Exchange, together with each and all of the
         documents to be executed by Accommodator with respect to the Exchange.

              B.  Neither the Closing, nor consummation of any other aspect of
         this Agreement, shall in any way be predicated or conditioned on the
         Exchange or completion thereof.

              C. Any documents to be executed by Accommodator in connection
         with an Exchange shall not cause Accommodator to incur any additional
         cost, expense or liability.

              D.  Accommodator shall have the right, as a condition to
         participation in the Exchange, to require Requesting Party to provide
         advance payment to Accommodator of the reasonably anticipated extra
         costs, including attorneys' fees, to be incurred by Accommodator
         solely by reason of participation in the Exchange.

              E.  Accommodator does not make any representation or warranty to
         Requesting Party or any other third party, including state or federal
         tax authorities, that the Exchange will qualify for any particular or
         deferred tax treatment.

              F.  Requesting Party shall indemnify and hold Accommodator
         harmless for, from and against any and all liability, damages, or
         costs, including actual attorneys' fees, incurred or that may be
         incurred by Accommodator by virtue of Accommodator's participation in
         the Exchange.

          effect all or any of any party's rights or obligations, under this
