Item 2. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
        FINANCIAL CONDITION



Results of Operations
At September 30, 1998 the Partnership owned Las Brisas Apartments, a 376
unit apartment community located at 2010 South Clark Street, Abilene,
Taylor County, Texas 79606. The Partnership purchased a fee simple interest
in Las Brisas Apartments on July 30, 1986. The property contains
approximately 312,532 net rentable square feet, one clubhouse, and five
laundry facilities located on approximately 19.11 acres of land.

FIRST NINE MONTHS 1998 COMPARED TO FIRST NINE MONTHS 1997

Revenue from property operations increased $20,886, or 1.97%, for the first
nine months of 1998, as compared to the first six  months of 1997.  Increased
occupancy  to 90% in the first nine months of 1998  from  88.6 % in the first
nine months of 1997 accounted for this increase in rental income of $9,964 or
0.98%.  Other property income increased $10,922 or 24.82%  mainly due to
increased fee collections. The following table illustrates the components:


                          Increase            Per Cent
                         (Decrease)            Change
                                                                          
Rental income                9,964           0.98%
Other property              10,922          24.82%
                            20,886           1.97%


Property operating expenses: increased by $52,510 or 4.59% for the first nine
months of 1998 compared to the first nine months of 1997 due primarily to

     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     On July 31, 1986 the Partnership purchased the Las Brisas Apartments.
The purchase provided for the sellers to receive cash at closing and notes
totaling $660,000. On September 30, 1987 the principal balance due totaled
$210,000. In order to obtain the necessary proceeds to finally retire these
notes the General Partners offered 254 Units of the Partnership to two
investors at the price of $200,660. No commissions were taken nor did the
General Partner receive any fees in connection with these interests. The
Partnership then obtained short term financing from Resource Savings
Association totaling $260,000, bearing interest at the rate of 2% over prime
and payable quarterly together with principal payments of $15,000 each.
Security for the loan was provided by a $100,000 certificate of deposit and
the personal guaranties of the Partnership's General Partners. The Resource
Savings Association loan matured December 31,1983. In September, 1991
Mr. Werra paid $40,750 in satisfaction of his personal guaranty of the
Partnership loan.

     The Partnership defaulted in its debt obligations in August, 1988.
The Partnership was forced to seek protection under Chapter 11 of the
United States Bankruptcy Code in December, 1988 when negotiations with
Aetna Life Insurance Company, ("Aetna") the holder of the two underlying
first mortgage notes and Las Brisas Apartments, Ltd. and Abilene Associates,
Ltd., the holders of respective wrap mortgage notes ("Wrap Note Holders")
failed to provide any relief.

     The Partnership emerged from bankruptcy on May 15,1990, having
negotiated a modification of its debt with its major creditors. In June, 1989
an affiliate of the individual General Partner provided $401,910.77 to bring
the Aetna notes current. At the same time the Wrap Note Holders agreed to
reduced the payments due on their respective wrap notes in order to mirror
the payments made on the underlying Aetna notes. The term of each wrap note
will be extended from July 31, 1995 to July 1, 2002 and July 1, 2007
respectively. The $401,910.77 note is collateralized by junior mortgage on
the property. In addition, the affiliate has the option to purchase the wrap
notes for $85,000 at any time prior to the respective maturity dates of the
wrap notes.

     Commencing on July 1,1992, payments on the notes
reverted to the original amounts of $19,442 and $15,454. During the prior two
years the Partnership deferred $214,460 in debit service payments. The
modification gave the Partnership room to deal with the economic difficulties
experienced in the market at the time.

     In February, 1991, Amrecorp Realty Inc., resigned as the Managing
General Partner of the Partnership. As was communicated to all limited
partners, this step was taken in order to minimize any effect that Amrecorp's
financial difficulties might have on the partnership. Management of the
Partnership's assets is performed by Univesco, Inc., a Texas corporation,
Robert J. Werra, CEO.

     On November 12, 1993 the Partnership refinanced the property's secured
debt with an 8.15%, ten year, mortgage loan from Lexington Mortgage Company.
The $3,250,000 mortgage loan provides for monthly payments of $415,000.
Based on an amortized schedule of 300 months with a final payment of the
entire remaining principal balance in December, 2003. The proceeds of this
new loan were used to pay off the $2,500,000 and $2,300,000 mortgage notes
which previously held the first mortgage position. The old first mortgagee
provided a discount of approximately ten percent of the outstanding principal
balances of two old notes. The balance of funds needed to retire the old
notes (approximately $100,000) were provided by Robert J. Werra. In addition
Robert J. Werra exercised his option in the property's wrap mortgage notes.
The new lender prohibited subordinate debt. To meet this requirement the
subordinate debt held by Mr. Werra was converted to a class of equity with
the same terms and conditions as it possessed as debt. The wrap mortgage
lender would not agree to the change in status so Mr. Werra paid $85,000 to
complete his purchase of the wrap notes and now holds an equity position in
the partnership as a Special Limited partner.

     The partnership agreement was amended by vote of the limited partners
to include the appointment of a new corporate general partner, LBAL, Inc.,
a Texas corporation wholly owned by Robert J. Werra.


     While it is the General Partners primary intention to operate and manage
the existing real estate investment, the General Partner also continually
evaluates this investment in light of current economic conditions and trends
to determine if this assets should be considered for disposal. At this time,
there is no plan to dispose of Las Brisas Apartments.

     As of September 30, 1998,  the Partnership had $11,785 in cash and cash
equivalents as compared to $5,212 as of December 31, 1997. The net increase
in cash of $6,573  was due to cash flow from property operations.

     The property is encumbered by a non-recourse mortgage with a principal
balance of $3,018,527 as of September 30, 1998.  The mortgage payable bears
interest at 8.15% and is payable in monthly installments of principal and
interest until December 2003 when a lump-sum payment of approximately
$2,642,000 is due.  The required principal reductions for the three years
ending December 31, 2002, are $62,363, $67,640, and $73,363, respectively.

For the foreseeable future, the Partnership anticipates that mortgage
principal payments (excluding balloon mortgage payments), improvements and
capital expenditures will be funded by net cash from operations. The primary
source ofcapital to fund future Partnership acquisitions and balloon mortgage
payments  will be proceeds from the sale financing or refinancing of the
Property.

The $1,620,231 in Special Limited Partner equity is the result of previous
funding for operating deficits and other partner loans made to the
Partnership by a related entity. These loans were reclassified to equity
during 1993.  The Special Limited Partner has first right to all net
operating cash flows and net proceeds from disposals of assets to the
extent of the Special Limited Partners distribution preference.  During 1997
and 1996, the Special Limited Partner received distributions from the
Partnership totaling $183,000 and $195,002, respectively.
