                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(1)      ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         NATURE OF BUSINESS

         National Housing Partnership Realty Fund IV (the "Partnership") is a
         limited partnership organized on January 8, 1986 under the laws of the
         State of Maryland under the Maryland Revised Uniform Limited
         Partnership Act.  The Partnership was formed for the purpose of
         raising capital by offering and selling limited partnership interests
         and then investing in limited partnerships ("Local Limited
         Partnerships"), each of which owns and operates an existing rental
         housing project which is financed and/or operated with one or more
         forms of rental assistance or financial assistance from the U.S.
         Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD").

         The General Partner raised capital for the Partnership by offering and
         selling to additional limited partners 15,414 investment units at a
         price of $1,000 per unit.  The Partnership acquired limited
         partnership interests of 99% in four Local Limited Partnerships, each
         of which was organized to acquire and operate an existing rental
         housing project.  In addition, the Partnership directly purchased
         Trinity Apartments, a conventionally financed rental apartment
         project.

         BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements reflect all
         adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to
         present a fair statement of the financial condition and results of
         operations for the interim periods presented.  All such adjustments
         are of a normal recurring nature.

         While the General Partner believes that the disclosures presented are
         adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that
         these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
         statements and the notes included in NHP Realty Fund IV's Annual
         Report filed in Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31,
         1994.

(2)      INVESTMENTS IN AND ADVANCES TO LOCAL LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS

         The Partnership owns a 99% limited partnership interest in four Local
         Limited Partnerships.  In addition, the Partnership directly owns
         Trinity Apartments.  Because the Partnership, as a limited partner,
         does not exercise control over the activities of the four Local
         Limited Partnerships in accordance with the partnership agreements,
         the investments in the Local Limited Partnerships are accounted for
         using the equity method.  Thus, the investments (and the advances made
         to the Local Limited Partnerships as discussed below) are carried at
         cost less the Partnership's share of the Local Limited Partnerships'
         losses and distributions.  However, because the Partnership is not
         legally

                        (A MARYLAND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


         liable for the obligations of the Local Limited Partnerships, and is
         not otherwise committed to provide additional support to them, it does
         not recognize losses once its investment, reduced for its share of
         losses and cash distributions, reaches zero in each of the individual
         Local Limited Partnerships.  As of March 31, 1995 and December 31,
         1994 investments in all four Local Limited Partnerships had been
         reduced to zero.  As a result, the Partnership did not recognize
         $359,352 and $413,270 of losses from Local Limited Partnerships during
         the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.  As of
         March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, the Partnership had not
         recognized $5,130,250 and $4,770,898, respectively, of its allocated
         share of cumulative losses from the Local Limited Partnerships in
         which its investment is zero.

         Advances made by the Partnership to the individual Local Limited
         Partnerships are considered part of the Partnership's investment in
         Local Limited Partnerships.  When advances are made, they are charged
         to operations as a loss on investment in the Local Limited Partnership
         using previously unrecognized cumulative losses.  As discussed above,
         due to the cumulative losses incurred by the Local Limited
         Partnerships, the aggregate balance of investments in and advances to
         the Local Limited Partnerships has been reduced to zero at March 31,
         1995 and December 31, 1994.  To the extent these advances are repaid
         by the Local Limited Partnerships in the future, the repayments will
         be credited as distributions and repayments received in excess of
         investments in Local Limited Partnerships.  These advances are carried
         as a payable to the Partnership by the Local Limited Partnerships.

         No working capital advances or repayments occurred between the
         Partnership and the Local Limited Partnerships during the three months
         ended March 31, 1995 and 1994.  The combined amount carried as payable
         to the Partnership by the Local Limited Partnerships was $12,400 as of
         March 31, 1995.

         The following are combined statements of operations for the three
         months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, of the Local
         Limited Partnerships in which the Partnership has invested.  The
         statements are compiled from financial statements of the Local Limited
         Partnerships, prepared on the accrual basis of accounting, as supplied
         by the management agents of the projects, and are unaudited.

(3)      TRANSACTIONS WITH THE GENERAL PARTNER AND AFFILIATES OF THE GENERAL
         PARTNER

         During the three month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, the
         Partnership accrued administrative and reporting fees payable to the
         General Partner in the amount of $28,901 for services provided to the
         Partnership.  The Partnership has not made any payments to the General
         Partner for these fees during the three months ended March 31, 1995
         and 1994.  The amount due the General Partner by the Partnership was
         $904,455 and $875,554 at March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994,
         respectively.

         During the three months ended March 31, 1995, the General Partner made
         working capital advances of $15,714 to the Partnership.  No advances
         were made during the three months ended March 31, 1994.  No repayments
         of working capital advances were made during the three months ended
         March 31, 1995 and 1994.  The amount owed to the General Partner at
         March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, was $1,225,208 and $1,209,494,
         respectively.  Interest is charged on borrowings at the Chase
         Manhattan Bank rate of prime plus 2%.  Accrued interest on this loan
         amounted to $991,746 and

         $933,098 at March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, respectively.  The
         advances will be repaid as cash flow permits or from the sale or
         refinancing of the Local Limited Partnerships.

         Annual partnership administrative fees of $1,875 were accrued on
         behalf of Trinity Apartments during the three months ended March 31,
         1995 and 1994.  These fees are payable to the General Partner without
         interest from cash available for distribution to partners.  The
         balance owed to the General Partner at March 31, 1995, is included in
         Due to General Partner.  No balance was owed to the General Partner at
         December 31, 1994, for these fees.

         The advances and accrued administrative and reporting fees payable to
         the General Partner will be paid as cash flow permits or from proceeds
         generated from the sale or refinancing of one or more of the
         underlying properties of the Local Limited Partnerships.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The properties in which the Partnership has invested, through its investments
in the Local Limited Partnerships, receive one or more forms of assistance from
Federal, state or local governments or agencies.  As a result, the Local
Limited Partnerships' ability to transfer funds either to the Partnership or
among themselves in the form of cash distributions, loans or advances is
generally restricted by these government-assistance programs.  These
restrictions, however, are not expected to impact the Partnership's ability to
meet its cash obligations.

Net cash used in operations for the three months ended March 31, 1995 was
$459,451 as compared to $506,785 for the three months ended March 31, 1994.
The decrease to cash used in operations resulted primarily from a decrease in
operating expenses paid, partially offset by an increase in mortgage note
interest.  Interest on the mortgage note is charged at a variable rate equal to
3.10% above General Electric Capital Corporation's short-term commercial paper
rate.  The interest rate is not capped; therefore, operations of the
partnership are susceptible to changes in interest rates.  As of December 31,
1994, interest was charged at 8.44%.  As of March 31, 1995, interest was being
charged at 9.31%.  In addition, the principal on Trinity's mortgage note
payable is due June 30, 1995.  At such time, if the mortgage is unable to be
extended or refinanced, the Partnership may need to repay the mortgage amount
or sell the property which may result in a loss.  Alternatively, GECC could
foreclose on the property.  The General Partner is currently working with GECC
to extend or refinance the mortgage note.

During the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, the Partnership did not
advance any funds to the Local Limited Partnerships for use as working capital.
At March 31, 1995, the combined amount carried by the Local Limited
Partnerships, as due to the Partnership, amounted to $12,400.  Future advances
made will be charged to operations; likewise, future repayments will be
credited to operations.

Distributions received from Local Limited Partnerships represent the
Partnership's proportionate share of the excess cash available for distribution
from the Local Limited Partnerships.  As a result of the use of the equity
method of accounting for the Partnership's investments, as of March 31, 1995,
investments in all four Local Limited Partnerships had been reduced to zero.
For these investments, cash distributions received are recorded as
distributions received in excess of investment in Local Limited Partnerships.
There were no distributions during the three months ended March 31, 1995 and
1994, respectively.  The receipt of distributions in future quarters is
dependent upon the operations of the underlying properties of the Local Limited
Partnerships.

          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



Cash and cash equivalents amounted to $5,883 at March 31, 1995.  The ability of
the Partnership to meet its on-going cash requirements is dependent on
operations of Trinity Apartments and the future receipt of distributions from
the Local Limited Partnerships or the sale or refinancing of one or more of the
underlying properties of the Local Limited Partnerships.  Cash on hand at March
31, 1995 plus any distributions from the underlying operations of the combined
Local Limited Partnerships is expected to adequately fund the operations of the
Partnership in the current year.

The Partnership currently owes the General Partner $904,455 for administrative
and reporting services performed.  The payment of these unpaid administrative
and reporting fees will most likely be made only when sale or refinancing
proceeds of the underlying properties of the Local Limited Partnerships becomes
available to the partnership.  Given the current nature of the real estate
market, any such sales or refinancings will likely not occur in the near
future.  Any proceeds generated for sales or refinancings after payment of
mortgage obligations, will be distributed in accordance with the Partnership
Agreement.

The Partnership also currently owes the General Partner $1,225,208 plus accrued
interest of $991,746 on advances made to support operations of Trinity
Apartments.  Operations of Trinity Apartments have improved since the
refinancing in 1991 of the underlying mortgage note.  However, ultimate payment
of amounts due to the General Partner will likely occur only from proceeds
generated from the sale of Trinity Apartments.  Any proceeds generated from the
sale, after payment of the mortgage obligations, will be distributed in
accordance with the Partnership Agreement.

Some of the properties in which the Partnership has invested in may be eligible
to participate in the Low Income Housing Preservation and Resident
Homeownership Act of 1990 (LIHPRHA).  LIHPRHA creates a procedure under which
properties assisted under the HUD Section 236 or 221(d)(3) programs may be
eligible to receive financial incentives in return for agreeing to extend their
property's use as low income housing.  Trinity, a 100% conventional property,
and Loring Towers, because of a provision in its mortgage note payable, are not
eligible to participate in LIHPRHA.  Congress and Administration are currently
considering various proposals to significantly reduce or eliminate funding for
the LIHPRHA program, and to restructure various federal housing programs under
the jurisdiction of the Department of Housing and Urban Development.  NHP is
actively working to affect the policy decision being made and to limit any
detrimental effect on its portfolio.  Depending on the final outcome of this
process, however, operations at the Properties and/or the ability to sell or
refinance under LIHPRHA could be affected.

Except for Trinity, all the properties in which the Partnership has invested
carry deferred acquisition notes due to the original owners of the properties.
In the event of a default on these

notes, the noteholders would reassume NHP's and the Partnership's interests in
the Local Limited Partnerships.  Due to the rental market conditions where the
properties are located, the General Partner believes the amounts due on the
acquisition notes may exceed the value to be obtained by having the properties
participate in LIHPRHA or other sale or refinancing opportunities.  The
deferred acquisition notes mature in 2001.

In their audit report dated March 17, 1995, the Partnership's auditors added
two additional "emphasis" paragraphs to their report on the Partnership's 1994
and 1993 financial statements included in the Form 10-K.  The comments made in
the "emphasis" paragraph generally repeat disclosures made by the Partnership
in the footnotes to the 1994 financial statements, primarily notes 4, 6 and 9.
In the first "emphasis" paragraph, the auditors stated that "These issues raise
substantial doubt about Royal Towers Limited Partnership's ability to continue
as a going concern."  Should the Partnership lose its interest in a Local
Limited Partnership, partners in the Partnership may incur adverse tax
consequences.  The impact of the tax consequences is dependent upon each
partner's individual tax situation.  Royal Towers had a high vacancy rate
during 1993 and 1994, although decreased from 1992, and has a significant
amount of payables and only limited resources to pay such items.  NHP's
intentions are to continue managing the property prudently so that it can
maintain positive cash flow.

In the second "emphasis" paragraph, the auditors stated that "the Partnership's
mortgage note payable related to the Trinity Apartments in the amount of
$13,700,000 matures on June 30, 1995," and that "Trinity also has a significant
balance of accounts payable and accrued expenses from rental operations at
December 31, 1994"  The auditors concluded that "These issues raise substantial
doubt about the Partnership's ability to continue as a going concern unless it
is able to generate sufficient cash flows to meet its obligations, sustain its
rental operations and refinance or renegotiate its mortgage note or obtain
sufficient proceeds from the sale of the property to repay its debts."

In prior years, Trinity Apartments, a rental property wholly-owned by the
Partnership, has generated substantial losses from operations which have
resulted in the accumulation of significant accounts payable and accrued
expenses at December 31, 1994 and has also necessitated significant funding
from the general Partner in prior years.  In addition, the Partnership was in
default on its mortgage note on Trinity Apartments during 1990.  The mortgage
note was subsequently refinanced, and operations at Trinity have stabilized.
However, the principal on Trinity's mortgage note payable is due June 30, 1995
(Note 6).  At such time, if the mortgage is unable to be extended or
refinanced, the Partnership may need to repay the mortgage amount or sell the
property which may result in a loss.  Alternatively, GECC could foreclose on
the property.  The General Partner's intentions are to continue to manage
Trinity prudently so that the property can maintain positive cash flows and pay
its general obligations.  The General Partner is currently working with GECC to
extend or refinance the mortgage note.

          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS




RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Partnership has invested as a limited partner in four Local Limited
Partnerships which operate four rental housing properties.  In addition, the
Partnership directly owns Trinity Apartments.  Results of operations are
significantly impacted by the losses on rental operations of Trinity
Apartments, and in prior years, by the Partnership's share of the losses of the
Local Limited Partnerships.  These losses included depreciation and accrued
deferred acquisition note interest expense which are noncash in nature.
Because the investments in and advances to Local Limited Partnerships have been
reduced to zero, the Partnership's share of the operations of the Local Limited
Partnerships is no longer being recorded.

The Partnership's net loss increased to $263,370 for the three months ended
March 31, 1995 from a net loss of $105,562 for the three months ended March 31,
1994.  Net loss per unit of limited partnership interest increased from $7 to
$17 for the 15,414 units outstanding throughout both periods.  The primary
reasons for the increase in net loss is the increase in loss from rental
operations at Trinity Apartments, which was primarily due to an increase in
interest expense, due to overall higher interest rates.  The Partnership did
not recognize $362,982 of its allocated share of losses from the four Local
Limited Partnerships for the three months ended March 31, 1995, as the
Partnership's net carrying basis in these Local Limited Partnerships was
reduced to zero prior years.  The Partnership's share of losses from the Local
Limited Partnerships, if not limited to its investment account balance, would
have decreased $53,918 between periods, primarily due to a decrease in
operating expenses.
