NOTE 1.
- -------

McNeil Real  Estate Fund XXIII,  L.P.  (the  "Partnership"),  formerly  known as
Southmark Realty Partners III, Ltd., was organized on March 4, 1985 as a limited
partnership under provisions of the California  Revised Limited  Partnership Act
to acquire  and  operate  residential  properties.  The  general  partner of the
Partnership is McNeil Partners, L.P. (the "General Partner"), a Delaware limited
partnership, an affiliate of Robert A. McNeil ("McNeil"). The principal place of
business for the Partnership  and the General Partner is 13760 Noel Road,  Suite
600, LB70, Dallas, Texas 75240.

In the opinion of management,  the financial  statements reflect all adjustments
necessary for a fair  presentation of the Partnership's  financial  position and
results  of  operations.  All  adjustments  were of a normal  recurring  nature.
However,  the results of operations  for the six months ended June 30, 1998, are
not  necessarily  indicative  of the results to be expected  for the year ending
December 31, 1998.

NOTE 2.
- -------

The  financial  statements  should  be read in  conjunction  with the  financial
statements  contained in the  Partnership's  Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the
year  ended  December  31,  1997,  and the  notes  thereto,  as  filed  with the
Securities and Exchange  Commission,  which is available upon request by writing
to McNeil Real Estate  XXIII,  L.P.,  c/o McNeil Real Estate  Management,  Inc.,
Investor Services, 13760 Noel Road, Suite 600, LB70, Dallas, Texas 75240.

NOTE 3.
- -------

The  Partnership  pays property  management fees equal to 5% of the gross rental
receipts for its property to McNeil Real Estate Management,  Inc. ("McREMI"), an
affiliate of the General Partner,  for providing property management and leasing
services.

The  Partnership  reimburses  McREMI  for  its  costs,  including  overhead,  of
administering the Partnership's affairs.

The  Partnership  incurs asset  management fees which are payable to the General
Partner.  Through  1999,  the asset  management  fee is  calculated as 1% of the
Partnership's  tangible asset value. Tangible asset value is determined by using
the greater of (i) an amount calculated by applying a capitalization  rate of 9%
to the  annualized  net  operating  income of each  property  or (ii) a value of
$10,000 per apartment unit to arrive at the property  tangible asset value.  The
property  tangible  asset  value is then  added to the book  value of all  other
assets excluding  intangible items. The fee percentage  decreases  subsequent to
1999.  Total accrued but unpaid asset  management fees in the amount of $251,734
were outstanding at June 30, 1998.

Compensation  and  reimbursements  paid to or  accrued  for the  benefit  of the
General Partner and its affiliates are as follows:

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

FINANCIAL CONDITION
- -------------------

The  Partnership  reported a net loss of $34,229 and $76,994 for the three month
and six month periods ended June 30, 1998. The losses were 3.2% and 8.6% greater
than the losses reported for the same periods of 1997, respectively.

The occupancy  rate at Harbour Club II Apartments  was 94% at June 30, 1998. The
occupancy  rate at December  31,  1997 was 89%.  Operations  at Harbour  Club II
Apartments  for the  second  quarter  provided  sufficient  cash flow to pay the
property's  operating  expenses as well as debt service on the related  mortgage
note. However, the property is in need of major capital improvements in order to
compete  effectively  in  its  local  market.  The  Partnership  does  not  have
sufficient cash reserves to fund the needed capital  improvements,  nor does the
property  generate  sufficient  cash flow from  operations  to fund such capital
improvements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

Revenue:

The  Partnership's  rental revenue increased $23,840 or 6.9% and $30,164 or 4.4%
for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the
same periods of 1997.  The  increase in rental  revenue was mostly the result of
increased  rental  rates  at  Harbour  Club II  Apartments.  Rental  rates  were
increased an average of 3.1% beginning in January 1998. In addition to increased
rental rates,  rental  losses,  such as vacancy,  decreased 6.6% for the periods
ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the same periods of 1997.

<PAGE>
Interest revenue increased 28% and 57% for the three month and six month periods
ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the same  periods of 1997.  The  increase was
due  to  a  increased   amounts  of  cash  and  cash  equivalents   invested  in
interest-bearing accounts.

Expenses:

Total Partnership expenses increased $25,680 or 6.8% and $39,123 or 5.1% for the
three  month and six month  periods  ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the same
periods of 1997. Most of the increase was concentrated in repair and maintenance
expense and general and administrative expense.

Repair and maintenance expense increased 22.3% and 13.8% for the three month and
six month  periods  ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the same periods of 1997.
In 1997,  costs  associated  with the  replacement  of appliances  were material
enough to  qualify  for  capitalization  in  accordance  with the  Partnership's
capitalization  policy. Similar costs in 1998 did not qualify for capitalization
and were, therefore, expensed.

General and administrative  expenses increased $10,930 to $20,566 and $16,605 to
$39,473  for the  three  month  and six  month  periods  ended  June  30,  1998,
respectively,  as  compared  to the same  periods  of  1997.  The  increase  was
principally due to costs incurred to explore  alternatives to maximize the value
of the Partnership (see Liquidity and Capital Resources).

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

The  Partnership's  operating  activities  provided  $132,118  for the first six
months of 1998,  a 36%  decrease  from cash flow  provided  during the first six
months of 1997.  An increase in cash  received from tenants was more than offset
by increased payments to suppliers, affiliates and for property taxes.

Cash used for additions to real estate improvements  totaled $79,696 for the six
months  ended  June  30,  1998  an  increase  over  the  $45,834   expended  for
improvements for the +same period of 1997.  Scheduled monthly principal payments
on the Partnership's mortgage note totaled $26,358 for the six months ended June
30, 1998 as compared to $24,461 for the same period of 1997.

Short-term liquidity:

The Partnership's  balance of cash and cash equivalents  amounted to $334,335 at
June  30,  1998,  an  increase  of  $26,064  from the  balance  of cash and cash
equivalents   at  December  31,  1997.   The  General   Partner   considers  the
Partnership's  cash  reserves  adequate  for  anticipated   operations  for  the
remainder of 1998.

Operating  activities  at Harbour  Club II  Apartments  for 1998 are expected to
provide sufficient cash flow for operating expenses,  debt service payments, and
limited capital improvements.  However, Harbour Club II Apartments is in need of
extensive capital  improvements to enable the property to compete effectively in
the local market.  Projected cash flows from  operations will not be adequate to
fund such extensive  capital  improvements.  To date, the  Partnership  has been
unable to secure financing for the needed capital improvements.  The Partnership
has no established lines of credit from outside sources.




<PAGE>
In the past, the General Partner,  at its discretion,  has advanced funds to the
Partnership to fund working  capital  requirements.  The General  Partner is not
obligated to advance funds to the Partnership and there is no assurance that the
Partnership will receive any additional funds.

Long-term liquidity:

The long-term  operating viability of Harbour Club II Apartments is dependent on
the  Partnership's  ability  to fund  substantial  capital  improvements  to the
property. If the Partnership does not liquidate,  as contemplated below, it will
seek to obtain  additional  financing to allow the  completion  of the extensive
capital improvements, which will enable the Partnership to raise rental rates at
the property to market rates.

Harbour Club II Apartments is part of a four-phase  apartment complex located in
Belleville,  Michigan. Phases I and III of the complex are owned by partnerships
affiliated  with the  General  Partner.  Phase  IV is  owned by an  unaffiliated
entity.  McREMI managed all four phases of the complex until December 1992, when
the property management agreement between McREMI and Phase IV was canceled.

As   previously   announced,    the   Partnership   has   retained   PaineWebber
("PaineWebber"),  Incorporated  as its  exclusive  financial  advisor to explore
alternatives  to  maximize  the  value  of the  Partnership  including,  without
limitation,  a  transaction  in  which  limited  partnership  interests  in  the
Partnership are converted into cash. The Partnership,  through PaineWebber,  has
provided  financial and other information to interested parties and is currently
conducting  discussions  with one such party in an attempt to reach a definitive
agreement  with respect to a sale  transaction.  It is possible that the General
Partner  and its  affiliates  will  receive  non-cash  consideration  for  their
ownership  interests in connection  with any such  transaction.  There can be no
assurance that any such agreement will be reached nor the terms thereof.

Distributions

To maintain adequate cash balances of the Partnership,  distributions to Current
Income Unit holders were suspended in 1988.  There have been no distributions to
Growth/Shelter Unit holders. Distributions to Unit holders will remain suspended
for the  foreseeable  future.  The General  Partner will continue to monitor the
cash reserves and working  capital needs of the  Partnership  to determine  when
cash flows will support distributions to the Unit holders.

Forward-Looking Information

Within this document,  certain  statements are made as to the expected occupancy
trends,  financial  condition,  results  of  operations,  and cash  flows of the
Partnership  for  periods  after  June 30,  1998.  All of these  statements  are
forward-looking  statements  made pursuant to the safe harbor  provisions of the
Private  Securities  Litigation  Reform Act of 1995.  These  statements  are not
historical  and  involve  risks  and  uncertainties.  The  Partnership's  actual
occupancy trends, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for
future  periods may differ  materially  due to several  factors.  These  factors
include,  but are not limited to, the  Partnership's  ability to control  costs,
make necessary  capital  improvements,  negotiate the sale or refinancing of its
property, and respond to changing economic and competitive factors.



<PAGE>

Other Information:

Management  has begun to review its  information  technology  infrastructure  to
identify any systems that could be affected by the year 2000  problem.  The year
2000 problem is the result of computer  programs  being written using two digits
rather  than  four to  define  the  applicable  year.  Any  programs  that  have
time-sensitive  software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather
than  the  year  2000.   This  could   result  in  major   systems   failure  or
miscalculations.  The information  systems used by the Partnership for financial
reporting and  significant  accounting  functions  were made year 2000 compliant
during  recent  systems  conversions.  The  Partnership  is in  the  process  of
evaluating the computer systems at its property. The Partnership also intends to
communicate with suppliers, financial institutions and others to coordinate year
2000 issues.  Management  believes that the remediation of any outstanding  year
2000  conversion  issues  will not have a  material  or  adverse  effect  on the
Partnership's operations.
