ITEM 1.           SECURITY AND SUBJECT COMPANY.

                  The  name of the  subject  company  is CIGNA  Income  Realty-I
Limited  Partnership,  a Delaware limited partnership (the  "Partnership").  The
address of the  Partnership's  principal  executive offices is 900 Cottage Grove
Road, South Building,  Bloomfield,  Connecticut 06002. The title of the class of
equity   securities  to  which  this  statement  relates  is  units  of  limited
partnership interest in the Partnership (the "Units").

ITEM 2.           TENDER OFFER OF THE BIDDER.

                  This  Statement  relates to a tender  offer by Everest  Realty
Investors,  LLC, a  California  limited  liability  company (the  "Bidder"),  to
purchase  up to 80,000 of the Units at a purchase  price of $115 per Unit,  less
the amount of any Distributions (as defined in the Offer to Purchase referred to
below) per Unit, if any, made by the Partnership  after any  Distributions  made
after the distribution  from operations for the third quarter of 1996 and before
the date on which the Bidder purchases the Units tendered  pursuant to the Offer
(as defined below) and less any  Partnership  transfer fees,  upon the terms and
subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated November 18,
1996 (the "Offer to Purchase"), and the related Agreement of Transfer and Letter
of Transmittal (the "Letter of Transmittal",  which,  together with the Offer to
Purchase,  constitute  the  "Offer").  The  address  of the  Bidder's  principal
executive office, according to the Offer to Purchase, is 3280 E.
Foothill Blvd., #320, Pasadena, California 91107.

ITEM 3.           IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

                  (a)      Name and Business Address.  The person filing this 
Statement is the Partnership, the name and business address of which are set
forth in Item 1 above.

                  (b)  Arrangements  with  Executive   Officers,   Directors  or
Affiliates.  Certain  contracts,  agreements,  arrangements  and  understandings
between the  Partnership  and its  affiliates or their  respective  officers and
directors are described in the Partnership's  Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended  December  31,  1995,  in Item 10  ("Directors  and  Executive
Officers of the Registrant"), Item 12 ("Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial
Owners  and  Management"),  and  Item 13  ("Certain  Relationships  and  Related
Transactions").  A copy of such sections of the Partnership's Form 10-K is filed
as Exhibit 1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

                  (c)  Arrangements  with the Bidder or  Affiliates.  On May 28,
1996,  Everest  Investors  3, LLC  ("Everest  3"),  an  affiliate  of the Bidder
according to the Offer to Purchase, commenced an offer to purchase up to 4.9% of
the  outstanding  Units of the Partnership for a purchase price of $80 per Unit,
less any distributions made by the Partnership after April 30, 1996. Pursuant to
such  offer,  Everest 3 received  tenders  for an  aggregate  of  1,822.9  Units
(representing  approximately  .93% of the outstanding Units of the Partnership).
Everest 3 submitted  Agreements  of Transfer  to the  Partnership  to effect the
acquisition of such 1,822.9 Units. The Partnership  initially refused to process
the submitted transfers on the grounds that



## NY28/COLLO/72831.25

<PAGE>



Everest 3 had not  complied  with the  requirements  of the Limited  Partnership
Agreement  dated as of October 15, 1985,  pursuant to which the  Partnership was
formed (as amended or supplemented,  the "Partnership  Agreement"),  relating to
the transfer.  Everest 3 disputed this position and on November 7, 1996, entered
into  an  agreement  with  the  General  Partner  of  the  Partnership  and  the
Partnership's  transfer  agent pursuant to which (i) the  Partnership  agreed to
accept Everest 3's Agreement of Transfer,  (ii) Everest 3 would be recognized as
a substitute  limited  partner for 849.9 Units  effective as of October 1, 1996,
and for an  additional  973 Units  effective  as of November 1, 1996,  and (iii)
Everest  3 would  indemnify  the  Partnership,  the  General  Partner  and their
affiliates,  pay the  Partnership's  transfer  fee and jointly  request with the
General Partner that certain  tendering  limited  partners execute and deliver a
properly executed  Partnership  transfer form. Except as set forth above, to the
Partnership's knowledge, neither the Partnership nor its affiliates are party to
any past, present or proposed material contracts, arrangements,  understandings,
relationships,  or  negotiations  with the  Bidder  or its  executive  officers,
directors or affiliates.

ITEM 4.           THE SOLICITATION OR RECOMMENDATION.

                  (a)  This  Statement   relates  to  a  recommendation  by  the
Partnership  for  holders  of  Units  to  reject  the  Offer.  A  letter  to the
Unitholders of the Partnership communicating the Partnership's recommendation is
filed as Exhibit 2 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

                  (b) The  Partnership  has  recommended  rejection of the Offer
primarily for two reasons:  (1) the Partnership believes that the Offer price of
$115 per  Unit,  less  certain  amounts,  is  inadequate;  and (2) the  Offer to
purchase  is limited to 80,000  Units,  representing  only  approximately  forty
percent  (40%)  of  outstanding  Units.  In  reaching  its  determination,   the
Partnership considered a number of factors, including:

                           (i) Based on the  information set forth more fully in
                  the  Partnership's  Quarterly  Report  on  Form  10-Q  for the
                  quarter ended  September 30, 1996 (a copy of which is attached
                  hereto as Exhibit 3 and incorporated herein by reference), and
                  on the General Partner's estimate of property values as of the
                  date hereof,  the  Partnership  is estimated to have a current
                  net  asset  value  of  approximately  $167  per  Unit  (before
                  deducting  expenses  relating to the sale of the Partnership's
                  properties and liquidating the  Partnership).  The Offer price
                  of $115 (before deducting certain  transactional  costs, which
                  will reduce the net value of the Offer to Unitholders) is only
                  sixty-nine  percent  (69%)  of  the  net  asset  value,  which
                  represents a  significant  discount  from the net asset value.
                  Based on these  estimates,  the Partnership  believes that the
                  Offer price is inadequate.  The net asset value is an estimate
                  of the amount Unitholders of the Partnership would receive per
                  Unit if the Partnership's  assets were sold at their appraised
                  values without  reduction for selling expenses as of the close
                  of the year,  and sales proceeds along with the other funds of
                  the  Partnership  were  distributed  in a  liquidation  of the
                  Partnership. There can be no assurance that



## NY28/COLLO/72831.25
                                                        -2-

<PAGE>



                  the  estimated  net  asset  value  will  be  realized  by  the
                  Partnership  or   Unitholders   upon   liquidation,   or  that
                  Unitholders  would  realize the  estimated  net asset value if
                  they attempted to sell their Units because a public market for
                  the  Units  does not  exist.  However,  as has  been  reported
                  previously   in  the   Partnership's   periodic   reports   to
                  Unitholders,  following a decline in the late 1980's and early
                  1990's,  real  estate  markets  are  experiencing  a period of
                  recovery as  evidenced  by an  increase  in the  Partnership's
                  estimated  net asset value in each of the past three (3) years
                  (see  Exhibit 4  attached  hereto and  incorporated  herein by
                  reference).   It  is  the  General  Partner's  view  that  the
                  Partnership's  net asset  value will  continue  to increase as
                  rental rates  increase  and  occupancy  levels  stabilize in a
                  continuing real estate market recovery.

                           (ii)  The  Partnership  has  been  considering,   and
                  continues  to  consider,   various  alternatives  designed  to
                  maximize value to Unitholders.  In this connection,  while the
                  Partnership  has not yet  determined  whether a disposition of
                  all or any substantial  part of its assets at this time is the
                  appropriate   way  to  proceed,   the   Partnership  has  been
                  approached by and, through the General  Partner,  is currently
                  engaged in  discussions  with a  potential  purchaser  for the
                  possible  sale of all of the  assets  and  liabilities  of the
                  Partnership.   See  Item  7(a),   "Certain   Negotiations  and
                  Transactions of the Subject  Company"  elsewhere  herein.  The
                  Partnership  will  continue  to  explore  these   alternatives
                  because it believes that a return to  Unitholders in excess of
                  the Offer  price of $115 per Unit is  obtainable.  Of  course,
                  there  can  be  no  assurance  at  this  time  that  any  such
                  transaction  will be  consummated,  as discussions are ongoing
                  and  approval  of the holders of a majority of the Units would
                  be  required.   Accordingly,   while  actively  exploring  the
                  prospect  of a  near-term  sale  of  all  of  the  assets  and
                  liabilities of the  Partnership for an amount that would yield
                  a return in excess of the Offer price as outlined  above,  the
                  Partnership   intends   to   continue   its  plan  of  orderly
                  liquidation and wrap-up of the Partnership's  business over an
                  estimated  period  of three to four  years  by  continuing  to
                  maintain stable occupancy rates (see Exhibit 5 attached hereto
                  and  incorporated  herein by reference),  controlling  leasing
                  exposure  (see  Exhibit 6  attached  hereto  and  incorporated
                  herein  by  reference),   maintaining  steady  cash  flow  and
                  distributions  (see Exhibit 7 attached hereto and incorporated
                  herein  by  reference)  and  positioning   the   Partnership's
                  properties  for a sale that will yield the maximum  attainable
                  value to Unitholders.

                           (iii) The  Offer is to  purchase  only  80,000 of the
                  outstanding  Units,   representing  only  approximately  forty
                  percent  (40%)  of  all  outstanding  Units.  Accordingly,   a
                  majority of Unitholders will not have an opportunity to tender
                  all of their Units  pursuant to the Offer.  Under the terms of
                  the Offer,  if more than 80,000 of the  outstanding  Units are
                  tendered while the Offer remains open, the Bidder will acquire
                  only a portion of each tendering  Unitholder's Units, on a pro
                  rata basis. Hence, no Unitholder,  regardless of the timing or
                  the terms of



## NY28/COLLO/72831.25
                                                        -3-

                  his or her tender,  can be assured of  disposing of all of his
                  or her Units  under the terms of the Offer,  even if the Offer
                  were consummated.

ITEM 5.           PERSONS RETAINED, EMPLOYED OR TO BE COMPENSATED.

                  No person or class of persons has been employed or retained or
is to be  compensated  by the  Partnership or any person acting on its behalf to
make  solicitations  or  recommendations  to Unitholders in connection  with the
Offer.  No director,  executive  officer or employee of the  Partnership  or any
affiliate  of the  Partnership  will  be  additionally  compensated  for  making
solicitations  or  recommendations  to Unitholders in connection with the Offer,
but  may  be  reimbursed  for  out-of-pocket  expenses  incurred  in  connection
therewith.

ITEM 6.           RECENT TRANSACTIONS AND INTENT WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES.

                  (a) The  Partnership  has not effected any  transaction in the
Units during the 60-day period prior to the date of this Statement.  To the best
of the Partnership's  knowledge, no executive officer,  director or affiliate of
the  Partnership  has  effected any  transaction  in the Units during the 60-day
period prior to the date of this Statement. The Partnership has no subsidiaries.

                  (b) To the best of the  Partnership's  knowledge,  neither the
Partnership nor any executive officer,  director or affiliate of the Partnership
intends to tender any Units  which are held of record or  beneficially  owned by
such persons to the Bidder pursuant to the Offer.

ITEM 7.           CERTAIN NEGOTIATIONS AND TRANSACTIONS BY THE SUBJECT COMPANY.

                  (a) The Partnership  has been  approached by and,  through the
General Partner of the Partnership,  is currently  engaged in negotiations  with
Koll General Partner Services ("Koll") in connection with a proposed purchase of
all of the assets and liabilities of the Partnership. Koll has made an offer, on
behalf of Glenborough Realty Trust  Incorporated,  to purchase all of the assets
and liabilities of the Partnership,  as reflected on the Partnership's  June 30,
1996  balance  sheet for a purchase  price of  $28,000,000,  an amount  equal to
approximately  ninety  percent  (90%) of the net asset value as of December  31,
1995. This offer is subject to the requisite  approval of the Unitholders  under
the Partnership Agreement and receipt of a fee of $560,000 at closing. There can
be  no  assurance  at  this  time  that  a  sale  to  Glenborough  Realty  Trust
Incorporated,  or any  other  alternative,  will be  consummated;  however,  the
Partnership intends to continue these negotiations with Koll and to consider any
other alternative that may become available for enhancing value to Unitholders.

                  (b)  None.

ITEM 8.           ADDITIONAL INFORMATION TO BE FURNISHED.

                  None.

ITEM 13.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

         The General Partner of the Partnership is generally entitled to receive
l%  of  cash  distributions,  subordinated  to a  priority  distribution  of  6%
non-cumulative, non-compounded return to the limited


<PAGE>


partners on their  adjusted  invested  capital  and l% of profits or losses.  In
1995,  the General  Partner  received no cash  distributions  and a share of the
Partnership's  net  income of  $17,030.  Reference  is also made to the Notes to
Consolidated   Financial  Statements  included  in  this  annual  report  for  a
description of such  distributions  and  allocations.  The  relationship  of the
General  Partner (and its directors and officers) to its affiliates is set forth
in Item 10.

         CII provided asset management  services to the Partnership  during 1995
for the Woodlands Tech Center,  Westford  Corporate Center and Piedmont Plaza at
fees  calculated  at 6% of gross  revenues  collected  less  amounts  earned  by
independent  third party  property  management  companies  contracted  by CII on
behalf of the Partnership.  For Overlook Apartments fees are calculated at 5% of
gross revenues collected less amounts earned by independent third party property
management  companies  contracted by CII on behalf of the Partnership.  In 1995,
CII earned asset  management  fees amounting to $116,633 for such  services,  of
which  $18,670  was unpaid as of  December  31,  1995.  Independent  third party
property  managers  earned  $194,007 of  management  fees,  of which $11,350 was
unpaid as of December 31, 1995.

         A  nonrecurring  acquisition  fee for  evaluating  and  selecting  real
property to be acquired equal to the lesser of (1) 5% of the Gross Proceeds from
sales of Units,  or (2) the normal and  customary  charges by third  parties for
such services,  is to be paid to CII. To date, no such fees have been paid since
no  payment  is due until  priority  distributions  have been paid as  described
above.  A  subordinated  incentive  management  fee of 9% of adjusted  cash from
operations  will be payable to CII,  but only after the  limited  partners  have
received their priority  distributions  as described  above, the General Partner
has received its 1% distribution  described above and acquisition fees have been
paid.

         The General  Partner and its  affiliates  may be  reimbursed  for their
direct expenses incurred in the administration of the Partnership.  In 1995, the
General Partner and its affiliates were entitled to  reimbursement  for such out
of pocket  expenses  in the amount of  $73,010 of which  $5,863 was unpaid as of
December 31, 1995.

                         [LETTERHEAD OF THE PARTNERSHIP]





                                                               December 2, 1996





                  Re: Everest Realty Investors, LLC Tender Offer

Dear Unitholders:

                  You may have  recently  received  an Offer to  Purchase  dated
November 18, 1996 from  Everest  Realty  Investors,  LLC  ("Everest"),  in which
Everest  offered to purchase  up to 80,000  (40%) of the  currently  outstanding
Units of CIGNA Income Realty-I  Limited  Partnership  (the  "Partnership")  at a
purchase  price of $115 per Unit less  certain  adjustments  and  expenses  (the
"Everest Offer").

                  THE PARTNERSHIP RECOMMENDS THAT UNITHOLDERS REJECT THE EVEREST
OFFER AND NOT TENDER THEIR UNITS TO EVEREST.

                  Enclosed is a copy of the Partnership's  Schedule 14D-9, filed
today with the Securities and Exchange Commission,  in which the reasons and the
basis for the Partnership's recommendation that you reject the Everest Offer are
explained more fully. To summarize:

         o        The General Partner estimates that the  Partnership's  current
                  net asset value is  approximately  $167 per Unit;  the Everest
                  Offer  provides  for a  purchase  price of only  $115 per Unit
                  (less certain adjustments and expenses),  less than 69% of the
                  current net asset value.

         o        The Partnership is currently  engaged in discussions with Koll
                  General Partner Services ("Koll") regarding a possible sale of
                  the Partnership  assets.  Koll has made an offer, on behalf of
                  Glenborough Realty Trust Incorporated,  to purchase all of the
                  assets and  liabilities  of the  Partnership  for $28 million,
                  which  represents  approximately  ninety  percent (90%) of the
                  Partnership's  estimated  net asset value as of  December  31,
                  1995 (the "Koll Proposal"). While the Partnership is not



## NY28/COLLO/72831.25
                                                        -8-

<PAGE>



                  yet prepared to recommend such a transaction, and there can be
                  no  assurance  at this  time  that the Koll  Proposal  will be
                  consummated,   the  Partnership   intends  to  continue  these
                  discussions with Koll, and to explore other  alternatives that
                  may become  available,  because it  believes  that a return to
                  Unitholders  in excess of the Everest  Offer price of $115 per
                  Unit is obtainable.

         o        The  Everest   Offer  is  to  purchase  up  to  80,000  Units,
                  representing only  approximately 40% of all outstanding Units.
                  Accordingly,  the Everest Offer is not available to a majority
                  of  Unitholders,  and no Unitholder,  regardless of when he or
                  she  responds,  can be assured of  disposing of all his or her
                  Units under the terms of the Everest Offer.  By contrast,  the
                  Koll Proposal, if consummated, would provide for a sale of all
                  of the assets and liabilities of the Partnership.

                  This letter merely summarizes the Partnership's recommendation
as explained in the enclosed Schedule 14D-9, and is qualified by the information
set forth therein;  accordingly,  you are urged to read the enclosed Schedule in
its entirety.

                  If  you  sell  your  interest  in  the  Partnership,   it  may
constitute  a taxable  event to you.  Accordingly,  if you wish to consider  the
Everest Offer notwithstanding the foregoing recommendation,  please consult your
adviser to review your personal tax situation before accepting the Everest Offer
or tendering any of your Units.

                  Please call the  undersigned  with any  questions you may have
regarding the Everest Offer, the information set forth in the enclosed  Schedule
14D-9, the status of your investment, or any other related matter.

                                   Sincerely,

                                   CIGNA INCOME REALTY-I LIMITED

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)


     Readers of this  quarterly  report  should refer to CIGNA  INCOME  REALTY-I
LIMITED  PARTNERSHIP'S ("the Partnership")  audited financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 1995 which are included in the Partnership's 1995 Annual
Report,  as certain footnote  disclosures  which would  substantially  duplicate
those contained in such audited financial statements have been omitted from this
report.

1.   BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

A)   BASIS OF PRESENTATION:  The accompanying financial statements were prepared
     in accordance with generally accepted  accounting  principles,  and reflect
     management's estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts. It
     is the  opinion  of  management  that the  financial  statements  presented
     reflect  all  the  adjustments  necessary  for a fair  presentation  of the
     financial condition and results of operations.

B)   RECENT  ACCOUNTING   PRONOUNCEMENT:   In  1995,  the  Financial  Accounting
     Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121,
     "Accounting  for the  Impairment  of Long-Lived  Assets and for  Long-Lived
     Assets to be  Disposed  Of" (the  "Statement").  The  Statement  requires a
     writedown  to fair  value  when  long-lived  assets to be held and used are
     impaired.  Long-lived  assets to be disposed of, including real estate held
     for sale,  must be carried at the lower of cost or fair value less costs to
     sell.  In addition,  the  Statement  prohibits  depreciation  of long-lived
     assets to be disposed.  Adoption of the  Statement in the first  quarter of
     1996 had no effect on the  Partnership's  results of operations,  liquidity
     and financial condition.

C)   CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS:  Short-term investments with a maturity of three
     months or less at the time of purchase are reported as cash equivalents.

5.   SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     On November 15, 1996, the  Partnership  paid a distribution  of $624,000 to
the limited partners.

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

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     At September 30, 1996, the Partnership's  cash and cash equivalents and the
Partnership's  share of cash  and cash  equivalents  from  the  Westford  Office
Venture totaled $1,721,611 and $1,309,378,  respectively. The Partnership's cash
and cash  equivalents  were  available for working  capital  requirements,  cash
reserves and  distributions to partners.  The Partnership paid the first quarter
cash  distribution  of  $684,000 or $3.42 per Unit on May 15,  1996,  the second
quarter cash  distribution of $684,000 or $3.42 per Unit on August 15, 1996, and
the third  quarter cash  distribution  of $624,000 or $3.12 per Unit on November
15,  1996,  representative  of each  quarter's  adjusted  cash from  operations,
inclusive of adjustments to cash reserves. The Partnership's  distributions from
operations for the remainder of the year should reflect actual operating results
subject to changes in reserves for liabilities or leasing risk.

     Piedmont Plaza Shopping Center  produced  adjusted cash from operations for
the third quarter of $119,000 after $5,400 of leasing costs. During the quarter,
the  property  signed  a  renewal  for  1,200  square  feet  and two new  leases
representing  4,600 square feet,  increasing leased space to 97%. In reaction to
the reluctance of the property's  anchor,  Builders  Square,  to pay 100% of its
billed common area  maintenance  (CAM)  charges,  the  Partnership  has set up a
reserve for  Builders  Square CAM accounts  receivable  and has adjusted the CAM
billing accrual for 1996. The total impact of the CAM receivable  adjustments to
the third quarter income statement was  approximately  $53,000.  The Partnership
plans to hold the property  for the  short-term  to allow the retail  market and
K-Mart (the parent  company of the  property's  anchor  tenant) to show signs of
improvement.  The Partnership also plans to remain open to opportunities to sell
the property if investor interest returns.

     At Westford Corporate Center,  adjusted cash from operations for the second
quarter was $270,000 ($199,600 attributable to the Partnership's  interest). The
property remains 100% occupied.  No capital  expenditures  have been planned for
the year. During the first quarter,  a portion of the 1995 capital  expenditures
was  reimbursed  by the tenants.  In addition,  adjustments  were made to reduce
other  income (and the portion of account  receivable  representing  1995 tenant
reimbursement  billings)  based on the final  calculation  of actual 1995 tenant
reimbursable  operating expenses. The 1996 estimated billings for tenant expense
reimbursement are based on the annual budget.

     Adjusted cash from  operations at Woodlands  Tech for the third quarter was
$85,000 after $61,700 of capital  improvements  and tenant leasing costs,  and a
$40,000  reduction to cash reserves for leasing  costs.  After  factoring in the
quarter's leasing activity, the property's leased occupancy ended the quarter at
93%. During the third quarter,  the property met its leasing goal by leasing the
10,069 square foot vacancy from the first quarter as well as executing a renewal
with a tenant  occupying  3,321  square  feet.  Also,  operations  for the third
quarter benefitted from the move in of a new 7,522 square foot tenant on July 1,
1996. The lease was executed during the second quarter.  Leasing costs estimates
for the remainder of the year have been estimated at approximately $63,000.

     Overlook's average occupancy dropped from 98% for the second quarter to 92%
for the third quarter. Year-to-date occupancy averaged 96% for both 1996 and for
the same period of the prior year. The drop in occupancy has been  attributed to
heavy competition from new projects currently in lease-up, as well as the timing
of tenant turnover.  Adjusted cash from operations for the third quarter totaled
approximately  $239,000  including $14,000 of capital  expenditures and a $5,000
reduction to cash reserves for capital  improvements.  Capital expenditures have
been  estimated  to total  approximately  $18,000 to $22,000  for the year.  The
market  in  which  Overlook  operates  continues  to  expand,   adding  high-end
multi-family,  new single family  developments and retail. Six properties in the
North Scottsdale market are currently in the lease-up phase and competition from
home  ownership  is  strong as  single  family  home  development  continues  to
increase.  In addition to completed  projects,  approximately  600  multi-family
units are under construction and approximately 1,100 more units are planned. The
Partnership is currently  reviewing the property's  current and estimated future
operations, rental rate trends in the market, as well as the property's position
in the market, to determine the best window

of  opportunity  to time a sale of the  property.  Considering  that the planned
liquidation  of the  Partnership's  properties  is  relatively  short-term,  the
Partnership may conclude to pursue a sale as early as the first half of 1997.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Rental income decreased approximately $40,000 and $88,000 for the three and
nine months ended  September 30, 1996,  respectively,  as compared with the same
periods of 1995.  Woodland Tech lost a large tenant in the first quarter of 1996
and  received a $22,000  lease  termination  fee in the second  quarter of 1995,
leading to the $19,000 and $86,000  decrease in rental  income for the three and
nine months,  respectively.  A tenant  change at Westford  that included a lower
base  rate  contributed  approximately  $23,000  and  $52,000  to the  decrease.
Overlook  recorded a $41,000 increase for the nine months,  offsetting a portion
of the rental income decrease.  The rental rate increases implemented throughout
the year at Overlook  accounted for the improvement over the nine-month  period,
and also compensated for the third quarter drop in average occupancy.

     Other income  decreased  for the three and nine months ended  September 30,
1996,  as  compared  with the same  periods  of 1995.  At  Westford,  a  $42,000
adjustment was recorded in the first quarter of 1996 because the  calculation of
actual 1995 billable tenant expense recoveries for common area maintenance (CAM)
was less than the  estimated  amount  accrued  and billed  throughout  1995.  In
addition,  the amount billed to tenants for property taxes declined $14,000 as a
result of Westford's lower tax expense.  At Piedmont,  the calculation of actual
billable CAM was completed  during the third quarter 1996 and an adjustment  was
recorded to reduce other income and accounts receivable. Based on the adjustment
for 1995 CAM billings,  the Partnership  reduced the 1996 CAM accrual during the
third quarter. The two CAM adjustments reduced other income at Piedmont Plaza by
$23,000 for the three and nine months ending September 30, 1996.

     Interest income decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1996, as compared  with the same periods of 1995,  due to a decrease in interest
rates on short term investments.

     Property  operating  expenses  decreased  slightly for the three months and
increased  for the nine months ended  September  30, 1996,  as compared with the
same periods of 1995. In the first  quarter,  a harsh winter caused snow removal
and  maintenance  costs to increase at both Westford and Woodlands Tech. Also in
the first quarter,  a landscaping  project that was previously  capitalized  was
reclassified to an expense account at Westford.  Partially  offsetting the first
quarter increase was a decrease in maintenance  expense at Piedmont Plaza due to
a first quarter 1995 exterior  painting project.  During the second quarter,  an
HVAC project at Westford and a tax refund  recorded in 1995 at Woodlands  led to
further increases.  In general, fewer carpet replacements at Overlook Apartments
partially  offset the  increase  during  the first half of the year and  heavily
contributed  to the  decrease  for the  third  quarter.  For the  three and nine
months,  real estate  taxes are up at Piedmont and Overlook and down at Westford
resulting in an overall increase.

     General and administrative expenses increased for the three and nine months
ended  September 30, 1996, as compared with the previous year,  primarily due to
an increase in payroll costs at Overlook Apartments and legal costs at Piedmont.

     The increase in fees and  reimbursements  to affiliates for the nine months
ended  September 30, 1996, as compared with the same period of 1995,  was due to
higher reimbursable  expenses than the previous year. The decrease for the three
months ended September 30, 1996 was due to timing of reimbursable expenses.

     The decrease in depreciation and amortization for the three and nine months
ended  September 30, 1996, as compared with the previous year, was primarily the
result  of the  expiration  of  useful  lives  of  certain  assets  at  Overlook
Apartments,  Woodlands Tech, and Piedmont Plaza. Offsetting the decrease for the
three months at Woodlands Tech was depreciation on tenant

improvements placed in service in 1996 and late 1995.

     The decrease in the venture partner's share of Venture's operation in 1996,
as  compared  with  1995,  was the result of a decrease  in  Westford's  overall
results as described herein.

     Provision  for doubtful  accounts  increased  for the three and nine months
ended  September 30, 1996, as compared with the same periods of 1995. The anchor
at Piedmont  Plaza has not yet paid its 1995 CAM  billing and the  Partnership's
property  manager has estimated that 100% of the billing may not be collectible.
Based on the problem with the 1995 Piedmont Plaza anchor tenant CAM billing, the
Partnership  has  established  a reserve for both the 1995 billed amount and the
1996 accrued amounts.
