                      ANGELES OPPORTUNITY PROPERTIES, LTD.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Angeles
Opportunity Properties, Ltd. (the "Partnership") have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of
Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of Angeles Realty Corporation II (the
"General Partner"), all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating
results for the three month period ended March 31, 1999, are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending
December 31, 1999.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's annual report on
Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998.

Principles of Consolidation:  The consolidated financial statements of the
Partnership include its 99% limited partnership interests in New Lake Meadows LP
and Lakewood AOPL Ltd.  The Partnership may remove the general partner of each
of these 99% owned partnerships; therefore, the partnerships are controlled and
consolidated by the Partnership.  All significant interpartnership balances have
been eliminated.

NOTE B - TRANSFER OF CONTROL


Pursuant to a series of transactions which closed on October 1, 1998 and
February 26, 1999, Insignia Financial Group, Inc. and Insignia Properties Trust
merged into Apartment Investment and Management Company ("AIMCO"), a publicly
traded real estate investment trust, with AIMCO being the surviving corporation.
As a result, AIMCO ultimately acquired 100% ownership interest in the General
Partner.  The General Partner does not believe that this transaction will have a
material effect on the affairs and operations of the Partnership.

NOTE C - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED PARTIES

The Partnership has no employees and is dependent on the General Partner and its
affiliates for the management and administration of all Partnership activities.
The Partnership Agreement provides for certain payments to affiliates for
services and as reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by affiliates on
behalf of the Partnership. The following transactions with the General Partner
and its affiliates were incurred during the three months ended March 31, 1999
and 1998:


                                                              1999      1998

                                                              (in thousands)

  Property management fees (included in operating expense)   $ 32      $ 30

  Reimbursement for services of affiliates (included

    in general and administrative expenses)                    20        14



During the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, affiliates of the General
Partner were entitled to receive 5% of gross receipts from all of the
Partnership's properties as compensation for providing property management
services.  The Partnership paid to such affiliates approximately $32,000 and
$30,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

An affiliate of the General Partner received reimbursements of accountable
administrative expense amounting to approximately $20,000 and $14,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

NOTE D - SEGMENT INFORMATION

Description of the types of products and services from which the reportable
segment derives its revenues: The Partnership has one reportable segment:
residential properties.  The Partnership's residential property segment consists
of two apartment complexes in the state of Texas.  The Partnership rents
apartment units to tenants for terms that are typically twelve months or less.

Measurement of segment profit or loss:  The Partnership evaluates performance
based on net income. The accounting policies of the reportable segment
are the same as those of the Partnership as described in the Partnership's
annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1998.

Factors management used to identify the enterprise's reportable segment:  The
Partnership's reportable segment consists of investment properties that offer
similar products and services.  Although each of the investment properties is
managed separately, they have been aggregated into one segment as they provide
services with similar types of products and customers.

Segment information for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 is shown
in the tables below.  The "Other" Column includes partnership administration
related items and income and expense not allocated to the reportable segment.

NOTE E - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In March 1998, several putative unit holders of limited partnership units of the
Partnership commenced an action entitled Rosalie Nuanes, et al. v. Insignia
Financial Group, Inc., et al. in the Superior Court of the State of California
for the County of San Mateo.  The plaintiffs named as defendants, among others,
the Partnership, the General Partner and several of their affiliated
partnerships and corporate entities. The complaint purports to assert claims on
behalf of a class of limited partners and derivatively on behalf of a number of
limited partnerships (including the Partnership) which are named as nominal
defendants, challenging the acquisition by Insignia and entities which were, at
the time, affiliates of Insignia ("Insignia Affiliates") of interests in certain
general partner entities, past tender offers by Insignia Affiliates as well as a
recently announced agreement between Insignia and AIMCO. The complaint seeks
monetary damages and equitable relief, including judicial dissolution of the
Partnership. On June 25, 1998, the General Partner filed a motion seeking
dismissal of the action. In lieu of responding to the motion, the plaintiffs
filed an amended complaint. The General Partner filed demurrers to the amended
complaint which were heard during February, 1999. No ruling on such demurrers
has been received. The General Partner does not anticipate that costs associated
with this case, if any, will be material to the Partnership's overall
operations.

In July 1998, a limited partner of the Partnership commenced an action in the
Circuit Court for Jackson County, Missouri entitled Bond Purchase LLC v. Angeles
Opportunity Properties, Ltd., et al.  The complaint claims that the Partnership
and an affiliate of the General Partner breached certain contractual and
fiduciary duties allegedly owed to the claimant and seeks damages and injunctive
relief.  This case was settled on April 9, 1999.  The Partnership is responsible
for a portion of the settlement costs.  The expense will not have a material
effect on the Partnership's overall operations.

The Partnership is unaware of any other pending or outstanding litigation that
is not of a routine nature arising in the ordinary course of business.


ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS

The matters discussed in this Form 10-QSB contain certain forward-looking
statements and involve risks and uncertainties (including changing market
conditions, competitive and regulatory matters, etc.) detailed in the
disclosures contained in this Form 10-QSB and the other filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission made by the Partnership from time to 
time.  The discussion of the Partnership's business and results of operations,
including forward-looking statements pertaining to such matters, does not take
into account the effects of any changes to the Partnership's business and 
results of operation. Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from
those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of
factors, including those identified herein.

The Partnership's investment properties consist of two apartment complexes.  The
following table sets forth the average occupancy for each of the properties for
the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998:


                                                Average Occupancy

Property                                          1999        1998


Lake Meadows Apartments

  Garland, Texas                                  98%          98%


Lakewood Apartments


  Tomball, Texas                                  94%          97%


The General Partner attributes the decrease in occupancy at the Lakewood
Apartments to a recent layoff by one of the largest employers in the area.  In
addition, five new apartment complexes within a one mile radius of the property
have recently opened.

Results of Operations

The Partnership reported net income of approximately $109,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 as compared to net income of approximately $103,000
for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The increase in net income is
attributable to an increase in total revenues which was partially offset by an
increase in total expense.  Total revenues increased due to an increase in
rental income which was attributable to increased rental rates at both of the
Partnership's investment properties, which offset the decrease in occupancy at
Lakewood Apartments.

Total expenses increased primarily due to an increase in general and
administrative expenses primarily attributable to increases in general partner
reimbursements and legal fees.  Included in general and administrative expenses
for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 are reimbursements to the
General Partner allowed under the Partnership Agreement associated with its
management of the Partnership.  In addition, costs associated with the quarterly
and annual communications with investors and regulatory agencies and the annual
audit required by the Partnership Agreement are also included.

As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the General Partner
monitors the rental market environment of each of its investment properties to
assess the feasibility of increasing rents, maintaining or increasing occupancy
levels and protecting the Partnership from increases in expenses. As part of
this plan, the General Partner attempts to protect the Partnership from the
burden of inflation-related increases in expenses by increasing rents and
maintaining a high overall occupancy level.  However, due to changing market
conditions, which can result in the use of rental concessions and rental
reductions to offset softening market conditions, there is no guarantee that the
General Partner will be able to sustain such a plan.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 1999, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $1,083,000 compared to approximately $853,000 for the
corresponding period of 1998. The net increase in cash and cash equivalents was
approximately $23,000 from the year ended December 31, 1998, and is due to
approximately $66,000 of cash provided by operating activities, which was
partially offset by approximately $37,000 and $6,000 of cash used in investing
and financing activities, respectively.  Cash used in investing activities
consisted primarily of property improvements and replacements, which were
partially offset by net withdrawals from restricted escrows maintained by the
mortgage lenders. Cash used in financing activities consisted of payments of
principal made on the mortgages encumbering the Partnership's investment
properties.  The Partnership invests its working capital reserves in money
market accounts.

The sufficiency of existing liquid assets to meet future liquidity and capital
expenditure requirements is directly related to the level of capital
expenditures required at the various properties to adequately maintain the
physical assets and other operating needs of the Partnership and to comply with
Federal, state and local legal and regulatory requirements.  Capital
improvements planned for each of the Partnership's investment properties are
detailed below.

Lake Meadows Apartments

Based on a report received from an independent third party consultant analyzing
necessary exterior improvements and estimates made by the General Partner on
interior improvements, it is estimated that the property requires approximately
$208,000 of capital improvements over the near term.  Capital improvements
budgeted for 1999 include, but are not limited to, appliances, building
equipment and floor replacement, which are expected to cost approximately
$196,000.  During the three months ended March 31, 1999, the Partnership
expended approximately $3,000 for capital improvements at the property,
consisting primarily of floor covering replacement.  These expenditures were
funded from operating cash flow.

Lakewood Apartments

Based on a report received from an independent third party consultant analyzing
necessary exterior improvements and estimates made by the General Partner on
interior improvements, it is estimated that the property requires approximately
$240,000 of capital improvements over the near term.  Capital improvements
budgeted for 1999 include, but are not limited to, floor replacement,
landscaping, roof replacement, painting and interior building improvements,
which are expected to cost approximately $191,000.  During the three months
ended March 31, 1999, the Partnership expended approximately $84,000 for capital
improvements at the property, consisting primarily of land, floor covering
replacement, and other building improvements.  These expenditures were funded
from operating cash flow and the Partnership's replacement reserves.

The additional capital expenditures will be incurred only to the extent of cash
available from operations and from the Partnership's reserves.  To the extent
that such budgeted capital improvements are completed, the Partnership's
distributable cash flow, if any, may be adversely affected at least in the short
term.

The Partnership's current assets are thought to be sufficient for any near term
needs (exclusive of capital improvements) of the Partnership.  The mortgage
indebtedness of approximately $5,409,000, net of discount, is interest only or
is being amortized over 343 months with balloon payments due at the maturity
dates of October and November 2003.  The General Partner will attempt to
refinance such indebtedness and/or sell the properties prior to such maturity
dates.  If the properties cannot be refinanced or sold for a sufficient amount,
the Partnership will risk losing such properties through foreclosure.

There were no distributions declared or paid during either of the three months
ended March 31, 1999 and 1998.  The Partnership's distribution policy
will be reviewed on a quarterly basis.  Future cash distributions will depend on
the levels of net cash generated from operations, the availability of cash
reserves, and the timing of debt maturities, refinancings, and/or property
sales.  There can be no assurance, however, that the Partnership will generate
sufficient funds from operations, after planned capital improvement
expenditures, to permit any further distributions to its partners in 1999 or
subsequent periods.

Potential Tender Offer

On October 1, 1998,  Insignia Financial Group, Inc. merged into AIMCO, a real
estate investment trust, whose Class A Common Shares are listed on the New York
Stock Exchange.  As a result of such merger, AIMCO and AIMCO Properties, L.P., a
Delaware limited partnership and the operating partnership of AIMCO ("AIMCO OP")
acquired indirect control of the General Partner.  AIMCO and its affiliates
currently own 11.06% of the limited partnership interests in the Partnership.
AIMCO is presently considering whether it will engage in an exchange offer for
additional limited partnership interests in the Partnership.  There is a
substantial likelihood that, within a short period of time, AIMCO OP will offer
to acquire limited partnership interests in the Partnership for cash or
preferred units or common units of limited partnership interests in AIMCO OP.
While such an exchange offer is possible, no definite plans exist as to when or
whether to commence such an exchange offer, or as to the terms of any such
exchange offer, and it is possible that none will occur.

A registration statement relating to these securities has been filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission but has not yet become effective. These
securities may not be sold nor may offers to buy be accepted prior to the time
the registration statement becomes effective. This Form 10-QSB shall not
constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall
there be any sale of these securities in any state in which such offer,
solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or
qualification under the securities laws of any such state.

Year 2000 Compliance

General Description of the Year 2000 Issue and the Nature and Effects of the
Year 2000 on Information Technology (IT) and Non-IT Systems

The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four digits to define the applicable year.  The Partnership
is dependent upon the Managing General Partner and its affiliates for management
and administrative services ("Managing Agent").  Any of the computer programs or
hardware that have date-sensitive software or embedded chips may recognize a
date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000.  This could result
in a system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations,
including, among other things, a temporary inability to process transactions,
send invoices, or engage in similar normal business activities.

Over the past two years, the Managing Agent has determined that it will be
required to modify or replace significant portions of its software and certain
hardware so that those systems will properly utilize dates beyond December 31,
1999.  The Managing Agent presently believes that with modifications or
replacements of existing software and certain hardware, the Year 2000 issue can
be mitigated.  However, if such modifications and replacements are not made, or
not completed in time, the Year 2000 issue could have a material impact on the
operations of the Partnership.

The Managing Agent's plan to resolve Year 2000 issues involves four phases:
assessment, remediation, testing, and implementation.  To date, the Managing
Agent has fully completed its assessment of all the information systems that
could be significantly affected by the Year 2000, and has begun the remediation,
testing and implementation phases on both hardware and software systems.
Assessments are continuing in regards to embedded systems.  The status of each
is detailed below.

Status of Progress in Becoming Year 2000 Compliant, Including Timetable for
Completion of Each Remaining Phase

Computer Hardware:

During 1997 and 1998, the Managing Agent identified all of the computer systems
at risk and formulated a plan to repair or replace each of the affected systems.


In August 1998, the mainframe system used by the Managing Agent became fully
functional.  In addition to the mainframe, PC-based network servers, routers and
desktop PCs were analyzed for compliance.  The Managing Agent has begun to
replace each of the non-compliant network connections and desktop PCs and, as of
March 31, 1999, had completed approximately 75% of this effort.

The total cost to the Managing Agent to replace the PC-based network servers,
routers and desktop PCs is expected to be approximately $1.5 million of which
$1.3 million has been incurred to date.  The remaining network connections and
desktop PCs are expected to be upgraded to Year 2000 compliant systems by July
31, 1999.

Computer Software:

The Managing Agent utilizes a combination of off-the-shelf, commercially
available software programs as well as custom-written programs that are designed
to fit specific needs.  Both of these types of programs were studied, and
implementation plans written and executed with the intent of repairing or
replacing any non-compliant software programs.

During 1998, the Managing Agent began converting the existing property
management and rent collection systems to its management properties Year 2000
compliant systems.  The estimated additional costs to convert such systems at
all properties, is $200,000, and the implementation and the testing process is
expected to be completed by July 31, 1999.

The final software area is the office software and server operating systems.
The Managing Agent has upgraded all non-compliant office software systems on
each PC and has upgraded 80% of the server operating systems.  The remaining
server operating systems are planned to be upgraded to be Year 2000 compliant by
July 31, 1999.

Operating Equipment:

The Managing Agent has operating equipment, primarily at the property sites,
which needed to be evaluated for Year 2000 compliance.  In September 1997, the
Managing Agent began taking a census and inventory of embedded systems
(including those devices that use time to control systems and machines at
specific properties, for example elevators, heating, ventilating, and air
conditioning systems, security and alarm systems, etc.).

The Managing Agent has chosen to focus its attention mainly upon security
systems, elevators, heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems, telephone
systems and switches, and sprinkler systems.  While this area is the most
difficult to fully research adequately, management has not yet found any major
non-compliance issues that put the Managing Agent at risk financially or
operationally.  The Managing Agent intends to have a third-party conduct an
audit of these systems and report their findings by July 31, 1999.

Any of the above operating equipment that has been found to be non-compliant to
date has been replaced or repaired.  To date, these have consisted only of
security systems and phone systems.  As of March 31, 1999 the Managing Agent has
evaluated approximately 86% of the operating equipment for the Year 2000
compliance.

The total cost incurred for all properties managed by the Managing Agent as of
March 31, 1999 to replace or repair the operating equipment was approximately
$400,000.  The Managing Agent estimates the cost to replace or repair any
remaining operating equipment is approximately $325,000, which is expected to be
completed by August 30, 1999.

The Managing Agent continues to have "awareness campaigns" throughout the
organization designed to raise awareness and report any possible compliance
issues regarding operating equipment within its enterprise.

Nature and Level of Importance of Third Parties and Their Exposure to the Year
2000

The Managing Agent continues to conduct surveys of its banking and other vendor
relationships to assess risks regarding their Year 2000 readiness.  The Managing
Agent has banking relationships with three major financial institutions, all of
which have indicated their compliance efforts will be complete before May 1999.
The Managing Agent has updated data transmission standards with two of the three
financial institutions.  The Managing Agent's contingency plan in this regard is
to move accounts from any institution that cannot be certified Year 2000
compliant by June 1, 1999.

The Partnership does not rely heavily on any single vendor for goods and
services, and does not have significant suppliers and subcontractors who share
information systems (external agent).  To date the Partnership is not aware of
any external agent with a Year 2000 compliance issue that would materially
impact the Partnership's results of operations, liquidity, or capital resources.
However, the Partnership has no means of ensuring that external agents will be
Year 2000 compliant.

The Managing Agent does not believe that the inability of external agents to
complete their Year 2000 remediation process in a timely manner will have a
material impact on the financial position or results of operations of the
Partnership.  However, the effect of non-compliance by external agents is not
readily determinable.

Costs to Address Year 2000

The total cost of the Year 2000 project to the Managing Agent is estimated at
$3.5 million and is being funded from operating cash flows.  To date, the
Managing Agent has incurred approximately $2.8 million ($0.6 million expensed
and $2.2 million capitalized for new systems and equipment) related to all
phases of the Year 2000 project.  Of the total remaining project costs,
approximately $0.5 million is attributable to the purchase of new software and
operating equipment, which will be capitalized.  The remaining $0.2 million
relates to repair of hardware and software and will be expensed as incurred.
The Partnership's portion of these costs are not material.

Risks Associated with the Year 2000

The Managing Agent believes it has an effective program in place to resolve the
Year 2000 issue in a timely manner.  As noted above, the Managing Agent has not
yet completed all necessary phases of the Year 2000 program.  In the event that
the Managing Agent does not complete any additional phases, certain worst case
scenarios could occur.  The worst case scenarios could include elevators,
security and heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems that read
incorrect dates and operate with incorrect schedules (e.g., elevators will
operate on Monday as if it were Sunday). Although such a change would be
annoying to residents, it is not business critical.

In addition, disruptions in the economy generally resulting from Year 2000
issues could also adversely affect the Partnership.  The Partnership could be
subject to litigation for, among other things, computer system failures,
equipment shutdowns or failure to properly date business records.  The amount of
potential liability and lost revenue cannot be reasonably estimated at this
time.

Contingency Plans Associated with the Year 2000

The Managing Agent has contingency plans for certain critical applications and
is working on such plans for others.  These contingency plans involve, among
other actions, manual workarounds and selecting new relationships for such
activities as banking relationships and elevator operating systems.



                          PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In March 1998, several putative unit holders of limited partnership units of the
Partnership commenced an action entitled Rosalie Nuanes, et al. v. Insignia
Financial Group, Inc., et al. in the Superior Court of the State of California
for the County of San Mateo.  The plaintiffs named as defendants, among others,
the Partnership, the General Partner and several of their affiliated
partnerships and corporate entities. The complaint purports to assert claims on
behalf of a class of limited partners and derivatively on behalf of a number of
limited partnerships (including the Partnership) which are named as nominal
defendants, challenging the acquisition by Insignia and entities which were, at
the time, affiliates of Insignia ("Insignia Affiliates") of interests in certain
general partner entities, past tender offers by Insignia Affiliates as well as a
recently announced agreement between Insignia and AIMCO. The complaint seeks
monetary damages and equitable relief, including judicial dissolution of the
Partnership. On June 25, 1998, the General Partner filed a motion seeking
dismissal of the action. In lieu of responding to the motion, the plaintiffs
filed an amended complaint. The General Partner filed demurrers to the amended
complaint which were heard during February, 1999. No ruling on such demurrers
has been received. The General Partner does not anticipate that costs associated
with this case, if any, will be material to the Partnership's overall
operations.

In July 1998, a limited partner of the Partnership commenced an action in the
Circuit Court for Jackson County, Missouri entitled Bond Purchase LLC v. Angeles
Opportunity Properties, Ltd., et al.  The complaint claims that the Partnership
and an affiliate of the General Partner breached certain contractual and
fiduciary duties allegedly owed to the claimant and seeks damages and injunctive
relief.  This case was settled on April 9, 1999.  The Partnership is responsible
for a portion of the settlement costs.  The expense will not have a material
effect on the Partnership's overall operations.
