                                    PART I

     Item 1.  Business.  America First Participating/Preferred Equity Mortgage
Fund (the "Fund"), a Nebraska general partnership, was formed pursuant to a 
Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated November 20, 1986, to invest principally 
in federally-insured first mortgages on multifamily residential properties, 
including retirement living centers, and in securities collateralized by first 
mortgages on single-family and multifamily residential properties.  The Fund 
also invested in Preferred Equity Participations ("PEPs") in the form of 
limited partnership interests in the limited partnerships which own the 
financed properties and in the form of participating mortgages.  America First 
Participating/Preferred Equity Mortgage Fund Limited Partnership (the 
"Partnership") was formed as a limited partnership on November 20, 1986, under 
the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act to act as managing 
partner of the Fund.  The Fund and the Partnership are referred to 
collectively herein as the "Registrants."  The Registrants' business 
objectives are to provide investors (i) safety and preservation of capital, 
(ii) regular cash distributions and (iii) a potential for an enhanced yield 
from participations in the net cash flow and net capital appreciation from the 
financed properties received under the terms of the PEPs.

     A total of 5,722,527 Units were sold at $20 per Unit and a total of 100 
Certificates were sold at $50,000 per Certificate for total capital 
contributions of $111,178,590 after the payment of certain organization and 
offering costs.

     Through December 31, 1995, the Fund had acquired: (i) ten mortgage-backed 
securities guaranteed as to principal and interest by the Government National 
Mortgage Association (the "GNMA Certificates") collateralized by first 
mortgage loans on multifamily housing properties located in seven states and 
five GNMA Certificates backed by pools of single-family mortgages; (ii) a 
first mortgage loan insured by the Federal Housing Administration (the "FHA 
Loan") on a retirement living center located in California; (iii) limited 
partnership interests ("PEPs") in 11 limited partnerships which own the 
multifamily housing properties financed by the GNMA Certificates and the FHA 
Loan; and, (iv) two participating first mortgage loans (the "Participating 
Loans") on multifamily housing properties financed in part by an affiliated 
mortgage fund.  The FHA Loan and six GNMA Certificates collateralized by 
multifamily properties have been repaid by GNMA or the Department of Housing 
and Urban Development which left the Fund with only the PEPs on these 
properties.  The Fund acquired the entire equity interest in the PEPs holding 
three multifamily properties.  The Fund continues to own all the equity in two 
of these properties and the third property was acquired by GNMA through 
foreclosure.  During 1995, another property in which the Fund held a PEP was 
sold at a foreclosure auction in conjunction with bankruptcy proceedings and 
the Fund withdrew as a limited partner of another property in which the Fund 
held a PEP.  Accordingly, the Fund no longer holds a PEP in either of these 
properties.  Collectively, the four remaining GNMA Certificates, six remaining 
PEPs, two real estate properties and two Participating Loans are referred to 
as the "Permanent Investments."

     The GNMA Certificates and the FHA Loan provide the Registrants with 
monthly payments of principal and interest which are either guaranteed by the 
Government National Mortgage Association or insured by the Federal Housing 
Administration.  The Partnership Interests and the Participating Loan 
(collectively, the "PEPs") are intended to provide the Registrants with a base 
return plus a participation in the net cash flow and net capital appreciation 
of the underlying real estate properties.  Therefore, the return to the 
Registrants depends, in part, on the economic performance of the real estate 
financed by the PEPs.  A description of the Permanent Investments acquired by 
the Fund (and the properties financed thereby) appears in Notes 4, 5, 6 and 7 
to the Notes to Combined Financial Statements filed in response to Item 8 
hereof.  The Partnership has no significant assets other than its general 
partner interest in the Fund.

     The Registrants are engaged solely in the business of providing financing 
for the acquisition and improvement of real estate.  Accordingly, the 
presentation of information about industry segments is not applicable and 
would not be material to an understanding of the Registrants' business taken 
as a whole.

     The Registrants have no employees.  Certain services are provided to the 
Registrants by employees of America First Companies L.L.C. which is the 
general partner of the general partner of the Partnership, and the Fund 


<PAGE>                               -1- 
reimburses America First Companies L.L.C. for such services at cost. The 
Registrants are not charged and do not reimburse for the services performed by 
managers and officers of America First Companies L.L.C.

     Item 2.  Properties.  Neither Registrant directly owns or leases any 
physical properties.  However, the Fund initially acquired PEPs in 11 limited 
partnerships which were formed to own multifamily housing projects.  Under the 
terms of the limited partnership agreements, the Fund has removed the general 
partners of seven of these partnerships.  In three cases, the Fund acquired 
the general partners' interest in the limited partnerships in addition to its 
PEP.  Accordingly, the Fund became the indirect owner of the entire equity 
interest in these properties and began accounting for them as investments in 
real estate.  One of these properties was foreclosed upon by GNMA in 1989 and, 
therefore, the Fund no longer holds an interest in this property.  In the 
remaining four limited partnerships, a substitute limited partner was admitted 
and acquired a portion of the removed general partner's interest.  The Fund 
continued to own PEPs in these properties until 1995 when one of the 
properties was sold in foreclosure and the Fund withdrew as the limited 
partner from another property.  Accordingly the Fund continues to hold PEPs in 
six multifamily properties.  Descriptions of the multifamily properties in 
which the Fund owns indirect equity interests are set forth in Notes 5 and 6 
to the Combined Financial Statements filed in response to Item 8 hereof.

     The only assets of the Partnership consist of its general partner 
interest in the Fund.

     Item 3.  Legal Proceedings.  There are no other material pending legal 
proceedings to which the Registrants or any of their property is subject.

     Item 4.  Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.  No matter 
was submitted during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ending December 31, 
1995 to a vote of the Registrants' security holders.

                                   PART II

     Item 5.  Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder

     Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
Results of Operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Fund originally acquired: (i) ten mortgage-backed securities guaranteed as 
to principal and interest by the Government National Mortgage Association 
(GNMA) collateralized by first mortgage loans on multifamily housing 
properties located in seven states, GNMA Certificates backed by pools of 
single-family mortgages (the GNMA Certificates); (ii) a first mortgage loan 
insured by the Federal Housing Administration (the FHA Loan) on a retirement 
living center located in California; (iii) limited partnership interests 
(PEPs) in eleven limited partnerships which own the multifamily properties 
financed by the GNMA Certificates and the FHA Loan; and (iv) two participating 
first mortgage loans (the Participating Loans) on multifamily housing 
properties financed in part by an affiliated mortgage fund.  The FHA Loan and 
six of the GNMA Certificates secured by multifamily properties have been 
repaid which left the Fund with only the PEPs on these properties.  Under the 
terms of the limited partnership agreements for the PEPs, the Fund has removed 
the general partners of seven of the limited partnerships owning multifamily 
properties.  In three cases, the Fund acquired the general partners' interest 
in the limited partnerships in addition to its PEP.  Accordingly, the Fund 
<PAGE>                                -4- 
became the indirect owner of the entire equity interest in these properties 
and began accounting for them as investments in real estate (the "Real Estate 
Interests").  One of these properties was foreclosed upon by GNMA in 1989 and, 
therefore, the Fund no longer holds an interest in this property.  In the 
remaining four limited partnerships, a substitute limited partner was admitted 
and acquired a portion of the removed general partner's interest.  The Fund 
continued to own PEPs in these properties until 1995 when Casa Sandoval was 
sold in foreclosure and the Fund withdrew as the limited partner from 
Moonraker Apartments.  As a result of the foregoing, the Fund continues to 
hold four GNMA Certificates, six PEPs, two Real Estate Interests and two 
Participating Loans.

The following table shows the occupancy levels of the properties financed by 
the Fund in which the Fund continues to hold an interest at December 31, 1995:

</TABLE>

Regular monthly distributions to investors consist primarily of interest and 
principal received on mortgage-backed securities.  Additional cash for 
distributions is received from PEPs and other investments.  The Fund may draw 
on reserves to pay operating expenses or to supplement cash distributions to 
investors.  The Fund is permitted to replenish its reserves through the sale 
or refinancing of assets.  During 1995, a net amount of $777,828 of 
undistributed mortgage principal payments was placed in reserves.  In 
addition, the Fund withdrew $962,741 from reserves to purchase 110,060 
Exchangeable Units (Units) during 1995.  The total amount held in reserves at 
December 31, 1995, was $34,418,105 of which $32,839,361 was invested in GNMA 
and FNMA Certificates and U.S. government securities.




<PAGE>                                -5-
The Fund believes that cash provided by operating and investing activities 
and, if necessary, withdrawals from the Fund's reserves will be adequate to 
meet its short-term and long-term liquidity requirements, including the 
payments of distributions to investors.  The Fund has no other internal or 
external sources of liquidity.  Under the terms of the Pooling and Servicing 
agreement, the Fund is not authorized to enter into short-term or long-term 
debt financing arrangements or issue additional Units or Certificates to meet 
short-term and long-term liquidity requirements.

Asset Quality

The Fund continues to receive the full amount of monthly principal and 
interest payments on its GNMA and FNMA Certificates.  The GNMA and FNMA 
Certificates are fully guaranteed as to principal and interest by GNMA and 
FNMA, respectively.  The obligations of GNMA are backed by the full faith and 
credit of the United States government.

PEPs and Participating Loans, however, are not insured or guaranteed.  The 
value of these investments is a function of the value of the real estate 
underlying the PEPs or collateralizing the Participating Loans.  It is the 
policy of the management of the Fund to make a periodic review of the real 
estate underlying the PEPs or collateralizing the Participating Loans in order 
to establish, when necessary, valuation reserves on investments in PEPs and 
Participating Loans.  The allowance for losses on investments in PEPs is based 
on the fair value of the properties underlying the PEPs.  A reserve for the 
Participating Loans is established for the difference between the recorded 
investment in the Participating Loans and the fair value of the underlying 
collateral.  

The fair value of the properties underlying the PEPs and the collateral for 
the Participating Loans is based on management's best estimate of the net 
realizable value of such properties; however, the ultimate realized values may 
vary from these estimates.  The net realizable value of the properties is 
determined based on the discounted estimated future cash flows from the 
properties, including estimated sales proceeds.  The calculation of discounted 
estimated future cash flows includes certain variables such as the assumed 
inflation rates for rents and expenses, capitalization rates and discount 
rates.  These variables are supplied to management by an independent real 
estate appraisal firm based upon local market conditions for each property.  
In certain cases, additional factors such as the replacement value of the 
property or comparable sales of similar properties are also taken into 
consideration.  The allowances are periodically reviewed and adjustments are 
made to the allowances when there are significant changes in the estimated net 
realizable value of the properties underlying the PEPs or the underlying 
collateral for the loans.

Based on the foregoing methodology, valuations and reviews performed during 
1995 indicated that the investment in PEPs and Participating Loans recorded on 
the balance sheet at December 31, 1995, required no adjustments to their 
carrying amounts.

The Parklane

The Parklane, a retirement living center located in Salt Lake City, Utah, had 
an average occupancy rate of 96% during 1995, compared to 99% during 1994.  
Cash flow from operations of the property has been sufficient to pay debt 
service on the first mortgage loan collateralized by the property and the Fund 
continues to receive timely payment of principal and interest on its GNMA 
Certificate.  However, the Fund received no equity distributions in 1995 from 
the PEP interest in the limited partnership which owns this property and does 
not expect any distributions in 1996.

Grand Villa

Average occupancy at Grand Villa retirement living center, in Grand Junction, 
Colorado, was 81% during 1995, compared to 96% during 1994.  During 1995, the 
net cash provided from the operations of the property was sufficient to pay 
total debt service on the mortgage loan.  In addition to the GNMA payments, in 
1995, the Fund received approximately $79,000 in equity distributions from its 
PEP interest in the partnership which owns the property.  The Fund anticipates 
the property will continue to generate cash flow in excess of debt service in 
1996.

Cambridge Court

Average occupancy at Cambridge Court retirement living center, in Kearney, 
Nebraska, was 96% during 1995, compared to 98% during 1994.  During 1995, the 
net cash provided from the operations of the property was sufficient to pay 
total debt service on the mortgage loan.  In addition to the GNMA payments, in 
1995, the Fund received approximately $11,000 in equity distributions from its 
PEP interest in the partnership which owns the property.  Cash flow from the 
operations of this property is expected to continue to remain sufficient to 
pay debt service on the mortgage loan during 1996.

Hickory Villa

Average occupancy at Hickory Villa retirement living center, in Omaha, 
Nebraska, was 91% during 1995, compared to 95% during 1994.  Cash flow from 
the operations of the property was sufficient to make principal and interest 
payments on the mortgage loan during 1995.  Cash flow from the operations of 
this property is expected to continue to remain sufficient to pay debt service 
on the mortgage loan during 1996.  However, the Fund received no equity 
distribution from the PEP interest in the limited partnership which owns this 
property in 1995 and does not expect any in 1996.

Harmony Bay Apartments

Harmony Bay Apartments, in Roswell, Georgia, had an average occupancy rate of 
93% during 1995, compared to 94% during 1994.  The GNMA Certificate has been 
repaid in full, but the property partnership in which the Fund holds a PEP 
continues to own the property.  However, the Fund received no equity 
distribution from the PEP interest in the limited partnership which owns this 
property in 1995 and does not expect any in 1996.  The mortgage loan on the 
property went into default in 1990.  However, the property partnership entered 
into a Provisional Workout Agreement (PWA) with HUD effective February 1, 
1995.  Under the terms of the PWA, the property is required to make monthly 
payments which increase over the term of the PWA.  Monthly payments are 
currently $57,189 which are sufficient to pay 72% of current interest.  The 
monthly payments increase annually at February 1 at varying amounts to 
$121,123 beginning February 1, 2003, at which point payments will be 
sufficient to pay 153% of current interest.  Any funds over $85,127 remaining 
in the operating account are to be remitted in addition to the scheduled 
monthly payments.  On February 1, 2004, HUD will recast the mortgage and any 
delinquent interest at 9.5% interest amortized over the remaining term of the 
mortgage, providing the mortgagor has fully complied with the terms of the PWA 
and HUD has determined that it is financially feasible.  Under the terms of 
the PWA, HUD was given the option to declare the entire indebtedness due and 
payable at or after February 1, 2005.  Effective May 8, 1995, HUD assigned the 
Deed of Trust to a private mortgagee.  However, the property will continue to 
operate under the PWA.  The property was in compliance with the terms of the 
PWA as of December 31, 1995 and expects to remain in compliance during 1996.

Timber Cove Apartments

Timber Cove Apartments, in Decatur, Illinois, had an average occupancy rate of 
90% during 1995, compared to 88% during 1994.  Cash flow from operations of 
the property has not been sufficient to make principal and interest payments 
and the mortgage loan on the property has been in default since 1990.  The 
GNMA Certificate has been repaid in full, but the property partnership, in 
which the Fund holds a PEP continues to own the property.  However, the Fund 
received no equity distribution from the PEP interest in the limited 
partnership which owns this property in 1995 and does not expect any in 1996.  
The property partnership is continuing negotiations with HUD concerning a 
potential workout agreement that would help the property reestablish its 
financial stability and preserve the Fund's equity position.

Meadow Brook Apartments

Meadow Brook Apartments, in Amelia, Ohio, had an average occupancy rate of 91% 
during 1995, compared to 87% during 1994.  The GNMA Certificate has been 
repaid in full, but the Fund continues to own the property.  The mortgage loan 
on the property went into default in 1990.  However, the property entered into 
a Provisional Workout Agreement (PWA) with HUD effective March 1, 1995, in 
order to help the property reestablish its financial stability.  Under the 
terms of the PWA, the Partnership is required to make monthly payments which 
increase over the term of the PWA.  Monthly payments beginning March 1, 1995, 
are $24,374 which are sufficient to pay 70% of the current interest, service 
charges and taxes.  The monthly payments increase annually at March 1 at 
varying amounts to $38,497 beginning March 1, 2001, at which point payments 
<PAGE>                                -7- 
will be sufficient to pay 120% of current interest, service charge and taxes.  
Any funds over $30,287 remaining in the operating account are to be remitted 
in addition to the scheduled monthly payments.  On February 28, 2004, HUD will 
recast any delinquent interest, principal and other charges at 9.5% interest 
amortized over the remaining term of the mortgage, providing the mortgagor has 
fully complied with the terms of the PWA and HUD has determined that it is 
financially feasible.  Terms of the PWA also forgave past delinquencies in the 
reserve for replacement and accrued late fees payable of $165,775.  The 
property was in compliance with the terms of the PWA as of December 31, 1995 
and expects to remain in compliance during 1996.

Morrowood Townhouses

Morrowood Townhouses, in Morrow, Georgia, had an average occupancy rate of 96% 
during 1995, compared to 94% during 1994.  The GNMA Certificate has been paid 
in full, but the Fund continues to own the property.  The mortgage loan on the 
property went into default in 1989.  However, the property entered into a 
Provisional Workout Agreement (PWA) with HUD effective July 1, 1994.  Under 
the terms of the PWA, the property is required to make monthly payments which 
increase over the term of the PWA.  Monthly payments are currently $44,118 
which are sufficient to pay 92% of current interest.  The monthly payments 
increase annually at July 1 at varying amounts to $57,430 beginning July 1, 
2002, at which point payments will be sufficient to pay 120% of current 
interest.  Additional payments are to be made monthly to reduce previous 
mortgage delinquencies.  The payments adjust annually on July 1 and range 
from $1,215 to $2,350, monthly.  Any funds over $51,237 remaining in the 
operating account are to be remitted in addition to the scheduled monthly 
payments.  On July 1, 2003, HUD will recast any delinquent interest, principal 
and other charges at 9.5% interest amortized over the remaining term of the 
mortgage, providing the mortgagor has fully complied with the terms of the PWA 
and HUD has determined that it is financially feasible.  Under the terms of 
the PWA, HUD was given the option to declare the entire indebtedness due and 
payable at or after July 1, 2004.  Effective May 12, 1995, HUD assigned the 
Deed of Trust to a private mortgagee.  However, the property will continue to 
operate under the PWA.  The property was in compliance with the terms of the 
PWA as of December 31, 1995 and expects to remain in compliance during 1996.

Avalon Ridge

Avalon Ridge Apartments, in Renton, Washington, had an average occupancy rate 
of 84% during 1995 and 1994.  Interest is recognized as income on the Fund's 
Participating Loan on a cash basis.  Interest earned in 1995 was $41,157, 
compared to $54,904 in 1994 and was approximately $83,000 less than the amount 
needed to pay the base interest in 1995.  An affiliate of the Fund's general 
partner began managing this property in September of 1994.  Since that time, 
the property manager has implemented a plan to improve the tenant profile 
through more stringent tenant qualifications.  In addition, management has 
been working to evict some of the current problem tenants.  This has resulted 
in a higher-than-normal turnover of units.  The increase in tenant turnover 
caused an increase of approximately $175,000 in repairs and maintenance expense 
and property improvements.  The majority of the increase was due to expenses 
incurred to prepare apartment units for new rentals.  In order to attract new 
tenants, the property manager has had to decrease rental rates which resulted 
in a decrease in rental income of $137,000 from 1994 to 1995.  This decrease 
in rental income and the $175,000 increase in repairs and maintenance expenses 
were partially offset by a decrease of $53,000 in other operating expenses, 
primarily property taxes.  Thus, net cash flow generated by the property, 
excluding interest, decreased approximately $259,000 from 1994 to 1995.  
Management believes that its efforts will improve future operating results of 
the property.

Jackson Park Place

Jackson Park Place Apartments, in Fresno, California, had an average occupancy 
rate of 96% during 1995, compared to 95% during 1994.  As a result, net cash 
flow, excluding interest, in 1995 increased by approximately $14,000, compared 
to 1994.  Interest of $210,000 earned on the Fund's Participating Loan in 1995 
and 1994 represents the full amount of base interest due for the respective 
year.  No contingent interest was earned in 1995 or 1994 and none is expected 
in 1996.

The decrease in mortgage and mortgage-backed securities income of $90,578 from 
1994 to 1995 is a result of the continued amortization of the principal 
balances of the GNMA and FNMA Certificates resulting in a decrease in such 
income of approximately $322,600 during 1995.  The decrease during 1995 was 
partially offset by the acquisition of additional GNMA Certificates by the 
Fund during June 1994, which added approximately $232,000 of such income 
during 1995.  The decrease in mortgage and mortgage-backed securities income 
of $546,536 from 1993 to 1994 was a result of a $1,390,000 decrease due to the 
continued amortization of the principal balances of the GNMA and FNMA 
Certificates which was offset by an $843,000 increase in interest attributable 
to the purchase of GNMA and FNMA Certificates during July 1993, December 1993 
and June 1994.

Equity in earnings of property partnerships is a function of the cash flow 
received by the Fund from its PEP interests in the operating partnerships which 
own certain of the properties as well as the Fund's allocable share of earnings
generated by these properties.  Because of an overall decrease in the cash 
<PAGE>                                -9-
flow received by the Fund from these properties, equity in earnings of 
property partnerships decreased by $54,729 from 1994 to 1995, primarily due to 
a decrease in the occupancy of Grand Villa.  Equity in earnings of property 
partnerships decreased by $81,890 from 1993 to 1994 due to a decrease in cash 
flow from the property partnerships.  See discussion of the properties in 
which the Fund holds a PEP in the Asset Quality Section for additional 
information.

The decreases in interest income on participating loans from 1994 to 1995 and 
1993 to 1994 are attributable to the Fund recording income on the Avalon Ridge 
property when it is received.  The rate of interest received, which is lower 
than the base interest rate, fluctuates with the cash flow generated by this 
property.  See discussion of this property in the Asset Quality section for 
additional information.

The increase in interest income on temporary cash investments of $34,124 from 
1994 to 1995 and $89,869 from 1993 to 1994 is attributable to additional cash 
available for investment resulting from the receipt of principal payments on 
GNMA Certificates backed by pools of single family properties.  Principal 
payments have exceeded normal amortization because of increased prepayments of 
the underlying mortgages.

Rental income, net of real estate operating expenses and depreciation, from 
the properties acquired by the Fund in settlement of PEPs increased by 
approximately $120,000 in 1995 and $112,000 in 1994.  The increase from 1994 
to 1995 is due to an increase in rental income resulting from overall higher 
average occupancy and rental rate increases which was partially offset by an 
increase in real estate operating expenses.  The increase in net rental income 
from 1993 to 1994 was due to an increase in rental income resulting from 
higher average occupancy and rental rate increases and a decrease in operating 
expenses, primarily property improvements.  The increases in net rental income 
in 1995 and 1994 were entirely offset by increases in interest paid by the 
Fund on the mortgage loans it has assumed on these properties.  Since interest 
is paid only to the extent of available cash flow from these properties, the 
Fund records additional interest expense as such cash flow increases.

General and administrative expenses increased by $186,822 from 1994 to 1995 
due to increases in: (i) salaries and related expenses of approximately 
$129,000; (ii) administrative fees of approximately $30,000 paid by the Fund 
to the general partner since the PEPs did not generate sufficient cash flow to 
pay the full amount; (iii) legal and accounting fees of approximately $28,000; 
(iv) insurance expense of approximately $10,000; and (v) other expenses of 
approximately $6,000.  These increases were partially offset by a decrease of 
approximately $16,000 in printing and investor servicing expenses. 

General and administrative expenses decreased $137,356 from 1993 to 1994 due 
to decreases in: (i) administrative fees of approximately $58,000 paid to the 
general partner; (ii) salaries and related expenses of approximately $52,000; 
(iii) printing fees of approximately $19,000; (iv) legal and accounting fees 
of approximately $11,000; and (v) other expenses or approximately $6,000.  
These decreases were partially offset by an increase of approximately $9,000 
in insurance expense.

     Item 8.  Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.  The Combined 
Financial Statements and supporting schedules of the Registrants are set forth 
in Item 14 hereof and are incorporated herein by reference.

     Item 9.  Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and 
Financial Disclosure.  There were no disagreements with the Registrants' 
independent accountants on accounting principles and practices or financial 
disclosure during the fiscal years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994. 

                                   PART III

   Item 10.  Directors and Executive Officers of Registrants.  The Registrants

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT

To the Partners
America First Participating/Preferred Equity Mortgage Fund
and
America First Participating/Preferred Equity Mortgage Fund Limited Partnership:

We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of America First 
Participating/Preferred Equity Mortgage Fund and America First 
Participating/Preferred Equity Mortgage Fund Limited Partnership as of 
December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related combined statements of income, 
partners' capital and cash flows for each of the three years in the period 
ended December 31, 1995.  These combined financial statements are the 
responsibility of the Fund's management.  Our responsibility is to express an 
opinion on these combined financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to 
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the combined financial statements 
are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test 
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the combined 
financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting 
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as 
evaluating the overall combined financial statement presentation.  We believe 
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present 
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of America First 
Participating/Preferred Equity Mortgage Fund and America First 
Participating/Preferred Equity Mortgage Fund Limited Partnership as of 
December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of their operations and their cash 
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995, in 
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

1. Organization

America First Participating/Preferred Equity Mortgage Fund (the Fund) was 
formed on November 20, 1986, as a Nebraska general partnership for the purpose 
of acquiring a portfolio of federally-insured multifamily mortgages or other 
investments including preferred equity participations (PEPs).  PEPs consist 
of equity interests which are intended to provide the Fund with a 
participation in the net cash flow and net sale or refinancing proceeds of the 
properties collateralizing the mortgage loans.  America First 
Participating/Preferred Equity Mortgage Fund Limited Partnership (the 
Partnership) was also formed on November 20, 1986, under the Delaware Revised 
Uniform Limited Partnership Act to serve as the managing general partner of 
the Fund.  The Fund and the Partnership will continue in existence until 
December 31, 2036, unless terminated earlier under the provisions of the 
Pooling and Servicing Agreement forming the Fund and the Partnership Agreement 
forming the Partnership.  The General Partner of the Partnership is America 
First Capital Associates Limited Partnership Three (AFCA 3).

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 A)Method of Accounting
   The financial statements include the combined statements of the Fund and 
   the Partnership.  The combined financial statements are prepared on the 
   accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting 
   principles.

   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally 
   accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and 
   assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 
   disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the 
   financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses 
   during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those 
   estimates.

 B)Investments in Mortgage-Backed Securities, U.S. Government Securities and 
    Participating Loans

   On January 1, 1994, the Fund adopted Statement of Financial Accounting    
   Standard No. 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity    
   Securities" (FAS 115).  FAS 115 requires that investment securities be    
   classified as held-to-maturity, available-for-sale, or trading.  Under FAS
   115, investments classified as held-to-maturity are carried at amortized    
   cost.  Investments classified as available-for-sale are reported at 
   fair value with any unrealized gains or losses excluded from earnings 
   and reflected as a separate component of partners' capital.  Subsequent 
   increases and decreases in the net unrealized gain/loss on the 
   available-for-sale securities are reflected as adjustments to the carrying
   value of the portfolio and adjustments to the component of partners' 
   capital.  The Fund does not have investment securities classified as 
   trading.  FAS 115 had no impact to partners' capital or earnings prior to 
   June 30, 1995, since all investment securities were classified as 
   held-to-maturity.  As described in Note 4, on June 30, 1995, the Fund 
   reclassified certain investment securities from the held-to-maturity 
   category to the available-for-sale category.

  	The investment in Participating Loans is recorded at cost and reduced by    
   principal payments received.  Participating Loans are not insured or    
   guaranteed.  The value of these investments is a function of the value of
   the real estate collateralizing the Participating Loans.  Interest income on 
   Participating Loans is excluded from income when, in the opinion of    
   management, collection of such interest is doubtful.  This interest is    
   recognized as income when it is received.

 C)Investment in Preferred Equity Participations (PEPs)

  	The investment in PEPs consist of interests in limited partnerships which 
   own the properties underlying the mortgage-backed securities and are
   accounted for using the equity method.  PEPs are not insured or guaranteed.
   The value of these investments is a function of the value of the real estate
   underlying the PEPs.

D)Allowance for Losses on Investment in PEPs and Participating Loans

 	The allowance for losses on investments in PEPs is a valuation reserve which 
  has been established at a level that management feels is adequate to absorb
  potential losses on investments in PEPs.  The allowance is based on the fair
  value of the properties underlying the PEPs.

  The allowance for losses on Participating Loans is a valuation reserve 
  which has been established at a level that management feels is adequate to 
  absorb potential losses on outstanding loans.  Reserves are established for 
  loans which management considers impaired.  Loans are considered impaired 
  when it is probable that the Fund will be unable to collect amounts due 
  according to the contractual terms of the loan agreements.  Based on this 
  analysis, all loans were considered impaired at December 31, 1995.  A 
  reserve is established for the difference between the recorded investment in 
  the Participating Loans and the fair value of the underlying collateral.
  
  The fair value of the properties underlying the PEPs and the collateral for 
  the Participating Loans is based on management's best estimate of the net 
  realizable value of such properties; however, the ultimate realized values 
  may vary from these estimates.  The net realizable value of the properties is 
  determined based on the discounted estimated future cash flows from the 
  properties, including estimated sales proceeds.  The calculation of discounted
  estimated future cash flows includes certain variables such as the assumed 
  inflation rates for rents and expenses, capitalization rates and discount 
  rates.  These variables are supplied to management by an independent real 
  estate appraisal firm based upon local market conditions for each property.  
  In certain cases, additional factors such as the replacement value of the 
  property or comparable sales of similar properties are also taken into 
  consideration.  The allowances are periodically reviewed and adjustments are 
  made to the allowances when there are significant changes in the estimated 
  net realizable value of the properties underlying the PEPs or the underlying
  collateral for the loans.

E)Investment in Real Estate

 	The investment in real estate is recorded at the lower of cost or estimated 
	 net realizable value at the date of acquisition.

F)Depreciation

 	Depreciation of real estate acquired in settlement of PEPs is based on the 
	 estimated useful life of the properties (ranging from 6 to 27 1/2 years) 
	 using the straight-line method.

G)Income Taxes
 
 	No provision has been made for income taxes since each Exchangeable Unit 
	 Holder or Passthrough Certificate Holder is required to report their share 
	 of the Partnership's or Fund's income for federal and state income tax 
	 purposes.  The reported amounts of the Fund's assets and liabilities 
  exceeded the tax basis by $5,956,079 and $10,394,969 at December 31, 1995,
  and December 31, 1994, respectively.

H)Temporary Cash Investments

 	Temporary cash investments are invested in short-term debt securities 
	 purchased with original maturities of three months or less.

I)Investment Evaluation Fees

 	The investment evaluation fees were incurred in connection with the 
	 acquisition of assets.  These fees are being amortized over the life of the 
	 Fund.

J)Net Income Per Exchangeable Unit and Passthrough Certificate

	 Net income per Exchangeable Unit and Passthrough Certificate is allocated 
	 based on the weighted average number of exchangeable units and passthrough 
	 certificates outstanding during each year presented.

K)New Accounting Pronouncement

  The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of Financial   
  Accounting Standard No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived   
  Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of".  Among other things, 
  this Statement requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable 
  intangibles to be held and used by an entity be reviewed for impairment 
  whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an 
  asset may not be recoverable.  The Partnership plans to adopt this Statement 
  in 1996 and anticipates that the adoption of this Statement will not have a 
  material impact on the combined financial statements.

3. Partnership Income, Expenses and Cash Distributions

The Partnership Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement contain 
provisions for distributing the cash available for distribution and for the 
allocation of income and expenses for tax purposes among AFCA 3 and investors.

Income and expenses are allocated to each investor on a monthly basis based on 
the number of exchangeable units or passthrough certificates held by each 
investor as of the last day of the month for which such allocation is to be 
made.

Net income from operations will generally be allocated between investors and 
AFCA 3 in accordance with cash distributions from regular monthly payments on 
investments.  Net income arising from sale or refinancing proceeds will 
generally be allocated first to AFCA 3 in an amount equal to the sale or 
refinancing proceeds distributed to AFCA 3 and the balance will be allocated 
to the investors.  Net income arising from both operations and sale or 
refinancing proceeds, however, may be specially allocated to AFCA 3 to the 
extent that prior allocations of net income from sale or refinancing proceeds 
are insufficient to match distributions arising from sale or refinancing 
proceeds.  Net losses, for tax purposes, will be allocated 99% to investors 
and 1% to AFCA 3.

Cash distributions representing return of capital (other than sale or 
refinancing proceeds) are allocated 100% to investors.  Cash distributions 
representing income (other than sale or refinancing proceeds) from investments 
during each distribution period are allocated in the following order of 
priority:  (i) 99% to investors and 1% to AFCA 3 until investors receive from 
all sources a cumulative noncompounded return of 9% per annum on their 
adjusted capital contributions; (ii) 90% to investors and 10% to AFCA 3 until 
investors receive from all sources a cumulative noncompounded return of 11% 
per annum on their adjusted capital contributions; and thereafter, (iii) 95% 
to investors and 5% to AFCA 3.

Cash distributions representing sale or refinancing proceeds are allocated in 
the following order of priority:  (i) 100% to investors until investors 
receive aggregate cash distributions from all sources equal to a full return 
of investment; (ii) 99% to investors and 1% to AFCA 3 until investors have 
received from all sources a full return of investment plus a cumulative 
noncompounded return of 9% per annum on their adjusted capital contributions; 
(iii) 90% to investors and 10% to AFCA 3  until investors have received from 
all sources a full return of investment plus a cumulative noncompounded return 
of 11% per annum on their adjusted capital contributions; and thereafter, (iv) 
95% to investors and 5% to AFCA 3.

Cash distributions are presently made on a monthly basis but may be made 
quarterly if AFCA 3 so elects.  The cash distributions included in the 
combined financial statements represent the actual cash distributions made 
during each year and the cash distributions accrued at the end of each year.

4. Investment in Mortgage-Backed Securities

The mortgage-backed securities held by the Partnership represent Government 
National Mortgage Association (GNMA) Certificates and Federal National 
Mortgage Association (FNMA) Certificates.  The GNMA Certificates are backed by 
first mortgage loans on multifamily residential properties and pools of single-

(1)The Fund no longer holds a PEP investment in Casa Sandoval or the Villages 
    at Moonraker.  During 1995, Casa Sandoval was sold at a foreclosure 
    auction and the Fund withdrew as a limited partner of the operating 
    partnership which owns the Villages at Moonraker.  Therefore, the 
    valuation allowance previously established for the full amount of these 
    PEP investments was written off.

7.	Investment in Participating Loans

The Participating Loans are collateralized by first mortgages on properties 
jointly financed with America First Tax Exempt Mortgage Fund 2 Limited 
Partnership, whose general partner is an affiliate of AFCA 3.  The 
Participating Loan agreements call for payment of base interest and additional 
interest out of a portion of the net cash flow or net sale or refinancing 
proceeds of the properties.

Descriptions of the Participating Loans held as of December 31, 1995, are as

</TABLE>

The reserve account was established to maintain working capital for the Fund 
and is available to supplement distributions to investors and for any 
contingencies related to the ownership of the investments and the operation of 
the Fund.  The U.S. government securities mature in 1996, the GNMA 
Certificates mature between 2008 and 2023 and the FNMA Certificates mature in 
2000.

During the quarter ended June 30, 1995, the Partnership reassessed the 
appropriateness of the classification of securities held in the reserve 
account.  The Partnership concluded, given the nature of the reserve account, 
it would be more appropriate to classify securities held in the reserve 
account as available-for-sale rather than as held-to-maturity.  Accordingly, 
on June 30, 1995, the Partnership transferred all securities held in the 
reserve account from the held-to-maturity classification to the 
available-for-sale classification.  The total amortized cost, gross unrealized 
holding gains, gross unrealized holding losses and the aggregate fair value of 
the securities transferred were $33,950,530, $617,701, $241,388 and 
$34,326,843, respectively.

At December 31, 1995, the total amortized cost, gross unrealized holding 
gains, gross unrealized holding losses and the aggregate fair value of 
available-for-sale securities were $32,030,783, $851,198, $42,620 and 
$32,839,361 respectively.

On September 12, 1990, June 7, 1995 and July 25, 1995, management announced 
its intent to utilize a portion of the reserve account to acquire a maximum of 
200,000 Exchangeable Units (Units) in the over-the-counter market.  As of 
December 31, 1995, 160,260 Units (110,060 during 1995) had been acquired at a 
total cost of $1,529,382 ($962,741 during 1995).

AFCA 3 is entitled to an administrative fee of .35% per annum of the 
outstanding amount of investments of the Fund to be paid by the Fund to the 
extent such amount is not paid by property owners.  AFCA 3 earned 
administrative fees of $248,129 in 1995, $255,687 in 1994 and $262,361 in 
1993.  Of such amounts, $215,033, $184,373 and $241,721 were paid by the Fund 
during 1995, 1994, and 1993, respectively, and the remainder was paid by 
property owners.  

An affiliate of AFCA 3 provided property management services for Morrowood 
Townhouses beginning in November 1992, Avalon Ridge beginning in September 
1994, and Harmony Bay Apartments beginning in June 1995.  The fees for 
services provided represent the lower of: (i) costs incurred in providing 
management of the property; or, (ii) customary fees for such services 
determined on a competitive basis.  Total fees amounted to $155,167 in 1995, 
$56,486 in 1994 and $54,524 in 1993.

</TABLE>

These notes are payable to an unaffiliated party and are collateralized solely 
by the foregoing properties. The notes are in default; however, the Fund 
effectively has no risk with respect to the mortgage notes payable since the 
Fund's net equity in the properties has previously been reduced to zero.  
Therefore, for accounting purposes, the Fund records interest expense on these 
notes only when it is paid.

11.  Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Fund in estimating the 
fair value of its financial instruments:

  Cash and temporary cash investments:  Fair value approximates the carrying   
  value of such assets.

  Investment in U.S. government securities and mortgage-backed securities:  
  Fair values are based on amounts obtained from an independent pricing source.

  Investment in participating loans:  Fair value is based on management's best 
  estimate of the net realizable value of the underlying collateral of the 
  loans.  See Footnote 2D.

  Mortgage notes payable:  Fair values are not readily determinable as certain 
  terms of the mortgage loans have recently been revised under provisional 
  workout agreements.
