                   JMB MORTGAGE PARTNERS, LTD. - IV
                        (A LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)

                     NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                        JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995

                              (UNAUDITED)

GENERAL

     Readers of this quarterly report should refer to the Partnership's
audited financial statements for the fiscal 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. 

     The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP
requires the Partnership to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported or disclosed amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period.  Actual results may differ from such
estimates.

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 was adopted by the
Partnership on January 1, 1996.


TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

     The Partnership, pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, is permitted
to engage in various transactions involving the Corporate General Partner
and its affiliates including the reimbursement for salaries and salary-
related expenses of its employees, certain of its officers, and other
direct expenses relating to the administration of the Partnership and the
operation of the Partnership's investments.  Fees, commissions and other
expenses required to be paid by the Partnership to the General Partners and
their affiliates as of June 30, 1996 and for the three months ended June
30, 1996 and 1995 were as follows:

                                                           Unpaid at

                                  =======      ======        ======   

     The General Partners have deferred payment of approximately $442,000
of their distributions of prior net cash flow from the Partnership at June
30, 1996 in accordance with the subordination requirements of the
Partnership Agreement.  All amounts deferred or currently payable do not
bear interest.

RIVERPOINT CENTER

     The Silo Electronic store (12,100 sq. ft.) at Riverpoint Center
vacated its space in the third quarter 1995 and subsequently filed for
bankruptcy.  The borrower is pursuing its legal remedies regarding the
remaining amounts due.  The borrowers leased the space to the Old Navy
Clothing Co., for five years with rent commencing July 1996.  The borrower
had notified the lender that it was experiencing financial difficulties and
had approached the Lenders regarding a loan modification.  During July
1996, the Lenders and borrowers reached an agreement in principle to defer
payment of a portion of the scheduled debt service payments from September
15, 1995 to July 15, 1996.  In conjunction with the modification agreement
in principle, the scheduled maturity date of the loan would be accelerated
to December 31, 1997.  Finally, the lenders have agreed to accept at
certain dates through June 30, 1997 repayment of the loan at specified
amounts (all at premiums to the current principal balance).  However, there
can be no assurance that such agreement will be finalized under these terms
or any others.  As of the date of this report, certain escrow and real
estate tax payments are delinquent; however, the borrower is current in its
full monthly debt service payments.  The Partnership is recognizing
interest income only as collected.

     Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the borrower notified the
Lenders that a tenant which operates a dry cleaning plant at the site has
leaked a chemical associated with the dry cleaning process that can cause
environmental problems if not handled properly.  The borrower is currently
performing tests to assess the extent of the contamination.  At this time
it is not possible to reasonably estimate what the cost of any required
remidiation.  The Lenders do not currently expect that the value of the
borrower's property has been materially impaired; however, there can be no
assurance that the contamination will not have a material impact on the
value of the Lender's security until more information becomes available.


FRANKLIN FARM VILLAGE CENTER

     A tenant, which has a ground lease with the borrower, informed the
borrower and the appropriate state agencies that gasoline was discharged
into the ground.  The Lenders were then informed by the borrower.  The
Lenders have been informed that the tenant, which operates a gasoline
station at the site, is cooperating fully with all government agencies in
order to rectify this problem in a expeditious manner and that no nearby
underground water supplies were affected nor does it appear likely that any
will be affected in the future.  The tenant (an affiliate of a national
gasoline marketer) appears to have the financial resources to fully pay for
the clean up at the property.  At this time it is indeterminable what the
cost of the clean up will be.  The Lenders do not currently expect that the
value of the borrower's property has been materially affected.  However,
there can be no assurances that the gasoline leak, as reported, will not
have a material impact on the value of the Lenders' security in the future.

During July 1996, the Lenders executed an agreement with the borrower
regarding an early repayment of the mortgage loan.  Such agreement allows
the borrower to repay the loan at a predetermined amount (at a premium to
the Lender's current principal balances) prior to October 8, 1996.  There
can be no assurance that such loan will be prepaid.  As of the date of the
report, no amounts currently due from the borrower of this loan are in
arrears.

CALIBRE POINT APARTMENTS

     Calibre Pointe Associates entered into a purchase agreement in April
1996 with an independent third party to sell the property.  The sale price
of the apartments was $14,450,000, paid in cash at closing on May 30, 1996.

Calibre Pointe Associates will recognize a gain of approximately $2,578,000
for financial reporting purposes in 1996, of which approximately $973,000
will be allocable to the Partnership.  Calibre Pointe Associates expects to
recognize a gain of approximately $2,200,000 for Federal income tax
purposes in 1996 of which approximately $830,000 will be allocable to the
Partnership.

     The property was classified as held for sale or disposition as of
January 1, 1996 and therefore has not been subject to continued
depreciation.  The accompanying financial statements include approximately
$228,000 and $188,000 of operations of such property for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 (reflected as a component of the Partnership's
share of operations (loss) of unconsolidated ventures).  The property had a
net carrying value of approximately $11,580,000 at June 30, 1996.


     NORTH RIVERS MARKET SHOPPING CENTER

     Occupancy of North Rivers Market Shopping Center in North Charleston,
South Carolina was 83% at June 30, 1996.  Phar Mor, a major tenant at the
center filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the bankruptcy code.  The
Phar Mor store at the center has continued to operate since its bankruptcy
filing and has been current on all rent payments due subsequent to filing. 
The manager is aggressively attempting to lease the vacant space in the
center.  However, the competitiveness of the market given the Naval
facility closings in the nearby area is expected to make it difficult to
lease space in the center, thereby extending the period of time it will
take to complete the lease-up of the center and resulting in a decrease in
cash flow from operations over the near term.


SELECTED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

     Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, the following is a summary of historical income statement

ADJUSTMENTS

     In the opinion of the Corporate General Partner, all adjustments
(consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair
presentation have been made to the accompanying figures as of June 30, 1996
and for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995.




PART I.  FINANCIAL INFORMATION

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

     Reference is made to the notes to the accompanying financial
statements for additional information concerning the Partnership's
investments.

     During the second quarter some of the Limited Partners in the
Partnership received from an unaffiliated third party an unsolicited tender
offer to purchase up to 2,020 Interests in the Partnership at $425 per
Interest.  The Partnership recommended against acceptance of this offer on
the basis that, among other things, the offer price was inadequate.  In
June such offer expired with approximately 398 Interests being purchased by
such unaffiliated third party pursuant to such offer.  In addition, the
Partnership has, from time to time, received inquires from other third
parties that may consider making offers for Interests, including requests
for the list of Limited Partners in the Partnership.  These inquiries are
generally preliminary in nature.  There is no assurance that any other
third party will commence an offer for Interests, the terms of any such
offer or whether any such offer, if made, will be consummated, amended or
withdrawn.  The board of directors of JMB Realty Corporation ("JMB") the
corporate general partner of the Partnership, has established a special
committee (the "Special Committee") consisting of certain directors of JMB
to deal with all matters relating to tender offers for Interests in the
Partnership, including any and all responses to such tender offers.  The
Special Committee has retained independent counsel to advise it in
connection with any potential tender offers for Interests and has retained
Lehman Brothers Inc. as financial advisor to assist the Special Committee
in evaluating and responding to any additional potential tender offers for
Interests.  Expenses incurred in connection with the previous tender
offer(s) and additional potential tender offers for Interests are expected
to increase Partnership operating expenses in the third quarter.

     After reviewing the properties and competitive market places in the
portfolio, the General Partners of the Partnership expect to be able to
liquidate the remaining assets as quickly as practicable.  Therefore, the
affairs of the Partnership are expected to be wound up no later than 1999,
barring unforeseen economic developments including the inability to sell
the Franklin Farm Village Center note prior to its maturity in 2001.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The increase in cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 1996 as compared
to December 31, 1995 is due primarily to the temporary investment of
approximately $5,351,000 representing the Partnership's share of the sales
proceeds received from Calibre Pointe Apartments in May 1996.

     Deferred interest receivable increased at June 30, 1996 as compared to
December 31, 1995 as a result of the continuing deferral of additional
interest earned under the terms of the mortgage loan receivable by the
Franklin Farm Village Center.

     Investment in unconsolidated ventures, at equity decreased at June 30,
1996 as compared to December 31, 1995 due to the May 30, 1996 sale of the
Partnership's interest in Calibre Pointe Apartments.

     Interest income increased for the six months ended June 30, 1996 as
compared to the same period in 1995 due primarily to additional interest
paid in 1996 on the Franklin Farm Village Center note, relating to 1995
operations not previously accrued, (as interest income is recognized as
collected), and due to a higher interest payment rate in effect for
Riverpoint in 1996.

     The increases in general and administrative expenses for the three and
six months ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the three and six months
ended June 30, 1995 are attributable primarily to the timing of the
recognition of costs for certain outsourcing services, the recognition of
certain prior year reimbursable costs to affiliates of the General Partners
and the timing of the recognition of certain printing costs in 1996.

     The increase in Partnership's share of operations of unconsolidated
ventures for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 as compared to
the same period in 1995 is primarily due to an increase in effective rents
and occupancy at the Calibre Point Apartments.

     The Partnership's share of gain on sale of investment property from
unconsolidated venture of $973,219 in 1996 is due to the gain incurred on
the sale of the Calibre Pointe Apartments.

                            ACKNOWLEDGMENT


     This Acknowledgment is made and executed as of the 31st day of
December, 1995 by AGPP Associates, L. P., a limited partnership organized
under the laws of the State of Illinois ("AGPP"), and JMB Realty
Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("JMBRC").

     WHEREAS, AGPP has acquired all of the partnership interests in
Mortgage Associates-IV, L.P., an Illinois limited partnership, which has
served as the Associate General Partner of JMB Mortgage Partners, Ltd.-IV,
an Illinois limited partnership (the "Partnership"), and AGPP has elected
to continue the business of the Partnership and has agreed to continue as
the Associate General Partner of the Partnership; and

     WHEREAS, JMBRC has agreed to continue as the Corporate General
Partner of the Partnership.

     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree and acknowledge as follows:
     1.    AGPP and JMBRC both shall continue as general partners of the
Partnership, each with all of the rights and powers of general partners
therein, as set forth in the agreement of limited partnership of the
Partnership, as amended to date (the "Partnership Agreement") and in the
Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act of the State of Illinois, and the
Partnership and its business shall be continued in all respects.

     2.    AGPP hereby agrees that it is a signatory to the Partnership
Agreement, together with JMBRC, and adopts and agrees to be bound by all of
the provisions of the Partnership Agreement, as amended from time to time
in accordance with the provisions of the Partnership Agreement.

     3.    AGPP and JMBRC agree that JMBRC is hereby authorized and
empowered, on behalf of AGPP, JMBRC, the Partnership or any of the
foregoing, to execute any and all documents, enter into any and all
agreements, or take any and all other actions (in each case in accordance
with  and subject to the terms of the Partnership Agreement), in the name
of the Partnership or otherwise, as shall be necessary or appropriate in
connection with the business of the Partnership at any time.  It is further
understood and agreed that the Chairman, President or any Vice President of
JMBRC (including any partner of AGPP who is Chairman, President or Vice
President of JMBRC) may act for and in the name of JMBRC in the exercise by
JMBRC of any of its rights and powers hereunder.  In dealing with JMBRC (or
the Chairman, President or any Vice President thereof) so acting on behalf
of AGPP, JMBRC or the Partnership, no person shall be required to inquire
into the authority of JMBRC or such individual to bind the Partnership. 
Persons dealing with the Partnership are entitled to rely conclusively upon
the power and authority of JMBRC (and of the Chairman, President or any
Vice President of JMBRC) as set forth herein.

     4.    AGPP and JMBRC agree to take any and all other actions as shall
be necessary or appropriate to reflect the continuation of the
Partnership's business, including the filing with any agency of any
document which shall be necessary or appropriate in connection therewith.

     5.    Nothing contained herein or contemplated hereby shall be deemed
to render AGPP or JMBRC liable for any obligations for which they would
otherwise not be liable as general partners of the Partnership.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this
Acknowledgment as of the date first above written.
