the time period since the end of the last fiscal year, investors are encouraged
to review the financial statements and the management's discussion and analysis
contained in the annual report for 1995 for a more complete understanding of
the Partnership's financial position.

Operations
- ----------

Summary of Net Income
- ---------------------

The operations of the Partnership are primarily comprised of the Partnership's
participation in the operations of the Post Lake and Redwood Shores apartment
complexes. Primarily as a result of decreased interest expense at Redwood
Shores due to the 1995 bond re-marketing, the Partnership generated a smaller
net loss during the six months and quarter ended June 30, 1996 as compared to
the same periods in 1995. Further discussion of the Partnership's operations is
summarized below.

1996 Compared to 1995
- ---------------------

Discussions of fluctuations between 1996 and 1995 refer to both the six months
and quarters ended June 30, 1996 and 1995.

The net income from Post Lake Apartments increased during 1996 as compared to
1995 primarily as a result of higher rental income due to higher rental rates.
The improvement in operations resulted in increased affiliate's participation
in income from joint venture during 1996 as compared to 1995.

Redwood Shores Apartments generated net income during 1996 as compared to a net
loss during 1995 primarily as a result of lower interest expense on the
mortgage note payable as a result of the October 1995 re-marketing of the bonds
secured by the property. In addition, rental income increased during 1996 as
compared to 1995 due to higher rental rates. These improvements were offset by
higher property operating expenses during 1996 as compared to 1995 due to
exterior painting and repairs made to the wood siding of the buildings and
decreased interest income on short-term investments during 1996 as compared to
1995 due to lower interest rates earned on the bond reserve investments.

On the attached Redwood Partners financial statements, income from Redwood
Shores Apartments Associates, Ltd. for 1996 has been allocated entirely to
Redwood Partners, due to a disproportionate allocation of losses generated in
prior years. The seller's participation in losses from prior years had been
limited to the extent the seller contributed capital to the joint venture. 

As a result of higher outstanding loan balances during 1996, interest expense
on the Partnership's short-term loan with an affiliate increased during 1996 as
compared to 1995.

Primarily as a result of lower accounting fees, administrative expenses
decreased during 1996 as compared to 1995. 

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

The cash position of the Partnership decreased by approximately $43,000 as of
June 30, 1996 as compared to December 31, 1995. The cash flow deficit from
operating activities consisted of the payment of administrative expenses of
approximately $92,000 and the payment of interest expense of $100,000 on the
short-term loan with an affiliate. The investing activity consisted of a
$200,000 distribution from the Atlanta Lakes Joint Venture. The financing
activity consisted of a distribution to the affiliated partner of the Atlanta
Lakes Joint Venture of approximately $52,000.

The Partnership defines cash flow generated from the properties as an amount
equal to the property's revenue receipts less property related expenditures,
which include debt service payments. During the six months ended June 30, 1996
and 1995, both Post Lake Apartments and Redwood Shores Apartments generated
positive cash flow.  

While the cash flow of the properties in which the Partnership holds joint
venture interests has improved, the General Partner continues to pursue a
number of actions aimed at improving the cash flow of these properties
including improving property operating performance, and seeking rent increases
where market conditions allow. As of June 30, 1996 the Redwood Shores
Apartments had an occupancy rate of 98% and the Post Lake Apartments had an
occupancy rate of 93%.

The Partnership owes $1,118,145 to the General Partner at June 30, 1996.  This
loan is expected to be repaid from available cash flow from future property
operations and from proceeds received from the disposition of the Partnership's
real estate investments prior to any distributions to Limited Partners. There
can be no assurance that investors will recover all of the their original
investment.
<PAGE>
The General Partner believes that the market for multifamily housing properties
is favorable to sellers of these properties. Currently, Redwood Shores
Apartments Associates, Ltd. has entered into a contract to sell Redwood Shores
Apartments for a sales price of $37,000,000. The Partnership's share of the net
proceeds from the sale is expected to be approximately $3,100,000.  The other
joint venture is actively marketing Post Lake Apartments for sale. If current
market conditions remain favorable and the General Partner can obtain
appropriate sales prices, the Partnership's liquidation strategy will be
accelerated. 

Inflation has several types of potentially conflicting impacts on real estate
investments. Short-term inflation can increase real estate operating costs
which may or may not be recovered through increased rents and/or sales prices,
depending on general or local economic conditions. In the long-term, inflation
can be expected to increase operating costs and replacement costs and may lead
to increased rental revenues and real estate values.
