NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2000
(Unaudited)
(1) The condensed statements included herein have been prepared
by the Partnership, without audit, pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and
reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary to a fair statement of the results of
operations for the interim period, on a basis consistent with
the annual audited statements. The adjustments made to these
condensed statements consist only of normal recurring
adjustments. Certain information, accounting policies, and
footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant
to such rules and regulations, although the Partnership
believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading. It is suggested that
these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction
with the financial statements and the summary of significant
accounting policies and notes thereto included in the
Partnership's latest annual report on Form 10-KSB.
(2) Organization -
AEI Real Estate Fund XV Limited Partnership (Partnership)
was formed to acquire and lease commercial properties to
operating tenants. The Partnership's operations are managed
by AEI Fund Management 86-A, Inc. (AFM), the Managing
General Partner. Robert P. Johnson, the President and sole
shareholder of AFM, serves as the Individual General Partner
and an affiliate of AFM, AEI Fund Management, Inc. (AEI),
performs the administrative and operating functions for the
Partnership.
The terms of the Partnership offering call for a
subscription price of $1,000 per Limited Partnership Unit,
payable on acceptance of the offer. The Partnership
commenced operations on October 3, 1986 when minimum
subscriptions of 1,300 Limited Partnership Units
($1,300,000) were accepted. On December 30, 1986, the
offering terminated when the maximum subscription limit of
7,500 Limited Partnership Units ($7,500,000) was reached.
Under the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement, the
Limited Partners and General Partners contributed funds of
$7,500,000 and $1,000, respectively. During operations, any
Net Cash Flow, as defined, which the General Partners
determine to distribute will be distributed 90% to the
Limited Partners and 10% to the General Partners; provided,
however, that such distributions to the General Partners
will be subordinated to the Limited Partners first receiving
an annual, noncumulative distribution of Net Cash Flow equal
to 10% of their Adjusted Capital Contribution, as defined,
and, provided further, that in no event will the General
Partners receive less than 1% of such Net Cash Flow per
annum. Distributions to Limited Partners will be made pro
rata by Units.
AEI REAL ESTATE FUND XV LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Continued)
(2)Organization - (Continued)
Any Net Proceeds of Sale, as defined, from the sale or
financing of properties which the General Partners determine
to distribute will, after provisions for debts and reserves,
be paid in the following manner: (i) first, 99% to the
Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners until the
Limited Partners receive an amount equal to: (a) their
Adjusted Capital Contribution plus (b) an amount equal to 6%
of their Adjusted Capital Contribution per annum, cumulative
but not compounded, to the extent not previously distributed
from Net Cash Flow; (ii) next, 99% to the Limited Partners
and 1% to the General Partners until the Limited Partners
receive an amount equal to 14% of their Adjusted Capital
Contribution per annum, cumulative but not compounded, to
the extent not previously distributed; (iii) next, to the
General Partners until cumulative distributions to the
General Partners under Items (ii) and (iii) equal 15% of
cumulative distributions to all Partners under Items (ii)
and (iii). Any remaining balance will be distributed 85% to
the Limited Partners and 15% to the General Partners.
Distributions to the Limited Partners will be made pro rata
by Units.
For tax purposes, profits from operations, other than
profits attributable to the sale, exchange, financing,
refinancing or other disposition of property, will be
allocated first in the same ratio in which, and to the
extent, Net Cash Flow is distributed to the Partners for
such year. Any additional profits will be allocated 90% to
the Limited Partners and 10% to the General Partners. In
the event no Net Cash Flow is distributed to the Limited
Partners, 90% of each item of income, gain or credit for
each respective year shall be allocated to the Limited
Partners, and 10% of each such item shall be allocated to
the General Partners. Net losses from operations will be
allocated 98% to the Limited Partners and 2% to the General
Partners.
For tax purposes, profits arising from the sale, financing,
or other disposition of property will be allocated in
accordance with the Partnership Agreement as follows: (i)
first, to those Partners with deficit balances in their
capital accounts in an amount equal to the sum of such
deficit balances; (ii) second, 99% to the Limited Partners
and 1% to the General Partners until the aggregate balance
in the Limited Partners' capital accounts equals the sum of
the Limited Partners' Adjusted Capital Contributions plus an
amount equal to 14% of their Adjusted Capital Contributions
per annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not
previously allocated; (iii) third, to the General Partners
until cumulative allocations to the General Partners equal
15% of cumulative allocations. Any remaining balance will
be allocated 85% to the Limited Partners and 15% to the
General Partners. Losses will be allocated 98% to the
Limited Partners and 2% to the General Partners.
The General Partners are not required to currently fund a
deficit capital balance. Upon liquidation of the Partnership
or withdrawal by a General Partner, the General Partners
will contribute to the Partnership an amount equal to the
lesser of the deficit balances in their capital accounts or
1% of total Limited Partners' and General Partners' capital
contributions.

(3) Investments in Real Estate -
The Partnership owned a 44.9042% interest in a restaurant in
Waco, Texas. In December, 1997, the restaurant was closed
and listed for sale or lease. While the property was
vacant, the Partnership was responsible for the real estate
taxes and other costs required to maintain the property.
As of December 31, 1997, based on an analysis of market
conditions in the area, it was determined the fair value of
the Partnership's interest in the Waco property was
approximately $314,400. In the fourth quarter of 1997, a
charge to operations for real estate impairment of $80,300
was recognized, which is the difference between the book
value at December 31, 1997 of $394,700 and the estimated
fair value of $314,400. The charge was recorded against the
cost of the land and building. In December, 1998, the
Partnership re-analyzed the market conditions in the area
and determined the fair value of the Partnership's interest
declined to approximately $126,000. In the fourth quarter
of 1998, a charge to operations for real estate impairment
of $180,000 was recognized, which is the difference between
the book value at December 31, 1998 of $306,000 and the
estimated fair value of $126,000. The charge was recorded
against the cost of the land and building.
In March, 1999, the Partnership entered into an agreement to
sell the Waco property to an unrelated third party. On May
10, 1999, the sale closed with the Partnership receiving net
sale proceeds of $128,879 which resulted in a net gain of
$4,228. At the time of sale, the cost and related
accumulated depreciation was $287,710 and $163,059,
respectively.
In February, 1999, the Partnership entered into an agreement
to sell the Fuddruckers property to an unrelated third
party. On June 16, 1999, the sale closed with the
Partnership receiving net sale proceeds of $1,145,424 which
resulted in a net gain of $270,045. At the time of sale,
the cost and related accumulated depreciation was $1,138,296
and $262,917, respectively.
On July 14, 1999, the Partnership purchased a Children's
World daycare center in West Chester, Ohio for $999,163.
The property is leased to ARAMARK Educational Resources,
Inc. under a Lease Agreement with a primary term of 15 years
and annual rental payments of $93,162.
During the third and fourth quarter of 1999, the Partnership
sold its interest in the Timber Lodge Steakhouse in three
separate transactions to unrelated third parties. The
Partnership received total net sale proceeds of $566,111
which resulted in a total net gain of $81,898. The total
cost and related accumulated depreciation of the property
was $510,635 and $26,421, respectively. The majority of the
net sale proceeds will be reinvested in additional property
in the future.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Continued)
(3) Investments in Real Estate - (Continued)
The Partnership has incurred net costs of $9,072 related to
the review of potential property acquisitions which have
been capitalized and will be allocated to properties
acquired in future periods.
(4) Payable to AEI Fund Management -
AEI Fund Management, Inc. performs the administrative and
operating functions for the Partnership. The payable to AEI
Fund Management represents the balance due for those
services. This balance is non-interest bearing and
unsecured and is to be paid in the normal course of
business.
(5) Deferred Income -
In June, 1994, Fuddruckers, Inc., the restaurant concept's
franchisor, acquired the operations of the Fuddruckers
restaurant in St. Louis, Missouri, and assumed the lease
obligations from the original lessee. As part of the
agreement, the Partnership amended the Lease to reduce the
annual base rent from $163,550 to $138,246. In
consideration for the lease assumption and amendment, the
Partnership received a lump sum payment from the original
lessee of $210,277. The lump sum payment was recognized as
income over the Lease term, which was scheduled to expire
January 31, 2008, using the straight line method. As of
March 31, 1999, the Partnership had recognized $73,530 of
this payment as income. On June 16, 1999, the Partnership
sold the Fuddruckers restaurant and the Lease Agreement was
terminated. As a result, the Partnership recognized the
balance of the deferred income of $136,747 in the second
quarter of 1999. At March 31, 2000, deferred income of
$43,663 was prepaid rent related to certain other
Partnership properties.
ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Results of Operations
For the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, the
Partnership recognized rental income of $143,710 and $170,651,
respectively. During the same periods, the Partnership earned
investment income of $12,442 and $868, respectively. In 2000,
rental income decreased as a result of the property sales
discussed below. The decrease in rental income was partially
offset by additional rent received from one property acquisition
in 1999 and by an increase in investment income earned on the net
proceeds from the property sales.
The Partnership owned a 44.9042% interest in a restaurant
in Waco, Texas. In December, 1997, the restaurant was closed and
listed for sale or lease. While the property was vacant, the
Partnership was responsible for the real estate taxes and other
costs required to maintain the property.
ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Continued)
As of December 31, 1997, based on an analysis of market
conditions in the area, it was determined the fair value of the
Partnership's interest in the Waco property was approximately
$314,400. In the fourth quarter of 1997, a charge to operations
for real estate impairment of $80,300 was recognized, which is
the difference between the book value at December 31, 1997 of
$394,700 and the estimated fair value of $314,400. The charge
was recorded against the cost of the land and building. In
December, 1998, the Partnership re-analyzed the market conditions
in the area and determined the fair value of the Partnership's
interest declined to approximately $126,000. In the fourth
quarter of 1998, a charge to operations for real estate
impairment of $180,000 was recognized, which is the difference
between the book value at December 31, 1998 of $306,000 and the
estimated fair value of $126,000. The charge was recorded
against the cost of the land and building.
In March, 1999, the Partnership entered into an agreement
to sell the Waco property to an unrelated third party. On May
10, 1999, the sale closed with the Partnership receiving net sale
proceeds of $128,879 which resulted in a net gain of $4,228. At
the time of sale, the cost and related accumulated depreciation
was $287,710 and $163,059, respectively.
During the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, the
Partnership paid Partnership administration expenses to
affiliated parties of $28,579 and $30,103, respectively. These
administration expenses include costs associated with the
management of the properties, processing distributions, reporting
requirements and correspondence to the Limited Partners. During
the same periods, the Partnership incurred Partnership
administration and property management expenses from unrelated
parties of $6,791 and $11,972, respectively. These expenses
represent direct payments to third parties for legal and filing
fees, direct administrative costs, outside audit and accounting
costs, taxes, insurance and other property costs.
As of March 31, 2000, the Partnership's annualized cash
distribution rate was 7.5%, based on the Adjusted Capital
Contribution. Distributions of Net Cash Flow to the General
Partners were subordinated to the Limited Partners as required in
the Partnership Agreement. As a result, 99% of distributions and
income were allocated to Limited Partners and 1% to the General
Partners.
Inflation has had a minimal effect on income from
operations. It is expected that increases in sales volumes of
the tenants, due to inflation and real sales growth, will result
in an increase in rental income over the terms of the leases.
Inflation also may cause the Partnership's real estate to
appreciate in value. However, inflation and changing prices may
also have an adverse impact on the operating margins of the
properties' tenants which could impair their ability to pay rent
and subsequently reduce the Partnership's Net Cash Flow available
for distributions.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the three months ended March 31, 2000, the
Partnership's cash balances increased $46,356 as the Partnership
distributed less cash to the Partners than it generated from
operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities
increased from $155,889 in 1999 to $179,984 in 2000 as a result
of a decrease in expenses in 2000 and net timing differences in
the collection of payments from the lessees and the payment of
expenses, which were partially offset by a decrease in income in
2000.
ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Continued)
The major components of the Partnership's cash flow from
investing activities are investments in real estate and proceeds
from the sale of real estate. During the three months ended
March 31, 2000, the Partnership expended $3,197 to invest in real
properties (inclusive of acquisition expenses) as the Partnership
reinvested the cash generated from property sales.
In February, 1999, the Partnership entered into an
agreement to sell the Fuddruckers property to an unrelated third
party. On June 16, 1999, the sale closed with the Partnership
receiving net sale proceeds of $1,145,424 which resulted in a net
gain of $270,045. At the time of sale, the cost and related
accumulated depreciation was $1,138,296 and $262,917,
respectively.
In June, 1994, the Partnership received a lump sum payment
of $210,277 as compensation for certain modifications made to the
Fuddruckers' Lease. The lump sum payment was recognized as
income over the Lease term using the straight line method. As a
result of the sale, the Lease Agreement was terminated and the
Partnership recognized the balance of the deferred income of
$136,747 in the second quarter of 1999.
On July 14, 1999, the Partnership purchased a Children's
World daycare center in West Chester, Ohio for $999,163. The
property is leased to ARAMARK Educational Resources, Inc. under a
Lease Agreement with a primary term of 15 years and annual rental
payments of $93,162.
During the third and fourth quarter of 1999, the
Partnership sold its interest in the Timber Lodge Steakhouse in
three separate transactions to unrelated third parties. The
Partnership received total net sale proceeds of $566,111 which
resulted in a total net gain of $81,898. The total cost and
related accumulated depreciation of the property was $510,635 and
$26,421, respectively. The majority of the net sale proceeds
will be reinvested in additional property in the future.
The Partnership's primary use of cash flow is distribution
and redemption payments to Partners. The Partnership declares
its regular quarterly distributions before the end of each
quarter and pays the distribution in the first week after the end
of each quarter. The Partnership attempts to maintain a stable
distribution rate from quarter to quarter. Redemption payments
are paid to redeeming Partners in the fourth quarter of each
year.
The Partnership may acquire Units from Limited Partners
who have tendered their Units to the Partnership. Such Units may
be acquired at a discount. The Partnership is not obligated to
purchase in any year more than 5% of the total number of Units
outstanding at the beginning of the year. In no event shall the
Partnership be obligated to purchase Units if, in the sole
discretion of the Managing General Partner, such purchase would
impair the capital or operation of the Partnership.
During 1999, five Limited Partners redeemed a total of 21
Partnership Units for $9,179 in accordance with the Partnership
Agreement. The Partnership acquired these Units using Net Cash
Flow from operations. In prior years, a total of twenty-one
Limited Partners redeemed 163.5 Units for $115,460. The
redemptions increase the remaining Limited Partners' ownership in
the Partnership.
ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Continued)
The continuing rent payments from the properties, together
with cash generated from the property sales, should be adequate
to fund continuing distributions and meet other Partnership
obligations on both a short-term and long-term basis.
Cautionary Statement for Purposes of the "Safe Harbor" Provisions
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
The foregoing Management's Discussion and Analysis
contains various "forward looking statements" within the meaning

expectations or beliefs concerning future events, including
statements regarding anticipated application of cash, expected
returns from rental income, growth in revenue, taxation levels,
the sufficiency of cash to meet operating expenses, rates of
distribution, and other matters. These, and other forward
looking statements made by the Partnership, must be evaluated in
the context of a number of factors that may affect the
Partnership's financial condition and results of operations,
including the following:
<BULLET> Market and economic conditions which affect
the value of the properties the Partnership owns and
the cash from rental income such properties generate;
<BULLET> the federal income tax consequences of rental
income, deductions, gain on sales and other items and
the affects of these consequences for investors;
<BULLET> resolution by the General Partners of
conflicts with which they may be confronted;
<BULLET> the success of the General Partners of
locating properties with favorable risk return
characteristics;
