1.   The   Partnership,  Basis  of   Presentation   and
Accounting Policies

Dean  Witter/Coldwell Banker Tax Exempt Mortgage  Fund,
L.P.  (the  "Partnership")  is  a  limited  partnership
organized  under the laws of the State of  Delaware  on
August 20, 1986.

On    February   26,   1998,   the   Partnership   sold
substantially  all  of  its  non-cash  assets   to   an
unaffiliated  party  for  an aggregate  sale  price  of
$127,000,000.

Pursuant  to the sales agreements, the Partnership  was
required  to  deposit  into escrow  $8,890,000,  for  a
period  of  nine months, for the purpose of  satisfying
any  and  all  claims for indemnification  against  the
Partnership.   The  escrow shall  be  released  to  the
Partnership  upon the expiration of that  time  period,
except  for  amounts subject to claims  made  prior  to
expiration  of such period. Amounts subject  to  claims
shall be disbursed from such escrow account pursuant to
the  resolution of such claims by a court of  competent
jurisdiction  or  by agreement between the  Partnership
and the purchaser.

At closing, the Partnership received approximately $111
million  in cash, representing the sales price  net  of
the  Purchaser's deposit, closing costs, and the escrow
fund described in the preceding paragraph.

At  closing,  pursuant to the agreements, $750,000  was
paid   from   the  escrow  to  settle   a   claim   for
indemnification. Accordingly, the amount  remaining  in
such escrow fund is $8,140,000.

Pursuant  to  the  Partnership's Agreement  of  Limited
Partnership,  the sale effectuated the  dissolution  of
the Partnership and, accordingly, the Partnership is in
the process of winding up its affairs.  After the final
distribution  of remaining net cash proceeds  from  the
sale  and  any other remaining cash from operations  or
reserves, the Partnership will terminate.

 DEAN WITTER/COLDWELL BANKER TAX EXEMPT MORTGAGE FUND,
                         L.P.
                           
             Notes to Financial Statements
                           
The Partnership's records are maintained on the accrual
basis  of  accounting for financial reporting  and  tax
purposes.

Net income per Assigned Benefit Certificate ("ABC")  is
calculated  by  dividing net income  allocated  to  the
Investors,   in   accordance   with   the   Partnership
Agreement, by the number of ABCs outstanding.

In   the   opinion  of  management,  the   accompanying
financial  statements,  which have  not  been  audited,
include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the
results for the interim periods. Except for the gain on
sale   of  assets  described  above,  such  adjustments
consist only of normal recurring accruals.

These   financial   statements  should   be   read   in
conjunction  with the annual financial  statements  and
notes  thereto  included  in the  Partnership's  annual
report  on  Form  10-K filed with  the  Securities  and
Exchange  Commission for the year  ended  December  31,
1997.

The  Partnership adopted Financial Accounting Standards
Board   Statement  No.  130,  "Reporting  Comprehensive
Income"  and  Statement  No.  131,  "Disclosures  about
Segments  of  an  Enterprise and  Related  Information"
during  the first quarter of 1998.  Adoption  of  these
standards   had   no   impact  on   the   Partnership's
computation or presentation of net income per  Unit  of
Limited Partnership interest or other disclosures.

2. Investment in Revenue Bonds

The Partnership recognized provisions for uncollectible
interest of $644,095 for the six months ended June  30,
1997, which represented accrued but unpaid interest  on
the Park at Landmark revenue bond in 1997.  This amount
was  recorded  as a reduction of interest  income  from
revenue bonds.

The  amortized  cost  basis of the  revenue  bonds  was
$97,122,089 at December 31, 1997.  Net unrealized  gain
on revenue bonds consisted of gross unrealized gains of
$23,195,661.

             Notes to Financial Statements
                           
3. Related Party Transactions

An   affiliate   of   the  General   Partner   performs
administrative     functions,    processes     investor
transactions  and  prepares  tax  information  for  the
Partnership and, prior to their sale, was the  servicer
of  the  revenue bonds.  For the six months ended  June
30,   1998   and   1997,   the   Partnership   incurred
approximately $121,000 and $258,000, respectively,  for
these services.  As of June 30, 1998, the affiliate was
owed approximately $5,000 for these services.

Another affiliate of the General Partner earned fees of
$15,655  and $52,175 for the management of the Park  at
Landmark property during the six months ended June  30,
1998 and 1997, respectively.

4. Litigation

Various   public  partnerships  sponsored   by   Realty
(including  the  Partnership and its  Managing  General
Partner) were defendants in a class action lawsuit.  On
July 17, 1998, the Delaware Chancery Court granted  the
defendants'  motion  to dismiss the  complaint  in  the
lawsuit.  The Plaintiffs have thirty days during  which
to  file a notice of appeal from the Court's order; the
Partnership does not know whether they intend to do so.

In  May  1998, the Partnership and the General  Partner
settled, on favorable terms, the action filed by  David
Johnson, an ABC Holder, on or about August 27, 1996  in
the Circuit Court of Jackson County, Missouri at Kansas
City.  The Partnership did not bear any portion of  the
settlement.

quarter   cash  distribution  of  $2,422,585   to   the

1. Organization

TEMPO-LP, Inc. (the "Corporation"), was formed in April
1986   to   be   the  limited  partner  of   the   Dean
Witter/Coldwell Banker Tax Exempt Mortgage  Fund,  L.P.
(the  "Partnership").  The Partnership  issued  limited
partnership interests to the Corporation, which in turn
assigned   those  limited  partnership   interests   to
investors.   Investors   received   assigned    benefit
certificates  to  represent  the  limited   partnership
interests assigned to them.  The Corporation has had no
activity  since  assignment of the limited  partnership
interests in 1986.

The  Corporation's  capital stock is  owned  by  Morgan
Stanley Dean Witter & Co.

                         L.P.
                           
                     TEMPO-LP INC.

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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The   Partnership  raised  $149,082,200  in  a   public
offering  of  7,454,110 ABCs which  was  terminated  in
1987.    The  Registrants  have  no  plans   to   raise
additional capital.

The  Partnership purchased ten series of revenue bonds,
the  proceeds of which funded the development of  eight
multi-family residential properties (the "Properties").

One of the revenue bonds was sold in October 1997.   On
February  26, 1998, the Partnership sold the  remaining
revenue  bonds  and  its  ownership  interests  in  the
properties collateralizing certain bonds.  Pursuant  to
the Partnership's Agreement of Limited Partnership, the
sale  effectuated  the dissolution of  the  Partnership
and,  accordingly,  after  the  final  distribution  of
remaining net cash proceeds from the sale and any other
remaining   cash  from  operations  or  reserves,   the
Partnership will terminate. See Note 1 to the financial
statements.

Operations

Fluctuations in the Partnership's operating results for
the  three- and six-month periods ended June  30,  1998
compared to 1997 were attributable to the sale  of  the
Partnership's revenue bonds and investments in property-
owning investees.
                           
Inflation

Inflation has been consistently low during the  periods
presented in the financial statements and, as a result,
has  not had a significant effect on the operations  of
the Partnership or its properties.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.   Legal Proceedings

       Holder,  on  or  about August 27,  1996  in  the
