1. Organization of Partnership
   ---------------------------
     John Hancock Realty Income Fund Limited Partnership (the
     "Partnership") was formed under the Massachusetts Uniform Limited
     Partnership Act on June 12, 1986.  As of March 31, 1995, the
     Partnership consisted of John Hancock Realty Equities, Inc. (the
     "General Partner"), a wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of John
     Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company; John Hancock Realty Funding,
     Inc. (the "John Hancock Limited Partner"); and 4,227 Investor Limited
     Partners (the "Investors"), owning 91,647 Units of Investor Limited
     Partnership Interests (the "Units").  The John Hancock Limited Partner
     and the Investors are collectively referred to as the Limited
     Partners.  The initial capital of the Partnership was $2,000,
     representing capital contributions of $1,000 from the General Partner
     and $1,000 from the John Hancock Limited Partner.  The Amended
     Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership (the "Partnership
     Agreement") authorized the issuance of up to 100,000 Units of Limited
     Partnership Interests at $500 per unit.  During the offering period,
     which terminated on September 9, 1987, 91,647 Units were sold and the
     John Hancock Limited Partner made additional capital contributions of
     $7,330,760.  There have been no changes in the number of Units
     outstanding subsequent to the termination of the offering period.  The
     Partnership is engaged in the business of acquiring, improving,
     operating, holding for investment and disposing of existing, income-
     producing, commercial and industrial properties on an all-cash basis,
     free and clear of mortgage indebtedness.  Although the Partnership's
     properties were acquired and are held free and clear of mortgage
     indebtedness, the Partnership may incur mortgage indebtedness on its
     properties under certain circumstances, as described in the
     Partnership Agreement.

     The latest date on which the Partnership is due to terminate is
     December 31, 2016, unless it is sooner terminated in accordance with
     the terms of the Partnership Agreement.  It is expected that in the
     ordinary course of the Partnership's business, the properties of the
     Partnership will be disposed of, and the Partnership terminated,
     before December 31, 2016.

2. Significant Accounting Policies
   -------------------------------
     The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
     accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
     financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule
     10-01 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
     information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
     principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of
     management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
     considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
     Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 1995 are
     not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
     year ending December 31, 1995.  For further information, refer to the
     financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
     Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
     31, 1994.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
   -------------------------------------------
     Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with maturities of
     three months or less when purchased.  These investments are recorded
     at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates market value.
     Restricted cash represents funds restricted for tenant security
     deposits and other escrows, and has been designated as short or long-
     term, based upon the term of the related lease agreement.

     Investments in property are recorded at cost less any property write-
     downs for permanent impairment in values.  Cost includes the initial
     purchase price of the property plus acquisition and legal fees, other
     miscellaneous acquisition costs, and the cost of significant
     improvements.

     Depreciation has been provided on a straight-line basis over the
     estimated useful lives of the various assets:  thirty years for the
     buildings and five years for related improvements.  Maintenance and
     repairs are charged to operations as incurred.

     Deferred expenses relating to tenant improvements and lease
     commissions are amortized on a straight-line basis over the various
     lease terms.  During 1993, the Partnership reduced the period over
     which its remaining deferred acquisition fees are amortized from
     thirty years, the estimated useful life of the buildings owned by the
     Partnership, to four and one-half years, the then estimated remaining
     life of the Partnership.

     The net income per Unit for the periods hereof are computed by
     dividing the Investors' share of net income by the number of Units
     outstanding at the end of such period.

     No provision for income taxes has been made in the financial
     statements as such taxes are the responsibility of the individual
     partners and not of the Partnership.


3. The Partnership Agreement
   -------------------------
     Distributable Cash from Operations (as defined in the Partnership
     Agreement) is distributed 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the
     General Partner.  The Limited Partners' share of Distributable Cash
     from Operations is distributed as follows:  first, to the Investors
     until they receive a 7% non-cumulative, non-compounded annual cash
     return on their Invested Capital (as defined in the Partnership
     Agreement); second, to the John Hancock Limited Partner until it
     receives a 7% non-cumulative, non-compounded annual cash return on its
     Invested Capital; and third, to the Investors and the John Hancock
     Limited Partner in proportion to their respective Capital
     Contributions (as defined in the Partnership Agreement).  However, any
     Distributable Cash from Operations which is available as a result of
     the reduction of working capital reserves funded by Capital
     Contributions of the Investors is distributed 100% to the Investors.

3. The Partnership Agreement (continued)
   -------------------------------------
     Profits for tax purposes from the normal operations of the Partnership
     for each fiscal year are allocated to the Limited Partners and General
     Partner in the same amounts as Distributable Cash from Operations for
     that year.  If such profits are less than Distributable Cash from
     Operations for any year, they are allocated in proportion to the
     amounts of Distributable Cash from Operations for that year.  If such
     profits are greater than Distributable Cash from Operations for any
     year, they are allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the
     General Partner, with the allocation made between the John Hancock
     Limited Partner and the Investors in proportion to their respective
     Capital Contributions.  Losses for tax purposes from the normal
     operations of the Partnership are allocated 99% to the Limited
     Partners and 1% to the General Partner, with the allocation made
     between the John Hancock Limited Partner and the Investors in
     proportion to their respective Capital Contributions.  However, tax
     deductions arising from the Initial Expenses (as defined in the
     Partnership Agreement) which are paid by the Partnership from the
     Capital Contributions made by the John Hancock Limited Partner and all
     other tax aspects of the Partnership's payment of the Initial Expenses
     (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) are allocated 1% to the
     General Partner and 99% to the John Hancock Limited Partner, and not
     to the Investors.  Depreciation deductions are allocated 1% to the
     General Partner and 99% to the Investors, and not to the John Hancock
     Limited Partner.

     The net realizable value of a real estate investment held for long-
     term investment purposes is measured by the recoverability of the
     investment through expected future cash flows on an undiscounted
     basis, which may exceed the related property's current market value.

Item 2:  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

General
- -------
During the offering period from September 9, 1986 to September 9, 1987, the
Partnership sold 91,647 Units representing gross proceeds (exclusive of the
John Hancock Limited Partner's contribution which was used to pay sales
commissions, acquisition fees and organizational and offering expenses) of
$45,823,500.  The proceeds of the offering were used to acquire investment
properties and fund reserves.  These properties are described more fully in
Note 4 to the Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Report.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
At March 31, 1995, the Partnership had $3,232,697 in cash and cash
equivalents, $22,457 in restricted cash and $22,166 in long-term restricted
cash.

The Partnership has established a working capital reserve with a current
balance of approximately 5% of the offering proceeds.  Liquidity would,
however, be materially adversely affected by a significant reduction in
revenues, unanticipated operating costs or unanticipated capital
expenditures.  If any or all of these events were to occur, to the extent
that working capital reserves would be insufficient to satisfy the cash
requirements of the Partnership, it is anticipated that additional funds
would be obtained through a further reduction of cash distributions to
Investors, bank loans, short-term loans from the General Partner or its
affiliates, or the sale or financing of Partnership properties.

During the three months ended March 31, 1995, cash from working capital
reserves was used for the payment of leasing costs in the amount of $79,187
incurred at the Carnegie Center and Warner Plaza properties.  The General
Partner estimates that the Partnership will incur approximately $870,000 of
additional leasing costs at its properties during the remainder of 1995.
Of this amount, approximately $407,000 and $254,000 are expected to be
incurred at the Carnegie Center and 1300 North Dutton Avenue  properties,
respectively, in connection with the Partnership's efforts to secure new
tenants at these properties.  The General Partner anticipates that the
current balance in the working capital reserve will be sufficient to pay
such costs.

During 1994 a tenant that occupied 45% of the Carnegie Center property did
not renew its leases upon their expiration and, as a result, the property's
occupancy declined to 35%.  For the year ended December 31, 1994, the
leases held by the former tenant mentioned above represented 9% of the
rental income earned by the Partnership.  During the first quarter of 1995
a new tenant executed a lease for 14,375 square feet of space, or 11% of
the property, for a three year term which commenced in March 1995.  The
Partnership incurred approximately $76,000 in leasing costs during 1995 in
connection with this lease.

The Carnegie Center property was 46% occupied at March 31, 1995.  The
General Partner is actively seeking tenants for the remaining vacant space.
Should additional tenants not be located to take occupancy in the near
future, the Partnership's liquidity would be materially adversely affected.
Rental rates and concessions are priced competitively in order to secure
new tenants for the property.

Item 2:  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (continued)

Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)
- -------------------------------------------
The tenant that leased all of the rentable space at the 1300 North Dutton
Avenue property notified the Partnership during 1994 that it would not
renew its lease upon its expiration on January 31, 1995.  The General
Partner has been actively seeking a replacement tenant for the property.
Should a replacement tenant not be located to take occupancy of the
property before the end of 1995, the Partnership's liquidity would be
adversely affected.  For the year ended December 31, 1994, the 1300 North
Dutton Avenue property generated approximately 11% of the rental income
earned by the Partnership.

During the first quarter of 1995, J.C. Penney extended its lease at the
J.C. Penney Credit Operations Center through June 2006.  The tenant was
granted an option to terminate the lease during the year 2001 upon the
payment of $710,325.  The Partnership did not incur any leasing costs in
connection with this lease extension.

During the three months ended March 31, 1995, approximately $7,900 of cash
from operations was used to fund non-recurring maintenance and repair costs
incurred at the Partnership's properties.  The General Partner estimates
that the Partnership will incur additional non-recurring repair and
maintenance costs of approximately $113,000 at its properties during the
remainder of 1995.  These additional costs will be funded from the
operations of the Partnership's properties and are not expected to have a
significant impact on the Partnership's liquidity.

Cash in the amount of $578,579 generated from the Partnership's operations,
was distributed to the General Partner and the Limited Partners during the
first quarter of 1995.  The General Partner currently anticipates that the
Partnership will be able to make comparable distributions during each of
the three remaining quarters of 1995.

The General Partner evaluated the carrying value of the Carnegie Center
property during the third quarter of 1994 by comparing it to future
undiscounted cash flows and a recent internal appraisal in order to
determine whether a permanent impairment in value existed.  Based on such
evaluation, the General Partner determined that a write-down of $512,000
was required at that time to reflect the estimated permanent impairment in
the value of the Carnegie Center property.  Lower rental rates and weak
absorption for available office/industrial properties in Cincinnati, Ohio,
in general, have resulted in a decline in this property's market value.
The carrying value of the Carnegie Center property at December 31, 1994 was
evaluated in comparison to the estimated future cash flows and a recent
internal appraisal and, based upon such evaluation, the General Partner
determined that no further permanent impairment in value existed and,
therefore, an additional write-down in value was not required as of
December 31, 1994.

The General Partner also evaluated the carrying value of each of the
Partnership's other properties as of December 31, 1994 by comparing such
value to the respective property's future undiscounted cash flows and the
most recent independent or internal appraisals.  Based on such evaluations,
the General Partner determined that no permanent impairment in values
existed with respect to these properties and no additional write-downs were
recorded as of December 31, 1994.  The General Partner will continue to
conduct property valuations, using internal or independent appraisals, in
order to determine whether a permanent impairment in value exists on any of
the Partnership's properties.

Results of Operations (continued)

Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1995 was $443,114, as
compared to net income of $551,435 for the same period in 1994.  This
$108,321 decrease in net income is primarily due to declines in the
performance of the Carnegie Center and 1300 North Dutton Avenue properties
which were partially offset by increases in the performance of the
Crossroads Square and Warner Plaza properties.

Average occupancy for the Partnership's properties for the three months
ended March 31, 1995 was as follows:

     1300 North Dutton Avenue Office Complex                    33%
     Marlboro Square Shopping Center                            75%
     Crossroads Square Shopping Center                          97%
     Carnegie Center Office/Warehouse                           39%
     Warner Plaza Shopping Center                               98%
     J.C. Penney Credit Operations Center                      100%

Rental income for the three months ended March 31, 1995 decreased by
$130,293, or 14%, as compared to the same period in 1994.  This decrease is
primarily due to decreases in rental income at the 1300 North Dutton Avenue
and Carnegie Center properties which were partially offset by increases in
rental income at the Crossroads Square and Warner Plaza properties.  Rental
income at the 1300 North Dutton Avenue property decreased by 65% during the
three months ended March 31, 1995 as compared to the same period in 1994
due to the expiration on January 31, 1995 of the lease held by the sole
tenant at the property.  Rental income at the Carnegie Center property
decreased by 75% during the three months ended March 31, 1995 as compared
to the same period in 1994 due to a decrease in average occupancy from 80%
to 39% between periods.  These decreases in rental income were partially
offset by increases in rental income at the Crossroads Square and Warner
Plaza properties of 10% and 11%, respectively.  These increases were
primarily due to increases in average occupancy at these properties between
periods.  Rental income at the Marlboro Square and J.C. Penney properties
was consistent between periods.

Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 1995 increased by
$22,628, or 122%, as compared to the same period in 1994.  This increase is
primarily due to an increase in the interest rates earned on the
Partnership's working capital reserves as well as an increase in the amount
of such reserves.

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31,
1995 increased by $11,962, or 25%, as compared to the same period in 1994.
This increase is primarily due to legal fees incurred in connection with
the new leases entered into at two of the Partnership's properties during
the first quarter of 1995 and an increase in postage charges on investor
mailings resulting from the increase in postal rates.

Amortization of deferred expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1995
decreased by $5,657, or 15%, as compared to the same period in 1994.  This
decrease is primarily due to the expiration of certain leases at the 1300
North Dutton Avenue, Carnegie Center and Marlboro Square properties and the
full amortization of the related deferred leasing costs.

The General Partner believes that inflation has had no significant impact
on the Partnership's operations during the three months ended March 31,
1995, and the General Partner anticipates that inflation will not have a
significant impact during the remainder of 1995.

Cash Flow (continued)
- ---------------------
During the second quarter of 1995, the Partnership expects to make a cash
distribution of $572,793, representing a 5% annualized return, to all
Investors of record at March 31, 1995, based on Distributable Cash from
Operations for the quarter then ended.  The General Partner anticipates
that the Partnership will make comparable cash distributions during each of
the remaining three quarters of 1995.
