Note A - Basis of Presentation

   The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b)
of Regulation S-B.  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 the Managing General Partner, 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, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may be expected for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996.  For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in the Partnership's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 1995.

   Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1995 information to conform
to the 1996 presentation.


Note B - Transactions with Affiliated Parties

   Affiliates of Insignia Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia") own the controlling
ownership interest in the Partnership s Managing General Partner, with certain
affiliates of Insignia providing property management and asset management
services to the Partnership.

   The following payments were made to Insignia and its affiliates in the
quarters ended March 31, 1996 and 1995:

Note B - Transactions with Affiliated Parties (continued)

   The Partnership insures its properties under a master policy through an
agency and insurer unaffiliated with the Managing General Partner.  An affiliate
of the Managing General Partner acquired, in the acquisition of a business,
certain financial obligations from an insurance agency which was later acquired
by the agent who placed the current year's master policy.  The current agent
assumed the financial obligations to the affiliate of the Managing General
Partner, who receives payments on these obligations from the agent.  The amount
of the Partnership's insurance premiums accruing to the benefit of the affiliate
of the Managing General Partner by virtue of the agent's obligations is not
significant.

   Subordinated partnership management fees of $55,000 had not been paid to the
Managing General Partner as of March 31, 1996.  $6,000 of this amount relates to
the current year. 

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

   The Partnership's investment properties consist of three apartment complexes.
The following table sets forth the average occupancy of the properties for the
three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995:

                                                          
                                                       Average  
                                                      Occupancy 
                                                                              
                                                  1996         1995

    Plano, Texas                                   98%          99% 
 The Village Apartments                                             
    Brandon, Florida                               98%          98% 
 Brighton Crest Apartments                                          
    Marietta, Georgia                              96%          96% 


   The Partnership realized net income of $77,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1996, compared to net income of $160,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1995.   Rental income increased slightly due to rental increases at
all three properties since the first quarter of 1995.  The decrease in other
income was primarily due to a nonrecurring tax refund of approximately $20,000
received in the first quarter of 1995 for The Village Apartments resulting from
a property value reassessment. 

  Total expenses increased for the three months ended March 31, 1996, compared
to the three months ended March 31, 1995, primarily due to increases in
operating and maintenance expenses.  The increase in operating expenses was
partly due to salary increases for the first quarter of 1996 compared to the
first quarter of 1995. This increase resulted from the hiring of a full-time
painter at The Fairway Apartments.  In addition, all properties experienced
increases in utility expenses during 1996.  The increase in maintenance expense
for the three months ended March 31, 1996, was due to increases at all of the
properties.  The Village Apartments had a maintenance increase of approximately
$18,000 due to major landscaping projects including tree trimming, tree
removals, and parking lot repairs.  The Fairway Apartments had a maintenance
increase of approximately $19,000 due to exterior building repairs and major
repairs to the sprinkler system.  Brighton Crest Apartments experienced major
plumbing and pipe repairs due to damages from extreme cold weather in January
and February of 1996.  These maintenance items resulted in a maintenance expense
increase of approximately $ 24,000 for Brighton Crest Apartments.  

   The loss on disposal of property for the three months ended March 31, 1995,
related to roof replacements at The Fairway Apartments.   

   As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the Managing General
Partner monitors the rental market environment of each of its investment
properties to assess the feasibility of increasing rents, maintaining or
increasing occupancy levels and protecting the Partnership from increases in
expense.  As part of this plan, the Managing General Partner attempts to protect
the Partnership from the burden of inflation-related increases in expenses by
increasing rents and maintaining a high overall occupancy level.  However, due
to changing market conditions, which can result in the use of rental concessions
and rental reductions to offset softening market conditions, there is no
guarantee that the Managing General Partner will be able to sustain such a plan.

  The Partnership held unrestricted cash of $1,042,000 at March 31, 1996,
compared to unrestricted cash of $1,866,000 at March 31, 1995.  Net cash
provided by operating activities was comparable for the quarters ended March 31,
1996 and 1995.  Net cash used in investing activities increased primarily due to
increased property improvements and replacements.  Net cash used in financing
activities increased primarily due to increased partner distributions and
distributions to the minority partner.

   On December 8, 1995, an affiliate of the Managing General Partner, DGP
Acquisition, L.L.C., ("DGP Acquisition"), distributed an offer to purchase up to
11,349 Limited Partner Units (the "Tender Offer") for a cash price of $240 per
Unit to Limited Partners of record as of October 1, 1995.  The Tender offer,
which originally expired on January 8, 1996, was extended to January 16, 1996. 
Approximately 254 Limited Partners holding approximately 2,049 Units (7.22% of
total Units) accepted the Tender Offer and sold their units to DGP Acquisition
for an aggregate sales price of approximately $492,000.  As of January 1996,
there were 2,829 holders of record owning an aggregate of 28,371.75 Units.

   The sufficiency of existing liquid assets to meet future liquidity and
capital expenditure requirements is directly related to the level of capital
expenditures required at the property to adequately maintain the physical assets
and other operating needs of the Partnership.  Such assets are currently thought
to be sufficient for any near-term needs of the Partnership.  The mortgage
indebtedness of approximately $12,283,000, net of discount, is amortized over 21
years to approximately 29 years with balloon payments due in 2002 and 2003 at
which time the individual properties will either be refinanced or sold.  Future
cash distributions will depend on the levels of net cash generated from
operations, property sales and the availability of cash reserves.  Cash
distributions of $360,000 and $344,000 were made to the partners for the
quarters ended March 31, 1996, and 1995, respectively. Cash distributions of
$7,000 were paid to the minority interest holder during the quarter ended March
31, 1996.
