                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1. Accounting Policies:

(a) In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation have been made to the accompanying statements for the nine months
and quarter ended September 30, 1997, and all such adjustments are of a normal
and recurring nature.

(b) For financial statement purposes, in previous years partners were allocated
income and loss in accordance with the profit and loss percentages in the
Partnership Agreement. In order for the capital accounts of the General Partner
and Unitholders to appropriately reflect their respective remaining economic
interests as provided for in the Partnership Agreement, the (loss) income
allocations between the partners have been adjusted for financial statement
purposes in 1997 and 1996.

2. Partnership Termination:

The Partnership Agreement provides for the dissolution of the Partnership upon
the disposition of all its interests in real estate. The Partnership sold the
Autumn Woods Apartments in August 1996. A portion of the proceeds from the sale
were distributed to Unitholders in October 1996. The Partnership retained a
portion of the cash to satisfy obligations of the Partnership as well as
establish a reserve for contingencies.  The timing of the termination of the
Partnership and final distribution of cash will depend upon the nature and
extent of liabilities and contingencies which continue to exist and which may
also arise. Such contingencies currently consist primarily of legal and other
fees and costs stemming from litigation involving the Partnership including the
lawsuit discussed in Note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements. Due to this
litigation, the Partnership will not be dissolved and reserves will be held by
the Partnership until the conclusion of all contingencies. There can be no
assurances as to the time frame for conclusion of these contingencies.

3. Interest Expense:

During the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the Partnership incurred and
paid interest expense on the mortgage note payable of $484,575.

4. Transactions with Affiliates:

Fees and expenses paid and payable by the Partnership to affiliates during the
nine months and quarter ended September 30, 1997 are:

                                    Nine Months    Quarter      Payable
                                    ------------  ---------    ----------     

   Reimbursement of expenses to
     the General Partner, at cost   $ 38,763       $ 6,908     $ 16,366

In conjunction with the May 1993 financing of Autumn Woods Apartments, the
monthly debt service payments due on the first mortgage loan were required to
be funded by advances from the General Partner through December 16, 1994, at
which time the General Partner loan became due, and was extended. The General
Partner loan and accrued interest were repaid in full in August 1996 from
proceeds received in connection with the sale of Autumn Woods Apartments.
During the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the Partnership incurred
interest expense on this loan of $36,262. Interest expense was computed at the
American Express Company cost of funds rate plus a spread to cover
administrative costs. As of September 30, 1996, this rate was 5.931%. 

5. Contingency:

The Partnership is currently involved in a lawsuit whereby the Partnership and
certain affiliates have been named as defendants alleging certain federal
securities law violations with regard to the adequacy and accuracy of
disclosures of information concerning, as well as the marketing efforts related
to, the offering of the Units of the Partnership. The defendants continue to
vigorously contest this action. A plaintiff class has not yet been certified,
and no determination of the merits have been made. It is not determinable at
this time whether or not an unfavorable decision in this action would have a
material adverse impact on the financial position, operations and liquidity of
the Partnership. The Partnership believes it has meritorious defenses to
contest the claims.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Balcor Current Income Fund-87 A Real Estate Limited Partnership (the
"Partnership") is a limited partnership formed in 1986 to invest in and operate
income-producing real property. The Partnership raised $14,942,190 from sales
of Limited Partnership Depositary Units and utilized these proceeds to acquire
a joint venture interest in Autumn Woods Apartments. Autumn Woods Apartments
was sold in August 1996.

Inasmuch as the management's discussion and analysis below relates primarily to
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 1996 for a more complete understanding of
the Partnership's financial position.

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

The Partnership recognized a large gain related to the sale of Autumn Woods
Apartments in August 1996, which was the primary reason the Partnership
generated significant net income during the nine months ended September 30,
1996 as compared to a net loss during the same period in 1997. The gain on sale
also resulted in higher net income for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 as
compared to the same period in 1997. Further discussion of the Partnership's
operations is summarized below.

1997 Compared to 1996
- ---------------------

Unless otherwise noted, discussions of fluctuations between 1997 and 1996 refer
to the nine months and quarters ended September 30, 1997 and 1996.

As a result of the sale of Autumn Woods Apartments in August 1996, rental and
service income, interest expense on mortgage note payable, depreciation
expense, amortization expense, property operating expense, real estate tax
expense and property management fees ceased.

As a result of higher average cash balances during the third quarter of 1996
due to the investment of proceeds received by the Partnership from the sale of
the Autumn Woods Apartments in August 1996 prior to distribution to Unitholders
in October 1996, interest income on short-term investments decreased during the
quarter ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the same period in 1996. The
Partnership has retained a portion of the sale proceeds as discussed below. The
investment of these proceeds during 1997 offset the above decrease in interest
income during the quarter ended September 30, 1997. As a result, interest
income on short-term investments remained relatively unchanged during the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the same period in 1996.
<PAGE>
The General Partner loan was repaid in August 1996 from a portion of the
proceeds received from the sale of Autumn Woods Apartments. As a result,
interest expense on short-term loan payable - affiliate ceased.

Incentive partnership management fees earned by the General Partner, which were
based on Net Cash Receipts, ceased as a result of the sale of Autumn Woods
Apartments during 1996.

Primarily as a result of decreased accounting and portfolio management fees,
administrative expenses decreased during 1997 when compared to 1996.

The Autumn Woods Apartments was owned by a joint venture consisting of the
Partnership and an affiliate. In August 1996, the joint venture sold the
property and the Partnership recognized a gain on sale of $7,902,305.

As a result of the sale of Autumn Woods Apartments in 1996, affiliate's
participation in income of joint venture ceased.

In connection with the sale of Autumn Woods Apartments, the Partnership wrote
off the remaining unamortized deferred expense in the amount of $58,410. In
addition, the Partnership incurred a prepayment penalty of $190,030 in
connection with the repayment of the underlying mortgage note payable. For
financial statement purposes, these two amounts were recognized as
extraordinary items and classified as debt extinguishment expense.

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

The cash position of the Partnership increased by approximately $247,000 as of
September 30, 1997, when compared to December 31, 1996, primarily due to the
collection of insurance proceeds as discussed below. Operating activities
generated cash of approximately $247,000 which consisted of the collection of
an account receivable related to property insurance proceeds and interest
income on short-term investments which were partially offset by the payment of
administrative expenses.  

Since inception, Unitholders have received distributions of Net Cash Receipts
of $6.73 and Net Cash Proceeds of $4.51 totaling $11.24 per $15.00 Unit as well
as certain tax benefits. Unitholders will not recover all of their original
investment. Since inception, the General Partner has received distributions of
Net Cash Receipts totaling $55,044. Additionally since inception, the General
Partner has received $420,158 of Incentive Partnership Management fees. The
General Partner has not and will not receive any distributions of Net Cash
Proceeds. 
 
The Partnership Agreement provides for the dissolution of the Partnership upon
the disposition of all its interests in real estate. The Partnership sold the
Autumn Woods Apartments in August 1996. The Partnership has retained a portion
of the cash from the sale of the Autumn Woods Apartments to satisfy obligations
of the Partnership as well as establish a reserve for contingencies. The timing
of the termination of the Partnership and final distribution of cash will
depend upon the nature and extent of liabilities and contingencies which
continue to exist and which may also arise. Such contingencies currently
<PAGE>
consist primarily of legal and other fees and costs stemming from litigation
involving the Partnership including the lawsuit discussed in Note 5 of Notes to
Financial Statements. Due to this litigation, the Partnership will not be
dissolved and reserves will be held by the Partnership until the conclusion of
all contingencies. There can be no assurances as to the time frame for
conclusion of these contingencies.
