Note A - Basis of Presentation
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-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 ending December 31, 1996. 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, 1995.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1995 information to conform to
the 1996 presentation.
Note B - Transactions with Affiliated Parties
Fox Strategic Housing Income Partners (the "Partnership") has no employees and
is dependent on NPI Equity Investments II, Inc. ("NPI Equity" or the "Managing
General Partner") and its affiliates for the management and administration of
all partnership activities. The Partnership Agreement provides for payments to
affiliates for services and as reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by
affiliates on behalf of the Partnership.
The following transactions with Insignia Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia"),
National Property Investors, Inc. ("NPI, Inc."), and affiliates were charged to
expense in 1996 and 1995:

</TABLE>
For the period from January 19, 1996, to March 31, 1996, the Partnership insured
its property 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 received 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.
The general partner received cash distributions of $8,000 during the three
months ended March 31, 1995.
An affiliate of NPI, Inc. was paid a fee of $4,000 relating to a successful real
estate tax appeal on the Partnership's Wood View Apartments during the three
months ended March 31, 1995. This fee is included in operating expenses.
Fox Partners VIII, a California general partnership, is the general partner.
The general partners of Fox Partners VIII are Fox Capital Management Corporation
("FCMC"), a California corporation, and Fox Realty Investors ("FRI"), a
California general partnership.
On December 6, 1993, the shareholders of FCMC entered into a Voting Trust
Agreement with NPI Equity pursuant to which NPI Equity was granted the right to
vote 100 percent of the outstanding stock of FCMC and NPI Equity became the
managing general partner of FRI. As a result, NPI Equity became responsible for
the operation and management of the business and affairs of the Partnership and
the other investment partnerships originally sponsored by FCMC and/or FRI. NPI
Equity is a wholly-owned subsidiary of NPI, Inc. The shareholders of FCMC and
the partners in FRI retain indirect economic interests in the Partnership and
such other investment limited partnerships, but have ceased to be responsible
for the operation and management of the Partnership and such other partnerships.
On August 17, 1995, the stockholders of NPI, Inc. entered into an agreement to
sell to IFGP Corporation, a Delaware corporation, an affiliate of Insignia, a
Delaware corporation, all of the issued and outstanding common stock of NPI,
Inc. for an aggregate purchase price of $1,000,000. The closing of the
transactions contemplated by the above mentioned agreement (the "Closing")
occurred on January 19, 1996.
Upon the Closing, the officers and directors of NPI, Inc., FCMC and the Managing
General Partner resigned and IFGP Corporation caused new officers and directors
of each of those entities to be elected.
Note C - Investments
Securities held-to-maturity and available-for-sale: The Managing General
Partner determines the appropriate classification of debt securities at the time
of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date.
Debt securities are classified as held-to-maturity when the Partnership has the
positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. Held-to-
maturity securities are stated at amortized cost, adjusted for amortization of
premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity. Such amortization is included
in investment income. Interest on securities classified as held-to-maturity is
included in investment income.
Marketable equity securities and debt securities not classified as held-to-
maturity are classified as available-for-sale. Presently, all of the
Partnership's investments are classified as held-to-maturity. Available-for-
sale securities are carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses,
net of tax, reported in a separate component of partner's capital. The
amortized cost of debt securities in this category is adjusted for amortization
of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity. Such amortization is
included in investment income. Realized gains and losses and declines in value
judged to be other-than-temporary on available-for-sale securities are included
in investment income. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific
identification method. Interest and dividends on securities classified as
available-for-sale are included in investment income.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
The Partnership's investment properties consist of two 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
Property 1996 1995
Barrington Place Apartments
Westlake, Ohio 96% 97%
Wood View Apartments
Atlanta, Georgia 95% 96%
The Partnership's net loss for the three months ended March 31, 1996, was
approximately $30,000 versus approximately $74,000 net loss for the same period
of 1995. The decrease in the net loss is primarily attributable to a decrease
in depreciation expense due to approximately $851,000 of fixed assets becoming
fully depreciated in 1995. Also contributing to this change is a decrease in
interest expense resulting from a lower principal balance due to the principal
payment in 1995. Partially offsetting these decreases in net loss was an
increase in operating expenses due to an increase in property tax expense.
Property tax expense increased due to additional payments which were required
when the properties lost their tax appeals. In addition, general and
administrative expenses increased due to increased costs in connection with
personnel in Greenville and Atlanta during the transition of the Managing
General Partner.
As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the Managing General
Partner monitors the rental market environment of its investment properties to
assess the feasibility of increasing rents, maintaining or increasing occupancy
levels and protecting the Partnership from increases in expenses. 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 conditions, there is no guarantee that the
Managing General Partner will be able to sustain such a plan.
At March 31, 1996, the Partnership had unrestricted cash of approximately
$1,736,000 as compared to approximately $2,218,000 at March 31, 1995. Net cash
provided by operating activities decreased primarily as a result of an increase
in receivables and other assets. Offsetting this change is an increase in
accrued expenses and other liabilities due to the prepayment of rent. The
increase in cash used in investing activities is due to an increase in property
improvements and replacements. The decrease in cash used in financing
activities is the result of the Partnership making distributions in the first
quarter of 1995 with no such activity in 1996.
The Partnership's properties are cross-collateralized by a zero coupon first
mortgage which secures the entire amount of the note payable. Interest accrues
on the amount borrowed at a contract rate of 10.9 percent per annum, with the
interest accrued added to principal each January and July. As of March 31,
1996, approximately $4,303,000 in accrued interest has been added to the
principal of this note. The Partnership is required to repay a specified
percentage of the then outstanding original principal amount of the loan as
follows: 20 percent in August 1995, 20 percent in August 1996, and 30 percent
in August 1997. In addition, provided that the Partnership has generated income
in an amount as defined in the note agreement, it will be required to repay a
specified percentage of the then outstanding accrued interest added to principal
as follows: 20 percent in August 1995, 20 percent in August 1996, and 30
percent in August 1997. The remaining principal balance plus all accrued and
unpaid interest is due in August 1998. In August 1995, the Partnership paid
approximately $1,947,000 (which included $970,000 of accrued interest added to
principal.) The Partnership anticipates having funds available for the August
1996 payment.
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. Future cash
distributions will depend on the levels of cash generated from operations, a
property sale, and the availability of cash reserves. In addition,
distributions may be limited by the debt repayment discussed above. Cash
distributions paid in 1995 totalled approximately $799,000 with approximately
$400,000 paid in the three months ended March 31, 1995. No cash distributions
were paid during the three months ended March 31, 1996. At this time it appears
that the initial investment objective of capital growth will not be attained and
that limited partners will not receive a return of all of their invested
capital.
