                     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                    (Unaudited)

NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Fox Strategic Housing Income
Partners (the "Partnership") 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 Fox Capital Management Corporation ("FCMC" or the "Managing General
Partner"), a California Corporation, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included.  Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 30,
1997, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
fiscal year ending December 31, 1997.  For further information, refer to the
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's annual
report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1996.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1996 information to conform to
the 1997 presentation.

NOTE B - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED PARTIES

The Partnership has no employees and is dependent on 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.

Fox Partners VIII, a California general partnership, is the general partner.
The general partners of Fox Partners VIII are FCMC and Fox Realty Investors
("FRI"), a California general partnership.

Pursuant to a series of transactions which closed during the first half of 1996,
affiliates of Insignia Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia") acquired all of the
issued and outstanding shares of stock of FCMC, NPI Equity Investments II, Inc.
("NPI Equity"), the managing general partner of FRI, and National Property
Investors, Inc. ("NPI").  In connection with these transactions, affiliates of
Insignia appointed new officers and directors of NPI Equity and FCMC.

The following transactions with affiliates of Insignia, NPI, and affiliates of
NPI were incurred during the six month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 (in
thousands):


                                                      Six Months Ended June 30,
                                                          1997           1996
Property management fees (included in operating
  expenses)                                              $  76          $  73
Reimbursement for services of affiliates (included
  in general and administrative and operating
   expenses)                                                35             96


For the period from January 19, 1996, to June 30, 1997, the Partnership insured
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 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.

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 each of
the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996:


                                                       Average
                                                      Occupancy
Property                                          1997         1996

Barrington Place Apartments
  Westlake, Ohio                                   95%           95%

Wood View Apartments
  Atlanta, Georgia                                 93%           95%


The Partnership realized net income for the six months ended June 30, 1997 of
approximately $59,000 compared to a net loss of approximately $151,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 1996.  The Partnership's net income for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 was approximately $43,000 compared to a net loss of
approximately $121,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996.  The increase
in net income is primarily attributable to decreased operating expenses.
Included in operating expense for the six months ended June 30, 1997 is
approximately $23,000 of major repairs and maintenance comprised primarily of
major landscaping.  For the six months ended June 30, 1996, approximately
$135,000 of major repairs and maintenance comprised primarily of an exterior
painting project of approximately $97,000 at Woodview in the second quarter of
1996.  In addition, general and administrative expenses decreased due to a
decrease in expense reimbursements paid to affiliates of the Managing General
Partners.  This decrease is directly related to the costs incurred in connection
with the transition and relocation of the administration offices during 1996.
Increased other income also contributed to the increased net income, primarily
due to increased interest income.  Interest income increased due to higher
average cash balances in the six months ended June 30, 1997, compared to the
corresponding period in 1996.

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 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.

At June 30, 1997, the Partnership held cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $5,090,000, compared to approximately $4,515,000 at June 30, 1996.
Net cash provided by operations increased primarily due to the decreases in
operating and general and administrative expenses as discussed above.  The
decrease in net cash provided by investing activities is the result of proceeds
from a maturing cash investment 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 June 30, 1997,
approximately $5,193,000 in accrued interest has been added to the principal of
this note.  The Partnership is or was 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).  In August 1996, the Partnership paid $782,000, which is 20 percent
of the then outstanding original principal balance (no additional payment of
accrued interest was required).  In August 1997, the Partnership paid
approximately $938,000 of principal.

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 various properties 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 and accrued interest mature August 1, 1998, at which
time the properties will either be refinanced or sold.  Future cash
distributions will depend on the levels of net cash generated from operations,
capital expenditure requirements, property sales, refinancings, and the
availability of cash reserves. In addition, distributions may be limited by the
debt repayments discussed above.  No cash distributions were paid during the six
months ended June 30, 1997 or 1996.  Cash distributions are expected to remain
suspended as a result of the pending debt maturity which is discussed above.
