                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)


NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Multi-Benefit
Realty Fund '87-1 (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 ConCap Equities, Inc. (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 and six
month periods ended June 30, 1998, are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1998.  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 year
ended December 31, 1997.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1997 information to conform to
the 1998 presentation.

Limited Partnership Units

The Partnership has issued two classes of Units, "A" Units and "B" Units.  The
two classes of Units are entitled to different rights and priorities as to cash
distributions and partnership allocations.  Both classes of Units represent
economic rights attributable to the limited partnership interests in the
Partnership and entitle the holders thereof ("Unit holders") to participate in
certain allocations and distributions of the Partnership.

NOTE B - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED PARTIES

The Partnership has no employees and is dependent on the General Partner and its
affiliates for the management and administration of all partnership activities.
The Partnership paid property management fees based upon collected gross rental
revenues for property management services as noted below for the six month
periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  Such fees are included in
operating expense in the consolidated statements of operations and are reflected
in the following table. The Limited Partnership Agreement ("Agreement") provides
for reimbursement to the General Partner and its affiliates for certain costs
incurred in connection with the administration of Partnership activities.  These
reimbursements are included in general and administrative and operating expense
and in investment properties.

The following transactions with the General Partner and its affiliates were
incurred during the six months ended June 30:


                                                     1998        1997
                                                       (in thousands)

 Property management fees                            $128        $122
 Reimbursements for services of affiliates             56          54
 Partnership management fees (1)                       31          61

   (1) The Agreement provides for a fee equal to 9% of distributable cash from
   operations (as defined in the Agreement) received by the limited partners be
   paid to the General Partner for executive and administrative management
   services.

In addition, approximately $1,000 and $5,000 in reimbursements for construction
oversight costs were paid to the General Partner or its affiliates during the
six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  These reimbursements
have been included in operating expense.

For the period of January 1, 1997 to August 31, 1997 the Partnership insured its
properties under a master policy through an agency affiliated with the General
Partner with an insurer unaffiliated with the General Partner.  An affiliate of
the 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 master policy. The agent assumed the financial obligations
to the affiliate of the General Partner, which received payment on these
obligations from the agent.  The amount of the Partnership's insurance premiums
accruing to the benefit of the affiliate of the General Partner by virtue of the
agent's obligations was not significant.

Insignia Properties Trust ("IPT") owns all of the outstanding stock of the
General Partner of the Partnership.  IPT is an affiliate of Insignia Financial
Group, Inc. ("Insignia").

During December 1997, Insignia affiliates (the "Purchaser") commenced tender
offers for limited partnership interests in ten real estate limited partnerships
(including the Partnership) in which various Insignia affiliates act as general
partner.  The Purchaser offered to purchase up to 24,000 and 23,000 of the
outstanding "A" and "B" units, respectively, of limited partnership interest in
the Partnership at $50 and $25 per Unit, respectively, net to the seller in
cash, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to
Purchase dated December 23, 1997 (the "Offer to Purchase") and the related
Assignment of Partnership Interest attached as Exhibits (a)(1) and (a)(2),
respectively, to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule 14D-1 originally filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 23, 1997. Because of the
existing and potential future conflicts of interest (described in the
Partnership's Statements on Schedule 14D-9 filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission), neither the Partnership nor the Managing General Partner
expressed any opinion as to the Offer to Purchase and made no recommendation as
to whether unit holders should tender their units in response to the Offer to
Purchase. In addition, because of these conflicts of interest, including as a
result of the Purchaser's affiliation with various Insignia affiliates that
provide property management services to the Partnership's properties, the manner
in which the Purchaser votes its limited partner interests in the Partnership
may not always be consistent with the best interests of the other limited
partners.  During February 1998 the tender offers were completed and an
affiliate of Insignia acquired 21,457 and 13,822 of the outstanding "A" and "B"
units, respectively.

On March 17, 1998, Insignia entered into an agreement to merge its national
residential property management operations, and its controlling interest in IPT,
with Apartment Investment and Management Company ("AIMCO"), a publicly traded
real estate investment trust.  The closing, which is anticipated to happen in
September or October of 1998, is subject to customary conditions, including
government approvals and the approval of Insignia's shareholders.  If the
closing occurs, AIMCO will then control the General Partner of the Partnership.

NOTE C - COMMITMENT

The Partnership is required by the Agreement to maintain working capital
reserves of not less than 5% of Net Invested Capital, as defined in the
Agreement.  In the event expenditures are made from this reserve, operating
revenue shall be allocated to such reserve to the extent necessary to maintain
the foregoing level.  Reserves, including cash and cash equivalents totaling
approximately $1,343,000, exceeded the reserve requirement of approximately
$759,000 at June 30, 1998.

(1)Although occupancy at Carlin Manor increased slightly, it remains subject to
   market conditions of competition from new construction and first time
   homebuyers due to favorable interest rates.

(2)The increase in occupancy at Hunt Club is attributable to incentive programs
   offered during the first half of 1998.


The Partnership realized net income of approximately $199,000 and $105,000 for
the six month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  The
Partnership realized net income of approximately $96,000 and $97,000 for the
three month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  The increase in
net income, for the six month period ended June 30, 1998, was primarily
attributable to an increase in rental income.  The increase in rental income is
attributable to increased rental rates at all of the Partnership's properties.
Additionally, improved occupancy, at two of the Partnership's three properties,
as noted in the table above, has contributed to the increase in rental income.
Slightly offsetting the increase in net income was an increase in depreciation
expense.  The increase in depreciation expense is the result of the addition of
approximately $488,000 of capital improvements and replacements at the
Partnership's properties over the last twelve months.  The slight decline in net
income for the three months ended June 30, 1998, is largely the result of
increased operating expenses offsetting the improved rental income, discussed
previously. Operating expenses increased for the three months ended June 30,
1998 due to increases in property and maintenance expenses.  These three month
increases were the result of normal fluctuations in utility costs and
maintenance expenses.

Included in operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1998 is
approximately $22,000 of parking lot repairs and major landscaping.  Included in
operating expenses for the comparable period in 1997, is approximately $41,000
of major repairs and maintenance comprised primarily of parking lot paving,
major landscaping and window coverings.

As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the 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 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 General Partner will
be able to sustain such a plan.

At June 30, 1998, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately
$1,343,000 as compared to approximately $1,616,000 at June 30, 1997.  The net
increase in cash and cash equivalents for the six months ended June 30, 1998 was
approximately $204,000 compared to a net decrease of approximately $244,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 1997. Net cash provided by operating activities
increased primarily due to an increase in net income as discussed above.  Also
contributing to the increase in cash provided by operations was an increase in
accounts payable.  The increase is the result of the timing of payments.
Partially offsetting the net increase in cash provided by operating activities
was an increase in accounts receivable related to the timing of cash receipts.
Net cash used in investing activities decreased due to a decrease in property
improvements and replacements partially offset by a decrease in net receipts
from restricted escrows. Net cash used in financing activities decreased due to
a decrease in distributions to partners.

The Partnership has no material capital projects scheduled to be performed in
1998, although certain routine capital expenditures and maintenance expenses
have been budgeted.

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 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 of approximately $12,251,000 is amortized over varying
periods and requires one balloon payment in October 2000 and two in November
2003 at which time the properties will be refinanced or sold.  During the six
months ended June 30, 1998, distributions of approximately $341,000 and $3,000
were made to the "A" Unit limited partners and the General Partner,
respectively.  Distributions of approximately $682,000 and $7,000 were made to
the "A" Unit limited partners and the General Partner, respectively, during the
six months ended June 30, 1997.  Future cash distributions will depend on the
levels of net cash generated from operations, refinancings, property sales and
cash reserves.  The General Partner expects to make another distribution during
the third quarter of 1998.

Year 2000

The Partnership is dependent upon the General Partner and Insignia for
management and administrative services.  Insignia has completed an assessment
and will have to modify or replace portions of its software so that its computer
systems will function properly with respect to dates in the year 2000 and
thereafter (the "Year 2000 Issue").  The project is estimated to be completed no
later than December 31, 1998, which is prior to any anticipated impact on its
operating systems.  The General Partner believes that with modifications to
existing software and conversions to new software, the Year 2000 Issue will not
pose significant operational problems for its computer systems. However, if such
modifications and conversions are not made, or are not completed timely, the
Year 2000 Issue could have a material impact on the operations of the
Partnership.

                          PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In March 1998, the Managing General Partner was named in a legal action entitled
ROSALIE NUANES, ET AL. V. INSIGNIA FINANCIAL GROUP, INC., ET AL. in the Superior
Court of the State of California for the County of San Mateo.  The plaintiffs
named as defendants, among others, the Managing General Partner and several of
their affiliated partnerships and corporate entities.  The complaint purports to
assert claims on behalf of a class of limited partners and derivatively on
behalf of a number of limited partnerships (including the Partnership) which are
named as nominal defendants, challenging the acquisition by Insignia and its
affiliates of interests in certain general partner entities, past tender offers
by Insignia as well as a recently announced agreement between Insignia and
Apartment Investment and Management Company.  The complaint seeks monetary
damages and equitable relief, including judicial dissolution of the Partnership.
The Managing General believes the action to be without merit, and intends to
vigorously defend it.  On June 24, 1998, the Managing General Partner filed a
motion seeking dismissal of the action.

In January 1998, a limited partner of the Partnership commenced an arbitration
proceeding against the General Partner claiming that the General Partner had
breached certain contractual and fiduciary duties allegedly owed to the
claimant. The General Partner believes the claim to be without merit and intends
to vigorously defend the claim.

The Partnership is unaware of any other pending or outstanding litigation that
is not of a routine nature.  The General Partner believes that all such other
matters are adequately covered by insurance and will be resolved without a
material adverse effect upon the business, financial condition, results of
operations, or liquidity of the Partnership.
