                   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 month
period ended March 31, 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 three month
periods ended March 31, 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 General Partner and its affiliates received
reimbursements and fees as reflected in the following table:


                                                     For the Three Months Ended

                                                        1998             1997
                                                            (in thousands)

 Property management fees                              $ 64              $ 61
 Reimbursements for services of affiliates (1)           31                30
 Partnership management fees (2)                         31                61


   (1) Included in "reimbursements for services of affiliates" for 1997, is
   approximately $2,000 in reimbursements for construction oversight costs.

   (2) 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.

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
the third quarter 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 $1,123,000, exceeded the reserve requirement of approximately
$759,000 at March 31, 1998.


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 each
of the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997:


                                                     Average
                                                    Occupancy
Property                                        1998         1997

Carlin Manor Apartments
   Columbus, Ohio   (1)                          92%          90%

Hunt Club Apartments
   Indianapolis, Indiana   (2)                   97%          93%

Shadow Brook Apartments
   West Valley City, Utah    (3)                 95%          97%


(1)Although occupancy at Carlin Manor increased slightly, it remains relatively
   low due 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 an increase in
   lease renewal and fewer vacancies as a result of incentives programs offered
   during the first quarter of 1998.


(3)The decrease in occupancy at Shadow Brook is also attributable to market
   conditions of competition and home purchases.

The Partnership's net income for the three month period ended March 31, 1998,
was approximately $103,000 compared to net income of approximately $8,000 for
the same period of 1997.  The increase in net income is primarily due to an
increase in rental income and a decrease in operating expenses. Rental income
increased at all of the properties due to an increase in rental rates. Also,
occupancy increased at Hunt Club and Carlin Manor, but decreased slightly at
Shadow Brook as discussed above.  Operating expenses decreased due to a decrease
in salaries as a result of net staff reductions at Carlin Manor.  Also,
utilities decreased at the property due to milder winter conditions in the
Columbus, OH area.  Further operating expense reductions were the result of
nonrecurring parking lot repairs and interior improvements at Hunt Club in the
first quarter of 1997.  Partially offsetting the increase in net income was a
decrease in other income as a result of slightly lower investment balances held
in the first quarter of 1998 versus the comparable period in 1997.

Included in operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1998 is
approximately $3,000 of parking lot repairs and major landscaping.  Included in
operating expenses for the comparable period in 1997, is approximately $27,000
of parking lot repairs, window coverings, computers and swimming pool repairs.

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 March 31, 1998, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $1,123,000 as compared to approximately $1,531,000 at March 31,
1997.  The net decrease in cash and cash equivalents for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 was approximately $16,000 compared to a decrease of approximately
$329,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997. Net cash provided by
operating activities decreased slightly despite an increase in net income due to
an increase in receivables and deposits.  Partially offsetting the net decrease
in cash provided by operating activities was a decrease in accounts payable
related to the timing of payments.  Net cash provided by investing activities
decreased due to a decrease in net receipts from restricted escrows partially
offset by a decrease in property improvements and replacements. 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 $12,268,000 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 three
months ended March 31 1998, a distribution of approximately $340,000 was made to
the "A" Unit limited partners, and a distribution of approximately $3,000 was
made to the General Partner.  A distribution of approximately $682,000 was made
to the "A" Unit limited partners and a  distribution of approximately $7,000
was made to the General Partner during the three months ended March 31, 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 a further 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
not 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 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
affiliates to acquire limited partnership units, the management of partnerships
by Insignia affiliates 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
partnerships named in the action.  The Managing General Partner was only
recently served with the complaint which it believes to be without merit, and
intends to vigorously defend 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.
