general  partner of Hunt Club  Associates,  Ltd.;  therefore,  the  consolidated
partnership is controlled and consolidated by the  Partnership.  All significant
interpartnership balances have been eliminated.

Limited Partnership Units

The  Partnership  has  issued  two  classes  of  Units  of  Depositary  Receipts
("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.  The 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 - Transfer of Control

Pursuant  to a series  of  transactions  which  closed  on  October  1, 1998 and
February 26, 1999,  Insignia Financial Group, Inc. and Insignia Properties Trust
merged into Apartment  Investment and Management Company  ("AIMCO"),  a publicly
traded real estate investment trust, with AIMCO being the surviving  corporation
(the "Insignia Merger").  As a result, AIMCO acquired 100% ownership interest in
the General Partner.  The General Partner does not believe that this transaction
has had or will have a material  effect on the  affairs  and  operations  of the
Partnership.

Note C - 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  Agreement  provides for (i) certain  payments to affiliates for
services and (ii)  reimbursement of certain  expenses  incurred by affiliates on
behalf of the Partnership.

<PAGE>

The following  transactions  with the General Partner and/or its affiliates were
incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999:

                                                                  2000      1999
                                                                  (in thousands)
 Property management fees (included in operating expense)         $133      $132
 Reimbursement for services of affiliates (included in
   general and administrative expense)                              57        48
 Partnership management fee (included in general and
   administrative expense)                                          91        --

During the six months  ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,  affiliates  of the General
Partner  were  entitled  to  receive  5% of  gross  receipts  from  all  of  the
Partnership's  properties  as  compensation  for providing  property  management
services.  The Partnership  paid to such affiliates  approximately  $133,000 and
$132,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

An affiliate  of the General  Partner  received  reimbursements  of  accountable
administrative  expenses amounting to approximately  $57,000 and $48,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

The Partnership  Agreement  provides for a fee equal to 9% of distributable cash
from  operations  (as  defined in the  Partnership  Agreement)  received  by the
limited   partners  to  be  paid  to  the  General  Partner  for  executive  and
administrative  management  services.  Fees of  approximately  $91,000 were paid
during  the  six  months  ended  June  30,  2000,   in   association   with  the
distributions. No fees were earned during the six months ended June 30, 1999.

AIMCO and its  affiliates  currently  own  60,253  "A" and  37,662  "B"  limited
partnership  units in the  Partnership  representing  62.58%  and  50.11% of the
outstanding  units.  A number of these  units were  acquired  pursuant to tender
offers  made by  AIMCO  or its  affiliates.  It is  possible  that  AIMCO or its
affiliates will make one or more additional offers to acquire additional limited
partnership  interests in the  Partnership  for cash or in exchange for units in
the operating partnership of AIMCO. Under the Partnership Agreement, unitholders
holding a majority of the Units are  entitled  to take action with  respect to a
variety of  matters.  As a result of its  ownership  of 62.58% and 50.11% of the
outstanding units, AIMCO is in a position to influence all voting decisions with
respect to the Registrant. When voting on matters, AIMCO would in all likelihood
vote the Units it acquired in a manner  favorable to the interest of the General
Partner because of their affiliation with the General Partner.

Note D - Commitment

The  Partnership is required by the  Partnership  Agreement to maintain  working
capital reserves of not less than 5% of Net Invested Capital,  as defined in the
Partnership  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,  consisting of cash and cash equivalents
totaling   approximately   $1,875,000,   exceeded  the  reserve  requirement  of
approximately $534,000 at June 30, 2000.

<PAGE>

Note E - Distribution

During  the  six  months  ended  June  30,  2000,  the  Partnership  paid a cash
distribution  from  operations,  which was  declared and accrued at December 31,
1999,  of  approximately  $427,000 of which  approximately  $423,000  ($4.39 per
limited  partnership  "A" Unit) was paid to the "A" Unit  limited  partners.  In
addition,  the Partnership  declared and paid  distributions  from operations of
approximately $1,018,000 (approximately $1,008,000 to "A" Unit holders or $10.47
per limited  partnership "A" Unit) and of proceeds from the sale of Carlin Manor
Apartments of  approximately  $4,500,000  (approximately  $3,264,000 to "A" Unit
holders or $33.90 per limited partnership "A" Unit and approximately  $1,219,000
to "B" Unit holders or $16.22 per limited  partnership "B" Unit).  There were no
distributions paid or declared during the six months ended June 30, 1999.

Note F - Sale of Investment Property

On  June  12,  2000,  the  Partnership   sold  Carlin  Manor  Apartments  to  an
unaffiliated  third  party for  $8,100,000.  After  payment of closing  costs of
approximately  $95,000,  the net sales proceeds received by the Partnership were
approximately $8,005,000.  The Partnership used a portion of the proceeds to pay
off  the  mortgage   encumbering  the  property  of  $2,500,000.   Approximately
$4,500,000  of the proceeds  were  distributed  to the  partners  during the six
months  ended June 30,  2000.  The  remaining  proceeds  were used to  establish
additional cash reserves for the Partnership. The Partnership's gain on the sale
was approximately  $4,814,000 and an extraordinary loss on early  extinguishment
of debt of  approximately  $105,000  consisting of a prepayment  penalty and the
write-off of unamortized loan costs.

The sales transaction is summarized as follows (amounts in thousands):

    Net sales price, net of selling costs            $ 8,005
    Net real estate (1)                               (3,091)
    Net other liabilities                               (100)
    Gain on sale of real estate                      $ 4,814

(1)   Net of accumulated depreciation of approximately $4,256,000.

Note G - Segment Information

Description  of the types of products  and  services  from which the  reportable
segment  derives its  revenues:  The  Partnership  has one  reportable  segment:
residential properties.  The Partnership's residential property segment consists
of two apartment complexes,  one each in Indiana and Utah. On June 12, 2000, the
Partnership sold its residential property located in Ohio. The Partnership rents
apartment units to tenants for terms that are typically twelve months or less.

Measurement  of segment profit or loss: The  Partnership  evaluates  performance
based on segment profit (loss) before  depreciation.  The accounting policies of
the reportable  segment are the same as those of the Partnership as described in
the  Partnership's  Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31,
1999.

Factors management used to identify the Partnership's  reportable segments:  The
Partnership's  reportable  segment consists of investment  properties that offer
similar  products and services.  Although each of the investment  properties are
managed  separately,  they have been aggregated into one segment as they provide
services with similar types of products and customers.

Segment  information for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000 and
1999, is shown in the tables below (in  thousands).  The "Other" column includes
Partnership administration related items and income and expense not allocated to
the reportable segment.

Note H - Legal Proceedings

In March 1998, several putative unit holders of limited partnership units of the
Partnership  commenced an 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   Partnership,   its  General  Partner  and  several  of  their   affiliated
partnerships  and corporate  entities.  The action  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 of interests in certain general partner
entities by Insignia Financial Group, Inc. and entities which were, at one time,
affiliates of Insignia; past tender offers by the Insignia affiliates to acquire
limited  partnership  units;  the  management  of  partnerships  by the Insignia
affiliates;  and the Insignia  Merger.  The plaintiffs seek monetary damages and
equitable relief, including judicial dissolution of the Partnership. On June 25,
1998,  the General  Partner filed a motion seeking  dismissal of the action.  In
lieu  of  responding  to the  motion,  the  plaintiffs  have  filed  an  amended
complaint.  The General Partner filed  demurrers to the amended  complaint which
were heard February 1999.

Pending the ruling on such  demurrers,  settlement  negotiations  commenced.  On
November 2, 1999,  the parties  executed and filed a Stipulation  of Settlement,
settling claims,  subject to final court approval,  on behalf of the Partnership
and all limited  partners  who owned  units as of November 3, 1999.  Preliminary
approval of the settlement  was obtained on November 3, 1999 from the Court,  at
which time the Court set a final approval  hearing for December 10, 1999.  Prior
to the December 10, 1999 hearing,  the Court received various  objections to the
settlement, including a challenge to the Court's preliminary approval based upon
the alleged lack of authority of prior lead counsel to enter the settlement.  On
December  14,  1999,  the General  Partner  and its  affiliates  terminated  the
proposed settlement.  In February 2000, counsel for some of the named plaintiffs
filed a motion to disqualify plaintiff's lead and liaison counsel who negotiated
the settlement.  On June 27, 2000, the Court entered an order disqualifying them
from the case. The Court will entertain applications for lead counsel which must
be filed by August 4, 2000. The Court has scheduled a hearing on August 21, 2000
to address the issue of appointing  lead counsel.  The General  Partner does not
anticipate  that  costs  associated  with  this  case  will be  material  to the
Partnership's overall operations.

The  Partnership is unaware of any other pending or outstanding  litigation that
is not of a routine nature arising in the ordinary course of business.

ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS

The  matters  discussed  in this Form  10-QSB  contain  certain  forward-looking
statements  and  involve  risks and  uncertainties  (including  changing  market
conditions,   competitive  and  regulatory   matters,   etc.)  detailed  in  the
disclosures  contained  in this  Form  10-QSB  and the  other  filings  with the
Securities and Exchange  Commission made by the  Partnership  from time to time.
The  discussions  of the  Partnership's  business  and  results  of  operations,
including  forward-looking  statements pertaining to such matters, does not take
into  account  the  effects of any  changes to the  Partnership's  business  and
results of operations.  Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from
those  projected in the  forward-looking  statements  as a result of a number of
factors, including those identified herein.

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, 2000 and 1999:

                                                  Average Occupancy

Results of Operations

The  Partnership had net income of  approximately  $4,772,000 for the six months
ended June 30,  2000 as compared to  approximately  $220,000  for the six months
ended June 30, 1999.  For the three  months ended June 30, 2000 the  Partnership
had net  income  of  approximately  $4,629,000  as  compared  to net  income  of
approximately  $81,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999. The increase in
net  income  for both the three and six month  periods  ended  June 30,  2000 is
primarily  attributable  to the  gain  recorded  on the  sale  of  Carlin  Manor
Apartments as discussed below.

Excluding  the  gain  on the  sale of  Carlin  Manor  Apartments  as well as the
extraordinary loss on the early  extinguishment of the debt at Carlin Manor, the
Partnership  had net income of  approximately  $63,000 for the six months  ended
June  30,  2000  compared  to net  income  of  approximately  $220,000  for  the
comparable  period  in 1999.  For the  three  months  ended  June  30,  2000 the
Partnership had a net loss of  approximately  $80,000  compared to net income of
approximately  $81,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999. The decrease in
net income for the three and six month  periods ended June 30, 2000 is due to an
increase in total  expenses  and a decrease in total  revenues.  The decrease in
total  revenues for both the three and six month periods is due to a decrease in
rental revenue  partially offset by an increase in other income.  Rental revenue
decreased  due  primarily  to the  sale of  Carlin  Manor  Apartments  in  2000.
Partially  offsetting  the  impact of the sale of Carlin  Manor  were  increased
occupancy  and increased  average  rental rates at Hunt Club  Apartments.  Other
income increased as a result of increased  interest income due to higher average
cash balances in interest bearing accounts,  increased telephone commissions and
tenant charges at all the Partnership's properties.

Total  expenses  increased  for the three and six month periods due to increased
operating,  depreciation  and general  and  administrative  expenses,  partially
offset by decreased property tax expense. Operating expenses increased primarily
due to a net insurance  proceeds  received in 1999 for storm damage at Hunt Club
and increased  contract  labor costs,  partially  offset by reduced snow removal
costs at Hunt Club Apartments.  Depreciation  expense  increased due to property
improvements and replacements  completed during the past twelve months.  General
and  administrative  expenses  increased  due  to  the  payment  of  partnership
management  fees on  distributions  from operations  during 2000.  There were no
distributions  from  operations  during the six months ended June 30, 1999 so no
such fees were paid during 1999. In addition,  professional fees associated with
the  management  of  the   Partnership   increased.   Included  in  general  and
administrative  expenses  for the three and six months  ended June 30,  2000 and
1999, are management  reimbursements  to the General  Partner  allowed under the
Partnership  Agreement.  In addition,  costs  associated  with the quarterly and
annual  communications with the investors and regulatory agencies and the annual
audit  required by the  Partnership  Agreement are also  included.  Property tax
expense  decreased  due to the sale of Carlin Manor and to a property tax refund
and reduced assessed value received at Hunt Club Apartments.

On  June  12,  2000,  the  Partnership   sold  Carlin  Manor  Apartments  to  an
unaffiliated  third  party for  $8,100,000.  After  payment of closing  costs of
approximately  $95,000,  the net sales proceeds received by the Partnership were
approximately $8,005,000.  The Partnership used a portion of the proceeds to pay
off  the  mortgage   encumbering  the  property  of  $2,500,000.   Approximately
$4,500,000  of the proceeds  were  distributed  to the  partners  during the six
months  ended June 30,  2000.  The  remaining  proceeds  were used to  establish
additional cash reserves for the Partnership. The Partnership's gain on the sale
was  approximately  $4,814,000  and  there  was an  extraordinary  loss on early
extinguishment  of debt of  approximately  $105,000  consisting  of a prepayment
penalty and the write-off of unamortized loan costs.

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 expenses. 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.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2000, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately
$1,875,000 as compared to  approximately  $1,819,000 at June 30, 1999.  Cash and
cash equivalents decreased  approximately $405,000 for the six months ended June
30,  2000,  from  the  Partnership's  year  ended  December  31,  1999,  due  to
approximately  $8,548,000  of  cash  used in  financing  activities,  which  was
partially  offset by  approximately  $7,983,000  of cash  provided by  investing
activities and approximately  $160,000 of cash provided by operating activities.
Cash used in  financing  activities  consisted  primarily  of  distributions  to
partners and, to a lesser extent, the payoff of the mortgage  encumbering Carlin
Manor  Apartments,  prepayment  penalties paid and payments of principal made on
the  mortgage  encumbering  Hunt Club  Apartments.  Cash  provided by  investing
activities consisted of proceeds from the sale of Carlin Manor Apartments and of
net withdrawals from restricted  escrows maintained by the mortgage lender which
were partially offset by property improvements and replacements. The Partnership
invests its working capital reserves in money market accounts.

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 and to comply with Federal,
state, and local legal and regulatory requirements. Capital improvements planned
for each of the Registrant's properties are detailed below.

Carlin Manor

During the six months ended June 30, 2000 the Partnership expended approximately
$63,000 for floor covering,  major  landscaping,  and appliance  replacements at
Carlin Manor. This property was sold on June 12, 2000.

Hunt Club

Approximately  $193,000 was budgeted for capital  improvements for the year 2000
at Hunt Club Apartments  consisting primarily of structural  upgrades,  fencing,
carpet and vinyl replacement,  and appliance replacement.  During the six months
ended June 30, 2000, the Partnership completed  approximately $48,000 of capital
improvements  at Hunt Club  Apartments,  consisting  primarily of floor covering
replacements,   gutter  replacements,   exterior  painting  and  other  building
improvements.  These  improvements  were  funded  from  operating  cash flow and
replacement reserves.

Shadow Brook

Approximately  $186,000 was budgeted for capital  improvements for the year 2000
at Shadow Brook Apartments consisting primarily of carpet and vinyl replacement,
roof replacement,  and lighting  improvements.  During the six months ended June
30,  2000,  the  Partnership   completed   approximately   $101,000  of  capital
improvements  at  Shadow  Brook   Apartments,   consisting   primarily  of  roof
replacement,  carpet and vinyl  replacement,  and lighting  improvements.  These
improvements were funded from replacement reserves.

The additional  capital  expenditures for 2000 at the  Partnership's  properties
will  be  made  only  to the  extent  of  cash  available  from  operations  and
Partnership  reserves. To the extent that such budgeted capital improvements are
completed,  the Partnership's  distributable cash flow, if any, may be adversely
affected at least in the short term.

The  Partnership's  assets  are  currently  thought  to be  sufficient  for  any
near-term needs  (exclusive of capital  improvements)  of the  Partnership.  The
mortgage  indebtedness  of  approximately  $9,596,000 is amortized  over varying
periods and  requires  one balloon  payment in October  2000 and one in November
2003.  The General  Partner will attempt to refinance such  indebtedness  and/or
sell the properties  prior to such maturity dates.  If the properties  cannot be
refinanced or sold for a sufficient  amount,  the  Partnership  will risk losing
such properties through foreclosure.

During  the  six  months  ended  June  30,  2000,  the  Partnership  paid a cash
distribution  from  operations,  which was  declared and accrued at December 31,
1999,  of  approximately  $427,000 of which  approximately  $423,000  ($4.39 per
limited  partnership  "A" Unit) was paid to the "A" Unit  limited  partners.  In
addition,  the Partnership  declared and paid  distributions  from operations of
approximately $1,018,000 (approximately $1,008,000 to "A" Unit holders or $10.47
per limited  partnership "A" Unit) and of proceeds from the sale of Carlin Manor
Apartments of  approximately  $4,500,000  (approximately  $3,264,000 to "A" Unit
holders or $33.90 per limited partnership "A" Unit and approximately  $1,219,000
to "B" Unit holders or $16.22 per limited  partnership "B" Unit).  There were no
distributions  paid or declared  during the six months ended June 30, 1999.  The
Partnership's  distribution  policy is reviewed on a semi-annual  basis.  Future
cash  distributions  will  depend  on the  levels  of net  cash  generated  from
operations,   the  availability  of  cash  reserves,  and  the  timing  of  debt
maturities,  refinancings,  and/or  property  sales.  There can be no assurance,
however,  that the Partnership  will generate  sufficient  funds from operations
after  required  capital  expenditures  to permit further  distributions  to its
partners during the remainder of 2000 or subsequent periods.

                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In March 1998, several putative unit holders of limited partnership units of the
Partnership  commenced an 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   Partnership,   its  General  Partner  and  several  of  their   affiliated
partnerships  and corporate  entities.  The action  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 of interests in certain general partner
entities by Insignia Financial Group, Inc. and entities which were, at one time,
affiliates of Insignia; past tender offers by the Insignia affiliates to acquire
limited  partnership  units;  the  management  of  partnerships  by the Insignia
affiliates;  and the Insignia  Merger.  The plaintiffs seek monetary damages and
equitable relief, including judicial dissolution of the Partnership. On June 25,
1998,  the General  Partner filed a motion seeking  dismissal of the action.  In
lieu  of  responding  to the  motion,  the  plaintiffs  have  filed  an  amended
complaint.  The General Partner filed  demurrers to the amended  complaint which
were heard February 1999.

Pending the ruling on such  demurrers,  settlement  negotiations  commenced.  On
November 2, 1999,  the parties  executed and filed a Stipulation  of Settlement,
settling claims,  subject to final court approval,  on behalf of the Partnership
and all limited  partners  who owned  units as of November 3, 1999.  Preliminary
approval of the settlement  was obtained on November 3, 1999 from the Court,  at
which time the Court set a final approval  hearing for December 10, 1999.  Prior
to the December 10, 1999 hearing,  the Court received various  objections to the
settlement, including a challenge to the Court's preliminary approval based upon
the alleged lack of authority of prior lead counsel to enter the settlement.  On
December  14,  1999,  the General  Partner  and its  affiliates  terminated  the
proposed settlement.  In February 2000, counsel for some of the named plaintiffs
filed a motion to disqualify plaintiff's lead and liaison counsel who negotiated
the settlement.  On June 27, 2000, the Court entered an order disqualifying them
from the case. The Court will entertain applications for lead counsel which must
be filed by August 4, 2000. The Court has scheduled a hearing on August 21, 2000
to address the issue of appointing  lead counsel.  The General  Partner does not
anticipate  that  costs  associated  with  this  case  will be  material  to the
Partnership's overall operations.
