     commenced  operations  on  February  6,  1987  when  minimum
     subscriptions    of   2,000   Limited   Partnership    Units
     ($2,000,000)  were  accepted.  The  offering  terminated  on
     November  6,  1987  when the maximum subscription  limit  of
     15,000 Limited Partnership Units ($15,000,000) was reached.

     Under  the  terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement,  the
     Limited  Partners and General Partners contributed funds  of
     $15,000,000  and  $1,000, respectively.  During  operations,
     any  Net  Cash Flow, as defined, which the General  Partners
     determine  to  distribute will be  distributed  90%  to  the
     Limited  Partners and 10% to the General Partners; provided,
     however,  that  such distributions to the  General  Partners
     will be subordinated to the Limited Partners first receiving
     an annual, noncumulative distribution of Net Cash Flow equal
     to  10%  of their Adjusted Capital Contribution, as defined,
     and,  provided  further, that in no event will  the  General
     Partners  receive  less than 1% of such Net  Cash  Flow  per
     annum.   Distributions to Limited Partners will be made  pro
     rata by Units.

(2)  Organization - (Continued)

     Any  Net  Proceeds  of Sale, as defined, from  the  sale  or
     financing of properties which the General Partners determine
     to distribute will, after provisions for debts and reserves,
     be  paid  in  the following manner:  (i) first, 99%  to  the
     Limited  Partners and 1% to the General Partners  until  the
     Limited  Partners  receive an amount  equal  to:  (a)  their
     Adjusted Capital Contribution plus (b) an amount equal to 6%
     of their Adjusted Capital Contribution per annum, cumulative
     but not compounded, to the extent not previously distributed
     from  Net  Cash Flow; (ii) next, 99% to the Limited Partners
     and  1%  to the General Partners until the Limited  Partners
     receive  an  amount equal to 14% of their  Adjusted  Capital
     Contribution  per annum, cumulative but not  compounded,  to
     the  extent not previously distributed; (iii) next,  to  the
     General  Partners  until  cumulative  distributions  to  the
     General  Partners under Items (ii) and (iii)  equal  15%  of
     cumulative  distributions to all Partners under  Items  (ii)
     and (iii).  Any remaining balance will be distributed 85% to
     the  Limited  Partners  and  15% to  the  General  Partners.
     Distributions to the Limited Partners will be made pro  rata
     by Units.

     For  tax  purposes,  profits  from  operations,  other  than
     profits  attributable  to  the  sale,  exchange,  financing,
     refinancing  or  other  disposition  of  property,  will  be
     allocated  first  in the same ratio in  which,  and  to  the
     extent,  Net  Cash Flow is distributed to the  Partners  for
     such year.  Any additional profits will be allocated 90%  to
     the  Limited  Partners and 10% to the General Partners.   In
     the  event  no Net Cash Flow is distributed to  the  Limited
     Partners,  90%  of each item of income, gain or  credit  for
     each  respective  year  shall be allocated  to  the  Limited
     Partners,  and 10% of each such item shall be  allocated  to
     the  General Partners.  Net losses from operations  will  be
     allocated 98% to the Limited Partners and 2% to the  General
     Partners.

     For  tax purposes, profits arising from the sale, financing,
     or  other  disposition  of property  will  be  allocated  in
     accordance  with the Partnership Agreement as  follows:  (i)
     first,  to  those  Partners with deficit balances  in  their
     capital  accounts  in an amount equal to  the  sum  of  such
     deficit  balances; (ii) second, 99% to the Limited  Partners
     and  1%  to the General Partners until the aggregate balance
     in  the Limited Partners' capital accounts equals the sum of
     the Limited Partners' Adjusted Capital Contributions plus an
     amount  equal to 14% of their Adjusted Capital Contributions
     per  annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not
     previously  allocated; (iii) third, to the General  Partners
     until  cumulative allocations to the General Partners  equal
     15%  of cumulative allocations.  Any remaining balance  will
     be  allocated  85% to the Limited Partners and  15%  to  the
     General  Partners.   Losses will be  allocated  98%  to  the
     Limited Partners and 2% to the General Partners.

     The  General Partners are not required to currently  fund  a
     deficit capital balance. Upon liquidation of the Partnership
     or  withdrawal  by  a General Partner, the General  Partners
     will  contribute to the Partnership an amount equal  to  the
     lesser of the deficit balances in their capital accounts  or
     1%  of total Limited Partners' and General Partners' capital
     contributions.

(3)  Investments in Real Estate -

     In  December, 1998, Gulf Coast Restaurants, Inc. (GCR),  the
     lessee  of  the Applebee's restaurant in Slidell, Louisiana,
     filed  for reorganization.  GCR continued to make the  lease
     payments  to  the Partnership under the supervision  of  the
     bankruptcy court.  A reorganization plan was accepted by the
     Bankruptcy Court, which provides for the Lease to be assumed
     by  GCR  and assigned to another operator who will  purchase
     the Partnership's share of the property.  The reorganization
     plan  also provides for the Partnership to collect all rents
     outstanding  under the terms of the Lease.  On  October  25,
     2000,  the  sale closed with the Partnership  receiving  net
     sale proceeds of approximately $960,000, which resulted in a
     net gain of approximately $330,000.

     In  January, 2000, Texas Sports City Cafe, Ltd. (Texas), the
     lessee  of  the  Sports City Cafe, notified the  Partnership
     that they were discontinuing the restaurant operations.  The
     Partnership  began  negotiating to  sell  the  property  for
     $900,000  to  an  unrelated third  party,  who  assumed  the
     restaurant  operations from Texas.  The Partnership's  share
     of  the  gross  sale proceeds was $315,000.  In  the  fourth
     quarter  of  1999,  a charge to operations  of  $70,000  was
     recognized  for  real  estate  impairment,  which  was   the
     difference  between the book value at December 31,  1999  of
     $381,254 and the estimated net proceeds from the sale.   The
     charge  was recorded against the cost of the building.   The
     land  and  building were classified as Real Estate Held  for
     Sale.

     On  July  28,  2000,  the sale closed with  the  Partnership
     receiving net sale proceeds of $311,882, which resulted in a
     net gain of $628.  At the time of sale, the cost and related
     accumulated   depreciation  was   $450,109   and   $138,855,
     respectively.

     In February, 1999, the Partnership entered into an agreement
     to sell the Fuddruckers restaurant in St. Louis, Missouri to
     an unrelated third party.  On June 16, 1999, the sale closed
     with the Partnership receiving net sale proceeds of $763,611
     which  resulted in a net gain of $178,334.  At the  time  of
     sale,  the  cost  and related accumulated  depreciation  was
     $761,053 and $175,776, respectively.

     In March, 1999, the Partnership entered into an agreement to
     sell the Waco property to an unrelated third party.  On  May
     10, 1999, the sale closed with the Partnership receiving net
     sale  proceeds of $158,131 which resulted in a net  gain  of
     $5,441.    At  the  time  of  sale,  the  cost  and  related
     accumulated   depreciation  was   $353,285   and   $200,595,
     respectively.

     In November, 1999, the Partnership entered into an agreement
     to  sell the Caribou Coffee store in Atlanta, Georgia to  an
     unrelated third party.  On February 2, 2000, the sale closed
     with   the  Partnership  receiving  net  sale  proceeds   of
     $1,468,504,  which resulted in a net gain of  $273,747.   At
     the   time   of  sale,  the  cost  and  related  accumulated
     depreciation was $1,247,571 and $52,814, respectively.

(3)  Investments in Real Estate - (Continued)

     In  August,  2000, Renaissant Development Corp.  (RDC),  the
     lessee of the Applebee's restaurant in Victoria, Texas filed
     for  reorganization.  RDC has closed the restaurant and  the
     Partnership anticipates that the Lease will be rejected  and
     that  possession  of the property will be  returned  to  the
     Partnership.  At September 30, 2000, the Partnership has not
     collected $27,200 in rent from RDC, of which $8,774 has  not
     been  accrued  due  to the uncertainty of  collection.   The
     amount  of  $18,426, which has been accrued, represents  the
     rent  from  the  date  which  RDC filed  for  reorganization
     through September 30, 2000.

     During  the  first  nine  months  of  2000  and  1999,   the
     Partnership  distributed $442,414 and $757,576 of  net  sale
     proceeds to the Limited Partners and General Partners, which
     represented  a  return of capital of $32.52 and  $55.12  per
     Limited  Partnership Unit, respectively.  The  remainder  of
     the sale proceeds will be distributed in future periods.

(4)  Payable to AEI Fund Management -

     AEI  Fund  Management, Inc. performs the administrative  and
     operating functions for the Partnership.  The payable to AEI
     Fund   Management  represents  the  balance  due  for  those
     services.    This  balance  is  non-interest   bearing   and
     unsecured  and  is  to  be  paid in  the  normal  course  of
     business.

(5)  Deferred Income -

     In  June,  1994, Fuddruckers, Inc., the restaurant concept's
     franchisor,  acquired  the  operations  of  the  Fuddruckers
     restaurants in St. Louis, Missouri and Omaha, Nebraska,  and
     assumed the lease obligations from the original lessee.   As
     part of the agreement, the Partnership amended the Leases to
     reduce  the  base  rent  from the  current  annual  rent  of
     $109,033  to $92,164 for the St. Louis property and $167,699
     to  $145,081 for the Omaha property.  The Partnership  could
     receive  additional  rent in the  future  if  10%  of  gross
     receipts  from  the  properties exceed the  base  rent.   In
     consideration  for the lease assumption and  amendment,  the
     Partnership  received lump sum payments  from  the  original
     lessee  of $140,184 for the St. Louis property and  $159,539
     for  the  Omaha  property.  The lump sum  payments  will  be
     recognized  as income over the remainder of the Lease  terms
     which  expire  January  31,  2008  and  November  30,  2007,
     respectively, using the straight line method.

     As of March 31, 1999, the Partnership had recognized $49,020
     of  the  payment for the St. Louis property as  income.   On
     June  16,  1999, the Partnership sold the St. Louis property
     and  the  Lease Agreement was terminated.  As a result,  the
     Partnership  recognized the balance of the  deferred  income
     related to that property of $91,164 in the second quarter of
     1999.

     As  of  September  30,  2000  and  December  31,  1999,  the
     Partnership  had  recognized  $74,325  and  $65,406  of  the
     payment  for  the Omaha property as income.   The  remaining
     deferred  income  of  $11,103 was prepaid  rent  related  to
     certain other Partnership properties.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Results of Operations

       For the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, the
Partnership  recognized rental income of $595,070  and  $841,627,
respectively.   During the same periods, the  Partnership  earned
investment income of $66,545 and $8,025, respectively.  In  1999,
rental income was higher due to deferred income recognized  as  a
result  of  the sale of the Fuddruckers restaurant in St.  Louis,
Missouri, discussed below.  In addition, in 2000, regular  rental
income  decreased  as  a result of the property  sales  discussed
below.   The  decrease in rental income was partially  offset  by
additional investment income earned on the net proceeds from  the
property sales.

       In December, 1998, Gulf Coast Restaurants, Inc. (GCR), the
lessee of the Applebee's restaurant in Slidell, Louisiana,  filed
for reorganization.  GCR continued to make the lease payments  to
the Partnership under the supervision of the bankruptcy court.  A
reorganization plan was accepted by the Bankruptcy  Court,  which
provides  for  the  Lease to be assumed by GCR  and  assigned  to
another operator who will purchase the Partnership's share of the
property.   The  reorganization  plan  also  provides   for   the
Partnership to collect all rents outstanding under the  terms  of
the  Lease.   On  October  25, 2000, the  sale  closed  with  the
Partnership   receiving  net  sale  proceeds   of   approximately
$960,000, which resulted in a net gain of approximately $330,000.

        In  January, 2000, Texas Sports City Cafe, Ltd.  (Texas),
the lessee of the Sports City Cafe, notified the Partnership that
they   were   discontinuing  the  restaurant   operations.    The
Partnership  began negotiating to sell the property for  $900,000
to   an   unrelated  third  party,  who  assumed  the  restaurant
operations from Texas.  The Partnership's share of the gross sale
proceeds  was $315,000.  In the fourth quarter of 1999, a  charge
to   operations  of  $70,000  was  recognized  for  real   estate
impairment,  which was the difference between the book  value  at
December 31, 1999 of $381,254 and the estimated net proceeds from
the  sale.   The  charge was recorded against  the  cost  of  the
building.   The land and building were classified as Real  Estate
Held for Sale.

        On  July  28, 2000, the sale closed with the  Partnership
receiving net sale proceeds of $311,882, which resulted in a  net
gain  of  $628.   At  the  time of sale,  the  cost  and  related
accumulated depreciation was $450,109 and $138,855, respectively.

        In  August, 2000, Renaissant Development Corp. (RDC), the
lessee of the Applebee's restaurant in Victoria, Texas filed  for
reorganization.    RDC  has  closed  the   restaurant   and   the
Partnership anticipates that the Lease will be rejected and  that
possession  of the property will be returned to the  Partnership.
At  September 30, 2000, the Partnership has not collected $27,200
in rent from RDC, of which $8,774 has not been accrued due to the
uncertainty of collection.  The amount of $18,426, which has been
accrued,  represents the rent from the date which RDC  filed  for
reorganization through September 30, 2000.

        During the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999,
the  Partnership  paid  Partnership  administration  expenses  to
affiliated parties of $156,264 and $140,929, respectively.  These
administration  expenses  include  costs  associated   with   the
management of the properties, processing distributions, reporting
requirements and correspondence to the Limited Partners.   During
the   same   periods,   the  Partnership   incurred   Partnership
administration  and property management expenses  from  unrelated
parties  of  $59,919 and $24,524, respectively.   These  expenses
represent  direct payments to third parties for legal and  filing
fees,  direct administrative costs, outside audit and  accounting
costs, taxes, insurance and other property costs.


ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS  (Continued)

        As  of  September 30, 2000, the Partnership's  annualized
cash  distribution  rate  was 9% based on  the  Adjusted  Capital
Contribution.   Distributions of Net Cash  Flow  to  the  General
Partners were subordinated to the Limited Partners as required in
the Partnership Agreement.  As a result, 99% of distributions and
income  were allocated to Limited Partners and 1% to the  General
Partners.

        Inflation  has  had  a  minimal  effect  on  income  from
operations.   It is expected that increases in sales  volumes  of
the  tenants, due to inflation and real sales growth, will result
in  an  increase  in rental income over the term of  the  leases.
Inflation  also  may  cause  the  Partnership's  real  estate  to
appreciate in value.  However, inflation and changing prices  may
also  have  an  adverse impact on the operating  margins  of  the
properties' tenants which could impair their ability to pay  rent
and subsequently reduce the Partnership's Net Cash Flow available
for distributions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        During  the  nine months ended September  30,  2000,  the
Partnership's  cash  balances increased $1,408,024  mainly  as  a
result  of  cash generated from the sale of property.   Net  cash
provided by operating activities decreased from $578,082 in  1999
to  $449,666 in 2000 as a result of a decrease in income  and  an
increase in expenses in 2000, which was partially offset  by  net
timing differences in the collection of payments from the lessees
and the payment of expenses.

        In  the  first  nine months of 2000 and  1999,  net  cash
provided  by  investing activities was $1,780,386  and  $921,742,
respectively, which represented cash flow generated from the sale
of real estate.

        In  February,  1999,  the  Partnership  entered  into  an
agreement  to  sell  the  Fuddruckers restaurant  in  St.  Louis,
Missouri to an unrelated third party.  On June 16, 1999, the sale
closed  with  the  Partnership receiving  net  sale  proceeds  of
$763,611  which resulted in a net gain of $178,334.  At the  time
of  sale,  the  cost  and  related accumulated  depreciation  was
$761,053 and $175,776, respectively.

       In June, 1994, the Partnership received a lump sum payment
of $140,184 as compensation for certain modifications made to the
St. Louis Fuddruckers Lease.  The lump sum payment was recognized
as income over the Lease term using the straight line method.  As
a  result of the sale, the Lease Agreement was terminated and the
Partnership  recognized  the balance of the  deferred  income  of
$91,164 in the second quarter of 1999.

        In March, 1999, the Partnership entered into an agreement
to  sell the Waco property to an unrelated third party.   On  May
10, 1999, the sale closed with the Partnership receiving net sale
proceeds of $158,131 which resulted in a net gain of $5,441.   At
the  time  of sale, the cost and related accumulated depreciation
was $353,285 and $200,595, respectively.

        In  November,  1999,  the  Partnership  entered  into  an
agreement to sell the Caribou Coffee store in Atlanta, Georgia to
an  unrelated third party.  On February 2, 2000, the sale  closed
with  the  Partnership receiving net sale proceeds of $1,468,504,
which  resulted in a net gain of $273,747.  At the time of  sale,
the  cost and related accumulated depreciation was $1,247,571 and
$52,814, respectively.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS  (Continued)

        During  the  first  nine months of  2000  and  1999,  the
Partnership  distributed  $442,414  and  $757,576  of  net   sale
proceeds  to  the  Limited Partners and General  Partners,  which
represented a return of capital of $32.52 and $55.12 per  Limited
Partnership  Unit,  respectively.   The  remainder  of  the  sale
proceeds will be distributed in future periods.

       The Partnership's primary use of cash flow is distribution
and  redemption  payments to Partners.  The Partnership  declares
its  regular  quarterly  distributions before  the  end  of  each
quarter and pays the distribution in the first week after the end
of  each quarter.  The Partnership attempts to maintain a  stable
distribution  rate from quarter to quarter.  Redemption  payments
are  paid  to  redeeming Partners in the fourth quarter  of  each
year.  In the first nine months of 2000, distributions were lower
when  compared  to  the same period in 1999  because  more  sales
proceeds were distributed in 1999.

        The  Partnership may acquire Units from Limited  Partners
who  have tendered their Units to the Partnership. Such Units may
be  acquired at a discount.  The Partnership is not obligated  to
purchase  in  any  year  more than 5%  of  the  number  of  Units
outstanding at the beginning of the year.  In no event shall  the
Partnership  be  obligated to purchase  Units  if,  in  the  sole
discretion  of the Managing General Partner, such purchase  would
impair the capital or operation of the Partnership.

        On  October 1, 2000, sixteen Limited Partners redeemed  a
total  of  97.5 Partnership Units for $37,740 in accordance  with
the  Partnership Agreement.  The Partnership acquired these Units
using Net Cash Flow from operations.  In prior years, a total  of
149  Limited  Partners  redeemed 1,531.85 Partnership  Units  for
$1,051,053.   The  redemptions  increase  the  remaining  Limited
Partners' ownership interest in the Partnership.

       The continuing rent payments from the properties, together
with  cash  generated from property sales, should be adequate  to
fund   continuing   distributions  and  meet  other   Partnership
obligations on both a short-term and long-term basis.

Cautionary Statement for Purposes of the "Safe Harbor" Provisions
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

         The   foregoing  Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis
contains various "forward looking  statements" within the meaning
of   federal   securities   laws  which  represent   management's
expectations  or  beliefs  concerning  future  events,  including
statements  regarding anticipated application of  cash,  expected
returns  from rental income, growth in revenue, taxation  levels,
the  sufficiency  of  cash to meet operating expenses,  rates  of
distribution,  and  other  matters.   These,  and  other  forward
looking statements made by the Partnership, must be evaluated  in
the   context  of  a  number  of  factors  that  may  affect  the
Partnership's  financial  condition and  results  of  operations,
including the following:

         Market  and  economic conditions which affect the  value
         of  the  properties the Partnership owns and  the  cash
         from rental income such properties generate;

         the  federal  income tax consequences of rental  income,
         deductions,  gain  on  sales and other  items  and  the
         affects of these consequences for investors;

         resolution  by  the General Partners of  conflicts  with
         which they may be confronted;

         the   success  of  the  General  Partners  of   locating
         properties with favorable risk return characteristics;

         the effect of tenant defaults; and

         the  condition of the industries in which the tenants of
         properties owned by the Partnership operate.
