                    PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 1.        Financial Statements.

             Consolidated Balance Sheets - September 30, 1997
             (unaudited) and December 31, 1996
             Consolidated Statements of Operations - Three Months and
             Nine Months Ended September 30 1997 and 1996 (unaudited)

             September 30, 1997 and 1996 (unaudited)
             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements  (unaudited)

Item 2.        Management's Discussion and Analysis of
               Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

               (1)  Liquidity

                     As  of  September 30, 1997, Registrant had  total
unrestricted cash of $578,862. Such funds are expected to be  used  to
pay  liabilities  of Registrant and to fund any cash deficits  of  the
properties.   The Registrant expects that the $578,862 plus  the  cash
generated from operations at each property will be sufficient to  fund
the operating expenses of the properties.  The Registrant is not aware
of any additional sources of liquidity.

                      As   of  September  30,  1997,  Registrant   had
restricted  cash  of $74,499 consisting primarily  of  funds  held  as
security  deposits,  replacement reserves and escrows  for  taxes  and
insurance.  As a consequence of the restrictions as to use, Registrant
does not deem these funds to be a source of liquidity.

               (2)  Capital Resources

                     Due  to the relatively recent rehabilitations  of
the   properties,  any  capital  expenditures  needed  are   generally
replacement  items  and  are funded out of  cash  from  operations  or
replacement  reserves, if any.  The Registrant is  not  aware  of  any
factors which would cause historical capital expenditure levels not to
be  indicative of capital requirements in the future and  accordingly,
does  not  believe that it will have to commit material  resources  to
capital investment for the foreseeable future.

               (3)  Results of Operations

                     During  the  third  quarter of  1997,  Registrant
recognized  income  of  $37,851 ($4.52 per limited  partnership  unit)
compared to a loss of $80,322 ($9.60 per limited partnership unit) for
the  same  period  in 1996.  For the first nine months  of  1997,  the
Registrant recognized income of $41,831 ($5.00 per limited partnership
unit)  compared  to  a loss of $83,536 ($9.98 per limited  partnership
unit) for the same period in 1996.

                     Rental income decreased $121 from $50,085 in  the
third  quarter  of  1996 to $49,964 in the same  period  in  1997  and
decreased $35,082 from $169,430 for the first nine months of  1996  to
$134,348  in  the same period in 1997.  The decrease in rental  income
for  the third quarter and the first nine months of 1997 from the same
periods in 1996 is mainly the result of a decrease in rental income at
Henderson due to the sale of units, partially offset by an increase at
the Brass Works due to an increase in the average rental rates.

                     Interest income increased $7,070 from $53,766  in
the  third quarter of 1996 to $60,836 in the same period in  1997  and
increased $39,324 from $142,536 for the first nine months of  1996  to
$181,860 in the same period in 1997.  The increase for both the  third
quarter  and  the first nine months of 1997 from the same  periods  in
1996  is  the  result  of  an  increase in interest  earned  on  notes
receivable.

                    Expense for rental operations decreased by $53,113
from  $76,608  in  the third quarter of 1996 to $23,495  in  the  same
period  in 1997 and decreased by $147,169 from $273,184 for the  first
nine  months  of  1996 to $126,015 in the same period  in  1997.   The
decrease for both the third quarter and the first nine months of  1997
from  the  same  periods in 1996 is the result  of  the  result  of  a
decrease  at  Henderson  due to the sale  of  units  combined  with  a
decrease  in maintenance expense at Brass Works due to lower  turnover
of apartment units and a slight overall decrease in operating expenses
at Locke Mill.

                     General  and  administrative  expenses  decreased
$20,000 from $101,000 for the first nine months of 1996 to $81,000  in
the  same  period in 1997.  The decrease is due to fees  paid  in  the
first  quarter  of 1996 to reimburse the General Partner  for  certain
services rendered.

                     Depreciation  and amortization expense  decreased
$7,655  from  $30,109 in the third quarter of 1996 to $22,454  in  the
same  period in 1997 and decreased $34,252 from $101,614 for the first
nine  months 1996 to $67,362 in the same period in 1997.  The decrease
for  the third quarter and the first nine months of 1997 from the same
periods  in  1996  is  due  to  the sale of  units  at  the  Henderson
Apartments  resulting  in  a lower balance on  which  depreciation  is
calculated.

                     Income  recognized  during  the  quarter  at  the
Registrant's three properties amounted to $69,000, compared to a  loss
of approximately $36,000 for the same period in 1996.  Included in the
third quarter of 1996 is a loss of $50,000 related to the sale of  the
units  at  the  Henderson.  For the first nine  months  of  1997,  the
Registrant  recognized  income of $137,000 compared  to  approximately
$23,000 for the same period in 1996.  Included in income in the  first
nine  months of 1996 is a gain of $80,000 related to the sale  of  the
units at the Henderson.

                      In   the   third  quarter  of  1997,  Registrant
recognized income of $68,000 at The Henderson Apartments, compared  to
a  loss  of $27,000 in the third quarter of 1996, including $8,000  of
depreciation expense.  Included in the third quarter of 1996 is a loss
of  $50,000 related to the sale of Units.  Overall, exclusive  of  the
loss  resulting  from  the  sale of Units,  the  property  would  have
recognized  income of $23,000 in the third quarter of 1996.   For  the
first nine months of 1997, Registrant recognized income of $138,000 at
the  Henderson Apartments, compared to income of $45,000 for the  same
period  of 1996, including $34,000 of depreciation expense.   Included
in  income  for  the first nine months of 1996 is a  gain  of  $80,000
related  to  the  sale  of  Units.  Overall,  exclusive  of  the  gain
resulting from the sale of Units, the property would have recognized a
loss  of  $35,000 for the first nine months of 1996.  The increase  in
income  is  a  result of an increase in interest earned on  the  notes
receivable and a decrease in operating expenses and marketing expenses
partially  offset by a decrease in rental income due to the fact  that
all of the apartments units were sold in 1996.

                     In the third quarter of 1997, Registrant incurred
a loss of $3,000 at the Brass Works, including $12,000 of depreciation
expense,   compared  to  a  loss  of  $6,000  including   $12,000   of
depreciation  expense in the first quarter of 1996.  The  decrease  in
the loss for the third quarter of 1997 from the same period in 1996 is
due  to  a decrease in maintenance expense due to a lower turnover  of
apartment units.

                     For  the  first  nine months of 1997,  Registrant
incurred  a  loss of $4,000 at the Brass Works, including  $36,000  of
depreciation  expense,  compared to a loss of  $17,000  for  the  same
period  in  1996,  including  $36,000 of  depreciation  expense.   The
decrease  in the loss for the first nine months of 1997 from the  same
period  in  1996  is due to an increase in rental  income  due  to  an
increase  in  the  average rental rates combined with  a  decrease  in
maintenance expense due to a lower turnover of apartment units.

                      In   the   third  quarter  of  1997,  Registrant
recognized income of $4,000 at the Locke Mill Plaza, including  $6,000
of depreciation expense, compared to a loss of $3,000 including $6,000
of depreciation expense in the third quarter of 1996 and for the first
nine  months of 1997, Registrant recognized income of $3,000 including
$19,000 of depreciation expense, compared to a loss of $5,000 for  the
same  period in 1996, including $19,000 of depreciation expense.   The
increase  in net income for both the third quarter and the first  nine
months  in  1997  from the same periods in 1996 is  the  result  of  a
overall decrease in operating expenses.
