                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                         DECEMBER 31, 1998 (audited) AND
                           MARCH 31, 1999 (unaudited)

     NOTE 1 -  ORGANIZATION  AND GENERAL  Redwood  Mortgage  Investors  VI, (the
Partnership) is a California Limited Partnership,  of which the General Partners
are D. Russell Burwell,  Michael R. Burwell and Gymno Corporation,  a California
corporation  owned  and  operated  by  the  individual  General  Partners.   The
partnership  was  organized  to engage in business as a mortgage  lender for the
primary  purpose  of making  Mortgage  Investments  secured by Deeds of Trust on
California real estate.  Mortgage Investments are being arranged and serviced by
Redwood Mortgage Corp., an affiliate of the General  Partners.  The offering was
closed with contributed capital totaling $9,781,366.

     Each  months   income  is   distributed   to  partners   based  upon  their
proportionate share of partners capital. Some partners have elected to withdraw
income on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis.

     A. Sales  Commissions - Formation  Loan Sales  commissions  ranging from 0%
(units sold by General  Partners) to 10% of gross  proceeds were paid by Redwood
Mortgage Corp., an affiliate of the General  Partners that arranges and services
the Mortgage  Investments.  To finance the sales  commissions,  the  Partnership
loaned to Redwood  Mortgage  Corp.  $623,255 (the  Formation  Loan)  relating to
contributed  capital of $9,781,366.  The Formation  Loan was unsecured,  and was
repaid, without interest, over ten years, commencing December 31, 1989. The last
payment was made during 1998.

     The following  reflects  transactions in the Formation Loan account through
December 31, 1998:

Amount loaned during 1987,1988 and 1989                                 $623,255
 Less:
  Cash repayments                                       $566,586
  Allocation of early withdrawal penalties                56,669        $623,255
                                                    ============     -----------

 Balance March 31, 1999                                                      $0
                                                                     ===========


     The Formation Loan,  which was a receivable from Redwood Mortgage Corp., an
affiliate of the General Partners,  was deducted from Limited Partners capital
in the balance sheet. As amounts were collected from Redwood Mortgage Corp., the
deduction from capital was reduced.  As of March 31, 1999, there was no longer a
deduction.

     B. Other  Organizational and Offering Expenses  Organizational and offering
expenses, other than sales commissions,  (including printing costs, attorney and
accountant  fees, and other costs),  paid by the  Partnership  from the offering
proceeds  totaled  $360,885 or 3.69% of the gross  proceeds  contributed  by the
Partners. Such costs have been fully amortized and allocated to the Partners.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A. Accrual Basis

     Revenues and expenses are  accounted for on the accrual basis of accounting
wherein  income is recognized as earned and expenses are recognized as incurred.
Once a Mortgage  Investment is  categorized  as impaired,  interest is no longer
accrued thereon.

                       (A California Limited Partnership)
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                         DECEMBER 31, 1998 (audited) AND
                           MARCH 31, 1999 (unaudited)

B. Management Estimates

     In  preparing  the  financial  statements,  management  is required to make
estimates based on the information  available that affects the reported  amounts
of assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet date and revenues and expenses
for the related periods.  Such estimates relate principally to the determination
of the  allowance  for doubtful  accounts,  including  the valuation of impaired
mortgage  investments,  and  the  valuation  of  real  estate  acquired  through
foreclosure. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates.

C. Mortgage Investments, Secured by Deeds of Trust

     The  Partnership  has both the  intent  and  ability  to hold the  Mortgage
Investments to maturity, i.e., held for long-term investment. They are therefore
valued at cost for financial  statement  purposes  with  interest  thereon being
accrued by the simple interest method.

     Financial   Accounting  Standards  Board  Statements  (SFAS)  114  and  118
(effective  January 1, 1995) provide that if the probable  ultimate  recovery of
the carrying amount of a Mortgage  Investment,  with due  consideration  for the
fair value of  collateral,  is less than the  recorded  investment  and  related
amounts due and the  impairment is considered  to be other than  temporary,  the
carrying  amount of the investment  (cost) shall be reduced to the present value
of future cash flows.  The adoption of these  statements did not have a material
effect  on  the  financial  statements  of  the  Partnership  because  that  was
essentially the valuation method previously used on impaired loans.

     At March 31, 1999,  December 31, 1998 and 1997,  reductions  in the cost of
Mortgage  Investments  categorized  as  impaired  by  the  Partnership  totalled
$84,736,  $84,736  and $0,  respectively.  The  reduction  in  stated  value was
accomplished by increasing the allowance for doubtful accounts.

     As presented in Note 10 to the  financial  statements as of March 31, 1999,
the average  mortgage  investment to appraised value of security at the time the
loans  were  consummated  was  66.89%.  When a loan  is  valued  for  impairment
purposes, an updating is made in the valuation of collateral security.  However,
a low loan to value ratio tends to minimize reductions for impairment.

D. Cash and Cash Equivalents

     For purposes of the  statements  of cash flows,  cash and cash  equivalents
include interest bearing and non-interest bearing bank deposits.

E. Real Estate Owned, Held for Sale

     Real estate owned,  held for sale,  includes real estate  acquired  through
foreclosure  and is  stated  at the  lower  of the  recorded  investment  in the
property,  net of any senior  indebtedness,  or at the propertys  estimated fair
value, less estimated costs to sell.

     The following  schedule  reflects the costs of real estate acquired through
foreclosure and the recorded reductions to estimated fair values, less estimated
costs to sell as of March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 and 1997:

                        March 31,           December 31,            December 31,
                           1999                  1998                  1997
                        ------------      ----------------      ----------------

Costs of properties         $146,586              $366,655              $449,319
Reduction in value           134,084               196,733               140,000
                       -------------      ----------------      ----------------

Fair value reflected in 
financial statements         $12,502              $169,922              $309,319
                       =============      ================      ================

     Effective  January 1, 1996,  the  Partnership  adopted  the  provisions  of
statement  No 121  (SFAS  121)  of the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board,
Accounting  for the Impairment of Long Lived Assets and for Long Lived Assets to
be disposed of. The adoption of SFAS 121 did not have a material  impact on the
Partnerships  financial  position because the methods indicated were essentially
those previously used by the Partnership.

F. Investment in Partnership (see note 5)


G. Income Taxes

     No provision  for Federal and State  income taxes is made in the  financial
statements  since  income taxes are the  obligation  of the partners if and when
income taxes apply.

H. Organization and Syndication Costs

     The Partnership  bears its own  organization  and syndication  costs (other
than certain sales  commissions  and fees described  above)  including legal and
accounting expenses,  printing costs, selling expenses, a 1% wholesale brokerage
fee and filing fees.  Organizational  costs of $14,750 were capitalized and were
amortized  over a five year period.  Syndication  costs of $346,135 were charged
against partners capital and were allocated to individual  partners  consistent
with the Partnership Agreement.

I. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

     Mortgage  Investments and the related accrued  interest,  fees and advances
are  analyzed  on a  continuous  basis  for  recoverability.  Delinquencies  are
identified and followed as part of the Mortgage  Investment  system. A provision
is made for doubtful  accounts to adjust the allowance for doubtful  accounts to
an amount  considered by management  to be adequate  with due  consideration  to
collateral value to provide for  unrecoverable  accounts  receivable,  including
impaired  Mortgage  Investments,   unspecified  mortgage  investments,   accrued
interest and advances on Mortgage  Investments,  and other  accounts  receivable
(unsecured).  The composition of the allowance for doubtful accounts as of March
31, 1999, December 31, 1998 and 1997 was a follows:

J. Net Income Per $1,000 Invested

     Amounts  reflected  in the  statements  of income as net  income per $1,000
invested by Limited Partners for the entire period are actual amounts  allocated
to Limited  Partners who have their  investment  throughout  the period and have
elected to either  leave their  earnings to compound or have  elected to receive
monthly  distributions of their net income.  Individual income is allocated each
month based on the Limited partners pro rata share of Partners Capital. Because
the net income  percentage  varies from month to month,  amounts per $1,000 will
vary for those individuals who made or withdrew  investments  during the period,
or select other options. However, the net income per $1,000 average invested has
approximated  those  reflected  for those whose  investments  and  options  have
remained constant.

NOTE 3 - GENERAL PARTNERS AND RELATED PARTIES

     The  following  are  commissions  and/or fees which are paid to the General
Partners and/or related parties.

A. Mortgage Brokerage Commissions

     Mortgage brokerage  commissions for services in connection with the review,
selection,  evaluation,  negotiation  and extension of the Mortgage  Investments
were limited up to 12% of the  principal  amount of the loans through the period
ending  6  months  after  the  termination  date  of the  offering.  Thereafter,
commissions  are limited to an amount not to exceed 4% of the total  Partnership
assets  per year.  Such  commissions  are paid by the  borrowers,  thus,  not an
expense of the  Partnership.  For the three  months  ended March 31,  1999,  the
commissions  totalled  $14,020  and for the  years  ended  1998  and  1997,  the
commissions were $36,700 and $10,000, respectively.

B. Mortgage Servicing Fees

     Monthly  mortgage  servicing fees are paid to Redwood  Mortgage Corp. up to
1/8 of 1% (1.5%  annual) of the unpaid  principal,  or such lesser  amount as is
reasonable and customary in the geographic area where the property  securing the
Mortgage Investment is located. Mortgage servicing fees of $16,795, $70,630, and
$39,918, were incurred for three months ended March 31, 1999, and for years 1998
and 1997.

C. Asset Management Fee

     The General  Partners are  authorized to receive  monthly fees for managing
the Partnerships  Mortgage Investment portfolio and operations of up to 1/32 of
1% (3/8 of 1%  annually).  Management  fees  incurred for the three months ended
March  31,  1999,  and for  years  1998 and 1997  were  $2,729,  $6,640  and $0,
respectively.

D. Other Fees

     The  Partnership  Agreement  provides for other fees such as  reconveyance,
mortgage  assumption  and mortgage  extension  fees.  These fees are paid by the
borrowers to parties related to the General Partners.

E. Income and Losses

     All  income is  credited  or  charged  to  partners  in  relation  to their
respective  partnership  interests.  The  partnership  interest  of the  General
Partners (combined) is a total of 1%.

F. Operating Expenses

     The  General  Partners  or their  affiliate  (Redwood  Mortgage  Corp.) are
reimbursed by the Partnership for all operating  expenses  actually  incurred by
them on behalf of the Partnership,  including without limitation,  out-of-pocket
general and administration expenses of the Partnership,  accounting,  legal fees
and expenses,  postage and preparation of reports to Limited Partners.  In 1997,
1998,  and three months  period ended March 31, 1999,  clerical  costs  totaling
$27,786 $24,440 and $5,673,  respectively,  were reimbursed to Redwood  Mortgage
and are included in expenses in the Statements of Income.

NOTE 4 - OTHER PARTNERSHIP PROVISIONS

A. Term of the Partnership

     The term of the  Partnership  is  approximately  40  years,  unless  sooner
terminated as provided.  The provisions  provided for no capital  withdrawal for
the first five years,  subject to the penalty  provision set forth in (D) below.
Thereafter,  investors  have the right to withdraw over a five-year  period,  or
longer.

B. Election to Receive Monthly, Quarterly or Annual Distributions

     Upon subscriptions,  investors elected either to receive monthly, quarterly
or  annual  distributions  of  earnings  allocations,  or to allow  earnings  to
compound for at least a period of 5 years.

C. Profits and Losses

     Profits  and  losses  are  allocated  monthly  among the  Limited  Partners
according  to their  respective  capital  accounts  after 1% is allocated to the
General Partners.

D. Withdrawal From Partnership

     A Limited  Partner  had no right to  withdraw  from the  Partnership  or to
obtain  the return of his  capital  account  for at least five years  after such
units were  purchased,  which in all  instances  had occurred by March 31, 1999.
After that  time,  at the  election  of the  Partner,  capital  accounts  can be
returned  over a five year  period in 20 equal  quarterly  installments  or such
longer period as is requested.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                           MARCH 31, 1999 (unaudited)

     Notwithstanding  the  above,  in order  to  provide  a  certain  degree  of
liquidity to the Limited Partners, the General Partners will liquidate a Limited
Partners entire capital account in four quarterly installments beginning on the
last day of the calendar  quarter  following  the quarter in which the notice of
withdrawal is given. Such liquidations shall, however, be subject to a 10% early
withdrawal  penalty applicable to any sums withdrawn prior to the time when such
sums otherwise could have been withdrawn  pursuant to the liquidation  procedure
set forth  above.  The 10% early  withdrawal  penalty  will be  received  by the
Partnership, and a portion of the sums collected as such penalty will be applied
toward the next installment(s) of principal under the Formation Loan owed to the
Partnership by Redwood  Mortgage.  Such portion shall be determined by the ratio
between  the  initial  amount of  Formation  Loan and the total  amount of other
organization and syndication costs incurred by the Partnership in this offering.
The  balance of any such early  withdrawal  penalties  shall be  retained by the
Partnership for its own account and applied against syndication costs. Since the
syndication  costs have been fully  amortized as of December  31, 1993,  and the
formation loan was paid in 1998, the early  withdrawal  penalties  gained in the
future will be credited to income for the period received.

     The Partnership will not establish a reserve from which to fund withdrawals
and,  accordingly,  the  Partnership's  capacity  to return a  Limited  Partners
capital  account is restricted to the  availability  of  Partnership  cash flow.
Furthermore,  no more than 20% of the total Limited  Partners  capital  accounts
outstanding at the beginning of any year shall be liquidated during any calendar
year.

NOTE 5 - INVESTMENT IN PARTNERSHIP

     The  Partnerships  interest in land  located in East Palo Alto,  CA.,  was
acquired through foreclosure. The Partnership interest was invested with that of
two other  Partnerships.  The  Partnerships  had been  attempting to develop the
property into single family residences.  Significant  community  resistance,  as
well as environmental, and fish and wildlife concerns affected efforts to obtain
the required  approvals.  The  Partnership,  in resolving  disputes  which arose
during the course of the Partnerships  attempt to obtain entitlements to develop
the property,  entered into agreements on May 8, 1998 with  Rhone-Poulanc,  Inc.
These agreements,  among other things,  restrict the property to non-residential
uses, provide for appropriate indemnifications,  and include other consideration
including the payment of cash. The Partnership  still retains  liability for the
remediation of pesticide contamination affecting the property.  Investigation of
remediation  options are ongoing.  At this time management does not believe that
remediation of the pesticide contaminants will have a material adverse effect on
the financial condition of the Partnership.

NOTE 6 - NOTE PAYABLE BANK - LINE OF CREDIT

     The  Partnership  had a  bank  line  of  credit  secured  by  its  Mortgage
Investment  portfolio  up to  $2,000,000  at 1% over prime.  The  balances  were
$899,011,  $390,000 and  $400,000 at December  31, 1997 and 1998,  and March 31,
1999,  respectively,  and the  interest  rate at March 31, 1999 was 8.75% (7.75%
prime + 1%).  Commencing  January 1,  1999,  the  Partnership  had  reduced  its
borrowing  limit to $1,000,000  with same  conditions as previously  stipulated.
Balance at March 31, 1999, was $400,000 and the  Partnership  was current in its
interest payment. The line of credit expires December 31, 1999.

NOTE 7 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     The  Partnership  is not a defendant in any legal actions.  However,  legal
actions against  borrowers and other involved parties have been initiated by the
Partnership  to help  assure  payments  against  unsecured  accounts  receivable
totaling $23,776.

     Management  anticipates that the ultimate outcome of the legal matters will
not have a material  adverse effect on the net assets of the  Partnership,  with
due  consideration  having been given in arriving at the  allowance for doubtful
accounts.

NOTE 8 - INCOME TAXES

     The following reflects a reconciliation  from net assets (Partners Capital)
reflected in the financial statements to the tax basis of
those net assets:

     In 1998,  approximately  71% of taxable  income was allocated to tax exempt
organizations i.e.,  retirement plans. Such plans do not have to file income tax
returns  unless their  unrelated  business  income  exceeds  $1,000.  Applicable
amounts become taxable when distribution is made to participants.

NOTE 9 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     The following  methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value
of financial instruments:

     (a) Cash and Cash  Equivalents - The carrying amount equals fair value. All
amounts, including interest bearing, are subject to immediate withdrawal.

     (b) The  Carrying  Value  of  Mortgage  Investments  - (see  note 2 (c)) is
$7,873,133.  The March 31, 1999 fair value of these investments of $7,868,917 is
estimated  based upon projected cash flows  discounted at the estimated  current
interest rates at which similar loans would be made.  The  applicable  amount of
the allowance  for doubtful  accounts  along with accrued  interest and advances
related  thereto  should also be considered in evaluating  the fair value versus
the carrying value.

     The  scheduled   maturities   for  1999  include   $2,073,081  in  Mortgage
Investments which are past maturity at March 31, 1999. $99,134 of those Mortgage
Investments were categorized as delinquent over 90 days.

     Eight Mortgage  Investments  with  principal  outstanding of $1,168,972 had
interest payments overdue in excess of 90 days.

     The cash  balance  at March 31,  1999 of  $290,449  was in two  banks  with
interest  bearing  balances  totalling  $259,060.  The  balances  exceeded  FDIC
insurance  limits (up to $100,000 per bank) by $96,433.  As and when deposits in
the Partnerships bank accounts increase significantly beyond the insured limit,
the funds are either placed in new Mortgage  Investments  or used to pay down on
the line of credit balance.

                            and Results of Operations

     On September 2, 1989,  the  Partnership  had sold  97,725.94  Units and its
contributed  capital totalled  $9,772,594 of the approved  $12,000,000 issue, in
Units of $100 each. As of that date the offering was formally  closed.  On March
31, 1999, the Partnerships net capital totalled $8,552,278.

     The  Partnership  began funding  Mortgage  Investments in October 1987. The
Partnerships Mortgage Investments  outstanding for the years ended December 31,
1996,  1997,  1998 and three months  through  March 31, 1999,  were  $9,313,924,
$8,104,984,  $7,969,735 and $7,873,133,  respectively.  The decrease in Mortgage
Investments  outstanding of $1,440,791 from December 31, 1996 to March 31, 1999,
was due primarily to the Partnership  utilizing  Mortgage  Investment payoffs to
meet Limited  Partner capital  liquidations  and line of credit pay-down to save
interest expense on the note. During the years 1996, 1997, 1998 and three months
through  March 31, 1999,  Mortgage  Investment  principal  collections  exceeded
Limited Partner liquidations.

     Currently,  general mortgage  interest rates are lower than those prevalent
at the inception of the Partnership. New Mortgage Investments will be originated
at these lower interest rates. The result is to reduce the average return across
the entire Mortgage Investment portfolio held by the Partnership. In the future,
interest  rates  likely  will  change  from their  current  levels.  The General
Partners  cannot at this time predict at what levels  interest  rates will be in
the future.  Although the rates charged by the Partnership are influenced by the
level of interest  rates in the market,  the General  Partners do not anticipate
that rates charged by the Partnership to its borrowers will change significantly
from the  beginning  of 1999 over the next 12 months.  As of March 31,  1999 the
Partnerships Real Estate Owned account and the Investment in Partnership account
have been reduced to a $12,502 balance. These accounts had balances of $169,922,
$1,017,460 and $ 1,937,047 as of December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
The conversion of these non-earning assets will allow the Partnership to produce
current income from previously non earning  assets.  The overall effect of these
developments  will allow the  Partnerships  yield to rise. The General Partners
anticipate  that the annualized  yield for the  forthcoming  year 1999,  will be
higher than the last years performance level.

     Each year,  the  Partnership  negotiates a line of credit with a commercial
bank which is secured by its  Mortgage  Investment  portfolio.  The  outstanding
balance  of the bank line of  credit  was  $1,530,511,  $899,011,  $390,000  and
$400,000 for the years ended December 1996,  1997, 1998 and three months through
March 31, 1999,  respectively.  The interest rate on the bank line of credit has
remained at Prime plus one percent since  inception.  For the three months ended
March 31, 1999 and years ended  December 31,  1998,  1997 and 1996 , interest on
Note Payable-Bank was $3,284,  $43,170,  $133,577and $158,175 respectively.  The
primary  reason for this decrease was that the  Partnership  had a lower overall
credit facility  utilization  from 1995 to 1996 and from 1996 to March 31, 1999.
As of March 31, 1999, the Partnership has borrowed  $400,000 at an interest rate
of Prime plus one percent.  This added  source of funds will help in  maximizing
the  Partnership  yield by allowing  the  Partnership  to minimize the amount of
funds in lower yield investment accounts when appropriate  Mortgage  Investments
are not  currently  available and because the Mortgage  Investments  made by the
Partnership usually bear interest at a rate in excess of the rate payable to the
bank  which  extended  the line of  credit,  the  amount to be  retained  by the
Partnership,  after  payment of the line of credit  cost,  will be greater  than
without the use of the line of credit.

     The Partnership's operating results and delinquencies are within the normal
range of the  General  Partners  expectations,  based upon their  experience  in
managing similar Partnerships over the last twenty- two years.  Foreclosures are
a normal aspect of partnership  operations and the General  Partners  anticipate
that they will not have a material  effect on  liquidity.  As of March 31, 1999,
there were four properties in foreclosure.  Cash is continually  being generated
from interest  earnings,  late charges,  prepayment  penalties,  amortization of
notes and pay-off of notes. Currently,  this amount exceeds Partnership expenses
and  earnings  and  principal  payout   requirements.   As  Mortgage  Investment
opportunities become available,  excess cash and available funds are invested in
new Mortgage Investments.
<PAGE>
     The General Partners  regularly review the Mortgage  Investment  portfolio,
examining the status of delinquencies,  the underlying collateral securing these
Mortgage  Investments,  REO expenses,  sales activities,  and borrowers payment
records and other data relating to the Mortgage  Investment  portfolio.  Data on
the local real estate market, and on the national and local economy are studied.
Based upon this  information  and more,  Mortgage  Investment  loss reserves and
allowance  for doubtful  accounts are  increased  or  decreased.  Because of the
number of variables  involved,  the magnitude of possible swings and the General
Partners  inability to control many of these factors,  actual results may and do
sometimes  differ  significantly  from estimates  made by the General  Partners.
Management provided $312,684,  $268,101,  $180,054 and $30,584, as provision for
doubtful accounts for the years ended December 31, 1996,  December 31, 1997, and
December 31, 1998 and three months  through  March 31, 1999,  respectively.  The
decrease in the provision  reflects the decrease in the amount of REO, unsecured
receivables  and the  decreasing  levels of  delinquency  within the  portfolio.
Additionally, the General Partners felt that the bottom of the real estate cycle
had been  reached,  reflecting a decreasing  need to set aside  reserves for the
continuously  declining  real  estate  values  as had been the case in the early
1990s  in the  California  real  estate  market.  As of  March  31,  1999,  the
Partnership  reduced the REO balance from $1,501,712 as of December 31, 1995, to
$12,502  through March 31, 1999.  This  reduction  assisted the  Partnership  in
increasing yields in 1999, as assets previously lying idle, now produced current
income.

     The December 1998 issue of Western Economic Developments,  published by the
Federal  Reserve Bank of San Francisco,  said the following about the California
economy:

     The pace of  economic  growth in  California  was  solid in recent  months,
despite continued contraction in some major industries. Total payroll employment
rose 3.2 percent on an annual basis in October and  November.  This is above the
average growth rate for the first eleven months of 1998, but it is below the 3.8
percent pace from last year.  Faced by declining export demand and rising import
competition,   durable   goods   manufacturers   cut   employment  in  November.
Manufacturers of computers and electronic components have been particularly hard
hit this year, and aerospace employment has contracted. However, the pace of job
creation has remained strong in sectors other than  manufacturing,  and this has
helped to lower the state unemployment rate to 5.7 percent in November.

     Californias  state and local  governments  have created new jobs at about a
2.5 percent annual pace this year, a pickup from prior years that is due in part
to improved fiscal  capacity.  About 21,000 of the 29,000 jobs created this year
were for educators at local schools.
 
     To the Partnership, the above evaluation of the California economy means an
increase in property values, job growth, personal income growth, etc., which all
translates  into  more  loan  activity,  which of  course,  is  healthy  for the
Partnerships lending activity.

     The  Partnerships  interest  in land  located  in East Palo  Alto,  Ca, was
acquired through foreclosure.  The Partnerships interest was invested with that
of two other  Partnerships.  The  Partnerships  basis of $0, $0,  $708,141  and
$496,040  for the three  months  through  March 31, 1999 and for the years ended
December 31, 1998,  December 31, 1997 and 1996  respectively,  has been invested
with that of two other  Partnerships.  The  Partnership  had been  attempting to
develop property into an approximately 63 units  residential  subdivision,  (the
Development). The proposed Development had gained significant public awareness
as a result of  certain  environmental,  fish and  wildlife  density,  and other
concerns.  Incorporated  into the proposed  Development were various  mitigation
measures included remediation of hazardous material existing on the property and
protection  of  potentially  affected  species due to the  proximity  to the San
Francisco   Baylands.   These  issues  and  others  sparked  significant  public
controversy.  Opposition  against  and  support  for  the  proposed  Development
existed. Among those in opposition to the project was Rhone Poulanc, Inc., which
is responsible for a nearby hazardous waste site.  Rhone Poulanc,  Inc. has been
identified  as the  Responsible  Party  for the  Arsenic  Contamination  which
affected a portion of the property. On May 8, 1998, the Partnership, in order to
resolve disputes which arose during the course of
<PAGE>
attempts  to  obtain  entitlements  for  this  Development,   entered  into
agreements with  Rhone-Poulanc,  Inc., which among other things,  restricted the
property to non residential uses,  provided for appropriate  indemnification and
included other  consideration  including a cash payment to the Partnership.  The
Partnership has retained ownership of the property,  which is subject to various
deed restrictions,  options and or first rights of refusal. The General Partners
are  pleased  with this  outcome to the  residential  development  attempt.  The
General  Partners  may now  explore  other  available  options  with  respect to
alternative uses for the property. In order to pursue these options, rezoning of
the propertys existing residential zoning classification will be required.  The
Partnership is continuing to explore  remediation  options available to mitigate
the  pesticide  contamination,   which  affects  the  property.  This  pesticide
contamination  appears  to be the  result of  agricultural  operations  by prior
owners,  and is unrelated to the Arsenic  Contamination for which Rhone Poulanc,
Inc. remains responsible.  The General Partners do not believe at this time that
remediation of the pesticide contaminants will have a material adverse effect on
the financial condition of the Partnership.

     At the time of subscription to the  Partnership,  Limited  Partners made an
irrevocable decision to either take distributions of earnings monthly, quarterly
or annually or to compound  earnings  in their  capital  account.  For the years
ended December 31, 1996, 1997, and 1998 and three months through March 31, 1999,
the  Partnership  made  distributions  of  earnings  to Limited  Partners  after
allocation of syndication  costs of, $288,796,  $252,378,  $230,712 and $54,298,
respectively.  Distribution of Earnings to Limited  Partners after allocation of
syndication costs for the years ended December 31, 1996,  December 31, 1997, and
December 31, 1998, and three months  through March 31, 1999 to Limited  Partners
capital accounts and not withdrawn was $293,484, $271,517, $276,668 and $75,312,
respectively.  As of December 31, 1996, December 31, 1997, and December 31, 1998
and three months through March 31, 1999,  Limited Partners  electing to withdraw
earnings represented 49 %, 46%, 43% and 43% respectively of the Limited Partners
outstanding capital accounts.

     The Partnership  also allows the Limited Partners to withdraw their capital
account  subject  to  certain   limitations  (see   liquidation   provisions  of
Partnership  Agreement).  For the years ended  December 31,  1996,  December 31,
1997,  December 31,  1998,  and three months  through  March 31, 1999,  $96,362,
$159,732, $122,069 and $19,567, respectively, were liquidated subject to the 10%
and/or 8%  penalty  for early  withdrawal.  These  withdrawals  are  within  the
normally  anticipated  range that the  General  Partners  would  expect in their
experience in this and other  Partnerships.  The General  Partners expect that a
small  percentage  of Limited  Partners  will elect to liquidate  their  capital
accounts  over one  year  with a 10%  and/or  8% early  withdrawal  penalty.  In
originally  conceiving the  Partnership,  the General Partners wanted to provide
Limited   Partners  needing  their  capital  returned  a  degree  of  liquidity.
Generally, Limited Partners electing to withdraw over one year need to liquidate
investments  to raise  cash.  The  trend  the  Partnership  is  experiencing  in
withdrawals  by  Limited  Partners  electing  a  one  year  liquidation  program
represents  a small  percentage  of Limited  Partner  capital as of December 31,
1996, December 31, 1997, December 31, 1998 and March 31, 1999,  respectively and
is expected by the General Partners to commonly occur at these levels.

     Additionally,  for the years ended  December 31,  1996,  December 31, 1997,
December  31,  1998  and  three  months  through  March  31,  1999,  $1,086,737,
$1,137,677,  $938,040 and  $207,662,  respectively,  were  liquidated by Limited
Partners who have elected a  liquidation  program over a period of five years or
longer.  Once the initial five year hold period has passed, the General Partners
expect to see an increase in liquidations due to the ability of Limited Partners
to  withdraw  without  penalty.  This  ability to  withdraw  after five years by
Limited Partners has the effect of providing Limited Partner liquidity which the
General  Partners  then  expect  a  portion  of the  Limited  Partners  to avail
themselves  of.  This has the  anticipated  effect of the  partnership  growing,
primarily  through  reinvestment  of  earnings in years one  through  five.  The
General Partners expect to see increasing numbers of Limited Partner withdrawals
in years five through eleven,  at which time the bulk of those Limited  Partners
who have  sought  withdrawal  will  have been  liquidated.  After  year  eleven,
liquidation  generally  subsides  and the  Partnership  capital  again  tends to
increase.

     The Year 2000 will be a challenge for the entire world, with respect to the
conversion of existing computerized operations. The Partnership is completing an
assessment of Year 2000 hardware and software issues. This assessment is not yet
fully complete.  The Partnership  relies on Redwood Mortgage Corp., an affiliate
of the Partnership,  and third parties to provide loan and investor services and
other  computerized  functions,  effected by Year 2000 computerized  operations.
Major  services  provided  to  the  Partnership  by  these  companies  are  loan
servicing,  accounting  and  investor  services.  The  vendors  that  supply the
software for loan servicing  have already  confirmed  compliance  with Year 2000
issues.  Installation  of accounting  software that is Year 2000  compliant will
begin during the second  quarter of 1999. The investor  servicing  software Year
2000 compliance is still under assessment.  Existing investor servicing software
maintenance  agreements  provide for  conversion  to Year 2000  compliance to be
provided by the vendor.  Additionally,  the  Partnership  has contacted  several
vendors that provide investor  services as a possible  alternative to continuing
to provide  investors  services in house.  It would  appear  that these  service
providers  would be more expensive than the current in house systems but they do
provide a back-up  alternative in the event of our own failure to fully convert.
Hardware utilized by Redwood Mortgage Corp., is currently being tested to insure
that modifications  necessary to be made prior to Year 2000 can be accomplished.
At this juncture,  existing hardware appears to be substantially  compliant with
Year 2000 issues.

     The costs of updating  the various  software  systems  will be borne by the
various  companies  that supply the  Partnership  with services.  Therefore,  no
significant  capital outlays are  anticipated  and the Partnership  expects only
incidental costs of conversion for Year 2000 issues.

     The Partnership is in the business of making Mortgage  Investments  secured
by real estate. The most important factor in making the Mortgage  Investments is
the value of the real estate  security.  Year 2000 issues have some potential to
effect  industries  and  businesses  located  in the  marketplaces  in which the
Partnership places its Mortgage  Investments.  This would only have an affect on
the Partnership if Year 2000 issues cause a significant downturn in the northern
California economy. In fact, Silicon Valley is located in our marketplace. There
may be significant  increased  demand for Silicon Valley type services and goods
as companies make ready for the Year 2000 conversion.

     Although not fully developed, if all or any accounting,  loan servicing and
investor  services   conversions   should  fail,  the  size  and  scope  of  the
Partnerships  activities  are such that they  could be  handled  at an equal or
higher cost on a manual basis or outsourced to other  servicers  existing in the
industry, while correcting the systems problems and are likely to be temporarily
in nature.  While this would entail some initial set up costs, these costs would
likely not be so significant as to have a material effect upon the  Partnership,
shifting portions of daily operations to manual or outsourced systems may result
in time delays.  Time delays in providing  accurate  and  pertinent  information
could negatively affect customer relations and lead to the potential loss of new
loans and Limited Partner investments.
<PAGE>

     The  foregoing  analysis  of  Year  2000  issues  includes  forward-looking
statements  and  predictions  about  possible  or  future  events,   results  of
operations  and  financial  condition.  As such,  this  analysis may prove to be
inaccurate  because of the assumptions made by the General Partner or the actual
development  of  future  events.  No  assurance  can be given  that any of these
forward-looking  statements and predictions  will ultimately prove to be correct
or even substantially correct.

     Various  other  risks and  uncertainties  could  also  affect the Year 2000
analysis  causing the effect on the Partnership to be more severe than discussed
above. The General Partners Year 2000 compliance  testing cannot guarantee that
all computer  systems will function  without  error beyond the Year 2000.  Risks
also exist with respect to Year 2000 compliance by external parties who may have
no  relationship  to the  Partnership  or the  General  Partner,  but who have a
significant  relationship with one or more third parties,  and may have a system
failure that adversely  affects the  Partnerships  ability to conduct business.
While the General  Partner is attempting to identify such external  parties,  no
assurance can be given that it will be able to do so. Furthermore, third parties
with  direct  relationships  with  the  Partnership,  whose  systems  have  been
identified  as likely to be Year 2000  compliant,  may suffer a breakdown due to
unforeseen circumstances.  It is also possible that the information collected by
the General Partner for these third parties regarding their compliance with Year
2000 issues may be  incorrect.  Finally,  it should be noted that the  foregoing
discussion of Year 2000 issues assumes that to the extent the General  Partners
systems fail,  whether because of unforeseen  complications  or because of third
parties failure,  switching to manual operations will allow the Partnership to
continue  to conduct  its  business.  While the General  Partner  believes  this
assumption to be reasonable,  if it is incorrect,  the Partnerships  results of
operations would likely be adversely affected.
