NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1996
(Unaudited)


1.       ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL REPORTING POLICIES

The condensed  financial  statements  included  herein have been prepared by the
Registrant,  without  audit,  pursuant  to  the  rules  and  regulations  of the
Securities and Exchange  Commission.  The Registrant's  accounting and financial
reporting  policies  are  in  conformity  with  generally  accepted   accounting
principles and include adjustments in interim periods considered necessary for a
fair presentation of the results of operations. Certain information and footnote
disclosures  normally  included in financial  statements  prepared in accordance
with generally  accepted  accounting  principles  have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to such rules and  regulations.  It is suggested  that these  financial
statements  be read in  conjunction  with the  financial  statements  and  notes
thereto included in the Registrant's latest annual report on Form 10-K.

The  accompanying  financial  statements  reflect the  Partnership's  results of
operations  for an interim  period  and are not  necessarily  indicative  of the
results of operations for the year ending December 31, 1996.


2.       TAXABLE INCOME

The  Partnership's  results of  operations on a tax basis are expected to differ
from net loss for financial  reporting  purposes primarily due to the accounting
differences in the recognition of depreciation and amortization.


3.       RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Partnership  paid an affiliate of WFA a property  management fee of $103,114
and $97,542 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. An
Investor  Service fee of $41,350 for the three  months  ended March 31, 1996 and
$41,350 for the three  months ended March 31, 1995 was also paid to affiliate of
WFA. This fee increases annually by 6%.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The  Partnership's  sole  asset  is a 1,222  unit  apartment  complex  known  as
Riverside Park located in Fairfax  County,  Virginia.  The Property is leased to
tenants  subject to leases of up to one year. The  Partnership  requires cash to
pay principal and interest on the mortgage loan  encumbering the Property and to
pay operating  expenses in connection  with the Property,  including  management
fees and general and administrative  expenses. The Partnership continues to have
positive  cash flow  after  its  operating  and debt  service  requirements  and
provides  cash   distributions  to  its  partners.   It  is  expected  that  the
Partnership's  income  will be  sufficient  in future  years to  continue to pay
theses expenses as well as to provide for cash distributions to its partners.

The Washington,  D.C., area apartment market is stable but remains  competitive.
The  Partnership  continues  to make  capital  improvements  to the  property to
enhance its  competitiveness  within the local  market.  The  Partnership  spent
$203,589 on capital  improvements  during the first  quarter of 1996 compared to
$45,628 in the first  quarter of 1995.  Improvements  include  balcony  and deck
repairs,  new machines in the fitness  center,  marble flooring in the hallways,
energy saving conversion to the plumbing and continuous renovating and upgrading
of apartment units. The capital  improvements  have been funded by a combination
of the property's reserves and cash flow from operations.  As of March 31, 1996,
the  Partnership  had a cash balance of  approximately  $2.0 million,  including
$565,538 that is being held by the lender to complete unit renovations.

The  Property's  Mortgage Loan is evidenced by a promissory  note payable by the
Partnership  to GMAC and secured by a mortgage in favor of GMAC on the  Property
in the full amount of the Mortgage  Loan.  As of March 31, 1996,  the  remaining
blance of the Mortgage Loan was $37,987,431. The Mortgage Loan bears interest at
the rate of 9.9375%,  requiring  monthly  payments  of  principal  and  interest
totaling  $357,912.  The  Mortgage  Loan  matures in July 1996,  at which time a
balloon  payment  of  the  remaining  outstanding  principal  in the  amount  of
$37,810,866  balance  will be due.  The  General  Partner  has  actively  sought
replacement  financing for the Mortgage  Loan,  however,  no commitment has been
received as of May,  1996.  Although the General  Partner is confident  that the
Mortgage  Loan  can be  replaced,  if the  Mortgage  Loan  is  not  extended  or
refinanced or the Property not sold, the Property could be lost through mortgage
foreclosure.

Results of Operations

The  Partnership's  net loss  declined  from $504,868 for the three months ended
March 31, 1995 to $340,114 for the three months ended March 31, 1996.  Excluding
non-cash items such as depreciation and amortization, however, the Partnership's
property has generated  positive cash flow,  which the Partnership  used to make
improvements to the property, and pay down the loan encumbering the property.

The Partnership's revenue increased from $2,515,883 to $2,695,253 or by 7.1% for
the first quarter of 1996  compared to the first quarter of 1995.  Rental Income
was 7.0% higher  reflecting an increase average  occupancy to 98% in the quarter
ended March 31, 1996 compared to 90% for the same quarter in 1995.  The improved
occupancy was partially offset by a decrease in average rental charges from $692
per unit to $677 per unit in 1996.

The direct operating costs of the  Partnership's  property  declined by 12.9% or
$158,782 from  $1,231,520 for the quarter ended March 31, 1995 to $1,072,738 for
the March 31, 1996 quarter. The cost savings were primarily as a result of lower
leasing,  utilities, and repairs and maintenance expenses, and a decrease in the
property's taxes.
 The  Partnership's   depreciation  and  amortization  expense  categories  were
consistent with the results for the same period in 1995.

Interest expense decreased from $954,004 for the quarter ended March 31, 1995 to
$946,898  for the  quarter  ended  March 31,  1996 as a result of the lower debt
balance outstanding.







<PAGE>



Other  expenses  increased from $19,526 to $220,609 in the first quarter of 1996
primarily as a result of approximately  $180,000 of legal costs incurred related
to litigation  initiated by the  Partnership  in  connection  with a third party
proxy solicitation.

The  results of  operations  in future  quarters  may differ from the results of
operations  for the quarter ended March 31, 1996,  due to inflation and changing
economic  conditions  which could  affect  occupancy  levels,  rental  rates and
operating expenses.
