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%.
<PAGE>
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.
