NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 1997

(Unaudited)

1.       ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL REPORTING POLICIES

The condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by the
Partnership, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The Partnership'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 Partnership'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, 1997.

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 the general partner property management
fees of $102,665 and $103,114 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and
1996, respectively. An Investor Service fee of $46,460 for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 and $41,350 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 was
also paid to an affiliate of the general partner. 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 these
expenses as well as to provide for cash distributions to its partners.

The Washington, D.C., area apartment market is stable and remains competitive.
The Partnership continues to make capital improvements to the property to
enhance its competitiveness within the local market. The Partnership spent
$70,603 on capital improvements during the first quarter of 1997 compared to
$203,589 in the first quarter of 1996. Improvements include common area hallway
renovations and individual HVAC system replacements. As of March 31, 1997, the
Partnership had a cash balance of approximately $2,661,862, including $454,700
that is being held by the lender in a reserve account to complete unit
renovations.

The Property's mortgage loan is evidenced by a promissory note payable by the
Partnership to GECC and secured by a mortgage in favor of GECC on the Property
in the amount of $47,000,000. The mortgage loan bears interest at the rate of
LIBOR plus 2.75%, requiring monthly payments of principal and interest totaling
$367,532. The mortgage loan matures in September 2001, at which time a balloon
payment of the remaining outstanding principal balance will be due.

Results of Operations

The Partnership's net loss declined from $340,114 for the three months ended
March 31, 1996 to $101,696 for the three months ended March 31, 1997. 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, pay debt service on the loan encumbering the
property, and provide distributions to the partners.

The Partnership's revenue increased from $2,695,253 to $2,696,521, or by 1%, for
the first quarter of 1997 compared to the first quarter of 1996. Rental Income
was 1% higher reflecting an increase average occupancy to 98% in the quarter
ended March 31, 1997 compared to 96% for the same quarter in 1996. The improved
occupancy was partially offset by a decrease in average rental charges from $692
per unit to $677 per unit in 1997.

The direct operating costs of the Partnership's property declined by 5% or
$51,053 from $1,072,738 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 to $1,021,685 for
the March 31, 1997 quarter. The cost savings were primarily as a result of lower
leasing, general and adminstrative utilities, and repairs and maintenance
expenses, and property taxes. The Partnership's depreciation and amortization
expense categories were consistent with the results for the same period in 1996.

Interest expense increased from $946,898 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 to
$959,581 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 as a result of the higher debt
balance outstanding.

Other expenses decreased from $220,609 to $54,047 in the first quarter of 1997
primarily as a result of a nonrecurring litigation expense of $180,000 in 1996.


The results of operations in future quarters may differ from the results of
operations for the quarter ended March 31, 1997, due to inflation and changing
economic conditions which could affect occupancy levels, rental rates and
operating expenses.
