(Unaudited)
(1) The Fund and Basis of Preparation
The accompanying financial statements of Brown-Benchmark Properties
Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") do not include all of the information
and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The unaudited interim
consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the
interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring
nature. The unaudited interim financial information should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements contained in the 1995 Annual Report.
(2) Investment in Real Estate
Investment in real estate is stated at cost, net of accumulated
depreciation, and is summarized as follows:

(3) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist solely of cash and money market
accounts, stated at cost, which approximate market value at June 30, 1996 and
December 31, 1995.
(4) Related Party Transactions
The Administrative General Partner earned $8,321 and $6,562 during the
quarters ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, for reimbursement of costs
associated with administering the Partnership, including clerical services,
investor communication services, and reports and filings made to regulatory
authorities.

Partner, the managing agent for the properties, earned a management fee of
$41,111 and $40,280 during the quarters ended June 30, 1996 and 1995
respectively.
(5) Mortgage Loans Payable
Each of the properties owned by the Partnership are secured as
collateral for the mortgage loans payable outstanding at June 30, 1996 and
December 31, 1995. Effective August 1, 1992, the existing mortgage loans were
renewed with the current lender for a term of 5 years with an interest rate of
9.0%. Monthly payments are based on a 27-year amortization schedule with a
balloon payment due at the end of the 5-year term.

BROWN-BENCHMARK PROPERTIES LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Partnership's liquidity is largely dependent on its ability to
maintain reasonably high occupancy levels, achieve rental rate increases as the
respective markets allow and to control operating expenses. The Partnership
currently has sufficient liquid assets from its rental revenues to satisfy its
anticipated operating expenditures and debt service obligations.
On August 12, 1996, the Partnership made a cash distribution to its
partners totaling $127,561, representing an annualized return of 4% on invested
capital. Based upon the operating results through June and the budget for the
remainder of the year, operating cash flow during 1996 is expected to yield
approximately 4.7% on invested capital. While operations were slightly behind
budget for the first half of the year due to lower than expected occupancy
levels, improved occupancy trends experienced at each property during July are
expected to be sustained throughout the second half of the year and as a result,
we expect operating results will be on budget for the second half of the year.
We expect a 4% distribution rate will be in place throughout 1996 and will
review Partnership reserves with respect to distribution levels at the end of
the year.
The Partnership does not anticipate an outlay for any other significant
capital improvements or repair costs that might adversely impact its liquidity.
Results of Operations
Second quarter revenues generated from the operation of the three
apartment communities increased marginally when compared to revenues collected
during the second quarter of 1995. Through the first half of 1996, operating
revenues increased less than 1% when compared to revenues received during the
first half of 1995. While collections increased at both the Dayton and Columbus
properties, revenues received at the Cincinnati property decreased due to higher
vacancy levels experienced in 1996. While the gross rent potential for the three
communities increased $85,225 or (4.5%), from $1,887,356 to $1,972,581 the
average aggregate occupancy level of the properties decreased from 93% during
the first half of 1995 to 91% during the first half of 1996. Since the end of
the second quarter occupancy levels have improved at each community (all
properties' occupancy levels are currently 95% or higher) and we expect these
improved levels to be sustained for the remainder of the year. As a result,
revenues are expected to increase throughout the remainder of the year.
Second quarter operating expenses excluding interest charges,
depreciation and amortization costs, decreased $26,276 versus similar expenses
incurred during the second quarter of 1995. Through the first half of the year,
similar expenses increased approximately $21,000, or 3%, versus 1995. Through
the first half of 1996, operating expenses exceeded budget by approximately
$24,000 due primarily to higher maintenance costs. We expect operating costs
throughout the year to remain slightly over budget due to higher than
anticipated lease-up expenditures.
Due to only a marginal increase in revenues, coupled with the increase
in expenses (excluding interest charges, depreciation and amortization costs)
through the first half of 1996 as compared to 1995, the net operating income of
the property decreased $7,666 or approximately 1%.
Payments of principal and interest on the permanent loans were $736,297
during the first half of both 1996 and 1995 and included principal reductions of
$90,542 and 82,777 respectively.
Occupancy levels at Woodhills, in Dayton, Ohio, averaged 90% during the
second quarter of 1996 essentially unchanged from the first quarter of the year.
Rental rates on selected units increased modestly during the second quarter.
Revenues received through the first half of 1996 increased $25,565, or 4.8%,
when compared to 1995 first half revenues. Since the end of the second quarter,
occupancy levels have steadily increased and currently the community is 95%
occupied. Operating expenses are within 3% of budget. Higher than projected
maintenance expenses due to apartment turnover costs resulted in the modest
overage in operating costs. Management believes occupancy levels in the
mid-nineties will be maintained for the remainder of the year.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
Results of Operations (continued)
At Deerfield, in Cincinnati, Ohio, the average occupancy level during
the second quarter was 92% up 5% from the first quarter average of 87%. As a
result of this favorable trend in occupancy, second quarter revenues at
Deerfield increased $16,500, or 5% when compared to revenues collected during
the first quarter of the year. As a result of the first quarter's low occupancy
however, revenues received through the first half of the year remain $15,647
below those collected during the first half of 1995. Occupancy levels have
trended positively since June and currently the community is 95% occupied. Based
on available market information and leasing trends, we expect occupancy levels
will remain at or above 95% throughout 1996. Due to higher than budgeted
maintenance expenses associated with apartment lease-up costs, operating
expenses exceeded budget by approximately 3% during the first half of the year.
At Oakbrook in Columbus, Ohio, occupancy levels averaged 96% during the
second quarter of 1996 up 4% from the first quarter average of 92%. As a result
of this favorable trend, revenues received during the second quarter increased
$16,209 or 6% when compared to the first quarter of the year. Through the first
six months, revenues received at Oakbrook increased $15,657, or 2% when compared
to revenues received during the first half of 1995. Throughout July, occupancy
levels continued to increase and currently the community is 97% occupied.
Maintenance costs associated with the lease-up of units resulted in operating
expenses exceeding the budget by approximately 4% through the first half of the
year.
Management is committed to sustaining the recent positive trend in
occupancy levels experienced at each of the properties. We believe rental rates
will remain essentially unchanged throughout the remainder of the year and are
striving to achieve and maintain a 95% average aggregate occupancy level for the
portfolio. As such, we expect revenues and operating income for the Fund to
increase during each of the last two quarters of the year.
