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 or about August 11, 2000, the Partnership will make a cash distribution
to its partners totaling $191,342, representing an annualized return of 6% on
invested capital. This distribution is from the operations of the three
apartment properties. Based on the operating results through June, and the
budget for the remainder of the year, operating cash flow during 2000 is
expected to fully fund a distribution rate of 6%.
The Partnership does not anticipate an outlay for any significant capital
improvements or repair costs that might adversely impact its liquidity in 2000.
Results of Operations
Second quarter 2000 revenues increased by $41,768 (4%) when compared to
revenues during the second quarter of 1999. Through the first half of 2000,
revenues increased by $81,815 (4%) when compared to those revenues for the first
half of 1999. The increase in revenues through the first half of the year is a
result of higher rental rates achieved at the properties as the aggregate
occupancy level of the portfolio was unchanged at approximately 92%.
Second quarter operating expenses, excluding interest charges, depreciation
and amortization costs, increased $13,642 (3%) versus similar expenses incurred
during the second quarter of 1999. Through the first half of the year, similar
expenses have increased $19,677 (2%), versus 1999. Operating costs are expected
to increase modestly during the second half of the year due to the exterior
painting of the properties.
Due to the proportionately larger increase in revenues versus operating
expenses (excluding interest charges, depreciation and amortization costs)
through the first half of 2000, the aggregate net operating income of the three
properties increased $62,138 (6%) when compared to the first half of 1999.
Occupancy levels at Woodhills, in Dayton, Ohio, averaged 93% during the
second quarter of 2000. Revenues through the first half of the year were $29,384
(5%) higher than those in 1999 due to lower rental concessions and modest rental
rate increases. The Dayton apartment rental market has improved and rental rates
have increased as a result. Market rental rates have increased from $565 during
the second quarter of 1999 to $592 during the second quarter of 2000,
representing an increase of approximately 5%. Management will continue to
implement rate increases as the market allows.
The rental market in Cincinnati remains strong. The average occupancy level
at the Deerfield property was 96% during the second quarter of 2000 representing
a 1% increase when compared to the second quarter of 1999. The average rental
rate at the community has increased from $623 during the second quarter of 1999
to $665 in the second quarter of 2000, representing an increase of 7%. Due to
occupancy and rental rate increases, revenues during the first half of 2000
increased $40,427 when compared to the first half of 1999. The Cincinnati market
continues to be strong and rents will be increased as the market allows.
At Oakbrook, in Columbus, Ohio, occupancy levels averaged 95% during the
second quarter of 2000, down from 97% during the second quarter of 1999.
Management has been successful in maintaining high occupancy levels at the
property in a competitive market. The average rental rates increased from $575
in the second quarter of 1999 to $591 during the second quarter of 2000,
representing an increase of 3%. Revenues through the first half of 2000
increased $7,351 (1%) when compared to 1999. Management's focus during the
second half of the year will be on increasing rents on all unit types and
keeping expenses at or below budget.
The General Partners are committed to sustaining the positive financial
performance achieved at each of the three properties.
