                      Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.  The Partnership

Dean Witter Realty Income Partnership IV, L.P. (the "Partnership") is a
limited partnership organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on
October 31, 1986.  
    
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Partnership and its majority-controlled subsidiaries, Technology Park
Associates and Lake Colorado Associates, the owner of Pasadena Financial
Center.  The Partnership's interests in Taxter Corporate Park and the
partnership which owns an interest in Chesterbrook Corporate Center are
accounted for on the equity method.  

The Partnership's records are maintained on the accrual basis of
accounting for financial and tax reporting purposes.  
    
Net income per Unit amounts are calculated by dividing net income
allocated to Limited Partners, in accordance with the Partnership
Agreement, by the weighted average number of Units outstanding.
    
In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements,
which have not been audited, include all adjustments, consisting only of
normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the results for
the interim periods.

six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

Another affiliate of the Managing General Partner performs administrative
functions, processes investor transactions and prepares tax information
for the Partnership.  For each of the six-month periods ended June 30,
1995 and 1994, the Partnership incurred approximately $203,000 for these
services.  

As of June 30, 1995, the affiliates were owed approximately $48,000 for
these services.

3.  Subsequent Event
    
On July 28, 1995, the Partnership paid a cash distribution of $5.00 per
Unit to the Limited Partners.  The total cash distribution amounted to
$1,691,317, with $1,522,185 distributed to the Limited Partners and
$169,132 to the General Partners.

 DEAN WITTER REALTY INCOME PARTNERSHIP IV, L.P.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
          Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Partnership raised $152,218,500 in a public offering of 304,437 units
which was terminated in 1988.  The Partnership has no plans to raise
additional capital.    

The Partnership has made four investments in partnerships, which own
interests in properties, on an all-cash basis.  The Partnership's
acquisition program has been completed.  No additional investments are
planned.

Many real estate markets are stabilizing, primarily due to the continued
absence of significant construction activity.  However, the recovery of
the office market has been and may continue to be slow, because tenant
demand is weak, as a result of slow job growth.

Real estate markets are generally divided into sub-markets by geographic
location and property type.  Not all sub-markets have been affected
equally by the above factors.

The Partnership's liquidity depends in part upon cash flow from
operations of its properties, expenditures for tenant improvements and
leasing commissions in connection with the leasing of vacant space.
During the six months ended June 30, 1995, all of the Partnership's
property investments generated positive cash flow from operations, and
it is anticipated that they will continue to do so.

During the six months ended June 30, 1995, the Partnership's cash flow
from operations and distributions from joint ventures exceeded
distributions to investors and capital expenditures. 

Countrywide Credit Industries, Inc., the largest tenant at Pasadena
Financial Center, is consolidating its operations in Pasadena,  and the
partnership which owns the property has agreed to a restructuring of its
lease with Countrywide.  Effective January 1, 1995, Countrywide was
allowed to give back approximately 35% of the space it leased, and its
base rent was slightly reduced on its remaining space (approximately 36%
of the property) over the next six years, in exchange for an extension
of the lease term on the remaining space for ten years, to September
2011.  The Partnership completed this restructuring without incurring any
new tenant improvement obligations on the space, and at below-market
leasing commission rates.  After 2004, rents will increase ten percent
for the remainder of the lease term.  Considering the current market and
economic conditions in Pasadena, CA, as discussed below under Operations,
and the credit-worthiness of Countrywide, the Managing General Partner
considers the terms of the new agreement favorable.  The cash flow from
this property is expected to be stable for a total of sixteen years at
a higher level than comparable current market rents.

Pasadena Financial Center has experienced damage to the exterior walls. 
The Partnership's share of the costs to repair such damage is anticipated
to exceed $420,000; the repair work is expected to begin in the third
quarter of 1995.  The partnership which owns the property does not expect
to receive any insurance proceeds for this damage; however, in 1994, it
initiated a lawsuit against the original building contractor and
architect to seek recovery of these costs.  The Partnership also expects
to fund $238,000 at Pasadena Financial Center to upgrade the building's
fire/life safety system, elevators, main lobby and entrance.

At the Chesterbrook property, the Vanguard Group will vacate its
remaining space upon the expiration of its leases in November 1995. 
During the six months ended June 30, 1995, the Partnership contributed
approximately $679,000 for its share of capital expenditures needed to
re-lease a significant portion of vacant space at the Chesterbrook
property.

During the remainder of 1995, the Partnership expects to fund significant
capital expenditures in order to attract new tenants to vacant space at
the Chesterbrook property and Pasadena Financial Center, and to
contribute approximately $180,000, its share of planned building
improvements, to the Taxter joint venture. 

The Partnership expects that for the remainder of 1995, capital
expenditures and cash distributions will be funded from operating cash
flows, distributions from joint ventures and existing cash reserves.  

On July 28, 1995, the Partnership paid the second quarter distribution
of $5.00 per Unit to the Limited Partners.  The total cash distribution
amounted to $1,691,317, with $1,522,185 distributed to the Limited
Partners and $169,132 to the General Partners.

Operations

Fluctuations in the Partnership's operating results for the six and
three-month periods ended June 30, 1995 compared to 1994 are primarily
attributable to the following:

The decreases in rental income are primarily due to the above-mentioned
restructuring of the lease with Countrywide at Pasadena Financial Center.

The decreases in equity in earnings of joint ventures are primarily due
to increased depreciation and amortization expenses which result from
increased capital expenditures at the Chesterbrook property.  These
decreases are partially offset by increased rental income at the
Chesterbrook property.  

The decreases in property operating expenses are primarily due to
decreased costs incurred at Pasadena Financial Center.  

Depreciation expense decreased because there has been no depreciation on
the tenant improvements on the space at Pasadena Financial Center which
Countrywide gave back effective January 1, 1995.  These assets were
written-off by the Partnership in 1994.

A summary of the markets in which the Partnership's office properties are
located and the performance of each property is as follows:

Chesterbrook Corporate Center is located in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania,
a market in which the vacancy rate is approximately 14%.  At June 30,
1995, occupancy at the property was 93% (including two tenants who moved
into its space in the third quarter of 1995).  Vanguard has been vacating
its space to move into its own newly-constructed space in this market. 
This, and other new construction in the Valley Forge area, will likely
cause the office market to deteriorate further.  Leases totaling 14% of
the space are scheduled to expire during the remainder of 1995 and in
1996.

The office market in Westchester County, New York, the location of Taxter
Corporate Park, has a current vacancy level of approximately 22%.  It is
unlikely that this vacant space will be absorbed in the market for
several years.  However, during the second quarter of 1995, average
occupancy at the property remained stable at 99%.  Leases covering 21%
of the property's space expire in 1996.
   
The Reston market in Virginia, the location of Tech Park Reston, has a
vacancy rate of 16% due to the contraction of the high-tech and defense
firms which are the major tenants in the market.  The leases with Sprint
Communications, which occupies 100% of the space, expire in 2003. Sprint
has the option to terminate its leases on two of the three buildings
beginning in 1997 and 1998.

In Pasadena, California, the location of Pasadena Financial Center, the
office market overall vacancy rate is approximately 15%, and it is
expected to deteriorate in the near term, primarily as a result of the
downsizing of large employers in the market.  At June 30, 1995, occupancy
at the property was approximately 91% (including one tenant who moved
into its space in the third quarter of 1995).  No significant leases are
scheduled to expire in the near future.

Inflation

Inflation has been consistently low during the periods presented in the
financial statements and, as a result, has not had a significant effect
on the operations of the Partnership or its properties.
