Note 3 - Property
- -----------------

     On September 29, 1997, Stemmons Industrial located in Farmers Branch, Texas
was sold.  The total sales price was $4,500,000.  The Partnership received net
proceeds of $4,334,193, after closing costs, and recognized a gain of $248,172
($5.04 per limited partnership unit).  A disposition fee of $135,000 was accrued
but not paid to the Advisor.  On October 30, 1997, the Partnership made a
capital distribution of $4,334,326 ($88.84 per limited partnership unit) from
the proceeds of the sale.

     During the second quarter of 1995, as a result of a revision to long-term
rental assumptions, the managing general partner determined that the carrying
value of the Wilmington Industrial property would not be recovered through
expected future undiscounted cash flows. Accordingly, the carrying value was
reduced to the estimated net fair market value through the recognition of an
investment valuation allowance of $1,500,000.

Note 4 - Subsequent Event
- -------------------------

     Distributions of cash from operations relating to the quarter ended
September 30, 1997 were made on October 30, 1997 in the aggregate amount of
$520,898 ($10.57 per limited partnership unit).  An additional distribution of
cash from operations was made in the aggregate amount of $738,227 ($14.98 per
limited partnership unit), representing excess operating cash previously
retained in working capital reserves.

     Additionally, the Partnership made two capital distributions, $4,334,326
($88.84 per limited partnership unit) was made from proceeds from the sale of
Stemmons Industrial and $968,442 ($19.85 per limited partnership unit) was made
from accumulated cash reserves.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
- ---------------------------------------------------------------
Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

     The Partnership completed its offering of units of limited partnership
interest on December 31, 1988.  A total of 48,788 units were sold.  The
Partnership received proceeds of $43,472,858, net of selling commissions and
other offering costs, which have been used for investment in real estate and for
the payment of related acquisition costs, or retained as working capital
reserves.  The Partnership made seven real estate investments; one was sold in
each of 1990, 1994, and 1997.  As a result of these sales, capital of
$11,271,004 has been returned to the limited partners ($231.02 per limited
partnership unit) through September 30, 1997.  On October 30, 1997, the
Partnership distributed total capital of $5,302,768 ($108.69 per limited
partnership unit) which represents proceeds from the sale of Stemmons Industrial
and a reduction of accumulated cash reserves.  This capital distribution reduces
the adjusted capital contribution to $660.29 per unit.

     On September 29, 1997, Stemmons Industrial located in Farmers Branch, Texas
was sold.  The total sales price was $4,500,000.  The Partnership received net 
proceeds of $4,334,193, after closing costs, and recognized a gain of $248,172 
($5.04 per limited partnership unit). A disposition fee of $135,000 was accrued 
but not paid to the Advisor. 

     At September 30, 1997, the Partnership had $9,528,256 in cash, cash
equivalents and short-term investments, of which $1,259,125 was used for
operating cash distributions, and $5,302,768 for capital distributions to
partners on October 30, 1997; the remainder is being retained as working capital
reserves. The source of future liquidity and cash distributions to partners will
primarily be cash flow generated by the Partnership's short-term and real estate
investments and proceeds from the sale of such investments. Based on an adjusted
capital contribution of $768.98 per limited partnership unit, distributions of
cash from operations relating to the first, second and third quarters of 1997
and 1996 were made at the annualized rate of 5.5%.

     The carrying value of real estate investments in the financial statements
is at depreciated cost, or if the investment's carrying value is determined not
to be recoverable through expected undiscounted future cash flows, the carrying
value is reduced to estimated fair market value. The fair market value of such
investments is further reduced by the estimated cost of sale for properties held
for sale. Carrying value may be greater or less than current appraised value. At
September 30, 1997, the appraised value of each of the Partnership's investments
exceeded its related carrying value by an aggregate of $6,400,000. The current
appraised value of real estate investments has been estimated by the managing
general partner and is generally based on a correlation of traditional appraisal
approaches performed by the Partnership's Advisor and independent appraisers.
Because of the subjectivity inherent in the valuation process, the estimated
current appraised value may differ significantly from that which could be
realized if the real estate were actually offered for sale in the marketplace.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

     Form of Real Estate Investments

     The Wilmington Industrial investment is a wholly-owned property.  The
Stemmons Industrial investment, which was sold in September 1997, was also a
wholly-owned property.  The other three real estate investments in the portfolio
are joint ventures.

     Operating Factors

     The Partnership's three industrial properties (Prentiss Copystar,
Wilmington and White Phonic) were 100% leased at September 30, 1997, as they
were at September 30, 1996. Wilmington was 73% leased at June 30, 1996.

     As discussed above, the Partnership sold its Stemmons Industrial
investment on September 29, 1997, and recognized a gain of $248,172.  Stemmons
Industrial was vacant at the time of sale, as it had been since February 1996,
with the expiration of a short term lease for 82% of the space.

     Occupancy at Waterford Apartments, the Partnership's multi-family
residential property, remained in the mid 90% range during the first nine months
of 1997, which is consistent with the prior year.


Investment Results
- ------------------

     Interest income on cash equivalents and short-term investments increased
slightly between the first nine months of 1996 and 1997, due primarily to higher
average investment balances.

     Exclusive of the results from Stemmons Industrial of $(158,557) in 1997 and
$(192,983) in 1996, as well as the gain on sale in 1997, total real estate
activity for the first nine months of 1997 was $1,267,713, an increase from
$1,073,030 for the comparable period of 1996. Operating results at Waterford
Apartments increased by $114,000 primarily due to higher rental rates combined
with a decrease in depreciation expense related to personal property that became
fully depreciated. Operating results at Prentiss also improved, by approximately
$36,000, due to a reduction in real estate taxes combined with a decrease in
amortization expense related to leasing commissions that became fully amortized.
In addition, operating income at Wilmington improved $24,000 primarily due to
higher average occupancy during the first nine months of 1997 as compared to
1996.

     Cash flow from operations increased by approximately $59,000 between the
first nine months of 1996 and 1997. This increase is primarily attributable to
changes in working capital offset by the timing of distributions from White
Phonic.

                                       11
<PAGE>
 
     Portfolio Expenses

     The Partnership management fee is 9% of distributable cash flow from
operations after any increase or decrease in working capital reserves as
determined by the managing general partner.  General and administrative expenses
consist primarily of real estate appraisal, printing, legal, accounting and
investor servicing fees.

     The Partnership management fee increased between the first nine months of
1996 and 1997 due to an increase in the distributable cash flow.  General and
administrative expenses were relatively unchanged during the comparative nine
month periods.
