          Fellow Partner:

          We have just completed our year-end valuations and set the
          distributions for February 14.  We are writing because this
          information may have a material impact on the value to you of the
          tender offer from Lido Associates.  As T. Rowe Price Realty
          Income Fund I investors know, the September 30, 1996, estimated
          unit valuation of that fund increased from the prior fiscal year. 
          We are pleased to report that estimated valuations for Realty
          Income Funds II, III, and IV have also increased.  The table
          below summarizes the effect these unit valuations and
          distributions have on the Lido offers.

          Item 5.  Other Events

          At the end of 1996 T. Rowe Price Realty Income Fund IV, America's
          Sales-Commission-Free  Real   Estate  Limited   Partnership  (the
          "Partnership") conducted its  annual formal unit valuation.   The
          valuation of the  Partnership's properties  was performed by  the
          General Partner, and then reviewed by an independent professional
          appraiser.    The estimated  value  of limited  partnership units
          resulting from this process is $31.05 per unit.  A $0.75 per unit
          distribution for the December 1996 quarter representing operating
          cash flows will be made on or about February 14, 1997  to limited
          partners   of  record   on  December  31,   1996.     After  this
          distribution, the estimated  value is $30.30 per unit.   There is
          no assurance  that units  can be sold  at a  price equal  to this
          estimated   value,  and   this  valuation   is  not   necessarily
          representative of  the value of  the units  when the  Partnership
          ultimately liquidates its holdings.
