NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)


   In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements
contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Partnership's financial
position as of March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996 and the results of its
operations, its cash flows and changes in partners' capital (deficit) for the
interim periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996.  These adjustments are of a
normal recurring nature.

   See notes to financial statements included in the Partnership's 1996 Annual
Report on Form 10-K for additional information relating to the Partnership's
financial statements.


NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
- ----------------------------------

   Copley Realty Income Partners 3; A Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") is
a Massachusetts limited partnership organized for the purpose of investing
primarily in newly-constructed and existing income-producing real properties.
It commenced operations in October 1988, and acquired the three real estate
investments it currently owns prior to the end of 1989.  It intends to dispose
of its investments within nine years of their acquisition, and then liquidate.


NOTE 2 - PROPERTY
- -----------------

   Effective January 1, 1996, the South Bay/CRIP 3 Associates joint venture was
restructured and the venture partner's ownership interest was assigned 99% to
the Partnership, and 1% to an affiliate of the Partnership.  Accordingly, as of
this date, the investment is being accounted for as a wholly-owned property.
The carrying value of the joint venture investment at conversion ($4,180,704)
was allocated to land, building and improvements, and other net operating
assets.

   The following is a summary of the Partnership's two investments in wholly-
owned property:

NOTE 4 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT
- -------------------------

  Distributions of cash from operations relating to the quarter ended March 31,
1997 were made on April 24, 1997 in the amount of $453,703 ($16.25 per limited
partnership unit).
<PAGE>
 
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 in June 1989 and a total of 27,641 units were sold.  The Partnership
received proceeds of $24,458,317, net of selling commissions and other offering
costs, which have been used for investment in real estate and to pay related
acquisition costs, or are being retained as working capital reserves.

      At March 31, 1997, the Partnership had $2,405,943 in cash, cash
equivalents, and short-term investments, of which $453,703 was used for cash
distributions to partners on April 24, 1997; the remainder is being retained for
working capital reserves. The source of future liquidity and cash distributions
to partners will be cash generated by the Partnership's real estate and short-
term investments. Distributions of cash from operations relating to the first
quarter of 1996 were made at the annualized rate of 6.0% on a capital
contribution of $1,000 per unit. The annualized distribution rate for the first
quarter of 1997 was 6.5%. The increase in the distribution rate this quarter is
the result of increased cash flow from Shasta Way.

      The carrying value of real estate investments in the financial statements
at March 31, 1997 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 costs of
sale for properties held for sale. Carrying value may be greater or less than
current appraised value. At March 31, 1997, the aggregate appraised value of the
Partnership's investments was approximately $2,300,000 greater than their
aggregate carrying value. The current appraised value of real estate investments
has been estimated by the managing general partner and is generally based on a
combination of traditional appraisal approaches performed by the Partnership's
advisor and independent appraisers. Because of the subjectivity inherent in the
valuation process, the 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 Brea West and South Bay investments are wholly-owned properties. The
South Bay investment was structured as a joint venture with a real estate
management/development firm. Effective January 1, 1996, however, the venture was
restructured and the venture partner's ownership interest was assigned to the
Partnership and to an affiliate of the Partnership. Accordingly, as of that
date, this investment has been accounted for as a wholly-owned property. The
Shasta Way investment had been structured as a joint venture with a real estate
management/development firm and an affiliate of the Partnership. As of January
1, 1996, the ownership was restructured, and the management/development firm's
interest was assigned to the Partnership and its affiliate in proportion to
their respective ownership interests. The Partnership's ownership percentage
increased to 58%.
<PAGE>
 
      Operating Factors

      The South Bay property is 100% leased to a single tenant through
September, 2001. During 1994, the managing general partner determined that the
Partnership will likely not recover the carrying value of this investment over
the projected holding period. Accordingly, the carrying value was reduced to
estimated net realizable value, with a charge to operations of $2,400,000.

      The Brea West and the Shasta Way properties are also 100% leased to single
tenants under long-term leases.

      Investment Results

      Interest earned on cash equivalents and short-term investments for the
first quarter of 1997 increased by approximately $2,000, or 9%, as compared to
the same period in 1996 due to higher average invested balances.

      Total real estate operations decreased by approximately $29,000, or 9%,
for the first three months of 1997 as compared to the comparable period of 1996.
Each of the three properties contributed to the decline.

      Net income decreased by approximately $39,000 between the first three
months of 1996 and 1997, while cash provided by operations increased by
approximately $78,000. The difference is primarily due to the timing of cash
distributions from Shasta Way.

      Portfolio Expenses

      General and administrative expenses primarily consist of real estate
appraisal, legal, printing, accounting and servicing agent fees.  These expenses
increased approximately $9,000, or 34% between the first three months of 1996
and 1997, primarily due to an increase in accounting fees.

      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.  Management fees increased between
the two three-month periods due to the increase in distributable cash flow.
