                                    PART I


ITEM 1.  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

  United Investors Income Properties (the "Registrant" or "Partnership"), a
Missouri Limited Partnership, was organized as a limited partnership under the
laws of the State of Missouri pursuant to a Certificate of Limited Partnership
filed on June 23, 1988, with the Missouri Secretary of State.  The Registrant is
governed by an Agreement of Limited Partnership dated July 27, 1988.  United
Investors Real Estate, Inc., a Delaware corporation, is the sole general partner
(the "General Partner") of the Registrant.  The Registrant is engaged in the
business of acquiring and operating multifamily residential and commercial
properties and other income producing real estate.  The Registrant has acquired
three multifamily residential properties, a medical office building, and an
interest in a joint venture which owns a medical office building.  These
properties are further described in "Item 2" below.

  Commencing on or about May 4, 1988, the Registrant began offering through
Waddell & Reed, Inc., a former affiliate of the Registrant (the "Selling
Agent"), up to a maximum of 80,000 Units of limited partnership interest (the
"Units") at $250 per Unit with a minimum required purchase of eight Units or
$2,000 (four Units or $1,000 for an Individual Retirement Account).  Limited
partners (the "Limited Partners") are not required to make any additional
capital contributions.  The Units were registered under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Act"), under Registration Statement No. 33-20350, which
Registration Statement was declared effective on May 4, 1988.

  The offering of Units terminated May 4, 1990.  Upon termination of the
offering, the Registrant had accepted subscriptions for 61,063 Units resulting
in Gross Offering Proceeds of $15,265,750.

  The real estate business is highly competitive.  The Registrant's real
property investments are subject to competition from similar types of properties
in the vicinities in which they are located.  The Partnership is not a
significant factor in its industry.  In addition, various limited partnerships
have been formed by related parties to engage in businesses which may be
competitive with the Registrant.

  The Registrant has no employees.  Management and administrative services are
performed by affiliates of Insignia Financial Group, Inc., "Insignia".  The
property manager is responsible for the day-to-day operations of each property.
The General Partner has also selected affiliates of Insignia to provide real
estate advisory and asset management services to the Partnership.  As advisor,
these affiliates provide all partnership accounting and administrative services,
investment management, and supervisory services over property management and
leasing.  For a further discussion of the property and partnership management,
see "Item 12," which descriptions are herein incorporated by reference.

</TABLE>


  As noted under "Item 1. Description of Business," the real estate industry is
highly competitive.  All of the properties of the Partnership are subject to
competition from other residential apartment complexes and commercial buildings
in the localities in which they operate.  The General Partner believes that all
of the properties are adequately insured.  The multi-family residential
properties' lease terms are for one year or less and no residential tenant
leases 10% or more of the available rental space.

  The following is a schedule of the lease expirations at Peachtree Corners
Medical Building for the years 1997-2006:

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

  The Registrant is unaware of any pending or outstanding litigation that is not
of a routine nature.  The General Partner of the Registrant believes that all
such pending or outstanding litigation will be resolved without a material
adverse effect upon the business, financial condition, or operations of the
Partnership.

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

  During the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996, no
matters were submitted to a vote of Unit holders through the solicitation of
proxies or otherwise.

                                      PART II


ITEM 5.  MARKET FOR PARTNERSHIP EQUITY AND RELATED PARTNER MATTERS

  At December 31, 1996, the number of holders of record of Limited Partnership
Units was 1,890.  No public trading market has developed for the Units and it is
not anticipated that such a market will develop in the future.

  The partnership agreement for the Partnership contains a provision which
states that the General Partner shall purchase up to 10% of the limited
partnership Units outstanding at the fifth anniversary date of the last
Additional Closing Date and become a limited partner with respect to such units.
Pursuant to this provision, the General Partner accepted repurchase notices
representing approximately 1.5% of the limited partnership Units and during the
third quarter of 1995 the transfer of 950 units was effected.

  The Partnership made distributions of cash generated from operations of
approximately $617,000 and $656,000 during the years ended December 31, 1996 and
1995, respectively.  Further distributions will depend on the levels of cash
generated from operations and the availability of cash reserves.


ITEM 6.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

  The Partnership realized net income of $475,000 for the year ended December
31, 1996, compared to $299,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995.  The
increase in net income is primarily due to an increase in rental income 
resulting from increased rental rates at Bronson Place and Defoors Crossing.  
Also contributing to increased rental income was the significant increase in 
occupancy at Peachtree Corners Medical Building.

  Total expenses also decreased due to a decrease in maintenance expenses
resulting from exterior painting projects at Bronson Place, Defoors Crossing and
Meadow Wood Apartments during 1995.  Included in maintenance expense during 1996
is approximately $26,000 of major repairs and maintenance comprised primarily of
exterior building repairs and parking lot repairs.  Joint Venture income
decreased in 1996 because of increased operating costs.

  As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the General Partner
monitors the rental market environment of its investment properties to assess 
the feasibility of increasing rents, maintaining or increasing occupancy levels 
and protecting the Partnership from increases in expense.  Due to changing 
market conditions, which can result in the use of rental concessions and rental
reductions to offset softening market conditions, there is no guarantee that the
General Partner will be able to sustain such a plan.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

  At December 31, 1996, the Partnership held unrestricted cash of $633,000
compared to $637,000 at December 31, 1995.  Net cash provided by operating
activities increased as a result of increased rental income and decreased
maintenance expense as discussed above. Net cash used in financing activities
decreased in 1996 due to a decrease in distributions made to partners during 
1996 compared to 1995.

  The sufficiency of existing liquid assets to meet future liquidity and capital
expenditure requirements is directly related to the level of capital 
expenditures required at the property to adequately maintain the physical assets
and other operating needs of the Partnership.  Such assets are currently thought
to be sufficient for any near-term needs of the Partnership.  Future cash 
distributions will depend on the levels of net cash generated from operations, 
property sales, and the availability of cash reserves.  Distributions to 
partners of $617,000 were made during 1996 compared to distributions of $656,000
made during 1995.

United Investors Income Properties
(A Missouri Limited Partnership)

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of United Investors Income
Properties (A Missouri Limited Partnership) ("the Partnership") as of December
31, 1996, and the related statements of operations, changes in partners' capital
(deficit), and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December
31, 1996.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Partnership's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain 
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of the Partnership as of December 31, 1996 and
the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in 
the period ended December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted

                               NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                   (December 31, 1996)

NOTE A - ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization: United Investors Income Properties (the "Partnership"), a
Missouri Limited Partnership, was organized in June 1988, with the initial
group of limited partners being admitted on July 27, 1988.  Additional
partners were admitted through May 1990.

The Partnership was formed to acquire and operate certain types of income-
producing real estate.  United Investors Real Estate, Inc. (the "General
Partner") is the general partner.  Effective December 31, 1992, 100% of the
General Partner's common stock was purchased by MAE GP Corporation, an
affiliate of Insignia Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia").

Basis of accounting: The accompanying financial statements of the Partnership
are prepared on the accrual basis and, therefore, revenue is recorded as
earned and costs and expenses are recorded as incurred.

Cash:

    Unrestricted - Unrestricted cash includes cash on hand and in banks and
money market funds and certificates of deposit with original maturities of
three months or less.

    Restricted cash - tenant security deposits - The Partnership requires
security deposits from lessees for the duration of the lease with such
deposits being considered restricted cash.  Deposits are refunded when the
tenant vacates, provided the tenant has not damaged its space and is current
on its rental payments.

Income taxes:  For income tax purposes, the Partnership reports revenue and
costs and expenses on the accrual method.  No income tax provision has been
shown in the accompanying statements of operations since the partners are
taxed individually.

Investment properties:  During 1995, the Partnership adopted "FASB No. 121,
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets
to be Disposed Of," which requires impairment losses to be recognized for
long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present
and the undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover the assets'
carrying amount. The impairment loss is measured by comparing the fair value
of the asset to its carrying amount.  The adoption of "FASB No. 121" had no
effect on the Partnership's financial statements.

Depreciation is computed using accelerated and straight-line methods over
estimated useful lives of fifteen to forty years for buildings and improvements
and five to twelve years for furniture and fixtures.  Commercial tenant
improvements are depreciated over the term of the respective lease.

Fair Value:  In 1995, the Partnership implemented "Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial
Instruments," which requires disclosure of fair value information about
financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate the value.  The
carrying amounts of all financial instruments approximate fair value due to
short maturities.

Other Assets:  Included in other assets is deferred rental income and leasing
commissions which are amortized over the life of the related lease.

Use of Estimates:  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Advertising:  The Partnership expenses the costs of advertising as incurred.
Advertising expense, included in operating expenses, was $31,000 and $28,000 for
the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

Reclassifications:  Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1995
information to conform to the 1996 presentation.

NOTE B - INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURE

The Partnership owns a 35% interest in Corinth Square ("Corinth"), a joint
venture with United Investors Income Properties II, an affiliated partnership in
which the General Partner is also the sole general partner. The joint venture
owns a 23,149 square foot medical office building located in Prairie Village,
Kansas.

Condensed balance sheet information for Corinth at December 31, 1996, is as
follows (dollar amounts in thousands):

NOTE C - PARTNERS' CAPITAL

ALLOCATIONS OF PROFITS AND LOSSES: In accordance with the partnership agreement,
all profits and losses are to be allocated 1% to the General Partner and 99% to
the limited partners.

DISTRIBUTIONS: The Partnership allocates distributions 1% to the General Partner
and 99% to the limited partners.  On February 14, 1997, the Partnership paid a
distribution to the partners of $154,000.

REPURCHASE OF UNITS:  The partnership agreement for the Partnership contains a
provision which states that the General Partner shall purchase up to 10% of the
limited partnership Units outstanding at the fifth anniversary date of the last
Additional Closing Date and become a limited partner with respect to such units.
Pursuant to this provision, the General Partner accepted repurchase notices
representing approximately 1.5% of the limited partnership Units and during the
third quarter of 1995 the transfer of 950 units was effected.


NOTE D - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED PARTIES
(dollar amounts in thousands)

The Partnership has no employees and is dependent on the General Partner and its
affiliates for the management and administration of all partnership activities.
The partnership agreement provides for payments to affiliates for services 
(based on a percentage of revenue) and for reimbursement of certain expenses 
incurred by affiliates on behalf of the Partnership.  Property management fees 
are included in operating expenses.  The following payments were made to 
affiliates of the General Partner in 1996 and 1995:

                                                         1996           1995

  Property management fees                               $ 82           $ 78
  Reimbursement for services of affiliates                 32             30


The Partnership insures its properties under a master policy through an agency
and insurer unaffiliated with the General Partner.  An affiliate of the General
Partner acquired, in the acquisition of a business, certain financial 
obligations from an insurance agency which was later acquired by the agent who 
placed the current year's master policy.  The current agent assumed the 
financial obligations to the affiliate of the General Partner who receives 
payments on these obligations from the agent. The amount of the Partnership's 
insurance premiums accruing to the benefit of the affiliate of the General 
Partner by virtue of the agent's obligations is not significant.

NOTE E - OPERATING LEASES

Tenants of Peachtree Corners Medical Building are responsible for their own
utilities, maintenance of their space and payment of their proportionate share 
of common area maintenance, utilities, insurance and real estate taxes.  The 
real estate taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance expenses are paid 
directly by the Partnership. The Partnership is then reimbursed by the tenants 
for their proportionate share.

The future minimum rental payments to be received under operating leases that
have initial or remaining noncancellable lease terms in excess of one year, as 
of December 31, 1996, are as follows (in thousands):
