                                  July 16, 1999

Dear Limited Partner:

         You should have recently received a letter from Bond Purchase, L.L.C.
("Bond") asking you if you "Are wondering what is going on?"

         HERE IS WHAT IS GOING ON. At this point you should have received two
offers to purchase your limited partnership interest ("Units") in United
Investors Growth Properties I (the "Partnership"). One offer is from an
affiliate of the general partner of the Partnership, AIMCO Properties, L.P.
("AIMCO"), and the other offer is from Bond. The following table summarizes the
two offers:


<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
                                                AIMCO Offer                            Bond Offer

<S>                                 <C>                                       <C>
Purchase Price:                     $77.  THAT IS IF YOU OWN 5 UNITS,         $75, less $100 per transfer.
                                    YOU WILL RECEIVE $385                     THAT IS, IF YOU OWN 5 UNITS,
                                                                              YOU WILL RECEIVE $275

Number of Units Sought:             15,930.68 Units                           A maximum of 500 Units

Taxable Transaction:                Yes                                       Yes

Expiration Date of Offer:           July 30, 1999, unless extended            July 30, 1999 unless extended
</TABLE>

         HERE IS WHAT IS GOING ON. One offer, the AIMCO Offer, provides detailed
information relating to the Partnership's properties and operations. One offer,
the Bond Offer, is a two page generic document which provides no information
regarding the Partnership's properties and its operations.

         HERE IS WHAT IS GOING ON. The Partnership is required by the rules of
the Securities and Exchange Commission to make a recommendation whether you
should accept or reject AIMCO's Offer and/or Bonds' Offer, or whether the
Partnership is remaining neutral with respect to one or both of the Offers. Due
to its affiliation with AIMCO, the Partnership making no recommendation and is
remaining neutral as to whether limited partners should tender their Units
pursuant to the Offers. The Partnership does believe, however, that Limited
Partners who desire to presently liquidate their interest in the Partnership
should tender their Units for the greatest purchase price available.

         If you previously tendered your Units and desire to withdraw your
tender, you may do so by forwarding a Notice of Withdrawal to the appropriate
party. Please note that you may only withdraw your tender of Units in the
current Offers. Any Units tendered in previous tenders and accepted for payment
may not be withdrawn.

         If you have any questions, please contact Corporate Investor
Communications at (877) 460-2557.

                                   Sincerely,
