position as of September 30, 1997, its  results of operations
for the  three and nine  months ended September 30,  1997 and

   Item 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION  AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

   Management s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results  of
   Operations contains  forward-looking statements including  those concerning
   Management s expectations  regarding the future financial  performance  and
   future events.   These forward-looking statements  involve significant risk
   and uncertainties,  including those described  herein.  Actual  results may
   differ   materially  from   those   anticipated  by   such  forward-looking
   statements.

   Liquidity and Capital Resources

   The most  significant demand on the  Partnership s liquidity are
   quarterly distributions  paid to  investors of approximately  $3.9 million.
   Funds used for  investor distributions come from  interest received on  the
   PIMs, MBS,  cash  and  cash  equivalents net  of  operating  expenses,  and
   principal collections received on the PIMs and MBS.   The Partnership funds
   a  portion  of the  distributions  from principal  collections  causing the
   capital  resources of  the  Partnership to  continually decrease.    As the
   capital resources decrease,  the total cash inflows to the Partnership will
   also decrease which  will result in periodic  adjustments to the  quarterly
   distributions paid to investors.

    The General Partners  periodically review the  distribution rate
   to  determine whether an adjustment is  necessary based on projected future
   cash  flows.  In  general, the General  Partners try to  set a distribution
   rate that provides  for level quarterly distributions of cash available for
   distribution.   To the extent quarterly  distributions differ from the cash
   available for distribution the General Partners may adjust the distribution
   rate or distribute funds through a special distribution.

   On April 25, 1997, the Partnership  received prepayments of the Paces Arbor
   and  Paces  Forest  PIMs  that  included  the  outstanding  first  mortgage
   principal balance, a prepayment penalty and all accrued additional interest
   earned   through  the  payoff  date.     The  Partnership  made  a  special
   distribution of the capital proceeds from these transactions, principal and
   prepayment penalties, of $.65 per limited partner interest in May.

   The  General Partners expect that the  Partnership can maintain the current
   quarterly distribution  rate of $.30  per limited partner  interest through
   1997.  However,  if additional PIMs are prepaid, the quarterly distribution
   rate  in the future may be adjusted  downward to reflect fewer cash inflows
   from the remaining mortgage investments.   In the event additional PIMs are
   prepaid, the Partnership  will make special distributions from  the capital
   proceeds of the prepayments.

   A  number  of  borrowers  have  informed  the  General  Partners  of  their
   intentions to prepay the Partnership s PIMs.  The owner of three properties
   in the portfolio, the Paddock properties in Florida, expects to payoff each
   PIM in November 1997 as a result of a merger transaction with a NYSE-listed
   real estate investment trust.  If the Paddocks transaction is finalized  as
   expected,  the  Partnership will  receive  a  principal repayment  totaling
   approximately $27 million.  The borrower on the Meredith Square PIM expects
   to close  a refinance  of  the property  in December  1997  and payoff  the
   outstanding  balance on  the  first mortgage  loan.   The  Partnership will
   receive a principal repayment of approximately $4.7 million if the Meredith

                                       -10-
<PAGE>


   Square transaction  is finalized.   In  addition  to the  repayment of  the
   principal balances of these  four PIMs, the Partnership will  also received
   accrued additional interest earned on each property s operations and either
   the greater of a 9% prepayment penalty or additional interest earned on the
   appreciation in each property s value.

   Three other borrowers have indicated there is a possibility they may payoff
   the Partnership s PIMs.   A  sale transaction of  Rosewood Apartments  fell
   through earlier  in 1997, but the  PIM could be prepaid if  the borrower is
   successful in obtaining another purchase  offer.  The owner of Fourth  Ward
   Square has notified the General Partners of his intention to  refinance the
   property and  payoff the  Partnership s PIM.    The new  owner of  Sundance
   Apartments, who purchased the  property during the second quarter  1997 and
   assumed  the Partnership s  PIM and  modified subordinated  Promissory Note
   from  the  original  borrower, has  indicated  that  he  may refinance  the
   property and  payoff the  Partnership s  PIM after  he stabilizes  property
   operations.

   If any or all of these transactions occur, the General Partners will review
   the  anticipated cash  flows  from the  remaining  mortgage investments  to
   determine whether  the current  distribution rate would  be sustainable  or
   whether  an adjustment  would  be  necessary.    If  the  General  Partners
   determine  that the distribution rate  needs to be  adjusted, the timing of
   the adjustment would depend on when these PIMs prepay.
             
   For  the  first  five  years  of  the  PIMs  the  borrowers  are
   prohibited from prepaying.   For the  second five  years, the borrower  can
   prepay the loan incurring   a prepayment penalty.  The Partnership  has the
   option to call certain PIMs by accelerating their maturity if the loans are
   not  prepaid by  the tenth year  after permanent funding.   The Partnership
   will  determine the merits  of exercising the  call option for  each PIM as
   economic conditions warrant.   Such factors as the condition  of the asset,
   local market conditions,  interest rates and available  financing will have
   and impact on this decision. 

   Assessment of Credit Risk

              The Partnership's  investments  in mortgages  are guaranteed  or
   insured by the Federal National Mortgage Association ( FNMA ),  the Federal
   Home Loan Mortgage Corporation  ( FHLMC ), the Government National Mortgage
   Association ( GNMA ) and  the Department of  Housing and Urban  Development
   ( HUD ) and therefore  the  certainty of  their cash flows and  the risk of
   material  loss of the amounts  invested depends on  the creditworthiness of
   these entities.

              FNMA  is   a  federally   chartered  private   corporation  that
   guarantees obligations originated under its programs.  FHLMC is a federally
   chartered  corporation that  guarantees  obligations  originated under  its
   programs and  is wholly-owned by the twelve Federal Home Loan Banks.  These
   obligations are not guaranteed by the U.S.  Government or  the Federal Home
   Loan Bank Board.  GNMA guarantees  the full and timely payment of principal
   and basic interest on  the securities it issues, which  represent interests
   in pooled mortgages insured by HUD.  Obligations insured by  HUD, an agency
   of the U.S. Government, are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S.
   Government.

   Operations

   The  following  discussion  relates  to the  operations  of  the
   Partnership during the three and nine  months ended September 30, 1997  and
   1996.

      Net  income decreased by $869,341  for the three  months ended September
   30,  1997  as compared  to the  same  period in  1996, due  primarily  to a
   $1,095,619 reduction in participation  income. However, the Partnership did
   receive $183,527  of participation from  three properties during  the third
   quarter of 1997.  Base interest income on PIMs decreased by $237,328 in the
   third  quarter  of 1997  as  compared  to the  third  quarter  of 1996  due
   primarily to the  prepayment of the  Friendly Hills, Paces Arbor  and Paces
   Forest  PIM s.  Interest  income on MBS  decreased by $36,783  in the third
   quarter of  1997 as  compared  to the  third quarter  of  1996, because  of
   principal collections from the Partnership s MBS investments.  Amortization
   expense decreased by $475,867 due to the prepayments of Friendly Hills  PIM
   in August 1996 and Paces Arbor and Paces Forest PIM s in April 1997.

      Net income decreased by $563,457 for the nine months ended September 30, 
   1997  as  compared to  same  period in  1996  due primarily  to  lower base
   interest income on  PIMs and interest income on MBS  and higher general and
   administrative expenses. These  decreases were offset in part  by increases
   in  participation  interest  income,   interest  income  on  cash and  cash
   equivalents  and decreases  in asset  management fees  and amortization  of
   prepaid  expense and  fees.   The  decrease in  base  interest of  $872,329
   resulted  primarily from the prepayments of the Friendly Hills, Paces Arbor
   and Paces Forest PIM s.   In addition, the prepayments the  Partnership has
   experienced also caused decreases in  asset managements and amortization of
   prepaid expense and fees.
