                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                
                         MARCH 31, 1996
                                
                           (Unaudited)
                                

(1)  The  condensed  statements included herein have been  prepared
     by  the Partnership, without audit, pursuant to the rules  and
     regulations  of  the Securities and Exchange  Commission,  and
     reflect   all  adjustments  which  are,  in  the  opinion   of
     management,  necessary to a fair statement of the  results  of
     operations for the interim period, on a basis consistent  with
     the  annual audited statements.  The adjustments made to these
     condensed   statements  consist  only  of   normal   recurring
     adjustments.   Certain information, accounting  policies,  and
     footnote    disclosures   normally   included   in   financial
     statements  prepared  in  accordance with  generally  accepted
     accounting principles have been condensed or omitted  pursuant
     to  such  rules  and  regulations,  although  the  Partnership
     believes  that  the  disclosures  are  adequate  to  make  the
     information  presented not misleading.  It is  suggested  that
     these  condensed financial statements be read  in  conjunction
     with  the  financial statements and the summary of significant
     accounting  policies  and  notes  thereto  included   in   the
     Partnership's latest annual report on Form 10-KSB.
 
(2)  Organization -
  
     AEI Real Estate Fund XVIII Limited Partnership (Partnership)
     was  formed  to  acquire and lease commercial properties  to
     operating tenants.  The Partnership's operations are managed
     by  AEI  Fund  Management XVIII, Inc.  (AFM),  the  Managing
     General Partner of the Partnership.  Robert P. Johnson,  the
     President  and  sole  shareholder  of  AFM,  serves  as  the
     Individual General Partner of the Partnership.  An affiliate
     of   AFM,   AEI   Fund   Management,  Inc.,   performs   the
     administrative and operating functions for the Partnership.
     
     The   terms   of  the  Partnership  offering  call   for   a
     subscription  price of $1,000 per Limited Partnership  Unit,
     payable   on  acceptance  of  the  offer.   The  Partnership
     commenced  operations  on February  15,  1989  when  minimum
     subscriptions    of   1,500   Limited   Partnership    Units
     ($1,500,000)  were  accepted.   The  Partnership's  offering
     terminated  December  4,  1990 when  the  extended  offering
     period expired.  The Partnership received subscriptions  for
     22,783.05 Limited Partnership Units ($22,783,050).
     
     Under  the  terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement,  the
     Limited  Partners and General Partners contributed funds  of
     $22,783,050, and $1,000, respectively.  During the operation
     of the Partnership, any Net Cash Flow, as defined, which the
     General Partners determine to distribute will be distributed
     90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the General Partners;
     provided,  however, that such distributions to  the  General
     Partners will be subordinated to the Limited Partners  first
     receiving an annual, noncumulative distribution of Net  Cash
     Flow equal to 10% of their Adjusted Capital Contribution, as
     defined,  and, provided further, that in no event  will  the
     General Partners receive less than 1% of such Net Cash  Flow
     per  annum.  Distributions to Limited Partners will be  made
     pro rata by Units.

                           (Continued)
                                
(2)  Organization - (Continued)
  
     Any  Net  Proceeds  of Sale, as defined, from  the  sale  or
     financing of the Partnership's properties which the  General
     Partners determine to distribute will, after provisions  for
     debts  and  reserves, be paid in the following  manner:  (i)
     first,  99%  to the Limited Partners and 1% to  the  General
     Partners until the Limited Partners receive an amount  equal
     to:  (a)  their Adjusted Capital Contribution  plus  (b)  an
     amount  equal  to 6% of their Adjusted Capital  Contribution
     per  annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not
     previously distributed from Net Cash Flow; (ii) next, 99% to
     the  Limited  Partners and 1% to the General Partners  until
     the Limited Partners receive an amount equal to 14% of their
     Adjusted Capital Contribution per annum, cumulative but  not
     compounded, to the extent not previously distributed;  (iii)
     next, to the General Partners until cumulative distributions
     to the General Partners under Items (ii) and (iii) equal 15%
     of cumulative distributions to all Partners under Items (ii)
     and (iii).  Any remaining balance will be distributed 85% to
     the  Limited  Partners  and  15% to  the  General  Partners.
     Distributions to the Limited Partners will be made pro  rata
     by Units.
     
     For  tax  purposes,  profits  from  operations,  other  than
     profits  attributable  to  the  sale,  exchange,  financing,
     refinancing   or  other  disposition  of  the  Partnership's
     property,  will  be  allocated first in the  same  ratio  in
     which,  and  to the extent, Net Cash Flow is distributed  to
     the Partners for such year.  Any additional profits will  be
     allocated 90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the General
     Partners.   In the event no Net Cash Flow is distributed  to
     the  Limited  Partners,  90% of  each  item  of  Partnership
     income,  gain  or credit for each respective year  shall  be
     allocated to the Limited Partners, and 10% of each such item
     shall be allocated to the General Partners.  Net losses from
     operations will be allocated 98% to the Limited Partners and
     2% to the General Partners.
     
     For  tax purposes, profits arising from the sale, financing,
     or  other disposition of the Partnership's property will  be
     allocated  in  accordance with the Partnership Agreement  as
     follows:  (i) first, to those Partners with deficit balances
     in  their capital accounts in an amount equal to the sum  of
     such  deficit  balances; (ii) second,  99%  to  the  Limited
     Partners  and 1% to the General Partners until the aggregate
     balance in the Limited Partners' capital accounts equals the
     sum  of the Limited Partners' Adjusted Capital Contributions
     plus  an  amount  equal  to 14% of  their  Adjusted  Capital
     Contributions  per annum, cumulative but not compounded,  to
     the  extent  not previously allocated; (iii) third,  to  the
     General Partners until cumulative allocations to the General
     Partners equal 15% of cumulative allocations.  Any remaining
     balance  will  be allocated 85% to the Limited Partners  and
     15%  to the General Partners.  Losses will be allocated  98%
     to the Limited Partners and 2% to the General Partners.
     
     The  General Partners are not required to currently  fund  a
     deficit   capital   balance.   Upon   liquidation   of   the
     Partnership or withdrawal by a General Partner, the  General
     Partners will contribute to the Partnership an amount  equal
     to  the  lesser  of  the deficit balances in  their  capital
     accounts  or  1%  of  total Limited  Partners'  and  General
     Partners' capital contributions.

(3)  Investments in Real Estate -

     The  Partnership  owns  a  4.1022%  interest  in  a  Sizzler
     restaurant  in  Cincinnati, Ohio, a 93.2478% interest  in  a
     Sizzler  restaurant in Springboro, Ohio, and a 100% interest
     in  a  Sizzler restaurant in Fairfield, Ohio.   In  January,
     1994  and June, 1994, the Partnership closed the restaurants
     in  Cincinnati and Springboro, respectively, and listed them
     for sale or lease.  While the properties are being re-leased
     or  sold, the Partnership is responsible for the real estate
     taxes and other costs required to maintain the properties.
     
     On  July 15, 1994, the Partnership re-leased the Sizzler  in
     Fairfield to Fairfield Foods, Inc. (Fairfield) under a Lease
     Agreement with a primary term of 20 years and annual  rental
     payments based on a percentage of sales.  Fairfield was  not
     able  to  profitably operate the restaurant and  closed  the
     restaurant.   The  Partnership is  reviewing  the  available
     options, which include selling or re-leasing the property.
     
     No  rents were collected from the Sizzler restaurants in the
     first  three months of 1996 and 1995.  The total  amount  of
     rent not collected in 1996 and 1995 was $97,516 and $94,675,
     respectively, for the three properties.  These amounts  were
     not accrued for financial reporting purposes.
     
     In  August,  1995, the lessee of the two Rally's  properties
     filed  for  reorganization.  After reviewing  the  operating
     results  of the lessee, the Partnership agreed to amend  the
     Leases  of the two properties.  Effective December 1,  1995,
     the  Partnership amended the Leases to reduce the base  rent
     from  the  current  annual rent of $47,498  and  $48,392  to
     $15,000  for  each property.  The Partnership could  receive
     additional rent in the future equal to 6.5% of the amount by
     which gross receipts exceed $275,000.  The lessee has agreed
     to  pay  all  post-petition rents due and the  Partnership's
     related  administrative and legal expenses.  The Partnership
     is  owed $29,128 of pre-petition rent, which was not accrued
     for  financial reporting purposes due to the uncertainty  of
     collection.
     
     On June 17, 1994, the Partnership sold a 7.0591% interest in
     the Applebee's restaurant in Destin, Florida to an unrelated
     third  party.  The Partnership owns the Destin  property  as
     tenants-in-common  with  the  unrelated  third  party.   The
     management  of  the  property is governed  by  a  co-tenancy
     agreement  between the Partnership and the  unrelated  third
     party, which grants the Partnership the authority to control
     the  management  of the property.  The Partnership  accounts
     for its interest under the full consolidation method whereby
     the  unrelated  third party's interest in  the  property  is
     reflected  in  the Partnership's financial statements  as  a
     minority interest.
     
     On   July  6,  1995,  the  Partnership  sold  the  Cheddar's
     restaurant   in   Columbus,  Ohio,  to  the   lessee.    The
     Partnership received net sale proceeds of $1,259,320,  which
     resulted  in a net gain of $105,291.  At the time  of  sale,
     the cost and related accumulated depreciation was $1,306,191
     and $152,162, respectively.
     
     On  September  1, 1995, the Partnership sold the  Applebee's
     restaurant  in  Memphis,  Tennessee,  to  the  lessee.   The
     Partnership received net sale proceeds of $1,444,822,  which
     resulted  in a net gain of $465,562.  At the time  of  sale,
     the cost and related accumulated depreciation was $1,126,919
     and $147,659, respectively.

(3)  Investments in Real Estate - (Continued)

     During  the  first quarter of 1996 and the  year  1995,  the
     Partnership distributed $91,473 and $691,021 of the net sale
     proceeds  to  the Limited and General Partners  as  part  of
     their  regular quarterly distributions, which represented  a
     return   of   capital  of  $4.10  and  $30.90  per   Limited
     Partnership  Unit,  respectively.   The  majority   of   the
     remaining  net  proceeds  will be reinvested  in  additional
     properties.
     
     On  April  10,  1996,  the Partnership  purchased  an  85.0%
     interest  in  a  Tractor Supply Company  store  in  Bristol,
     Virginia  for  approximately $1,107,000.   The  property  is
     leased  to  Tractor Supply Company under a  Lease  Agreement
     with  a  primary term of 14 years and annual rental payments
     of  $116,686.   The remaining interest in the  property  was
     purchased   by  the  Individual  General  Partner   of   the
     Partnership.
     
     In November, 1995, the Partnership entered into an Agreement
     to  purchase  approximately  a 20%  interest  in  a  Champps
     Americana restaurant in Columbus, Ohio.  The purchase  price
     for  the  entire property will be approximately  $2,200,000.
     The  property will be leased to Americana Dining Corporation
     under a Lease Agreement with a primary term of 20 years  and
     annual  rental  payments  of  approximately  $242,000.   AEI
     Income  &  Growth Fund XXI Limited Partnership, an affiliate
     of  the  Partnership, is expected to acquire  the  remaining
     interest.  The Partnership has incurred net costs of $10,853
     related  to  the acquisition of the properties.   The  costs
     have  been  capitalized  and  will  be  allocated  to  land,
     building and equipment.
     
     On  May  9,  1996,  the  Partnership sold  the  Taco  Cabana
     restaurant  in  New Braunfels, Texas to an  unrelated  third
     party.   The  Partnership  received  net  sale  proceeds  of
     approximately  $986,000, which resulted in  a  net  gain  of
     approximately $278,000.
     
     In   May,   1996,  the  Partnership  reached  a  preliminary
     agreement  to sell a Taco Cabana restaurant in San  Antonio,
     Texas   to   an  unrelated  third  party.   The  Partnership
     anticipates   receiving   net  proceeds   of   approximately
     $1,420,000,   which  would  result  in   a   net   gain   of
     approximately $350,000.
     
     Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, net sale proceeds may
     be  reinvested in additional properties until  a  date  five
     years after the date on which the offer and sale of Units is
     terminated.  This period expired on December 4, 1995.  As  a
     result,  the Managing General Partner is in the  process  of
     preparing a proxy statement to propose an amendment  to  the
     Limited   Partnership  Agreement  that   would   allow   the
     Partnership  to reinvest the majority of the sales  proceeds
     from  the sales of the Taco Cabana restaurants in additional
     properties.
     
(4)  Payable to AEI Fund Management  -
     
     AEI  Fund  Management, Inc. performs the administrative  and
     operating functions for the Partnership.  The payable to AEI
     Fund   Management  represents  the  balance  due  for  those
     services.    This  balance  is  non-interest   bearing   and
     unsecured  and  is  to  be  paid in  the  normal  course  of
     business.

(5)  Security Deposit -
     
     In February, 1996, the Partnership called a letter of credit
     for  $109,393  related  to  the Taco  Cabana  restaurant  in
     Brownsville,  Texas.  The Partnership applied a  portion  of
     the funds to satisfy rents and real estate taxes due.  As of
     March  31,  1996, the Partnership was holding $89,877  as  a
     security  deposit  until the lessee  renews  the  letter  of
     credit.
     
(6)  Line of Credit -
     
     In  September, 1994, the Partnership established a  $150,000
     unsecured  line  of  credit  at  Fidelity  Bank  of   Edina,
     Minnesota.   On  January 5, 1995, the  line  of  credit  was
     increased to $300,000.  The line of credit bears interest at
     the  prime rate plus one percent on the outstanding balance,
     which  is  due  on demand, but in any event  no  later  than
     January  5,  1996.   The line of credit was  established  to
     provide  short-term  financing to cover any  temporary  cash
     deficits.  In January, 1996, the line of credit expired.  In
     the  first quarter of 1995, interest expense related to  the
     line of credit was $2,239.


ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Results of Operations

       The Partnership's rental income is derived from long-term,
triple net lease agreements on the Partnership's properties.  For
the  three  months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, the Partnership
recognized  rental income of $399,188 and $486,662, respectively.
During the same periods, the Partnership earned investment income
of  $29,317  and  $1,301, respectively.  In 1996,  rental  income
decreased  mainly as a result of the property sales  and  Rally's
situation  discussed below.  The decrease in  rental  income  was
partially  offset  by  rent  increases  on  ten  properties   and
additional investment income earned on the net proceeds from  the
property sales.

        The  Partnership  owns a 4.1022% interest  in  a  Sizzler
restaurant in Cincinnati, Ohio, a 93.2478% interest in a  Sizzler
restaurant in Springboro, Ohio, and a 100% interest in a  Sizzler
restaurant in Fairfield, Ohio.  In January, 1994 and June,  1994,
the   Partnership  closed  the  restaurants  in  Cincinnati   and
Springboro,  respectively, and listed them  for  sale  or  lease.
While the properties are being re-leased or sold, the Partnership
is responsible for the real estate taxes and other costs required
to maintain the properties.

       On July 15, 1994, the Partnership re-leased the Sizzler in
Fairfield  to  Fairfield Foods, Inc. (Fairfield)  under  a  Lease
Agreement  with  a  primary term of 20 years  and  annual  rental
payments based on a percentage of sales.  Fairfield was not  able
to  profitably operate the restaurant and closed the  restaurant.
The Partnership is reviewing the available options, which include
selling or re-leasing the property.

        No  rents were collected from the Sizzler restaurants  in
the  first  three months of 1996 and 1995.  The total  amount  of
rent  not  collected  in 1996 and 1995 was $97,516  and  $94,675,
respectively, for the three properties.  These amounts  were  not
accrued for financial reporting purposes.


ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS  (Continued)

        In August, 1995, the lessee of the two Rally's properties
filed  for reorganization.  After reviewing the operating results
of  the lessee, the Partnership agreed to amend the Leases of the
two  properties.   Effective December 1,  1995,  the  Partnership
amended  the  Leases  to reduce the base rent  from  the  current
annual  rent of $47,498 and $48,392 to $15,000 for each property.
The Partnership could receive additional rent in the future equal
to  6.5%  of the amount by which gross receipts exceed  $275,000.
The  lessee has agreed to pay all post-petition rents due and the
Partnership's  related  administrative and  legal  expenses.  The
Partnership is owed $29,128 of pre-petition rent, which  was  not
accrued  for  financial reporting purposes due to the uncertainty
of collection.

        In  February, 1996, the Partnership called  a  letter  of
credit  for  $109,393  related to the Taco Cabana  restaurant  in
Brownsville,  Texas.  The Partnership applied a  portion  of  the
funds  to  satisfy rents and real estate taxes due.  As of  March
31,  1996,  the  Partnership was holding $89,877  as  a  security
deposit until the lessee renews the letter of credit.

       During the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, the
Partnership   paid   Partnership   administration   expenses   to
affiliated  parties of $66,869 and $70,991, respectively.   These
administration  expenses  include  costs  associated   with   the
management of the properties, processing distributions, reporting
requirements  and correspondence to the Limited Partners.  During
the   same   periods,   the  Partnership   incurred   Partnership
administration  and property management expenses  from  unrelated
parties  of  $27,650 and $21,780, respectively.   These  expenses
represent  direct payments to third parties for legal and  filing
fees,  direct administrative costs, outside audit and  accounting
costs, taxes, insurance and other property costs.

        As  of March 31, 1996, the Partnership's annualized  cash
distribution  rate  was  6.0%,  based  on  the  Adjusted  Capital
Contribution.   Distributions of Net Cash  Flow  to  the  General
Partners were subordinated to the Limited Partners as required in
the Partnership Agreement.  As a result, 99% of distributions and
income  were allocated to Limited Partners and 1% to the  General
Partners.

        Inflation  has  had  a  minimal  effect  on  income  from
operations.   It is expected that increases in sales  volumes  of
the  tenants due to inflation and real sales growth, will  result
in  an  increase  in rental income over the term of  the  Leases.
Inflation  also  may  cause  the  Partnership's  real  estate  to
appreciate in value.  However, inflation and changing prices  may
also  have  an  adverse impact on the operating  margins  of  the
properties' tenants which could impair their ability to pay  rent
and subsequently reduce the Partnership's Net Cash Flow available
for distributions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        During  the  three  months  ended  March  31,  1996,  the
Partnership's cash balances decreased $10,308 as the  Partnership
distributed  more  cash to the Partners than  it  generated  from
operating  activities.  Net income before depreciation  decreased
by  approximately $59,000 in the first three months of 1996, when
compared  to the same period in 1995, mainly as the result  of  a
decrease  in revenues as a result of the property sales discussed
below.   The  decrease was partially offset by timing differences
in the collection of payments from the lessees and the payment of
expenses.

        On  July  6,  1995,  the Partnership sold  the  Cheddar's
restaurant  in  Columbus, Ohio, to the lessee.   The  Partnership
received net sale proceeds of $1,259,320, which resulted in a net
gain  of  $105,291.  At the time of sale, the  cost  and  related
accumulated    depreciation   was   $1,306,191   and    $152,162,
respectively.


ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS  (Continued)

        On September 1, 1995, the Partnership sold the Applebee's
restaurant in Memphis, Tennessee, to the lessee.  The Partnership
received net sale proceeds of $1,444,822, which resulted in a net
gain  of  $465,562.  At the time of sale, the  cost  and  related
accumulated    depreciation   was   $1,126,919   and    $147,659,
respectively.

        During  the first quarter of 1996 and the year 1995,  the
Partnership  distributed $91,473 and $691,021  of  the  net  sale
proceeds  to  the Limited and General Partners as part  of  their
regular  quarterly distributions, which represented a  return  of
capital  of  $4.10  and  $30.90  per  Limited  Partnership  Unit,
respectively.  The majority of the remaining net proceeds will be
reinvested in additional properties.

        On  April  10, 1996, the Partnership purchased  an  85.0%
interest  in a Tractor Supply Company store in Bristol,  Virginia
for  approximately $1,107,000.  The property is leased to Tractor
Supply Company under a Lease Agreement with a primary term of  14
years  and  annual  rental payments of $116,686.   The  remaining
interest in the property was purchased by the Individual  General
Partner of the Partnership.

        In  November,  1995,  the  Partnership  entered  into  an
Agreement  to purchase approximately a 20% interest in a  Champps
Americana  restaurant in Columbus, Ohio.  The purchase price  for
the  entire  property  will  be  approximately  $2,200,000.   The
property will be leased to Americana Dining Corporation  under  a
Lease Agreement with a primary term of 20 years and annual rental
payments of approximately $242,000.  AEI Income & Growth Fund XXI
Limited Partnership, an affiliate of the Partnership, is expected
to  acquire the remaining interest.  The Partnership has incurred
net   costs  of  $10,853  related  to  the  acquisition  of   the
properties.   The  costs  have  been  capitalized  and  will   be
allocated to land, building and equipment.

        On  May  9,  1996, the Partnership sold the  Taco  Cabana
restaurant  in New Braunfels, Texas to an unrelated third  party.
The  Partnership  received  net sale  proceeds  of  approximately
$986,000, which resulted in a net gain of approximately $278,000.

        In  May,  1996,  the  Partnership reached  a  preliminary
agreement to sell a Taco Cabana restaurant in San Antonio,  Texas
to   an  unrelated  third  party.   The  Partnership  anticipates
receiving  net proceeds of approximately $1,420,000, which  would
result in a net gain of approximately $350,000.

        Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, net sale  proceeds
may  be  reinvested in additional properties until  a  date  five
years  after  the date on which the offer and sale  of  Units  is
terminated.   This  period expired on December  4,  1995.   As  a
result,  the  Managing  General Partner  is  in  the  process  of
preparing  a  proxy  statement to propose  an  amendment  to  the
Limited Partnership Agreement that would allow the Partnership to
reinvest the majority of the sales proceeds from the sales of the
Taco Cabana restaurants in additional properties.


ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS  (Continued)

       The Partnership's primary use of cash flow is distribution
and  redemption  payments to Partners.  The Partnership  declares
its  regular  quarterly  distributions before  the  end  of  each
quarter and pays the distribution in the first week after the end
of  each quarter.  The Partnership attempts to maintain a  stable
distribution  rate from quarter to quarter.  Redemption  payments
are  paid  to  redeeming Partners in the fourth quarter  of  each
year.   The  redemption payments generally are funded  with  cash
that  would  normally  be paid as part of the  regular  quarterly
distributions.    As   a   result,   total   distributions    and
distributions payable have fluctuated from year to  year  due  to
cash used to fund redemption payments.  In the first three months
of 1995, the Partnership made distributions at an 8.0% rate which
resulted in distributions to the Partners of $460,259.  Effective
January 1, 1996, the distribution rate was reduced to 6.0%  which
resulted  in  distributions of $333,692 to the Partners  for  the
first three months of 1996.

        The  Partnership may acquire Units from Limited  Partners
who have tendered their Units to the Partnership.  Such Units may
be  acquired at a discount.  The Partnership is not obligated  to
purchase  in  any  year  more than 5%  of  the  number  of  Units
outstanding  at  the  beginning of the  year  and  in  no  event,
obligated  to  purchase Units if such purchase would  impair  the
capital or operation of the Partnership.

        During 1995, ten Limited Partners redeemed a total of 156
Partnership Units for $119,235 in accordance with the Partnership
Agreement.  The Partnership acquired these Units using  Net  Cash
Flow  from  operations.  In prior years, a  total  of  thirty-six
Limited  Partners  redeemed 549 Partnership Units  for  $483,397.
The   redemptions   increase  the  remaining  Limited   Partners'
ownership interest in the Partnership.

       In September, 1994, the Partnership established a $150,000
unsecured  line  of credit at Fidelity Bank of Edina,  Minnesota.
On January 5, 1995, the line of credit was increased to $300,000.
The  line  of  credit bears interest at the prime rate  plus  one
percent  on the outstanding balance, which is due on demand,  but
in  any  event no later than January 5, 1996.  The line of credit
was  established  to provide short-term financing  to  cover  any
temporary  cash deficits.  In January, 1996, the line  of  credit
expired.  In the first quarter of 1995, interest expense  related
to the line of credit was $2,239.

       The continuing rent payments from the properties, together
with  cash generated from the property sales, should be  adequate
to  fund  continuing  distributions and  meet  other  Partnership
obligations on both a short-term and long-term basis.
