NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1998
(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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(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 owned 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 November,
1993, after reviewing the lessee's operating results, the
Partnership determined that the lessee would be unable to
operate the restaurants in a manner capable of maximizing
the restaurants' sales. Consequently, at the direction of
the Partnership, a multi-unit restaurant operator assumed
operation of the restaurants while the Partnership reviewed
the available options. 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 were vacant, the Partnership was
responsible for the real estate taxes and other costs
required to maintain the properties.
No rents were collected from the Sizzler restaurants in the
first six months of 1998 and 1997. The total amount of rent
not collected in 1998 and 1997 was $91,840 and $198,471,
respectively, for the three properties. These amounts were
not accrued for financial reporting purposes.
On January 23, 1997, the Partnership sold its interest in
the Cincinnati restaurant to an unrelated third party. The
Partnership received net sales proceeds of $19,867, which
resulted in a net loss of $31,700, which was recognized as a
real estate impairment in 1996.
In December, 1996, the Partnership, in order to avoid
additional property management expenses, decided to sell the
Sizzler properties in Springboro and Fairfield rather than
to continue to attempt to re-lease the properties. As a
result, the properties were reclassified on the balance
sheet to Real Estate Held for Sale. In addition, based on
an analysis of market conditions in the area, it was
determined that a sale of the properties would result in net
proceeds of approximately $800,000. The Partnership's share
of the proceeds would be approximately $773,000. A charge
to operations for real estate impairment of $1,654,600
($693,500 for the Springboro Sizzler, and $961,100 for the
Fairfield Sizzler) was recognized in the fourth quarter of
1996, which is the difference between book value at December
31, 1996 of $2,427,600 ($1,066,500 for the Springboro
Sizzler and $1,361,100 for the Fairfield Sizzler) and the
estimated market value of $773,000 ($373,000 for the
Springboro Sizzler and $400,000 for the Fairfield Sizzler).
The charge was recorded against the cost of the land,
building and equipment.
On September 22, 1997, the Partnership sold the Sizzler
restaurant in Fairfield, Ohio to an unrelated third party.
The Partnership received net sale proceeds of $528,476,
which is in excess of the book value of the property after
the recognition of the real estate impairment. As a result,
the Partnership recognized a net gain of $128,498.
On July 21, 1998, the Partnership sold its interest in the
Sizzler restaurant in Springboro, Ohio to an unrelated third
party. The Partnership received net sale proceeds of
approximately $350,000, which resulted in a net loss on the
sale of approximately $21,000.

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 annual base
rent from $47,498 and $48,392 to $15,000 for each property.
The Partnership could receive additional rent in the future
equal to 6.75% of the amount by which gross receipts exceed
$275,000. In 1997, the Leases, as amended, were confirmed
as part of the reorganization plan. The lessee has agreed
to pay all pre-petition and post-petition rents due of
$75,775 and the Partnership's related administrative and
legal expenses. However, due to the uncertainty of
collection, the Partnership has not accrued any of these
amounts for financial reporting purposes.
As of December 31, 1997, based on an analysis of market
conditions in the area, it was determined the fair value of
the Rally's properties was approximately $270,000. In the
fourth quarter of 1997, a charge to operations for real
estate impairment of $220,500 was recognized, which is the
difference between the book value at December 31, 1997 of
$490,500 and the estimated fair value of $270,000. The
charge was recorded against the cost of the building and
equipment.
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 the funds to
satisfy 1996 rent income and real estate taxes due and a
portion of the real estate taxes due in 1997. In 1997, the
Partnership took possession of the property and listed it
for sale or lease. The Partnership was scheduled to
receive, but did not collect, $59,160 and $56,884 in rent in
the first six months of 1998 and 1997, respectively. These
amounts were not accrued for financial reporting purposes.
While the property is vacant, the Partnership is responsible
for real estate taxes and other costs required to maintain
the property.
As of December 31, 1997, based on an analysis of market
conditions in the area, it was determined the fair value of
the Brownsville property was approximately $466,600. In the
fourth quarter of 1997, a charge to operations for real
estate impairment of $239,600 was recognized, which is the
difference between the book value at December 31, 1997 of
$706,200 and the estimated fair value of $466,600. The
charge was recorded against the cost of the land and
building.
Through December 31, 1997, the Partnership sold 94.1709% of
the Applebee's restaurant in Destin, Florida in seven
separate transactions to unrelated third parties. The
Partnership received total net sale proceeds of $1,413,627
which resulted in a total net gain of $481,379. The total
cost and related accumulated depreciation of the interests
sold was $1,053,565 and $121,317, respectively. For the six
months ended June 30, 1997, the net gain was $153,716.
Through December 31, 1997, the Partnership sold 90.6301% of
a Taco Cabana restaurant in San Antonio, Texas in seven
separate transactions to unrelated third parties. The
Partnership received total net sale proceeds of $1,520,182
which resulted in a total net gain of $562,654. The total
cost and related accumulated depreciation of the interests
sold was $1,043,983 and $86,455, respectively. For the six
months ended June 30, 1997, the net gain was $69,649.

$217,301. The total cost and related accumulated

respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, the

purchase an Old Country Buffet restaurant to be constrructed
in Northlake, Illinois. On May 18, 1998, the Partnership
purchased the land for $330,000. The Partnership is
charging interest on the land at a rate of 10% until the
building is completed. The total purchase price will be
approximately $1,300,000. After the construction is
complete, the Partnership will pay approximately $970,000 of
the construction costs. The remainder of the construction
costs will be paid by the tenant. The property is leased to
OCB Realty Co. under a Lease Agreement with a primary term
of 20 years and annual rental payments of approximately
$130,000, which begin after construction is completed.
During 1997 and the first six months of 1998, the
Partnership incurred net costs of $134,364 related to the
review of potential property acquisitions. Of these costs,
$25,429 have been capitalized and allocated to land,
building and equipment. The remaining costs of $108,935
have been capitalized and will be allocated to property
acquisitions in future periods.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Results of Operations
For the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, the
Partnership recognized rental income of $703,326 and $704,088,
respectively. During the same periods, the Partnership earned
investment income of $117,453 and $86,606, respectively. In
1998, rental income decreased as a result of the property sales
discussed below. The decrease in rental income was offset by
additional rent received from four property acquisitions in 1997
and 1998, rent increases on ten properties, and additional
investment income earned on the net proceeds from the property
sales.
The Partnership owned 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 November, 1993, after
reviewing the lessee's operating results, the Partnership
determined that the lessee would be unable to operate the
restaurants in a manner capable of maximizing the restaurants'
sales. Consequently, at the direction of the Partnership, a
multi-unit restaurant operator assumed operation of the
restaurants while the Partnership reviewed the available options.
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 were vacant,
the Partnership was responsible for the real estate taxes and
other costs required to maintain the properties.
No rents were collected from the Sizzler restaurants in
the first six months of 1998 and 1997. The total amount of rent
not collected in 1998 and 1997 was $91,840 and $198,471,
respectively, for the three properties. These amounts were not
accrued for financial reporting purposes.
On January 23, 1997, the Partnership sold its interest in
the Cincinnati restaurant to an unrelated third party. The
Partnership received net sales proceeds of $19,867, which
resulted in a net loss of $31,700, which was recognized as a real
estate impairment in 1996.
ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Continued)
In December, 1996, the Partnership, in order to avoid
additional property management expenses, decided to sell the
Sizzler properties in Springboro and Fairfield rather than to
continue to attempt to re-lease the properties. As a result, the
properties were reclassified on the balance sheet to Real Estate
Held for Sale. In addition, based on an analysis of market
conditions in the area, it was determined that a sale of the
properties would result in net proceeds of approximately
$800,000. The Partnership's share of the proceeds would be
approximately $773,000. A charge to operations for real estate
impairment of $1,654,600 ($693,500 for the Springboro Sizzler,
and $961,100 for the Fairfield Sizzler) was recognized in the
fourth quarter of 1996, which is the difference between book
value at December 31, 1996 of $2,427,600 ($1,066,500 for the
Springboro Sizzler and $1,361,100 for the Fairfield Sizzler) and
the estimated market value of $773,000 ($373,000 for the
Springboro Sizzler and $400,000 for the Fairfield Sizzler). The
charge was recorded against the cost of the land, building and
equipment.
On September 22, 1997, the Partnership sold the Sizzler
restaurant in Fairfield, Ohio to an unrelated third party. The
Partnership received net sale proceeds of $528,476, which is in
excess of the book value of the property after the recognition of
the real estate impairment. As a result, the Partnership
recognized a net gain of $128,498.
On July 21, 1998, the Partnership sold its interest in the
Sizzler restaurant in Springboro, Ohio to an unrelated third
party. The Partnership received net sale proceeds of
approximately $350,000, which resulted in a net loss on the sale
of approximately $21,000.
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 annual base rent from $47,498
and $48,392 to $15,000 for each property. The Partnership could
receive additional rent in the future equal to 6.75% of the
amount by which gross receipts exceed $275,000. In 1997, the
Leases, as amended, were confirmed as part of the reorganization
plan. The lessee has agreed to pay all pre-petition and post-
petition rents due of $75,775 and the Partnership's related
administrative and legal expenses. However, due to the
uncertainty of collection, the Partnership has not accrued any of
these amounts for financial reporting purposes.
As of December 31, 1997, based on an analysis of market
conditions in the area, it was determined the fair value of the
Rally's properties was approximately $270,000. In the fourth
quarter of 1997, a charge to operations for real estate
impairment of $220,500 was recognized, which is the difference
between the book value at December 31, 1997 of $490,500 and the
estimated fair value of $270,000. The charge was recorded
against the cost of the building and equipment.
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 the funds to satisfy
1996 rent income and real estate taxes due and a portion of the
real estate taxes due in 1997. In 1997, the Partnership took
possession of the property and listed it for sale or lease. The
Partnership was scheduled to receive, but did not collect,
$59,160 and $56,884 in rent in the first six months of 1998 and
1997, respectively. These amounts were not accrued for financial
reporting purposes. While the property is vacant, the
Partnership is responsible for real estate taxes and other costs
required to maintain the property.
ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Continued)
As of December 31, 1997, based on an analysis of market
conditions in the area, it was determined the fair value of the
Brownsville property was approximately $466,600. In the fourth
quarter of 1997, a charge to operations for real estate
impairment of $239,600 was recognized, which is the difference
between the book value at December 31, 1997 of $706,200 and the
estimated fair value of $466,600. The charge was recorded
against the cost of the land and building.
During the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, the
Partnership paid Partnership administration expenses to
affiliated parties of $131,137 and $134,031, 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 $34,428 and $49,747, 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. The decrease
in these expenses in 1998, when compared to 1997, is the result
of expenses incurred in 1997 related to the Sizzler and Rally's
situations discussed above.
As of June 30, 1998, the Partnership's annualized cash
distribution rate was 6.1%, 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.
AEI Fund Management, Inc. (AEI) performs all management
services for the Partnership. AEI is currently analyzing its
computer hardware and software systems to determine what, if any,
resources need to be dedicated regarding Year 2000 issues. The
Partnership does not anticipate any significant operational
impact or incurring material costs as a result of AEI becoming
Year 2000 compliant.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the six months ended June 30, 1998, the
Partnership's cash balances decreased $1,417,009 mainly as a
result of cash used to purchase additional properties. Net cash
provided by operating activities increased from $545,933 in 1997
to $725,498 in 1998. The increase was due to an increase in
income and a decrease in expenses in 1998, and net timing
differences in the collection of payments from the lessees and
the payment of expenses.
The major components of the Partnership's cash flow from
investing activities are investments in real estate and proceeds
from the sale of real estate. During the six months ended June
30, 1997, the Partnership generated cash flow from the sale of
real estate of $1,553,191. During the six months ended June 30,
1998, the Partnership expended $1,541,787 to invest in real
properties (inclusive of acquisition expenses) as the Partnership
reinvested cash generated from property sales.
ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Continued)
Through December 31, 1997, the Partnership sold 94.1709%
of the Applebee's restaurant in Destin, Florida in seven separate
transactions to unrelated third parties. The Partnership
received total net sale proceeds of $1,413,627 which resulted in
a total net gain of $481,379. The total cost and related
accumulated depreciation of the interests sold was $1,053,565 and
$121,317, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 1997,
the net gain was $153,716.
Through December 31, 1997, the Partnership sold 90.6301%
of a Taco Cabana restaurant in San Antonio, Texas in seven
separate transactions to unrelated third parties. The

resulted in a total net gain of $562,654. The total cost and
related accumulated depreciation of the interests sold was
$1,043,983 and $86,455, respectively. For the six months ended
June 30, 1997, the net gain was $69,649.
Through December 31, 1997, the Partnership sold 77.4842%

of its interest in the Champps Americana restaurant in Columbus,
Ohio in three separate transactions to unrelated third parties.
The Partnership received total net sale proceeds of $807,777
which resulted in a total net gain of $151,139. The total cost
and related accumulated depreciation of the interests sold was
$667,813 and $11,175, respectively. For the six months ended
June 30, 1997, the net gain was $80,490.
During the six three months of 1997, the Partnership
distributed $60,467 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 $2.75 per
Limited Partnership Unit.
On July 30, 1997, the Partnership purchased a Fuddrucker's
restaurant in Thornton, Colorado for $1,405,771. The property is
leased to Fuddrucker's, Inc. under a Lease Agreement with a
primary term of 20 years and annual rental payments of $148,387.
On December 23, 1997, the Partnership purchased a 23.95%
interest in a parcel of land in Troy, Michigan for $361,889. The
land is leased to Champps Entertainment, Inc. (Champps) under a
Lease Agreement with a primary term of 20 years and annual rental
payments of $25,332. Effective June 20, 1998, the annual rent
was increased to $37,998. Simultaneously with the purchase of
the land, the Partnership entered into a Development Financing
Agreement under which the Partnership will advance funds to
Champps for the construction of a Champps Americana restaurant on
the site. Through June 30, 1998, the Partnership had advanced
$417,607 for the construction of the property and was charging
interest on the advances at a rate of 7%. Effective June 20,
1998, the interest rate was increased to 10.5%. The
Partnership's share of the total purchase price, including the
cost of the land, will be approximately $1,077,750. After the
construction is complete, the Lease Agreement will be amended to
require annual rental payments of approximately $113,000. The
remaining interests in the property are owned by AEI Real Estate
Fund XV Limited Partnership, AEI Real Estate Fund XVII Limited
Partnership, and AEI Net Lease Income & Growth Fund XIX Limited
Partnership, affiliates of the Partnership.
ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Continued)
In January, 1998, the Partnership entered into an
agreement to purchase a 45% interest in a Tumbleweed restaurant
in Chillicothe, Ohio. On April 13, 1998, the Partnership
purchased its share of the land for $216,915. The land is leased
to Tumbleweed, LLC (TLLC) under a Lease Agreement with a primary
term of 15 years and annual rental payments of $18,438.
Simultaneously with the purchase of the land, the Partnership
entered into a Development Financing Agreement under which the
Partnership will advance funds to TLLC for the construction of a
Tumbleweed restaurant on the site. Through June 30, 1998, the
Partnership had advanced $70,688 for the construction of the
property and was charging interest on the advance at a rate of
8.5%. The Partnership's share of the total purchase price,
including the cost of the land, will be approximately $610,650.
After the construction is complete, the Lease Agreement will be
amended to require annual rental payments of approximately
$62,600. The remaining interests in the property are owned by
the Individual General Partner and AEI Net Lease Income & Growth
Fund XIX Limited Partnership, affiliates of the Partnership.
In April, 1998, the Partnership entered into an agreement
to purchase a Tumbleweed restaurant in Columbus, Ohio. On May 1,
1998, the Partnership purchased the land for $503,832. The land
is leased to TLLC under a Lease Agreement with a primary term of
15 years and annual rental payments of $42,826. Simultaneously
with the purchase of the land, the Partnership entered into a
Development Financing Agreement under which the Partnership will
advance funds to TLLC for the construction of a Tumbleweed
restaurant on the site. Through June 30, 1998, the Partnership
had advanced $34,200 for the construction of the property and was
charging interest on the advances at a rate of 8.5%. The total
purchase price, including the cost of the land, will be
approximately $1,490,000. After the construction is complete,
the Lease Agreement will be amended to require annual rental
payments of approximately $153,000.
In April, 1998, the Partnership entered into an Agreement
to purchase an Old Country Buffet restaurant to be constrructed
in Northlake, Illinois. On May 18, 1998, the Partnership
purchased the land for $330,000. The Partnership is charging
interest on the land at a rate of 10% until the building is
completed. The total purchase price will be approximately
$1,300,000. After the construction is complete, the Partnership
will pay approximately $970,000 of the construction costs. The
remainder of the construction costs will be paid by the tenant.
The property is leased to OCB Realty Co. under a Lease Agreement
with a primary term of 20 years and annual rental payments of
approximately $130,000, which begin after construction is
completed.
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. Prior to 1998,
redemption payments were paid to redeeming Partners in the fourth
quarter of each year. Beginning in 1998, redemption payments
will be paid to redeeming Partners on a quarterly basis. 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.
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. In no event shall the
Partnership be obligated to purchase Units if, in the sole
discretion of the Managing General Partner, such purchase would
impair the capital or operation of the Partnership.
ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Continued)
On April 1, 1998, six Limited Partners redeemed a total of
161.0 Partnership Units for $128,961 in accordance with the
Partnership Agreement. On July 1, 1998, nineteen Limited
Partners redeemed a total of 199.0 Partnership Units for
$159,399. The Partnership acquired these Units using Net Cash
Flow from operations. In prior years, a total of sixty-eight
Limited Partners redeemed 1,295.52 Partnership Units for
$1,028,771. The redemptions increase the remaining Limited
Partners' ownership interest in the Partnership.
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.

exception to title adversely affects the use of the Property,
said objections to be made in writing or deemed waived. Buyer
shall provide Seller with a copy of said title commitment. If
any objections thereto are so made by Buyer, the Seller shall be
allowed ten (10) days to make such title marketable or cure
Buyer's objections, or in the alternative to obtain a commitment
for insurable title insuring over Buyer's objections. If Seller
shall decide to make no efforts to make title marketable, or is
unable to make title marketable or obtain insurable title, (after
execution by Buyer of such documents reasonably requested by
Seller to evidence the termination hereof) Buyer's First Payment

of no further force and effect. In such event, Buyer shall have
no liability for the funds expended by Seller for all reasonable
costs incurred with respect to updating title and survey as set
forth in Paragraph 6 and Seller shall be responsible for all
Escrow Fees charged in connection with this Agreement.

of title, Buyer shall have been deemed to have waived any such
objections.

tax and conveyance fees and one-half of escrow fees, and any
