PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 1 - Financial Statements

         The unaudited financial statements of Southeast Acquisitions III, L.P.
(the "Partnership") at September 30, 1998 are attached hereto as Exhibit A.

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.

         Background

         The Partnership was formed to acquire, own and realize appreciation in
the following properties by holding them for investment and eventual sale (each
a "Property," collectively the "Properties"): 211 acres of undeveloped land in
Fulton County, Georgia; 265 acres of undeveloped land in Henry County, Georgia;
24 acres of undeveloped land near Nashville, Tennessee; 48 acres of undeveloped
land near Fort Myers, Florida; and 51 acres of undeveloped land near Columbia,
South Carolina. There can be no assurance that the partnership's objectives will
be realized.

         Results of Operations for Third Quarter of 1998 Compared with Third
         Quarter of 1997

         The Partnership activities for the third quarter of 1998 and the third
quarter of 1997 were focused on the sale of Partnership property. During the
third quarter of 1998 there were no sales of Partnership property. During the
third quarter of 1997 there were no sales of Partnership property. Other
receipts during the third quarter of 1998 consisted of interest income of $5,188
compared with $7,225 in the third quarter of 1997.

         Expenses in the third quarter of 1998 included general and
administrative expenses of $4,460 versus $41,925 in the third quarter of 1997.
The latter amount includes $40,000 for legal and printing costs related to the
proxy statement of September 22, 1997 which made revisions to the Partnership
Agreement including the selection of a new General Partner. In addition, the
Partnership had $6,625 of management fees in the third quarter of 1998 as
compared with $3,751 in the third quarter of 1997. Real estate taxes in the
third quarter of 1998 were $7,403 compared with $7,895 in the third quarter of
1997 as a result of the Partnership owning less property in the 1998 period.
Insurance in the third quarter of 1998 was $341 compared with $126 in the third
quarter of 1997.

         Inflation did not have any material impact on operations during the
third quarter of 1998 and it is not expected to materially impact future
operations.

         Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The Partnership had cash reserves of $523,875 at September 30, 1998,
which will be used to cover the following: A reserve for Fulton County Georgia
sewer of $200,000, cost of Henry County water line extension of $18,500 and
annual expenses for management fees $26,500, accounting $15,000, legal $10,600,
insurance $1,600, property taxes $27,000, and general and administrative
expenses $3,600. In the General Partner's opinion, the Partnership's reserves
will be sufficient for an additional three years. However, if additional
expenses are incurred or if the Partners goes forward with the construction to
bring sewer to the Fulton County Property then the reserves may be inadequate to
cover the Partnership's operating expenses. If the reserves are exhausted, the
Partnership may have to dispose of some or all of the Properties or incur
indebtedness on unfavorable terms.

         PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1 - Legal Proceedings

         None

Item 2 - Changes in Securities

         There were no changes in the Partnership's securities during the third

Item 3 - Defaults Upon Senior Securities

         During the third quarter of 1998 there was no default in the payment of
principal, interest, a sinking or purchase fund installment or any other default
with respect to any indebtedness of the Partnership. The Partnership has issued
no preferred stock; accordingly, there has been no arrearages or delinquencies
with respect to any such preferred stock.

Item 4 - Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

         No matters were submitted to the Partners for a vote during the third
quarter of 1998.
