PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 1 - Financial Statements
The unaudited financial statements of Southeast Acquisitions III, L.P.
(the "Partnership") at September 30, 2000 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"): 208 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; 47 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. At September 30, 2000, the remaining land consisted of
approximately 208 acres of the Fulton County, Georgia land, approximately 47
acres of the Fort Myers, Florida land, and approximately 35 acres of the
Columbia, South Carolina land.
Results of Operations for Third Quarter of 2000 Compared with Third
Quarter of 1999
The Partnership activities for the third quarter of 2000 and the third
quarter of 1999 were focused on the sale of Partnership property. During the
third quarter of 2000, the Partnership recognized $24,822 in non-refundable
earnest money, which represents interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per
annum, to extend the closing on approximately 100 acres of the Fulton County
Property that closed in escrow during the fourth quarter of 1999. This sale is
now scheduled to be funded no later than March 31, 2001. Other income during the
third quarter of 2000 consisted of interest income of $3,158 as compared with
$3,475 in the third quarter of 1999. The decrease in interest earned is a result
of having a lower average cash reserve during the quarter compared to the same
quarter of 1999. There was a decrease to the cash reserve resulting from a
distribution to the limited partners.
Expenses in the third quarter of 2000 included general and
administrative expenses of $6,862 versus $5,619 in the third quarter of 1999.
The increase was primarily due to an increase in legal fees. In addition, the
Partnership had $6,625 of management fees, the same as was incurred in the third
quarter of 1999. Real estate taxes in the third quarter of 2000 were $16,483
compared with $9,518 in the third quarter of 1999. This increase was primarily
due to the reclassification of the Fort Myers, Florida Property. This Property
was reclassified from Agricultural property to Commercial property. Insurance in
the third quarter of 2000 was $10 compared with $323 in the third quarter of
1999.
<PAGE> 3
At the end of the third quarter of 2000, all of the Fort Myers, Florida
land was under contract for a sales price of $1,300,000. This contract closed on
October 2, 2000.
Inflation did not have any material impact on operations during the
third quarter of 2000, and it is not expected to materially impact future
operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Partnership has cash reserves of $300,113 at September 30, 2000,
which will be used to cover the following estimated annual costs: management
fees of $26,500, accounting fees of $13,500, legal fees of $8,000, insurance
premiums of $150, property taxes of $9,300, and other general and administrative
expenses of $4,000. There will be a distribution to the limited partners when
the previously mentioned Fort Myers land sale is funded in the fourth quarter.
In the General Partner's opinion, the Partnership's reserves will be sufficient
for an additional year and three months. However, if additional expenses are
incurred 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
quarter of 2000.
Item 3 - Defaults Upon Senior Securities
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 have been no arrearages or delinquencies with respect to any
such preferred stock.

quarter of 2000.
