SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURES OF NON-CASH ACTIVITIES

Foreclosure

   During the first quarter of 1995, Forest Ridge Shopping Center was foreclosed
upon by the lender.  In connection with this foreclosure, the following accounts
were adjusted by the non-cash amounts noted below.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

Note A - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements for Brunner Companies Income
Properties LP. III (the "Partnership"), have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and
with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B. 
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. 
In the opinion of the Managing General Partner (Brunner Management Limited
Partnership), all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating
results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996, are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year
ending December 31, 1996.  For further information, refer to the financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's annual report on
Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1995 information to conform to
the 1996 presentation.


Note B - Mortgage Notes Payable

The mortgage notes payable for Highpoint ($6,600,000) and Gateway ($5,616,000)
matured on March 1, 1995.  The Partnership successfully obtained a long-term
extension related to the Highpoint and Gateway notes in May of 1995.  The
Highpoint note matures October 1, 2008, and the Gateway note matures January 1,
2008.  Both notes are cross-collateralized, cross-defaulted and have an interest
rate of 9.25%.  

Note C - Foreclosure of Forest Ridge

On January 5, 1995, the lender foreclosed on Forest Ridge Shopping Center.  The
$7,200,000 mortgage matured January 1, 1994, and was in default.  The lender
granted forebearances through June 30, 1994, while refinancing discussions
continued between the Partnership and the lender.  These discussions did not
ultimately produce an agreement to either refinance or sell the property and the
Partnership did not contest the lender's foreclosure.  In the Managing General
Partner's opinion, it was not in the Partnership's best interest to contest the
foreclosure action or file for reorganization under bankruptcy laws.  On January
5, 1995, the Partnership recorded a valuation write-down of $415,000, to reduce
the carrying costs of the Forest Ridge assets to their estimated market value
resulting in a gain on the foreclosure of $844,000.

Note D - Foreclosure of Bay Village

On December 4, 1995, the lender foreclosed on the Bay Village Shopping Center. 
The $5,300,000 mortgage matured January 1, 1994, and had been in default since
that date.  The lender granted forebearances through June 30, 1994, while
refinancing discussions continued between the Partnership and the lender.  These
discussions did not ultimately produce an agreement to either refinance or sell
the property and the lender foreclosed on the property.  In the Managing General
Partner's opinion, it was not in the Partnership's best interest to contest the
foreclosure action or file bankruptcy.  The estimated fair value of Bay Village
approximated the amount payable to the mortgage holder; therefore, a gain on the
disposal of the property through foreclosure of $16,000, the difference between
the carrying value of the property and the debt to the mortgage holder, was
recorded.

Note E - Transactions with Affiliated Parties

The Partnership has no employees and is dependent on the Managing General
Partner and its affiliates for the management and administration of all
partnership activities.  The partnership agreement provides for payments to
affiliates for services and for reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by
affiliates on behalf of the Partnership.  The following payments were made to
affiliates of the Managing General Partner in 1996 and 1995:

                                                                              
                                                    Six Months Ended June 30 
                                                        1996         1995 
                                                          
 Property management fees                               $27           $36
 Reimbursement for services of affiliates                13            19 
                                                          
Additionally, the Partnership paid $7,000 and $25,000 during the six months
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, to an affiliate of the Managing
General Partner for lease commissions related to new leases of the Partnership's
commercial properties.  These lease commissions are included in other assets and
amortized over the term of the respective leases.

The Partnership insures its properties under a master policy through an agency
and insurer unaffiliated with the Managing General Partner.  An affiliate of the
Managing General Partner acquired, in the acquisition of a business, certain
financial obligations from an insurance agency which was later acquired by the
agent who placed the current year's master policy.  The current agent assumed
the financial obligations to the affiliate of the Managing General Partner who
receives payments on these obligations from the agent.  The amount of the
Partnership's insurance premiums accruing to the benefit of the affiliate of the
Managing General Partner by virtue of the agent's obligations is not
significant.

ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

The Partnership's investment properties consist of two retail centers.  The
following table sets forth the average occupancy of the properties for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995:

                                                       Average   
                                                      Occupancy  
                                                  1996         1995

 Gateway Plaza                                                      
    Mt. Sterling, Kentucky                         85%          94% 

 Highpoint Village                                                  
    Bellefontaine, Ohio                            94%          95% 

Wal-Mart, an anchor tenant, vacated the Gateway Plaza in May of 1996.  This
tenant is liable for, and the Partnership expects that it will pay, its rental
payments through the year 2008 when its lease expires.  Certain tenants in the
shopping center have the option to pay a reduced rental rate based on tenant
sales due to the vacancy of this anchor tenant.  It is unknown at this time to
what extent this vacancy will negatively impact the performance of the shopping
center.

The Partnership realized a net loss of $107,000 for the six months ended June
30, 1996, compared to net income of $276,000 for the six months ended June 30,
1995.  The Partnership realized a net loss of $31,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 1996, compared to a net loss of $59,000 for the corresponding period of
1995.  The decrease in net income for the six month period ended June 30, 1996,
is primarily due to the foreclosure of Forest Ridge Shopping Center in January
1995.  This foreclosure resulted in a gain on foreclosure in 1995 of $844,000,
offset by a write-down of the property of $415,000.  In addition, the decreases
for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996, in rental income,
depreciation, interest expense and property taxes were primarily a result of the
foreclosure of Bay Village in December 1995.  Other income decreased for the
three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996, as a result of a non-recurring
easement fee paid by Wal-Mart at Gateway Plaza in 1995.

On December 4, 1995, the lender foreclosed on the Bay Village Shopping Center. 
The $5,300,000 mortgage matured January 1, 1994, and had been in default since
that date.  The lender granted forebearances through June 30, 1994, while
refinancing discussions continued between the Partnership and the lender.  These
discussions did not ultimately produce an agreement to either refinance or sell
the property and the lender foreclosed on the property.  In the Managing General
Partner's opinion, it was not in the Partnership's best interest to contest the
foreclosure action or file bankruptcy.  The estimated fair value of Bay Village
approximated the amount payable to the mortgage holder; therefore, a gain on the
disposal of the property through foreclosure of $16,000, the difference between
the carrying value of the property and the debt to the mortgage holder, was
recorded.

On January 5, 1995, the lender foreclosed on Forest Ridge Shopping Center.  The
$7,200,000 mortgage matured January 1, 1994, and was in default.  The lender
granted forebearances through June 30, 1994, while refinancing discussions
continued between the Partnership and the lender.  These discussions did not
ultimately produce an agreement to either refinance or sell the property and the
Partnership did not contest the lender's foreclosure.  In the Managing General 
Partner's opinion, it was not in the Partnership's best interest to contest the
foreclosure action or file for reorganization under bankruptcy laws.  On January
5, 1995, the Partnership recorded a valuation write-down of $415,000, to reduce
the carrying costs of the Forest Ridge assets to their estimated market value
and a gain on the foreclosure of $844,000.

At June 30, 1996, the Partnership held unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of
$819,000 compared to $841,000 at June 30, 1995.  Net cash provided by operations
increased primarily due to increased receipts in the second quarter of 1996 of
common area maintenance reimbursements from tenants at both properties. 
Offsetting this increase of cash were significant prepaid rent collections in
the first half of 1995 that did not recur in the corresponding period of 1996. 
Net cash used in financing activities increased due to the extension on the
Highpoint and Gateway notes in May of 1995, which led to monthly principal
payments beginning in June of 1995.  Offsetting this increase was the absence of
nonrecurring loan costs which were paid in 1995 relating to the loan extension.

The mortgage notes payable for Highpoint ($6,600,000) and Gateway ($5,616,000)
matured on March 1, 1995.  The Partnership successfully obtained a long-term
extension related to the Highpoint and Gateway notes in May of 1995.  The
Highpoint note matures October 1, 2008, and the Gateway note matures January 1,
2008.  Both notes are cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted and have an
interest rate of 9.25%.  

The sufficiency of existing liquid assets to meet future liquidity and capital
expenditure requirements is directly related to the level of capital
expenditures required at the properties to adequately maintain the physical
assets and meet other operating needs of the Partnership.  Due to the successful
closing of the long-term financing on Highpoint and Gateway, the level of
existing liquid assets is believed to be sufficient to meet any near term needs
of the Partnership.  No distributions were made in 1995 or during the first six
months of 1996.  Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of net cash
generated from operations, refinancings, property sales, and the availability of
cash reserves.
