$188,606 ($15.65 per limited partnership unit).
<PAGE>
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
- -----------------------------------------------------------
and Results of Operations
- -------------------------
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Partnership completed its offering of units of limited partnership
interest in December 1990 and a total of 11,931 units were sold. The
Partnership received proceeds of $10,097,962, net of selling commissions
and other offering costs, which have been used for investment in real
estate, used to pay related acquisition costs or retained as working
capital reserves.
At September 30, 1996, the Partnership had $1,697,623 in cash, cash
equivalents, and short-term investments, of which $188,606 was used for
cash distributions to the partners on October 24, 1996; the remainder is
being retained for working capital reserves. In July 1995, the Partnership
reduced these working capital reserves by making a capital distribution of
$441,447 ($37 per limited partnership unit). After the distribution, the
Partnership's adjusted capital contribution was $963 per unit. The source
of future liquidity and cash distributions to partners will be cash
generated by the Partnership's real estate and short-term investments.
Distributions of cash from operations related to the first three quarters
of 1996 were made at the annualized rate of 6.5% on the adjusted capital
contribution. Distributions of cash from operations in 1995 were made at
the annualized rate of 5.5% on a capital contribution of $1,000 per unit
for the first two quarters and on the weighted average adjusted capital
contribution for the third quarter. The distribution rate was increased in
1996 due to improvements in cash flow from the Partnership's investments.
The carrying value of real estate investments in the financial
statements at September 30, 1996 is at depreciated cost, or if the
investment's carrying value is determined not to be recoverable through
expected undiscounted future cash flows, the carrying value is reduced to
estimated fair market value. The fair market value of such investments is
further reduced by the estimated cost of sale for properties held for sale.
Carrying value may be greater or less than current appraised value. At
September 30, 1996, the appraised values of the Newhew and Shasta Way
investments exceeded their carrying values by $1,700,000 and $600,000,
respectively. The current appraised value of real estate investments has
been determined by the managing general partner and is generally based on a
combination of traditional appraisal approaches performed by the
Partnership's advisor, Copley Real Estate Advisors, Inc., and independent
appraisers. Because of the subjectivity inherent in the valuation process,
the current appraised value may differ significantly from that which could
be realized if the real estate were actually offered for sale in the
marketplace.
<PAGE>
Results of Operations
Form of Real Estate Investments
The Newhew and Shasta Way investments had been structured as joint
ventures with a real estate management/development firm and, in one case,
an affiliate of the Partnership. As of January 1, 1996, the Shasta Way
joint venture was restructured, and the management/development firm's
interest was assigned to the Partnership and its affiliate in proportion to
their respective ownership interests. The Partnership's ownership
percentage increased to 42%.
Operating Factors
Occupancy remained at 100% at Hohokam Corporate Center (Newhew's Phase
I investment) during the third quarter of 1996. The property was 83%
leased at December 31, 1995 and September 30, 1995. Fairmont Commerce
Center (Newhew's Phase II investment) has been 100% leased to two tenants
since May 1992.
Shasta Way is 100% occupied by a single tenant under a lease which
expires December 31, 1998.
Investment Results
Interest income on cash equivalents and short-term investments for the
nine months ended September 30, 1996 decreased approximately $22,000, or
26%, compared to the corresponding period in 1995, primarily due to lower
invested balances as a result of the distribution of excess working capital
reserves in mid-1995, as well as to lower short-term yields.
Joint venture earnings were $427,583 and $352,268 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Joint venture earnings in
1996 are comprised of operating income of $256,330 at Newhew and $171,253
at Shasta Way; corresponding 1995 earnings were $188,201 at Newhew and
$164,067 at Shasta Way. The improvement at Newhew is primarily due to
increased rental income at Hohokam as a result of an increase in occupancy
and rental rates.
Operating cash flow increased by approximately $10,000 between the
first nine months of 1995 and 1996, which is less than the increase in
operating results, primarily due to the timing of distributions from both
Shasta Way and Newhew.
<PAGE>
Portfolio Expenses
General and administrative expenses primarily consist of real estate
appraisal, legal, accounting, printing and servicing agent fees. These
expenses were substantially unchanged between the first nine months of 1996
and 1995 as decreases in legal and appraisal fees were partially offset by
increases in certain professional fees and printing costs.
The Partnership management fee is 9% of distributable cash flow from
operations after any increase or decrease in working capital reserves as
determined by the managing general partner. Management fees increased
between the two nine-month periods due to the increase in distributable
cash flow.
