     See notes to financial statements included in the Partnership's 1999 Annual
Report on Form 10-K for additional information relating to the Partnership's

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
----------------------------------

     Copley Realty Income Partners 4; A Limited Partnership (the "Partnership")
is a Massachusetts limited partnership organized for the purpose of investing
primarily in newly-constructed and existing income-producing real properties.
The Partnership commenced operations in September 1989 and acquired its real
estate investments prior to 1991. The Partnership sold its last remaining
investment in August 1999. On December 31, 1999, the Partnership adopted a plan
of liquidation and intends to dissolve in 2000.

     In connection with its adoption of a plan of liquidation on December 31,
1999, the Partnership also adopted the liquidation basis of accounting which,
among other things, requires that assets and liabilities be stated at their
estimated net realizable value and that estimated costs of liquidating the
Partnership be provided to the extent that they are reasonably determinable.

NOTE 2 - REAL ESTATE JOINT VENTURES
-----------------------------------

     On August 27, 1999, the Shasta Way joint venture, in which the Partnership
and an affiliate owned a 42% and 58% interest, respectively, sold its property
to an unaffiliated third party for gross proceeds of $13,057,000, of which the
Partnership's share was $5,483,940.  The Partnership received its 42% share of
the net proceeds, $5,390,812 after closing costs, and recognized a gain of
$1,968,155 ($163.31 per limited partnership unit) on the sale.  On September 22,
1999 the Partnership made a capital distribution of $5,297,364 ($444 per limited
partnership unit) from the proceeds of the sale.

costs to be incurred in carrying out the dissolution and liquidation of the
Partnership.  These costs include estimates of legal fees, accounting fees, tax
preparation and filing fees and other professional services.

     During the six months ended June 30, 2000 the Partnership incurred $13,754
of such expenses and the General Partner re-evaluated the estimated costs to
dissolve the Partnership. The provision for liquidation expenses was accordingly
increased by an additional $9,454 to reflect the revised estimates.

     The actual costs could vary significantly from the related provisions due
to the uncertainty related to the length of time required to complete the
liquidation and dissolution of the Partnership. The accrued expenses do not take
into consideration possible litigation arising from the customary
representations and warranties made as part of each sale. Such costs are unknown
and are not estimable at this time.

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 and to
pay related acquisition costs, or retained as working capital reserves.

     In July 1995, the Partnership reduced its 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.

     On August 27, 1999, the Shasta Way joint venture in which the Partnership
and an affiliate owned a 42% and 58% interest, respectively, sold its property
for a gross sales price of $13,057,000, of which the Partnership's 42% share was
$5,483,940.  The Partnership received its 42% share of the net proceeds, after
closing costs, in the amount of $5,390,812.  On September 22, 1999, the
Partnership made a capital distribution of $5,297,364 ($444 per limited
partnership unit) from the proceeds of the sale.

     In connection with two 1997 sales of property and the sale in August 1999,
capital of $10,093,626 ($846 per limited partnership unit) has been returned to
the limited partners, reducing the adjusted capital contribution to $117 per
unit.

     At June 30, 2000, the Partnership had $1,279,551 in cash and cash
equivalents which is being retained primarily as a reserve in the event of any
claims for breach of representations or warranties in connection with the sale
of Shasta Way, and as an additional reserve in connection with the liquidation
of the Partnership.  The Partnership intends to liquidate and dissolve in 2000.
Cash distributions from operations related to the first two quarters of 1999
were made at the annualized rate of 5.5% on the adjusted capital contribution of
$561 per unit.  At the time of the operating distribution related to the second
quarter of 1999, the Partnership also made a special distribution of $4.80 per
limited partnership unit from operating cash previously held in reserves.  There
have been no distributions from operations since the distribution related to the
third quarter of 1999 due to the sale of the Partnership's last remaining
investment in August, 1999.  When all Partnership expenses have been settled, a
distribution of the remaining cash reserves will be made.

Results of Operations
---------------------

     Operating Factors

     As discussed above, the Shasta Way joint venture, in which the Partnership
and an affiliate owned a 42% and 58% interest, respectively, sold its property
on August 27, 1999.  The Partnership received its 42% share of the net proceeds,
after closing costs, in the amount of $5,390,812 and recognized a gain of
$1,968,155 ($163.31 per limited partnership unit).  The Shasta Way property was
100% leased at the time of sale.

     Investment Results

     There are no comparative real estate operating results for the three and
six month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 due to the sale of the
Partnership's last remaining property in 1999, as discussed above.

    Cash flow from operations decreased by approximately $136,000 between the
six month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999. The decrease is due to the sale
of the Partnership's last remaining property in 1999, as discussed above.

     For the comparable three and six month periods of 1999 and 2000, interest
on cash and cash equivalents increased by approximately $4,300 and $6,900,
respectively. These increases are due to slightly higher yields in 2000.

     Portfolio Expenses

     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.  General and administrative expenses
primarily consist of real estate appraisal, printing, legal, accounting and
investor servicing fees.  General and administrative expenses for the three and
six month periods ended June 30, 1999 were $18,836 and $34,251, respectively.

     There were no management fees incurred during the first and second quarters
of 2000 due to the discontinuace of operating cash distributions as a result of
the sale of the Partnership's last remaining investment during 1999, as
discussed above.

     Costs to dissolve and liquidate the Partnership include legal fees,
accounting fees, tax preparation fees, filing fees and other professional
services.  During the six months ended June 30, 2000, the Partnership incurred
$13,754 of such expenses and the General Partner re-evaluated the estimated
costs to dissolve the Partnership.  The provision for liquidation expenses was
accordingly increased by $9,454 to reflect the revised estimates.
