                   (a Delaware limited partnership)

              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1)  ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
     
     ORGANIZATION

  BRAUVIN INCOME PLUS L.P. III (the "Partnership") is a Delaware
limited partnership organized for the purpose of acquiring debt-free
ownership of existing, free-standing, income-producing retail, office or
industrial real estate properties predominantly subject to "triple-net"
leases.  The General Partners of the Partnership are Brauvin Realty
Advisors III, Inc., Jerome J. Brault and Cezar M. Froelich.  Brauvin
Realty Advisors III, Inc. is owned by Messrs. Brault (beneficially)(50%)
and Froelich (50%).  Brauvin Securities, Inc., an affiliate of the
General Partners, was the selling agent for the Partnership.  The
Partnership is managed by an affiliate of the General Partners.

  The Partnership was formed on July 31, 1989 and filed a
Registration Statement on Form S-11 with the Securities and Exchange
Commission which was declared effective on October 30, 1989.  The sale
of the minimum of $1,200,000 of limited partnership interests of the
Partnership (the "Units") necessary for the Partnership to commence
operations was achieved on January 15,  1990.  The Partnership's
offering was originally expected to close on October 29, 1990 but the
Partnership, with the receipt of the necessary regulatory approval,
extended the offering until it closed on October 29, 1991.  Through
March 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995, the Partnership has sold
$22,766,719 and $22,693,694 of Units, respectively.  These totals
include $1,459,119 and $1,386,094 of Units, respectively, raised by
Limited Partners who utilized their distributions of Operating Cash Flow
to purchase additional Units through the distribution reinvestment plan
(the "Plan").  Units valued at $462,972 and $422,662 have been purchased
by the Partnership from Limited Partners liquidating their investment in
the Partnership and have been retired as of March 31, 1996 and December
31, 1995, respectively.  As of March 31, 1996, the Plan participants
have acquired Units under the Plan which approximate 6% of the total
Units outstanding.

  The Partnership has acquired the land and buildings underlying five
Ponderosa restaurants, two Chi-Chi's restaurants, one International
House of Pancakes restaurant, one Applebee's restaurant, two Sports
Unlimited stores, and three Steak n Shake restaurants.  The Partnership
also acquired 99.5% and 6.4% equity interests in two joint ventures with
entities affiliated with the Partnership.  These ventures own the land

  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  Management's Use of Estimates

  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
        
  Accounting Method

  The accompanying financial statements have been prepared using the
accrual method of accounting.

  Rental Income

  Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the life
of the related leases.  Differences between rental income earned and
amounts due per the respective lease agreements are credited or charged
as applicable to deferred rent receivable.
   
   Federal Income Taxes

  Under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, the
Partnership's income and losses are reportable by the partners on their
respective income tax returns.  Accordingly, no provision is made for
Federal income taxes in the consolidated financial statements.  However,
in certain instances, the Partnership has been required under applicable
state law to remit directly to the tax authorities amounts representing
withholding from distributions paid to partners.

  Consolidation of Joint Venture

  The Partnership owns a 99.5% equity interest in a joint venture,
Brauvin Chili's Limited Partnership, which owns one Chili's restaurant. 
The accompanying financial statements have consolidated 100% of the
assets, liabilities, operations and partners' capital of Brauvin Chili's
Limited Partnership.  All significant intercompany accounts have been
eliminated.

                   (a Delaware limited partnership)

      NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

  Investment in Joint Venture

  The Partnership owns a 6.4% equity interest in a joint venture,
Brauvin Gwinnett County Venture, which owns one CompUSA store.  The
accompanying financial statements include the investment in Brauvin
Gwinnett County Venture using the equity method of accounting.

  Investment in Real Estate

  The operating properties acquired by the Partnership are stated at
cost including acquisition costs.  Depreciation expense is computed on
a straight-line basis over approximately 35 years.

  In 1995, the Partnership adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets"
(SFAS 121).  In conjunction with the adoption of SFAS 121, the
Partnership performed an analysis of its long-lived assets, and the
Partnership's management determined that there were no events or changes
in circumstances that indicated that the carrying amount of the assets
may not be recoverable.  Accordingly, no impairment loss has been
recorded in the accompanying financial statements.

  Organization and Offering Costs

  Organization costs represent costs incurred in connection with the
organization and formation of the Partnership.  Organization costs were
amortized over a period of five years using the straight-line method. 
Offering costs represent costs incurred in selling Units, such as the
printing of the Prospectus and marketing materials.  Offering costs have
been recorded as a reduction of Limited Partners' Capital.

  The General Partners have guaranteed payment of any organization
and offering costs that exceed defined percentages of the gross proceeds
of the offering.  Prepaid offering costs represent amounts in excess of
the defined percentages of the gross proceeds.  Subsequently, gross
proceeds are expected to increase due to the purchase of additional
Units through the Plan and the prepaid offering costs will be
transferred to offering costs and treated as a reduction in Partners'
Capital.

      NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

  Cash and Cash Equivalents

  Cash equivalents include all highly liquid debt instruments with
an original maturity within three months of purchase.

  Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments

  Disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial instruments is
made in accordance with the requirements of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial
Instruments."  The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by
using available market information and appropriate valuation
methodologies.  However, considerable judgement is necessarily required
in interpreting market data to develop estimates of fair value.

  The fair value estimates presented herein are based on information
available to management as of March 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995, but
may not necessarily be indicative of the amounts that the Partnership
could realize in a current market exchange.  The use of different
assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect
on the estimated fair value amounts.  Although management is not aware
of any factors that would significantly affect the estimated fair value
amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for
purposes of these financial statements since that date, and current
estimates of fair value may differ significantly from amounts presented
herein.

  The carrying amounts of the following items are a reasonable
estimate of fair value: cash and cash equivalents; due from affiliates;
accounts payable and accrued expenses; and rents received in advance.

(2)  PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT

   Distributions

   All Operating Cash Flow, as defined in the Partnership Agreement (the
"Agreement") shall be distributed: (a) first, to the Limited Partners

as such term is defined in the Agreement, commencing on the last day of
the calendar quarter in which the Unit was purchased (the "Current
Preferred Return"); and (b) thereafter, any remaining amounts will be

   Net profits and losses from operations of the Partnership [computed
without regard to any allowance for depreciation or cost recovery
deductions under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code")] for each taxable year of the Partnership shall be allocated to
each Partner in the same ratio as the cash distributions received by
such Partner attributable to that period bears to the total cash
distributed by the Partnership.  In the event that there are no cash
distributions, net profits and losses from operations of the Partnership
(computed without regard to any allowance for depreciation or cost
recovery deductions under the Code) shall be allocated 99% to the
Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, all depreciation and cost recovery deductions allowed under
the Code shall be allocated 2% to the General Partners and 98% to the
Taxable Class Limited Partners, as defined in the Agreement.

   The net profit of the Partnership from any sale or other disposition
of a Partnership property shall be allocated (with ordinary income being
allocated first) as follows:  (a) first, an amount equal to the
aggregate deficit balances of the Partners' Capital Accounts, as such
term is defined in the Agreement, shall be allocated to each Partner who
or which has a deficit Capital Account balance in the same ratio as the
deficit balance of such Partner's Capital Account bears to the aggregate

of the deficit balances of all Partners' Capital Accounts;  (b) second,
to the Limited Partners until the Capital Account balances of the
Limited Partners are equal to any unpaid Cumulative Preferred Return, as
of such date; (c) third, to the Limited Partners until the Capital
Account balances of the Limited Partners are equal to the sum of the
amount of their Adjusted Investment plus any unpaid Cumulative Preferred
Return;  (d) fourth, to the General Partners until their Capital Account
balances are equal to any previously subordinated fees; and (e)
thereafter, 95% to the Limited Partners and 5% to the General Partners. 
The net loss of the Partnership from any sale or other disposition of a
Partnership property shall be allocated as follows:  (a) first, an
amount equal to the aggregate positive balances in the Partners' Capital
Accounts, to each Partner in the same ratio as the positive balance in
such Partner's Capital Account bears to the aggregate of all Partners'
positive Capital Accounts balances; and (b) thereafter, 95% to the
Limited Partners and 5% to the General Partners.

(3)  TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

   The Partnership pays an affiliate of the General Partners an annual
property management fee equal to up to 1% of gross revenues derived from
Partnership properties managed by such affiliate.  The property
management fee is subordinated to receipt by the Limited Partners of
distributions of Operating Cash Flow in an amount equal to the Current
Preferred Return.

   An affiliate of one of the General Partners provides securities and
real estate counsel to the Partnership.

   Fees, commissions and other expenses paid or payable to the General
Partners or its affiliates for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and
1995 were as follows:

                                             1996         1995

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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

    The Partnership commenced an offering to the public on October 30,
1989 of 2,500,000 Units.  The offering was anticipated to close  on
October 29, 1990 but was extended by the General Partners with the
necessary regulatory approval to October 29, 1991.  The Offering was
conditioned upon the sale of $1,200,000, which was achieved on January
15, 1990.  The Offering closed on October 29, 1991 with the
Partnership raising a cumulative total of $21,307,600.  The
Partnership continues to raise additional funds through the
distribution reinvestment plan (the "Plan").  The Plan raised
$1,459,119 through March 31, 1996 from Limited Partners investing
their distributions of Operating Cash Flow in additional Units.  As of
March 31, 1996, Units valued at $462,972 have been purchased by the
Partnership from Limited Partners liquidating their original
investment in the Partnership and have been retired.

    The Partnership purchased the land, buildings and improvements
underlying five Ponderosa restaurants in 1990.  In 1991, the
Partnership purchased the land, buildings and improvements underlying
two Chi-Chi's restaurants, an IHOP restaurant an Applebee's restaurant
(which was expanded in 1992), and two Sports Unlimited sporting goods
stores.   In 1992, the Partnership purchased the land, buildings and
improvements underlying three Steak n Shake restaurants.

    On February 7, 1992, the Partnership purchased a 99.5% equity
interest in a joint venture with an affiliate, Brauvin Chili's Limited
Partnership, which owns one Chili's restaurant.

    On November 9, 1993, the Partnership purchased a 6.4% interest in
a joint venture with affiliated real estate limited partnerships (the
"Venture").  The Venture acquired the land and building underlying a
25,000 square foot CompUSA computer superstore from an unaffiliated
seller.

    The Partnership is fully invested in properties with the exception
of funds raised through the Plan.  These operating properties are
expected to generate cash flow for the Partnership after deducting
<PAGE>
                     BRAUVIN INCOME PLUS L.P. III
                   (a Delaware limited partnership)

certain operating and general and administrative expenses from their
rental income.  The Partnership has no funds available to purchase
additional property, excluding those raised through the Plan.

    Below is a table summarizing the historical data for distribution
rates per annum:

Distribution
   Date                1996    1995   1994   1993   1992   1991  

February 15            9.25%   9.25%  9.00%  9.00%  9.25%  9.25% 

May 15                 9.25    9.25   9.00   9.00   9.25   9.25  

August 15                      9.25   9.00   9.00   9.00   9.25  

November 15                    9.25   9.25   9.00   9.00   9.25  

     Future increases in the Partnership's distribution will largely
depend on increased sales at the Partnership's properties resulting in
additional percentage rent and, to a lesser extent rental increases,
which will occur due to increases in  receipts from certain leases
based upon increases in the Consumer Price Index or scheduled increases
of base rent.

     In order to enhance the Partnership's diversity and overall
financial performance, the General Partners have recently agreed to the
following change within the Partnership's Ponderosa portfolio.  Unit
#856 in Dayton, Ohio was converted into a Bennigan's in January, 1996. 
Bennigan's is an affiliate of Ponderosa.  Metromedia Steakhouses
Company L.P., the current lease obligor, will remain liable on the
existing lease.  However, the General Partners believe the conversion
will ultimately generate additional percentage rent to the Partnership
and enhance the overall security of the lease.  The General Partners
believe this change within the Partnership's Ponderosa portfolio will
add to both diversity and the underlying quality of the Partnership's
assets.  

     The Chi Chi's located in Hickory, North Carolina closed October
2, 1995.  However, the property is leased to Foodmaker, Inc. whom has
made complete payments under the lease.  
<PAGE>
                     BRAUVIN INCOME PLUS L.P. III
                   (a Delaware limited partnership)

     Chi-Chi's has undertaken to re-lease the closed restaurant.  In
March 1996, a potential sub-tenant executed a second sub-lease with
Chi-Chi's for the Hickory, North Carolina property.  This sub-lease 
is  currently  being  reviewed  by  both  Foodmaker and the Partnership
and must be accepted by all three parties before it becomes effective. 
Foodmaker will continue to be the guarantor under terms of the second
sub-lease.

     Since the distribution to Limited Partners had been at least 9.25%
per annum during the three months ended March 31, 1996, the General
Partners and its affiliates collected a management fee of $5,943 and
received $10,553 in Operating Cash Flow distributions.  This is
anticipated to continue throughout 1996.                   

Results of Operations - Three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995

     Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1996
reflected net income of $400,014 compared to $411,690 for the three
months ended March 31, 1995, a decrease of approximately $11,700.  The
decrease in net income was due primarily to an increase in total
expenses as a result of the Partnership's property valuations.  

     Total income for the three months ended March 31, 1996 was
$556,200 as compared to $549,519 for the three months ended March 31,
1995, an increase of approximately $6,700.  The increase in total
income is mainly due to an increase in rental income as a result of
increased percentage rents.  

     Total expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1996 were
$159,466 as compared to $140,813 for the three months ended March 31,
1995, an increase of  approximately $18,700.   The increase in expenses
was due to an increase in general and administrative expense related
to the Parntership hiring an independent real estate company to conduct
property valuations.

ITEM 5. Other Information.

        As previously reported, the Partnership has engaged a 
        nationally known real estate firm to perform a valuation of 
        the Partnership's properties.  The stated unit value used for 
        both liquidations and the purchase of new units through the 
        dividend reinvestment program will change as a result of this 
        valuation.  At the time of the distribution, the valuation had
        not been completed.  Once the valuation has been completed, the 
        new stated unit value will be communicated to all partners.

        The General Partners have determined that, for the current
        distribution, all investors, including those who had selected
        the dividend reinvestment option, will receive their distributions 
        in the form of a check.  When the unit valuation process has been 
        completed and the new stated unit value communicated to all 
        partners, each partner will be able to determine if they wish to    
        enter or continue in the dividend reinvestment program.

        Similarly, the General Partners have determined that unit
        liquidations will be temporarily suspended until the valuation
        has been completed.  At that time, pending liquidation requests 
        will be processed according to the terms of the prospectus and 
        liquidated at the then current stated unit value.
