                               September 30, 1997

(1) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

All adjustments, including recurring accruals, have been made that are necessary
to present fairly the financial position and results of operations for the
periods covered by this report. The results of operations for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997, are not necessarily indicative of the operating
results for the full year.

Pursuant to Regulation S-X Rule 10-1(5), American Retirement Villas Properties
III, L.P.'s (the "Partnership") significant accounting policies are described in
the Partnership's December 31, 1996 Form 10-K filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The Partnership follows the same accounting policies for
interim reporting purposes. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction
with such financial statements.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current
period financial statement presentation.

(2) TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

The Partnership has an agreement with ARV Assisted Living, the Partnership's
Managing General Partner, providing for a property management fee of 5 percent
of gross revenues and a partnership management fee of 10 percent of cash flow
before distribution, as defined in the Partnership Agreement. Property
management fees and partnership administration fees were $77,000 and $32,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 1997, respectively, and $232,000 and
$81,000 for the nine month ended September 30, 1997, respectively.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND 
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenue 

Revenue includes rental income, assisted living income, interest earned
on cash balances and other revenue. Revenue decreased $40,000 and $33,000 for
the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 1997, respectively,
compared with the corresponding periods of 1996. The decreases resulted
primarily from lower interest income as a result of lower average cash balances
over the periods, partially offset by additional residents using assisted living
services during 1997.

Costs and Expenses

Total costs and expenses includes rental property operations (consisting of, but
not limited to, property management costs, payroll related expenses, utilities,
food, and maintenance expenses), assisted living expenses, general and
administrative (comprised of, but not limited to, costs for accounting,
partnership administration, bad debt, data processing, investor relations,
insurance and professional services), facilities rent, depreciation and
amortization, property taxes, advertising and interest. Costs and expenses
deceased $108,000 and $330,000 for the three month and nine month periods ended
September 30, 1997, respectively, compared with the corresponding periods of
1996. The decreases resulted primarily from decreases in interest expense,
property taxes, depreciation and amortization. These decreases were partially
offset by increases in assisted living services.

Interest expense, property taxes and depreciation and amortization decreased as
a result of a reduction of property and related debt upon the sale of Heritage
Pointe Claremont in 1996. The increase in assisted living services is due to
additional residents using assisted living services during 1997.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The General Partners expect that the cash to be generated from operations of all
the Partnership's properties will be adequate to pay operating expenses, make
necessary capital improvements and make required principal reductions of debt.
Cash currently generated by operations is being reserved by the Partnership to
fund start-up costs to be incurred by the Villa Las Posas facility which is
expected to commence operations in the late 1997. On a long-term basis, the
Partnership's liquidity is sustained primarily from cash flow provided by
operating activities. During the nine months ended September 30, 1997, cash
provided by operating activities increased to $1.2 million compared to $0.9
million for the corresponding period in 1996.

During the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Partnership's net cash used
in investing activities increased to $4.2 million compared to net cash provided
by investing activities of $0.4 million for the corresponding period in 1996.
The Partnership's investing activities consisted of capital improvements made on
its five operating properties and continued construction of its assisted living
facility in development (Villa Las Posas).

During the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Partnership's net cash
provided by financing activities was $3.3 million compared to net cash used in
financing activities of $0.9 million for the corresponding period in 1996. The
Partnership's financing activities consisted of borrowings from its construction
loan, principal reduction on its notes payable and distributions paid to the
Partners.

The General Partners are not aware of any trends, other than national economic
conditions which have had, or which may be reasonably expected to have, a
material favorable or unfavorable impact on the revenues or income from the
operations or sale of properties. The General Partners believe that if the
inflation rate increases they will be able to pass the subsequent increase in
operating expenses onto the residents of the facilities by way of higher rental
and assisted living rates.

On March 12, 1997, ARVP III obtained a $7.7 construction loan from Bank United
of Texas for financing the construction of the assisted living facility known as
Villa Las Posas located in Camarillo, California. The terms of the construction
loan provide for the interest rate to be equal to 30 day LIBOR rate plus 2.75
percent. As of September 30, 1997, the Partnership had $3.6 million outstanding
under this construction loan. In addition, the Partnership has long-term notes
payable of $15.8 million as of September 30, 1997, comprised of $0.1 million due
in 2000, $4.8 million due in 2007, $7.1 million due in 2017 and $3.8 million due
in 2019.

The Partnership contemplates spending approximately $130,000 for capital
expenditures during 1997 for physical improvements at its five facilities and
$7.7 million for construction costs for its Villa Las Posas assisted living
facility. The funds for improvements should be available from operations and
cash reserves while the funds for construction of the Villa Las Posas facility
should be available from the construction loan with Bank United of Texas.

There are no known material trends, favorable or unfavorable, in the
Partnership's capital resources, and there is no expected change in the mix of
such resources.
