Item 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
-----------------------
Business Development
- --------------------
Windsor Park Properties 7, a California Limited Partnership (the Partnership),
was formed in June 1989 pursuant to the provisions of the California Uniform
Limited Partnership Act. The General Partners of the Partnership are The
Windsor Corporation, a California corporation, and John A. Coseo, Jr., chief
executive officer, president and principal stockholder of The Windsor
Corporation. The Partnership term is set to expire in December 2005; however,
the Partnership may either be dissolved earlier or extended under certain
circumstances. The Partnership may be extended at the recommendation of the
General Partners with approval of a majority of the Limited Partners.
The Partnership was organized to acquire and hold existing manufactured home
communities for investment. Its principal investment objectives are to provide
to its Limited Partners: (i) distributions of cash from operations, (ii)
preservation, protection and eventual return of the Limited Partners'
investment, and (iii) realization of appreciation in the value of the properties
acquired.
The Partnership was funded through a public offering of 250,000 limited
partnership units (Units). A total of 159,332 Units were sold for gross proceeds
aggregating $15,933,200. The offering commenced in March 1990 and terminated in
January 1992. The net proceeds from the offering were originally expended for
the acquisition of undivided interests in four manufactured home communities
located in Florida, Washington and Indiana. The Partnership paid all cash for
the properties.
In February 1995, through a proxy vote of the limited partners, an amendment to
the Agreement of Limited Partnership was approved permitting the financing of
currently owned manufactured home communities and the reinvestment of financing
proceeds into newly acquired manufactured home communities to be purchased with
permanent mortgage financing. Overall Partnership mortgage financing will not
exceed 55% of the value of existing and newly acquired properties.
Subsequent to the approval of the financing and reinvestment proposal discussed
above, the Partnership obtained two loans collateralized by interests in
currently owned manufactured home communities. The proceeds from these loans
were used as partial consideration to purchase interests in six additional
manufactured home communities. The remaining consideration was obtained from
permanent mortgage financing.
In June 1995, the Partnership and an affiliated limited partnership jointly
obtained a $3,479,800 loan collateralized by the Carefree Village manufactured
home community, a jointly owned property. The Partnership's share of this loan
is $1,948,700. The Partnership also obtained a $4,620,000 loan collateralized
by the Kings and Queens, North Glen and The Hills communities.
In June 1995, the Partnership purchased interests in two manufactured home
communities - a 100% interest in the Lucerne manufactured home community located
in Winter Haven, Florida, and a 60% interest in the Long Lake Village
manufactured home community located in West Palm Beach, Florida. The remaining
interest in Long Lake Village was acquired by an affiliated entity. The
Partnership's costs of its equity interests in Lucerne and Long Lake Village
were $2,118,500 and $868,100, respectively. The Partnership obtained a
$1,100,000 loan in connection with the purchase of Lucerne, and the Partnership
and an affiliated entity jointly obtained a $1,600,000 loan in connection with
the purchase of Long Lake Village. The Partnership's share of the Long Lake
Village loan is $960,000. Both loans are collateralized by the communities.

<PAGE>
In August 1995, the Partnership purchased a 69% undivided interest in the Garden
Walk manufactured home community located in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. The
remaining undivided interest in the community was acquired by an affiliated
limited partnership. The Partnership's cost of its equity interest in the
community was $2,479,500. The Partnership and the affiliated partnership
jointly obtained a $5,700,000 loan, collateralized by the community, in
connection with the purchase. The Partnership's share of the loan is
$3,933,000.
In October 1995, the Partnership purchased the Village Glen manufactured home
community located in Melborne, Florida. The Partnership's total cost of the
community was $2,551,000. A $1,500,000 loan, collateralized by the community,
was obtained in connection with the purchase.
In February 1997, the Partnership purchased a 26% interest in the Apache East
Estates and Denali Park Estates manufactured home communities located in
Phoenix, Arizona. The remaining interests in the communities were purchased by
affiliated entities. The Partnership's cost of its equity interest in the
communities was $598,000. In connection with the purchase, the joint venture
obtained a $3,040,000 loan, collateralized by the communities. The
Partnership's share of this loan is $790,400. In addition, the Partnership
assumed a $500,000 note payable to the seller.
The Partnership owns interests in the following manufactured home communities at
February 28, 1997:

Denali Park 26% February 1997 Phoenix, Arizona
</TABLE>
No further property financings or investment property acquisitions are planned
by the General Partners.
The overall occupancy of the eight communities owned by the Partnership at
December 31, 1996 was approximately 93%. The General Partners continue to
maintain the properties in good condition and promote them to improve occupancy.
There are no current plans to dispose of any of these properties.
Business of Issuer
- ------------------
The Partnership is currently in the business of managing, holding for
investment, and eventually selling the existing manufactured home communities.
Competitors of the Partnership include other public and private limited
partnerships, individuals, corporations, and other entities engaged in real
estate investment activities. Competition for such properties varies with
changes in the supply or demand for similar or competing properties in a given
area, changes in interest rates and the availability of mortgage funds, and
changes in tax, real estate, environmental, and zoning laws.
Partnership profitability depends in part on maximizing occupancy and rental
rates in its manufactured home communities. Rents and occupancy rates are
affected by both changes in general economic
4
<PAGE>
conditions and changes in local conditions such as levels of employment, supply
of other comparable units or competitive housing alternatives, zoning laws and
the availability and cost of energy and transportation.
All of the properties are located in or near large urban areas. Accordingly,
they compete for rentals not only with the other manufactured home communities
but with apartments and any other form of low-cost housing that might exist.
The Partnership's profitability also depends on the minimization of both
property and partnership administration expenses. Expenses are affected by
changes in general economic trends and changes in local conditions such as
prevailing wages, utility rates, insurance costs, and real estate taxation
practices.
The Partnership has no employees. Partnership administrative services are
provided by The Windsor Corporation, which is reimbursed for costs incurred on
behalf of the Partnership. An independent property management company employs
all of the properties' on-site personnel and is reimbursed by the Partnership
for such costs.
Item 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES
-------------------------
The Partnership owns interests in ten properties at February 28, 1997. The
Partnership operates the properties as manufactured home communities, renting
space to manufactured home tenants on a month-to-month basis. The properties
compete for rentals with other manufactured home communities and apartments in
their local markets. All of the properties are encumbered. It is the General
Partners' opinion that the properties are in good condition and are adequately
insured.

7
<PAGE>
Partners expect that the Partnership will make cash distributions in the future.
Item 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
------------------------------------
a) Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------
The Partnership's primary sources of cash during the years ended December 31,
1996 and 1995 were from the operations of its investment properties and proceeds
from mortgage notes payable. The Partnership's primary uses of cash during the
same period were for the purchases of interests in investment properties, debt
service and cash distributions to partners.
In February 1995, through a proxy vote of the limited partners, an amendment to
the Agreement of Limited Partnership was approved permitting the financing of
currently owned manufactured home communities and the reinvestment of financing
proceeds into newly acquired manufactured home communities to be purchased with
permanent mortgage financing. Overall Partnership mortgage financing will not
exceed 55% of the value of existing and newly acquired properties.
Subsequent to the approval of the financing and reinvestment proposal discussed
above, the Partnership obtained two loans collateralized by interests in
currently owned manufactured home communities. The proceeds from these loans
were used as partial consideration to purchase interests in six additional
manufactured home communities. The remaining consideration was obtained from
permanent mortgage financing.
In June 1995, the Partnership and an affiliated limited partnership jointly
obtained a $3,479,800 loan collateralized by the Carefree Village manufactured
home community, a jointly owned property. The Partnership's share of the loan
is $1,948,700. The Partnership also obtained a $4,620,000 loan collateralized
by the Kings and Queens, North Glen and The Hills communities.
In June 1995, the Partnership purchased interests in two manufactured home
communities - a 100% interest in the Lucerne manufactured home community located
in Winter Haven, Florida, and a 60% interest in the Long Lake Village
manufactured home community located in West Palm Beach, Florida. The remaining
interest in Long Lake Village was acquired by an affiliated entity. The
Partnership's costs of its equity interests in Lucerne and Long Lake Village
were $2,118,500 and $868,100, respectively. The Partnership obtained a
$1,100,000 loan in connection with the purchase of Lucerne. The Partnership and
an affiliated entity jointly obtained a $1,600,000 loan in connection with the
purchase of Long Lake Village. The Partnership's share of the Long Lake Village
loan is $960,000. Both loans are collateralized by the properties.
In August 1995, the Partnership purchased a 69% undivided interest in the Garden
Walk manufactured home community located in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. The
remaining undivided interest in the property was acquired by an affiliated
limited partnership. The Partnership's cost of its equity interest in the
community was $2,479,500. The Partnership and the affiliated partnership
jointly obtained a $5,700,000 loan, collateralized by the community, in
connection with the purchase. The Partnership's share of the loan is
$3,933,000.
In October 1995, the Partnership purchased the Village Glen manufactured home
community located in Melborne, Florida. The Partnership's total cost of the
community was $2,551,000. A $1,500,000 loan, collateralized by the community,
was obtained in connection with the purchase.
All of the Partnership's loans, except the Village Glen loan, are payable in
monthly interest only installments bearing interest at 90 day LIBOR plus 2.95%
(8.47% at December 31, 1996) and are due in 2002. The Partnership and the
affiliated entities are contingently liable for the full amounts of the
8
<PAGE>
loans obtained jointly. In March 1996, the Village Glen loan, which originally
had the same terms as the other Partnership loans, was converted to a fixed rate
loan bearing interest at 8.82%. All other terms remained the same.
At December 31, 1996, the Partnership's total mortgage debt, including its
proportionate share of joint venture debt, was $14,061,700, consisting of
$1,500,000 of fixed rate debt and $12,561,700 of variable rate debt. The
average rate of interest on the fixed and variable rate debt was 8.8% and 8.5%,
respectively, at December 31, 1996.
In February 1997, the Partnership purchased a 26% interest in the Apache East
Estates and Denali Park Estates manufactured home communities located in
Phoenix, Arizona. The remaining interests in the communities were purchased by
affiliated entities. The Partnership's cost of its equity interest in the
communities was $598,000. In connection with the purchase, the joint venture
obtained a $3,040,000 loan, collateralized by the communities. The
Partnership's share of this loan is $790,400. In addition, the Partnership
assumed a $500,000 note payable to the seller. The $3,040,000 loan initially
bears interest at 8.375%. In March 2000 and March 2003, the interest rate
adjusts to the yield on the 3 year Treasury Note plus 2.2%. The loan is due in
March 2006. The $500,000 loan bears interest at 8% and is due in February 1998.
In February 1997, the Partnership received a $370,000 payment on the note
receivable from general partners. The General Partners currently intend to use
these proceeds to paydown the $500,000 note payable to the seller of the Apache
East and Denali Park communities.
The Partnership owns interests in the following manufactured home communities at
February 28, 1997:

Denali Park 26% February 1997 Phoenix, Arizona
</TABLE>
No further property financings or investment property acquisitions are planned
by the General Partners.
The future sources of cash for the Partnership will be provided from property
operations, cash reserves, and ultimately from the sale of property. The
future uses of cash will be for Partnership administration, capital
expenditures, cash distributions to partners and debt service. The General
Partners believe that the future sources of cash are sufficient to meet the
working capital requirements of the Partnership for the foreseeable future.
b) Results of Operations
---------------------
The results of operations for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 are not
directly comparable due to the purchases of interests in the Lucerne, Long Lake
Village, Garden Walk and
9
<PAGE>
Village Glen manufactured home communities in June 1995, June 1995, August 1995
and October 1995, respectively. The Partnership realized net income of $353,400
and $626,700 for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Net
income per limited partnership unit was $2.21 in 1996 compared to $3.91 in 1995.
As a result of the investment property purchases described above, all major
revenue and expense categories increased in 1996, specifically, rent and
utilities revenues, property operating costs and depreciation and amortization.
The overall occupancy of the Partnership's five wholly owned properties was 98%
at December 31, 1996 compared to 97% at December 31, 1995. Recent rent
increases implemented at wholly owned properties include $13 and $8 per month at
North Glen effective July 1996 and July 1995, respectively; $9 and $12 per month
at Kings and Queens and Village Glen, respectively, effective January 1996; and
$8 per month at Lucerne effective March 1996.
Equity in earnings of joint ventures represents the Partnership's share of the
net income of the Carefree Village manufactured home community, and since their
purchase in 1995, the Long Lake Village and Garden Walk manufactured home
communities. Equity in earnings of joint ventures decreased from $267,800 in
1995 to $264,400 in 1996. The overall occupancy of the Partnership's three
joint venture properties decreased from 93% at December 31, 1995 to 89% at
December 31, 1996. The overall decrease in occupancy is due primarily to Long
Lake Village, where occupancy decreased from 97% at December 31, 1995 to 87% at
December 31, 1996. The General Partners feel that the best long term course of
action is to reduce the number of non-owner occupied mobile homes located in the
community. Several of these homes were removed in 1996 resulting in the
decrease in occupancy. The available spaces are now being marketed for higher
quality owner occupied homes and the General Partners believe that the decrease
in occupancy will be temporary.
Interest income increased from $72,400 in 1995 to $81,700 in 1996 due mainly to
higher cash balances maintained by the Partnership.
Interest expense increased from $244,400 in 1995 to $658,800 in 1996, due to the
mortgage loans obtained by the Partnership in 1995, as discussed previously.
General and administrative expenses increased from $104,600 in 1995 to $109,600
in 1996, due mainly to higher employee time charges from the General Partners as
a result of a larger investment property portfolio.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
-----------------------------
NOTE 1. THE PARTNERSHIP AND A SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
----------------------------------------------------------------
The Partnership
- ---------------
Windsor Park Properties 7, A California Limited Partnership (the Partnership),
was formed in June 1989 for the purpose of acquiring and holding existing
manufactured home communities for investment. The General Partners of the
Partnership are The Windsor Corporation, a California corporation, and John A.
Coseo, Jr., chief executive officer, president and principal stockholder of The
Windsor Corporation.
The Partnership was funded through a public offering of 250,000 limited
partnership units at $100 per unit, which commenced in March 1990 and terminated
in January 1992. The Partnership term is set to expire on December 31, 2005;
however, the Partnership may either be dissolved earlier or extended under
certain circumstances. The Partnership may be extended at the recommendation of
the General Partners with approval of a majority of the Limited Partners.
The following is a summary of the Partnership's significant accounting policies:
Property Held for Investment
- ----------------------------
Property held for investment is recorded at the lower of cost or estimated net
realizable value after disposition costs, and depreciated over various estimated
useful lives (building and improvements - 10 to 20 years; fixtures and equipment
- - 3 to 5 years) using the straight-line method. When assets are sold or
otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed
from the accounts, and any gain or loss is included in net income. Repairs and
maintenance are charged to operations as incurred.
In 1996, the Partnership adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of". Accordingly, property held for investment
is reviewed for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying values of the properties may not be
recoverable. Impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying
value of the property and its fair value. The adoption of SFAS No. 121 did not
have an effect on the 1996 financial statements of the Partnership.
Investments In Joint Ventures
- -----------------------------
The investments in joint ventures are accounted for by the equity method as the
Partnership does not exercise control over these ventures.
Financing Costs
- ---------------
Financing costs are amortized to interest expense over the life of the note
using the level yield method.
Income Taxes
- ------------
Under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and the California Revenue and
Taxation Code, partnerships are generally not subject to income taxes. The tax
effect of any income or loss accrues
17
<PAGE>
to the individual partners.
Net Income per Limited Partnership Unit
- ---------------------------------------
Net income per limited partnership unit is calculated based on the weighted
average number of limited partnership units outstanding during the year and the
net income allocated to the limited partners. The weighted average number of
limited partnership units outstanding during the years ended December 31, 1996
and 1995 was 158,026 and 158,725, respectively.
Statements of Cash Flows
- ------------------------
For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Partnership considers all
highly-liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.
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.
NOTE 2. PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
---------------------
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, the maximum liability of the
Limited Partners is the amount of their capital contributions. The number of
limited partnership units outstanding at December 31, 1996 and 1995 was 157,865
and 158,140, respectively, which represented capital contributions of
$15,786,500 and $15,814,000, respectively. During the years ended December 31,
1996 and 1995, the Partnership repurchased 275 units and 962 units,
respectively, for $16,500 and $71,800, respectively. The General Partners owned
91 units at both December 31, 1996 and 1995.
The General Partners are entitled to receive from the Partnership various fees
and compensation which are summarized as follows:
Operational Stage
- -----------------
Certain investment properties are managed by The Windsor Corporation (TWC). For
management services, TWC receives 5% of gross property receipts. During the
years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, TWC received fees of $36,100 and
$12,500, respectively.
The profits, losses and cash distributions of the Partnership during the
operational stage are allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the
General Partners. During the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, the
General Partners received cash distributions from operations of $11,700 and
$11,400, respectively.
The Partnership reimburses TWC for certain direct expenses, and employee,
executive and administrative time which are incurred on the Partnership's
behalf. The Partnership was charged $91,200 and $73,800 for such costs during
the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. These costs are
included in property operating and general and administrative expenses in the
accompanying statements of operations.
18
<PAGE>
Liquidation Stage
- -----------------
During the Partnership's liquidation stage, the total compensation paid to all
persons for the sale of Partnership properties is limited to competitive real
estate commissions, not to exceed 6% of the contract price for the sale of the
property. The General Partners may receive up to one-half of the competitive
real estate commission, not to exceed 3%, if they provide a substantial amount
of services in the sales effort. The General Partners' commission is
subordinated to the Limited Partners receiving a 6% cumulative, non-compounded,
annual return on their original invested capital.
The General Partners also receive 15% of profits, losses and cash distributions
from the sale or financing of Partnership properties after the Limited Partners
have received a 9% cumulative, non-compounded, annual return on their original
invested capital.

19
<PAGE>
In June 1995, the Partnership and an affiliated limited partnership jointly
obtained a $3,479,800 loan collateralized by the Carefree Village manufactured
home community, a jointly owned property. The Partnership's share of the loan
is $1,948,700. The loan is payable in monthly interest only installments
bearing interest at 90-day LIBOR plus 2.95% (8.47% at December 31, 1996) and is
due in June 2002. The Partnership and the affiliated limited partnership are
both contingently liable for the full amount of the loan.
In June 1995, the Partnership purchased a 60% interest in the Long Lake Village
manufactured home community for a cost of $868,100. In connection with the
purchase, the Partnership and the affiliated entity jointly obtained a
$1,600,000 loan collateralized by the community. The Partnership's share of the
loan is $960,000. The loan is payable in monthly interest only installments
bearing interest at 90-day LIBOR plus 2.95% (8.47% at December 31, 1996) and is
due in June 2002. The Partnership and the affiliated entity are both

NOTE 5. NOTE RECEIVABLE FROM GENERAL PARTNERS
-------------------------------------
The note receivable from general partners represents excess organization and
offering costs incurred by the Partnership and bears interest at the current
partnership distribution rate (7.5% at December 31, 1996) or local bank money
market rates, if higher. The note is due on demand but in no event later than
the termination of the Partnership. The note is collateralized by an equitable
lien on securities owned by TWC and all proceeds from real estate commissions
payable to the General Partners from the sale of Partnership properties. The
note is also personally guaranteed by John A. Coseo, Jr., General Partner. The
General Partners believe that such collateral is sufficient to secure the note
receivable from the General Partners. During the years ended December 31, 1996
and 1995, the Partnership earned interest of $49,300 and $49,600, respectively,
from the note.
NOTE 6. MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
-----------------------------------
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, accrued
expenses and other liabilities approximate fair value because of the short
maturity of the financial instruments. The General Partners believe the
carrying value of the mortgage notes payable approximates fair value based upon
interest rates available for the issuance of debt with similar terms and
maturities. The note receivable from general partners bears interest at the
current Partnership distribution rate. Based on interest rates currently
available for loans with similar terms and maturities, the General Partners
believe the fair value of the note receivable from general partners is $608,000.

NOTE 11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
-----------------
In February 1997, the Partnership purchased a 26% interest in the Apache East
Estates and Denali Park Estates manufactured home communities located in
Phoenix, Arizona. The remaining interests in the communities were purchased by
affiliated entities. The Partnership's cost of its equity interest in the
communities was $598,000. In connection with the purchase, the joint venture
obtained a $3,040,000 loan, collateralized by the communities. The
Partnership's share of this loan is $790,400. In addition, the Partnership
assumed a $500,000 note payable to the seller. The $3,040,000 loan initially
bears interest at 8.375%. In March 2000 and March 2003, the interest rate
adjusts to the yield on the 3-year Treasury Note plus 2.2%. The loan is due in
March 2006. The $500,000 loan bears interest at 8% and is due in February 1998.
In February 1997, the Partnership received a $370,000 principal paydown on the
note receivable from general partners.

Item 9. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, PROMOTERS AND CONTROL PERSONS;
-------------------------------------------------------------
COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT
-------------------------------------------------
The original general partners of the Partnership were The Windsor Corporation
(Windsor), and John A. Coseo, Jr. Mr. Coseo, his wife Patricia Ann Coseo and
their children owned a majority of the stock of Windsor.
In July 1994, Windsor merged into Windsor Group, Inc., a majority-owned
subsidiary. In conjunction with the merger, Windsor Group, Inc. changed its
name to The Windsor Corporation (Wincorp). Subsequent to the merger, Mr. Coseo,
his wife Patricia Ann Coseo and their children own a majority of the stock of
Wincorp.
Windsor and Wincorp were incorporated in 1977 and 1992, respectively, to engage
in the real estate syndication business. Since 1979 they have concentrated
solely on the acquisition, management, and sale of fully-developed manufactured
home communities through the investment programs which they sponsor.
The executive officers of Windsor and Wincorp do not receive direct compensation
from the Partnership in these capacities and are only required to spend such
time on the Partnership's affairs as is deemed necessary. Substantial amounts
of these officers' time is expected to be spent on matters unrelated to the
Partnership, particularly after the completion of its offering and acquisition
stages.
The names, ages, and nature of the positions held by the directors and executive
officers of Wincorp follow:
<TABLE>

</TABLE>
A brief background of the directors and executive officers follows.
John A. Coseo, Jr. (58) was the founder of Windsor in 1974 and has been actively
involved in all facets of the manufactured housing business since that time.
From 1979 to the present, Mr. Coseo has acted as general partner or advisor in
the acquisition and management of 56 manufactured home communities throughout
the United States. Mr. Coseo is the Chairman and chief executive officer of
Wincorp. Mr. Coseo is a general partner of seven limited partnerships which
have registered their securities under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934.
Mr. Coseo is also Chairman, chief executive officer, and a trustee of Wincorp's
first sponsored real estate investment trust, Windsor Real Estate Investment
Trust 8. Mr. Coseo is the husband of Patricia A. Coseo.
Patricia A. Coseo (55) is and has been the Secretary and a Director of Windsor
and Wincorp for the
24
