REDWOOD EQUIPMENT LEASING INCOME FUND L.P.
Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 1997
(Unaudited)
Note 1 - The Partnership and Basis of Preparation
The accompanying financial statements of Redwood Equipment Leasing
Income Fund L.P. (the "Partnership") do not include all of the information and
note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The unaudited interim
financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods
presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The unaudited
interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements contained in the 1996 Annual Report.
Note 2 - Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Partnership considers all short-term investments with original
maturities of three months or less as cash equivalents. Cash and cash
equivalents consist of cash, money market accounts and other liquid short term
investments and are stated at cost, which approximates market value, at June 30,
1997 and December 31, 1996.
Note 3 - Related Party Transactions
The Partnership's General Partner earned an asset management fee of
$4,340 and $6,141 (3% of distributable cash distributions to investors) and
received or was due reimbursement of $8,885 and $8,025 for certain costs
incurred relating to administrative services for the Partnership for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
As the management agent, Signet is entitled to an equipment and lease
management fee equal to 1.5% of gross lease rental payments as well as a fee for
services provided in acquiring and disposing of leased assets. For the three
months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, Signet earned $8,060 and $3,054,
respectively in management and disposition fees.
Note 4 - Leases
Investment in direct finance leases with initial terms ranging from 34
to 82 months at June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996 includes the following:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>

<S> <C> <C>
Lease payments receivable $ 844,473 $ 1,259,277
Estimated residual value 483,292 542,237

</TABLE>
During the first quarter of 1997, the Partnership learned that one of
its lessees is in default under the terms of its lease. However, pursuant to the
Security Agreement and Assignment of Lease, all rental payments due from this
lessee have been guaranteed by the lease originator. The guarantee obligations
have been honored by the lease originator and accordingly, the Partnership has
timely received all rental payments due under the lease.

Note 4 - Leases - continued
During the second quarter of 1997, two lease schedules from one lessee
expired. The lessee purchased the equipment for $88,500 from the Partnership
resulting in a gain from the sale of leased equipment of $29,556.
All leases in the Partnership's portfolio are classified as direct
finance leases.
Note 5 - Net Earnings per Unit of Assigned Limited Partnership Interest
Net earnings per unit of assignee limited partnership interest is
disclosed on the Statements of Operations and is based upon 401,180 units
outstanding.
Note 6 - Subsequent Event
In August 1997, the Partnership will make a cash distribution totaling
$233,170 of which 99% will be allocated to assignee limited partners. This
distribution will be derived from principal payments received on direct finance
leases and certain other investing activities. Holders of assignee limited
partnership interests will receive cash distributions of approximately $.58 per
$25 unit.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At June 30, 1997, the Partnership had a working capital position that
included cash and cash equivalents of $369,300 and accounts payable and accrued
expenses of $14,060. The Partnership invests its cash balances in a money market
account. The Partnership is reserving $136,130 as working capital reserves, but
has the discretion to increase or decrease reserves as deemed necessary. The
unexpended offering proceeds and working capital reserves are sufficient to
satisfy the Partnership's liquidity requirements
Cash and cash equivalents increased $55,045 during the second quarter
of 1997. This increase represented the combined effect of $25,287 used by
operating activities, $169,957 received in principal payments on direct finance
leases, $88,500 received upon termination of certain direct finance leases, and
$178,125 distributed to partners.
The Partnership made a distribution of $178,125 on May 13, 1997 from
funds generated from principal payments on direct finance leases. This
distribution increased the total distributions from the Partnership to
$9,078,407 to Unitholders or 90.51% of gross offering proceeds
Results of Operations
Direct finance lease revenue decreased $15,335 during the second
quarter of 1997 as compared to the second quarter of 1996, and $28,528 during
the first six months of 1997 as compared to the first six months of 1996. This
decrease resulted from scheduled lease terminations and an expected decline in
the portion of lease payments recognized as revenue (versus return of principal)
for existing leases.
Interest income decreased $26,076 during the second quarter of 1997 as
compared to the second quarter of 1996, and $32,285 during the first six months
of 1997 as compared to the first six months of 1996, due primarily to lower cash
balances after the return of capital distribution made in March 1997.
The Partnership recognized a $29,556 gain from the sale of leased equipment
during the second quarter of 1997.
Total expenses increased by $2,273 during the second quarter of 1997 as
compared to the second quarter of 1996, and $5,209 during the first six months
of 1997 as compared to the first six months of 1996. The increases are primarily
attributable to state taxes and disposition fees earned by the Advisor.
During the first quarter of 1997, the Partnership learned that one of
its lessees is in default under the terms of its lease. However, pursuant to the
Security Agreement and Assignment of Lease, all rental payments due from this
lessee have been guaranteed by the lease originator. The guarantee obligations
have been honored by the lease originator and accordingly, the Partnership has
timely received all rental payments due under the lease.
Equipment Lease Acquisitions
During the second quarter of 1997, the Partnership made no equipment
lease acquisitions. As noted in prior reports, the Partnership has entered the
Liquidation Phase during which the remaining funds (net of reserves) were
distributed to investors. Future quarterly distributions will be dependent on
funds generated from operations, principal payments and proceeds from lease
sales. The Partnership will distribute $233,170 in August 1997 which was derived
primarily from principal payments and certain other investing activities
received during the quarter ended June 30, 1997.
