                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)



NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of United Investors
Growth Properties II (the "Partnership" or "Registrant") have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of
Regulation S-B.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements.  In the opinion of United Investors Real Estate, Inc. (the
"General Partner"), a Delaware corporation, all adjustments (consisting of
normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the three month period ended March 31,
1999, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
fiscal year ending December 31, 1999.  For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
Partnership's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December
31, 1998.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include all the accounts of the
Partnership and its 100% owned limited liability company, Stone Ridge
Apartments, L.L.C. and its 99.99% owned partnership, Riverwalk Apartments
Limited Partnership ("Riverwalk").  The Partnership is the sole general partner
of Riverwalk and an unaffiliated individual is the sole limited partner.  The
Partnership is able to control the major operating and financial policies of
Riverwalk.  As a result, the Partnership consolidates its interest in these two
entities, whereby all accounts are included in the consolidated financial
statements of the Partnership with all interentity accounts being eliminated.
The minority interest of the limited partner of Riverwalk is not material to the
Partnership.

NOTE B - TRANSFER OF CONTROL

Pursuant to a series of transactions which closed on October 1, 1998 and
February 26, 1999, Insignia Financial Group, Inc. and Insignia Properties Trust
merged into Apartment Investment and Management Company ("AIMCO"), a publicly
traded real estate investment trust, with AIMCO being the surviving corporation
(the "Insignia Merger"). As a result, AIMCO acquired 100% ownership interest in
the General Partner.  The General Partner does not believe that this transaction
will have a material effect on the affairs and operations of the Partnership.

NOTE C - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED PARTIES

The Partnership has no employees and is dependent on the General Partner and its
affiliates for the management and administration of all partnership activities.
The Partnership Agreement provides for payments to affiliates for property
management services based on a percentage of revenue and for reimbursement of
certain expenses incurred by affiliates on behalf of the Partnership.  The
following payments were made to affiliates of the General Partner for the three
month periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998:


                                                             1999     1998

                                                            (in thousands)


Property management fees (included in operating expenses)    $ 21     $ 21


Reimbursements for services of affiliates (included in

  general and administrative and operating expenses)          6         6


During the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, affiliates of the General
Partner were entitled to receive 5% of gross receipts from all of the
Registrant's properties as compensation for providing property management
services.  The Registrant paid to such affiliates approximately $21,000 for
management fees for both the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998.

An affiliate of the General Partner received reimbursement of accountable
administrative expenses amounting to approximately $6,000 for both the three
months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998.

NOTE D - SEGMENT REPORTING

The Partnership has one reportable segment: residential properties. The
Registrant's residential property segment consists of two apartment complexes,
one located in Houston, Texas and another located in Overland Park, Kansas. The
Partnership rents apartment units to tenants for terms that are typically twelve
months or less.

The Partnership  evaluates performance based on net income.  The accounting
policies of the reportable segment are the same as those of the Partnership as
described in the Partnership's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 1998.

The Partnership's reportable segment consists of investment properties that
offer similar products and services.  Although each of the investment properties
is managed separately, they have been aggregated into one segment as they
provide services with similar types of products and customers.

Segment information for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 is shown
in the tables below (in thousands).  The "Other" column includes Partnership
administration related items and income and expense not allocated to reportable
segments.

NOTE E - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In March 1998, a limited partner of the Partnership commenced an action in the
Circuit Court for Jackson County, Missouri entitled Bond Purchase LLC v. United
Investors Growth II, L.P., et al.  The complaint claims that the Partnership and
the General Partner breached certain contractual and fiduciary duties allegedly
owed to the claimant and seeks damages and injunctive relief.  This case was
settled on April 9, 1999.  The Partnership is responsible for a portion of the
settlement costs.  These expenses are not expected to have a material effect on
the Partnership's overall operations.

The Partnership is unaware of any other pending or outstanding litigation that
is not of a routine nature arising in the ordinary course of business.

ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

The matters discussed in this Form 10-QSB contain certain forward-looking
statements and involve risks and uncertainties (including changing market
conditions, competitive and regulatory matters, etc.) detailed in the
disclosures contained in this Form 10-QSB and the other filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission made by the Registrant from time to time.
The discussion of the Registrant's business and results of operations, including
forward-looking statements pertaining to such matters, does not take into
account the effects of any changes to the Registrant's business and results of
operation.  Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from those
projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors,
including those identified herein.

The Partnership's investment properties consist of two apartment complexes.  The
following table sets forth the average occupancy of the properties for each of
the three month periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998:

                                         Average Occupancy
Property                                1999          1998
Riverwalk
 Houston, Texas                          95%           97%
Stone Ridge
 Overland Park, Kansas                   95%           99%

The General Partner attributes the decrease in occupancy at Stone Ridge to a
tighter rental market in Overland Park, Kansas due to increased home purchases
in the area.

Results of Operations

The Registrant's net income for the three months ended March 31, 1999 was
approximately $35,000 as compared to net income of approximately $19,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1998.  The increase in net income is due to a
decrease in total expenses. Total revenue remained constant due to an increase
in rental income which was offset by a decrease in other income.  Rental income
increased primarily as a result of average annual rental rate increases at both
properties during the three months ended March 31, 1999, which was partially
offset by occupancy decreases at both properties.  Other income decreased due to
a decrease in interest income due to decreased cash balances in interest-bearing
accounts.

Total expenses decreased primarily due to decreased operating expenses, property
taxes, and general and administrative expenses.  Operating expenses decreased
due to decreased maintenance expenses at Riverwalk and decreased insurance
premiums at both properties due to a change in insurance companies.  Property
taxes decreased due to a decrease in tax rates at Stone Ridge.  General and
administrative expenses decreased due to decreased professional fees associated
with managing the Partnership.  Included in general and administrative expenses
at both March 31, 1999 and 1998 are reimbursements to the General Partner
allowed under the Partnership Agreement associated with its management of the
Partnership.  Costs associated with the quarterly and annual communications with
investors and regulatory agencies and the annual audit required by the
Partnership Agreement are also included.

As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the General Partner
monitors the rental market environment of its investment properties to assess
the feasibility of increasing rents, maintaining or increasing occupancy levels
and protecting the Partnership from increases in expense.  As part of this plan,
the General Partner attempts to protect the Partnership from the burden of
inflation-related increases in expenses by increasing rents and maintaining a
high overall occupancy level. However, due to changing market conditions, which
can result in the use of rental concessions and rental reductions to offset
softening market conditions, there is no guarantee that the General Partner will
be able to sustain such a plan.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 1999, the Registrant had cash and cash equivalents of approximately
$378,000 as compared to approximately $1,205,000 at March 31, 1998.  The
increase in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $62,000 since December
31, 1998, is due to approximately $97,000 of cash provided by operating
activities, which was partially offset by approximately $19,000 of cash used in
investing activities and approximately $16,000 of cash used in financing
activities.  Cash used in investing activities consisted primarily of property
improvements and replacements which was partially offset by net receipts from
escrow accounts maintained by the mortgage lender.  Cash used in financing
activities consisted of payments of principal made on the mortgages encumbering
the Registrant's properties.  The Registrant invests its working capital
reserves in money market accounts.

The sufficiency of existing liquid assets to meet future liquidity and capital
expenditure requirements is directly related to the level of capital
expenditures required at the properties to adequately maintain the physical
assets and other operating needs of the Registrant and to comply with Federal,
state, and local legal and regulatory requirements.  Capital improvements
planned for each of the Registrant's properties are detailed below.

Riverwalk Apartments

Riverwalk Apartments spent approximately $17,000 on capital improvements for the
three months ended March 31, 1999.  These improvements consisted primarily of
balcony replacements and carpet and vinyl replacements.  These improvements were
funded from operating cash flow.  Based on a report received from an independent
third party consultant analyzing necessary exterior improvements and estimates
made by the General Partner on interior improvements, it is estimated that the
property requires approximately $198,000 of capital improvements over the near-
term.  The Partnership has budgeted, but is not limited to, capital improvements
of approximately $214,000 for 1999 at this property consisting primarily of
landscaping, air conditioning unit replacement and carpet and vinyl replacement.

Stone Ridge Apartments

Stone Ridge Apartments spent approximately $6,000 on capital improvements for
the three months ended March 31, 1999, consisting primarily of carpet and vinyl
replacements.  These improvements were funded from replacement reserves.  Based
on a report received from an independent third party consultant analyzing
necessary exterior improvements and estimates made by the General Partner on
interior improvements, it is estimated that the property requires approximately
$115,000 of capital improvements over the near-term.  The Partnership has
budgeted, but is not limited to, capital improvements of approximately $117,000
for 1999 at this property consisting primarily of landscaping, parking lot
repairs, carpet and vinyl replacement and other structural improvements.

The additional capital expenditures will be incurred only if cash is available
from operations or from Partnership reserves.  To the extent that such budgeted
capital improvements are completed, the Registrant's distributable cash flow, if
any, may be adversely affected at least in the short term.

The Registrant's current assets are thought to be sufficient for any near term
needs (exclusive of capital improvements) of the Registrant.  The mortgage
indebtedness for Riverwalk of approximately $2,576,000 has a balloon payment of
approximately $2,465,000 due on April 1, 2002. The mortgage indebtedness for
Stone Ridge of approximately $3,259,000 has a balloon payment of approximately
$3,018,000 due on December 1, 2004. The General Partner will attempt to
refinance such indebtedness and/or sell the properties prior to their maturity
dates. If the property cannot be refinanced or sold for a sufficient amount, the
Registrant will risk losing such property through foreclosure.

No cash distributions were made to partners during the three months ended March
31, 1999.  During the three months ended March 31, 1998, cash distributions were
approximately $335,000 ($16.07 per limited partnership unit).  This distribution
consisted of a portion of the proceeds from the refinancing of Stone Ridge
Apartments.  Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of net cash
generated from operations, the availability of cash reserves and the timing of
debt maturities, refinancings and property sales.  The Partnership's
distribution policy will be reviewed on a quarterly basis.  There can be no
assurance, however, that the Partnership will generate sufficient funds from
operations after required capital expenditures to permit any distributions to
its partners in 1999 or subsequent periods.

Potential Tender Offer

On October 1, 1998, Insignia Financial Group, Inc. merged into AIMCO, a real
estate investment trust, whose Class A Common Shares are listed on the New York
Stock Exchange.  As a result of such merger, AIMCO and AIMCO Properties, L.P., a
Delaware limited partnership and the operating partnership of AIMCO ("AIMCO OP")
acquired indirect control of the General Partner.  AIMCO and its affiliates
currently do not own any of the limited partnership interests in the
Partnership.  There is a substantial likelihood that, within a short period of
time, AIMCO OP will offer to acquire limited partnership interests in the
Partnership for cash, preferred units or common units of limited partnerships
interests in AIMCO OP.  While such an exchange offer is possible, no definite
plans exist as to when or whether to commence such an exchange offer, or as to
the terms of any such exchange offer, and it is possible that none will occur.

A registration statement relating to these securities has been filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission but has not yet become effective.  These
securities may not be sold nor may offers to buy be accepted prior to the time
the registration statement becomes effective.  This Form 10-QSB shall not
constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall
there be any sale of these securities in any state in which such offer,
solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or
qualification under the securities laws of any such state.

Year 2000 Compliance

General Description of the Year 2000 Issue and the Nature and Effects of the
Year 2000 on Information Technology (IT) and Non-IT Systems

The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four digits to define the applicable year.  The Partnership
is dependent upon the General Partner and its affiliates for management and
administrative services ("Managing Agent").  Any of the computer programs or
hardware that have date-sensitive software or embedded chips may recognize a
date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000.  This could result
in a system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations,
including, among other things, a temporary inability to process transactions,
send invoices, or engage in similar normal business activities.

Over the past two years, the Managing Agent has determined that it will be
required to modify or replace significant portions of its software and certain
hardware so that those systems will properly utilize dates beyond December 31,
1999.  The Managing Agent presently believes that with modifications or
replacements of existing software and certain hardware, the Year 2000 issue can
be mitigated. However, if such modifications and replacements are not made, or
not completed in time, the Year 2000 issue could have a material impact on the
operations of the Partnership.

The Managing Agent's plan to resolve Year 2000 issues involves four phases:
assessment, remediation, testing, and implementation.  To date, the Managing
Agent has fully completed its assessment of all the information systems that
could be significantly affected by the Year 2000, and has begun the remediation,
testing and implementation phases on both hardware and software systems.
Assessments are continuing in regards to embedded systems.  The status of each
is detailed below.

Status of Progress in Becoming Year 2000 Compliant, Including Timetable for
Completion of Each Remaining Phase

Computer Hardware:

During 1997 and 1998, the Managing Agent identified all of the computer systems
at risk and formulated a plan to repair or replace each of the affected systems.
In August 1998, the mainframe system used by the Managing Agent became fully
functional.  In addition to the mainframe, PC-based network servers, routers and
desktop PCs were analyzed for compliance.  The Managing Agent has begun to
replace each of the non-compliant network connections and desktop PCs and, as of
March 31, 1999, had completed approximately 75% of this effort.

The total cost to the Managing Agent to replace the PC-based network servers,
routers and desktop PCs is expected to be approximately $1.5 million of which
$1.3 million has been incurred to date.  The remaining network connections and
desktop PCs are expected to be upgraded to Year 2000 compliant systems by July
31, 1999.

Computer Software:

The Managing Agent utilizes a combination of off-the-shelf, commercially
available software programs as well as custom-written programs that are designed
to fit specific needs.  Both of these types of programs were studied, and
implementation plans written and executed with the intent of repairing or
replacing any non-compliant software programs.

During 1998, the Managing Agent began converting the existing property
management and rent collection systems to its management properties Year 2000
compliant systems.  The estimated additional costs to convert such systems at
all properties, is $200,000, and the implementation and the testing process is
expected to be completed by July 31, 1999.

The final software area is the office software and server operating systems.
The Managing Agent has upgraded all non-compliant office software systems on
each PC and has upgraded 80% of the server operating systems.  The remaining
server operating systems are planned to be upgraded to be Year 2000 compliant by
July 31, 1999.

Operating Equipment:

The Managing Agent has operating equipment, primarily at the property sites,
which needed to be evaluated for Year 2000 compliance.  In September 1997, the
Managing Agent began taking a census and inventory of embedded systems
(including those devices that use time to control systems and machines at
specific properties, for example elevators, heating, ventilating, and air
conditioning systems, security and alarm systems, etc.).

The Managing Agent has chosen to focus its attention mainly upon security
systems, elevators, heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems, telephone
systems and switches, and sprinkler systems.  While this area is the most
difficult to fully research adequately, management has not yet found any major
non-compliance issues that put the Managing Agent at risk financially or
operationally.  The Managing Agent intends to have a third-party conduct an
audit of these systems and report their findings by July 31, 1999.

Any of the above operating equipment that has been found to be non-compliant to
date has been replaced or repaired.  To date, these have consisted only of
security systems and phone systems.  As of March 31, 1999, the Managing Agent
has evaluated approximately 86% of the operating equipment for the Year 2000
compliance.

The total cost incurred for all properties managed by the Managing Agent as of
March 31, 1999 to replace or repair the operating equipment was approximately
$400,000.  The Managing Agent estimates the cost to replace or repair any
remaining operating equipment is approximately $325,000, which is expected to be
completed by August 30, 1999.

The Managing Agent continues to have "awareness campaigns" throughout the
organization designed to raise awareness and report any possible compliance
issues regarding operating equipment within its enterprise.

Nature and Level of Importance of Third Parties and Their Exposure to the Year
2000

The Managing Agent continues to conduct surveys of its banking and other vendor
relationships to assess risks regarding their Year 2000 readiness.  The Managing
Agent has banking relationships with three major financial institutions, all of
which have indicated their compliance efforts will be complete before May 1999.
The Managing Agent has updated data transmission standards with two of the three
financial institutions.  The Managing Agent's contingency plan in this regard is
to move accounts from any institution that cannot be certified Year 2000
compliant by June 1, 1999.

The Partnership does not rely heavily on any single vendor for goods and
services, and does not have significant suppliers and subcontractors who share
information systems (external agent).  To date the Partnership is not aware of
any external agent with a Year 2000 compliance issue that would materially
impact the Partnership's results of operations, liquidity, or capital resources.
However, the Partnership has no means of ensuring that external agents will be
Year 2000 compliant.

The Managing Agent does not believe that the inability of external agents to
complete their Year 2000 remediation process in a timely manner will have a
material impact on the financial position or results of operations of the
Partnership.  However, the effect of non-compliance by external agents is not
readily determinable.

Costs to Address Year 2000

The total cost of the Year 2000 project to the Managing Agent is estimated at
$3.5 million and is being funded from operating cash flows.  To date, the
Managing Agent has incurred approximately $2.8 million ($0.6 million expensed
and $2.2 million capitalized for new systems and equipment) related to all
phases of the Year 2000 project.  Of the total remaining project costs,
approximately $0.5 million is attributable to the purchase of new software and
operating equipment, which will be capitalized.  The remaining $0.2 million
relates to repair of hardware and software and will be expensed as incurred.
The Partnership's portion of these costs are not material.

Risks Associated with the Year 2000

The Managing Agent believes it has an effective program in place to resolve the
Year 2000 issue in a timely manner.  As noted above, the Managing Agent has not
yet completed all necessary phases of the Year 2000 program.  In the event that
the Managing Agent does not complete any additional phases, certain worst case
scenarios could occur.  The worst case scenarios could include elevators,
security and heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems that read
incorrect dates and operate with incorrect schedules (e.g., elevators will
operate on Monday as if it were Sunday).  Although such a change would be
annoying to residents, it is not business critical.

In addition, disruptions in the economy generally resulting from Year 2000
issues could also adversely affect the Partnership.  The Partnership could be
subject to litigation for, among other things, computer system failures,
equipment shutdowns or failure to properly date business records.  The amount of
potential liability and lost revenue cannot be reasonably estimated at this
time.

Contingency Plans Associated with the Year 2000

The Managing Agent has contingency plans for certain critical applications and
is working on such plans for others.  These contingency plans involve, among
other actions, manual workarounds and selecting new relationships for such
activities as banking relationships and elevator operating systems.

                          PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In March 1998, a limited partner of the Partnership commenced an action in the
Circuit Court for Jackson County, Missouri entitled Bond Purchase LLC v. United
Investors Growth II, L.P., et al.  The complaint claims that the Partnership and
the General Partner breached certain contractual and fiduciary duties allegedly
owed to the claimant and seeks damages and injunctive relief.  This case was
settled on April 9, 1999.  The Partnership is responsible for a portion of the
settlement costs.  These expenses are not expected to have a material effect on
the Partnership's overall operations.
