                        WELLS REAL ESTATE FUND IV, L.P.
                    (A Georgia  Public Limited Partnership)

                    Condensed Notes to Financial Statements


(1)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
     ------------------------------------------

     (a)  General
          -------

          Wells Real Estate Fund IV, L.P. (the "Partnership") is a Georgia
          public limited partnership having Leo F. Wells, III and Wells
          Partners, L.P., as General Partners. The Partnership was formed on
          October 25, 1990, for the purpose of acquiring, developing,
          constructing, owning, operating, improving, leasing and otherwise
          managing for investment purposes income-producing commercial
          properties.

          On March 4, 1991, the Partnership commenced an offering of up to
          $25,000,000 of Class A or Class B limited partnership units ($10.00
          per unit) pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-11 under the
          Securities Act of 1933. The Partnership did not commence active
          operations until it received and accepted subscriptions for 125,000
          units which occurred on May 13, 1991. The offering was terminated on
          February 29, 1992, at which time the Partnership had obtained total
          contributions of $13,614,652 representing subscriptions from 1,285
          Limited Partners.

          As of June 30, 1996, the Partnership owned interests in the following
          properties: (i) the Stockbridge Village Shopping Center, a retail
          shopping center located in Stockbridge, Georgia, southeast of Atlanta;
          (ii) the G.E. Office Building, a two-story office building located in
          Richmond, Virginia; (iii) The Medical Center Project, two
          substantially identical two-story office buildings located in Clayton
          County, Georgia; and (iv) The Jacksonville Project, a four-story
          office building located in Jacksonville, Florida. All of the foregoing
          properties were acquired on an all cash basis.

     (b)  Basis of Presentation
          ---------------------

The financial statements of Wells Real Estate Fund IV, L.P. (the "Partnership")
have been prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q and do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. These quarterly
statements have not been examined by independent accountants, but in the opinion
of the General Partners, the statements for the unaudited interim periods
presented include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature,
necessary to present a fair presentation of the results for such periods. For
further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes included in
the Partnership's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.

                                       7
<PAGE>
 
     (c)  Employees
          ---------

          The Partnership has no direct employees. The employees of Wells
          Capital, Inc., the sole general partner of Wells Partners, L.P., a
          General Partner of the Partnership, perform a full range of real
          estate services including leasing and property management, accounting,
          asset management and investor relations for the Partnership.

     (d)  Insurance
          ---------

          Wells Management Company, Inc., an affiliate of the General Partners,
          carries comprehensive liability and extended coverage with respect to
          all the properties owned directly or indirectly by the Partnership. In
          the opinion of management, the properties are adequately insured.

     (e)  Competition
          -----------

          The Partnership will experience competition for tenants from owners
          and managers of competing projects which may include the General
          Partners and their affiliates. As a result, the Partnership may be
          required to provide free rent, reduced charges for tenant improvements
          and other inducements, all of which may have an adverse impact on
          results of operations. At the time the Partnership elects to dispose
          of its properties, the Partnership will also be in competition with
          sellers of similar properties to locate suitable purchasers for its
          properties.

(2)  Investment in Joint Ventures
     ----------------------------

     The following describes the properties in which the Partnership owns an
     interest as of June 30, 1996. The Partnership does not have control over
     the operations of the joint ventures; however, it does exercise significant
     influence. Accordingly, investment in joint ventures is recorded on the
     equity method.

Fund III - Fund IV Joint Ventures
- ---------------------------------

On March 27, 1991, the Partnership and Wells Real Estate Fund III, L.P. ("Wells
Fund III"), a Georgia public limited partnership having Leo F. Wells, III and
Wells Capital, Inc., a Georgia corporation, as General Partners, formed a joint
venture known as Fund III and Fund IV Associates (the "Fund III-Fund IV Joint
Venture"). The investment objectives of Wells Fund III are substantially
identical to those of the Partnership. The Partnership holds an approximate
42.7% of equity interest in the Fund III-Fund IV Joint Venture which owns and
operates a multi-tenant retail center and an office building. As of June 30,
1996, the Partnership had contributed $6,131,677 and Wells Fund III had
contributed $8,119,603 for total contributions of $14,251,280 to the Fund III-
Fund IV Joint Venture. The Partnership owns interests in the following two
properties through the Fund III-Fund IV Joint Venture:

The entire G.E. Building is currently under a net lease to General Electric
("G.E."), a corporate office for the lighting division. The annual base rent

The occupancy rate at the G.E. Building for the quarters ended June 30 was 100%
for 1996, 1995, 1994, 1993 and 1992. The average effective annual rental per

Fund IV-Fund V Joint Venture
- ----------------------------

On April 14, 1992, the Partnership and Wells Real Estate Fund V, L.P. ("Wells
Fund V"), a Georgia public limited partnership affiliated with the Partnership
through common general partners, formed a joint venture known as Fund IV and
Fund V Associates (the "Fund IV-Fund V Joint Venture"). The investment
objectives of Wells Fund V are substantially identical to those of the
Partnership. The Partnership holds an approximate 38% equity interest in the
Fund IV-Fund V Joint Venture which owns and operates the two office buildings
described below. As of June 30, 1996, the Partnership had contributed $4,736,173
and Wells Fund V had contributed $7,719,249 for total contributions of

On June 8, 1992, the Fund IV-Fund V Joint Venture acquired 5.676 acres of real

The Medical Center Property
- ---------------------------

On September 14, 1992, the Fund IV-Fund V Joint Venture acquired 2.655 acres of
real property in Stockbridge, Georgia for $440,000 for the purpose of
constructing two substantially identical two-story office buildings containing
approximately 17,847 rentable square feet each (the "Medical Center Property").

completion of the Medical Center Property. Wells Fund V has reserve funds for
this purpose, with any excess costs which may be required to be funded out of
operating cash flow.

Construction on the first building was completed in March, 1993, and the
building shell of the second building was completed in April, 1994. Georgia
Baptist, a medical health care and urgent care facility, has leased
approximately 14,669 square feet in the first building for a term of six years
and has the option to extend the initial term of the lease for one five-year
period beginning at $18.50 per square foot with $.50 per square foot annual
increases. The base rent payable per square foot ranges from $16.00 per month

term of five years commencing in December, 1994 at an annual rental rate of
$55,704, increasing to $57,392 in the fourth year and $59,080 in the fifth year.

The occupancy rate at the Medical Center Property for the quarters ended June 30
was 69% in 1996 and 1995, 58% in 1994 and 69% in 1993, the first year of

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

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
accompanying financial statements of the Partnership and notes thereto. This
Report contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1993 and 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
including discussion and analysis of the financial condition of the Partnership,
anticipated capital expenditures required to complete certain projects, amounts
of cash distributions anticipated to be distributed to Limited Partners in the
future and certain other matters. Readers of this Report should be aware that
there are various factors that could cause actual results to differ materially
from any forward-looking statement made in the Report, which include
construction costs which may exceed estimates, construction delays, lease-up
risks, inability to obtain new tenants upon the expiration of existing leases,
and the potential need to fund tenant improvements or other capital expenditures
out of operating cash flow.

Results of Operations and Changes in Financial Conditions
- ---------------------------------------------------------

General
- -------

Gross revenues of the Partnership were $150,454 for the three months ended June
30, 1996, as compared to $213,396 for the three months ended June 30, 1995, and
$286,468 for the six months ended June 30, 1996, as compared to $399,179 for the
six months ended June 30, 1995. This decrease in gross revenues was due to
decreased equity in income of joint ventures, which was primarily due to the
increased depreciation expenses described below. The decrease in income from
1995 to 1996 was due primarily to increased depreciation expenses for the joint
ventures from 1995 to 1996 due to a change in the estimated useful lives of
buildings and improvements, as of December 31, 1995, from 40 years to 25 years
and increased legal and accounting expenses.

Expenses of the Partnership increased for the quarters ended June 30, 1996 over
1995 due to an increase in legal and accounting expenses.

The Partnership's net cash used in operating activities remained relatively
stable for 1996 and 1995. Net cash used in investing activities decreased to
zero in 1996 due to the fact that all funds available for investment in
properties have now been invested. Cash and cash equivalents remained relatively
stable for the periods ending June 30, 1996 and 1995. The Partnership
distributes cash available less reserves, and as a result, the level of cash
remains stable.

The Partnership made cash distributions to the Limited Partners holding Class A
Units of $.33 per unit for the six months ended June 30, 1996 of which $.18 was
from investment income and $.15 was a return of capital, and $.35 for the six
months ended June 30, 1995 of which $.27 was from investment income and $.08 was
a return of capital. No cash distributions were made to the Limited Partners
holding Class B Units or to the General Partners.

</TABLE>

Rental income decreased for the three and the six months ended June 30, 1996, as
compared to the same period in 1995, due to the decreased occupancy resulting
from the early termination of a lease for 8,025 square feet. Although no leases
have been signed, every effort is being made to re-lease this space. Expenses of
the property increased from $200,425 in 1995 to $269,856 in 1996 due primarily
to the increase in depreciation expenses as a result of the change in the
estimated useful lives of buildings and improvements as previously discussed
under the "General" section of "Results of Operations and Changes in Financial
Condition" and timing differences in billing tenant expense reimbursement and an
extraordinary painting expenditure.

Rental income remained constant for 1996 and 1995. Total expenses increased in
1996 over 1995, and accordingly, net income decreased in 1996, as compared to
1995, due primarily to the increase in depreciation expenses as a result of the
change in the estimate useful lives of buildings and improvements as previously
discussed under the "General" section of "Results of Operations and Changes in
Financial Condition".

</TABLE>

Rental income has decreased slightly in 1996 as compared to 1995 due to an
overstatement of rental income in 1995 which was corrected in the third quarter
of 1995. Expenses increased in 1996 as compared to 1995 due primarily to
increased depreciation caused by the change in the estimated useful lives of
buildings and improvements as previously discussed under the "General" section
of "Results of Operations and Changes in Financial Condition". The increase in
depreciation was partially offset by savings in various operating expenses. Cash
fundings to the Joint Venture for construction were contributed by Wells Fund V
which resulted in a decrease in the Partnership's ownership interest and an
increase in Wells Fund V's ownership interest in the Fund IV-Fund V Joint
Venture.

</TABLE>

Rental income increased in 1996 over 1995 due to increased lease up at the
Medical Center Property. Leases are being actively pursued on the remaining
11,000 rentable square feet of vacant space with strong interest in an
approximate 2,000 square feet. Expenses have increased in 1996 over 1995 levels
due primarily to increased operating expenses of the buildings, the increase in
depreciation expenses caused by the change in the estimated useful lives of
buildings and improvements as previously discussed under the "General" section
of "Results of Operations and Changes in Financial Condition" and a timing
difference in operating expense billings to tenants.

Cash distributions allocated to the Partnership have decreased over prior year
levels due primarily to increased operating expenditures of the property which
were partly offset by the increase in rental income. Cash fundings to the Joint
Venture for construction were contributed by Wells Fund V which resulted in an
increase in its ownership interest and a decrease in the Partnership's ownership
interest in the Fund IV - Fund V Joint Venture.
