         Financial Statements as of December 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994

                   REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To the Partners of
Wells Real Estate Fund V, L.P. and
Wells Real Estate Fund VI, L.P.:


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of THE HARTFORD BUILDING as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995 and the related statements of income, partners'
capital, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 1996. These financial statements are the responsibility of the building's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Hartford Building as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995 and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

                              THE HARTFORD BUILDING


                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                        DECEMBER 31, 1996, 1995, AND 1994



  1.  ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      Organization and Business

      The Hartford Building ("Hartford") is a four-story office building located
      in Southington, Connecticut. The building is owned by Fund V and VI
      Associates, a joint venture between Wells Real Estate Fund V, L.P. ("Fund
      V") and Wells Real Estate Fund VI, L.P. ("Fund VI"). Fund V owns 47%, 48%,
      and 52% of Hartford and Fund VI owns 53%, 52% and 48% of Hartford at
      December 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively. Allocation of net income
      (loss) and distributions are made in accordance with ownership
      percentages.

      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.

      Income Taxes

      Hartford is not deemed to be a taxable entity for federal income tax
      purposes.

      Real Estate Assets

      Real estate assets are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation.
      Major improvements and betterments are capitalized when they extend the
      useful life of the related asset. All repairs and maintenance are expensed
      as incurred.

      In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued 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," which was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
      1995. SFAS No. 121 establishes standards for determining when impairment
      losses on long-lived assets have occurred and how impairment losses should
      be measured. Hartford adopted SFAS No. 121 effective January 1, 1995. The
      impact of adopting SFAS No. 121 was not material to the financial
      statements of Hartford.

      Management continually monitors events and changes in circumstances which
      could indicate that carrying amounts of real estate assets may not be
      recoverable. When events 
<PAGE>
 
                                      -2-

      or changes in circumstances are present which indicate that the carrying
      amount of real estate assets may not be recoverable, management assesses
      the recoverability of real estate assets under SFAS No. 121 by determining
      whether the carrying value of such real estate assets will be recovered
      through the future cash flows expected from the use of the asset and its
      eventual disposition. Management has determined that there has been no
      impairment in the carrying value of the Hartford real estate assets as of
      December 31, 1996.

      Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the
      estimated useful lives of the real estate assets. Effective October 1,
      1995, Hartford revised its estimate of the useful lives of buildings and
      improvements from 40 to 25 years. This change was made to better reflect
      the estimated periods during which such assets will remain in service. The
      change had the effect of increasing depreciation expense approximately
      $29,487 in the fourth quarter of 1995 and $121,970 in the year ended
      December 31, 1996.

      Revenue Recognition

      The lease on the Hartford real estate assets is classified as an operating
      lease, and the related rental income is recognized on a straight-line
      basis over the terms of the lease.


  2.  RENTAL INCOME

      The future minimum rental income due Hartford under noncancelable
      operating leases at December 31, 1996 is as follows:

      One tenant contributed 100% of rental income for the year ended December
      31, 1996 and represents 100% of the future minimum rental income above.


  3.  RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

      Hartford entered into a property management agreement with Wells
      Management Company, Inc. ("Wells Management"), an affiliate of Hartford.
      In consideration for supervising the management of Hartford, Hartford will
      generally pay Wells Management management and leasing fees equal to (a) 3%
      of the gross revenues for management and 3% of the gross revenues for
      leasing (aggregate maximum of 6%) plus a separate fee for the one-time
      initial lease-up of newly constructed properties in an amount not to
      exceed the fee customarily charged in arm's-length transactions by others
      rendering similar services in the same geographic area for similar
      properties or (b) in the case of commercial properties which are leased on
      a long-term net basis (ten or more years), 1% of the gross 
<PAGE>
 
                                      -3-

      revenues except for initial leasing fees equal to 3% of the gross revenues
      over the first five years of the lease term.

      Hartford incurred management and leasing fees of $28,700, $28,700, and
      $27,554 for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994,
      respectively, which were paid to Wells Management.


  4.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

      Management, after consultation with legal counsel, is not aware of any
      significant litigation or claims against Hartford. In the normal course of
      business, Hartford may become subject to such litigation or claims.
