                    Condensed Notes to Financial Statements
                                        

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

     (a) General
     -----------

     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,
     owning, operating, improving, leasing, and otherwise managing for
     investment purposes income producing commercial or industrial properties.

     On March 6, 1992, 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 filed under the
     Securities Act of 1933.  The Partnership did not commence active operations
     until it received and accepted subscriptions for a minimum of 125,000 units
     on April 27, 1992.  The offering was terminated on March 3, 1993, at which
     time the Partnership had sold 1,520,967 Class A Units and 179,635 Class B
     Units representing $17,006,020 of capital contributions by investors who
     were admitted to the Partnership as Limited Partners.

     The Partnership owns interests in properties through its equity ownership
     in the following joint ventures: (i) Fund IV and Fund V Associates, a joint
     venture between the Partnership and Wells Real Estate Fund IV, L.P. (the
     "Fund IV - Fund V Joint Venture"); (ii) Fund V and Fund VI Associates, a
     joint venture between the Partnership and Wells Real Estate Fund VI, L.P.
     (the "Fund V - Fund VI Joint Venture"); and (iii) Fund V, Fund VI, and Fund
     VII Associates, a joint venture between the Partnership, Wells Real Estate
     Fund VI, L.P. and Wells Real Estate Fund VII, L.P. (the "Fund V-VI-VII
     Joint Venture").

     As of March 31, 1998, the Partnership owned interests in the following
     properties through its ownership in the foregoing joint ventures: (i) a
     four-story office building located in Jacksonville, Florida ("IBM
     Jacksonville"), which is owned by the Fund IV - Fund V Joint Venture; (ii)
     two substantially identical two-story office buildings located in Clayton
     County, Georgia (the "Medical Center"), which are owned by the Fund IV -
     Fund V Joint Venture; (iii) a four-story office building located in
     metropolitan Hartford, Connecticut (the "Hartford Building"), which is
     owned by the Fund V - Fund VI Joint Venture; (iv) two retail buildings
     located in Clayton County, Georgia ("Stockbridge Village II"), which are
     owned by the Fund V - Fund VI Joint Venture; and (v) a three-story office
     building located in Appleton, Wisconsin (the "Marathon Building"), which is
     owned by the Fund V-VI-VII Joint Venture.  All of the foregoing properties
     were acquired on an all cash basis.  For further information regarding
     these joint ventures and properties, refer to the Partnership's Form 10-K
     for the year ended December 31, 1997.

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

     The financial statements of Wells Real Estate Fund V, 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 year ended December 31, 1997.

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

     The Partnership owns interests in five properties through its investment in
     joint ventures of which four are office building properties and one is a
     retail property.  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.
     For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes
     included in the Partnership's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
     1997.

     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 1933 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 form any forward-looking
     statement made in this Report, which include construction costs which may
     exceed estimates, construction delays, lease-up risks, inability to obtain
     new tenants upon 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 $169,877 for the three months ended
     March 31, 1998, as compared to $165,291 for the three months ended March
     31, 1997.  Gross revenues and net income have increased for the three
     months  ended March 31, 1998, over 1997 levels due chiefly to increased
     income from joint ventures and a decrease in legal and accounting expenses.

                                       8
<PAGE>
 
     Net cash used in operating activities remained relatively stable for the
     three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997.  The increase in cash and cash
     equivalents from $(99,750) for the three months ended March 31, 1997, to
     $1,412 for the three months ended March 31, 1998, was due primarily to a
     decrease in investments in joint ventures.

     The Partnership made cash distributions to the Limited Partners holding
     Class A Units of $.19 per Class A Unit for the three months ended March 31,
     1998, as compared to distributions of $.17 per Class A Unit for the three
     months ended March 31, 1997.   No cash distributions were made to the
     Limited Partners holding Class B Units or to the General Partners.

     Recent Accounting Pronouncements
     --------------------------------

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAF) No. 130, "Reporting
     Comprehensive Income", requires certain transactions (e.g., unrealized
     gains/losses on available for sale securities) that are not reflected in
     net income to be displayed as other comprehensive income.  The Statement
     also requires an entity to report total comprehensive income (i.e., net
     income plus other comprehensive income) for every period in which an income
     statement is presented.  SFAS No. 130 is effective for annual and interim
     periods beginning after December 13, 1997.  None of the transactions
     required to be reported in other comprehensive income pertain to the
     Partnership; consequently, adoption of this statement had no impact on the
     partnership's disclosures.

     The General Partners have verified that all operational computer systems
     are year 2000 compliant.  This includes systems supporting accounting,
     property management and investor services.  Also, as part of this review,
     all building control systems have been verified as compliant.  The current
     line of business applications are based on compliant operating systems and
     database servers.  All of these products are scheduled for additional
     upgrades before the year 2000.  Therefore, it is not anticipated that the
     year 2000 will have significant impact on operations.

</TABLE>

     Rental income increased for the three months ended March 31, 1998, compared
     to the same period of 1997, due to a correction of straight-line rent in
     the first quarter of 1997.  A small decrease in management and leasing fees
     in first quarter 1998, over first quarter 1997, was offset by an increase
     in operating expenses, primarily accounting and administrative fees.  Cash
     distributions to the Partnership and net income allocated to the

</TABLE>

     Rental income for the Jacksonville Project remained relatively stable in
     1998, as compared to 1997 figures.  Operating expenses increased slightly
     in 1998 due to increased management and leasing expenses.  Cash
     distributions remained relatively stable for 1998 and 1997.  The
     Partnership contributed cash fundings to the Joint Venture for
     construction, which increased the Partnership's ownership interest and
     decreased Wells Fund IV's ownership interest in the Fund IV - Fund V Joint
     Venture

</TABLE>

    Rental income, expenses and cash distributions increased in 1998, over 1997,
    due primarily to an increase in the occupancy level of the project and a
    correction in the straight-line rent in 1997.  The Partnership contributed
    cash fundings to the Joint Venture for construction, which increased the
    Partnership's ownership interest in the Fund IV - Fund V Joint Venture.

</TABLE>

     Net income decreased and expenses increased in 1998, as compared to 1997,
     due primarily to an insurance reimbursement from the tenant in 1997, which
     was recorded in 1997, in other operating expenses.

     The Partnership's ownership interest in the Fund V - Fund VI Joint Venture
     decreased from 47.0% in 1997, to 46.5% in 1998, due to additional fundings
     by Wells Fund VI in 1997, which caused a decrease in the Partnership's
     ownership interest in the Fund V - Fund VI Joint Venture.

</TABLE>

    Other operating expenses decreased and net income increased in 1998, as
    compared to 1997, due primarily to a bad debt reserve recorded in the first
    quarter of 1997, for Glenn's Open Pit Bar-B-Que which had vacated 4,303
    square feet of space as of April 1, 1997. Efforts are being made to re-lease
    the space.

    The Partnership's ownership percentage in the Fund V - Fund VI Joint Venture
    decreased to 46.5% for 1998, as compared to 47.0% in 1997, due to additional
    fundings by Wells Fund VI which increased Wells Fund VI's and caused a
    decrease in the Partnership's ownership interest in the Fund V - Fund VI
    Joint Venture.
