                     (a limited partnership)

            NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)


(1)  Accounting and Financial Reporting

          The financial statements included herein are unaudited;
     however, the information reflects all adjustments (consisting
     solely of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the    
     opinion of management, necessary to a fair presentation of the
     financial position, results of operations and cash flows for
     the interim periods.   Certain information and footnote     
     disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared
     in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
     have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and   
     regulations, although the Registrant believes that the      
     disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not
     misleading.  It is suggested that these financial statements
     be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the
     notes thereto included in the Registrant's latest annual    
     report on Form 10-K.

          The results of operations for the three and six month
     periods ended June 30, 1994 and 1993 are not necessarily
     indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

(2)  Commitments and Contingencies

          In connection with the sale of one property, the
     Registrant entered into a management agreement whereby it is
     obligated to advance funds to the buyer, on a secured basis,
     to fund cash flow deficits, as defined. Advances made during
     the six months ended June 30, 1994 were approximately 
     $ 114,000.  On July 7, 1994, such property was reacquired by
     the Registrant (refer to note 4).

          The Registrant has secured irrevocable letters of credit
     of approximately $ 1,817,000 which primarily serve as       
     additional collateral securing certain financing, and utility
     and tenant security deposit bonds.







(3)  Sale of Real Estate Investment

          On June 2, 1994, the Registrant sold Woodlake Apartments
     for $ 22,055,000.  In connection with the sale the buyer
     assumed the existing first mortgage secured by the property in
     the amount of $ 17, 476,000.  For the three and six months
     ended June 30, 1994, the Registrant recognized a gain on sale
     of real estate investment of $ 6,442,000.

(4) Subsequent Events

          On July 7, 1994, the Registrant reacquired Nob Hill
     Apartments for $ 700,000 cash subject to an existing first
     lien.  Prior to the reacquisition, the Registrant owned
     junior liens secured by Nob Hill with a carrying amount of 
     $ 5,772,000 net of deferred gain of $ 5,179,000 and allowance
     for possible loan losses of $ 5,212,000.  In connection with
     this transaction, these liens were extinguished.


(5)  Other Matters

          Due to the continuing decline in commercial office rents
     in the downtown Los Angeles office market, cash flow generated
     by the International Jewelry Center has not been sufficient to
     carry debt service on the mortgage encumbering the property. 
     Discussions with the lender on restructuring the terms of the
     mortgage note are on going and during this time, the
     Registrant has only been paying debt service based on
     available cash flow from the building to be applied to debt
     service and ground rent.  Although discussions with the lender
     have been open and cooperative, the lender declared the loan
     in default in November 1993. The lender has not taken any
     action to accelerate the mortgage debt or foreclose upon the
     property, however, there can be no assurance that a permanent
     restructuring will be agreed upon or that the rental market
     will stabilize or improve so that the Registrant will be able
     to perform such a restructuring and allow the Registrant to
     continue to hold this property.










    ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
               CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
            THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1994 


     General

          The financial statements as of and for the three and six
     month period ended June 30, 1994 reflect the operations of
     three  office properties, one shopping center, four
     residential garden apartment properties and two joint
     ventures, although one of the garden apartment properties was
     sold in June 1994 (as referred to in the notes to the
     Financial Statements).  
          
          Changes in Total Income and Net Loss are in part
     attributable to the sale of 400 Office Park office building
     and Oakwood mortgage note, and the reacquisition of Cherry
     Hill Office Center in the third quarter of 1993 and the sale
     of Woodlake Village Apartments in June 1994.
     
          Total income for the three months ended June 30,  1994
     increased to approximately $ 6,529,000 from approximately 
     $ 6,458,000 for the three months ended June  30, 1993 and   
     there was net income after gain on sale of investments in   
     real estate of approximately $ 4,069,000 for the three months
     ended June 30, 1994 compared to loss of $ 1,500,000 for the
     three months ended June 30, 1993.

          Total income for the six months ended June 30, 1994
     decreased to approximately $ 13,408,000 from approximately 
     $ 13,992,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1993.  There
     was net income after gain on sale of investments in real
     estate of approximately $ 1,552,000 for the six months ended
     June 30, 1994 compared with a net loss of $ 2,650,000 for the
     six months ended June 30, 1993.
     
     Holiday Park Apartments

          Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1994
     increased to $ 269,000 from $ 254,000 for the three months
     ended June 30, 1993.  There was a net loss after depreciation
     and mortgage interest expense for the three months ended June
     30, 1994 of $ 19,000 compared with net loss of $ 7,000 for
     the three months ended June 30, 1993. The decrease in net
     income is due to an increase in real estate operating
     expenses.  Operating expenses are higher primarily due to
     increases in non-capital replacement costs ($ 17,000) and real
     estate taxes ($ 7,000).                                      





          Total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 1994
     increased to $ 538,000 from $ 517,000 for the six months ended
     June 30, 1993.  Net loss after mortgage interest and
     depreciation expense increased to $ 30,000 for the six months
     ended June 30, 1994 compared with a net loss of $ 2,000 for
     the six months ended June 30, 1993.

     Meadow Wood Apartments
     
          Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1994
     increased to $ 1,047,000 from $ 1,013,000 for the three months
     ended June 30,1993. There was a net loss after depreciation
     and mortgage interest expense for the three months ended June
     30, 1994 of $ 72,000 compared with a net loss of $ 84,000 for
     the three months ended June 30, 1993.

          Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1994
     increased to $ 2,108,000 from $ 2,000,000 for the six months
     ended June 30, 1993.  Net loss after mortgage interest and
     depreciation expense decreased to $ 77,000 for the six months
     ended June 30, 1994 compared with a net loss of $ 139,000 for
     the six months ended June 30, 1993.

          The increase in revenue for the six months ended June 30
     is primarily is due to an increase in base rent ($ 104,000). 
     The decrease in net loss for the six months ended June 30,1994
     is due primarily to the increase in base rent ($ 104,000),
     partially offset due to increases in utilities ($ 14,000),
     professional fees ($ 14,000), and general & administrative
     costs ($ 9,000).

     Sahara Palms Apartments

          Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1994
     increased to $ 490,000 from $ 451,000 for the three months
     ended June 30, 1993.  There was a net loss after depreciation
     and mortgage interest expense for the three months ended June 
     30, 1994 of $ 54,000 compared with a net loss of $ 58,000 for
     the three months ended June 30, 1993.

          The increase in revenues is primarily the result of an
     increase in occupancy from 96% at June 30, 1993 to 97.1%  at
     June 30, 1994. Operating expenses are higher primarily due to
     an increase  in payroll costs ($ 21,000).                    
                         
          Total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 1994
     increased to $ 985,000 from $ 908,000 for the six months ended
     June 30, 1993.  Net loss after mortgage interest and
     depreciation expense decreased to $ 84,000 for the six months
     ended June 30, 1994 compared with a net loss of $ 116,000  for
     the six months ended June 30 1993.


     Woodlake Village / Redwood Village

          Total revenues for the period from April 1, 1994 through
     June 1,1994 (date of sale) decreased to $ 616,000 from 
     $ 893,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1993.  There was
     a net loss after depreciation and mortgage interest expense
     for the period from April 1, 1994 through June 1, 1994 (date
     of sale) $ 92,000 compared with a net loss of $ 160,000 for
     the three months ended June 30, 1993. 

          Total revenue for the period from January 1, 1994 through
     June 1, 1994 (date of sale) decreased to $ 1,530,000 from 
     $ 1,832,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1993.  Net loss
     after mortgage interest and depreciation expense decreased to
     $ 214,531  for the period from January 1, 1994 through June 1,
     1994 (date of sale) compared  with a net loss of $  290,500
     for the six months ended June 30, 1993.

          As mentioned in the footnotes to the Financial
     Statements, the Registrant sold Woodlake Village/ Redwood
     Village Apartments on June  1, 1994 for $  22,055,000.  A
     gain on sale of investments in real estate of $  6,442,000   
     was reported for the three and six months ended June 30, 1994.
     
     International Jewelry Center

          Total income for the three months ended June  30, 1994 of
     $1,606,000 was $102,000 less than total income of $1,504,000 
     for the three months ended June 30, 1993.  Net loss for the
     three months ended June 30, 1994 of $ 794,000 was an
     increase  of $ 144,000 over net loss of $ 650,000 for the
     three months ended June 30, 1993.

          Total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 1994
     decreased to $ 3,255,000 from $ 3,657,000 for the six months
     ended June 30, 1993.  Net loss after mortgage interest and
     depreciation expense increased to $ 1,604,000 for the six
     months ended June 30, 1994 compared with a net loss of 
     $ 862,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1993.
     
          The reduction in total income was due primarily to a
     decrease in average base rental of renewal and restructured
     leases ($ 504,000) and a decrease in escalation income 
     ($ 153,000), partially offset by the receipt of a settlement
     of $ 480,000 from a bankrupt tenant during the six months
     ended June 30, 1994. In addition to the reduction in total
     income, the increase in net loss was primarily due to an
     increase in real estate and other taxes ($ 81,000), an
     increase in security costs ($ 68,000) and increases in repairs
     and  maintenance costs ($ 95,000).




     Plantation Shopping Center

          Total income for the three months ended June 30, 1994 of
     $ 326,000 was $ 26,000 less than total income of $ 352,000 for
     the three months ended June 30, 1993.  Net loss for the three
     months ended June 30, 1994 of $ 386,000 was an increase of 
     $ 171,000 over a net loss of $ 215,000 for the three months
     ended June 30, 1993.
     
          Total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 1994
     increased to $ 668,000 from $ 648,000 for the six months ended
     June 30, 1993.  Net loss after mortgage interest and        
     depreciation expense increased to $ 531,000 for the six months
     ended June 30, 1994 compared with a net loss of $ 423,000 for
     the six months ended June 30, 1993.

     Legal fees incurred in connection with a tenant collection
     matter contributed to the increase in net loss.

     1010 Market Street

          Total income for the three months ended June 30, 1994 of
     $ 1,446,000  was $ 205,000 higher than total income of 
     $ 1,241,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1993.  Net
     loss for the three months ended June 30, 1994 of $ 390,000   
     was $ 147,000 lower than net loss of $ 537,000 for the three
     months ended June 30, 1993.
     
          Total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 1994
     increased to $ 2,919,000 from $ 2,555,000 for the six months
     ended June 30, 1993.  Net loss after mortgage interest and  
     depreciation expense decreased to $ 559,000 for the six months
     ended June 30, 1994 compared with a net loss of $ 828,000 for
     the six months ended June 30 1993.

               The increase in total income and decrease in net
     loss is due to an increase in property occupancy, partially
     offset by lower effective base rents for new and renewal
     leases ($ 322,000) and an increase in escalation income 
     ($ 90,000). 
     
     Cherry Hill Office Center

          Cherry Hill Office Center was reacquired by the
     Registrant by  credit bid of its mortgage, such bid approved
     by the bankruptcy court, in September 1993. Total income was
     $ 390,000 and net income was $ 44,000 for the three months
     ended June 30, 1994.  Total income was $ 770,000 and net
     income was $133,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1994.
                                      
     



     Mortgage Notes Receivable Portfolio

          Interest income from the mortgage notes receivable
     portfolio decreased  $ 9,000 to $ 249,000 for the three months
     ended June 30, 1994 as compared with $ 258,000 for the three
     month period ended June 30, 1993.  The decrease reflects the
     acquisition of Cherry Hill Office Center through foreclosure
     in September 1993. Interest income for the three and six
     months ended June 30, 1993 includes only amounts received from
     the  former Cherry Hill borrower as that entity was operating
     under bankruptcy court protection during that period. 
     
     Investment in Joint Venture

          Equity in loss of joint venture increased from $ 237,000
     for the six months ended June 30, 1993 to $ 313,000    for the
     six months ended June 30, 1994.  
     
          Equity in loss of joint venture decreased $ 59,000 from 
     $ 167,000 for the three  months ended June 30, 1993 to 
     $ 108,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1994.    

          The improvement in performance in the most recent three
     month period is due to an increase in the property's occupancy
     to 85 % at June 30, 1994.  
          
     Liquidity and Capital Resources
     
          As of June 30, 1994, the Registrant had cash and cash
     equivalents of $ 3,158,000 in addition to $ 1,343,000 of
     deposits held in escrow by certain lenders for the payment of
     insurance, real estate taxes and certain capital and
     maintenance costs.  These balances are approximately 
     $ 1,978,000 more than cash and deposits held in escrow on
     December 31, 1993.
     
          The mortgage note receivable portfolio consists of notes
     secured by liens on Nob Hill Apartments.  As referred to in
     the Notes to the Financial Statements, the Registrant
     reacquired Nob Hill Apartments on July 7, 1994.  The carrying
     amount of mortgage notes receivable ,net of deferred gains and
     allowances for possible loan losses, was approximately 
     $ 5,933,000 as of June 30, 1994.

          Debt at June 30, 1994 consisted of approximately 
     $ 118.3  million of first mortgage notes payable secured by
     real estate owned by the Registrant.  The reduction in the
     balance of mortgage notes payable is substantially due to the
     sale of Woodlake Apartments in June 1994.  In that sale, the
     buyer assumed the mortgage note secured by Woodlake with an
     outstanding  balance of $ 17,476,000 on the transaction date.
     Scheduled principal payments will approximate $ 475,000 for
     the balance of 1994 and the terms of certain mortgage notes
     require monthly escrow of estimated annual real estate tax and
     insurance and reserves for repairs, maintenance and
     improvements to the secured property in addition to the     
     payments of principal and interest.  The Registrant has no  
     other debt except normal trade accounts payable and expenses,
     although it has a commitment referred to in the notes to the
     financial statements to fund cash flow deficits on the Nob  
     Hill property.

          Rental revenue from the Registrant's apartment and retail
     properties has been stable.  Cash flow from all sources is
     projected to be sufficient to cover operating, financing and
     improvement costs in the near future at such properties. 
     Office markets where the Registrant owns properties, have
     experienced extended periods of high vacancy rates,
     significantly lower effective rental rates, reduced demand,
     and high risks of tenant failures and overbuilding.  Terms of 
     new and renewals of existing leases are being made that are
     significantly more in favor of tenants with reduced rental  
     rates, period of free or reduced rent and costs of altering
     and improving rented premises being borne by the landlord.

          All of the Registrant's mortgage obligations are without
     recourse to the Registrant and are limited to the encumbered
     property.  Accordingly, the Registrant has the power to limit
     the effect of the negative cash flow of a particular property
     to that property (other than Nob Hill) and, if the Registrant
     is unable to restructure the terms of the mortgage
     indebtedness or otherwise to cure the cause of the cash flow 
     deficit, may choose to turn over such property to its 
     mortgagee.  As noted in the notes to the Financial Statements,
     the Registrant is currently undertaking negotiations with
     respect to the International Jewelry  Center for the
     restructuring of the indebtedness secured by that property,
     and if the results of those negotiations do not produce a debt
     service consistent with the rental income and capital
     expenditures required by that property, the Registrant may
     turn over that property to the mortgage lender.
