                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

Board of Trustees
N'Tandem Trust

We have audited the accompanying Historical Summary of Revenues and Direct
Operating Expenses (the "Historical Summary") of Aztec Village Manufactured Home
Community (the "Property") for the year ended December 31, 1998. The Historical
Summary is the responsibility of the Property's owners. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on the Historical Summary based on our audit.

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

The accompanying Historical Summary was prepared for the purpose of complying
with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, as
described in Note 2, and is not intended to be a complete presentation of the
Property's revenues and expenses.

In our opinion, the Historical Summary referred to above presents fairly, in all
material respects, the revenues and direct operating expenses on the basis of
accounting described in Note 2 of the Property for the year ended December 31,
1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

    the operations of Aztec Village Manufactured Home Community.  The property
    is located in the state of New Mexico.  The property was acquired by
    N'Tandem Trust in September 1999 and includes 163 sites.


2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
    ------------------------------------------

    BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    The financial statement is not representative of the actual operations for
    the year presented as certain expenses that may not be comparable to the
    expenses expected to be incurred in the future operations of the acquired
    property have been excluded in accordance with Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X
    of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Expenses excluded consist of
    interest, depreciation, amortization, and other costs.

    INTERIM UNAUDITED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

    The accompanying interim unaudited Historical Summary of Revenues and Direct
    Operating Expenses has been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations
    of the Securities and Exchange Commission and was prepared on the same basis
    as the Historical Summary of Revenues and Direct Operating Expenses for the

    adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for
    a fair presentation of the information for this interim period have been
    made.  The excess of revenues over direct operating expenses for such
    interim period is not necessarily indicative of the excess of revenues over
    direct operating expenses for the full year.

    REVENUE RECOGNITION

    Rental income attributable to residential leases is recorded when earned
    from tenants.

    ESTIMATES

    The preparation of the financial statement requires the owner's to make
    estimates and assumptions.  Actual results could differ from the estimates
    included in the financial statement.
