of acquiring,developing and operating real property. The General Partners in the
Partnership are William O. Passo, Anthony W. Thompson, Scott E. McDaniel of  TMP
Properties, a California General Partnership and TMP Investments Inc.

On  March 12, 1998, the General Partners  of  the  Partnership  entered  into an
agreement   (the Agreement)  with   PacWest  Inland  Empire,  LLC  (PacWest),  a
Delaware  limited  liability company, whereby  PacWest paid the General Partners
of the  Partnership  and ten other related  partnerships,  a total of  $300,000;
and agreed to pay up to a total of $300,000 for any deficit capital accounts for
these  11  partnerships  in  exchange  for  the rights to distributions from the
General Partners;  referred  to  as  a  "distribution fee"  as  defined  by  the
Agreement.

PacWest entered into a management, administrative and consulting agreement as of
April 1, 1998,  with the  General  Partners  of the  Partnership  to provide the
Partnership with overall  management,  administrative  and consulting  services.
PacWest currently contracts with Preferred Partnership Services,  Inc. and other
entities to perform certain of the financial, accounting, and investor  relation
services for the  Partnership.  As of June 30, 1998 the Partnership owes PacWest
$6,480 relating to this agreement.   PacWest has also agreed to  provide certain
liquidity   to  this  Partnership  as  discussed  in  the  MD&A  section of this
report.

The following is a summary of the Partnership significant accounting policies.

Basis of Presentation - The Partnership prepares its financial statements on the
accrual basis of accounting.

Property Held For Investment - The Partnership's land  is stated at the lower of
actual cost or net realizable  value.  All costs associated with the acquisition
of a property are capitalized. In addition, the Partnership capitalizes interest
and property taxes as carrying costs.

Income  Taxes - The entity is treated as a  partnership  for income tax purposes
and any  income or loss is passed  through  and  taxable at the  partner  level.
Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is provided.


NOTE 2 - Allocation of Profits, Losses and Cash Distributions

Profits,  losses, and cash distributions are allocated 99 percent to the limited
partners and one percent to the general partners until the limited partners have
received  an amount  equal to their  capital  contributions  plus a  cumulative,
non-compounded  return of six percent per annum based on their adjusted  capital
account  balances.   At  that  point,   remaining   profits,   losses  and  cash
distributions are allocated 85 percent to the limited partners and 15 percent to
the general partners.

As of June 30,  1998 and  1997,  profits,  losses  and cash  distributions  were
allocated  99 percent to the  limited  partners  and one  percent to the general
partners.

NOTE 3 - Notes Payable

As of June 30, 1998 and December 31 1997, the Partnership had four notes payable
totaling $676,529 and $613,454 respectively. Three notes totaling $317,704 were
issued to a third party engineering company for engineering work performed and 
are due and payable upon sale of certain partnership properties, or March 1, 
1997, whichever comes  first.  The notes bear interest  at 10 percent per annum.
The  general partners  have  negotiated  a  one-year  extension  on the notes in
return  for securing  the notes as first  trust  deeds.  At March 31,  1998 this
note was in default. Additionally, the Partnership had a note payable to a pri-
vate lender. The note bears interest at 14% per annum and matures February 1999.
The note is secured by Partnership land. The Partnership has requested a one-
year extension.

NOTE 4 - Restatement and reissuance of 1997 financial statements

In  compliance  with  Statement  of  Financial   Accounting  Standards  No.  121
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived  Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
e Disposed Of (SFAS 121), the 1996 financial  statements reported an expense for
the  decline  in  fair  value  of  unimproved   land  of  $3,546,049.  The  1997
financial  statements  originally issued with the auditor's report dated January
28,  1998  reported  $1,824,767  of  income  due  to    appreciation   in   fair
value of land. Current clarifications reveals that SFAS 121 does not provide for
recording  appreciation  in fair  value of an asset  even in view of  previously
recording a decline in value.  Therefore,  the  1997 financial  statements  were
restated on August 3, 1998 to remove the appreciation in fair value of land.

In addition,  certain  carrying costs of land that were  previously  capitalized
have been restated as current expenses  in  the amount of $9,866 and $21,949 for
the three and six months ended June 30, 1997.

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

The  following   discussion   and  analysis   provides   information   that  the
Partnership's management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding
of the  Partnership's  results  of  operations  and  financial  condition.  This
discussion  should be read in  conjunction  with the  financial  statements  and
footnotes which appear elsewhere in this Report.

This  discussion and analysis  contains  forward-looking  statements  within the
meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Section 27A of
the  Securities Act of 1933,  which are subject to the "safe harbor"  created by
that  section.  Words  such as  "expects,"  "anticipates,"  "intends,"  "plans,"
"believes,"  "seeks,"  "estimates" and similar expressions or variations of such
works are  intended  to  identify  forward-looking  statements,  but are not the
exclusive  means  of  identifying  forward-looking  statements  in this  Report.
Additionally,  statements  concerning  future  matters  such  as  the  features,
benefits and advantages of the Partnerships  properties  regarding  matters that
are not historical are forward-looking  statements.  Such statements are subject
to certain risks and uncertainties  and the Partnership's  actual future results
could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking  statements.
The Partnership assumes no obligation to update the forward-looking  statements.
Readers are urged to review and consider carefully the various  disclosures made
by the Partnership in this Report,  which attempts to advise interested  parties
of the risks and factors that may affect the Partnership's  business,  financial
condition and results of operations.

The  Partnership  had five  properties  at June 30, 1998 that are being held for
appreciation and resale.  Upon the sale of property,  the Partnership intends to
distribute  the  sales  proceeds,  less  any  reserves  needed  for  winding  up
partnership operations, to the partners.

Results of Operations
Partnership revenues during the three month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997
consisted  primarily of interest earned on funds held in reserve.  No properties
were sold during the periods presented.

During  the three  months  ended  June 30,  1998,  operating  activities  of the
Partnership used  approximately  $74,000 for carrying costs of the land held for
investment,  and financing  activities  provided  $63,000 from the proceeds of a
note payable.

General and administrative expenses for the  three  months  and six months ended
June 30, 1997 and 1998 represent legal,  accounting  and  related expenses which
vary from quarter to quarter based on certain activity in the fund.  In addition
they  reflect  fees  charged  to  the  partnershp   or  pursuant  to the PacWest
Management Agreement described in note 1 to the financial statements for various
management and administrative service.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Management  believes that cash reserves as of June 30, 1998 are  insufficient to
meet  the  anticipated  cash  requirements  of the  Partnership  for the next 12
months.  PacWest  has  agreed  to  loan  and/or  secure  a  loan  for  TMP  Land
Partnerships  in the amount of  $2,500,000.  Loan  proceeds will be allocated to
eleven  (11)  TMP  Land   Partnerships,   based  on  partnership   needs,   from
recommendations  made by PacWest, and under the approval and/or direction of the
General  Partners.  A portion of these funds will be loaned to TMP Inland Empire
VII,  Ltd.,  at 12% simple  interest over a 24 month period  beginning  April 1,
1998,  secured  by the  Partnership's  properties,  as funds  are  needed in the
opinion of the General  Partners.  These funds are not to exceed 50% of the 1997
appraised  value  of the  properties,  and  will  primarily  be  used to pay for
on-going  property   maintenance,   pay  down  existing  debt,  back  taxes  and
appropriate entitlement costs.

PacWest, at their option, can make additional advances with the agreement of the
General  Partners;  however,  the  aggregate  amount  of cash  loaned to all TMP
partnership is limited to a maximum of $2.5 million.

TMP  properties  and TMP  Investments,  Inc.  will  remain as General  Partners,
however,  PacWest has acquired the General Partner's  unsubordinated 1% interest
in  the   Partnership   and   assumed   responsibility   for   all   partnership
administration.  PacWest will charge a fee for its administrative services equal
to an amount not to exceed the average reimbursements to the general Partner for
such services over the past five years.

As Partnership  properties are sold, cash will be used to first pay back PacWest
loans, then other creditors, then to accrued by unpaid Partnership indebtedness.

Sale proceeds in excess of the amount necessary to pay Partnership  indebtedness
shall be split 86% to the Partnership and 14% to PacWest.

The General Partners believe that ultimately,  this will benefit the Partnership
and  the  Limited  Partners.   Without  the  cash  infusion  from  PacWest,  the
Partnership  stands  to  lose  some  or  all  of its  properties  either  due to
foreclosure resulting from the inability to pay outstanding loans or for failure
to pay property taxes.




Year 2000 Compliance

Many currently  installed  computer  systems and software  products are coded to
accept  only two digit  entries in the date code  field.  Beginning  in the year
2000,  these  date  codes  fields  will need to accept  four  digit  entries  to
distinguish  21st century dates from 20th century dates.  As a result,  computer
systems  and/or  software used by  organizations  may need to upgraded to comply
with the "Y2K"  requirements.  There is significant  uncertainty in the software
and information services industries  concerning the potential effects associated
with such  compliance.  While the  Partnership  believes  that its  systems  are
compatible with Y2K applications, there can be no assurance that all Partnership
systems  will  function  properly  in  all  operating  environments  and  on all
platforms.  The failure to comply with Y2K  requirements by systems not designed
by the  Partnership  may  also  have a  material  adverse  on the  Partnership's
business,  financial  condition and results of  operations.  The  Partnership is
currently  developing and implementing a plan to identify and address  potential
difficulties  associated  with  Y2K  issues  and  does  not expect to expend any
significant funds as a result of these issues.
