Notes to the Financial Statements
For the Three and Nine Month Period Ended September 30, 1997
(Unaudited)
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Accounting Method - TMP Inland Empire VII, Ltd. (the Partnership) prepares its
financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting.
Organization Costs - Organization costs include expenses incurred in the
formation of the Partnership that have been capitalized and that have been
amortized over a period of 40 years prior to 1992 and are being amortized over
five years beginning in 1992.
Investment in Unimproved Land - The Partnership's land is stated at the lower of
actual cost or market value, based on specific identification. All costs
associated with the acquisition of a property are capitalized. In addition, the
Partnership capitalizes all 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 83.5 percent to the limited partners and 16.5
percent to the general partners.
As of September 30, 1997 and 1996, profits, losses and cash distributions were
allocated 99 percent to the limited partners and one percent to the general
partners.
NOTES 3 - Notes Payable
As of September 30, 1997 and 1996, the Partnership had four notes payable
totaling $354,628. Three notes totaling $229,628 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.
Additionally, the Partnership had a note payable to a private lender. The note
bears interest at 14% per annum and matures February 1999. The note is secured
by Partnership land.

For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition Results of
Operations.
Partnership revenues during the three and nine month periods ended September 30,
1997 and 1996 consisted primarily of interest earned on funds held in reserve.
No properties were sold during the periods presented.
During the nine months ended September 30, 1997, operating activities of the
Partnership used approximately $127,000 for carrying costs of the land held for
investment, and financing activities provided $125,000 from the proceeds of a
note payable.
The Partnership had five properties at September 30, 1997 that are being held
for appreciation and resale. Upon the property sale, the Partnership intends to
pay Partnership obligations and distribute the remaining sales proceeds, less
any reserves needed for operations, to the partners.
The Partnership has insufficient cash on hand to meet the anticipated cash
requirements of the Partnership for the next twelve months. Management will
attempt to procure a loan secured by Partnership land, as well as withhold
payment of certain expenses such as property taxes. As of September 30, 1997, no
such loan had been established and there is no assurance that management will be
successful in securing such a loan.
