                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                
                          JUNE 30, 1996
                                
                           (Unaudited)

(1)  The  condensed  statements included herein have been  prepared
     by  the Partnership, without audit, pursuant to the rules  and
     regulations  of  the Securities and Exchange  Commission,  and
     reflect   all  adjustments  which  are,  in  the  opinion   of
     management,  necessary to a fair statement of the  results  of
     operations for the interim period, on a basis consistent  with
     the  annual audited statements.  The adjustments made to these
     condensed   statements  consist  only  of   normal   recurring
     adjustments.   Certain information, accounting  policies,  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  Partnership
     believes  that  the  disclosures  are  adequate  to  make  the
     information  presented not misleading.  It is  suggested  that
     these  condensed financial statements be read  in  conjunction
     with  the  financial statements and the summary of significant
     accounting  policies  and  notes  thereto  included   in   the
     Partnership's latest annual report on Form 10-KSB.

(2)  Organization -

     AEI  Net  Lease Income & Growth Fund XX Limited  Partnership
     (Partnership)  was  formed to acquire and  lease  commercial
     properties   to   operating  tenants.    The   Partnership's
     operations  are  managed  by AEI Fund  Management  XX,  Inc.
     (AFM),  the  Managing  General Partner of  the  Partnership.
     Robert  P.  Johnson, the President and sole  shareholder  of
     AFM,  serves  as  the  Individual  General  Partner  of  the
     Partnership.   An  affiliate of AFM,  AEI  Fund  Management,
     Inc.,  performs  the administrative and operating  functions
     for the Partnership.
     
     The   terms   of  the  Partnership  offering  call   for   a
     subscription  price of $1,000 per Limited Partnership  Unit,
     payable   on  acceptance  of  the  offer.   The  Partnership
     commenced   operations  on  June  30,  1993   when   minimum
     subscriptions    of   1,500   Limited   Partnership    Units
     ($1,500,000)  were  accepted.   On  January  19,  1995,  the
     Partnership's   offering   terminated   when   the   maximum
     subscription  limit  of  24,000  Limited  Partnership  Units
     ($24,000,000) was reached.
     
     Under  the  terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement,  the
     Limited  Partners and General Partners contributed funds  of
     $24,000,000 and $1,000, respectively.  During the  operation
     of the Partnership, any Net Cash Flow, as defined, which the
     General Partners determine to distribute will be distributed
     90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the General Partners;
     provided,  however, that such distributions to  the  General
     Partners will be subordinated to the Limited Partners  first
     receiving an annual, noncumulative distribution of Net  Cash
     Flow equal to 10% of their Adjusted Capital Contribution, as
     defined,  and, provided further, that in no event  will  the
     General Partners receive less than 1% of such Net Cash  Flow
     per  annum.  Distributions to Limited Partners will be  made
     pro rata by Units.

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           (Continued)
                                
(2)  Organization - (Continued)

     Any  Net  Proceeds  of Sale, as defined, from  the  sale  or
     financing of the Partnership's properties which the  General
     Partners determine to distribute will, after provisions  for
     debts  and  reserves, be paid in the following  manner:  (i)
     first,  99%  to the Limited Partners and 1% to  the  General
     Partners until the Limited Partners receive an amount  equal
     to:  (a)  their Adjusted Capital Contribution  plus  (b)  an
     amount  equal  to 12% of their Adjusted Capital Contribution
     per  annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not
     previously  distributed  from  Net  Cash  Flow;   (ii)   any
     remaining  balance will be distributed 90%  to  the  Limited
     Partners and 10% to the General Partners.  Distributions  to
     the Limited Partners will be made pro rata by Units.
     
     For  tax  purposes,  profits  from  operations,  other  than
     profits  attributable  to  the  sale,  exchange,  financing,
     refinancing   or  other  disposition  of  the  Partnership's
     property,  will  be  allocated first in the  same  ratio  in
     which,  and  to the extent, Net Cash Flow is distributed  to
     the Partners for such year.  Any additional profits will  be
     allocated in the same ratio as the last dollar of  Net  Cash
     Flow  is  distributed.  Net losses from operations  will  be
     allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the  General
     Partners.
     
     For  tax purposes, profits arising from the sale, financing,
     or  other disposition of the Partnership's property will  be
     allocated  in  accordance with the Partnership Agreement  as
     follows:  (i) first, to those partners with deficit balances
     in  their capital accounts in an amount equal to the sum  of
     such  deficit  balances; (ii) second,  99%  to  the  Limited
     Partners  and 1% to the General Partners until the aggregate
     balance in the Limited Partners' capital accounts equals the
     sum  of the Limited Partners' Adjusted Capital Contributions
     plus  an  amount  equal  to 12% of  their  Adjusted  Capital
     Contributions  per annum, cumulative but not compounded,  to
     the  extent  not  previously  allocated;  (iii)  third,  the
     balance of any remaining gain will then be allocated 90%  to
     the  Limited  Partners  and  10% to  the  General  Partners.
     Losses will be allocated 98% to the Limited Partners and  2%
     to the General Partners.
     
     The  General Partners are not required to currently  fund  a
     deficit   capital   balance.   Upon   liquidation   of   the
     Partnership or withdrawal by a General Partner, the  General
     Partners will contribute to the Partnership an amount  equal
     to  the  lesser  of  the deficit balances in  their  capital
     accounts  or  1%  of  total Limited  Partners'  and  General
     Partners' capital contributions.

(3)  Investments in Real Estate -

     In  1995,  the  Partnership elected early  adoption  of  the
     Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards   No.   121,
     "Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-
     Lived Assets to be Disposed Of."  This standard requires the
     Partnership to compare the carrying amount of its properties
     to  the estimated future cash flows expected to result  from
     the  property and its eventual disposition.  If the  sum  of
     the  expected  future cash flows is less than  the  carrying
     amount   of   the  property,  the  Statement  requires   the
     Partnership to recognize an impairment loss by the amount by
     which  the carrying amount of the property exceeds the  fair
     value  of the property.  Adoption of this Statement  is  not
     expected  to  have  a material effect on  the  Partnership's
     financial statements.
     
     The  Partnership  leases its properties to  various  tenants
     through   non-cancelable  triple  net  leases,   which   are
     classified  as operating leases.  Under a triple net  lease,
     the  lessee  is  responsible  for  all  real  estate  taxes,
     insurance,  maintenance, repairs and operating  expenses  of
     the  property.  The initial Lease terms are 20 years  except
     for  the  Media Play property (18 years) and the  Red  Robin
     restaurants,  whose Lease Agreements expire on November  30,
     2004,  and  December 31, 2007.  The Leases  contain  renewal
     options which may extend the Lease term an additional 10  to
     25 years.  The Leases contain rent clauses which entitle the
     Partnership to receive additional rent in future years based
     on stated rent increases.  Certain lessees have been granted
     options  to purchase the property.  Depending on the  lease,
     the purchase price is either determined by a formula, or  is
     the  greater of the fair market value of the property or the
     amount determined by a formula.  In all cases, if the option
     were to be exercised by the lessee, the purchase price would
     be greater than the original cost of the property.

(3)  Investments in Real Estate -  (Continued)

     In  August, 1995, the Partnership entered into an  Agreement
     to  purchase  an  Italianni's restaurant in Columbus,  Ohio.
     The  purchase  price will be approximately $1,440,000.   The
     property  will be leased to Ristoranti Karlo, Inc.  under  a
     Lease  Agreement with a primary term of 15 years and  annual
     rental payments of approximately $162,000.  Through June 30,
     1996,  the  Partnership  had  advanced  $1,215,483  for  the
     construction  of the property and was charging  interest  on
     the  Note  at  the  rate  of 7.0%.   On  May  1,  1996,  the
     Partnership began charging interest on the Note at the  rate
     of 11.25%.
     
     On  April  10, 1996, the Partnership purchased  a  90.71346%
     interest  in  a  Champps Americana restaurant in  Lyndhurst,
     Ohio  for  $1,928,515.  The property is leased to  Americana
     Dining  Corporation under a Lease Agreement with  a  primary
     term  of  20  years and annual rental payments of  $208,550.
     The  remaining interest in the property was purchased by the
     Individual  General  Partner of  the  Partnership,  and  AEI
     Institutional  Net  Lease  Fund '93,  an  affiliate  of  the
     Partnership.
     
     During  1995, the Partnership sold 59.8646% of the  HomeTown
     Buffet  restaurant  in  Albuquerque,  New  Mexico,  in  four
     separate  transactions  to  unrelated  third  parties.   The
     Partnership  received  total net sale proceeds  of  $988,838
     which  resulted in a total net gain of $225,180.  The  total
     cost and accumulated depreciation of the interests sold  was
     $792,515 and $28,857, respectively.
     
     The Partnership owns the above property as tenants-in-common
     with  the  unrelated third parties.  The management  of  the
     property  is  governed by co-tenancy agreements between  the
     Partnership and the unrelated third parties, which grant the
     Partnership the authority to control the management  of  the
     property.   For  property  owned as  tenants-in-common  with
     third  parties,  other  than  affiliated  partnerships,  the
     Partnership  accounts  for  its  interest  under  the   full
     consolidation  method whereby the unrelated  third  parties'
     interests  in the property is reflected in the Partnership's
     financial  statements as a minority interest.  For  purposes
     of   financial   reporting,  the  Partnership   consolidates
     properties  in  which it is the controlling tenant-in-common
     despite  having  only  a  minority equity  interest  in  the
     property.   The Partnership also consolidates the Individual
     General   Partner's   interest  in  the  Champps   Americana
     restaurant in Lyndhurst, Ohio.
     
     During  the first six months of 1996 and the year 1995,  the
     Partnership  distributed $90,164 and $486,375  of  net  sale
     proceeds  to  the Limited and General Partners  as  part  of
     their  regular quarterly distributions, which represented  a
     return   of   capital  of  $3.74  and  $20.24  per   Limited
     Partnership  Unit,  respectively.  The  remaining  net  sale
     proceeds will either be re-invested in additional properties
     or distributed to the Partners in the future.
     
     The  Partnership has incurred net costs of $727,764 relating
     to  the review of potential property acquisitions.  Of these
     costs, $601,053 have been capitalized and allocated to land,
     building  and  equipment.  The remaining costs  of  $126,711
     have  been  capitalized  and will be allocated  to  property
     acquisitions in future periods.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Results of Operations

        For  the  six  months ended June 30, 1996 and  1995,  the
Partnership recognized rental income from properties of  $949,016
and   $629,788,  respectively.   During  the  same  periods,  the
Partnership  also  earned  $116,244 and  $279,751  in  investment
income  from subscription proceeds which were invested in  short-
term  money  market  accounts, commercial paper,  federal  agency
notes,   and  construction  advances.   This  investment   income
constituted 11% and 31% of total income for the six months  ended
June  30,  1996 and 1995, respectively.  The percentage of  total
income  represented by investment income declines as subscription
proceeds are invested in properties.

        The annual rent from the thirteen properties acquired, as
of  June  30,  1996,  is  approximately  $1,994,000.   Since  all
properties  are  leased under triple-net leases, the  Partnership
has  not  incurred,  and  does  not  expect  to  incur,  expenses
associated  with the operation or maintenance of  properties  and
the  rental  income  represents the cash flow  generated  by  the
properties to the Partnership.

        During  the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,  the
Partnership   paid   Partnership   administration   expenses   to
affiliated parties of $110,766 and $132,516, respectively.  These
administration  expenses  include  initial  start-up  costs   and
expenses  associated  with  the  management  of  the  properties,
processing    distributions,    reporting    requirements     and
correspondence  to  the  Limited  Partners.   The  administrative
expenses   decrease  after  completion  of   the   offering   and
acquisition phases of the Partnership's operations.   During  the
same periods, the Partnership incurred Partnership administration
and  property  management  expenses  from  unrelated  parties  of
$23,944  and  $25,396,  respectively.  These  expenses  represent
direct  payments  to  third parties for legal  and  filing  fees,
direct  administrative costs, outside audit and accounting costs,
insurance and other property costs.

        The  Partnership distributes all of its net income during
the  offering  and  acquisition phases, and if net  income  after
deductions  for  depreciation  is  not  sufficient  to  fund  the
distributions,  the  Partnership may distribute  other  available
cash that constitutes capital for accounting purposes.

        As  of June 30, 1996, the Partnership's cash distribution
rate  was 8.0% on an annualized basis.  Distributions of Net Cash
Flow  to  the  General Partners were subordinated to the  Limited
Partners as required in the Partnership Agreement.  As a  result,
99%  of  distributions  and  income  were  allocated  to  Limited
Partners and 1% to the General Partners.


ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS  (Continued)

       Since the Partnership has only recently purchased its real
estate,  inflation  has  had  a minimal  effect  on  income  from
operations.   It is expected that increases in sales  volumes  of
the  tenants due to inflation and real sales growth, will  result
in  an  increase  in rental income over the term of  the  leases.
Inflation  also  may  cause  the  Partnership's  real  estate  to
appreciate in value.  However, inflation and changing prices  may
also  have  an  adverse impact on the operating  margins  of  the
properties' tenants which could impair their ability to pay  rent
and subsequently reduce the Partnership's Net Cash Flow available
for distributions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        The  Partnership's  primary  sources  of  cash  are  from
proceeds from the sale of Units, investment income, rental income
and proceeds from the sale of property.  Its primary uses of cash
are  investment in real properties, payment of expenses  involved
in  the  sale of units, the organization of the Partnership,  the
acquisition  of  properties, the management  of  properties,  the
administration   of   the  Partnership,  and   the   payment   of
distributions.

        While the Partnership is purchasing properties, cash flow
from  investing  activities (investment in  real  property)  will
remain  negative  and will constitute the principal  use  of  the
Partnership's  available cash flow.  This use of  cash  flow  for
investing  activities was partially offset by proceeds  from  the
sale of property.

       During 1995, the Partnership sold 59.8646% of the HomeTown
Buffet  restaurant in Albuquerque, New Mexico, in  four  separate
transactions   to  unrelated  third  parties.   The   Partnership
received total net sale proceeds of $988,838 which resulted in  a
total  net  gain  of  $225,180.  The total cost  and  accumulated
depreciation  of  the  interests sold was $792,515  and  $28,857,
respectively.   The Partnership owns the property as  tenants-in-
common  with the unrelated third parties.  The management of  the
property  is  governed  by  co-tenancy  agreements  between   the
Partnership  and  the unrelated third parties,  which  grant  the
Partnership  the  authority  to control  the  management  of  the
property.   The Partnership accounts for its interest  under  the
full  consolidation method whereby the unrelated  third  parties'
interests  in  the  property are reflected in  the  Partnership's
financial  statements  as a minority interest.   The  Partnership
also  consolidates the Individual General Partner's  interest  in
the Champps Americana restaurant in Lyndhurst, Ohio.

       During the first six months of 1996 and the year 1995, the
Partnership distributed $90,164 and $486,375 of net sale proceeds
to  the  Limited  and General Partners as part of  their  regular
quarterly distributions, which represented a return of capital of
$3.74 and $20.24 per Limited Partnership Unit, respectively.  The
remaining  net  sale  proceeds  will  either  be  re-invested  in
additional  properties  or distributed to  the  Partners  in  the
future.

        Before  the  acquisition of properties,  cash  flow  from
operating  activities  is  not  significant.   Net  income  after
adjustment for depreciation, which becomes the largest  component
of  cash flow from operating activities and the largest component
of  cash  flow after the completion of the acquisition phase,  is
lower  during the first few years of operations as administrative
expenses  remain  high  and a large amount of  the  Partnership's
assets  remain  invested on a short-term basis in  lower-yielding
cash equivalents.



ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS  (Continued)

         Until   the   offering  of  Units  was  completed,   the
Partnership's primary source of cash flow was from  the  sale  of
Limited  Partnership Units.  From January 20, 1993  to  June  30,
1993,  the  minimum number of Limited Partnership  Units  (1,500)
needed to form the Partnership were sold and on June 30, 1993,  a
total  of 1,637.473 Units ($1,637,473) were transferred into  the
Partnership.   On  January 19, 1995, the  Partnership's  offering
terminated when the maximum subscription limit of 24,000  Limited
Partnership  Units ($24,000,000) was reached.  From  subscription
proceeds, the Partnership paid organization and syndication costs
(which constitute a reduction of capital) of $3,282,051.

         After   completion   of  the  acquisition   phase,   the
Partnership's  primary  use  of cash  flow  is  distribution  and
redemption  payments to Partners.  The Partnership  declares  its
regular  quarterly distributions before the end of  each  quarter
and pays the distribution in the first week after the end of each
quarter.    The  Partnership  attempts  to  maintain   a   stable
distribution  rate from quarter to quarter.  Redemption  payments
are  paid  to  redeeming Partners in the fourth quarter  of  each
year.

        The  Partnership may acquire Units from Limited  Partners
who have tendered their Units to the Partnership.  Such Units may
be  acquired at a discount.  The Partnership is not obligated  to
purchase  in  any  year  more than 5%  of  the  number  of  Units
outstanding at the beginning of the year.  In no event shall  the
Partnership  be  obligated to purchase  Units  if,  in  the  sole
discretion  of the Managing General Partner, such purchase  would
impair the capital or operation of the Partnership.

        During  1995, five Limited Partners redeemed a  total  of
131.5  Partnership  Units for $118,350  in  accordance  with  the
Partnership  Agreement.   The Partnership  acquired  these  Units
using  Net  Cash Flow from operations.  The redemptions  increase
the   remaining  Limited  Partners'  ownership  interest  in  the
Partnership.

      The  continuing rent payments from the properties, together
with  cash generated from the property sales, should be  adequate
to  fund  continuing  distributions and  meet  other  Partnership
obligations on both a short-term and long-term basis.
