                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT



To the Board of Directors
Laurel Creek Apartments
San Luis Obispo, California

We have audited the  accompanying  balance  sheet of Laurel Creek  Apartments (A
California  Limited  Partnership)  as of  December  31,  1999  and  the  related
statements of income, expenses, and changes in partners' capital, and cash flows
for the year then ended.  These financial  statements are the  responsibility of
the  Partnerships'  management.  Our  responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements 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  financial   statements  are  free  of  material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material  respects,  the financial position of Laurel Creek Apartments as of
December 31, 1999,  and the results of its operations for the year then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                                   (Continued)

Note 1 -  DEFINITION OF REPORTING  ENTITY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT  ACCOUNTING
          POLICIES

          The Laurel Creek Apartments is a California Limited  Partnership which
          was formed on May 17, 1994. The  partnership  was formed to construct,
          acquire,  own, operate,  maintain,  manage,  lease, sell,  mortgage or
          otherwise  dispose of a 24 unit apartment  complex located in the City
          of San Luis Obispo, California.

          As of the  report  date  there are two  partners  in the  partnership,
          consisting of one general and one limited partner.

          Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

                    a.   Basis of accounting

                         The  partnership  is accounted for on the accrual basis
                         of   accounting.   Under  this  method   revenues   are
                         recognized  when  they  are  earned  and  expenses  are
                         recognized when they are incurred.

                    b.   Fixed assets and depreciation

                         Fixed assets are carried at cost.  Expenditures for the
                         fixed assets are  capitalized.  Maintenance and repairs
                         are charged to operations.  Depreciation  is calculated
                         using the straight-line basis over the estimated useful
                         lives.

                    c.   Income taxes

                         Taxable  income or expenses and related tax credits are
                         not   reflected   as   expenses   or   credits  of  the
                         partnership.  These items are the  responsibilities  of
                         the individual partners.
Note 2 -  CASH

          Cash consists of $28,505 deposited into savings or checking  accounts,
          and $705 is on  deposit  with the  State of  California  Local  Agency
          Investment  Fund. At December 31, 1999 the amount  deposited  into the
          savings accounts and the Local Agency  Investment Fund earned interest
          at rates from 1.25% to 5.49% respectively.

Note 3 -  RESTRICTED CASH

          Restricted  cash  consists  of $22,819  maintained  in a money  market
          account  earning 5.49%.  This cash is reserved for the  replacement of
          structures and equipment.

          The accounting and  administrative  functions of the  partnership  are
          performed  by  employees  of the Housing  Authority of the City of San
          Luis Obispo (the Authority). Two members of the general partner's (San
          Luis Obispo Nonprofit Housing Corporation) board of directors are also
          members of the board of commissioner's of the Housing Authority of the
          City of San Luis Obispo.

          At December 31, 1999 the  partnership  owed the Authority  $20,163 and
          the Nonprofit  Corporation  $189.  During the year ended  December 31,

Note 8 -  LAND DONATION AND LEASE

          The land  upon  which  the  Laurel  Creek  Apartments  were  built was
          originally  leased  from the City of San Luis Obispo (the City) by the
          Housing Authority of the City of San Luis Obispo (the Authority). This
          lease  agreement was later assigned from the Authority to the San Luis
          Obispo Nonprofit Housing Corporation (the Corporation).  The lease was
          later assigned to the Laurel Creek Apartments Partnership. Each of the
          above  mentioned  agencies  have common board members or in some other
          manner have oversight  responsibilities  over the other organizations;
          which would qualify them as related parties.

          The lease expires on April 29, 2046.  The  provisions for extending or
          renewing the lease term are not specified and are contingent  upon the
          continuation of the project being used to provide  affordable  housing
          to lower income families. The annual lease payments are $1 per year.

          The  land was  recorded  on the  Agency's  books  of  accounts  at the
          appraised value on the date the land lease was assigned to the Agency.
          This  appraised  value  was  $275,000.  The value of the land was also
          recorded as a capital  contribution  from the general  partner on that
          date.
