Item 1.  Business

Organization
- ------------

WNC  Housing  Tax  Credit  Fund  IV,  L.P.,  Series 2 (the  "Partnership")  is a
California limited  partnership formed under the laws of the State of California
on September 27, 1993 to acquire limited partnership  interests in local limited
partnerships  ("Local Limited  Partnerships")  which own  multifamily  apartment
complexes  that are eligible for low-income  housing  federal income tax credits
(the "Low Income Housing Credit")

The general partner of the Partnership is WNC Tax Credits Partner IV, L.P. ("The
General  Partner").  The  general  partner  of  the  General  Partner  is  WNC &
Associates,  Inc. ("Associates").  The business of the Partnerships is conducted
primarily through  Associates as neither the General Partner nor the Partnership
have employees of their own.

The  Partnership  conducted its public offering  ("Offering")  from July 1994 to
July 1995. 20,000 units of Limited Partnership  Interests ("Units"),  at a price
of $1,000  per Unit  were  offered.  Since  inception  a total of  15,600  Units
representing  approximately $15,241,000 were sold throughout the offering. Enova
Financial,  Inc. a  California  corporation,  which is not an  affiliate  of the
Partnership or General  Partner,  has purchased  4,000 Units,  which  represents
25.6% of the  Units  outstanding  for the  Partnership.  Enova  Financial,  Inc.
invested  $3,641,000.  A  discounts  of  $359,000  was  allowed  due to a volume
discount. See Item 12(a) in this 10-K.

Holders of Limited  Partnership  Interests  are  referred  to herein as "Limited
Partners."

The  Partnership  has  applied and will apply  funds  raised  through its public
offerings,   including  the  installment   payments  of  the  Limited  Partners'
promissory  notes as received,  to the purchase price and  acquisition  fees and
costs of Local Limited  Partnership  Interests,  reserves,  and expenses of this
Offering.


Description of Business
- -----------------------

The Partnership's principal business is to provide its Limited Partners with Low
Income Housing Credits. The Partnership's  principal business therefore consists
of investing as a limited  partner in Local Limited  Partnerships  each of which
will own and  operate an  apartment  complex  ("Apartment  Complex")  which will
qualify for the federal Low Income Housing Credit. In general, under Section 42,
an owner of a low-income  housing  project is entitled to receive the Low Income
Housing  Credit in each year of a  ten-year  period.  The  Apartment  Complex is
subject to a fifteen-year compliance period (the "Compliance Period").

In general,  in order to avoid  recapture  of Low Income  Housing  Credits,  the
Partnership  does not  expect  that it will  dispose of its  interests  in Local
Limited Partnerships ("Local Limited Partnership Interests") or approve the sale
by a Local Limited  Partnership of any Apartment Complex prior to the end of the
applicable  Compliance  Period.  Because  of (i)  the  nature  of the  Apartment
Complexes,  (ii) the  difficulty of predicting  the resale market for low-income
housing  15 or  more  years  in the  future,  and  (iii)  the  inability  of the
Partnership  to directly  cause the sale of  Apartment  Complexes by the general
partners  of  the  respective   Local  Limited   Partnerships   ("Local  General
Partners"),  but generally  only to require such Local  General  Partners to use
their  respective best efforts to find a purchaser for the Apartment  Complexes,
it is  not  possible  at  this  time  to  predict  whether  the  liquidation  of
substantially  all  of the  Partnership's  assets  and  the  disposition  of the
proceeds, if any, in accordance with the Partnership's agreement,  ("Partnership
Agreement")  will be able to be accomplished  promptly at the end of the 15-year
period. If a Local Limited  Partnership is unable to sell an Apartment  Complex,
it is anticipated that the Local General Partner will either continue to operate
such Apartment  Complex or take such other actions as the Local General  Partner
believes  to be in the  best  interest  of the  Local  Limited  Partnership.  In

                                       3
<PAGE>

addition,  circumstances  beyond the  control of the  General  Partner may occur
during the Compliance  Period which would require the Partnership to approve the
disposition of an Apartment Complex prior to the end thereof.

 The Partnership's  investments in Local Limited Partnerships are subject to the
risks incident to the management and ownership of low-income  housing and to the
management  and ownership  multifamily  residential  real estate.  Some of these
risks are that the Low Income Housing Credit could be recaptured and neither the
Partnership's  investments  nor the Apartment  Complexes  owned by Local Limited
Partnerships will be readily marketable. Additionally, there can be no assurance
that the  Partnership  will be able to  dispose  of its  interest  in the  Local
Limited  Partnerships  at the end of the  Compliance  Period.  The  value of the
Partnership's  investments  could be subject to  changes in  national  and local
economic conditions,  including unemployment  conditions,  which could adversely
impact vacancy levels, rental payment defaults and operating expenses.  This, in
turn,  could  substantially  increase  the  risk  of  operating  losses  for the
Apartment Complexes and the Partnership. The Apartment Complexes will be subject
to loss through  foreclosure.  In addition,  each Local Limited  Partnership  is
subject to risks relating to  environmental  hazards which might be uninsurable.
Because the Partnership's ability to control its operations will depend on these
and other  factors  beyond the  control  of the  General  Partner  and the Local
General Partners,  there can be no assurance that Partnership operations will be
profitable or that the  anticipated Low Income Housing Credits will be available
to Limited Partners.

The Apartment  Complexes  owned by the Local Limited  Partnerships  in which the
Partnership has invested or is expected to invest were or are being developed by
the Local  General  Partners who  acquired the sites and applied for  applicable
mortgages and  subsidies.  The  Partnership  became or will become the principal
limited  partner in these Local Limited  Partnerships  pursuant to  arm's-length
negotiations  with  the  Local  General  Partners.  As a  limited  partner,  the
Partnership's  liability for  obligations  of the Local Limited  Partnership  is
limited  to its  investment.  The Local  General  Partner  of the Local  Limited
Partnership retains  responsibility for developing,  constructing,  maintaining,
operating and managing the Apartment Complex.

As of  December  31,  1997,  the  Partnership  had  invested in twenty one Local
Limited Partnerships. Each of these Local Limited Partnerships owns an Apartment
Complex that is or is expected to be eligible for the Low Income Housing Credit.
All of the Local  Limited  Partnerships  also benefit from  government  programs
promoting low or moderate  income housing.  All of the Apartment  Complexes have
completed  construction  or  rehabilitation  as  of  December  31,  1997  except
CROSSINGS which was partially complete.

The  following  is a schedule  of the status as of  December  31,  1997,  of the
Apartment  Complexes owned by Local  Partnerships in which the Partnership was a
limited partner as of December 31, 1997:

(1)      Low Income Housing Credits are available over a 10-year period. For the
         year in which the credit  first  becomes  available  with respect to an
         Apartment Complex, The Partnership will receive only that percentage of
         the annual  credit  which  corresponds  to the number of months  during
         which The  Partnership  was a  limited  partner  of the  Local  Limited
         Partnership,  and during which the Apartment  Complex was completed and
         in service. See the discussion under "The Low Income Housing Credit" in

(9)      California  has  established  the Rental Housing  Construction  Program
         ("RHCP") to provide low interest loans directly to project sponsors for
         the construction of new rental housing for occupancy by very low-income
         households,  lower-income households and other households. RHCP funding
         is provided through a combination of interim construction and permanent
         loans or through permanent loans only. The standard interest rate is 3%
         per annum,  calculated on a simple  (non-compounded) basis. The minimum
         term to maturity is 40 years,  with longer  original  terms and 10-year
         extensions  available.  The  repayment  schedule  is based on a formula
         generally  related to the project's ability to pay. During the first 30
         years of the loan term, no principal payments are required. Interest is

                                       9

         payable  from,  and  only to the  extent  of,  net cash  flow.  Accrued
         interest for any year which cannot be paid is deferred  until such time
         as net cash flow is sufficient for payment thereof. Commencing with the
         30th year of the loan term,  principal  and interest are payable out of
         net cash flow. The amount of the required payments depends, in part, on
         the remaining  duration of the loan term. In each project,  30% or more
         of all units must be assisted  units,  and at least 2/3 of all assisted
         units must be very low-income units.

(a) The Units are not traded on a public exchange but were sold through a public
offering.  It is not  anticipated  that any public  market will  develop for the
purchase  and  sale  of  any  Unit.  Units  can  be  assigned  only  if  certain

Agreement") are satisfied.

(b) At December 31, 1997, there were 837 Limited Partners.

(c) The  Partnership was not designed to provide cash  distributions  to Limited
Partners  in  circumstances   other  than  refinancing  or  disposition  of  its

Item 7. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operation

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

Since  inception,  the  Partnership  has received  $15,241,000  in cash,  net of
discount  of  $359,000,  from  the  sale  of  Units.  Substantially  all  of the
$15,241,000  has been committed to the purchase price and  acquisition  fees and
costs of investments in Local Limited Partnerships, reserves and expenses of the
offering.  Although not  presently  the case,  the  Partnership  previously  had
identified its  investments in advance of receipt of sufficient  cash capital to
fund the investments.  As of December 31, 1997, the Partnership had made capital
contributions  to Local  Limited  Partnerships  in the  amount of  approximately
$10,453,000,  and  had  commitments  for  additional  capital  contributions  of
approximately $411,500.

The   Partnership  was  indebted  to  the  General  Partner  in  the  amount  of
approximately $1,100 and $9,300 at December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The
component items of such  indebtedness  are advances made for acquisition  costs,
organizational, offering and selling expenses.

Overall,  as reflected in its Statement of Cash Flows, the Partnership had a net
decrease in cash and cash equivalents of approximately  $890,500. for the period
ended  December  31,  1997.  This  decrease  in cash  consisted  of cash used in
investing  activities  of  approximately  $935,100 and  financing  activities of
approximately  $8,200  offset  by  cash  provided  by  operating  activities  of
approximately   $52,800.   Cash  used  in  investing   activities  consisted  of

                                       17
<PAGE>

contributions  to  limited  partnerships  of  approximately  $674,900,  loans to
limited partnerships of approximately $259,500 and acquisition costs paid to the
general  partner  of  approximately  $8,300  offset by cash  distributions  from
limited partnerships of approximately  $7,600. Cash used by financing activities
consisted  of advances to general  partners  and  affiliates.  Cash  provided by
operating  activities consisted of interest income on cash and cash equivalents.
Cash used in operating  activities consisted primarily of payments for operating
fees and expenses. The major components of all these activities are discussed in
greater detail below.

Overall,  as reflected in its Statement of Cash Flows, the Partnership had a net
decrease in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2,914,300 for the period
ended  December  31,  1996.  This  decrease  in cash  consisted  of cash used in
investing  activities  of  approximately  $2,837,900  and cash used in financing
activities of the Partnership of approximately $137,300, offset by cash provided
by  operating  activities  of  approximately  $60,900.  Cash  used in  investing
activities  consisted of contributions to limited  partnerships of approximately
$2,793,700,  acquisition  costs paid to the  general  partner  of  approximately
$25,300 and  offering  expenses  paid to  affiliates  of the general  partner of
approximately  22,700, offset by cash distributions from limited partnerships of
approximately $3,900. Cash used by financing activities consisted of advances to
general partners and affiliates. Cash provided by operating activities consisted
of  interest  income  on cash  and  cash  equivalents.  Cash  used in  operating
activities consisted primarily of payments for operating fees and expenses.  The
major components of all these activities are discussed in greater detail below.

 Prior to sale of the  Apartment  Complexes,  it is not expected that any of the
Local Limited  Partnerships in which the Partnership has invested or will invest
will generate cash sufficient to provide distributions to The Partnership of any
material amount.  Distributions  to the Partnership  would first by used to meet
operating  expenses  of the  Partnership,  including  the  payment  of the Asset
Management Fee to the General Partner.  See Item 11 hereof.  As a result,  it is
not anticipated that the Partnership  will provide  distributions to the Limited
Partners prior to the same of the Apartment Complexes.

The Partnership's  investments are not readily marketable and may be affected by
adverse general economic conditions which, in turn, could substantially increase
the risk of operating  losses for the  Apartment  Complexes,  the Local  Limited
Partnerships  and the  Partnership.  These  problems may result from a number of
factors,   many  of  which  cannot  be  controlled   by  the  General   Partner.
Nevertheless,  the General Partner anticipates that capital raised from the sale
of the Limited  Partnership  Interests is sufficient  to fund the  Partnership's
operations.

The  Partnership  has  established  working  capital  reserves of at least 3% of
capital  contributions,  an amount  which is  anticipated  to be  sufficient  to
satisfy general working capital and administrative  expense  requirements of the
Partnership  excluding  payment of the asset  management fee as well as expenses
attendant to the preparation of tax returns and reports to the Limited  Partners
and other investor  servicing  obligations of the Partnership.  Liquidity would,
however,  be adversely  affected by  unanticipated  or greater than  anticipated
operating costs. To the extent that working capital reserves are insufficient to
satisfy  the  cash  requirements  of the  Partnership,  it is  anticipated  that
additional  funds  would be sought  through  bank  loans or other  institutional
financing.  The General Partner may also apply any cash  distributions  received
from the  Local  Limited  Partnerships  for such  purposes  or to  replenish  or
increase working capital reserves.

Under the  Partnership  Agreement the  Partnership  does not have the ability to
assess its partners for additional  capital  contributions to provide capital if
needed  by the  Partnership  or  Local  Limited  Partnerships.  Accordingly,  if
circumstances arise that cause the Local Limited Partnerships to require capital
in addition to that  contributed by the  Partnership and any equity of the local
general partners, the only sources from which such capital needs will be able to
be  satisfied  (other than the limited  reserves  available  at the  Partnership
level) will be (i) third-party debt financing  (which may not be available,  if,
as expected, the apartment complexes owned by the local limited partnerships are
already  substantially  leveraged),  (ii)  additional  equity  contributions  or
advances of the local general partners,  (iii) other equity sources (which could
adversely  affect the  Partnership's  interest in tax credits,  cash flow and/or
proceeds of sale or refinancing of the apartment complexes and result in adverse

                                       18
<PAGE>

tax  consequences to the limited  partners),  or (iv) the sale or disposition of
the apartment  complexes (which could have the same adverse effects as discussed
in (iii) above).  There can be no assurance  that funds from any of such sources
would be readily available in sufficient amounts to fund the capital requirement
of the local limited partnerships in question.  If such funds are not available,
the  Local  Limited  Partnerships  would  risk  foreclosure  on their  apartment
complexes if they were unable to renegotiate  the terms of their first mortgages
and any other debt secured by the apartment  complexes to the extent the capital
requirements of the local limited partnerships relate to such debt.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

As of December  31,  1997,  the  Partnership  had  acquired in 21 Local  Limited
Partnership Interests.  Each of the 21 Apartment Complexes owned by the 21 Local
Limited  Partnerships  receives  Government  Assistance  and  each of  them  has
received a reservation for Low Income Housing  Credits.  As of December 31, 1996
all 21 of the  Apartment  Complexes  had  commenced  operations.  One  Apartment
Complex,  CROSSINGS,  had not completed construction on all of its units and had
just started its operations.

As reflected on its  Statements of  Operations,  the  Partnership  had losses of
approximately  $769,000,  $573,300 and $571,900 for the years ended December 31,
1997, 1996, and 1995,  respectively.  The component items of revenue and expense
are discussed below.

Revenue.  Partnership  revenues consist of interest earned on cash deposits held
in financial  institutions (i) as Reserves,  or (ii) pending investment in Local
Limited  Partnerships.  Interest  revenue in future  years will be a function of
prevailing  interest  rates and the amount of cash  balances.  It is anticipated
that the Partnership  will maintain cash Reserves in an amount not materially in
excess of the minimum amount required by its Partnership agreement,  which is 3%
of capital contributions.

Expenses. The most significant component of operating expenses is expected to be
the Asset  Management Fee. The Asset  Management Fees is equal to the greater of
(i) $2,000 for each Apartment Complex or (ii) 0.275% of gross proceeds, and will
be decreased or increased annually based on changes to the Consumer Price Index.
The annual management fee incurred was $42,900, for each year ended December 31,
1997, 1996, and 1995, respectively.

Amortization  expense consists of the amortization  over a period of 30 years of
the Acquisition Fee and other expenses  attributable to the acquisition of Local
Limited Partnership investments.

Office expense consists of the Partnership's  administrative  expenses,  such as
accounting and legal fees, bank charges and investor reporting expenses.

Equity in losses from Limited  Partnerships.  The Partnership's equity in losses
from Limited Partnerships is generally equal to 99% of the aggregate net loss of
the Limited  Partnerships.  After rent-up, the Limited Partnerships are expected
to generate losses during each year of operations;  this is so because, although
rental income is expected to exceed cash operating  expenses,  depreciation  and
amortization  deductions  claimed by the Limited  Partnerships  are  expected to
exceed net rental income.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT



To the Partners
WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund IV, L.P., Series 2


We have audited the  accompanying  balance sheets of WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund
IV, L.P., Series 2 (a California Limited  Partnership) (the "Partnership") as of
December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the related statements of operations,  partners'
equity  (deficit) and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and
1995. These financial  statements are the  responsibility  of the  Partnership's
management.  Our  responsibility  is to express  an  opinion on these  financial
statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of the
limited  partnerships in which WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund IV, L.P., Series 2 is
a limited partner.  These  investments,  as discussed in Note 2 to the financial
statements,  are accounted for by the equity  method.  The  investments in these
limited partnerships  represented 85% and 81% of the total assets of WNC Housing
Tax Credit Fund IV, L.P., Series 2 at December 31, 1997 and 1996,  respectively.
Substantially all of the financial  statements of the limited  partnerships were
audited by other  auditors  whose  reports  have been  furnished  to us, and our
opinion,  insofar  as it  relates  to the  amounts  included  for those  limited
partnerships, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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 audits and the  reports  of the other  auditors  provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our  opinion,  based on our audits and the  reports  of other  auditors,  the
financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the  financial  position of WNC Housing  Tax Credit Fund IV,  L.P.,  Series 2 (a
California  Limited  Partnership)  as of  December  31,  1997 and 1996,  and the
results of its  operations  and its cash flows for the years ended  December 31,
1997,  1996  and  1995,  in  conformity  with  generally   accepted   accounting
principles.

                       (A California Limited Partnership)

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

              For The Years Ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995




NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- ---------------------------------------------------

Organization
- ------------

WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund IV, L.P.,  Series 2 (the  "Partnership")  was formed
under the California Revised Limited  Partnership Act on September 27, 1993, and
commenced operations on July 18, 1994. Prior to October 1, 1994, the Partnership
was considered a  development-stage  enterprise.  The  Partnership was formed to
invest  primarily  in other  limited  partnerships  which  will own and  operate
multi-family housing complexes that will qualify for low income housing credits.

The  general  partner  is WNC  Tax  Credit  Partners,  IV,  L.P.  (the  "General
Partner"),  a California  limited  partnership.  WNC &  Associates,  Inc. is the
general  partner of the General  Partner.  Wilfred N. Cooper,  Sr.,  through the
Cooper Revocable Trust,  owns 70% of the outstanding  stock of WNC & Associates,
Inc. John B. Lester,  Jr. is the original limited partner of the Partnership and
owns,  through the Lester Family Trust,  30% of the  outstanding  stock of WNC &
Associates, Inc.

The Partnership agreement authorized the sale of 20,000 units at $1,000 per unit
("Units"). The offering of Units concluded July 1995 at which time 15,600 Units,
representing  subscriptions,  net of discounts for volume purchases of more than
100 units, of $15,241,000 had been accepted.

The General Partner has a 1% interest in operating  profits and losses,  taxable
income and loss and in cash available for distribution from the Partnership. The
limited  partners  will  be  allocated  the  remaining  99% of  these  items  in
proportion to their respective investments.

After the limited  partners  have received  proceeds from a sale or  refinancing
equal to their capital  contributions and their return on investment (as defined
in  the   Partnership   Agreement)  and  the  General  Partner  has  received  a
subordinated  disposition  fee (as described in Note 4), any additional  sale or
refinancing  proceeds  will  be  distributed  90% to the  limited  partners  (in
proportion to their respective investments) and 10% to the General Partner.

The Partnership's  investments in limited  partnerships are subject to the risks
incident to the  management  and  ownership  of  multi-family  residential  real
estate, and include the risks that neither the Partnership's investments nor the
apartment   complexes  owned  by  the  limited   partnerships  will  be  readily
marketable.  Additionally there can be no assurance that the Partnership will be
able to dispose of its interests in the limited  partnerships.  The value of the
Partnership's  investments  will be subject to  changes  in  national  and local
economic conditions,  including unemployment  conditions,  which could adversely
impact vacancy levels, rental payment defaults and operating expenses.  This, in
turn,  could  substantially  increase  the  risk  of  operating  losses  for the
apartment  complexes  and the  Partnership.  The  apartment  complexes  could be
subject to loss through  foreclosure.  In addition,  each limited partnership is
subject to risks relating to  environmental  hazards which might be uninsurable.
Because the Partnership's ability to control its operations will depend on these
and other  factors  beyond the  control of the  General  Partner and the general
partners of the limited partnerships, there can be no assurance that Partnership
operations will be profitable or that the  anticipated  housing tax credits will
be available to limited partners.

                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

              For The Years Ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995



NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
- --------------------------------------------------------------

Method of Accounting For Investments in Limited Partnerships
- ------------------------------------------------------------

The Partnership  accounts for its investments in limited  partnerships using the
equity method of  accounting,  whereby the  Partnership  adjusts its  investment
balance for its share of the limited partnership's results of operations and for
any distributions  received.  The accounting policies of the limited partnership
are  consistent  with the  Partnership.  Costs  incurred by the  Partnership  in
acquiring the investments in limited partnerships are capitalized as part of the
investment and amortized over 30 years (see Note 4).

Losses  from  limited  partnerships  allocated  to the  Partnership  will not be
recognized to the extent that the  investment  balance  would be adjusted  below
zero.

Offering Expenses
- -----------------

Offering  expenses consist of underwriting  commissions,  legal fees,  printing,
filing and  recordation  fees, and other costs  incurred in connection  with the
selling of limited partnership interests in the Partnership. The General Partner
is  obligated  to pay all  offering  and  organization  costs in  excess  of 15%
(including sales commissions) of the total offering proceeds.  Offering expenses
are reflected as a reduction of limited partners' capital.  Through December 31,
1997 and 1996, the Partnership  incurred  offering expenses and selling expenses
of $975,333 and $1,000,455, respectively.

Use of Estimates
- ----------------

The preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect  the  reported  amounts  of assets  and  liabilities  and  disclosure  of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial  statements,  and
the  reported  amounts of revenues  and expenses  during the  reporting  period.
Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
- -------------------------

The  partnership  considers all  investments  with maturities of three months or
less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents totaled $893,070 at
December 31, 1997 and represented investments in U.S. Treasury bills.

Concentration of Credit Risk
- ----------------------------

As of December 31, 1997,  the  Partnership  maintained  cash balances at certain
financial institutions in excess of the federally insured maximum.

              For The Years Ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995


NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
- --------------------------------------------------------------

Net Loss Per Limited Partner Unit
- ---------------------------------

Net loss per limited partner unit is computed by dividing the limited  partners'
share of net loss by the weighted  number of limited  partner units  outstanding
during the period.

NOTE 2 - LOANS RECEIVABLE
- -------------------------

Loans receivable  represent amounts loaned by the Partnership to certain limited
partnerships in which the Partnership may invest.  Loans receivable consisted of
one loan with a balance of $259,496 as of December 31, 1997 which is collectible
from a limited  partnership in which an interest to be acquired in 1998 is being
negotiated (see Note 6).

NOTE 3 - INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS
- --------------------------------------------

As of December 31,  1997,  the  Partnership  had  acquired  limited  partnership
interests in twenty-one  limited  partnerships  each of which owns one apartment
complex  consisting of an aggregate of 851 apartment  units.  As of December 31,
1997,  construction or rehabilitation of all but one of the apartment  complexes
had been completed.  The respective general partners of the limited partnerships
manage  the  day to day  operations  of the  limited  partnerships.  Significant
limited  partnership  business  decisions require approval from the Partnership.
The Partnership,  as a limited partner,  is entitled to 96% to 99%, as specified
in the  partnership  agreements,  of the  operating  profits  and  losses of the
limited partnerships upon its acquisition of its limited partnership interests.

The  Partnership's   investments  in  limited   partnerships  as  shown  in  the
accompanying  balance sheets as of December 31, 1997 and 1996 are  approximately
$1,555,000 and $1,446,000 greater than the Partnership's  equity as shown in the
limited partnerships' financial statements.  This difference is primarily due to
acquisition  costs related to the acquisition of the investments  that have been
capitalized in the Partnership's investment account and are being amortized over
30 years and certain capital contributions accrued but not paid (see Note 4).

NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
- -----------------------------------

Under the terms of the  Partnership  Agreement,  the Partnership is obligated to
the General Partner or its affiliates for the following items:

         Acquisition  fees of up to 8% of the  gross  proceeds  from the sale of
         Partnership  units as compensation for services  rendered in connection
         with the  acquisition  of limited  partnerships.  Through  December 31,
         1997,  the  Partnership   incurred   acquisition  fees  of  $1,058,950.
         Accumulated amortization amounted to $96,331 and $61,031 as of December
         31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

         Reimbursement  of costs represent  amounts  incurred by an affiliate of
         the  General  Partner in  connection  with the  acquisition  of limited
         partnerships.  These  reimbursements  will not exceed 1.2% of the gross
         proceeds.  As of December 31, 1997 and 1996, the  Partnership  incurred
         acquisition  costs of $168,638 and $160,360,  respectively,  which have

         amortization was $12,447 and $6,924 for 1997 and 1996, respectively.

         An  annual  asset  management  fee equal to the  greater  amount of (i)
         $2,000 for each apartment complex, or (ii) 0.275% of gross proceeds. In
         either case,  the fee will be decreased or increased  annually based on
         changes to the  Consumer  Price  Index.  However,  in no event will the
         maximum  amount  exceed  0.2% of the  invested  assets  (defined as the
         Partnership's  capital  contributions plus its allocable  percentage of
         the mortgage debt  encumbering the apartment  complexes) of the limited
         partnerships. The Partnership incurred asset management fees of $42,900
         for each of the years ended  December 31, 1997,  1996 and 1995.  During
         1997 and 1996, the Partnership paid $6,000 and $155,000,  respectively,
         of such fees to the General Partner.

         A  subordinated  disposition  fee in an amount equal to 1% of the sales
         price of real estate sold.  Payment of this fee is  subordinated to the
         limited  partners  receiving a return on investment  (as defined in the
         Partnership  Agreement) and is payable only if services are rendered in
         the sales effort.

Accrued  fees and  advances  due the General  Partner and  affiliate  consist of
advances  made for  acquisition  costs,  organizational,  offering  and  selling
expenses

Payables  to limited  partnerships  represent  amounts  which are due at various
times based on conditions specified in the limited partnership agreements. These
contributions are non-interest  bearing, are payable in installments and are due
upon the  limited  partnerships  achieving  certain  development  and  operating
benchmarks (generally within two years of the Partnership's initial investment).
