                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To the Partners of
Crescent Real Estate Equities Limited Partnership:

We have audited the accompanying statement of excess of revenues over specific
operating expenses (as defined in Note 2) of Trammell Crow Center for the year
ended December 31, 1996.  This statement is the responsibility of the
Property's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this
statement 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 statement is free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the statement.  An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the statement referred to above presents fairly, in all
material respects, the excess of revenues over specific operating expenses of
Trammell Crow Center for the year ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                    NOTES TO STATEMENT OF EXCESS OF REVENUES
                        OVER SPECIFIC OPERATING EXPENSES 

                               DECEMBER 31, 1996



1.  ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

Description of Property

Trammell Crow Center (the "Property") is a 50-story office tower located in the
central business district of Dallas, Texas.  The Property contains approximately
1,133,000 rentable square feet as well as an underground parking garage.  C-W
#11 Limited Partnership ("C-W #11") is the lessee of the land under a ground
lease, as amended February 28, 1997, which expires December 2037. The fee owner
of the land is one of the Property's lenders.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Rental Income and Deferred Rent Concessions

In connection with obtaining certain tenants under long-term leases, property
management grants rent concessions.  The aggregate rental payments due over the
terms of the leases are recognized as rental income on a straight-line basis
over the full term of the leases, including the periods of rent concessions.

Recoveries

A portion of the operating expenses is charged back to tenants on a monthly
basis based upon estimated expenses.  These charges are adjusted at period-end,
based upon actual expenses.

2.  BASIS OF ACCOUNTING:

The accompanying statement of excess of revenues over specific operating
expenses is presented on the accrual basis of accounting.  This statement is
not intended to be a complete presentation of revenues and operating expenses
for the year ended December 31, 1996, as certain items such as depreciation,
amortization, interest, and partnership administrative expenses have been
excluded since they are not comparable to the proposed future operations of the
Property.

3.  PROPERTY MANAGEMENT:

C-W #11 entered into a management agreement with Trammell Crow Dallas/Fort
Worth, Inc. (the "Manager") on June 1, 1993.  The agreement with the Manager
requires a management fee of 2% of gross rental receipts, as defined.
Effective January 1, 1997, the monthly management fee decreases to 1.75% of
gross rental receipts.  Total management fees for the year ended December 31,
1996, were approximately $454,000.  The agreement may be terminated at any time
by either party in accordance with the





                                      F-4
<PAGE>   10



management agreement.  If terminated, the management fees must be paid through
the month in which the Manager's service will extend.

4.  SIGNIFICANT TENANTS:

The largest tenant of the Property occupies approximately 173,000 square feet,
or 15%, of the total leasable square footage.  This lease expires in December
1999.  The second largest tenant of the Property occupies approximately 132,000
square feet, or 12%, of the total leasable square footage.  This lease expires
in June 2005.

5.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

Lease Commitments

Ground lease expense for the year ended December 31, 1996 was approximately
$1.7 million.  Future minimum lease payments due under the ground lease as of
December 31, 1996, are as follows:

</TABLE>

Contingencies

The accompanying statement of excess of revenues over specific operating
expenses includes bad debt expense of approximately $675,000 relating to a
legal dispute which is in the settlement process.

6.  INTENT TO SELL:

On January 14, 1997, the fee owner of the Property and both of the Property's
mortgage note lenders approved a nonbinding letter of intent to sell their
interest (including equity, debt, and accrued interest) in the Property to an
unaffiliated third party.  The expected sales price is approximately $162
million.
