ITEM 1.  CHANGES IN CONTROL OF REGISTRANT.

              Not applicable.

ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

         STATUS OF THE OFFERING          
         ----------------------

         Pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-11 under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, effective March 29, 1995, CNL American
Properties Fund, Inc. (the "Company") registered for sale an aggregate of
$165,000,000 of shares of common stock (the "Shares") (16,500,000 Shares at
$10 per Share).  As of June 21, 1996, the Company had received aggregate
subscription proceeds of $74,964,637 (7,496,464 Shares) from 4,410
stockholders, including $128,151 (12,815 Shares) issued pursuant to the
Company's reinvestment plan.

         As stated in the registration statement of the Company, including the
Prospectus which constitutes a part thereof, as amended, the proceeds of the
offering of Shares are used primarily to acquire properties (the "Properties")
located across the United States to be leased on a long-term, triple-net basis
to creditworthy operators of selected national and regional fast-food, family-
style and casual dining restaurant chains.  The Company may also provide
financing (the "Mortgage Loans") for the purchase of buildings, generally by
lessees that lease the underlying land from the Company.

         ACQUISITION OF PROPERTIES          
         -------------------------

         During the period May 22, 1996 through June 21, 1996, the Company
acquired seven Properties.  The Properties are two Wendy's Properties (one in
each of Sevierville, Tennessee, and Camarillo, California), two Denny's
Properties (one in each of Hillsboro and McKinney, Texas), two Boston Market
Properties (one in each of Ellisville, Missouri, and Golden Valley, Minnesota)
and one Jack in the Box Property (in Humble, Texas).

         The Denny's  Property in McKinney, Texas, was acquired from an
Affiliate of the Company.  The Affiliate had purchased and temporarily held
title to the Property in order to facilitate the acquisition of the Property
by the Company.  The Property was acquired by the Company for a purchase price
of $977,256 from the Affiliate, representing the cost of the Property to the
Affiliate (including carrying costs) due to the fact that these amounts were
less than the Property's appraised value.

         In connection with the purchase of the Wendy's Property in
Sevierville, Tennessee, which is building only, the Company, as lessor,
entered into a long-term lease agreement with an unaffiliated lessee.  The
lease is on a triple-net basis, with the lessee responsible for all repairs
and maintenance, property taxes, insurance and utilities.  The lessee also is
required to pay for special assessments, sales and use taxes, and the cost of
any renovations permitted under the lease.  The Company has also entered into
a tri-party agreement relating to this Property with the lessee and the owner
of the land.  The tri-party agreement provides that the ground lessee is
responsible for all obligations under the ground lease and provides certain
rights to the Company relating to the maintenance of its interest in the
building in the event of a default by the lessee under the terms of the ground
lease.  In addition, in connection with this Property, which is to be
constructed, the Company has entered into development and indemnification and
put agreements with the lessee.

         In connection with the purchase of each of the remaining six
Properties which consist of land and building, the Company, as lessor, entered
into long-term lease agreements with unaffiliated lessees.  The leases are on
a triple-net basis, with the lessee responsible for all repairs and
maintenance, property taxes, insurance and utilities.  The lessee also is
required to pay for special assessments, sales and use taxes, and the cost of
any renovations permitted under the lease.  For the Properties that are to be
constructed, the Company has entered into development and indemnification and
put agreements with the lessees.    

         The following table sets forth the location of each of the seven
Properties acquired by the Company, during the period May 22, 1996 through
June 21, 1996, a description of the competition, and a summary of the
principal terms of the acquisition and lease of each Property.

      lessee  to  the Company over the term of the lease shall equal or exceed
      15%  of the purchase price paid by the Company, then the option purchase
      price  shall  equal  one  dollar.    In  the  event  that  the aggregate
      percentage  rent  paid shall be less than 15% of the purchase price paid
      by  the  Company,  then  the  option  purchase  price  shall  equal  the
      difference  of  15% of the purchase price, less the aggregate percentage
      rent paid to the landlord by the lessee under the lease.

(8)   The  lessee  of  the  Camarillo,  and Sevierville Properties is the same
      unaffiliated lessee.

(9)   The  lessee  of  the Ellisville and Golden Valley Properties is the same

(2)   The Properties will be managed pursuant to an advisory agreement between

      amount  equal  to one-twelfth of .60% of the Company's Real Estate Asset
      Value as of the end of the preceding month as defined in such agreement.

      the  previous  experience  of  Affiliates  of the Advisor with 17 public
      limited  partnerships which own properties similar to those owned by the
      Company.  Amount does not include soliciting dealer servicing fee due to
      the  fact  that  such  fee will not be incurred until December 31 of the

(b)   Represents  the  use  of $189,412 of the Company's net offering proceeds
      and  the  assumed  receipt  of  $2,357 in capital contributions from the
      Company's  co-venture  partner  in  accordance  with  the  joint venture
      a g reement  of  CNL/Corral  South  Joint  Venture,  to  fund  estimated
      construction  costs of $191,769 accrued as construction costs payable at
      March  31, 1996, relating to the one property of the joint venture.  The
      Company  accounts  for its 84.69% interest in the accounts of CNL/Corral
      S o uth  Joint  Venture  under  the  full  consolidation  method.    All
      significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

(c)   In  accordance  with generally accepted accounting principles, leases in
      which  the  present  value  of  future  minimum lease payments equals or
      exceeds 90 percent of the value of the related properties are treated as
      direct  financing  leases  rather  than  as  land  and  buildings.   The
      categorization  of the leases has no effect on rental revenues received.
      The building portions of eight of the properties have been classified as
      direct financing leases.

Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Earnings:
- ----------------------------------------------

(1)   Represents  rental  income  from operating leases and earned income from
      direct  financing  leases  for  the  seven of the 68 properties acquired
      during  the  period June 2, 1995 (the date the Company began operations)
      through  June  21, 1996 which had a previous rental history prior to the
      acquisition of the property by the Company (the "Pro Forma Properties"),
      for  the  period  commencing (A) the later of (i) the date the Pro Forma
      Property  became  operational as a rental property by the previous owner
      or  (ii)  June 2, 1995 (the date the Company became operational), to (B)
      the  earlier  of (i) the date the Pro Forma Property was acquired by the
      Company  or (ii) the end of the pro forma period presented.  Each of the
      seven  Pro  Forma  Properties  was  acquired  from  an affiliate who had
      p u r c h ased  and  temporarily  held  title  to  the  property.    The
      noncancellable  leases  for the Pro Forma Properties in place during the
      period  the  affiliate owned the properties were assigned to the Company
      at the time the Company acquired the properties.  The following presents
      the actual date the Pro Forma Properties were acquired by the Company as
      compared  to  the date the Pro Forma Properties were treated as becoming
      operational  as  a  rental  property  for  purposes  of  the  Pro  Forma
      Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

      In  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles, lease
      revenue  from  leases  accounted  for  under  the  operating  method  is
      recognized over the terms of the leases.  For operating leases providing
      escalating  guaranteed  minimum rents, income is reported on a straight-
      line  basis  over  the terms of the leases.  For leases accounted for as
      direct financing leases, future minimum lease payments are recorded as a
      receivable.    The  difference  between the receivable and the estimated
      residual  values less the cost of the properties is recorded as unearned
      income.    The  unearned  income  is  amortized  over the lease terms to
      provide a constant rate of return.  Accordingly, pro forma rental income
      from  operating  leases  and  earned income from direct financing leases
      does  not  necessarily  represent  rental  payments that would have been
      received  if  the properties had been operational for the full pro forma
      period.

      Generally,  the  leases  provide  for  the payment of percentage rent in
      addition  to  base  rental  income.    However,  due to the fact that no
      percentage  rent  was  due under the leases for the Pro Forma Properties
      during  the  portion  of 1996 and 1995 that the previous owners held the
      properties,  no  pro  forma  adjustment  was  made for percentage rental
      income  for  the  quarter  ended  March  31,  1996  and  the  year ended
      December 31, 1995.

(2)   See  Note  (c)  under "Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet" above for a
      description of direct financing leases.

(3)   Represents  adjustment  to  interest  income  due to the decrease in the
      amount  of  cash  available  for investment in interest bearing accounts
      during  the periods commencing (A) on the later of (i) the dates the Pro
      Forma Properties became operational as rental properties by the previous
      owners  or  (ii) June 2, 1995 (the date the Company became operational),
      through  (B)  the  earlier of (i) the actual dates of acquisition by the
      Company  or  the  end of the pro forma period presented, as described in
      Note  (1)  above.   The estimated pro forma adjustment is based upon the
      fact  that  interest income on interest bearing accounts was earned at a
      rate  of  approximately four percent per annum by the Company during the
      quarter ended March 31, 1996 and the year ended December 31, 1995.

 (4)   Represents incremental increase in asset management fees relating to the
      Pro  Forma  Properties for the period commencing (A) on the later of (i)
      the   date  the  Pro  Forma  Properties  became  operational  as  rental
      properties  by  the  previous  owners or (ii) June 2, 1995 (the date the
      Company became operational), through (B) the earlier of (i) the date the
      Pro Forma Properties were acquired by the Company or (ii) the end of the
      pro  forma  period  presented,  as  described  in Note (1) above.  Asset
      management  fees  are  equal to 0.60% of the Company's Real Estate Asset
      Value  (estimated  to be approximately $6,219,000 and $5,241,000 for the
      Pro  Forma  Properties for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 and the year
      ended  December  31,  1995,  respectively),  as defined in the Company's
      prospectus.

(5)   Represents  adjustment  to  state  tax  expense  due  to the incremental
      increase  in  rental  revenues  of  Pro Forma Properties.  Estimated pro
      forma  state  tax  expense  was calculated based on an analysis of state
      laws  of  the  various  states in which the Company has acquired the Pro
      Forma Properties.  The estimated pro forma state taxes consist primarily
      of  income  and  franchise taxes ranging from zero to approximately five
      percent  of  the  Company's  pro  forma  rental income of each Pro Forma
      Property.  Due to the fact that the Company's leases are triple net, the
      Company  has  not  included any amounts for real estate taxes in the pro
      forma statement of earnings.

(6)   Represents  incremental increase in depreciation expense of the building
      portions  of the Pro Forma  Properties accounted for as operating leases
      using  the  straight-line  method  over  an  estimated useful life of 30
      years.

(7)   Historical  earnings  per  share were calculated based upon the weighted
      average  number of shares of common stock outstanding during the quarter
      ended March 31, 1996, and during the period the Company was operational,
      June  2,  1995 (the date following when the Company received the minimum
      offering  proceeds and funds were released from escrow) through December
      31, 1995.

      As  a  result  of three of the six Pro Forma Properties being treated in
      the  Pro  Forma  Consolidated  Statement  of Earnings for the year ended
      December  31,  1995,  as placed in service on June 2, 1995 (the date the
      Company  became  operational), the Company assumed approximately 347,100
      shares  of  common  stock  were sold, and the net offering proceeds were
      available  for  investment,  on  June  2,  1996.    Due to the fact that
      approximately 184,800 of these shares of common stock were actually sold
      subsequently,  during the period June 3, 1995 through June 20, 1995, the
      weighted  average  number of shares outstanding for the pro forma period
      was  adjusted.   Pro forma earnings per share were calculated based upon
      the  weighted  average  number of shares of common stock outstanding, as
      adjusted,  during  the  period the Company was operational, June 2, 1995
      through December 31, 1995.
