                      NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND FORMATION OF COMPANY:

    The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of
    CP Limited Partnership. (the "Company"), have been prepared in accordance
    with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
    information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
    Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
    and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for
    complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all     
    adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been     
    included, and such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  The 
    year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited  
    consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures 
    required by generally accepted accounting principles. For further 
    information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
    thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year
    ended December 31, 1996.

    Chateau Communities, Inc. ("Chateau"), a Real Estate Investment Trust
    ("REIT"), is the sole general partner of the Company.  On November 23,
    1993, Chateau completed a public offering of 5,700,000 shares of $.01 par
    value common stock (the "Equity Offering").  Simultaneous with the Equity
    Offering, Chateau contributed the net proceeds from the Equity Offering and
    was admitted as the sole general partner of the Company.
     
2.  MERGER WITH ROC COMMUNITIES, INC.

    In February 1997, the Company completed its merger with ROC Communities,
    Inc. (the "Merger"). The Merger and related transactions were accounted for
    using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with generally
    accepted accounting principles.  Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of
    ROC were adjusted to fair value for financial accounting purposes and the
    results of operations of ROC are included in the results of operations of
    the Company beginning February 1, 1997.

    In connection with the Merger, the following related transactions occurred:

    -    The Company repurchased and retired 1,200,000 OP units from Chateau,
         in late 1996 and early 1997.

    -    ROC purchased 350,000 shares of Chateau common stock, which were
         retired along with a equivalent number of units at the time of the
         merger.

    -    The Company issued 1.042 OP units to Chateau to reflect an equivalent
         number of shares issued by Chateau for each share of ROC stock
         outstanding.

    -    The Company paid a distribution equal to .0326 units per OP Unit
         outstanding, to reflect an equivalent stock dividend by Chateau.


                                       4
<PAGE>

    -    Certain limited partners converted 6,170,908 OP Units for common
         shares which results in those units being held by Chateau.  These
         Unitholders waived their right to receive the above distribution with
         respect to those OP units exchanged and as a result it was allocated
         to Chateau, resulting in an effective distribution to the general
         partner of .068 OP units.

    -    The exchanging limited partners purchased 984,423 additional shares of
         common stock from Chateau with the proceeds.

In connection with the Merger, Chateau issued common stock valued at
approximately $351 million, including the costs incurred to complete the Merger,
which was allocated as follows:

Rental property                          $   501.3
Net working capital                           15.8
Debt assumed                                (166.1)
                                        ------------

                                         $   351.0
                                        ------------
                                        ------------

As of June 30, 1997, Chateau owned 128 communities with an aggregate 42,986
residential homesites. In addition, it fee manages 6,953 residential homesites
in 34 communities.

The following unaudited pro forma income statement information has been prepared
as if the Merger and related transactions had occurred on January 1, 1996.  In
addition, the pro forma information is presented as if the acquisition of 13
properties made in 1996 by Chateau and ROC had occurred on January 1, 1996.  The
pro forma income statement information is not necessarily indicative of the
results which actually would have occurred if the Merger had been consummated on
January 1, 1996.

ITEM 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of interim results of operations and 
financial condition covers the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 
1996 and should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated 
Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in this report.  Certain 
statements in this report constitute "forward-looking statements" within the 
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Reform 
Act").  Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, 
uncertainties and other factors  which may cause the actual results, 
performance or achievements of the Company or industry results to be 
materially different from any future results, performance or achievements 
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

On February 11, 1997, Chateau completed its merger ("the "Merger") with ROC 
Communities, Inc. ("ROC"). The historical results for the six months ended 
June 30, 1997 include the results of operations of ROC for five months. 

HISTORICAL RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
1996

For the three months ended June 30, 1997, income before minority interest was 
$6,123,000, an increase of $2,524,000 from the three months ended June 30, 
1996. The increase was due primarily to the Merger, as well as acquisitions 
that were consummated in 1997 and 1996 by the Company or ROC, and increased 
net operating income from communities owned by the Company and ROC on January 
1, 1996 (the "Core 1996 Portfolio").  The increase in net operating income 
from the Company's Core 1996 Portfolio was due to increased occupancy and 
rental increases partially offset by general operating expense increases.

Rental revenue in the three months ended June 30, 1997 was $34,817,000, an 
increase of $18,021,000 from the three months ended June 30, 1996. 
Approximately 81 percent of the increase was due to the Merger, and 13 
percent was due to 1997 and 1996 acquisitions made by the Company or ROC.  
The remaining 6 percent increase was due to rental increases and occupancy 
gains of the Company's Core 1996 Portfolio.  Management fee, interest and 
other income increased approximately $750,000 in 1997 from 1996, due to the 
Merger and the increase in income from the Company's sales subsidiary.

Property operating and maintenance expense for the three months ended June 
30, 1997 increased by $4,791,000 or 97 percent from the same period a year 
ago.  The majority of the increase was due to the Merger and 1997 and 1996 
acquisitions. The remaining increase was due to increases in the Company's 
Core 1996 Portfolio.

Real estate taxes for the three months ended June 30, 1997, increased by 
$1,375,000 or 116 percent from the three months ended June 30, 1996.  The 
increase is due primarily to the Merger, acquisitions and expansions of 
communities and general increases.  Real estate taxes may increase or 
decrease due to inflation, expansions and improvements of communities, as 
well as changes in taxation in the tax jurisdictions in which the Company 
operates.

Administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 1997 increased due 
to the Merger.  Administrative expense in 1997 was 5.7 percent of revenues as 
compared to 5.9 percent in 1996.

Interest and related amortization costs increased for the three months ended 
June 30, 1997 by $3,467,000, as compared with the three months ended June 30, 
1996.  The increase is attributable to the indebtedness incurred in 
connection with the Merger and to finance the 1997 and 1996 acquisitions.  
Interest expense as a percentage of average debt outstanding decreased to 
approximately 7.7 percent in 1997 from approximately 8.8 percent in 1996.  
The decrease is due primarily to the ROC debt assumed in the Merger having a 
lower average interest rate as well as much of the financing in connection 
with the Merger and the 1997 and 1996 acquisitions being done with the 
Company's lines of credit which have a lower average interest rate.

Depreciation expense for the three months ended June 30, 1997, increased 
$5,588,000 from the same period a year ago.  The increase is directly 
attributable to the Merger.  Depreciation expense as a percentage of average 
depreciable rental property in 1997 remained relatively unchanged from 1996.
                                           
COMPARISON OF SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996

For the six months ended June 30, 1997, income before minority interest was 
$11,710,000, an increase of $3,790,000 from the six months ended June 30, 
1996. The increase was due primarily to the Merger, as well as acquisitions 
that were consummated in 1997 and 1996 by the Company or ROC, and increased 
net operating income from the Core 1996 Portfolio.  The increase in net 
operating income from the Company's Core 1996 Portfolio was due to increased 
occupancy and rental increases partially offset by general operating expense 
increases.

Rental revenue in the first half 1997 was $63,725,000, an increase of 
$30,579,000 from first half 1996.  Approximately 77 percent of the increase 
was due to the Merger, and 12 percent was due to 1997 and 1996 acquisitions 
made by the Company or ROC.  The remaining 11 percent increase was due to 
rental increases and occupancy gains of the Company's Core 1996 Portfolio.  
Management fee, interest and other income increased approximately $1,177,000 
in 1997 from 1996, due to the Merger and the increase in income from the 
Company's sales subsidiary.

Property operating and maintenance expense for the six months ended June 30, 
1997 increased by $8,746,000 or 97 percent from the same period a year ago.  
The majority of the increase was due to the Merger and 1997 and 1996 
acquisitions. The remaining increase was due to increases in the Company's 
Core 1996 Portfolio.

Real estate taxes for the six months ended June 30, 1997, increased by 
$2,319,000 or 98 percent from the six months ended June 30, 1996.  The 
increase is due primarily to the Merger, acquisitions and expansions of 
communities and general increases.  Real estate taxes may increase or 
decrease due to inflation, expansions and improvements of communities, as 
well as changes in taxation in the tax jurisdictions in which the Company 
operates.

Administrative expense for the first half of 1997 increased due to the 
Merger. Administrative expense in 1997 was 5.5 percent of revenues as 
compared to 6.1 percent in 1996.

Interest and related amortization costs increased for the six months ended 
June 30, 1997 by $5,852,000, as compared with the six months ended June 30, 
1996. The increase is attributable to the indebtedness incurred in connection 
with the Merger and to finance the 1997 and 1996 acquisitions.  Interest 
expense as a percentage of average debt outstanding decreased to 
approximately 7.6 percent in 1997 from approximately 8.9 percent in 1996.  
The decrease is due primarily to the ROC debt assumed in the Merger having a 
lower average interest rate as well as much of the financing in connection 
with the Company's Merger and the 1997 and 1996 acquisitions being done with 
the Company's lines of credit which have a lower average interest rate.

Depreciation expense for the six months ended June 30, 1997, increased 
$9,497,000 from the same period a year ago.  The increase is directly 
attributable to the Merger.  Depreciation expense as a percentage of average 
depreciable rental property in 1997 remained relatively unchanged from 1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash provided by operating activities was $19,979,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1997, compared to $13,449,000 for the six months ended June 30,
1996.  The increase in cash provided by operating activities was due primarily
to the increase in net operating income.

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 1997 was
$700,000.  Use of cash included distributions made to OP Unitholders of
$17,878,000; net borrowings on the lines of credit of $10,710,000 and the
payment of $19,851,000 to repurchase and retire 750,000 OP units from Chateau in
connection with the Merger.  The units were repurchased in February 1997 at an
average price of approximately $26.47 per unit.  This use of cash was offset
partially by proceeds of $25,477,000 from the issuance of 984,423 OP units to
Chateau at approximately $25.88 per unit.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six month ended June 30, 1997 was
$19,707,000.  This amount represented joint venture investments, acquisitions,
capital expenditures and construction and development costs.  For the six months
ended June 30, 1997, construction and development costs, including joint
ventures, were approximately $4,000,000, while recurring property capital
expenditures, other than construction and development costs, were approximately
$1,000,000.  Recurring property capital expenditures in 1997 increased due to
the Merger.  Capital expenditures have historically been financed with funds
from operations and it is the Company's intention that such future expenditures
will be financed with funds from operations.

Future acquisitions of communities and land for development of sites will be
financed through borrowings on the line of credit, the issuance of additional
equity or debt securities, assumption of existing secured or unsecured
indebtedness or the issuance of OP units or capital contributions by Chateau. 
The development of expansion sites will be financed primarily by cash flow from
operations and borrowings on the line of credit.  At June 30, the Company had
two available credit facilities aggregating $100 million, each of which is
unsecured and bears interest at 150 basis points over LIBOR.  As of June 30,
1997, there was $81.5 million outstanding under the lines of credit.

In July 1997, the Company renegotiated its existing Lines of Credit and
consolidated them into one line for $75 million which also includes a term loan
for $25 million.  The line of credit has First Chicago/NBD acting as lead agent,
is unsecured and bears interest at 110 basis points over LIBOR.

The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements through 
cash flow from operations and, if necessary, borrowings under its line of 
credit.

The Company anticipates meeting its long-term liquidity requirements from 
borrowings under its line of credit, from the issuance of additional debt or 
equity securities and cash flows from operations.

OTHER

Funds from operations ("FFO") is defined by the National Association of Real 
Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") as net income excluding gains (or losses) 
from debt restructuring and sales of property plus rental property 
depreciation and amortization.  Management believes that FFO is an important 
and widely used measure of the operating performance of REITs which provides 
a relevant basis for comparison among REITs.  FFO (i) does not represent cash 
flow from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles; 
(ii) should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of 
operating performance or to cash flows from operating, investing and 
financing activities; and (iii) is not an alternative to cash flows as a 
measure of liquidity.  FFO is calculated as follows:
