                     NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
           Quarters and Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997 and 1996


1.       Significant Accounting Policies:

         Basis of Presentation - The accompanying  unaudited condensed financial
         statements  have been prepared in accordance  with the  instructions to
         Form  10-Q  and  do  not  include  all  of  the  information  and  note
         disclosures required by generally accepted accounting  principles.  The
         financial  statements  reflect all  adjustments,  consisting  of normal
         recurring  adjustments,  which  are,  in  the  opinion  of  management,
         necessary to a fair  statement  of the results for the interim  periods
         presented.  Operating  results for the  quarter  and nine months  ended
         September  30, 1997,  may not be  indicative of the results that may be
         expected for the year ended  December 31, 1997.  Amounts as of December
         31, 1996, included in the financial statements,  have been derived from
         audited financial statements as of that date.

         These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with
         the financial statements and notes thereto included in Form 10-K of CNL
         Income Fund XVIII, Ltd. (the "Partnership") for the year ended December
         31, 1996.

         The  Partnership was a development  stage  enterprise from February 10,
         1995  through  October  11,  1996.  Since  operations  had  not  begun,
         activities  through October 11, 1996, were devoted to the  organization
         of the Partnership.

         Real  Estate  and  Lease  Accounting  -  The  Partnership  records  the
         acquisition of land and buildings at cost,  including  acquisition  and
         closing costs. Land and buildings are leased to unrelated third parties
         on a triple-net basis, whereby the tenant is generally  responsible for
         all operating  expenses  relating to the property,  including  property
         taxes, insurance, maintenance and repairs. The leases are accounted for
         using  either the  direct  financing  or the  operating  methods.  Such
         methods are described below:

                  Direct  financing  method - The leases accounted for using the
                  direct  financing  method are recorded at their net investment
                  (which at the inception of the lease generally  represents the
                  cost of the asset) (see Note 4).  Unearned  income is deferred
                  and  amortized to income over the lease terms so as to produce
                  a constant  periodic rate of return on the  Partnership's  net
                  investment in the leases.

                  Operating  method - Land and  building  leases  accounted  for
                  using the  operating  method are recorded at cost,  revenue is
                  recognized as rentals

1.       Significant Accounting Policies - Continued:

                  are  earned and  depreciation  is  charged  to  operations  as
                  incurred.  Buildings  are  depreciated  on  the  straight-line
                  method over their  estimated  useful  lives of 30 years.  When
                  scheduled rentals (including rental payments, if any, required
                  during the  construction  of a property) vary during the lease
                  term,  income is recognized on a straight-line  basis so as to
                  produce  a  constant   periodic   rent  over  the  lease  term
                  commencing on the date the property is placed in service.

         Rents Paid in  Advance - Rents  paid in  advance by lessees  for future
         periods are deferred upon receipt and are recognized as revenues during
         the period in which the rental income is earned.  Rents paid in advance
         include "interim rent" payments  required to be paid under the terms of
         certain leases for  construction  properties  equal to a pre-determined
         rate  times the  amount  funded by the  Partnership  during  the period
         commencing  with the  effective  date of the lease to the date  minimum
         annual rent becomes payable.  Once minimum annual rent becomes payable,
         the "interim rent" payments are amortized and recorded as income either
         (i) over the lease term so as to produce a  constant  periodic  rate of
         return for leases accounted for using the direct financing  method,  or
         (ii) over the lease  term  using the  straight-line  method  for leases
         accounted for using the operating method, whichever is applicable.

2.       Leases:

         The Partnership  leases its land and buildings to operators of national
         and regional fast-food, family-style and casual dining restaurants. The
         leases are accounted for under the provisions of Statement of Financial
         Accounting  Standards No. 13,  "Accounting for Leases." Fourteen of the
         leases are  classified  as operating  leases and six of the leases have
         been classified as direct financing  leases.  For the leases classified
         as direct  financing  leases,  the building  portions of the leases are
         accounted  for as direct  financing  leases  while the land  portion of
         three of these leases are accounted for as operating leases. The leases
         have  initial  terms of 15 to 20 years  and  provide  for  minimum  and
         contingent rentals. In addition, the tenant pays all property taxes and
         assessments,  fully maintains the interior and exterior of the building
         and carries insurance  coverage for public liability,  property damage,
         fire and extended coverage. The lease options generally allow the

         tenants  to renew the  leases  for four  successive  five-year  periods
         subject to the same terms and  conditions  as the initial  lease.  Most
         leases  also allow the tenant to purchase  the  property at fair market
         value after a specified portion of the lease has elapsed.

3.       Land and Buildings on Operating Leases:

         Land and buildings on operating leases consisted of the following at:

         Some of the leases provide for scheduled rent increases  throughout the
         lease term and/or rental payments during the construction of a property
         prior to the date it is placed in service.  Such amounts are recognized
         on a straight-line  basis over the terms of the leases. For the quarter
         and nine months ended  September 30, 1997, the  Partnership  recognized
         $46,531 and $72,156, respectively, of such rental income.

         The following is a schedule of the future  minimum lease payments to be
         received on the noncancellable operating leases for the properties that
         were operational as of September 30, 1997:

3.       Land and Buildings on Operating Leases - Continued:

         Since  lease  renewal  periods  are  exercisable  at the  option of the
         tenant, the above table only presents future minimum lease payments due
         during  the  initial  lease  terms.  In  addition,  this table does not
         include any amounts for future contingent rentals which may be received
         on the leases  based on a  percentage  of  tenant's  gross  sales.  The
         amounts also do not include minimum lease payments that will become due
         when the properties under development are completed (see Note 8).

         partner  contributions  of $19,964,832  received during the nine months
         ended  September 30, 1997.  The majority of these fees was reallowed to
         other  broker-dealers  and  from  which  all bona  fide  due  diligence
         expenses were paid.

         Additionally,  during the nine months ended  September  30,  1997,  the
         Partnership  incurred  $898,417  in  acquisition  fees  due to CNL Fund

         properties on behalf of the  Partnership.  These fees represent 4.5% of
         the limited  partner  capital  contributions  received  during the nine
         months ended September 30, 1997, and are included in land and buildings
         on operating  leases,  net  investment in direct  financing  leases and
         other assets.

7.       Concentration of Credit Risk:

         The  following  schedule  presents  total rental and earned income from
         individual  lessees,  each  representing  more than ten  percent of the
         Partnership's  total rental and earned income for the nine months ended

         In addition,  the following  schedule  presents total rental and earned
         income from individual  restaurant chains,  each representing more than
         ten percent of the Partnership's total rental and earned income for the
         nine months ended September 30:

                                                     1997              1996

         It is expected  that the  percentage  of total rental and earned income
         contributed  by these  lessees and  restaurant  chains will decrease as
         additional  properties  are acquired and leased during the remainder of
         1997 and in subsequent years.

         Although  the  Partnership's   properties  are  geographically  diverse
         throughout the United States and the  Partnership's  lessees  operate a
         variety of restaurant concepts,  default by any one of these lessees or
         restaurant chains could significantly  impact the results of operations
         of the Partnership. However, the general partners believe that the risk
         of such a default is reduced due to the  essential or important  nature
         of these properties for the ongoing operations of the lessees.

8.       Commitments:

         The  Partnership  has entered into three  development  agreements  with
         tenants which provide terms and  specifications for the construction of
         buildings  that the tenants have agreed to lease once  construction  is
         completed. The agreements provide a maximum amount of development costs
         (including the purchase price of the land and closing costs) to be paid
         by  the  Partnership.  The  aggregate  maximum  development  costs  the
         Partnership  has agreed to pay is  approximately  $4,023,600,  of which
         approximately  $2,526,000  in land and other costs had been incurred as
         of September 30, 1997. The buildings under construction are expected to
         be operational by March 1998. The lease agreements for these properties
         are  substantially the same as the leases relating to the Partnership's
         other properties, as described in Note 2.

9.       Subsequent Event:

         During the  period  October  1, 1997  through  October  31,  1997,  the
         Partnership  received capital  contributions for an additional  181,088
         units ($1,810,881) of limited partnership interest.

         In  addition,  during the period  October 1, 1997  through  October 31,
         1997, the Partnership  acquired one additional  property for cash, at a
         total cost of  approximately  $1,045,500.  The lease  agreement for the
         property  is  substantially  the  same as the  leases  relating  to the
         Partnership's other properties, as described in Note 2.

ITEM 2.           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                  CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         CNL Income Fund XVIII,  Ltd. (the  "Partnership")  is a Florida limited
partnership that was organized on February 10, 1995, to acquire for cash, either
directly or through  joint  venture  arrangements,  both newly  constructed  and
existing restaurant properties, as well as land upon which restaurants are to be
constructed (the "Properties"),  to be leased primarily to operators of selected
national and  regional  fast-food,  family-style  and casual  dining  restaurant
chains.  The  leases  will be  triple-net  leases,  with  the  lessee  generally
responsible  for all repairs and  maintenance,  property  taxes,  insurance  and
utilities. As of September 30, 1997, the Partnership owned 20 Properties,  three
of which were under construction.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         On September  20, 1996,  the  Partnership  commenced an offering to the
public of up to 3,500,000 units of limited  partnership  interest  pursuant to a
registration  statement  on Form  S-11  under  the  Securities  Act of 1933,  as
amended,  effective  August 11, 1995. As of September 30, 1997, the  Partnership
had sold 2,838,665 units, representing $28,386,647 of capital contributed by the
limited partners.  Based on the general  partners'  experience with 17 prior CNL
Income Fund offerings (each of which sold the entire amount of units offered for
purchase),  the Partnership  anticipates  significant  additional sales of Units
prior to the termination of the offering.  The general  partners have elected to
extend  the  offering  of Units of the  Partnership  until a date no later  than
August 11, 1998.

         As of September  30, 1997,  net  proceeds to the  Partnership  from its
offering of units,  after  deduction of  organizational  and offering  expenses,
totalled $24,781,850. Of this amount, approximately $24,429,400 had been used to
invest or committed for investment in 20  Properties,  three of which were under
construction  at September  30, 1997,  and to pay  acquisition  fees and certain
acquisition  expenses,  leaving  approximately  $352,400  of  offering  proceeds
available  for  investment  in  Properties.   As  of  September  30,  1997,  the
Partnership had incurred  $1,277,399 in acquisition  fees to an affiliate of the
general partners.

         As of  September  30,  1997,  the  Partnership  had entered  into three
development  agreements with tenants which provide terms and  specifications for
the  construction  of  buildings.  The  agreements  provide a maximum  amount of
development  costs  (including the purchase price of the land and closing costs)
to be paid by the  Partnership.  The  aggregate  maximum  development  costs the
Partnership   has  agreed  to  pay  is   approximately   $4,023,600,   of  which
approximately  $2,526,000  in land  and  other  costs  had been  incurred  as of
September  30,  1997.  The  buildings  under  construction  are  expected  to be
operational by March 1998. In connection  with the  acquisition of each of these
Properties, the Partnership entered into a long-term, triple-net lease.

                                       14

<PAGE>



Liquidity and Capital Resources - Continued

         During the  period  October  1, 1997  through  October  31,  1997,  the
Partnership  acquired  one  additional  Property  for cash,  at a total  cost of
approximately $1,045,500.  The lease agreement for the Property is substantially
the same as the leases relating to the Partnership's other Properties.

         As of October 31, 1997, the  Partnership  had sold a total of 3,019,753
units,  for an  aggregate  of  $30,197,528  in gross  offering  proceeds and had
invested or committed for  investment  approximately  $25,556,400  thereof in 21
Properties,  leaving  approximately  $873,400 in net offering proceeds available
for investment in Properties and to pay acquisition fees and certain acquisition
expenses.  As of October 31, 1997, the  Partnership  had incurred  $1,358,889 in
acquisition fees to an affiliate of the general partners.

         The  Partnership   presently  is  negotiating  to  acquire   additional
properties,  but as of October 31, 1997,  had not acquired any such  properties.
The  Partnership  will use the  remaining net offering  proceeds,  together with
proceeds  from the sale of units  subsequent  to October  31,  1997,  to acquire
additional Properties,  to pay acquisition fees and certain acquisition expenses
and to pay expenses  relating to the sale of units.  The number of Properties to
be acquired will depend upon the amount of net offering proceeds (gross proceeds
less fees and expenses of the offering) available to the Partnership.

         None of the Properties owned or to be acquired by the Partnership is or
may be encumbered.  Subject to certain  restrictions on borrowing,  however, the
Partnership  may borrow  funds,  but will not encumber any of the  Properties in
connection with any such borrowing.

         Until  Properties  are  acquired by the  Partnership,  all  Partnership
proceeds are held in  short-term,  highly liquid  investments  which the general
partners  believe  to have  appropriate  safety of  principal.  This  investment
strategy provides high liquidity in order to facilitate the Partnership's use of
these  funds to  acquire  Properties  at such time as  Properties  suitable  for
acquisition  are located.  At September 30, 1997, the Partnership had $3,666,824
invested in such short-term  investments,  as compared to $5,371,325 at December
31,  1996.  The decrease in the amount  invested in  short-term  investments  is
primarily attributable to the acquisition of additional Properties, as described
above,  during the nine months ended  September 30, 1997. The funds remaining at
September 30, 1997,  after the payment of accrued  acquisition and  construction
costs and other  liabilities,  will be used to purchase  and develop  additional
Properties,  to pay limited partner  distributions and to meet the Partnership's
working capital and other needs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources - Continued

         During the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, affiliates of
the  general  partners  incurred  on  behalf  of the  Partnership  $210,866  and
$383,150,  respectively,  for certain  organizational and offering expenses.  In
addition,  during the nine months ended  September  30, 1997,  affiliates of the
general  partners  incurred on behalf of the  Partnership  $125,693  for certain
acquisition expenses and $35,259 for certain operating expenses. As of September
30, 1997, the Partnership owed $75,844 to related parties for such amounts, fees
and other reimbursements. As of October 31, 1997, the Partnership had reimbursed
the affiliates  all such amounts.  Amounts  payable to other parties,  including
distributions  payable,  increased to  $1,499,706  at September  30, 1997,  from
$160,222  at December  31,  1996,  as a result of an  increase in  distributions
payable to limited  partners and costs  incurred with respect to the  Properties
under construction and unpaid at September 30, 1997.

         During the nine  months  ended  September  30,  1997,  the  Partnership
generated  cash from  operations  (which  includes  cash  received from tenants,
interest and other income  received,  less cash paid for  expenses) of $909,568.
Based on cash from  operations,  the Partnership  declared  distributions to the
limited  partners  of  $800,312  for the nine months  ended  September  30, 1997
($379,266  for  the  quarter  ended   September  30,  1997).   This   represents
distributions  of $0.41 per weighted  average  limited partner unit for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 ($0.15 per weighted average limited partner unit
for the quarter ended  September 30, 1997).  No  distributions  were made to the
general  partners for the quarter and nine months ended  September  30, 1997. No
amounts  distributed or to be  distributed to the limited  partners for the nine
months ended  September 30, 1997, are required to be or have been treated by the
Partnership  as a return of capital  for  purposes  of  calculating  the limited
partners'  return  on their  adjusted  capital  contributions.  The  Partnership
intends to continue to make  distributions of cash available for distribution to
the limited partners on a quarterly basis.

         The Partnership's  investment strategy of acquiring Properties for cash
and  leasing  them  under  triple-net  leases to  operators  who meet  specified
financial  standards  is  expected  to  minimize  the  Partnership's   operating
expenses.  Partnership  net income is expected to increase  throughout  1997, as
rental income increases, due to the acquisition of additional Properties and due
to the fact that the Properties  that were under  construction  at September 30,
1997, will be operational.  Accordingly,  the general  partners believe that any
anticipated  decrease  in  the  Partnership's  liquidity  in  1997,  due  to its
investment of available net offering  proceeds in Properties  and the payment of
additional costs relating to the Properties under  construction at September 30,
1997, will not have an adverse effect on the Partnership's operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources - Continued

         Due to anticipated low operating expenses, rental income expected to be
obtained  from  Properties  after  they  are  acquired,  and the  fact  that the
Partnership  will not purchase a Property until sufficient cash is available for
such purchase, the general partners do not believe that working capital reserves
are necessary at this time. In addition,  due to the fact that the leases of the
Partnership's Properties are on a triple-net basis, it is not anticipated that a
permanent  reserve for maintenance and repairs is necessary at this time. To the
extent,  however, that the Partnership has insufficient funds for such purposes,
the general  partners will contribute to the Partnership an aggregate  amount of
up to one percent of the  offering  proceeds  for repairs and  maintenance.  The
general  partners have the right to cause the  Partnership to maintain  reserves
if, in their discretion,  they determine such reserves are necessary to meet the
Partnership's working capital needs.

         The general  partners have the right,  but not the obligation,  to make
additional capital  contributions if they deem it appropriate in connection with
the operations of the Partnership.

Results of Operations

         No significant  operations commenced until the Partnership received and
released from escrow the minimum offering  proceeds of $1,500,000 on October 11,
1996.

         As of September 30, 1997, the  Partnership  had purchased 20 Properties
and entered  into lease  agreements  relating to each of these  Properties.  The
leases of the  Properties  provide  for  minimum  annual  base  rental  payments
(payable  in  monthly   installments)  ranging  from  approximately  $63,200  to
$189,700.  Most of the  leases  provide  for  percentage  rent based on sales in
excess of a specified  amount.  In addition,  some of the leases  provide  that,
commencing in specified lease years (generally the sixth lease year), the annual
base rent required under the terms of the lease will increase.

         During the  quarter and nine  months  ended  September  30,  1997,  the
Partnership  earned $437,927 and $711,461,  respectively,  in rental income from
operating  leases  and  earned  income  from  direct  financing  leases  from 17
Properties which were operational at September 30, 1997. Because the Partnership
did not commence  significant  operations until it received the minimum offering
proceeds on October 11, 1996,  and has not yet  acquired all of its  Properties,
Partnership  revenues for the quarter and nine months ended  September 30, 1997,
represent only a portion of revenues  which the  Partnership is expected to earn
during a full quarter and nine months in which the Partnership's  Properties are
operational.

Results of Operations - Continued

         During the nine months ended  September  30,  1997,  six lessees of the
Partnership,  Golden  Corral  Corporation,  Foodmaker,  Inc.,  Tiffany,  L.L.C.,
Platinum  Rotisserie,  L.L.C., IHOP Properties,  Inc., and Carrols  Corporation,
each contributed more than ten percent of the Partnership's total rental income.
As of September 30, 1997,  Tiffany,  L.L.C.,  Platinum  Rotisserie,  L.L.C., and
Carrols  Corporation  were each lessees under leases relating to one restaurant,
Golden  Corral  Corporation  and IHOP  Properties,  Inc. were each lessees under
leases  relating to two  restaurants  and  Foodmaker,  Inc. was the lessee under
leases relating to four restaurants.  During the nine months ended September 30,
1997,  five  restaurant  chains,  Golden Corral Family  Steakhouse  Restaurants,
Boston Market,  Jack in the Box, IHOP, and Burger King,  each accounted for more
than  ten  percent  of  the  Partnership's  total  rental  income.  Because  the
Partnership  did not  commence  operations  until  October  1996,  and its first
Property was not  purchased  until  December  1996,  the  foregoing  information
regarding  the lessees and  restaurant  chains which  contributed  a significant
amount of the  Partnership's  total rental  income  during the nine months ended
September 30, 1997, may or may not be  representative  of the lessees which will
account for more than ten percent of the Partnership's  rental income during the
remainder  of  1997  and  subsequent  years.  Because  the  Partnership  has not
completed its  acquisition of Properties as yet, it is not possible to determine
which lessees or restaurant  chains will contribute more than ten percent of the
Partnership's  rental income during the remainder of 1997 and subsequent  years.
In the event that certain lessees or restaurant  chains contribute more than ten
percent of the Partnership's  rental income in the current and future years, any
failure  of such  lessees  or  restaurant  chains  could  materially  affect the
Partnership's income.

         During the  quarter and nine  months  ended  September  30,  1997,  the
Partnership also earned $32,728 and $102,034,  respectively,  in interest income
from  investments in money market  accounts or other  short-term,  highly liquid
investments.  As net offering proceeds are invested in additional Properties and
the Properties under construction  become  operational,  the percentage of total
income representing interest income is expected to decrease.

         Operating  expenses,  including  depreciation  and  amortization,  were
$87,845 and $194,483 for the quarter and nine months ended  September  30, 1997,
respectively.  The dollar  amount of operating  expenses is expected to increase
and the amount of general operating and administrative  expenses as a percentage
of  total  revenues  is  expected  to  decrease,  as  the  Partnership  acquires
additional Properties and the Properties under construction become operational.
