July 26, 1995 (the  "Prospectus"),  and the Supplement to Prospectus dated March

STATUS OF SERIES 4 OFFERING

     The Fund is now offering a maximum of 25,000 Units in Series 4 on the terms
set forth  herein and in the  Prospectus.  As of the date  hereof,  Series 4 has
received and accepted subscriptions in the amount of $16,750,450 (16,830 Units),
of which $251,500 currently is represented by Promissory Notes.

LOCAL LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INVESTMENTS

     The  Supplement  dated March 20, 1997  includes a  description  of 10 Local
Limited  Partnership  Interests,  all of which have been acquired as of the date
hereof.  This  Supplement  includes  a  description  of  another  Local  Limited
Partnership  Interest  acquired by Series 4. The  Apartment  Complexes  owned by
these 11 Local Limited Partnerships are located in seven states and are being or
have been developed and constructed by 10 different  development  teams. Each of
the  Apartment  Complexes  has  received a  reservation  of Low  Income  Housing
Credits.  While the Fund Manager believes that Series 4 is reasonably  likely to
retain an interest in each of these Local Limited Partnerships, Series 4 may not
do so as a result of the failure by a Local Limited  Partnership  to satisfy one
or more conditions  precedent to the payment of each  installment  payment,  the
inability  of Series 4 to raise  additional  capital  necessary  to complete the
purchase of the Local Limited Partnership Interests, or other factors. Moreover,
the terms of any  acquisition  may differ from those as described.  Accordingly,
investors  should not rely on the ability of Series 4 to retain an investment in
all these Local Limited  Partnerships on the indicated terms in deciding whether
to invest in Series 4.

     Series 4 has  acquired a Local  Limited  Partnership  Interest in Greyhound
Associates I, L.P., a Missouri limited partnership ("GREYHOUND"). GREYHOUND owns
the Greyhound Apartments in Windsor, Missouri.

is  determined  pursuant to lender  regulations.  The Local  General  Partner is
authorized to employ either itself or one of its  Affiliates,  or a third party,

Apartment Complex, which services include: negotiating the financing commitments
for the  Apartment  Complex;  securing  necessary  approvals and permits for the

distributed  to Series 4 ("WNC") and the Local  General  Partner  ("LGP") of the

that  the  specific  dollar  amounts  which  are to be paid to WNC are not  paid
annually,  they will accrue and be paid from sale or refinancing  proceeds as an
obligation of the Local Limited Partnership.

(4)  Series  4  will  make  its  capital  contributions  to  the  Local  Limited
Partnership  in  stages,  with each  contribution  due when  certain  conditions
regarding  construction  or  operations  of  the  Apartment  Complex  have  been
fulfilled. See "Investment Policies" and "Terms of the Local Limited Partnership

partner.
