Item 2. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

THIRD QUARTER 2003 COMPARED TO THIRD QUARTER 2002

At September 30, 2003 the Partnership owned two properties with
approximately 416,623 net rentable square feet. Both properties
are apartment communities. The portfolio had an average
occupancy of 90.9% for the third quarter of 2003, as compared to
88.3% for the third quarter of 2002.

Revenue from property operations decreased $26,423, or 3.83%, for
the third quarter of 2003, as compared to the 2002 third quarter.
The decrease in rental income of $25,818 or 3.83% is primarily
due to a decrease in rental rates. The decrease in other income
of $605 or 3.51% is primarily due to an decrease in Late and
other fee collections from the properties. The following table
illustrates the components:

Three Month
Increase Percent
(Decrease) Change

Rental income (25,818) 3.83%
Other property (605) 3.51%
Net Increase (26,423) 3.83%
(Decrease)

Property operating expenses decreased $19,737 or 2.44%, for the
third quarter of 2003, as compared to the same period in 2002.
Maintenance & repairs decreased $31,904 or 35.04% due to reduced
property exterior construction projects. Insurance increased
$8,230 or 34.74% in connection with the annual policy renewal.
The increase in general & administrative is due to increased
professional fees and banks charges. The following table
illustrates the components by category:

Increase Percent

Salaries & wages 2,725 2.84%
Maintenance & repairs (31,904) 35.04%

(Decrease)

THIRD QUARTER 2002 COMPARED TO THIRD QUARTER 2001

At September 30, 2002 the Partnership owned two properties with
approximately 416,623 net rentable square feet. Both properties
are apartment communities. The portfolio had an average
occupancy of 88.3% for the third quarter of 2002, as compared to
96.5% for the third quarter of 2001.

Revenue from property operations decreased $38,648, or 5.30%, for
the third quarter of 2002, as compared to the 2001 third quarter.
The decrease in rental income of $33,718 or 4.77% is primarily
due to an increase in vacancy. The decrease in other income of
$4,930 or 22.22% is primarily due to an decrease in Late and
other fee collections from the properties. The following table
illustrates the components:

Increase Percent
(Decrease) Change

Rental income (33,718) 4.77%
Other property (4,930) 22.22%
Net Increase (38,648) 5.30%
(Decrease)

Property operating expenses increased $39,235 or 5.11%, for the
third quarter of 2002, as compared to the same period in 2001,
primarily due to increases in maintenance & repair expense. The
increase in maintenance & repairs expense of $30,999 or 51.61% is
associated with turnover and other make ready costs. Insurance
increased $8,600 or 56.99% in connection with the annual policy
renewal. Salaries increased $9,934 or 11.53% primarily due to
increased on site maintenance. The following table illustrates
the components by category:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

While it is the General Partners primary intention to
operate and manage the existing real estate investments, the
General Partner also continually evaluates this investment in
light of current economic conditions and trends to determine if
this asset should be considered for disposal. At this time, there
is no plan to dispose of either property.

As of September 30, 2003, the Partnership had $267,621 in
cash and cash equivalents as compared to $214,237 as of December
31, 2002. The net increase in cash of $53,384 is principally due
to cash flow from operations.

On September 30, 2002 the partnership distributed $25.00 per
limited partnership unit to units of record September 30, 2002.
This distribution was made from excess cash on hand from cash
flow from operations.

Each asset of the fund refinanced its debt during July 1997.
The fund retired debt with a face value of $6,500,000 and
replaced with debt of $10,800,000. The new mortgages in the
amounts of $4,000,000, $6,800,000 carry interest rates of 7.8%
and 7.92% respectively. The notes come due August, 2007. The
Partnerships required principal payments due under the stated
terms of the Partnerships mortgage notes payable are $140,551
$152,028, and $164,442 for each of the next three years.

For the foreseeable future, the Partnership anticipates that
mortgage principal payments (excluding any balloon mortgage
payments), improvements and capital expenditures will be funded
by net cash from operations. The primary source of capital to
fund future Partnership acquisitions and balloon mortgage
payments will be proceeds from the sale, financing or
refinancing of the Properties.
