PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Development and Description of Business
- ---------------------------------------
Information concerning the business of American Insured Mortgage Investors
(the Partnership) is contained in Part II, Item 7, Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in Notes 1, 4, 5
and 6 of the notes to the financial statements of the Partnership (filed in
response to Item 8 hereof), which is incorporated herein by reference. Also see
Schedule IV-Mortgage Loans on Real Estate for the table of the Insured Mortgages
(as defined below) invested in by the Partnership as of December 31, 1996.

Employees
- ---------
The Partnership has no employees. The business of the Partnership is
managed by CRIIMI, Inc. (the General Partner), while its portfolio of mortgages
is managed by AIM Acquisition Partners, L.P. (the Advisor) pursuant to an
advisory agreement (the Advisory Agreement). CRIIMI, Inc. is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of CRIIMI MAE Inc. (CRIIMI MAE).

The general partner of the Advisor is AIM Acquisition Corporation (AIM
Acquisition) and the limited partners include, but are not limited to, AIM
Acquisition, The Goldman Sachs Group, L.P., Broad, Inc. and CRIIMI MAE.
Effective September 6, 1991 and through June 30, 1995, a sub-advisory agreement
(the Sub-advisory Agreement) existed whereby CRI/AIM Management, Inc., an
affiliate of CRI, Inc., managed the Partnership's portfolio. In connection with
the transaction in which CRIIMI MAE became a self-administered real estate
investment trust (REIT), an affiliate of CRIIMI MAE acquired the Sub-advisory
Agreement. As a consequence of this transaction, effective June 30, 1995,
CRIIMI MAE Services Limited Partnership manages the Partnership's portfolio.
These transactions had no effect on the Partnership's financial statements.

Competition
- -----------
In disposing of mortgage investments, the Partnership competes with private
investors, mortgage banking companies, mortgage brokers, state and local
government agencies, lending institutions, trust funds, pension funds, and other
entities, some with similar objectives to those of the Partnership and some of
which are or may be affiliates of the Partnership, its General Partner, the
Advisor or their respective affiliates. Some of these entities may have
substantially greater capital resources and experience in disposing of Federal
Housing Administration (FHA) insured mortgages than the Partnership.

CRIIMI MAE and its affiliates also may serve as general partners, sponsors
or managers of real estate limited partnerships, REITS or other entities in the
future. The Partnership may attempt to dispose of mortgage investments at or
about the same time that CRIIMI MAE, one or more of the other AIM Partnerships
and/or other entities sponsored or managed by CRIIMI MAE are attempting to
dispose of mortgages. As a result of market conditions that could limit
dispositions, CRIIMI MAE Services Limited Partnership and its affiliates could
be faced with conflicts of interest in determining which mortgages would be
disposed of. Both CRIIMI MAE Services Limited Partnership and CRIIMI, Inc.,
however, are subject to their fiduciary duties in evaluating the appropriate
action to be taken when faced with such conflicts.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

Although the Partnership does not own the underlying real estate, the
mortgages underlying the Partnership's mortgage investments are non-recourse
first liens on the respective multifamily residential developments.

5

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

There are no material legal proceedings to which the Partnership is a
party.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

No matters were submitted to the security holders to be voted on during the
fourth quarter of 1996.

There are no material legal restrictions upon the Partnership's present or
future ability to make distributions in accordance with the provisions of the
Partnership Agreement.

The Partnership's Dividend Reinvestment Plan was amended effective April
10, 1992 to exclude the amount of any special distributions from reinvestment
under the Plan. The regular distributions will continue to be automatically
reinvested in additional Units as in the past.

PART II

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General
- -------
American Insured Mortgage Investors (the Partnership) was formed under the
Uniform Limited Partnership Act in the state of California on July 12, 1983.
During the period from March 1, 1984 (the initial closing date of the
Partnership's public offering) through December 31, 1984, the Partnership,
pursuant to its public offering of 10,000,000 depositary units of limited
partnership interest (Units), raised a total of $200,000,000 in gross proceeds.
In addition, the initial limited partner contributed $2,500 to the capital of
the Partnership and received 125 Units of limited partnership interest in
exchange therefor.

CRIIMI, Inc. (the General Partner) holds a partnership interest of 2.9%.
CRIIMI, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of CRIIMI MAE Inc. (CRIIMI MAE).
Prior to June 30, 1995, CRIIMI MAE was managed by an advisor whose general
partner is C.R.I., Inc. (CRI). However, effective June 30, 1995, CRIIMI MAE
became a self-administered real estate investment trust (REIT) and, as a result,
the advisor no longer advises CRIIMI MAE.

AIM Acquisition Partners L.P. (the Advisor) serves as the advisor to the
Partnership. The general partner of the Advisor is AIM Acquisition Corporation
(AIM Acquisition) and the limited partners include, but are not limited to, AIM
Acquisition, The Goldman Sachs Group, L.P., Broad, Inc. and CRIIMI MAE.
Pursuant to the terms of certain amendments to the Partnership agreement, the
General Partner is required to receive the consent of the Advisor prior to
taking certain significant actions which effect the management and policies of
the Partnership.

Effective September 6, 1991 and through June 30, 1995, a sub-advisory
agreement(the Sub-advisory Agreement) existed whereby CRI/AIM Management, Inc.,
an affiliate of CRI, Inc. managed the Partnership's portfolio. In connection
with the transaction in which CRIIMI MAE became a self-administered REIT, an
affiliate of CRIIMI MAE acquired the Sub-advisory Agreement. As a consequence
of this transaction, effective June 30, 1995, CRIIMI MAE Services Limited
Partnership, an affiliate of CRIIMI MAE, manages the Partnership's portfolio.
These transactions had no effect on the Partnership's financial statements.

Prior to the expiration of the Partnership's reinvestment period in
November 1988, the Partnership was engaged in the business of originating
mortgage loans (Originated Insured Mortgages) and acquiring mortgage loans
(Acquired Insured Mortgages and, together with Originated Insured Mortgages,
referred to herein as Insured Mortgages). In accordance with the terms of the
Partnership Agreement, the Partnership is no longer authorized to originate or
acquire Insured Mortgages and, consequently, its primary objective is to manage
its portfolio of mortgage investments, all of which are insured under Section
221(d)(4) or Section 231 of the National Housing Act. The Partnership Agreement
states that the Partnership will terminate on December 31, 2008, unless
previously terminated under the provisions of the Partnership Agreement.

The Partnership's investment in Insured Mortgages consists of participation
certificates evidencing a 100% undivided beneficial interest in government
insured multifamily mortgages issued or sold pursuant to Federal Housing
Administration (FHA) programs (FHA-Insured Certificates) and FHA-insured
mortgage loans (FHA-Insured Loans). The mortgages underlying the FHA-Insured
Certificates and FHA-Insured Loans are non-recourse first liens on multifamily
residential developments.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Continued


Investment in FHA-Insured Loans
- --------------------------------
Listed below is the Partnership's aggregate investment in FHA-Insured Loans
as of December 31, 1996 and 1995:


December 31,
1996 1995
------------ ------------

Number of
Acquired Insured Mortgages 4 4
Originated Insured Mortgages 2 2
Amortized Cost $ 23,262,738 $ 23,589,611
Face Value 26,338,828 26,573,553
Fair Value 26,801,846 27,625,663



All of the FHA-Insured Loans were current with respect to the payment of
principal and interest as of March 1, 1997. In addition to base interest
payments received from Originated Insured Mortgages, the Partnership is entitled
to additional interest based on a percentage of the net cash flow from the
underlying development and of the net proceeds from the refinancing, sale or
other disposition of the underlying development (referred to as Participations).
During the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the Partnership
received $12,158, $39,465 and $13,010, respectively, from the Participations.
These amounts are included in mortgage investment income on the accompanying
statements of operations.

Investment in FHA-Insured Certificates
- --------------------------------------
Listed below is the Partnership's aggregate investment in FHA-Insured
Certificates as of December 31, 1996 and 1995:


December 31,
1996 1995
------------ ------------

Number of mortgages 9 9
Amortized Cost $ 11,321,727 $ 11,418,898
Face Value 13,843,564 14,023,399
Fair Value 14,105,760 14,774,772



All of the FHA-Insured Certificates were current with respect to the
payment of principal and interest as of March 1, 1997.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

1996 versus 1995
- ----------------
Net earnings decreased for 1996 as compared to 1995 primarily due to the
mortgage modification of Creekside Village, as discussed below. No mortgages
were disposed of or modified during 1995. Partially offsetting the reduction in

11

PART II

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Continued


income was a decrease in general and administrative expenses, as discussed
below.

Interest and other income did not significantly change for 1996 as compared
to 1995.

Asset management fees remained unchanged for 1996 as compared to 1995.

General and administrative expenses decreased for 1996 as compared to 1995.
The decrease is primarily due to a reduction in investor relations expenses
resulting from a decrease in the number of registered unitholders.

In May 1996, the mortgage note on Creekside Village was amended to reduce
the mortgage interest rate from 11.5% (with no lockout provision) to 7.75%,
(which includes a lockout provision and prepayment penalty). In connection with
this modification, the Partnership recognized a loss of $146,464 on the
accompanying statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 1996,
primarily representing the unamortized balance of acquisition and closing costs
paid in connection with the origination of this mortgage.

1995 versus 1994
- ----------------
Net earnings decreased for 1995 as compared to 1994 primarily due to the
gain recognized on the disposition of the mortgage on Hidden Oaks Apartments
during 1994. No mortgages were disposed of during 1995. Also contributing to
the decrease in net earnings was the reduction in mortgage investment income as
a result of this disposition.

Interest and other income decreased for 1995 as compared to 1994. During
1994, interest and other income included interest income from the short-term
investment of disposition proceeds received during February 1994 prior to the
distribution to Unitholders in May 1994.

Asset management fees decreased for 1995 as compared to 1994 as a result of
the reduction in the mortgage base.

General and administrative expenses decreased for 1995 as compared to 1994
due a reduction in investor services expenses and annual and quarterly reporting
expenses resulting from a reduction of the number of Unitholders. In addition,
there was a decrease in non-recurring expenses incurred in 1994.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The Partnership's operating cash receipts, derived from payments of
principal and interest on Insured Mortgages, plus cash receipts from interest on
short-term investments, were sufficient for the year ended December 31, 1996 to
meet operating requirements.

The basis for paying distributions to Unitholders is net proceeds from
mortgage dispositions, if any, and cash flow from operations, which includes
regular interest income and principal from Insured Mortgages. Although Insured
Mortgages yield a fixed monthly mortgage payment once purchased, the cash
distributions paid to the Unitholders will vary during each period due to (1)
the fluctuating yields in the short-term money market where the monthly mortgage
payment receipts are temporarily invested prior to the payment of quarterly
distributions, (2) the reduction in the asset base resulting from monthly
mortgage payments received or mortgage dispositions, (3) variations in the cash

12

PART II

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Continued


flow attributable to the delinquency or default of Insured Mortgages and (4)
changes in the Partnership's operating expenses.

Since the Partnership is obligated to distribute the Proceeds of Mortgage
Prepayments, Sales and Insurance of Insured Mortgages (as defined in the
Partnership Agreement) to its Unitholders, the size of the Partnership's
portfolio will continue to decrease. The magnitude of the decrease will depend
upon the size of the Insured Mortgages which are prepaid, sold or assigned for
insurance proceeds.

Cash Flow - 1996 versus 1995
- ----------------------------
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased for 1996 as compared to
1995 primarily due to a reduction in mortgage investment income, as discussed
above.

Net cash provided by investing activities increased for 1996 as compared to
1995 primarily due to receipt of mortgage principal from scheduled payments
increased as a result of the modification of the mortgage on Creekside Village,
as discussed above, and due to the normal amortization of the mortgage base.

Net cash used in financing activities decreased for 1996 as compared to
1995 primarily due to the decrease in the third quarter 1996 distribution as a
result of the modification of the mortgage on Creekside Village, as discussed
above.

Cash flow - 1995 versus 1994
- ----------------------------
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased for 1995 as compared to
1994 primarily due to a reduction in mortgage investment income and interest and
other income, as discussed above. Also contributing to the decrease was a
reduction in receivables and other assets in 1994 in connection with the receipt
of accrued but unpaid interest related to the mortgage on Creekside Village.

Net cash provided by investing activities decreased for 1995 as compared to
1994 as a result to the receipt in February 1994 of net proceeds of
approximately $8.1 million from the prepayment of the mortgage on Hidden Oaks
Apartments.

Net cash used in financing activities decreased for 1995 as compared to
1994 primarily due to the first and second quarter 1994 special distributions
paid to the Unitholders, resulting from the prepayment of the mortgage on Hidden
Oaks Apartments and from the proceeds received in 1993 from the sale of the
defaulted mortgages on Chapelgate Apartments and Cumberland Village.

PART III

ITEM 10. DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT

(a), (b), (c) and (e)

The Partnership has no officers or directors. CRIIMI, Inc. (the General
Partner) holds a Partnership interest of 2.9%. The affairs of the Partnership
are generally managed by the General Partner, which is wholly owned by CRIIMI
MAE, a company whose shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Prior to
June 30, 1995, CRIIMI MAE was managed by an advisor whose general partner was
CRI, Inc. However, effective June 30, 1995, CRIIMI MAE became a self-
administered REIT and, as a result, such advisor no longer advises CRIIMI MAE.

AIM Acquisition Partner L.P., (The Advisor) serves as the advisor to the
Partnership. AIM Acquisition is the general partner of the Advisor and the
limited partners include, but are not limited to, AIM Acquisition, The Goldman
Sachs Group, L.P., Broad, Inc. and CRIIMI MAE. Pursuant to the terms of certain
amendments to the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner is required to
receive the consent of the Advisor prior to taking certain significant actions
which affect the management and policies of the Partnership. Effective
September 6, 1991 and through June 30, 1995, a sub-advisory agreement (the Sub-
advisory Agreement) existed whereby CRI/AIM Management, Inc., an affiliate of
CRI, managed the Partnership's portfolio. In connection with the transaction in
which CRIIMI MAE became a self-administered REIT, an affiliate of CRIIMI MAE
acquired the Sub-advisory Agreement. As a consequence of this transaction,
effective June 30, 1995, CRIIMI MAE Services Limited Partnership, an affiliate
of CRIIMI MAE, manages the Partnership's portfolio. These transactions had no
effect on the Partnership's financial statements.

The General Partner is also the general partner of AIM 85, AIM 86 and AIM
88, limited partnerships with investment objectives similar to those of the
Partnership.

(d) There is no family relationship between any of the officers and
directors of the General Partner.

(f) Involvement in certain legal proceedings.

None.

(g) Promoters and control persons.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Partners of
American Insured Mortgage Investors:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of American Insured
Mortgage Investors (the Partnership) as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the
related statements of operations, changes in partners' equity and cash flows for
the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994. These financial statements and
the schedule referred to below are the responsibility of the Partnership's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of the Partnership as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

As explained in Note 2 of the notes to the financial statements, effective
January 1, 1994, the Partnership changed its method of accounting for its
investment in insured mortgages.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. Schedule IV-Mortgage Loans on Real
Estate as of December 31, 1996 and for the year then ended is presented for
purposes of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and
regulations and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. The
information in this schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures
applied in our audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is
fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole.

AMERICAN INSURED MORTGAGE INVESTORS

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. ORGANIZATION

American Insured Mortgage Investors (the Partnership) was formed under the
Uniform Limited Partnership Act in the state of California on July 12, 1983.

CRIIMI, Inc. (the General Partner) holds a partnership interest of 2.9%.
CRIIMI, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of CRIIMI MAE Inc. (CRIIMI MAE).
Prior to June 30, 1995, CRIIMI MAE was managed by an advisor whose general
partner is CRI, Inc. (CRI). However, effective June 30, 1995, CRIIMI MAE became
a self-administered real estate investment trust (REIT) and, as a result, the
advisor no longer advises CRIIMI MAE.

AIM Acquisition Partners L.P. (the Advisor) serves as the advisor to the
Partnership. The general partner of the Advisor is AIM Acquisition Corporation
(AIM Acquisition) and the limited partners include, but are not limited to, AIM
Acquisition, The Goldman Sachs Group, L.P., Broad, Inc. and CRIIMI MAE.
Pursuant to the terms of certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement, the
General Partner is required to receive the consent of the Advisor prior to
taking certain significant actions which affect the management and policies of
the Partnership.

Effective September 6, 1991 and through June 30, 1995, a sub-advisory
agreement (the Sub-advisory Agreement) existed whereby CRI/AIM Management, Inc.,
an affiliate of CRI, Inc., managed the Partnership's portfolio. In connection
with the transaction in which CRIIMI MAE became a self-administered REIT, an
affiliate of CRIIMI MAE acquired the Sub-advisory Agreement. As a consequence
of this transaction, effective June 30, 1995, CRIIMI MAE Services Limited
Partnership, an affiliate of CRIIMI MAE, manages the Partnership's portfolio.
These transactions had no effect on the Partnership's financial statements.

Prior to the expiration of the Partnership's reinvestment period in
November 1988, the Partnership was engaged in the business of originating
mortgage loans (Originated Insured Mortgages) and acquiring mortgage loans
(Acquired Insured Mortgages and, together with Originated Insured Mortgages,
referred to herein as Insured Mortgages). In accordance with the terms of the
Partnership Agreement, the Partnership is no longer authorized to originate or
acquire Insured Mortgages and, consequently, its primary objective is to manage
its portfolio of mortgage investments, all of which are insured under Section
221(d)(4) or Section 231 of the National Housing Act. The Partnership Agreement
states that the Partnership will terminate on December 31, 2008, unless
previously terminated under the provisions of the Partnership Agreement.

AMERICAN INSURED MORTGAGE INVESTORS

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Method of Accounting
--------------------
The Partnership's financial statements are prepared on the accrual
basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

Investment in Insured Mortgages
-------------------------------

The Partnership's investment in Insured Mortgages is comprised of
participation certificates evidencing a 100% undivided beneficial interest
in government insured multifamily mortgages issued or sold pursuant to
programs of the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) (FHA-Insured
Certificates) and FHA-insured mortgage loans (FHA-Insured Loans). The
mortgages underlying the FHA-Insured Certificates and FHA-Insured Loans are
non-recourse first liens on multifamily residential developments.

Payment of principal and interest on FHA-Insured Certificates and FHA-
Insured Loans is insured by the United States Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD) pursuant to Title 2 of the National Housing Act.

Prior to January 1, 1994, the Partnership accounted for its investment
in Insured Mortgages at amortized cost in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 65 "Accounting for Certain Mortgage
Banking Activities" (SFAS 65) since it had the ability and intent to hold
these assets for the foreseeable future. The difference between the cost
and the unpaid principal balance at the time of purchase is carried as a
discount or premium and amortized over the remaining contractual life of
the mortgage using the effective interest method. The effective interest
method provides a constant yield of income over the term of the mortgage.
Mortgage investment income is comprised of amortization of the discount
plus the stated mortgage interest payments received or accrued less
amortization of the premium.

In May 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115 "Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" (SFAS 115). This statement
requires that investments in debt and equity securities be classified into
one of the following investment categories based upon the circumstances
under which such securities might be sold: Held to Maturity, Available for
Sale, and Trading. Generally, certain debt securities for which an
enterprise has both the ability and intent to hold to maturity, should be
accounted for using the amortized cost method and all other securities must
be recorded at their fair values.

As of December 31, 1996, the weighted average remaining term of the
Partnership's investments in FHA-Insured Certificates is approximately 25
years. However, the Partnership Agreement states that the Partnership will
terminate in approximately 12 years, on December 31, 2008, unless
previously terminated under the provisions of the Partnership Agreement.
As the Partnership is anticipated to terminate prior to the weighted
average remaining term of its FHA-Insured Certificates, the Partnership
does not have the ability, at this time, to hold these investments to

27

AMERICAN INSURED MORTGAGE INVESTORS

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

maturity. Consequently, the General Partner believes that the
Partnership's FHA-Insured Certificates should be included in the Available
for Sale category. Although the Partnership's FHA-Insured Certificates are
classified as Available for Sale for financial statement purposes, the
General Partner does not intend to voluntarily sell these assets other than
those which may be sold as a result of a default or those which are
eligible to be put to FHA at the expiration of 20 years from the date of
the final endorsement.

In connection with this classification, as of December 31, 1996 and
1995, all of the Partnership's investments in FHA-Insured Certificates are
recorded at fair value, with the net unrealized gains on these investments
reported as a separate component of partners' equity. Subsequent increases
or decreases in the fair value of FHA-Insured Certificates classified as
Available for Sale will be included as a separate component of partners'
equity. Realized gains and losses on FHA-Insured Certificates classified
as Available for Sale will continue to be reported in earnings. The
amortized cost of the investments in this category is adjusted for
amortization of discounts to maturity. Such amortization is included in
mortgage investment income.

Gains from dispositions of mortgage investments are recognized upon
the receipt of cash or debentures.

Losses on dispositions of mortgage investments are recognized when it
becomes probable that a mortgage will be disposed of and that the
disposition will result in a loss. In the case of Originated Insured
Mortgages fully insured by HUD, the Partnership's maximum exposure for
purposes of determining the loan losses would generally be an assignment
fee charged by HUD representing approximately 1% of the unpaid principal
balance of the Originated Insured Mortgage at the date of default, plus the
unamortized balance of acquisition fees and closing costs paid in
connection with the acquisition of the Originated Insured Mortgage and the
loss of 30 days accrued interest.

Since Acquired Insured Mortgages were purchased at a discount from the
unpaid principal balance of the mortgage, the Partnership's investment in
the Acquired Insured Mortgages is less than the amount that would be
recovered from HUD in the event of a default. Therefore, the Partnership
would experience no loan losses on discounted Acquired Insured Mortgages in
the case of a default.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
-------------------------
Cash and cash equivalents consist of time and demand deposits with
original maturities of three months or less.

Income Taxes
------------
No provision has been made for Federal, state or local income taxes in
the accompanying financial statements since they are the personal
responsibility of the Unitholders.

Reclassification
----------------
Certain amounts in the financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 1994 have been reclassified to conform with the 1995 and 1996
presentation.

3. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The following estimated fair values of the Partnership's financial
instruments are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles which define fair value as the amount at which a financial instrument
could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than
in a forced or liquidation sale. These estimated fair values, however, do not
represent the liquidation value or the market value of the Partnership.

(1) This includes a special distribution of $0.81 per Unit comprised of: (i)
$0.80 per Unit return of capital and capital gain from the disposition of
the Insured mortgage on Hidden Oaks Apartments and (ii) $0.01 per Unit of
previously accrued but undistributed interest received from the Insured
mortgage on Creekside Village.

The basis for paying distributions to Unitholders is net proceeds from
mortgage dispositions, if any, and cash flow from operations, which includes
regular interest income and principal from Insured Mortgages. Although Insured
Mortgages yield a fixed monthly mortgage payment once purchased, the cash

distributions paid to the Unitholders will vary during each year due to (1) the
fluctuating yields in the short-term money market where the monthly mortgage
payment receipts are temporarily invested prior to the payment of quarterly
distributions, (2) the reduction in the asset base resulting from monthly
mortgage payments received or mortgage dispositions, (3) variations in the cash
flow attributable to the delinquency or default of Insured Mortgages and (4)
changes in the Partnership's operating expenses.

8. PARTNERS' EQUITY

Depositary Units representing economic rights in limited partnership
interests (Units) were issued at a stated value of $20. A total of 10,000,000
Units were issued for an aggregate capital contribution of $200,000,000. In
addition, the initial limited partner contributed $2,500 to the capital of the
Partnership and received 125 Units in exchange therefor.

NOTES TO SCHEDULE IV - MORTGAGE LOANS ON REAL ESTATE

(1) Under the Section 221 program of the National Housing Act of 1937, as
amended, a mortgagee has the right to assign a mortgage ("put") to FHA at
the expiration of 20 years from the date of final endorsement if the
mortgage is not in default at such time. Any mortgagee electing to assign
an FHA-insured mortgage to FHA will receive, in exchange therefor, HUD
debentures having a total face value equal to the then outstanding
principal balance of the FHA-insured mortgage plus accrued interest to the
date of assignment. These HUD debentures will mature 10 years from the date
of assignment and will bear interest at the "going Federal rate" at such
date. This assignment procedure is applicable to an insured mortgage which
had a firm or conditional FHA commitment for insurance on or before
November 30, 1983. The Partnership anticipates that each eligible insured
mortgage, for which a prepayment has not occurred and which has not been
sold, will be assigned to FHA at the expiration of 20 years from the date
of final endorsement. The Partnership, therefore, does not anticipate
holding any eligible insured mortgage beyond the expiration of 20 years
from final endorsement of that insured mortgage.

(2) Inclusive of closing costs and acquisition fees.

(3) Prepayment of these insured mortgages would be based upon the unpaid
principal balance at the time of prepayment.

(4) These amounts represent the Partnership's 50% interest in these insured
mortgages. The remaining 50% interest was acquired by AIM 85.

(5) In addition, the servicer of the insured mortgages (primarily unaffiliated
third parties) is entitled to receive compensation for certain services
rendered in an amount up to ten basis points (.10%) of the unpaid principal
balance of the insured mortgages.

(6) This represents the base interest rate during the permanent phase of these
insured mortgage loans. Additional interest, (referred to as
Participations) measured as a percentage of surplus cash and a percentage
of the proceeds from sale or refinancing of the development (as defined in
the Participation Agreements), will also be due. The Partnership received
$12,158, $39,465 and $13,010 from the Participations for the years ended
December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

(7) The mortgages underlying the Partnership's investment in FHA-Insured
Certificates and FHA-Insured Loans are non-recourse first liens on
multifamily residential developments.

(8) Principal and interest are payable at level amounts over the life of the
Insured Mortgages.
