PART I

This Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
section 27a of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21e of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. Actual results could differ materially from those
projected in the forward looking statements as a result of a number of
factors, including those identified herein.


ITEM 1. BUSINESS

On December 20, 1985, The Krupp Corporation and The Krupp Company
Limited Partnership-IV (the "General Partners") formed Krupp Insured Plus
Limited Partnership (the "Partnership"), a Massachusetts Limited
Partnership. The Partnership raised approximately $149 million through a
public offering of limited partner interests evidenced by units of
depositary receipts ("Units") and used the net proceeds primarily to
acquire participating insured mortgages ("PIMs") and mortgage backed
securities ("MBS"). The Partnership considers itself to be engaged in the
industry segment of investment in mortgages.

The Partnership's investments in PIMs consist of a securitized multi-
family first mortgage loan or a sole participation interest in a Department
of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") multi-family insured first
mortgage loan, and participation interests in the current revenue stream of
the mortgaged property and any increase in the mortgaged property's value
above certain specified base levels. The Partnership provided the funds
for the first mortgage loan made to the borrower by acquiring either a
securitized first mortgage loan ("MBS"), originated under the lending
programs of the Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA") or
Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA"), or a sole participation
interest in a first mortgage loan originated under the Federal Housing
Administration ("FHA") lending program (collectively the "insured
mortgages"). The Partnership receives the participation interests in the
mortgaged property as additional consideration for providing the funds for
the first mortgage loan and accepting a below market interest rate on the
insured mortgage. The borrower conveyed the participation interests to the
Partnership through either a subordinated promissory note and mortgage or a
shared income and appreciation agreement. FNMA guarantees the principal
and interest payments for the FNMA MBS and GNMA guarantees the timely
payment of principal and interest for the GNMA MBS. HUD insures the first
mortgage loan underlying the GNMA MBS and any first mortgage loan
originated under the FHA lending program. The participation interests
conveyed to the Partnership by the borrower are neither insured nor
guaranteed.

The Partnership also acquired MBS backed by single-family or multi-
family mortgage loans issued or originated by GNMA, FNMA or the Federal
Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC"). FNMA and FHLMC guarantee the
principal and basic interest of these FNMA and FHLMC MBS, respectively.
GNMA guarantees the timely payment of principal and interest of GNMA MBS,
and HUD insures the pooled first mortgage loans underlying the GNMA MBS.

Although the Partnership will terminate no later than December 31, 2025
the Partnership anticipates realizing the value of the PIMs through
repayment well before this date. Therefore, dissolution of the Partnership
should occur significantly prior to December 31, 2025, the stated
termination date of the Partnership.

The Partnership's investments are not subject to seasonal fluctuations.
However, the realization of the participation features of the PIMs are
subject to similar risks associated with equity real estate investments,
including: reliance on the owner's operating skills, ability to maintain
occupancy levels, control operating expenses, maintain the property and
provide adequate insurance coverage; adverse changes in general economic
conditions, adverse local conditions, and changes in governmental
regulations, real estate zoning laws, or tax laws; and other circumstances
over which the Partnership may have little or no control.

The requirements for compliance with federal, state and local
regulations to date have not adversely effected the Partnership's
operations and the Partnership does not presently anticipate adverse
effects in the future.

As of December 31, 1997, there were no personnel directly employed by
the Partnership.



ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

None.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

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

None.

PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCK-
HOLDER MATTERS

There currently is no established trading market for the Units.

The number of investors holding Units as of December 31, 1997 was
approximately 6,820. One of the objectives of the Partnership is to provide
quarterly distributions of cash flow generated by its investments in
mortgages. The Partnership presently anticipates that future operations
will continue to generate cash available for distribution. Adjustments may
be made to the distribution rate in the future due to the realization and
payout of the existing mortgages.

During 1997 and 1996, the Partnership made special distributions
consisting primarily of principal proceeds from the Pine Hills PIM and
Mandalay PIM prepayments, respectively. The Partnership may make special
distributions in the future if PIMs prepay or a sufficient amount if cash
is available from MBS and PIM principal collections.

The Partnership made the following distributions, in quarterly
installments, and special distributions, to its Partners during the two
years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996:




1997 1996
Amount Per Unit Amount Per Unit


Distributions:

Liquidity and Capital Resources


The most significant demands on the Partnership's liquidity are regular
quarterly distributions of approximately $1.4 million paid to investors.
Funds used for investor distributions come from (i)interest received on the
PIMs, MBS, cash and cash equivalents, (ii) the principal collections
received on the PIMs and MBS and (iii) cash reserves. The portion of the
distribution funded from principal collections and cash reserves causes the
capital resources of the Partnership to continually decrease. As a result
of this decrease, the total cash inflows to the Partnership also will
decrease resulting in periodic downward adjustments to the quarterly
distributions paid to investors.



During the fourth quarter of 1997, the Partnership received a repayment
of the Pine Hills Apartments PIM. The Partnership received the outstanding
principal balance of approximately $4.5 million, Shared Appreciation
Interest of $252,000 and participation income of $290,390. The Partnership
made a special distribution during December 1997 to the investors in the
amount of $.61 per limited partner interest with these proceeds. The
Partnership will continue to pay the current distribution rate for the near
future.

In November 1996, the underlying borrower of the Mandalay Apartments PIM
prepaid the insured mortgage and paid a portion of the accumulated
participation income. Following the prepayment, the Partnership made a
special distribution of $2.20 per Unit to investors.

The General Partners do not expect any other PIMs still held in the
Partnership's portfolio to be repaid during 1998. Two of the properties,
Royal Palm Place and Vista Montana, continue to operate under long-term
restructure programs. The mediocre operating performances of the two
remaining properties, Greentree and La Costa, have not generated sufficient
increases in property values to provide an incentive for the owners to
pursue either a sale or refinancing of those properties. Both Greentree
and La Costa are older properties with physical shortcomings that affect
rental income potential and increase the cost of operations. Consequently,
neither property generates any participation interest to the Partnership
from operating cash flow.

The General Partners periodically review the distribution rate to
determine whether an adjustment to the distribution rate is necessary based
on projected future cash flows. In general, the General Partners try to
set a distribution rate that provides for level quarterly distributions of
cash available for distribution. To the extent quarterly distributions
differ from cash available for distribution, the General Partners may
adjust the distribution rate.

In the event of a sale or refinancing of the remaining PIMs, the
Partnership will distribute the proceeds to investors as a special
distribution and adjust the distribution rate as necessary to reflect the
anticipated cash inflows from the remaining mortgage investments.

For the first five years of the PIMs the borrowers were prohibited from
prepaying the insured mortgage loan. For the second five years, the
borrower can prepay the insured mortgage by incurring a prepayment penalty.
The Partnership has the option to call certain PIMs by accelerating their
maturity if the loans are not prepaid by the end of the tenth year after
permanent funding. The Partnership will determine the merits of exercising
the call option for each PIM as economic conditions warrant. Such factors
as the condition of the asset, local market conditions, interest rates and
available financing will have an impact on this decision.

Assessment of Credit Risk

The Partnership's investments in mortgages are guaranteed or insured by
the FNMA, GNMA, FHLMC, HUD and therefore the certainty of their cash flows
and the risk of material loss of the amounts invested depends on the
creditworthiness of these entities.

FNMA is a federally chartered private corporation that guarantees
obligations originated under its programs. FHLMC is a federally chartered
corporation that guarantees obligations originated under its programs and
is wholly-owned by the twelve Federal Home Loan Banks. These obligations
are not guaranteed by the U.S. Government or the Federal Home Loan Bank
Board. GNMA guarantees the full and timely payment of principal and basic
interest on the securities it issues, which represents interest in pooled
mortgages insured by HUD. Obligations insured by HUD, an agency of the
U.S. Government,are backed bythe full faithand creditof the U.S.Government.

Operations

The following discussion relates to the operation of the Partnership during
the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995.
(Amounts in thousands)
1997 1996 1995

Interest income on PIMs:
Base interest $ 3,137 $ 4,644 $ 4,471
Participation interest income 543 114 -
Interest income on MBS 2,181 2,315 2,473
Other interest income 218 143 153
Partnership expenses (722) (791) (891)
Amortization of prepaid fees
and expenses (613) (1,096) (958)

Net income $ 4,744 $ 5,329 $ 5,248

Net income decreased in 1997 as compared to 1996 due primarily to a
decrease in interest income on PIMs which were somewhat offset by a
decrease in amortization expense. Base interest income on PIMs decreased
in 1997 as compared to 1996 as a result of a reduction in the invested
assets in the Partnership. The reduction in assets was a result of
repayments of the Pine Hills PIM in November of 1997 and the Mandalay
Apartments PIM in November of 1996. Subsequently, special distributions
were made from the Partnership using the payoff proceeds. Interest income
on MBS declined approximately $134,000 due to principal collections
reducing the outstanding MBS portfolio. Interest income on MBS and base
interest income on PIMs will continue to decline as principal collections
reduce the outstanding balance of these investments. As the Partnership
distributes principal collections on MBS and PIMs through quarterly or
special distributions, the invested assets of the Partnership will decline
which should result in a continuing decline in interest income.
Amortization expense decreased in 1997 as compared to 1996 due to the full
amortization of prepaid expenses relating to the Mandalay Apartments PIM
in 1996 exceeded the amortization of prepaid expenses relating to the Pine
Hills PIM prepayment in 1997. Partnership expenses decreased approximately
$69,000 in 1997 versus 1996 mainly as result of lower asset management
fees caused by a declining asset base.

Net income increased slightly in 1996 as compared to 1995 due
primarily to an increase in interest income on PIMs and lower Partnership
expenses which were offset by lower interest income on MBS and an increase
in amortization expense. Base interest income on PIMs increased in 1996
as compared to 1995 as a result of fully amortizing the remaining
unamortized discount on the Mandalay Apartments PIM of approximately
$411,000 upon its prepayment in November 1996, net of a decrease in base
interest income of approximately $100,000 resulting from the prepayment, a
decrease of approximately $83,000 resulting from the modification of the
Royal Palm Apartments PIM, and a decrease resulting from the scheduled
amortization of the underlying mortgages. In 1995, the Royal Palm
Apartments PIM was modified and the interest rate on the FNMA MBS was
reduced from 7.75% to 6.25% per annum. The Partnership saw an increase in
participation interest income of approximately $114,000 in 1996 versus
1995 due to participation interest income received from the prepayment of
the Mandalay





Apartments PIM. In the same period interest income on MBS declined
approximately $158,000 due to principal collections reducing the
outstanding MBS portfolio. Amortization expense increased in 1996 as
compared to 1995 due to fully amortizing the remaining prepaid fees and
expenses related to the Mandalay Apartments PIM. Partnership expenses
decreased approximately $100,000 in 1996 versus 1995 as result of lower
asset management fees caused by a declining asset base and decreases of
approximately $34,000 in expense reimbursements to affiliates and $27,000
in general and administrative expenses.

To the Partners of
Krupp Insured Plus Limited Partnership:

We have audited the financial statements and the financial
statement schedule of Krupp Insured Plus Limited Partnership (the
"Partnership") listed in the index on page F-2 of this Form 10-K. These
financial statements and financial statement schedule are the
responsibility of the General Partners of the Partnership. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial statement 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 these 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 the
General Partners of the Partnership, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, these financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Krupp
Insured Plus Limited Partnership as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years
in the period ended December 31, 1997 in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. In addition, in our opinion, the financial
statement schedule referred to above, when considered in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all
material respects, the information required to be included therein.

KRUPP INSURED PLUS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


A. Organization

Krupp Insured Plus Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") is a
Massachusetts Limited Partnership. The General Partners of the
Partnership are The Krupp Corporation and The Krupp Company Limited
Partnership-IV and the Corporate Limited Partner is Krupp Depositary
Corporation. The Partnership terminates on December 31, 2025,
unless terminated earlier upon the occurrence of certain events as
set forth in the Partnership Agreement.

The Partnership commenced the public offering of Units on July 7,
1986 and completed its public offering having sold 7,499,999 Units
for $149,489,830 net of purchase volume discounts of $510,150 as of
January 27, 1987.

B. Significant Accounting Policies

The Partnership uses the following accounting policies for financial
reporting purposes which differ in certain respects from those used
for federal income tax purposes (Note G):

MBS

The Partnership in accordance with Financial Accounting
Standards Board s Special Report on Statement 115, "Accounting for
Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" ( FAS 115 ),
classifies its MBS portfolio as available-for-sale. As such the
Partnership carries its MBS at fair market value and reflects any
unrealized gains (losses) as a separate component of Partners'
Equity. The Partnership amortizes purchase premiums or discounts
over the life of the underlying mortgages using the effective
interest method.

PIMs

The Partnership accounts for its MBS portion of a PIM in
accordance with FAS 115 under the classification of held to
maturity. The Partnership carries the Government National
Mortgage Association ( GNMA ) or Federal National Mortgage
Association ( FNMA ) MBS at amortized cost.

The Federal Housing Administration PIM is carried at amortized
cost unless the General Partner of the Partnership believes there
is an impairment in value, in which case a valuation allowance
would be established in accordance with Financial Accounting
Standards No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for impairment of a
Loan, and Financial Accounting Standard No. 118, Accounting by
Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income Recognition and
Disclosures.

Basic interest on PIMs is recognized at the stated rate of the
Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") insured
mortgage (less the servicer's fee) or the stated coupon rate of
the GNMA or FNMA MBS. The Partnership recognizes interest related
to the participation features as earned and when it deems these
amounts as collectible.

F-13






B.Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Partnership includes all short-term investments with
maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition in
cash and cash equivalents. The Partnership invests its cash
primarily in commercial paper and money market funds with a
commercial bank and has not experienced any loss to date on its
invested cash.

Prepaid Fees and Expenses

Prepaid fees and expenses represent prepaid acquisition fees and
expenses and prepaid participation servicing fees paid for the
acquisition and servicing of PIMs. The Partnership amortizes the
prepaid acquisition fees and expenses using a method that
approximates the effective interest method over a period of ten to
twelve years, which represents the actual maturity or anticipated
repayment of the underlying mortgage.

The Partnership repayment the prepaid participation servicing fees
using a method that approximates the effective interest method
over a ten year period beginning from the acquisition of the GNMA
or FNMA MBS or final endorsement of the FHA loan.

Income Taxes

The Partnership is not liable for federal or state income taxes
because Partnership income is allocated to the partners for income
tax purposes. If the Partnership's tax returns are examined by
the Internal Revenue Service or state taxing authority and such an
examination results in a change in Partnership taxable income,
such change will be reported to the partners.

Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of
assets and liabilities, contingent assets and liabilities and
revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.

C. PIMs

At December 31, 1997, the Partnership has investments in four PIMs.
The Partnership's PIMs consist of (a) a GNMA or FNMA MBS
representing the securitized first mortgage loan on the underlying
property or a sole participation interest in a first mortgage loan
originated under the FHA lending program on the underlying property
(collectively the "insured mortgages"), and (b) participation
interests in the revenue stream and appreciation of the underlying
property above specified base levels. The borrower conveys these
participation features to the Partnership generally through a
subordinated promissory note and mortgage (the "Agreement"). The
Partnership receives guaranteed monthly payments of principal and
interest on the GNMA and FNMA MBS and HUD insures the FHA mortgage
loan and the mortgage loan underlying the GNMA MBS. The Partnership
may receive interest related to its participation interests in the
underlying property, however, these amounts are neither insured nor
guaranteed.


F-15





KRUPP INSURED PLUS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued


C.PIMs, Continued

Generally, the participation features consist of the following: (i)
"Minimum Additional Interest" which is at the rate of .5% per annum
calculated on the unpaid principal balance of the first mortgage on
the underlying property, (ii) "Shared Income Interest" which is 25%
of the monthly gross rental income generated by the underlying
property in excess of a specified base, but only to the extent that
it exceeds the amount of Minimum Additional Interest earned during
such month, (iii) "Shared Appreciation Interest" which is 25% of
any increase in the value of the underlying property in excess of a
specified base. Payment of participation interest from the
operations of the property is limited to 50% of net revenue or
surplus cash as defined by FNMA or HUD, respectively. The aggregate
amount of Minimum Additional Interest,
Shared Income Interest and Shared Appreciation Interest payable by
the underlying borrower on the maturity date generally cannot exceed
50% of any
increase in value of the property. However, generally any net proceeds
from a sale or refinancing of the property will be available to satisfy
any accrued but unpaid Shared Income or Minimum Additional Interest.

Shared Appreciation Interest is payable when one of the following
occurs: (1) the sale of the underlying property to an unrelated
third party on a date which is later than five years from the date
of the Agreement, (2) the maturity date or accelerated maturity date
of the Agreement, or (3) prepayment of amounts due under the
Agreement and the insured mortgage.

The borrower may prepay the first mortgage loan subject to a 9%
prepayment penalty in years six through nine, a 1% prepayment
penalty in year ten and no prepayment penalty thereafter.

Under the Agreement, the Partnership, upon giving twelve months
written notice, can accelerate the maturity date of the Agreement to
a date not earlier than ten years from the date of the Agreement for
(a) the payment of all participation interest due under the
Agreement as of the accelerated maturity date, or (b) the payment of
all participation interest due under the Agreement plus all amounts
due on the first mortgage note on the property.

In November of 1997, the borrower of the Pine Hills Apartments PIM
prepaid the insured mortgage. The borrower also paid $290,390 and
$252,260, representing participation interst income and Shared
Appreciation Interest, respectively. The Partnership made a special
distribution of $.61 per Unit to investors from the proceeds of the
repayment.

In November, 1996, the borrower of the Mandalay Apartments PIM
completed a refinancing of the property and prepaid the insured mortgage.
The borrower also paid $379,000 representing a portion of accumulated
participation income. The Partnership made a special distribution of
$2.20 per
F-16



KRUPP INSURED PLUS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued


Unit to investors from the proceeds of the payoff. In
November 1996, the Partnership fully amortized the remaining
prepaid fees and expenses of the Mandalay Apartments PIM and
retired them from the books.

At December 31, 1997 and 1996 there were no loans within the
Partnership s portfolio that were delinquent as to principal or
interest.

The Partnership's PIMs consist of the following at December 31, 1997 and
1996:



Aggregate Range of Range of
Original Number Interest Maturity Investment Basis at
Issuer Principal of PIMs Rates Dates(a) December 31,

(a) The range of maturity dates for PIMs issued by GNMA and FHA represent
the stated maturity date of the security or insured mortgage, however,
the Partnership anticipates realizing amounts due under these PIMs
well before these stated maturity dates.
(b) Includes a PIM with a prepayment penalty of 9% in year 6 through 7, 3%
in year 8 and 9, with no penalty thereafter.
(c) On January 1, 1992, the Partnership entered into an agreement which
provided for a reduction in the permanent interest rate on a GNMA PIM
having an original face value of $4,900,000, which reduced the
interest rate from 8.5% to 7% for a period of four years. The
reduction in the permanent interest rate was granted in exchange for a
reduction of the Shared Appreciation Interest Base from $5,700,000 to
$4,900,000.
(d) At December 31, 1996 there were three GNMA PIMs.
(e) On November 30, 1993, the Partnership entered into an agreement with
the underlying borrower of the FHA PIM for a permanent interest rate
reduction from 8.875% per annum to 7.375% per annum, retroactive to
January 1, 1992. In exchange for the interest rate reduction, the
Partnership received an increase in Shared Appreciation Income from
25% in excess of the base amount of $15,410,000 to 25% of the net
sales proceeds over the outstanding indebtedness at the time of sale
($13,565,709 as of December 31, 1997). In the event of a refinancing,
Shared Appreciation Income is 25% of the appraised value over the
outstanding indebtedness at the time of refinancing. In addition,
Shared Income Interest increased from 25% of rental income in excess
of the base amount of $175,000 to 25% of all distributable surplus
cash.
(f) The total PIM on the underlying property is $22,000,000 of which 73%
or $15,978,742 is held by Krupp Insured Plus III Limited Partnership.
(g) During December 1995, the Partnership agreed to a modification of the
Royal Palm PIM. The Partnership received a reissued Federal National
Mortgage Association ("FNMA") mortgage-backed security ("MBS") and
increased its participation percentage in income and appreciation from
25% to 30%. The Partnership will receive interest only payments on
the FNMA MBS at interest rates ranging from 6.25% to 8.775% per annum
through maturity. Also, the Partnership has received its pro-rata
share of a $90,644 principal payment made in December 1995 and its
pro-rata share of a $250,000 principal payment made in January 1997.
The Partnership will also receive its pro-rata share of annual
principal payments totaling $250,000 due each year in January for the
next three years.

Continued
G. Federal Income Taxes, Continued

The allocation of the 1997 net income for federal income tax purposes is as
follows:

Portfolio
Income

Unitholders $4,829,233
Corporate Limited Partner 64
General Partners 141,558

$4,970,855

For the years Ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 the
average per unit net income to the Unitholders for federal

The basis of the Partnership s assets for financial
reporting purposes is less than its tax basis by
approximately $442,000 and $438,000 at December 31, 1997 and
1996, respectively. The basis of the Partnership s
liabilities for financial reporting purposes are the same
for its tax basis at December 31, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.

H. Fair Value Disclosures of Financial Instruments

The Partnership used the following methods and assumptions
to estimate the fair value of each class of financial
instruments:

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the
short maturity of those instruments.

MBS

The Partnership estimated the fair value of MBS based on
quoted market prices.


PIMs

There is no active trading market for these investments.
Management estimates the fair value of the PIMs using quoted
market prices of MBS having the same stated coupon rate.
Management does not include any participation income in the
Partnership s estimated fair value arising from the
properties, because Management does not believe it can
predict the time of realization of the feature with any
certainty. Based on the estimated fair value determined
using these methods and assumptions, the Partnership's
investments in PIMs had gross unrealized gains and losses of
approximately $133,000 and $22,000 at December 31, 1997,
respectively, and unrealized gains and losses of
approximately $474,000 and $652,000 at December 31, 1996.




H. Fair Value Disclosures of Financial Instruments

At December 31, 1997 and 1996, the Partnership estimates fair value of its
financial instruments as follows:

(Rounded to $1,000)
1997 1996

Cash and cash equivalents $ 3,101 $ 1,757

MBS 25,898 27,147

PIMs 37,881 42,568

$66,880 $71,472

I. Subsequent Event

On March 16, 1998, the Partnership received proceeds from the
prepayment of the Greentree Apartments PIM. The Partnership received
the outstanding principal balance of $8,382,336. The Partnership
plans on distributing $1.12 per Limited Partner Interest during
April 1998 from these principal proceeds of this loan.
