PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 1. Financial Statements.

Consolidated Balance Sheets - June 30, 2002 (unaudited) and
December 31, 2001
Consolidated Statements of Operations - Three Months and Six
Months Ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 (unaudited)
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows - Six Months Ended June
30, 2002 and 2001 (unaudited)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

(1) Liquidity

As of June 30, 2002, Registrant had cash of $319,709.
The Registrant expects that those funds plus the cash generated from
operations at each property will be sufficient to fund the operating
expenses of the properties. The Registrant is not aware of any
additional sources of liquidity.

As of June 30, 2002, Registrant had restricted cash of
$22,674 consisting primarily of funds held as security deposits,
replacement reserves and escrows for taxes and insurance. As a
consequence of the restrictions as to use, Registrant does not deem
these funds to be a source of liquidity.

(2) Capital Resources

Any capital expenditures needed are generally replacement
items and are funded out of cash from operations. The Registrant is
not aware of any factors which would cause historical capital
expenditure levels not to be indicative of capital requirements in the
future and accordingly does not believe that it will have to commit
material resources to capital investment for the foreseeable future.

(3) Results of Operations

During the second quarter of 2002, Registrant incurred a
loss of $34,032 ($4.07 per limited partnership unit) compared to a
loss of $3,007 ($.35 per limited partnership unit) for the same period
in 2001. For the first six months of 2002, the Registrant incurred a
loss of $69,707 ($8.33 per limited partnership unit) compared to a
loss of $31,653 ($3.78 per limited partnership unit) for the same
period in 2001.

Rental income increased $728 from $52,390 in the
second quarter of 2001 to $53,118 in the same period in 2002 and
increased $2,535 from $100,632 for the first six months of 2001 to
$103,167 in the same period in 2002. The increase in rental income
from the second quarter of 2001, compared to the same period in 2002
is due to an increase in average rental rates at the Brass Works. The
increase from the first six months of 2001 to the same period in 2002
is due to an increase in average occupancy at Locke Mill Plaza (85% to
86%).

Interest income decreased $1,014 from $2,478 in the
second quarter of 2001 to $1,464 in the same period of 2002. Interest
income decreased $2,064 from $4,985 for the first six months of 2001
to $2,921 in the same period of 2002. The decrease in interest income
from both the second quarter and the first six months of 2001,
compared to the same periods in 2002 is due to a decrease in money
market interest rates.

Rental operations expense increased $20,766 from $29,110
in the second quarter of 2001 to $49,876 in the same period of 2002
and for the first six months increased by $28,181 from $67,740 for the
first six months of 2001 to $95,921 in the same period of 2002. The
increase from the second quarter of 2001, compared to the same period
in 2002, is due to an increase in maintenance service at Locke Mill
Plaza and the Brass Works, an increase in capital assessments at Locke
Mill Plaza and an increase in accounting expenses. The increase in
accounting expenses is due to the accrual of current and prior year
accounting fees. The increase from the first six months of 2001 to the
same period in 2002 is due to an increase in maintenance service and
insurance expense at Locke Mill Plaza and an increase in maintenance
expense, real estate tax expense and insurance expense at the Brass
Works. The increase in maintenance expense at the Brass Works is due
to increases in maintenance and cleaning services, partially offset by
a decrease in apartment preparation expense.

General and administrative expenses increased $6,000 from
$6,000 in the second quarter of 2001 to $12,000 in the same period of
2002, and for the first six months increased $6,000 from $24,000 in
the first six months of 2001 to $30,000 in the same period of 2002.
The increase in general and administrative expense from both the
second quarter and the first six months of 2001, compared to the same
periods in 2002, is due to timing differences in which the accrual of
the Registrant's administration fees were recorded. As of year end,
twelve months of administration fees were fully accrued for both 2001
and 2002.

Bad debt expense of $2,861 was incurred during the second
quarter of 2002 due to the write off of tenant accounts receivable
that were deemed uncollectible.

Income recognized during the quarter at the Registrant's
two properties was approximately $4,000 in 2002 compared to income of
$6,000 for the same period in 2001. For the first six months of 2002,
the Registrant incurred a loss of $12,000 compared to a loss of $1,000
for the same period in 2001.

In the second quarter of 2002, the Registrant recognized
net income of $6,000 at the Brass Works, including $13,000 of
depreciation expense, compared to net income of $7,000 including
$12,000 of depreciation expense in the second quarter of 2001. In the
first six months of 2002, Registrant incurred a net loss of $5,000 at
the Brass Works, including $25,000 of depreciation expense, compared
to a net income of $9,000 for the same period in 2001, including
$24,000 of depreciation expense. The decrease in net income from the
second quarter of 2001, compared to the same period in 2002, is due to
a decrease in average occupancy (100% to 97%) and an increase in
maintenance service, partially offset by an increase in average rental
rates. The decrease in net income from the first six months of 2001,
compared to the same period in 2002 is due to a decrease in average
occupancy (100% to 92%) and increases in maintenance expense, real
estate tax expense, insurance expense and bad debt expense. The
increase in maintenance expense is due to increases in maintenance and
cleaning services. The increase in real estate tax expense is due to
an increase in the property's assessed value and the increase in
insurance expense is due to higher premiums. Bad debt expense
increased due to the write off of tenant accounts receivable that were
deemed uncollectible.

In the second quarter of 2002, the Registrant incurred a
net loss of $2,000 at Locke Mill Plaza, including $7,000 of
depreciation expense, compared to a net loss of $1,000 including
$7,000 of depreciation expense in the second quarter of 2001. In the
first six months of 2002, the Registrant incurred a net loss of $7,000
including $14,000 of depreciation expense, compared to a net loss of
$10,000, including $13,000 of depreciation expense for the same period
in 2001. The increase in net loss from the second quarter of 2001,
compared to the same period in 2002, is due to a decrease in average
occupancy (100% to 77%) and increases in capital assessments and
maintenance wages, partially offset by a decrease in leasing
commissions. The decrease in net loss from the first six months of
2001, compared to the same period in 2002 is due to an increase in
average occupancy (85% to 86%) and decreases in leasing commissions,
capital assessments, and apartment preparation expenses. The decrease
in net loss is partially offset by an increase in insurance expense
and maintenance wages. The increase in insurance expense is due to
higher premiums.


Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are
designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 reports is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's
rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our managing partner's
principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as
appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures,
our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter
how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance
of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management
necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-
benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Under the supervision of our managing partner's principal
executive officer and principal financial officer we have carried out
an evaluation of the effectiveness of our adopted disclosure controls
and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Based upon that evaluation, our managing partner's president and
treasurer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are
effective.

There have been no significant changes in our internal
controls over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over
financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter.
