ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At December 31, 2002, the partnership had $814,043 in cash and
cash equivalents. This represents 16.8% of capital raised. At
September 30, 2003, the Partnership had $859,723 in cash and cash
equivalents. This represents 17.7% of capital raised. The Partnership
had established a working capital reserve of 5% of the gross proceeds
of the offering. After May 15, 1990, the Partnership's Prospectus
provided that the working capital reserve could be reduced to 3% of
capital raised depending upon the Partnership's experience with its
properties. The General Partner does not anticipate having to borrow
for working capital reserves in 2003.
The Partnership distributed $200,000 in December 2002. This
represented operating funds from Bellevue Plaza. The General Partner is
evaluating cash flow to determine whether cash distributions will be
made in 2003.
Bellevue
In October 1988, the Partnership acquired a 66.67% interest in a
Tennessee joint venture known as Bellevue Plaza Partners holding as its
primary asset a shopping center located in Nashville, Tennessee
("Bellevue") which was renovated in 1988. The Bellevue property is
100% leased. Lease rent from the tenants amounts to $48,367 per
occupancy month. In addition, the tenants pay common area maintenance
charges of $5,881 per month for a total of $54,248 per month.
On July 1, 1999, the joint venture obtained a $4,150,000 first
mortgage loan on this property from an unaffiliated lender. The
mortgage bears interest at a rate of 7.25% per annum and requires
monthly installments of principal and interest of $37,656. The loan
fully amortizes over 15 years. After paying off Mass Mutual, the
partnership had enough cash to pay for the improvements made to the T.
J. Maxx space. These funds had previously been advanced by T. J. Maxx
to the Partnership. This resulted in T. J. Maxx beginning monthly
rental payments in November of 1999. T. J. Maxx/Marshalls moved into
the center in November 1999 as planned. They occupy 28,300 square
feet. Due to the refinancing, payments from T. J. Maxx have increased
the gross cash flow from the center by approximately $50,000 a year
over the previous tenant.

The Partnership utilized the proceeds of the offering to
acquire, operate and hold for investment existing income producing
commercial real estate properties. Since the proceeds of the offering
were less than the maximum amount, the Partnership was unable to
diversify its investments to the extent initially desired.
