as supplemented through December 1995 and filed pursuant to Rule 424(b), are
hereby incorporated by reference.
PART 1
Item 1. Business
U.S. Realty Income Partners L.P. (the "Partnership") is a Delaware
limited partnership formed in 1987 for the purpose of acquiring, operating,
holding and ultimately disposing of existing income producing residential
and commercial real estate properties. The Partnership sold $4,858,000
limited partnership interests (the "Units") through November 30, 1989, when
it terminated its public offering (the "Offering") pursuant to a
Registration Statement on Form S-11 under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, which Offering registered 20,000 Units. The Partnership began
admitting limited partners on May 15, 1988.
The principal investment objectives of the Partnership are: (i)
preservation and protection of capital; (ii) long-term capital appreciation;
(iii) distribution of current cash flow, some of which may not be subject
to federal income taxes in the early years of the Partnership's operations;
(iv) build-up of equity through reduction of mortgage indebtedness on
Partnership properties; (v) a diversified real estate portfolio; and (vi)
federal income tax deductions during the initial years of the Partnership's
operations which may be used to offset income from the Partnership and
possibly other passive sources.
The Partnership is managed by the general partner of the Partnership
Vanderbilt Realty Joint Venture (the "General Partner"). Vanderbilt Realty
Associates, Inc., acts as the managing partner of the General Partner. The
General Partner has the responsibility for the initial selection, evaluation
and negotiation of the investments for the Partnership. In making the
Partnership's investments, the General Partner considered various real
property and financial factors, including the condition and use of the
property, the prospects for long-range liquidity, income-producing capacity,
long-term appreciation and income tax considerations. In addition, the
General Partner considers the possible effect of shortages of materials,
supplies and energy sources. As of December 31, 1992, the Partnership had
fully invested the proceeds raised in its offering through the purchase of
two properties through joint venture arrangements.
The Partnership invested in property only if one or more of the
following conditions were met: (1) during the period of at least one year
preceding the purchase, the property generated (or would have generated if
leases currently in existence had been in effect) cash flow in an amount
estimated to be
consistent with the Partnership's objectives; or (2) for a period of at
least two years, the projection of income from the property based on
executed leases or other appropriate guarantees indicates the Partnership
should obtain from the property cash flow consistent with its investment
objectives.
The Partnership has no employees. The General Partner and its
affiliates are permitted to perform services for the Partnership for a
competitive fee and have done so.
The business of the Partnership is not seasonal and the Partnership
does no foreign or export business.
A presentation of information about industry segments is not applicable
because the Partnership operates solely in the real estate industry.
Item 2. Properties.
In October 1988, the Partnership acquired a 66.67% interest in a
Tennessee joint venture known as Bellevue Plaza Partners owning as its
primary asset an improved shopping center located in Nashville, Tennessee.
The joint venture interest was acquired for a purchase price of $1,500,000.
Please refer to Supplement No. 2 dated October 26, 1988 for additional
information concerning the acquisition of this joint-venture interest which
supplement is incorporated herein by reference.
In November 1988, the Partnership acquired a 50% ownership interest in
a joint venture known as DR/US West End General Partnership, a Virginia
general partnership (the "DR/US Joint Venture"). The DR/US Joint Venture
owned an office building located in Nashville, Tennessee. See Supplement
No. 3 dated November 29, 1988 for additional information concerning this
property which supplement is incorporated herein by referenced. The
Partnership purchased its interest for an initial contribution of $900,000.
In order to retain its 50% interest, the Partnership contributed an
additional $1,035,000 to the DR/US Joint Venture by August 1989. In 1991,
an additional $150,000 was contributed as part of a Chapter 11
reorganization. In 1995, the DR/US Joint Venture contributed its equity
position in the office building to Daniels Southeast Venture. See
"Liquidity and Capital Resources".
Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
None.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
No matters were submitted to the Limited Partners during the fourth
quarter ended December 31, 1995.
PART II
Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Limited Partnership Interests and
Related Limited Partner Matters.
At December 31, 1995, the Partnership had admitted Limited Partners
holding 4,858 Units.
The Partnership does not currently intend to list the Units on a
national securities exchange, and there is no public market for the Units.
If a public market for the Units does not develop, the Partnership may, in
the sole discretion of the General Partner, repurchase Units under certain
circumstances, as set forth in the Partnership's prospectus. At the request
of a limited partner, other than a resident of the State of California, who
wishes to sell all or a part of the Limited Partner's Units, the General
Partner may assist such Limited Partner in locating a purchaser, within the
limit of applicable laws and regulations. Neither the General Partner nor
the Partnership is obligated to redeem or repurchase Units.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
As of December 31, 1995, the Partnership had raised $4,858,000 in funds
from Limited Partners. The Partnership's offering terminated in November
1989.
During 1988 the Partnership purchased interests in two joint ventures
located in Nashville, Tennessee.
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 was 100% leased at the
end of 1993 - 1995. 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 February 1, 1989, the joint venture obtained a $3,800,000 first
mortgage loan on this property from an unaffiliated lender. The mortgage
bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum and requires monthly installments
of interest only through February 1, 1991. Monthly debt service was $31,667
until March 1991 at which time monthly installments of principal and
interest rose to $33,743. The Partnership has paid debt service on a
current basis.
DR/US West End
In November 1988, the Partnership acquired a 50% ownership interest
in a joint venture known as DR/US West End General Partnership (the "Joint
Venture") which owns an office building located in Nashville, Tennessee.
The Partnership's Joint Venture partner is Daniel West End Limited
Partnership, the general partner of which is the Daniel Corporation
("Daniel"). The property was 95% occupied at December 31, 1993, 1994 and
1995. There are no tenant leases currently under negotiation. One tenant
occupies 45.9% of the space with payments providing annual lease income of
$932,000. The lease runs through October 31, 1998, with three additional
three-year options to renew at market rates. This tenant may cancel its
lease with six months' notice after 1998 with a termination payment equal
to the present value of future rents due using a discount rate of prime plus
two percent. Also, the tenant had the option to reduce its total square
footage, but extending its lease term. The lease was extended for two more
years, through October 31, 1998 at $19.35 per square foot for the first year
and at a market rate in the second year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On November 1, 1988, for an initial investment of $900,000, the
Partnership acquired a 50% interest in the DR/US West End General
Partnership (the "DR/US Joint Venture"), a Tennessee general partnership
formed to own and operate a commercial office building in Nashville,
Tennessee (the "3310 Office Building"). The 3310 Office Building was 95%
leased at December 31, 1995. One tenant occupies 45.9% of the space with
payments providing base annual lease income of $932,000. The lease for this
tenant runs through November 31, 1998, with two additional three-year
options to renew at market rates. This tenant may cancel its lease with six
months' notice after 1998 with a termination payment equal to the present
value of true rents due using a discount rate of prime plus two percent.
Also, the tenant has the option to reduce its total square footage, but
extending its lease term. The first mortgage principal debt balance at June
30, 1995 was $[6,673,138] and bore interest at 9%. This debt was scheduled
to mature in April, 1997. In addition, the other joint venture partner
loaned $673,512 to the DR/US Joint Venture at prime plus 1% which was
scheduled to mature March 1, 2028, in order to meet the venture to meet its
obligations. Also, there was a $220,696 nonrecourse promissory note paying
interest only at 8% which matures February 1, 1997.
In view of the possible expiration of the lease for the largest tenant
of the 3310 Office Building and the maturity of the senior debt on the
property, the DR/US Joint Venture began to consider future plans for the
3310 Office Building as well as a sale of the property and discussed
possible alternatives with third parties, including the Prudential Life
Insurance Company of America ("Prudential").
Effective August 1995, the DR/US Joint Venture contributed all of its
assets to a newly formed limited partnership, the Daniel S.E. Limited
Partnership, a Virginia limited partnership (the US/Daniel Venture"). The
US/Daniel Venture then contributed its assets to a newly-formed limited
liability company known as Prudential/Daniel Office Venture, LLC, (the
"PruDan L.L.C"). The members of PruDan LLC are the US/Daniel Venture and
Prudential.
The assets of PruDan LLC consist of: (1) the 3310 Office Building,
a 107,000 square foot office building in Nashville, Tennessee; (2) the
Somerset Park Business Center, a 108,113 square foot six-story office
building located in Raleigh, North Carolina; and (3) Somerset Park, 207,326
square feet in four two-story office building located in Raleigh, North
Carolina (items 2 and 3 are collectively referred to as the "somerset
Buildings"). The assets of PruDan LLC reflect indirect capital
contributions from the Partnership, Daniel Realty Company ("DRC") and First
Daniel Realty Development Corporation (collective, with DRC, "Daniel") and
Prudential valued at $1,361,445, $2,131,055 and $31,432,500, respectively,
or equity interests of 3.9%, 6.1% and 90.0%, respectively. The
Partnership's capital contribution consisted of its interest in the assets
of the DR/US Joint Venture, principally the 3310 Office Building. Daniel's
capital contribution consisted of its interest in the assets of the DR/US
Joint Venture (valued at $355,600) and is interest in the Somerset Buildings
(valued at $1,775,455). Prudential's capital contribution consisted of
payoff of $7,537,955 of debt on the 3310 Office Building, plus $120,000 for
a new roof repair escrow, purchasing Metropolitan Life Insurance's interest
in the Somerset Buildings, payoff of debt on the Somerset Buildings, and
transactions costs including due diligence, closing costs, and fees for
professional services (legal and accounting) totalling 1.5% of the
transaction.
In reaching the decision to contribute the Partnership's interest in
the DR/US Joint Venture to the PruDan LLC, the General Partners considered
a number of factors:
(1) The 3310 Office Building was subject to a first mortgage loan
with a principal debt balance at June 30, 1995 of $6,634,502,
bearing interest at 9%, and scheduled to mature in April 1997.
(2) A single tenant, Gresham & Smith ("G&S"), occupied 45.9% of the
space in the 3310 Office Building providing base annual lease
income of $932,000 pursuant to a lease scheduled to terminate
in October, 1998, less than nineteen months after maturity of
the debt on the property.
(3) Based on its present projections, the DR/US Joint Venture
estimated that all of the existing cash flow between now and the
year 2000 would be required to pay the debt expense and
establish a reserve necessary to find a replacement tenant for
G&S or to make necessary tenant improvements. The General
Partners estimate that approximately $1,200,000 could be
required to make necessary improvements to secure new tenants.
In making these considerations, the General Partners considered two
alternatives to the formation of the PruDan LLC; refinancing and sale of the
3310 Office Building. With the uncertainty surrounding the G&S lease, it
was unlikely that another lender would be willing to make a loan. G&S would
not commit to extend their lease at this time and even if a new loan could
be procured, it is unlikely that there would be sufficient proceeds to pay
off the existing debt. The mortgage problem created by the timing of the
G&S lease expiration also served to increase the difficulty in a sale of the
property. For these reasons, the General Partners believe the PruDan LLC
presented the most viable option for the Partnership.
The General Partners believe the Partnership's investment in the
PruDan LLC accomplished the following objectives:
(1) Eliminated the mortgage problem created by the expiration of the
G&S lease by retiring all debt on the 3310 Office Building;
(2) Reduced the direct risk to the Partnership involving the
potential expiration of the G&S lease and the potential loss of
cash flow.
(3) Establishment of a strong working relationship with Prudential,
an entity with significant capital resources.
(4) Diversification of risk from single asset, single location to
multiple assets in different locations; and
(5) Access to cash flow from Bellevue Plaza formerly used for debt
service on the 3310 Office Building and now available for
distribution to the Partnership's limited partners.
These objectives were accomplished without requiring any additional debt or
the need for capital contributions from the Partnership's limited partners.
The General Partners are currently considering the possibility of annual
distributions to the limited partners from the cash flow from Bellevue
Plaza.
The operational results of the Partnership for the years ended December
31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 are summarized below:

The Partnership has utilized the proceeds of the offering as set forth
under "Estimated Use of Proceeds of the Offering," in the Partnership's
Prospectus to acquire, operate and hold for investment existing income
producing residential and commercial real estate properties. Since the
proceeds of the offering are less than the maximum amount the Partnership
was unable to diversify its investments to the extent initially desired.
The Partnership has 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%
depending upon the Partnership's experience with its properties. At
December 31, 1995, the Partnership had $155,183 in cash and cash
equivalents. This represents 3.19% of capital raised. In the event such
reserves are insufficient to satisfy unanticipated costs, the Partnership
will be required to borrow additional funds to meet such costs.
Due to the ongoing commitments with the lenders on the Joint Venture,
the General Partner has deemed it advisable not to make any cash
distributions since May 1990. The General Partner does expect to make cash
distributions in 1995. However, the amount is not known at this time.
Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
See Index to Financial Statements on Page F-l of Form 10-K for

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and
Financial Disclosure.
The Partnership changed accountants from Hill, Neal, and Allen, P.C.
to Dempsey, Wilson & Co., P.C. There were no disagreements regarding
accounting and financial disclosures. The prior accountants firm has
undergone several personnel changes and the Partnership felt it would be
better served by the new accountants.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management.
(a) Limited Partners were admitted beginning May 15, 1988 and
admissions ceased in November 1989, at which time the Partnership's offering
terminated. As of this date, the Partnership is not aware of any person or
group who has subscribed for more than 5% of the outstanding Units.
(b) The officers and directors of the general partners of the General
Partner of the Partnership as a group have subscribed for the following
Units:
Amount of Class Beneficial Ownership Percent of Class
Units of Limited
Partnership Interest None 0%
No officer or director of the general partners of the General Partner
possesses a right to acquire beneficial ownership of additional Units other
than those noted above.
Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.
The Partnership is subject to various conflicts of interest arising out
of its relationship with the General Partner and its Affiliates. All
agreements and arrangements, including those relating to compensation,
between the Partnership and the General Partner and its Affiliates are not
the result of arm's-length negotiations.
Affiliates of the General Partner have been general partners or
managers of other limited partnerships or groups of investors, which have
invested in real properties. In addition, the General Partner and its
Affiliates have and continue to form and manage or advise additional public
and private real estate investment entities. The General Partner and its
Affiliates will have conflicts of interest in allocating management time,
services and functions between various existing partnerships and any future
partnerships which they may organize or serve, as well as other business
ventures in which they are involved. Miller & Associates, Inc., which, for
a property management fee, may perform property management services for
Partnership properties, and may also, in the future, solicit outside
property management accounts.
Many of the officers and directors of the constituent partners of the
General Partner are also officers and directors of one or more entities
(many of which are affiliated with the General Partner) which engage in the
development, brokerage, sale, operation or management of real estate.
The General Partner and its Affiliates do intend to sponsor privately
offered real estate partnerships although it is not anticipated that the
investment objectives of such partnerships will be the same as those of the
Partnership.
The General Partner has certain interests in the Operating Cash Flow,
Net Sale or Refinancing Proceeds and profits and losses of the Partnership.
Because the timing and amount of Operating Cash Flow, Net Sale or
Refinancing Proceeds and profits and losses of the Partnership received by,
or allocated to, the Limited Partners may be affected by decisions of the
General Partner, including the timing of a sale of any of the Partnership
properties, the establishment and maintenance of reasonable reserves, the
timing of expenditures, the level of mortgage amortization and other
matters, the General Partner may have a conflict of interest with respect
to such determinations.
Where conflicts arise from anticipated transactions with Affiliates of
the General Partner, the limitations described below have been adopted.
While the Partnership will make no loans to the General Partner or its
Affiliates, the Partnership may borrow money from the General Partner or its
Affiliates but only on terms as to interest rate, security, fees and other
charges at least as favorable to the Partnership as that changed by
unaffiliated lending institutions in the same locality on comparable loans
for the same purpose.
The General Partners and its Affiliates are not prohibited from
providing services to, and otherwise dealing or doing business with, persons
who deal with the Partnership, although there are no present arrangements
with respect to any such services. However, no rebates or "give-ups" may
be received by the General Partner or any of its Affiliates, nor may the
General Partner or any such Affiliates participate in any reciprocal
business arrangement which would have the effect of circumventing any of the
provisions of the Agreement.
Zoch & Zoch Financial Group, Inc., a broker-dealer affiliated with the
General Partner, acted as Selling Agent in the offering but did not receive
selling commissions.
