NOTE 1:      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
             ------------------------------------------

                                 Nature of Partnership
                                 ---------------------

             TPI Land Development IV Limited Partnership is a limited
             partnership formed under the laws of the State of Arizona of which
             Herve J. R. Tessier and TPI Asset Management, Inc., an Arizona
             corporation, are the general partners.

             The Partnership was formed to acquire parcels of unimproved or
             partially improved real property for development and may acquire
             operating commercial and other business real property in Arizona
             as investments to hold for future appreciation.

             On January 28, 1990 the Partnership offering was closed.  The
             total raised during the offering period was $2,525,300 or 25,253
             units.


             Duration of Partnership

             It is the intention of the Partnership to acquire property for
             investment and appreciation purposes.  The Partnership may,
             however, sell a portion or all of the properties in the future
             with a view towards liquidation of the Partnership.  Such sales
             could occur approximately two to five years after property
             acquisition.  However, if not terminated prior to December 31,
             2004, the Partnership shall cease to exist at that date.

             Amortization of Organization Costs

             Organization costs represent costs incurred during the formation
             period of the Partnership and are being amortized over 60 months.

             Amortization of Loan Fees
             -------------------------

             Loan fees represent costs incurred in obtaining a note payable.
             These costs are being amortized over 24 months.

NOTE 1:      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
             ------------------------------------------------------

             Syndication Costs
             -----------------

             Syndication costs represent commissions incurred on the sale of
             limited partnership interests and the costs of preparing the
             limited partnership prospectus.  These costs have been charged
             against partners' contributions.

             Income Taxes
             ------------

             No provision for income taxes is made for the Partnership as the
             reporting and payment of income tax is the responsibility of the
             individual partners.

             Partners' Preferred Return on Capital Contributions
             ---------------------------------------------------

             As an incentive to early investment and the purchase of larger
             numbers of units, limited partners will receive a preferred return
             on their investment.  The preferred return is determined by
             applying a preference percentage (based upon the date the
             contribution is received and the number of units purchased) to the
             limited partner's adjusted capital account balance from the first
             day of the month following the receipt of the limited partner's
             investment to the date of recoupment of that Investment.

             Allocation of Net Profits, Losses, and Distributions to Partners
             ----------------------------------------------------------------

             Net profits, losses, and distributions are allocated ninety-nine
             percent (99%) to the limited partners in accordance with their
             respective capital percentages and one percent (1%) to the general
             partners until the limited partners have collectively received
             their preferred return on their adjusted capital contribution,
             then one hundred percent (100%) to the general partners until they
             have received twenty-five percent (25%) of the distributions to
             partners after recoupment and program return, and then seventy-
             five percent (75%) of the remainder to the limited partners and
             twenty-five percent (25%) to the general partners.

             funds of $19,008 to the partnership.  Partial payment of this note
             was made during 2000.

NOTE 7:      On June 26, 1995, the partnership filed a petition for
             reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.  In May,
             1997, the partnership emerged from Chapter 11 Bankruptcy.

NOTE 8:      TPI Holdings, Inc., as the holding company of the corporate
             general partner, has advanced operating funds of $8,000 to the

             Investors I L.P. and $310,000 from TPI Land Investors II on a
             first trust deed basis secured by the  Partnership's remaining
             real estate parcel in Casa Grande, Arizona.  The proceeds from the
             note were used to  replace the Ogsbury note, and thus refinance
             the Partnership and allow it to emerge from Chapter 11 Bankruptcy.
             During February, 1998, a further $20,000 was loaned to the

             by TPI Land Investors II under the terms of this note. This note
             was paid during 2002 by the deeding of property to TPI I and TPI
             II.

On January 28, 1990 the Partnership offering was closed.  The total raised
during the offering was $2,525,300 or 25,253 units.  The main source of income
for the operating stage of the partnership is interest income from money market
instruments and income from sale of the now subdivided lots.  On April 20, 1990
the partnership obtained a loan in the amount of $450,000 for the purpose of
eliminating an existing note and increasing the partnership's operating
reserves.  The amount borrowed was determined by the payoff of the existing
note and estimated operating expenses and other note obligations for two years.

In the fall of 1990, the General Partner was involved in negotiations with the
original note holder of Acquisition No. 1 - Baseline and 32nd Street to
restructure the carryback on that parcel.  An agreement had been reached in
principal; however, negotiations were halted when legal problems arose with the
Modification Agreement and with the title to the commercial portion of the
parcel which was to have been released to the Partnership at the time of
purchase.

To restructure its debt and reorganize the partnership, the General Partner
filed a petition for reorganization under Chapter XI of the Bankruptcy Code.
