CNL INCOME FUND VII, LTD.
(A Florida Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Quarters and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2003 and 2002


1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not
include all of the information and note disclosures required by
generally accepted accounting principles. The financial statements
reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments,
which are, in the opinion of the general partners, necessary for a fair
statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Operating
results for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2003, may
not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ending December 31, 2003. Amounts as of December 31, 2002, included in
the financial statements, have been derived from audited financial
statements as of that date.

These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and notes thereto included in Form 10-K of CNL
Income Fund VII, Ltd. (the "Partnership") for the year ended December
31, 2002.

The Partnership accounts for its 83% interest in San Antonio #849 Joint
Venture using the consolidation method. Minority interest represents
the minority joint venture partners' proportionate share of the equity
in the Partnership's consolidated joint venture. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"), "Consolidation of
Variable Interest Entities" to expand upon and strengthen existing
accounting guidance that addresses when a company should include the
assets, liabilities and activities of another entity in its financial
statements. To improve financial reporting by companies involved with
variable interest entities (more commonly referred to as
special-purpose entities or off-balance sheet structures), FIN 46
requires that a variable interest entity be consolidated by a company
if that company is subject to a majority risk of loss from the variable
interest entity's activities or entitled to receive a majority of the
entity's residual returns or both. Prior to FIN 46, a company generally
included another entity in its consolidated financial statements only
if it controlled the entity through voting interests. The consolidation
requirements of FIN 46 apply immediately to variable interest entities
created after January 31, 2003, and to older entities, in the first
fiscal year or interim period ending after December 15, 2003. The
general partners believe adoption of this standard may result in either
consolidation or additional disclosure requirements of the
Partnership's unconsolidated joint ventures, which are currently
accounted for under the equity method. However, such consolidation is
not expected to significantly impact the Partnership's results of
operations.

In May 2003, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 150, "Accounting for
Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities
and Equity" ("FAS 150"). FAS 150 establishes standards for how an
issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with
characteristics of both liabilities and equity. FAS 150 will require
issuers to classify certain financial instruments as liabilities (or
assets in some circumstances) that previously were classified as
equity. One requirement of FAS 150 is that minority interests for
majority owned finite lived entities be classified as a liability and
recorded at fair market value. FAS 150 initially applied immediately to
all financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003,
and otherwise was effective at the beginning of the first interim
period beginning after June 15, 2003. Effective October 29, 2003, the
FASB deferred implementation of FAS 150 as it applies to minority
interests of finite lived Partnerships. The deferral of these
provisions is expected to remain in effect while these interests are
addressed in either Phase II of the FASB's Liabilities and Equity
project or Phase II of the FASB's Business Combinations project;
therefore, no specific timing for the implementation of these
provisions has been stated. The implementation of the currently
effective aspects of FAS 150 did not have an impact on the
Partnership's results of operations.





CNL INCOME FUND VII, LTD.
(A Florida Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Quarters and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2003 and 2002


2. Reclassification

Certain items in the prior year's financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to 2003 presentation. These reclassifications
had no effect on total partners' capital or net income.





ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

CNL Income Fund VII, Ltd. (the "Partnership") is a Florida limited
partnership that was organized on August 18, 1989, to acquire for cash, either
directly or through joint venture and tenancy in common arrangements, both newly
constructed and existing restaurants, as well as land upon which restaurants
were to be constructed (the "Properties"), which are leased primarily to
operators of national and regional fast-food, family-style and casual dining
restaurant chains. The leases generally are triple-net leases, with the lessees
responsible for all repairs and maintenance, property taxes, insurance and
utilities. As of September 30, 2003 and 2002, the Partnership owned 18
Properties directly and 17 Properties indirectly through joint venture or
tenancy in common arrangements.

Capital Resources

For the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, the Partnership
generated cash from operating activities of $2,047,935 and $1,921,428,
respectively. At September 30, 2003, the Partnership had $979,602 in cash and
cash equivalents, as compared to $972,797 at December 31, 2002. At September 30,
2003, these funds were held in demand deposit accounts at commercial banks. The
funds remaining at September 30, 2003, after payment of distributions and other
liabilities, will be used to invest in an additional Property and to meet the
Partnership's working capital needs.

Short-Term Liquidity

The Partnership's investment strategy of acquiring Properties for cash
and leasing them under triple-net leases to operators who generally meet
specified financial standards minimizes the Partnership's operating expenses.
The general partners believe that the leases will continue to generate cash flow
in excess of operating expenses.

The Partnership's short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily
of the operating expenses of the Partnership.

The general partners have the right, but not the obligation, to make
additional capital contributions if they deem it appropriate in connection with
the operations of the Partnership.

The Partnership generally distributes cash from operations remaining
after the payment of operating expenses of the Partnership, to the extent that
the general partners determine that funds are available for distribution. Based
on current and anticipated future cash from operations, the Partnership declared
distributions to the limited partners of $2,025,000 for each of the nine months
ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 ($675,000 for each applicable quarter). This
represents distributions of $0.068 per unit for each of the nine months ended
September 30, 2003 and 2002 ($0.023 per unit for each applicable quarter). No
distributions were made to the general partners for the quarters and nine months
ended September 30, 2003 and 2002. No amounts distributed to the limited
partners for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 are required to
be or have been treated by the Partnership as a return of capital for purposes
of calculating the limited partners' return on their adjusted capital
contributions. The Partnership intends to continue to make distributions of cash
available for distribution to the limited partners on a quarterly basis.

Total liabilities, including distributions payable, were $767,421 at
September 30, 2003, as compared to $733,847 at December 31, 2002. The general
partners believe that the Partnership has sufficient cash on hand to meet its
current working capital needs.

Long-Term Liquidity

The Partnership has no long-term debt or other long-term liquidity
requirements.






Results of Operations

Total rental revenues were $1,328,319 during the nine months ended
September 30, 2003, as compared to $1,341,270 during the same period of 2002,
$442,036 and $447,216 of which were earned during the third quarter of 2003 and
2002, respectively. Rental revenues during the quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 2003 remained constant, as compared to the quarter and nine months
ended September 30, 2002, since there was no change in the leased property
portfolio.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, the
Partnership also earned $28,057 and $27,420, respectively, in interest and other
income, of which $26,555 and $4,275 were earned during the quarters ended
September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Interest and other income increased
during the quarter ended September 30, 2003, as compared to the same period of
2002, because the Partnership recorded as income amounts received from the City
of San Antonio, Texas for a right of way taking relating to a parcel of land on
its Property in San Antonio Texas which is owned by the Partnership's
consolidated joint venture. Interest income was lower during the nine months
ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the same period of 2002. The decrease in
interest income during 2003 was due to a decrease in the average cash balance as
a result of the reinvestment during 2002 of sales proceeds in additional
Properties through joint venture arrangements and the collection of a promissory
note, as well as a decline in interest rates. Also, during the nine months ended
September 30, 2002, the Partnership recorded as income amounts received from the
State of Ohio for a right of way taking relating to a parcel of land on its
Property in Toledo, Ohio.

The Partnership also earned $645,525 attributable to net income earned
by unconsolidated joint ventures during the nine months ended September 30,
2003, as compared to $827,264 during the same period of 2002, $214,710 and
$426,399 of which were earned during the quarters ended September 30, 2003 and
2002, respectively. Net income earned by joint ventures was higher during the
quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2002 as compared to the same periods
of 2003 because in August 2002, Mansfield Joint Venture, in which the
Partnership owns a 79% interest, sold the Property in Mansfield, Texas. The
Partnership recorded its pro-rata share of the gain resulting from the sale of
this Property as equity in earnings. The net sales proceeds were reinvested in a
Property in Arlington, Texas. In addition, net income earned by joint ventures
was higher during the nine months ended September 30, 2002 due to the fact that
in June 2002, CNL Restaurant Investments II Joint Venture, in which the
Partnership owns an 18% interest, sold its Properties in Columbus, Ohio and
Pontiac, Michigan to the tenant. The Partnership recorded its pro-rata share of
the gains resulting from the sales of these Properties as equity in earnings.
The decrease in net income earned by unconsolidated joint ventures during the
nine months ended September 30, 2003 was partially offset by earnings related to
Arlington Joint Venture which the Partnership acquired in June 2002. The
decrease in net income earned by joint ventures during the nine months ended
September 30, 2003 was also partially offset by the fact that the tenant of the
Property owned by Duluth Joint Venture, in which the Partnership owns a 56%
interest, resumed making rental payments to the joint venture during the second
quarter of 2002. The tenant of the Property had previously experienced financial
difficulties and had ceased making rental payments to the joint venture. Duluth
Joint Venture had stopped recording rental revenues during the quarter ended
March 31, 2002.

Operating expenses, including depreciation expense, were $395,261
during the nine months ended September 30, 2003, as compared to $439,438 during
the same period of 2002, $117,768 and $115,557 of which were incurred during the
quarters ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Operating expenses
were higher during the nine months ended September 30, 2002, because the
Partnership elected to reimburse the tenant of the Properties in Odessa, El Paso
and Harlingen, Texas for certain renovation costs.

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"), "Consolidation of Variable
Interest Entities" to expand upon and strengthen existing accounting guidance
that addresses when a company should include the assets, liabilities and
activities of another entity in its financial statements. To improve financial
reporting by companies involved with variable interest entities (more commonly
referred to as special-purpose entities or off-balance sheet structures), FIN 46
requires that a variable interest entity be consolidated by a company if that
company is subject to a majority risk of loss from the variable interest
entity's activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity's residual
returns or both. Prior to FIN 46, a company generally included another entity in
its consolidated financial statements only if it controlled the entity through
voting interests. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply immediately to
variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003, and to older
entities, in the first fiscal year or interim period ending after December 15,
2003. The general partners believe adoption of this standard may result in
either consolidation or additional disclosure requirements of the Partnership's
unconsolidated joint ventures, which are currently accounted for under the
equity method. However, such consolidation is not expected to significantly
impact the Partnership's results of operations.

In May 2003, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 150, "Accounting for
Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and
Equity" ("FAS 150"). FAS 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies
and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both
liabilities and equity. FAS 150 will require issuers to classify certain
financial instruments as liabilities (or assets in some circumstances) that
previously were classified as equity. One requirement of FAS 150 is that
minority interests for majority owned finite lived entities be classified as a
liability and recorded at fair market value. FAS 150 initially applied
immediately to all financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31,
2003, and otherwise was effective at the beginning of the first interim period
beginning after June 15, 2003. Effective October 29, 2003, the FASB deferred
implementation of FAS 150 as it applies to minority interests of finite lived
Partnerships. The deferral of these provisions is expected to remain in effect
while these interests are addressed in either Phase II of the FASB's Liabilities
and Equity project or Phase II of the FASB's Business Combinations project;
therefore, no specific timing for the implementation of these provisions has
been stated. The implementation of the currently effective aspects of FAS 150
did not have an impact on the Partnership's results of operations.


ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable.


ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The general partners maintain a set of disclosure controls and
procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the
Partnership's filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the
Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. The principal executive
and financial officers of the corporate general partner have evaluated the
Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period
covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and have determined that such
disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

There was no change in internal control over financial reporting that
occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or
is reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial
reporting.
