Employees
- - ---------
The Partnership has no direct employees. The employees of Wells Capital, Inc.,
the sole general partner of Wells Partners, L.P., a General Partner, perform a
full range of real estate services including leasing and property management,
accounting, asset management and investor relations for the Partnership. See
Item 11 - "Compensation of General Partners and Affiliates," for a summary of
the fees paid to the General Partners and their affiliates during the fiscal
year ended December 31, 1998.
Insurance
- - ---------
Wells Management Company, Inc., an affiliate of the General Partner, carries
comprehensive liability and extended coverage with respect to all the properties
owned directly or indirectly by the Partnership. In the opinion of management
of the registrant, the properties are adequately insured.
Competition
- - -----------
The Partnership will experience competition for tenants from owners and managers
of competing projects which may include the general partners and their
affiliates. As a result, the Partnership may be required to provide free rent,
reduced charges for tenant improvements and other inducements, all of which may
have an adverse impact on results of operations. At the time the Partnership
elects to dispose of its properties, the Partnership will also be in competition
with sellers of similar properties to locate suitable purchasers for its
properties.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.
- - -------------------
The Partnership owns interests in nine properties through its ownership in joint
ventures of which three are office buildings and six are retail centers. The

joint ventures is recorded on the equity method. As of December 31, 1998, the
properties had an occupancy rate of 95.65%. As of December 31, 1997, the seven

tenants, including Kroger. Kroger, a retail grocery chain, is the only tenant
occupying ten percent or more of the rentable square footage. The other tenants
in the shopping center provide typical retail shopping services.
The Kroger lease provides for an annual rent of $392,915 which increased to
$589,102 on August 16, 1995 due to the expansion from 45,528 square feet to
67,115 square feet. The lease expires March 31, 2011 with Kroger entitled to
five successive renewals each for a term of five years at the same rental rate
as the original lease.

PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR PARTNERSHIP'S UNITS AND RELATED SECURITY HOLDER MATTERS
- - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The offering for sale of Units in the Partnership terminated on January 5, 1995,
at which time the Partnership had 1,678,810 outstanding Class A Units held by a
total of 1,590 Limited Partners and 739,208 outstanding Class B Units held by a
total of 320 Limited Partners. The capital contribution per unit is $10.00.
There is no established public trading market for the Partnership's limited
partnership units, and it is not anticipated that a public trading market for
the units will develop. Under the Partnership Agreement, the General Partners
have the right to prohibit transfers of units.
As of February 28, 1999, the Partnership had 2,009,516 outstanding Class A
Status Units held by a total of 1,648 Limited Partners and 408,500 of Class B
Status held by a total of 259 Limited Partners. There is no established public
trading for the Partnership's limited partnership units, and it is not
anticipated that a public trading market for the units will develop. Under the
Partnership Agreement, the General Partners have the right to prohibit transfers
of units.
The General Partners have estimated the investment value of properties held by
the Partnership as of December 31, 1998 to be $10.72 per A unit and 13.28 per B
Unit based on market conditions existing in early December, 1998. This value
was confirmed as reasonable by an independent MAI appraiser, David L. Beal
Company, although no actual MAI appraisal was performed due to the inordinate
expense involved with such an undertaking. The valuation does not include any
fractional interest valuation.
Cash distribution from Net Cash from Operations are distributed to the Limited
Partners on a quarterly basis unless Limited Partners elect to have their cash
distributions paid monthly. Net Cash from Operations is defined in the
Partnership Agreement as Cash Flow less adequate cash reserves for other
obligations of the Partnership for which there is no provision. Under the
Partnership Agreement, distributions are allocated first to the Limited Partners
holding Class A Units (and limited partners holding Class B Units that have
elected a conversion right that allows them to share in the distribution rights
of limited partners holding Class A Units) until they have received 10% of their
adjusted capital contributions, as defined. Cash available for distribution is
then distributed to the General Partners until they have received an amount
equal to 10% of cash distributions. Any remaining cash available for
distribution is split between the Limited Partners holding Class A Units and the
General Partners in a ratio of 90% and 10% respectively. No distributions will
be made to the Limited Partners holding Class B Units. Holders of Class A Units
will, except in limited circumstances, be allocated none of the Partnership's
Net Loss, depreciation, amortization and cost recovery deductions. These
deductions will be allocated to Class B Units until their Capital account
balances have been reduced to zero.
No distributions have been made to the General Partner as of December 31, 1998.
Cash distributions made to Limited Partners holding Class A Units (and Limited
Partners holding Class B Units that have elected a conversion right) during 1998
and 1997 were as follows:
11
Per Class A Per Class A Per Class B
Distributions for Total Cash Unit Investment Unit Return Unit Return

December 31, 1997 $404,130 $0.21 $0.00 $0.00
The fourth quarter distribution was accrued for accounting purposes in 1998, and
was not actually paid to Limited Partners holding Class A Units until February
1999. The General Partners anticipate that cash distributions to Limited
Partners holding Class A units will continue in 1999 at a level at least
comparable with 1998 cash distributions on an annual basis.

Net income has decreased in 1998 as compared to 1997 due primarily to increased
costs for HVAC repairs and various other building expenses. Cash distribution
and net income allocated to be Partnership decreased in 1998 over 1997 levels
due primarily to additional funding by Wells Fund VIII in early 1997, which
decreased to Partnership ownership in the Fund VI-VII-VIII Joint Venture.
Interest income was generated from construction dollars, not as yet funded on
construction, being invested in interest bearing accounts. Since the building
opened in May 1996, comparative income and expense figures for 1996 are not
available.
The BellSouth Property incurred property taxes of $171,629 for 1998, $164,400
for 1997 and $23,234 for 1996, the first year of occupancy.

On May 31, 1995, the Fund VI-VII-VIII Joint Venture purchased a 14.683 acre
tract of real property located in Clemmons, Forsyth County, North Carolina. The
land purchase costs were funded by a capital contribution made by Wells Fund VI.
Total cost and expenses to be incurred by the Fund VI-VII-VIII Joint Venture for
the acquisition, development, construction and completion of the shopping center
were approximately $8,700,000. A strip shopping center containing approximately
67,320 gross square feet opened on the site on February 26, 1997.
In February 1997, Harris Teeter, Inc., a regional supermarket chain, occupied
its leased space of 46,120 square feet with an initial term of 20 years. The
annual base rent during the initial term is $488,250. In addition, Harris
Teeter has agreed to pay percentage rents equal to one percent of the amount by
which Harris Teeter's gross sales exceed $35,000,000 for any lease year.
Tanglewood Commons incurred property taxes of $35,542 for 1998 and $58,466 for
1997, the first year of occupancy. Since this property commenced operations in
February 1997, comparable income and expense figures for prior year are not

Rental income increased in 1998 over 1997 due primarily to a one time adjustment
made to the straight line rent schedule. Rental income decreased in 1997
compared to 1996 due to decreased occupancy at the property for the first three
quarters of 1997. The increase in occupancy in the fourth quarter of 1997 is
due to a new 1,200 square foot lease executed in 1997. Operating expenses of
the property decreased to $84,676 in 1998 from $138,294 in 1997, and decreased
from $180,841 in 1996. The decrease in operating expense in 1998 as compared to
1997 is due to decreased expenditures for tenant improvements, common area
expenses and legal fees. The decrease in operating expenses in 1997 as compared
to 1996 is due to a change in estimate in billing of common and maintenance
charges and property taxes which was partially offset by increases in plumbing
repairs and contract labor expenses. Net income of the property increased to
$298,062 in 1998 and decreased to $223,497 in 1997 from $231,882 in 1996, due to
the reasons discussed above.
Real estate taxes were $ 77,311 for 1998, $67,259 for 1997 and $63,696 for 1996.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- - -------------------------------
On April 5, 1994, the Partnership commenced an offering of up to $25,000,000 of
Class A or Class B Limited Partnership Units ($10.00 per unit) pursuant to a
Registration Statement on Form S-11 filed under the Securities Act of 1933. The
offering was terminated on January 5, 1995, at which time the Partnership had
sold 1,678,810 Class A Units and 739,208 Class B Units, held by a total of 1,591
and 319 Limited Partners respectively, for total Limited Partner capital
contributions of $24,180,174. After payment of $846,306 in acquisition and
expense fees, payment of $3,627,026 in selling commissions and organization and
offering expenses and the investment of the Partnership of $3,356,278 in the
Fund VI-Fund VII Joint Venture, $3,470,958 in the Fund V-VI-VII Joint Venture,
$2,448,923 in the Fund VII-Fund VIII Joint Venture, 5,932,312 in the Fund VI-
VII-VIII Joint Venture, $953,798 in the Fund I-II-II-OW-VI-VII Joint Venture,
$3,300,225 in the Fund II-III-VI-VII Joint Venture, $2,547 in other acquisition
expenses, and $55,772 of amounts previously being held as working capital
reserves, the Partnership is holding a balance of $186,030 as working reserves.
Of the original working capital reserves of $241,802, the Partnership has
contributed $11,205 to the Fund VI - Fund VII Joint Venture and $44,567 to the
Fund II-III-VI-VII Joint Venture leaving the $186,030 balance shown above. It
is anticipated that the remaining cost to complete the Holcomb Bridge Road
Project of approximately $66,000 will be funded from reserves of the Partnership
and Wells Fund VI.
Pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership is required
to maintain working capital reserves in an amount equal to the cash operating
expenses required to operate the Partnership for a six-month period not to be
reduced below 1% of Limited Partners' capital contributions. As set forth
above, in order to fund a portion of Holcomb Bridge Road Property and
Stockbridge Village III Project, the General Partners have used a portion of the
Partnership's working capital reserves to reduce the balance below this minimum
amount, rather than funding the tenant improvements out of operating cash flow,
which would have the effect of reducing cash flow distributions to Limited
Partners.
Net cash provided by operating activities in the amount of approximately $43,000
in 1997 decreased in 1998 to approximately $72,194 used in operating activities
due primarily to the decrease in interest income which resulted from expending
remaining funds on joint ventures as discussed above.
Net cash provided by investing activities increased in 1998 compared to 1997 due
primarily to the increase in the distributions from joint ventures coupled with
the decrease in investments in joint ventures. The increase in net cash used in
financing activities in 1998 compared to 1997 is the result of the increase in
distributions to partners. Cash and cash equivalents have decreased from
$366,301 in 1997 to $194,420 in 1998, and from $1,114,066 in 1996 to $366,301 in
1997 due primarily to investments made in joint ventures in 1996 and 1997.
The Partnership expects to continue to meet its short-term liquidity
requirements and budget demands generally through net cash provided by
operations which the Partnership believes will continue to be adequate to meet
both operating requirements and distributions to limited partners. At this
time, given the nature of the joint ventures in which the Partnership has
invested, there are
23
no known improvements and renovations to the properties expected to be funded
from cash flow from operations.
Since properties are acquired on an all-cash basis, the Partnership has no
permanent long-term liquidity requirements.
Cash distributions of $0.82 per weighted average Unit were made to Class A
Limited Partners for the year ended December 31, 1998. The Partnership's
distributions for the fourth quarter of 1998 will be paid in February 1999 from
Net Cash from Operations. The Partnership anticipates that distributions will
continue to be paid on a quarterly basis from such sources on a level at least
consistent with 1998.
The Partnership is unaware of any known demands, commitments, events or capital
expenditures other than that which is required for the normal operations of its
properties that will result in the Partnership's liquidity increasing or
decreasing in any material way. The Partnership intends to fund any cash
requirements through operating cash flow.
Inflation
- - ---------
Real estate has not been affected significantly by inflation in the past three
years due to the relatively low inflation rate. It is common practice for the
Partnership to execute provisions in the majority of tenant leases to protect
the Partnership from the impact of inflation. These leases contain common area
maintenance charges (CAM charges), real estate tax and insurance reimbursements
on a per square foot basis, or in some cases, annual reimbursement of operating
expenses above a certain per square foot allowance. These provisions should
reduce the Partnership's exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses
resulting from inflation. In addition, a number of the Partnership's leases are
for terms of less than five years which may permit the Partnership to replace
existing leases with new leases at higher base rental rates if the existing
leases are below market rate. There is no assurance, however, that the
Partnership would be able to replace existing leases with new leases at higher
base rentals.
Year 2000
- - ---------
The Partnership is presently reviewing the potential impact of Year 2000
compliance issues on its information systems and business operations. A full
assessment of Year 2000 compliance issues was begun in late 1997 and is expected
to be completed by March 31, 1999. Renovations and replacements of equipment
have been and are being made as warranted as the assessment progresses. The
costs incurred by the Partnership and its affiliates thus far for renovations
and replacements have been immaterial. Some testing of systems has begun and
all testing is expected to be complete by June 30, 1999.
As to the status of the Partnership's information technology systems, it is
presently believed that all major systems and software packages with the
exception of the accounting and property management package are Year 2000
compliant. The Partnership's affiliated entities are purchasing the upgrade for
the accounting and property management package system; however, it is not slated
to be available until the end of the first quarter of 1999. At the present
time, it is believed that all major
24
non-information technology systems are Year 2000 compliant. The cost to upgrade
any non-compliant systems is believed to be immaterial.
The Partnership is in the process of confirming with the Partnership's
vendors, including third-party service providers such as banks, that their
systems will be Year 2000 compliant. Based on the information received thus
far, the primary third-party service providers with which the Partnership has
relationships have confirmed their Year 2000 readiness.
The Partnership relies on computers and operating systems provided by
equipment manufacturers, and also on application software designed for use with
its accounting, property management and investment portfolio tracking. The
Partnership has preliminarily determined that any costs, problems or
uncertainties associated with the potential consequences of Year 2000 issues are
not expected to have a material impact on the future operations or financial
condition of the Partnership. The Partnership will perform due diligence as to
the Year 2000 readiness of each property owned by the Partnership and each
property contemplated for purchase by the Partnership.
The Partnership's reliance on embedded computer systems (i.e.,
microcontrollers) is limited to facilities related matters, such as office
security systems and environmental control systems.
The Partnership is currently formulating contingency plans to cover any
areas of concern. Alternate means of operating the business are being developed
in the unlikely circumstance that the computer and phone systems are rendered
inoperable. An off-site facility from which the Partnership could operate is
being sought as well as alternate means of communication with key third-party
vendors. A written plan is being developed for testing and dispensation to each
staff member of the Advisor of the Partnership.
Management believes that the Partnership's risk of Year 2000 problems is
minimal. In the unlikely event there is a problem, the worst case scenarios
would include the risks that the elevator or security systems within the
Partnership's properties would fail or the key third-party vendors upon which
the Partnership relies would be unable to provide accurate investor information.
In the event that the elevator shuts down, the Partnership has devised a plan
for each building whereby the tenants will use the stairs until the elevators
are fixed. In the event that the security system shuts down, the Partnership
has devised a plan for each building to hire temporary on-site security guards.
In the event that a third-party vendor has Year 2000 problems relating to
investor information, the Partnership intends to perform a full system back-up
of all investor information as of December 31, 1999 so that the Partnership will
have accurate hard-copy investor information.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To Wells Real Estate Fund VII, L.P.:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of WELLS REAL ESTATE FUND VII,
L.P. (a Georgia public limited partnership) as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and
the related statements of income, partners' capital, and cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998. These financial
statements and the schedule referred to below are the responsibility of the
Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and schedule are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Wells Real Estate Fund VII,
L.P. as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the results of its operations and its
cash flows each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998 in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. Schedule III--Real Estate Investments
and Accumulated Depreciation as of December 31, 1998 is presented for purposes
of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and is not part
of the basic financial statements. This schedule has been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and,
in our opinion, fairly states in all material respects the financial data
required to be set forth therein in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole.

WELLS REAL ESTATE FUND VII, L.P.
(A Georgia Public Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1998, 1997 AND 1996
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Business
Wells Real Estate Fund VII, L.P. (the "Partnership") is a public limited
partnership organized on April 5, 1994 under the laws of the state of
Georgia. The general partners are Leo F. Wells, III and Wells Partners, L.P.
("Wells Partners"), a Georgia nonpublic limited partnership. The Partnership
has two classes of limited partnership interests, Class A and Class B units.
Limited partners shall have the right to change their prior elections to have
some or all of their units treated as Class A units or Class B units one time
during each quarterly accounting period. Limited partners may vote to, among
other things, (a) amend the partnership agreement, subject to certain
limitations, (b) change the business purpose or investment objectives of the
Partnership, and (c) remove a general partner. A majority vote on any of the
above described matters will bind the Partnership, without the concurrence of
the general partners. Each limited partnership unit has equal voting rights,
regardless of class.
The Partnership was formed to acquire and operate commercial real properties,
including properties which are either to be developed, currently under
development or construction, newly constructed, or have operating histories.
The Partnership owns an interest in the following properties through joint
ventures between the Partnership and other Wells Real Estate Funds: (i) a
shopping center located in Cherokee County, Georgia, the Cherokee Commons
Shopping Center ("Cherokee Commons"); (ii) an office/retail center in
Roswell, Georgia; (iii) the Marathon Building, a three-story office building
located in Appleton, Wisconsin; (iv) the Stockbridge Village III Retail
Center, two retail buildings located in Stockbridge, Georgia; (v) a retail
center expansion in Stockbridge, Georgia; (vi) a four-story office building
located in Jacksonville, Florida ("the BellSouth property"); (vii) a retail
shopping center in Clemmon, Forsyth County, North Carolina; (viii) an office
building located in Gainesville, Florida; and (ix) a retail office building
in Stockbridge, Georgia.
Use of Estimates and Factors Affecting the Partnership
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
F-7
The carrying values of the real estate assets are based on management's
current intent to hold the real estate assets as long-term investments. The
success of the Partnership's future operations and the ability to realize the
investment in its assets will be dependent on the Partnership's ability to
maintain rental rates, occupancy, and an appropriate level of operating
expenses in future years. Management believes that the steps it is taking
will enable the Partnership to realize its investment in its assets.
Income Taxes
The Partnership is not subject to federal or state income taxes, and
therefore, none have been provided for in the accompanying financial
statements. The partners are required to include their respective shares of
profits and losses in their individual income tax returns.
Distribution of Net Cash From Operations
Cash available for distribution, as defined by the partnership agreement, is
distributed to the limited partners quarterly. In accordance with the
partnership agreement, distributions are paid first to limited partners
holding Class A units until they have received a 10% per annum return on
their adjusted capital contributions, as defined. Cash available for
distribution is then paid to the general partners until they have received an
amount equal to 10% of distributions. Any remaining cash available for
distribution is split between the limited partners holding Class A units and
the general partners on a basis of 90% and 10%, respectively. No
distributions will be made to the limited partners holding Class B units.
Distribution of Sales Proceeds
Upon sales of properties, the net sales proceeds are distributed in the
following order:
. To limited partners, on a per unit basis, until all limited
partners have received 100% of their adjusted capital
contributions, as defined
. To limited partners holding Class B units until they receive an
amount equal to the net cash available for distribution received by
the limited partners holding Class A units
. To all limited partners until they receive a cumulative 10% per
annum return on their adjusted capital contributions, as defined
. To all limited partners until they receive an amount equal to their
respective cumulative distributions, as defined
. To the general partners until they have received 100% of their
capital contributions, as defined
. Thereafter, 80% to the limited partners and 20% to the general
partners
F-8
Allocation of Net Income, Net Loss, and Gain on Sale
Net income is defined as net income recognized by the Partnership, excluding
deductions for depreciation and amortization. Net income, as defined, of the
Partnership will be allocated each year in the same proportions that net cash
from operations is distributed to the partners. To the extent the
Partnership's net income in any year exceeds net cash from operations, it
will be allocated 99% to the limited partners holding Class A units and 1% to
the general partners.
Net loss, depreciation, and amortization deductions for each fiscal year will
be allocated as follows: (a) 99% to the limited partners holding Class B
units and 1% to the general partners until their capital accounts are reduced
to zero, (b) then to any partner having a positive balance in his capital
account in an amount not to exceed such positive balance, and (c) thereafter
to the general partners.
Gain on the sale or exchange of the Partnership's properties will be
allocated generally in the same manner that the net proceeds from such sale
are distributed to partners after the following allocations are made, if
applicable: (a) allocations made pursuant to a qualified income offset
provision in the partnership agreement, (b) allocations to partners having
negative capital accounts until all negative capital accounts have been
restored to zero, (c) allocations to Class B limited partners in amounts
equal to deductions for depreciation and amortization previously allocated to
them with respect to the specific partnership property sold, but not in
excess of the amount of gain on sale recognized by the Partnership with
respect to the sale of such property, and (d) allocations to Class A limited
partners and general partners in amounts equal to the deductions for
depreciation and amortization previously allocated to them with respect to
the specific partnership property sold, but not in excess of the amount of
gain on sale recognized by the Partnership with respect to the sale of such
property.
Investment in Joint Ventures
Basis of Presentation. The Partnership does not have control over the
operations of the joint ventures; however, it does exercise significant
influence. Accordingly, investments in joint ventures are recorded using the
equity method of accounting.
Real Estate Assets. Real estate assets held by the joint ventures are stated
at cost less accumulated depreciation. Major improvements and betterments
are capitalized when they extend the useful life of the related asset. All
repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.
Management continually monitors events and changes in circumstances which
could indicate that carrying amounts of real estate assets may not be
recoverable. When events or changes in circumstances are present which
indicate that the carrying amounts of real estate assets may not be
recoverable, management assesses the recoverability of real estate assets by
determining whether the carrying value of such real estate assets will be
recovered through the future cash flows expected from the use of the asset
and its eventual disposition. Management has determined that there has been
no impairment in the carrying value of real estate assets held by the
Partnership or its affiliated joint ventures as of December 31, 1998.
F-9
Depreciation for buildings and improvements is calculated using the straight-
line method over 25 years.
Revenue Recognition. All leases on real estate assets held by the joint
ventures are classified as operating leases, and the related rental income is
recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases.
Partners' Distributions and Allocations of Profit and Loss. Cash available
for distribution and allocations of profit and loss to the Partnership by the
joint ventures are made in accordance with the terms of the individual joint
venture agreements. Generally, these items are allocated in proportion to
the partners' respective ownership interests. Cash is paid from the joint
ventures to the Partnership quarterly.
Deferred Lease Acquisition Costs. Costs incurred to procure operating leases
are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the
related leases.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Partnership considers
all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three
months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include cash and
short-term investments. Short-term investments are stated at cost, which
approximates fair value, and consist of investments in money market accounts.
Per Unit Data
Net income (loss) per unit with respect to the Partnership for the years
ended December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996 is computed based on the weighted
average number of units outstanding during the period.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current
year financial statement presentation.
2. DEFERRED PROJECT COSTS
The Partnership paid a percentage of limited partner contributions to Wells
Capital, Inc. (the "Company"), the general partner of Wells Partners, for
acquisition and advisory services. These payments, as stipulated by the
partnership agreement, can be up to 6% of the limited partner contributions,
subject to certain overall limitations contained in the partnership
agreement. Aggregate fees paid through December 31, 1998 were $1,358,722 and
amounted to 3.5% of the limited partners' contributions received. These fees
are allocated to specific properties, as they are purchased or developed and
are included in capitalized assets of the joint ventures. All deferred
project costs were applied to properties at December 31, 1998.

3. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Due from affiliates at December 31, 1998 and 1997 represents the
Partnership's share of cash to be distributed from its joint venture
investments for the fourth quarters of 1998 and 1997, respectively, as

Fund II, III, VI, VII Associates 102,908 64,466

Fund VII and VIII Associates 16,354 53,501
-------- --------
$339,387 $416,360
======== ========
The Partnership entered into a property management agreement with Wells
Management Company, Inc. ("Wells Management"), an affiliate of the general
partners. In consideration for supervising the management of the
Partnership's properties, the Partnership will generally pay Wells Management
management and leasing fees equal to (a) 3% of the gross revenues for
management and 3% of the gross revenues for leasing (aggregate maximum of 6%)
plus a separate fee for the one-time initial lease-up of newly constructed
properties in an amount not to exceed the fee customarily charged in arm's-
length transactions by others rendering similar services in the same
geographic area for similar properties or (b) in the case of commercial
properties, which are leased on a long-term net basis (ten or more years), 1%
of the gross revenues except for initial leasing fees equal to 3% of the
gross revenues over the first five years of the lease term.
The Partnership incurred management and leasing fees and lease acquisition
costs, at the joint venture level, of $144,379, $211,201, and $103,785 for
the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively, which were
paid to Wells Management.
The Company performs certain administrative services for the Partnership,
such as accounting and other partnership administration, and incurs the
related expenses. Such expenses are allocated among the various Wells Real
Estate Funds based on time spent on each fund by individual administrative
personnel. In the opinion of management, such allocation is a reasonable
estimation of such expenses.
The general partners are also general partners in other Wells Real Estate
Funds. As such, there may exist conflicts of interest where the general
partners in the capacity as general partners for other Wells Real Estate
Funds may be in competition with the Partnership for tenants in similar
geographic markets.

Fund I, II, II-OW, VI, and VII Associates--Cherokee
In August 1995, the Partnership entered into a joint venture agreement with
Wells Real Estate Fund I, Fund II and II-OW (a joint venture between Wells
Real Estate Fund II and Wells Real Estate Fund II-OW), and Wells Real Estate
Fund VI, L.P. ("Fund VI"). The joint venture, Fund I, II, II-OW, VI, and VII
Associates--Cherokee, was formed for the purpose of owning and operating
Cherokee Commons, a retail shopping center containing approximately 103,755
square feet located in Cherokee County, Georgia. Until the formation of this
joint venture, Cherokee Commons was part of the Fund I and II Tucker--
Cherokee joint venture. Concurrent with the formation of the Fund I, II, II-
OW, VI, and VII Associates--Cherokee joint venture, Cherokee Commons was
transferred from the Fund I and II Tucker--Cherokee joint venture.
Percentage ownership interests in Fund I, II, II-OW, VI, and VII Associates--
Cherokee were determined at the time of formation based on contributions.
Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, Fund VI and Fund VII each
contributed approximately $1 million to the new joint venture in return for a
10.7% ownership interest. Fund I's ownership interest in the Cherokee joint
venture changed from 30.6% to 24%, and Fund II and II-OW joint venture's
ownership interest changed from 69.4% to 54.6%. The $2 million in cash
contributed to Cherokee was used to fund an expansion of the property for an
existing tenant.
