PART I
Item 1. Business.
General
Patriot Tax Credit Properties L.P. (formerly known as Prudential-Bache Tax
Credit Properties L.P. and herein referred to as the "Registrant"), a Delaware
limited partnership, was formed on May 3, 1989 and will terminate on December
31, 2029 unless terminated sooner under the provisions of the Amended and
Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement"). The
Registrant was formed to invest in low-income, multi-family residential
complexes ("Apartment Complexes" or "Properties") and, to a lesser extent, in
historic apartment complexes undergoing rehabilitation ("Historic Complexes" or
"Properties") through the acquisition of interests (the "Local Partnership
Interests") in local partnerships (the "Local Partnerships") that are the owners
of the Properties. These investments were made with proceeds from the initial
sale of 38,125 Beneficial Unit Certificates ("BUC$"). The Registrant's fiscal
year for tax and financial reporting purposes ends on December 31 and March 31,
respectively.
The primary objectives of the Registrant are to provide the limited partners
with low-income housing tax credits allowed under Section 42 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Housing Tax Credits") over the credit period
for each Property in which the Registrant has invested and to a lesser extent,
historic rehabilitation tax credits allowed under Section 48(g) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Registrant invested only in Local
Partnerships that owned Properties which qualified for Housing Tax Credits. No
properties were acquired from any entity in which Prudential-Bache Properties,
Inc. or any affiliate had an interest. The Registrant's investments are composed
of limited partnership interests in Local Partnerships owning then newly
constructed or existing structures that have undergone substantial
rehabilitation. The Local Partnerships in which the Registrant has invested must
be operated in accordance with the low-income housing rules and regulations to
protect the related tax credits. It is not expected that any of the Local
Partnerships in which the Registrant has invested will generate any significant
cash flow to provide distributions to the limited partners.
The Registrant expects that in order to avoid recapture of Housing Tax Credits,
its holding period with respect to each Local Partnership Interest will be at
least as long as the 15-year compliance period and may be substantially longer.
Each Property in which the Registrant invested is substantially mortgaged.
However, the aggregate indebtedness did not exceed 85% of the appraised fair
market value of any Property at the time of acquisition. The first mortgage
financing encumbering the Properties was arranged by the general partner of the
Local Partnership (the "Local General Partner") owning the Properties prior to
the time the Registrant became a limited partner therein.
The Registrant acquired its Local Partnership Interest in each Local Partnership
by purchasing it directly from the existing limited and/or general partner of
the Local Partnership. In each of the Registrant's investments, the Local
General Partner of the Local Partnership owning the complex was required to
provide personal guarantees and/or establish cash escrows, financial bonds
and/or letters of credit to protect the Registrant against, among other things,
the failure to meet certain operating criteria.
The Registrant is engaged solely in the business of investing in Local
Partnerships that own Properties; therefore, presentation of industry segment
information is not applicable. For more information regarding the Properties,
see Item 2 Properties. For more information regarding
2
the Registrant's operations, see Item 7 Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
One Property had rental income which exceeded 15% of the Registrant's total
revenue. Rental income from Palm Beach Apartments Ltd. ("Summer Creek Villas")
as a percentage of the Registrant's total revenue was 53.45%, 43.8% and 47.5%
during the years ended March 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. In September
1997, the Local General Partner for Summer Creek Villas decided to divide the
apartment complex into two individual entities called the Arbors and the
Crossings.
No single tenant accounted for 10% or more of the Registrant's total revenue for
any of the three years in the period ended March 31, 1998.
General Partner
On October 1, 1997, as part of the settlement of class action litigation known
as Prudential Securities Inc. Limited Partnership Litigation, MDL No. 1005,
Prudential-Bache Properties, Inc. ("PBP") withdrew as the general partner and
transferred its general partner interest in the Partnership to RCC Partners 96,
L.L.C. (the "New GP"), an affiliate of Related Capital Company ("RCC") pursuant
to a purchase agreement dated as of December 19, 1996 among PBP and its
affiliates and RCC ("Purchase Agreement"). Affiliates of RCC have in the past
provided and currently provide services to the Partnership and also serve as
co-general partners of four of the eight Local Partnerships in which the
Partnership has an interest. The Partnership's agreement of limited partnership
(the "Partnership Agreement") was amended to reflect this withdrawal and
admission and authorized PBP to transfer and assign its interest in the
Partnership to the New GP and to withdraw from the Partnership. The terms of the
transaction are more fully described in the Partnership's Information Statement
dated June 18, 1997 (the "Information Statement"), which was previously
distributed to all partners of the Partnership.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, P-B Tax Credit S.L.P. ("PBSLP") withdrew as
special limited partner of each of the Local Partnerships and was replaced by
Independence SLP L.P. (the "New SLP"), an affiliate of RCC. All special limited
partnership interests in the Local Partnerships were transferred to the New SLP.
Also pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Prudential-Bache Investor Services II,
Inc. ("P-B II") withdrew as assignor limited partner of the Partnership and was
replaced by Related Insured BUC$ Associates, Inc., an affiliate of RCC, (the
"New ALP"). All assignor limited partnership interests in the Partnership were
transferred to the New ALP.
The New GP is a Delaware limited liability company which was formed in July
1996, and is owned and controlled by the partners of RCC. The New GP will only
have a specified net worth, if any, as may be necessary for the Partnership to
be treated as a Partnership for federal income tax purposes.
Affiliates of the New GP and RCC have had significant involvement with the
Partnership and the Local Partnerships, of which five are owned by RCC
affiliates. During the acquisition phase of the Partnership's operation, among
other services, affiliates of RCC provided various services to PBP pursuant to a
Real Estate Consulting Services Agreement. These services included the
identification, evaluation, negotiation and closing of certain of the
Partnership's investments for which RCC was paid a portion of the acquisition
fees and expenses paid to PBP.
RCC in the past provided, and will continue to provide ongoing monitoring
services with respect to the Partnership's investments pursuant to the Property
Investment Monitoring Agreement for which RCC in the past received from PBP a
portion of the partnership man-
3
agement fee payable to PBP and an annual expense allowance of up to $1,300 per
site visit (after the initial four site visits).
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the following changes were made to the
Partnership Agreement:
(a) amended to change the name of the Partnership to "Patriot Tax Credit
Properties L.P.", a Delaware Limited Partnership. The Partnership's new place of
business is 625 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10022.
(b) amended to confirm that PBP continues to be party to the indemnification
provisions set forth in the Partnership Agreement.
(c) amended to reflect (1) the reduction in the General Partner's maximum
participating interest in cash flow from 0.5% annually of invested assets to
0.375% annually; (2) the reduction by 50% of the General Partner's residual
interest in the Partnership comprised of (i) subordinated interest in
disposition proceeds and (ii) interest in distributions of sale or refinancing
proceeds; and (3) corresponding reductions in the General Partner's interest in
profits and losses. Finally, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, PBP and PBSLP
forgave all deferred and unpaid fees due to them by the Partnership and the
Local Partnerships. The aggregate amount of such deferred and unpaid fees was
$1,034,498 as of September 30, 1997 and is reflected in the Consolidated
Statement of Changes in Partners' Capital as a capital contribution.
Competition
The General Partner has formed various entities to engage in businesses that may
be competitive with the Registrant.
The Registrant's business is affected by competition to the extent that the
underlying Properties from which it derives tax credits may be subject to
competition relating to rental rates and amenities from comparable neighboring
properties.
Employees
The Registrant has no employees. Management and administrative services for the
Registrant are performed by the General Partner and its affiliates pursuant to
the Partnership Agreement. See Notes 1, 3 and 6 to the consolidated financial
statements set forth in Item 8.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Patriot Tax Credit Properties L.P. (the "Partnership") invested in eight Local
Partnerships that are owners of affordable multi-family residential complexes.
The Local Partnerships are operated in accordance with the rules and regulations
under Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code in order to protect the related
tax credits. The Partnership's primary sources of funds is rental revenues which
are fully utilized at the property level. A working capital reserve ($11,000 at
March 31, 1998) is maintained to fund Partnership level expenses. The
Partnership is dependent upon the support of the General Partner and certain of
its affiliates in order to meet its obligations at the Partnership level. The
General Partner and these affiliates have agreed to continue such support for
the foreseeable future. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, PBP and PBSLP
forgave all deferred and unpaid fees due to them by the Partnership and the
Local Partnerships (see Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements for
further information). The aggregate amount of such deferred and unpaid fees
totaled $1,034,498 and is reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Changes in
Partner's Capital as a capital contribution.
At the Local Partnership level, certain Local General Partners and/or their
affiliates have made guarantees with respect to the Local Partnerships which,
under certain circumstances, require their funding cash flow deficits pursuant
to deficit guaranty agreements. These operating deficit advances do not bear
interest and are repayable by the Local Partnership in accordance with the
respective Local Partnership agreement. As of March 31, 1998, there is still an
operating deficit guaranty agreement in effect at Papillion Heights.
The Summer Creek Villas Local Partnership continues to experience severe cash
flow deficits. The maximum funding obligation of the Local General Partner for
the initial guaranty period under the Summer Creek Villas operating deficit
guaranty agreement (which expired on December 31, 1996) was $3,392,000, of which
$2,742,460 was funded. Of the total funded, the Local General Partner has
elected to treat $1,933,000 as non-repayable advances. The Local General Partner
is also obligated to fund operating deficits during a second guaranty period
which commenced August 1996 and expires July 1999. The maximum funding
obligation during this second guaranty period is $924,000. Through March 31,
1998, the entire obligation has been funded pursuant to this second guaranty
period. As of March 31, 1998, the financial statements of the Partnership
include $809,460 as "Due to general partners and affiliates of local
partnerships" for the two guaranty periods under the Summer Creek Villas
operating deficit guaranty agreement due to the three-month lag in recording the
financial information of the Local Partnerships. The Local General Partner is
currently reviewing different alternatives to improve property cash flow and
reduce operating deficits. Also the management agent has been replaced so as to
implement a new strategy for increasing property performance.
The Papillion Heights operating deficit guaranty agreement is in effect until
such date that the net operating income is sufficient to cover 115% of the debt
service for twelve consecutive months, as defined. Of the $170,000 maximum
funding obligation, $40,000 has been funded to date. In addition, the
Partnership's financial statements as of March 31, 1998 also reflect payables of
$150,000 under operating deficit guaranty agreements at Hubbard's Ridge and Hill
Top Homes, which have expired.
The Local Partnerships have generated net operating income before debt service
of $4,182,000 $4,489,000 and $4,816,000 for each of the three years ended March
31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Debt service payments (interest and
principal) made during the same periods were $4,752,000, $4,425,000 and
$4,468,000, respectively.

Capital Improvements
To better market the property, the Local General Partner for Summer Creek Villas
has decided to divide the apartment complex into two individual entities called
the Arbors and the Crossings. Of the total of 770 units in the complex, the
Arbors has 362 apartments and the Crossings has 408 apartments. In addition to
splitting the property in two phases, other improvements have primarily
consisted of painting and pressure cleaning of roofs, landscaping and individual
unit upgrades. Capital improvements at Summer Creek Villas have amounted to
approximately $423,000 through March 31, 1998. A portion of these capitalized
costs were funded through operating deficit guaranty funding obligations of the
Local General Partner. The remainder of these capitalized costs will be funded
by the Local General Partner through additional loans to the Local Partnership.
Results of Operations
The operating results of the Local Partnerships consolidated herein are for the
twelve-month periods ended December 31. Information disclosed below with respect
to each Local Partnership is consistent with this method.
Fiscal 1998 vs. Fiscal 1997
Rental income decreased approximately $522,000 for the year ended March 31, 1998
as compared to 1997 primarily due to decreases of $452,000, $42,000 and $63,000
at Summer Creek Villas, Cutler Canal II and RMB, respectively, due to lower
occupancies.
Other income (consisting primarily of application fees, forfeited security
deposits and operating deficit guarantees) increased approximately $264,000 for
the year ended March 31, 1998 as compared to 1997. The variance was mainly due
to the election by the Summer Creek Villas Local General Partner to treat
$1,000,000 and $678,000 of the operating deficit guaranty payments it made to
the Local Partnership for the years ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively,
as non-repayable advances. These amounts were recorded on the financial
statements as other income during the respective years.
General and administrative expenses increased approximately $426,000 for the
year ended March 31, 1998 as compared to 1997 primarily due to increases at
Cutler Canal II, Summer Creek Villas and Hill Top Homes of $81,000, $242,000 and
$61,000, respectively, as a result of increases in salaries, advertising and
office supplies.
Property management fees decreased approximately $97,000 for the year ended
March 31, 1998 as compared to 1997 primarily due to a change in the managing
agent during May 1997 at Summer Creek Villas resulting in a decrease in fees.
Fiscal 1997 vs. Fiscal 1996
Rental income decreased approximately $316,000 for the year ended March 31, 1997
as compared to 1996 primarily due to decreases of $225,000, $66,000 and $41,000
at Summer Creek Villas, Cutler Canal II and Diamond Street, respectively, due to
lower occupancies.
Other income (consisting primarily of application fees, forfeited security
deposits and operating deficit guarantees) increased approximately $308,000 for
the year ended March 31, 1997 as compared to 1996. The variance was mainly due
to the election by the Summer Creek Villas Local General Partner to treat
$678,000 and $255,000 of the operating deficit guaranty payments it made to the
Local Partnership for the years ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively, as
non-repayable advances. These amounts were recorded on the financial statements
as other income during the respective years. This increase was offset by the
decrease in other income at Papillion Heights of $106,000 mainly due to a
$94,000 adjustment recorded in the year ended March 31, 1996 relating to an
operating deficit guaranty agreement.
10
Operating and other expenses increased approximately $95,000 for the year ended
March 31, 1997 as compared to 1996. The variance was primarily due to an
increase of bad debt expense relating to uncollected rents at Summer Creek
Villas.
Repairs and maintenance increased approximately $101,000 for the year ended
March 31, 1997 as compared to 1996 primarily due to increases at Hubbard's
Ridge, Cutler Canal II and Hill Top Homes of $47,000, $30,000 and $18,000,
respectively, as a result of an increase in general maintenance and carpet
replacement costs.
Results of Operation of a Certain Local Partnership
Summer Creek Villas Local Partnership
Summer Creek Villas Local Partnership has experienced declining occupancy levels
over the course of the last few years, which has resulted in recurring losses
from operations and has adversely affected the liquidity of Summer Creek Villas.
In addition to the decline in occupancy levels, the Summer Creek Villas'
operations are further impeded by the inability to raise rents sufficiently to
pay for the increase in operating costs. Summer Creek Villas has been unable to
obtain maximum rents due to the competitive market and the fact that the rents
in the surrounding area are at market rate, competitive to the project. This
problem is further compounded by the increased costs in marketing the property
to effectively compete in the sub market. Further, rent levels are restricted
based on countywide median income levels, which limit the maximum income that a
prospective resident can earn and the maximum rents that the project is allowed
to charge. Summer Creek Villas has been further obligated, beginning in 1996, to
repay significant amounts of principal on its mortgage.
During 1997, in an effort to improve occupancy, the Summer Creek Villas invested
approximately $423,000 to improve the physical condition of the property. Such
improvements primarily consisted of painting and pressure cleaning of roofs,
splitting the property in two phases with separate club houses and leasing
offices, landscaping and individual unit upgrades.
Through a portion of 1997, the Local General Partner has been obligated to fund
operating deficits under two separate operating deficit guaranty agreements.
Total advances made by the Local General Partner under the operating deficit
guarantees totaled $2,742,460. In addition, the Local General Partner has made
voluntary loans in excess of its obligations under the guarantees to fund
operations of $668,589. As of March 31, 1998, the Local General Partner is no
longer required to fund operations of Summer Creek Villas.
The Local General Partner plans to attempt a restructuring of Summer Creek
Villas' debt, and is also exploring the possibility of raising additional
capital. However, as of March 31, 1998, no definitive agreements have been

Year 2000 Compliance
As the year 2000 approaches, an issue has emerged regarding how existing
application software programs and operating systems can accommodate this date
value. Failure to adequately address this issue could have potentially serious
repercussions. The General Partner is in the process of working with the
Partnership's service providers to prepare for the year 2000. Based on
information currently available, the Partnership does not expect that it will
incur significant operating expenses or be required to incur material costs to
be year 2000 compliant.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Partners of
Patriot Tax Credit Properties L.P.
(formerly known as Prudential-Bache Tax Credit Properties L.P.)
(A Delaware Limited Partnership)
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition
of Patriot Tax Credit Properties L.P. and Subsidiaries as of March 31, 1998 and
1997 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in partners'
capital and cash flows for the years ended March 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996. These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of the
consolidated subsidiaries, which statements reflect total assets of $68,716,116
and $70,274,405 as of March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and total revenues
of $9,563,471, $9,809,626 and $9,821,070 for the years ended March 31, 1998,
1997 and 1996, respectively. These statements were audited by other auditors
whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it
relates to the amounts included for the consolidated subsidiaries, is based
solely on the reports of the other auditors.
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 consolidated financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and
the reports of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors, the
consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Patriot Tax Credit Properties L.P.
and Subsidiaries at March 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of their operations
and their cash flows for the years ended March 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
The auditors' report on the 1997 financial statements of a subsidiary included
an explanatory paragraph describing conditions that raised substantial doubt
regarding its ability to continue as a going concern, as discussed in Note 8 to
the consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1998
NOTE 1 - General
Patriot Tax Credit Properties L.P. (formerly known as Prudential-Bache Tax
Credit Properties L.P.), a Delaware limited partnership (the "Partnership"), was
formed on May 3, 1989, and will terminate on December 31, 2029, unless
terminated sooner under the provisions of the Amended and Restated Agreement of
Limited Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement"). The Partnership was formed to
invest as a limited partner in other partnerships ("Local Partnerships" or
"subsidiaries") owning apartment complexes ("Apartment Complexes" or
"Properties") that are eligible for the low-income housing tax credit or the
historic rehabilitation tax credit. The general partner of the Partnership, from
inception to September 30, 1997, Prudential-Bache Properties, Inc. (the "General
Partner" or "PBP"), is not affiliated with a general partner of any Local
Partnership ("Local General Partner"). P.B. Tax Credit S.L.P. ("PBSLP"), an
affiliate of PBP, acted as special limited partner of each Local Partnership
entitling it to certain rights with respect to the operation and management of
each Local Partnership. At March 31, 1998, the Partnership has investments in
eight Local Partnerships.
On October 1, 1997, as part of the settlement of class action litigation known
as Prudential Securities Inc. Limited Partnership Litigation, MDL No. 1005, PBP
withdrew as the General Partner and transferred its general partner interest in
the Partnership to RCC Partners 96, L.L.C. (the "New GP" or "General Partner"),
an affiliate of Related Capital Company ("RCC") pursuant to a purchase agreement
dated as of December 19, 1996 among PBP and its affiliates and RCC ("Purchase
Agreement"). Affiliates of RCC have in the past provided and currently provide
services to the Partnership and also serve as co-general partners of five of the
eight Local Partnerships in which the Partnership has an interest. The
Partnership's agreement of limited partnership (the "Partnership Agreement") was
amended to reflect this withdrawal and admission and authorized PBP to transfer
and assign its interest in the Partnership to the New GP and to withdraw from
the Partnership. The terms of the transaction are more fully described in the
Partnership's Information Statement dated June 18, 1997 (the "Information
Statement"), which was previously distributed to all partners of the
Partnership.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, PBSLP withdrew as special limited partner of
each of the Local Partnerships and was replaced by Independence SLP L.P. (the
"New SLP"), an affiliate of RCC. All special limited partnership interests in
the Local Partnerships were transferred to the New SLP. Also pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement, Prudential-Bache Investor Services II, Inc. ("P-B II")
withdrew as assignor limited partner of the Partnership and was replaced by
Related Insured BUC$ Associates, Inc., an affiliate of RCC, (the "New ALP"). All
assignor limited partnership interests in the Partnership were transferred to
the New ALP.
The New GP is a Delaware limited liability company which was formed in July
1996, and is owned and controlled by the partners of RCC. The New GP will only
have a specified net worth, if any, as may be necessary for the Partnership to
be treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes.
Affiliates of the New GP and RCC have had significant involvement with the
Partnership and the Local Partnerships, of which five are owned by RCC
affiliates. During the acquisition phase of the Partnership's operation, among
other services, affiliates of RCC provided various services to PBP pursuant to a
Real Estate Consulting Services Agreement. These services included the
identification, evaluation, negotiation and closing of certain of the
Partnership's
20

AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

investments for which RCC was paid a portion of the acquisition fees and
expenses paid to PBP.
RCC in the past provided, and will continue to provide ongoing monitoring
services with respect to the Partnership's investments pursuant to the Property
Investment Monitoring Agreement for which RCC in the past received from PBP a
portion of the partnership management fee payable to PBP and an annual expense
allowance of up to $1,300 per site visit (after the initial four site visits).
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the following changes were made to the
Partnership Agreement:
(a) amended to change the name of the Partnership to "Patriot Tax Credit
Properties L.P.", a Delaware Limited Partnership.
(b) amended to confirm that PBP continues to be party to the indemnification
provisions set forth in the Partnership Agreement.
(c) amended to reflect (1) the reduction in the General Partner's maximum
participating interest in cash flow from 0.5% annually of invested assets to
0.375% annually; (2) the reduction by 50% of the General Partner's residual
interest in the Partnership comprised of (i) subordinated interest in
disposition proceeds and (ii) interest in distributions of sale or refinancing
proceeds; and (3) the reduction by 50% of the General Partner's interest in
profits and losses. Finally, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, PBP and PBSLP
forgave all deferred and unpaid fees due to them by the Partnership and the
Local Partnerships. The aggregate amount of such deferred and unpaid fees was
$1,034,498 as of September 30, 1997 and is reflected in the Consolidated
Statement of Changes in Partners' Capital as a capital contribution.
NOTE 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a) Basis of Accounting and Principles of Consolidation
The books and records of the Partnership are maintained on the accrual basis of
accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires the General Partner to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
All subsidiaries have fiscal years ending December 31. Intercompany transactions
have been eliminated.
Minority interest in local partnerships represents the minority partners' share
of the net assets of the Local Partnerships.
Certain balances for prior years have been reclassified to conform with the
current year's financial statement presentation.

PATRIOT TAX CREDIT PROPERTIES L.P.
(a limited partnership)
AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1998
b) Investment in Property
The impairment of properties to be held and used is determined to exist when
estimated amounts recoverable through future operations on an undiscounted basis
are below the properties' carrying value. If a property is determined to be
impaired, it is recorded at the lower of its carrying value or its estimated
fair value.
The determination of estimated fair value is based not only upon future cash
flows, which rely upon estimates and assumptions including expense growth,
occupancy and rental rates, and tax credits, but also upon market capitalization
and discount rates as well as other market indicators. The General Partner
believes that the estimates and assumptions used are appropriate in evaluating
the carrying amount of the Partnership's properties. However, changes in market
conditions and circumstances may occur in the near term which would cause these
estimates and assumptions to change, which, in turn, could cause the amounts
ultimately realized upon the sale or other disposition of the properties to
differ materially from their estimated fair value. Such changes may also require
write-downs in future years.
The cost of buildings and improvements is depreciated using the straight-line
method over their estimated useful lives which range from 27.5 to 40 years.
c) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include money market funds whose cost approximates
market value.
d) Cash and Cash Equivalents Held in Escrow
Cash and cash equivalents held in escrow include restricted funds held for
payment of real estate taxes and insurance, tenant security deposits and
replacement reserves.
e) Taxes
The Partnership is not required to provide for, or pay, any Federal or state
income taxes. Income tax attributes that arise from its operations are passed
directly to the partners. The Partnership may be subject to other state and
local taxes in jurisdictions in which it operates. For income tax purposes, the
Partnership's year ends on December 31.
f) Profits and Loss Allocations/Distributions
Net income or loss was allocated 99% to the limited partners and 1% to the
General Partner through September 30, 1997. As of October 1, 1997 net income or
loss is allocated 99.5% to the limited partners and .5% to the General Partner.
Distributions of cash may be made in accordance with the Partnership Agreement
and, if made, are allocated, as of October 1, 1997, 99.5% to the limited
partners and .5% to the General Partner. As of March 31, 1998, no distributions
have been paid.

MARCH 31, 1998
g) Operating Deficit Guarantees
Pursuant to certain operating deficit guaranty agreements, Local General
Partners are required to fund operating deficits, as defined in the Local
Partnership agreements incurred during the period commencing with the break-even
date, as defined in the Local Partnership agreements, and ending on the third
anniversary of the break-even date. These advances are non-interest bearing.
NOTE 3 - Costs, Fees and Expenses
a) Deferred Financing Costs
Deferred financing costs include amounts paid for services rendered in arranging
the financing for the Local Partnerships. These costs were capitalized and are
being amortized over the lives of the related debt. The accumulated amortization
as of March 31, 1998 and 1997 is $2,369,511 and $2,094,056, respectively.
b) Management Fees
Each individual property has a managing agent who performs the necessary
functions in operating the property. The property management fee is equal to a
percentage of the annual gross revenues of a property paid in consideration of
the property management services provided (See Note 7).
The General Partner was entitled to receive a management fee, payable from
operations and reserves, in an amount not to exceed the difference between .5%
per annum of Invested Assets (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) and the
local administrative fee payable to PBSLP through September 30, 1997. As of
October 1, 1997 the limitation amount for the management fee was reduced from
.5% annually to 0.375% annually. This management fee is for administering the
affairs of the Partnership (See Note 6). Unpaid portions of the management fee
for any year accrue without interest.
c) General and Administrative
The Partnership reimburses the General Partner and its affiliates for actual
Partnership operating expenses payable by or allocable to the Partnership (See
Note 6). The Partnership also pays amounts directly to unrelated third parties
for certain operating expenses.

NOTE 5 - Mortgage Notes Payable
Mortgage notes are collateralized (on a recourse basis) by land, buildings and
improvements and leases related thereto. Annual principal payment requirements
for each of the next five years ending December 31, the date at which the Local
Partnerships are consolidated, and thereafter are as follows:
Amount
----------
1998 $ 507,689
1999 558,840
2000 615,122
2001 678,063
2002 746,239
Thereafter 42,526,898
----------
$45,632,851
Mortgage notes consist of both first mortgages and support loans (second and
third mortgages). First mortgages amounting to $40,692,851 bear interest at
rates ranging from 0% to 10.5% and have final maturities ranging from December
1, 2006 to May 1, 2031. First mortgages include $26,750,000 in the form of a
guaranteed bond bearing interest at 10.451% (including a .125% service fee
payable to an affiliate of the Local General Partner) maturing on June 20, 2008.
The support loans include two loans totaling $2,440,000 maturing on May 1, 2016
and December 15, 2029, the latter of which bears interest at 1%, and the former
being non-interest bearing, and a $2,500,000 loan bearing interest at a maximum
rate of 9% and maturing on January 16, 2005. The $2,500,000 loan includes a base
interest rate of 3% and an additional interest rate of 6%. The base interest
rate is payable annually from Project Income, as defined in the loan agreement,
and can be deferred if Project Income is inadequate. The additional interest is
payable from Project Income, if available, and only after payment of a
cumulative annual 12% return on capital to the limited partners of the Local
Partnership. Currently, only the base interest rate is being paid; however, the
additional interest of 6% continues to be accrued in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements.
At March 31, 1998 and 1997, the estimated fair values of the mortgage notes
payable were approximately $48,473,000 and $51,700,000, respectively. These
estimates were based upon the present value of expected cash flows discounted at
rates currently available to the Local Partnerships for similar loans. Fair
value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market
information, and are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters
of significant judgment. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not
necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Local Partnerships would pay upon
maturity or disposition of the loans.
NOTE 6 - Related Parties
During their respective ownership periods, the General Partners and their

would otherwise be payable to the New GP pursuant to the terms of the
Partnership Agreement. These services terminated March 31, 1998. The costs and

$104,400 of general and administrative fees that had been deferred since April
1, 1996. PBSLP, an affiliate of PBP, acting as a special limited partner for

NOTE 8 - Commitments and Contingencies
Subsidiary Partnership - Going Concern
Summer Creek Villas Local Partnership
Summer Creek Villas Local Partnership has experienced declining occupancy levels
over the course of the last few years, which has resulted in recurring losses
from operations and has adversely affected the liquidity of Summer Creek Villas.
In addition to the decline in occupancy levels, the Summer Creek Villas'
operations are further impeded by the inability to raise rents sufficiently to
pay for the increase in operating costs. Summer Creek Villas has been unable to
obtain maximum rents due to the competitive market and the fact that the rents
in the surrounding area are at market rate, competitive to the project. This
problem is further compounded by the increased costs in marketing the property
to effectively compete in the sub market. Further, rent levels are restricted
based on countywide median income levels, which limit the maximum income that a
prospective resident can earn and the maximum rents

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1998
that the project is allowed to charge. Summer Creek Villas has been further
obligated, beginning in 1996, to repay significant amounts of principal on its
mortgage.
During 1997, in an effort to improve occupancy, the Summer Creek Villas invested
approximately $423,000 to improve the physical condition of the property. Such
improvements primarily consisted of painting and pressure cleaning of roofs,
splitting the property in two phases with separate club houses and leasing
offices, landscaping and individual unit upgrades.
Through a portion of 1997, the Local General Partner has been obligated to fund
operating deficits under two separate operating deficit guaranty agreements.
Total advances made by the Local General Partner under the operating deficit
guarantees totaled $2,742,460. In addition, the Local General Partner has made
voluntary loans in excess of its obligations under the guarantees to fund
operations of $668,589. As of March 31, 1998, the Local General Partner is no
longer required to fund operations of Summer Creek Villas.
The Local General Partner plans to attempt a restructuring of Summer Creek
Villas' debt, and is also exploring the possibility of raising additional
capital. However, as of March 31, 1998, no definitive agreements have been
reached regarding these plans.
As of March 31, 1998, the consolidated financial statements include total assets
of $36,986,624, total liabilities of $29,291,620 and a minority interest of
$2,675,515 attributable to this subsidiary.
Summer Creek Villas' ability to continue its operations is dependent upon
management achieving the plans described in the foregoing paragraphs. The
accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Any adjustments would be
limited solely to this subsidiary's financial statements included herein.
