INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
 
To the Board of Directors
Laurel Creek Apartments    
San Luis Obispo, California
 
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Laurel Creek Apartments (A California Limited Partnership) as of December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 and the related statements of operations, and changes in partners' capital, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnerships' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the fmancial position of Laurel Creek Apartments as of December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, and the results of its operations for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
