CAPITAL REALTY INVESTORS-IV LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2010 and 2009
(Unaudited)



1.           ORGANIZATION

Capital Realty Investors-IV Limited Partnership (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership which was formed under the Maryland Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act on December 7, 1983.  The Partnership was formed for the purpose of raising capital by offering and selling limited partnership interests and then investing in limited partnerships ("Local Partnerships"), each of which owns and operates an existing rental housing project which was originally financed and/or operated with one or more forms of rental assistance or financial assistance from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD"). The Partnership originally made investments in forty-seven Local Partnerships.  As of September 30, 2010, the Partnership retained investments in six Local Partnerships.

The General Partners of the Partnership are C.R.I., Inc. (CRI), which is the Managing General Partner, and current and former shareholders of CRI.  Services for the Partnership are performed by CRI, as the Partnership has no employees of its own.

2.           BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q.  Certain information and accounting policies and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in conformity with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such instructions.  These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Partnership's annual report on Form 10-K and the amended annual report on Form 10-K/A at December 31, 2009.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of operations to conform to the September 30, 2010 presentation of the components of assets and liabilities held for sale and the results from continuing and discontinued operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010.

In the opinion of C.R.I., Inc., the Managing General Partner, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of Capital Realty Investors-IV Limited Partnership (the Partnership) as of September 30, 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.  The results of operations for the interim period ended September 30, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

3.           INVESTMENTS IN PARTNERSHIPS

At September 30, 2010 and 2009, the Partnership had limited partnership equity interests in six and eight Local Partnerships respectively, each of which owned an apartment complex.

Under the terms of the Partnership's investment in each Local Partnership, the Partnership was required to make capital contributions to the Local Partnerships. These contributions were payable in installments upon each Local Partnership achieving specified levels of construction and/or operations. At September 30, 2010 and 2009, all such capital contributions had been paid to the Local Partnerships.

a.           Summarized financial information

Combined statements of operations for the six and eight Local Partnerships in which the Partnership was invested as of September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, follow.  The combined statements have been compiled from information supplied by the management agents of the properties and are unaudited.  The information for each of the periods is presented separately for those Local Partnerships which have investment basis (equity method), and for those Local Partnerships which have cumulative losses in excess of the amount of the Partnership’s investments in those Local Partnerships (equity method suspended).  Appended after the combined statements is information concerning the Partnership’s share of income from partnerships related to cash distributions recorded as income, and related to the Partnership’s share of income from Local Partnerships.

Cash distributions received from Local Partnerships which have investment basis (equity method) are recorded as a reduction of investments in partnerships and as cash receipts on the respective consolidated balance sheets.  Cash distributions received from Local Partnerships which have cumulative losses in excess of the amount of the Partnership’s investments in those Local Partnerships (equity method suspended) are recorded as share of income from partnerships on the respective consolidated statements of operations and as cash receipts on the respective consolidated balance sheets.  As of September 30, 2010 and 2009, the Partnership's share of cumulative losses to date for four of the six and for six of the eight Local Partnerships, respectively, exceeded the amount of the Partnership's investments in those Local Partnerships by $7,047,450 and $6,925,552, respectively.  As the Partnership has no further obligation to advance funds or provide financing to these Local Partnerships, the excess losses have not been reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

a.           Due on investments in partnerships and accrued interest payable

Purchase money notes

The Partnership executed certain purchase money notes payable as part of the acquisition of its equity interests in certain Local Partnerships.

3.           INVESTMENTS IN PARTNERSHIPS - Continued

The purchase money notes, which are nonrecourse to the Partnership, are generally secured by the Partnership's interest in the respective Local Partnerships.  There is no assurance that the underlying properties will have sufficient appreciation and equity to enable the Partnership to pay the purchase money notes' principal and accrued interest when due.  If a purchase money note is not paid in accordance with its terms, the Partnership will either have to renegotiate the terms of repayment or risk losing its partnership interest in the respective Local Partnership.  In the event that a purchase money note remains unpaid upon maturity, the noteholder may have the right to foreclose on the Partnership’s interest in the related Local Partnership.

The Partnership's inability to pay certain of the purchase money notes principal and accrued interest balances when due, and the resulting uncertainty regarding the Partnership's continued ownership interest in the related Local Partnerships, does not adversely impact the Partnership's financial condition because the purchase money notes are nonrecourse and secured solely by the Partnership's interest in the related Local Partnerships.  Therefore, should the investment in any of the Local Partnerships with matured or maturing purchase money notes not produce sufficient value to satisfy the related purchase money notes, the Partnership's exposure to loss is limited because the amount of the nonrecourse indebtedness of each of the matured or maturing purchase money notes exceeds the carrying amount of the investment in each of the related Local Partnerships.  Thus, even a complete loss of the Partnership's interest in these Local Partnerships would not have a material adverse impact on the financial condition of the Partnership.

Interest expense on the Partnership's purchase money notes for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010, was $81,609 and $244,828, respectively, and $75,445 and $226,336 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009, respectively.  The accrued interest payable on these purchase money notes of $3,740,383 and $3,495,556 as of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, is due upon the earliest of:  (i) sale or refinancing of the respective Local Partnership’s rental property; (ii) payment in full of the respective Local Partnership’s permanent loan; or (iii) maturity.  Interest expense included in discontinued operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010, was $37,191 and $205,002, respectively, and $83,906 and $252,874 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009, respectively.

b.           Assets held for sale or transfer

Westport Village

The purchase money note secured by the Partnership’s interest in Westport Associates (Westport Village) matured on September 1, 1999 and was not paid.  The Partnership’s non-recourse purchase money note obligation and accrued interest thereon was $840,000 and $2,904,645, respectively, at September 30, 2010.  This purchase money note and the accrued interest thereon is classified as held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

The mortgage loan encumbering the property associated with the Partnership’s investment in Westport Village is in default.  As of September 30, 2010, Westport Village was in receivership pending a foreclosure sale of the property.  Accordingly, the Partnership’s basis in the Local Partnership, which totaled $0 at both September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, has been reclassified to investment in partnerships held for sale or transfer in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. There can be no assurance as to the ultimate timing of the foreclosure sale and/or transfer of ownership of the property.

Madison Square

The mortgage loan encumbering the property associated with the Partnership’s investment in Madison Square is in default.  As of September 30, 2010, the Local Partnership had received notice from the lender of its intent to foreclose on the property.   Accordingly, the Partnership’s basis, which totaled $0 at both September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, has been reclassified to investment in partnerships held for sale or transfer in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.  There can be no assurance as to the ultimate timing of the foreclosure sale and/or transfer of ownership of the property.

Mary Allen Tower West

On May 12, 2010, a contract for the sale of the Mary Allen Tower West property was executed.  Due to the possible sale of the property related to Mary Allen Tower West, the Partnership’s basis in the Local Partnership was $2,138,022, which includes net unamortized acquisition fees and purchase property costs, which totaled $10,896 as of September 30, 2010, and $11,089 as of December 31, 2009, have been reclassified to investment in partnerships held for sale or transfer in the accompanying balance sheet.  There is no assurance that the sale of the property will occur.

c.           Completed sales

Hale Ohana

On March 15, 2008 the Local Partnership entered into a contract with a third party to sell its property for approximately $3,875,000.  The sale was completed on March 15, 2010.  The sale resulted in gain on disposition of investment in partnerships for financial statement purposes of $1,603,593 in 2010 and in gain of approximately $2,086,000 for federal tax purposes.  As of September 30, 2010, the Partnership’s share of cash proceeds from sale has been received. In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, in March 2010, the Managing General Partner was paid a disposition fee or $77,500 related to the sale.  The fee was netted against the related gain on disposition of investment in partnerships.

Pilgrim Tower East

Effective July 15, 2010, the Partnership’s interest in Pilgrim Tower East was transferred to the purchase money noteholder as satisfaction of the note.  As of July 15, 2010, the principal and accrued interest balances were $1,450,000 and $4,944,423, respectively.  The sale resulted in gain from extinguishment of debt for financial statement purposes of $6,368,609 in 2010 and in gain of approximately $7.5 million for federal tax purposes.

4.           RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership is obligated to reimburse the Managing General Partner or its affiliates for direct expenses in connection with managing the Partnership.  For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 the Partnership paid $76,535 and $210,091, respectively, and $59,869 and $248,865 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009, respectively.  Such expenses are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, in March 2010, the Managing General Partner was paid a disposition fee of $77,500 related to the sale of Hale Ohana, which was netted against the related gain on disposition of investment in partnerships.

Part I.    FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2.    Management's Discussion and Analysis
       of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section is based on the consolidated financial statements, and contains information that may be considered forward looking, including statements regarding the effect of governmental regulations.  Actual results may differ materially from those described in the forward looking statements and will be affected by a variety of factors including national and local economic conditions, the general level of interest rates, governmental regulations affecting the Partnership and interpretations of those regulations, the competitive environment in which the Partnership operates, and the availability of working capital.

The financial results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 included the impact of treating the results of operations related to the sale of the Partnership’s interest in Local Partnerships during the reporting periods.  The Partnership has presented the results of operations from these sold Local Partnerships as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for all periods presented.

Part I.    FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2.    Management's Discussion and Analysis
       of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Continued


Critical Accounting Policies

The Partnership has disclosed its selection and application of significant accounting policies in Note 1 of the notes to consolidated financial statements included in the Partnership’s annual report on Form 10-K at December 31, 2009.  The Partnership accounts for its investments in partnerships (Local Partnerships) by the equity method because the Partnership is a limited partner in the Local Partnerships.  As such the Partnership has no control over the selection and application of accounting policies, or the use of estimates, by the Local Partnerships.  Environmental and operational trends, events and uncertainties that might affect the properties owned by the Local Partnerships would not necessarily have a significant impact on the Partnership’s application of the equity method of accounting, since the equity method has been suspended for four Local Partnerships which have cumulative losses in excess of the amount of the Partnership’s investments in those Local Partnerships.

Financial Condition/Liquidity

The Partnership's liquidity, with unrestricted cash resources of $4,538,713, along with anticipated future cash distributions from Local Partnerships, is expected to be adequate to meet its current and anticipated operating cash needs.  As of December 13, 2010, there were no material commitments for capital expenditures.

The Partnership closely monitors its cash flow and liquidity position in an effort to ensure that sufficient cash is available for operating requirements.  For the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, existing cash resources, receipt of distributions from local partnerships and sale proceeds received were adequate to support operating cash requirements.  Cash and cash equivalents decreased $1,121,757 during the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, primarily due to the distribution paid to limited partners which was partially offset by sale proceeds received.

Results of Operations

The Partnership’s recognized net income for the three month period ended September 30, 2010, compared to net loss in 2009, primarily due to the gain on extinguishment of debt related to the transfer of the Partnership's interests in Pilgrim Tower East, which offset the decrease in share of income from partnerships.  The loss from continuing operations increased primarily due to the decrease in share of income from partnerships despite the reduced operating expenses.  The increase in income from discontinued operations was primarily attributable to the gain on extinguishment of debt related to the transfer of the Partnership's interests in Pilgrim Tower East.

The Partnership’s net income for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 decreased compared to 2009, primarily due to the lower gain on extinguishment of debt and a decrease in share of income from partnerships but the decline was partially offset by the disposition of an investment in a Local Partnership.  The gain in the prior year was related to the transfer of the Partnership’s interest in two Local Partnerships.  The loss from continuing operations increased primarily due to the decrease in share of income from partnerships despite the reduced operating expenses.  The decrease in share of income from partnerships is the result of significant reductions in the distributions from Local Partnerships in 2010.  General and administrative expenses decreased primarily due to nonrecurring state tax filing fees and lower reimbursed expenses in connection with managing the Partnership.  Professional fees increased due to higher audit costs.  The decrease in income from discontinued operations was primarily due to the lower gain on extinguishment of debt.

Part I.    FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2.    Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Continued

For financial reporting purposes, the Partnership, as a limited partner in the Local Partnerships, does not record losses from the Local Partnerships in excess of its investment to the extent that the Partnership has no further obligation to advance funds or provide financing to the Local Partnerships.  As a result, the Partnership's share of income from partnerships for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 did not include losses of $266,800 and $640,306, respectively, compared to excluded losses of $139,339 and $418,021 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009, respectively.

Certain taxing authorities may assert claims against the Partnership for failure to withhold and remit income tax on operating profit or where the sale(s) of property in which the Partnership was invested failed to produce sufficient cash proceeds with which to pay the state tax and/or to pay statutory partnership filing fees.  The Partnership is unable to quantify the amount of such potential claims at this time. The Partnership has consistently advised its Partners that they should consult with their tax advisors as to the necessity of filing non-resident returns in such states with respect to their proportional taxes due.

The Partnership successfully contested a claim from the Internal Revenue Service which related to a penalty from an alleged late filing of the 2002 federal tax return. The Internal Revenue Service waived the claim in October 2010.

No other significant changes in the Partnership's operations have taken place during the three month period ended September 30, 2010.
 
Item 4.    Controls and Procedures
 
a)           Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

The Partnership’s management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Managing General Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report.  A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.  Based on such evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Managing General Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective at a reasonable assurance level.

b)           Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

There has been no change in the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.

Part II.   OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.    Legal Proceedings

The Partnership is unaware of any pending or outstanding litigation involving it or the underlying investment property of the Local Partnerships in which the Partnership invests that are not of a routine nature arising in the ordinary course of business or that would have a material adverse effect on the business.

Part II.    OTHER INFORMATION - Continued
Item 3.    Defaults upon Senior Securities

See Note 2.a. of the notes to consolidated financial statements contained in Part I, Item 1, hereof, for information concerning the Partnership's defaults on certain purchase money notes.

There has not been any information required to be disclosed in a report on Form 8-K during the quarter ended September 30, 2010, but not reported, whether or not otherwise required by this Form 10-Q at September 30, 2010.

There is no established market for the purchase and sale of units of additional limited partner interest (Units) in the Partnership, although various informal secondary market services may exist.  Due to the limited markets, however, investors may be unable to sell or otherwise dispose of their Units.
