Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund III L.P.
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2010
(Unaudited)
Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund III L.P. (the "Fund") was formed under the laws of the State of Delaware as of September 19, 1991 for the purpose of acquiring, holding, and disposing of limited partnership interests in operating partnerships which will acquire, develop, rehabilitate, operate and own newly constructed, existing or rehabilitated low-income apartment complexes ("Operating Partnerships"). Effective as of June 1, 2001 there was a restructuring, and as a result, the Fund's general partner was reorganized as follows. The general partner of the Fund continues to be Boston Capital Associates III L.P., a Delaware limited partnership. The general partner of the general partner of the Fund is now BCA Associates Limited Partnership, a Massachusetts limited partnership, whose sole general partner is C&M Management, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation whose limited partners are Herbert F. Collins and John P. Manning. Mr. Manning is the principal of Boston Capital Partners, Inc. The limited partner of the general partner is Capital Investment Holdings, a general partnership whose partners are various officers and employees of Boston Capital Partners, Inc. and its affiliates. The assignor limited partner is BCTC III Assignor Corp., a Delaware corporation which is wholly-owned by Herbert F. Collins and John P. Manning.
Pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, the Fund filed a Form S-11 Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, effective January 24, 1992 which covered the offering (the "Public Offering") of the Fund's beneficial assignee certificates ("BACs") representing assignments of units of the beneficial interest of the limited partnership interest of the assignor limited partner. The Fund registered 20,000,000 BACs at $10 per BAC for sale to the public in one or more series. On September 4, 1993 the Fund filed an amendment to Form S-11 with the Securities and Exchange Commission which registered an additional 2,000,000 BACs at $10 per BAC for sale to the public in one or more series. The registration for the additional BACs became effective on October 6, 1993. Offers and sales of BACs in Series 15 through 19 of the Fund were completed and the last of the BACs in Series 15, 16, 17, 18 and 19 were issued by the Fund on September 26, 1992, December 28, 1992, September 17, 1993, September 22, 1993, and December 17, 1993, respectively. The Fund sold 3,870,500 of Series 15 BACs, for a total of $38,705,000; 5,429,402 of Series 16 BACs, for a total of $54,293,000; 5,000,000 of Series 17 BACs, for a total of $50,000,000; 3,616,200 of Series 18 BACs, for a total of $36,162,000; and 4,080,000 of Series 19 BACs, for a total of $40,800,000. As of December 31, 2010 5,427,602 BACs in Series 16 are outstanding. The Fund issued the last BACs in Series 19 on December 17, 1993. This concluded the Public Offering of the Fund.

NOTE B - ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL REPORTING POLICIES
The condensed financial statements included herein as of December 31, 2010 and for the nine months then ended have been prepared by the Fund, without audit.

* Fund proceeds from disposition does not include the following amounts recorded as receivable at December 31, 2009, $11,500 for Series 19.
The gain (loss) described above is for financial statement purposes only. There are significant differences between the equity method of accounting and the tax reporting of income and losses from Operating Partnership investments. The largest difference is the ability, for tax purposes, to deduct losses in excess of the Fund's investment in the Operating Partnership. As a result, the amount of gain recognized for tax purposes may be significantly higher than the gain recorded in the condensed financial statements.
The Fund's fiscal year ends March 31st of each year, while all the Operating Partnerships' fiscal years are the calendar year. Pursuant to the provisions of each Operating Partnership Agreement, financial results for each of the Operating Partnerships are provided to the Fund within 45 days after the close of each Operating Partnerships quarterly period. Accordingly, the current financial results available for the Operating Partnerships are for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

NOTE E - TAXABLE LOSS
The Fund's taxable loss for the calendar year ended December 31, 2010 is expected to differ from its loss for financial reporting purposes. This is primarily due to accounting differences in depreciation incurred by the Operating Partnerships and also differences between the equity method of accounting and the IRS accounting methods.
NOTE F - INCOME TAXES
The Fund has elected to be treated as a pass-through entity for income tax purposes and, as such, is not subject to income taxes. Rather, all items of taxable income, deductions and tax credits are passed through to and are reported by its owners on their respective income tax returns. The Fund's federal tax status as a pass-through entity is based on its legal status as a Partnership. Accordingly, the Fund is not required to take any tax positions in order to qualify as a pass-through entity. The Fund is required to file and does file tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities. Accordingly, these financial statements do not reflect a provision for income taxes and the Fund has no other tax positions which must be considered for disclosure.
NOTE G - SUBSEQUENT EVENT
The Fund has entered into agreements to either sell or transfer interests in three Operating Partnerships. The estimated sales prices and other terms for the disposition of the Operating Partnerships have been determined. The estimated proceeds to be received for these three Operating Partnerships are $2,844,037. The estimated gain on sales of the Operating Partnerships is $2,778,537 and the sales are expected to be recognized in the fourth quarter of fiscal year end 2011 or the first quarter of fiscal year end 2012.
Item 2. Management's Discussions and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements including our intentions, hopes, beliefs, expectations, strategies and predictions of our future activities, or other future events or conditions. These statements are "forward looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and are intended to be covered by the safe harbors created by these acts. Investors are cautioned that all forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainty, including, for example, the factors identified in Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010. Although we believe that the assumptions underlying these forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements included in this Report will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in these forward-looking statements, the inclusion of this information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that our objectives and plans will be achieved.
The Fund's primary source of funds is the proceeds of its Public Offering. Other sources of liquidity will include (i) interest earned on capital contributions held pending investment and on working capital reserves and (ii) cash distributions from operations of the Operating Partnerships in which the Fund has invested and will invest. Interest income is expected to decrease over the life of the Fund as capital contributions are paid to the Operating Partnerships and working capital reserves are expended. The Fund does not anticipate significant cash distributions from operations of the Operating Partnerships.
The Fund is currently accruing the fund management fee. Fund management fees accrued during the quarter ended December 31, 2010 were $380,294 and total fund management fees accrued as of December 31, 2010 were $24,353,302. During the nine months ended December 31, 2010, $495,402 of accrued fund management fees were paid. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, these liabilities will be deferred until the Fund receives proceeds from sales of the Operating Partnerships, which will be used to satisfy these liabilities. The Fund's working capital and sources of liquidity coupled with affiliated party liability accruals allow sufficient levels of liquidity to meet the third party obligations of the Fund. The Fund is currently unaware of any trends which would create insufficient liquidity to meet future third party obligations of the Fund.
As of December 31, 2010, an affiliate of the general partner of the Fund advanced a total of $793,696 to the Fund to pay some operating expenses of the Fund, and to make advances and/or loans to Operating Partnerships. These advances are included in Accounts payable-affiliates. During the nine months ended December 31, 2010 there were no advances. Below is a summary, by series, of the total advances made to date.

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Fund held limited partnership interests in 157 and 173 Operating Partnerships, respectively. In each instance the apartment complex owned by the applicable Operating Partnership is eligible for the federal housing tax credit. Initial occupancy of a unit in each apartment complex which complied with the minimum set-aside test (i.e., initial occupancy by tenants with incomes equal to no more than a certain percentage of area median income) and the rent restriction test (i.e., gross rent charged tenants does not exceed 30% of the applicable income standards) is referred to as "Qualified Occupancy." Each of the Operating Partnerships and each of the respective apartment complexes are described more fully in the Prospectus or applicable report on Form 8-K. The general partner of the Fund believes that there is adequate casualty insurance on the properties.
The Fund incurs a fund management fee to Boston Capital Asset Management Limited Partnership (formerly Boston Capital Communications Limited Partnership), or BCAMLP, in an amount equal to .5 percent of the aggregate cost of the apartment complexes owned by the Operating Partnerships, less the amount of various asset management and reporting fees paid by the Operating Partnerships.

The Fund's investment objectives do not include receipt of significant cash distributions from the Operating Partnerships in which it has invested or intends to invest. The Fund's investments in Operating Partnerships have been made principally with a view towards realization of federal housing tax credits for allocation to its partners and BAC holders.
Series 15
As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the average Qualified Occupancy for the series was 100%. The series had a total of 38 properties December 31, 2010, all of which were at 100% Qualified Occupancy.
For the nine month periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, Series 15 reflects a net loss from Operating Partnerships of $(733,831) and $(794,590), respectively, which includes depreciation and amortization of $1,340,405 and $1,521,927, respectively. This is an interim period estimate; it is not indicative of the final year end results.
Beckwood Manor Eight Limited Partnership (Lakeside Apartments) is a 32-unit, senior property, located in Lake Village, Arkansas. The property receives rental assistance for 23 units and is generally able to keep those units occupied. It remains difficult to rent the units that do not have rental assistance. There are several other low income tax credit developments in the area offering rental assistance, and this competition is the main contributor to the property's historically low occupancy. The current leasing incentives include two months of free electricity for leases signed before March 2011. Occupancy was 66% at the end of the fourth quarter of 2010. Management advertises the property in Lake Village's local paper and in the other regional newspapers. The property also distributes flyers to all surrounding communities; however, management believes word of mouth and referrals are the most effective forms of obtaining residents. The property operated below breakeven in 2009 due to low occupancy and overly burdensome operating expenses. Through the fourth quarter of 2010, the property is operating above breakeven due to a decrease in maintenance and administrative expenses. In order to decrease the operating expenses, management completes a majority of work orders and property maintenance issues in-house. The investment general partner conducted a site visit in September 2010. The investment general partner found the property to be in excellent condition with no deferred maintenance. The operating general partner continues to fund operating deficits as needed. When necessary, the Operating Partnership has accrued management fees, all of which are due to the operating general partner, in order to fund operating deficits. The mortgage payments, taxes, insurance, and accounts payable are all current. On December 31, 2010, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired with respect to Beckwood Manor Eight.
Livingston Plaza, Limited (Livingston Plaza) is a 24-unit, family property located in Livingston, Texas. The property has struggled with occupancy levels for several years. Despite efforts to improve the reputation of the property and reduce resident turnover and evictions, occupancy averaged 62% in 2009 and has declined to 55% in 2010. The property operated below breakeven in 2009 and continued to operate below breakeven in 2010. The continued low occupancy is partially due to economic conditions in the area and lack of qualified applicants. There are also several competitive properties less than a mile from the property. Management reports that trailer home ownership is very affordable in the area and often the monthly mortgage payment is in line with the rent at Livingston Plaza. Management continues to evict between two and three residents each month. Marketing consists of advertisements in local newspapers and distributing fliers to local businesses, churches, and schools. Also, to maintain a safe environment for the residents, the site manager worked with the local police department and was successful in establishing regular afternoon and evening police patrols through the property. The mortgage payments, taxes, insurance, and accounts payable are current. The operating general partner guarantee is unlimited in time and amount. On December 31, 2008, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired with respect to Livingston Plaza. The investment general partner is in the process of exploring various disposition opportunities consistent with the investment objectives of the investment partnership.
In October 2009, the investment general partner transferred its interest in Osage Housing Associates LP to an entity affiliated with the operating general partner for its assumption of the outstanding mortgage balance of approximately $530,583 and cash proceeds to the investment limited partner of $480,000. Of the total proceeds received, $7,600 was paid to BCAMLP for expenses related to the transfer, which includes third party legal costs. The remaining proceeds of $472,400 were returned to cash reserves held by Series 15. The monies held in cash reserves will be utilized to pay current operating expenses, accrued but unpaid asset management fees, and accrued but unpaid expenses of the investment partnership. After all outstanding obligations of the investment partnership are satisfied, any remaining monies will be distributed based on the number of BACs held by each investor at the time of distribution. Annual losses generated by the Operating Partnership, which were applied against the investment limited partnership investment in the Operating Partnership in accordance with the equity method of accounting, had previously reduced the investment limited partnership investment in the Operating Partnership to zero. Accordingly, a gain on the sale of the Operating Partnership, net of the overhead and expense reimbursement, has been recorded in the amount of $472,400 as of December 31, 2009.
Greentree Apartments Limited (Sue-Ellen Apartments) is a 24-unit, family property located in Utica, OH. The operating general partner passed away in the second quarter of 2007 and his widow assumed the operating general partner responsibilities. During 2008, communication with the new operating general partner became extremely difficult while operations declined. The property operated below breakeven in 2008. During the first quarter of 2009, the operating general partner learned that the current management company's contract had been terminated as of December 31, 2008. In addition, Rural Development accelerated the note and started foreclosure proceedings. Although the operating general partner appealed, the appeal was denied. The investment general partner learned of these developments from the real estate broker engaged by the operating general partner. The affiliated management company of a potential replacement operating general partner was placed on-site by Rural Development during May 2009. The potential operating general partner had been interested in acquiring the operating general partner and investment general partner interests; however, attempts by the potential operating general partner to develop a workout plan with Rural Development have failed and foreclosure is expected to proceed. On December 31, 2009, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired with respect to Greentree Apartments. The property's insurance expired as of January 2011. At this point Rural Development will not advance funds to pay the insurance premium and the management company has requested an advance from the investment general partner to address this issue. As of January 2011, the insurance premium has not been paid for 2011 and the mortgage remains past due.
Showboat Manor LDHA LP (Showboat Manor Apartments) is a 26-unit senior property located in Chesaning, MI. The property has historically operated with low occupancy, which has resulted in below breakeven operations. Marketing consists of advertisements in local newspapers and distributing fliers to local businesses, churches, and schools. Management has also contacted the local housing authority and has instituted a resident referral program. To help retain residents, management is offering on-site events to enhance the sense of community. Also, to maintain a safe environment for the residents, the site manager worked with the local police department and was successful in establishing regular afternoon and evening police patrols. Because of ongoing operating cash flow issues, the property was put under a workout plan with Rural Development in 2008. The goal of the plan was to fully fund the tax and insurance escrow, as well as the replacement reserve. However, due to continued low occupancy, management was unsuccessful in funding the reserve and escrow accounts. In December 2009 management informed Rural Development of the issue and at this time is waiting for their response. Through the fourth quarter of 2010, the property is continuing to operate with low occupancy and as a result is unable to breakeven. As of December 2010, the property was 77% occupied. The operating general partner's operating deficit guarantee has expired. The Operating Partnership's mortgage payments are current. On December 31, 2007, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired with respect to Showboat Manor. The investment general partner is in the process of exploring various disposition opportunities consistent with the investment objectives of the investment partnership.
In October 2008, the investment general partner of Buena Vista Apartments, Phase II approved an agreement to sell the property and the transaction closed in September 2009. The sales price for the property was $1,561,139, which includes the outstanding mortgage balance of approximately $1,391,140 and cash proceeds to the investment limited partners of $130,709. Of the total proceeds received, $12,000 represents reporting fees due to an affiliate of the investment partnership and the balance represents proceeds from the sale. Of the remaining proceeds, $15,000 was paid to BCAMLP for expenses related to the sale, which includes third party legal costs. The remaining proceeds from the sale of $103,709 were returned to cash reserves held by Series 15. The monies held in cash reserves will be utilized to pay current operating expenses, accrued but unpaid asset management fees, and accrued but unpaid expenses of the investment partnership. After all outstanding obligations of the investment partnership are satisfied, any remaining monies will be distributed based on the number of BACs held by each investor at the time of distribution. Annual losses generated by the Operating Partnership, which were applied against the investment limited partnership investment in the Operating Partnership in accordance with the equity method of accounting, had previously reduced the investment limited partnership investment in the Operating Partnership to zero. The sale proceeds were received on October 6, 2009; so a receivable in the amount of $103,709 was recorded for Series 15 as of September 30, 2009.

Monark Properties, LP (Monark Homes) is a 10-unit family property in Van Buren, AR. The property is located in a depressed rural area. Average occupancy for 2009 was strong through October, but declined to 80% by the end of the year. Vacancy continued to be an issue in 2010. Average occupancy was 72% through September 2010 and occupancy at the end of 2010 was 70%.

Blairsville Rental Housing, Limited Partnership is a 24-unit Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) family property located in Blairsville, GA. Due to weak and declining economic conditions throughout 2009, many employers closed or significantly reduced employee hours. As a result of hourly-wage employment composing a large portion of the property's tenant base, the number of move-outs and evictions increased. Management has reported that residents who were no longer able to afford rent have moved back in with friends or family. In addition, other tenants have either purchased homes or required additional personal care and transferred to nursing home facilities, causing occupancy to decline further. In the fourth quarter of 2010, occupancy was 80%, from a previous 2009 annual average of 87%. Due to the property's rural location traffic has been limited. Management has been aggressively marketing the community by distributing fliers throughout the area and installing brightly colored directional signage. Additionally, a tenant referral program and move-in specials are being offered. The investment general partner will continue to work with management in an effort to stabilize operations in 2010. The mortgage, real estate taxes, and insurance payments are current.

Most of the residents who vacated lost their employment and could no longer pay their rent. Occupancy at the end of the fourth quarter of 2010 was 95%; however, low occupancy and low rental rates in the area continued to prevent the property from achieving breakeven operations through the fourth quarter of 2010.

Sable Chase of McDonough L.P (Sable Chase) is a 225-unit property located in McDonough, GA. In 2009, the property operated below breakeven due to low occupancy. According to management, newly developed affordable rental housing and single family homes have created increased supply without a corresponding increased demand. The most pressing leasing challenge is maintaining current residents and obtaining new qualified residents due to the leasing incentives being offered by competitors. During 2009, additional advertising campaigns were started, including an ad in the local Hispanic newspaper, an online listing that reaches out to safe houses, rehab homes, etc., and new fliers, balloons and flags to enhance the property's visibility within the community. During the fourth quarter of 2010, the property's curb appeal was enhanced with the planting of seasonal flowers at the entrance and in front of the leasing office. Occupancy continued to increase at a slow but steady rate throughout 2009, ending the year at 80%. During 2010, management expanded marketing to the retail shops within 10 minutes of the property, and started a Preferred Employer Program at human resources departments of large-scale employers within a 5-mile radius. Management has continued this program, which waives the application fee and reduces the security deposit by 50% for qualified employees, through the fourth quarter of 2010. Cross-marketing with local businesses such as Applebee's, Golden Corral, Outback, Wal-Mart, etc. is ongoing. During the third quarter of 2010, direct mail, full color postcards were mailed to the specific targeted market of renters in the McDonough area. This postcard offered discounted rents for new tenants. The postcards only attracted one qualified applicant, and management has discontinued this marketing effort. During the fourth quarter of 2010, management focused advertising in the Atlantic Apartment Finder, Atlanta Apartment Guide, and printed fliers on pizza boxes. Management has held quarterly tenant gatherings and serves breakfast-on-the-go on a monthly basis in the clubhouse. Due to the ongoing marketing efforts, occupancy has increased to 92% through December 2010 with an annual average of 86%; an improvement from the 2009 occupancy average of 75%. The operating reserve fund is completely drawn down, and the operating general partner has begun funding deficits under an unlimited operating deficit guarantee.

Joiner Elderly, Limited Partnership (Joiner Manor) is a 25-unit development in Joiner, AR. In 2009, average occupancy was 80% and the property operated below breakeven for the year. Management attributes the low occupancy primarily to poor economic situations and a smaller tenant pool over the past few years. Newer properties with rental assistance located in the area have also had a competitive and negative impact on occupancy. In November 2009 the property entered into a workout plan approved by Rural Development in an attempt to address the vacancy situation. In accordance with the workout plan, the previous site manager was let go and a temporary manager assumed the role. The temporary manager effectively increased occupancy to 76% through March 2010. A full time manager has since been hired, and has been focused on building a good rapport with the tenants. Occupancy has fluctuated throughout 2010 and was 76% by December 2010, averaging 80% for the year. In addition to staffing changes, the management company has been advertising in the local paper and distributing fliers to combat the low occupancy. Management had ceased offering referral bonuses.

The property operated below breakeven through the fourth quarter of 2010 as a result of low occupancy and the costs incurred to market and turnover units. Occupancy as of December 31, 2010 was 63%. Management struggled to rent units as the area of Lehigh Acres has been hit hard by the economic downturn with significant job losses and decreased work hours. Turnover is high as residents are moving in with friends and family in order to lower monthly bills. Increased competition has also challenged the property.

Cypress Point LP (Laurel Ridge Apartments) is a 78-unit property located in Naples, FL. Prior to 2007, the Naples area had experienced significant growth, which was driven by the real estate development, but in 2007 construction activity halted due to oversupply and declining property values. In efforts to avoid foreclosure, many private owners began competing with Low Income Housing Tax Credit properties by accepting Section 8 vouchers. As no additional Section 8 vouchers were being provided to area residents, the market became extremely competitive as properties were vying for the same dwindling tenant base. Concessions increased dramatically and effective rental rates declined significantly. In addition, the tourism market has slowed, resulting in many service employees losing their jobs or seeing their hours reduced. As a result, evictions increased in the market and at the property.

Lakeview Meadows II L.D.H.A. Limited Partnership (Lakeview Meadows II) is a 60-unit, elderly property located in Battle Creek, Michigan. The Battle Creek economy continued to be weak in 2010, which negatively impacted occupancy at the property. Through December 2010, average physical occupancy was 76% and the property was not able to breakeven. However, occupancy did improve slightly at year-end and ended 2010 at 85%. In an effort to further improve occupancy, management is aggressively advertising, causing an increase in administrative expenses. Also, to attract more traffic to the property, management is offering one month free rent to its new residents. The investment general partner will continue to monitor occupancy and operations. All real estate tax, mortgage, and insurance payments are current. On December 31, 2008, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired with respect to Lakeview Meadows II L.D.H.A. Limited Partnership. The investment general partner is in the process of exploring various disposition opportunities consistent with the investment objectives of the investment partnership.
Newton I, Limited Partnership (Newton Plaza Apartments) is a 24-unit family development in Newton, Iowa. Occupancy decreased in the second and third quarters of 2009 due to evictions for nonpayment of rent, but the property recovered and ended the year at 100% occupancy. Since that time, continued resident issues caused occupancy to decline throughout 2010. As of December 2010, occupancy was 75%. Management hired new on-site personnel to aid in stabilizing operations and has focused its marketing efforts outside of the local area because many local applicants have been denied due to issues relating to background checks. There are currently three approved applications but management has yet to receive move-in commitments from these applicants. Management is considering changing the name of the property in the hopes of improving the reputation of the site and attracting a better pool of applicants. The property continued to operate below breakeven in 2010 due to high operating expenses and low vacancy. On December 31, 2009, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired with respect to Newton I. The investment general partner is in the process of exploring various disposition opportunities consistent with the investment objectives of the investment partnership.

Despite strong occupancy and reasonable expense levels, the property continues to operate below breakeven because of low rental rates. The area's median income is low which caps rent levels. All residents are already paying the highest allowable rents. The management company is marketing available units by working closely with the Housing Authority and by continuing various marketing efforts to attract qualified residents. The operating general partner continues to fund all operating deficits. The mortgage, taxes, insurance and payables are current.

Bear Creek of Naples (Bear Creek Apartments) is a 120-unit family development located in Naples, Florida. Occupancy stayed strong in the fourth quarter of 2010, with December occupancy ending at 93%. Despite strong occupancy, the property continued to operate below breakeven in the fourth quarter 2010 because of high administrative and maintenance expenses. These expenses are necessary in order to advertise the property and turn the units for incoming residents. Management continues to run advertisements in the local newspaper and utilizes signs in front of the property displaying rents to drive-by traffic as the property is on a main road. The on-site manager has implemented a resident retention program to reduce turnover costs. The program includes various social functions as well as a resident referral program and newsletter. In the fourth quarter of 2010, the investment general partner conducted a site visit to assess the property's physical condition and meet with management to discuss operations. The property was found to be in good physical condition with the exception of the vacant units which were not rent ready. The investment general partner recommended that several vacant units be kept in rent ready condition at all times to show to prospective residents. The property manager appeared competent and knowledgeable about the surrounding area. The insurance payments are current. The real estate taxes and mortgage are currently delinquent. The local tax authority has issued a tax certificate for the delinquent taxes which will accrue interest until paid. The operating general partner has three years to pay the delinquent taxes before the property goes to tax sale. The operating general partner anticipates paying the 2009 and 2010 real estate taxes in March of 2011, which is within the allotted three years. In addition to the delinquent taxes, the mortgage is delinquent as the operating general partner stopped making mortgage payments in June 2010 in an attempt to focus the lender's attention on the property. The operating general partner is attempting to force the lender to reconsider their previous decision to reject any workout plan. In the third quarter 2010, the lender initiated foreclosure proceedings. During court proceedings, the operating general partner argued that a foreclosure would terminate the Operating Partnership's Land Use Restriction Agreement and do a disservice to the community by eliminating the stipulation that the property remain affordable. This approach was successful in delaying foreclosure as the court issued a denial of the lender's motion to appoint a receiver on September 20, 2010. The litigation continued in the fourth quarter, with the operating general partner working with their attorney on a counterclaim to further delay foreclosure. If the court rejects the operating general partner's counterclaim, it is likely that the lender will foreclose on the property in 2011. The operating general partner is still hopeful that the lender will work to negotiate a workout plan by the first half of 2011. The investment general partner will continue to monitor these issues. On December 31, 2009, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired with respect to Bear Creek of Naples. The investment general partner is in the process of exploring various disposition opportunities consistent with the investment objectives of the investment partnership.
Parvin's L.P. (Parvin's Branch Townhouses) is a 24-unit family property located in Vineland, New Jersey. In 2008, occupancy averaged 91% and the property operated below breakeven. In 2009, average occupancy remained stable at 92%, but the property continued to operate below breakeven status. The average occupancy for 2010 is 80%. The property has experienced significant collection issues due to the current tenant profile and the nature of eviction laws in the State of New Jersey. According to management, evictions can take up to 6 months to fully process in the State of New Jersey. The operating general partner continues to fund operating deficits as needed. The first mortgage matured in July 2009. After negotiating with the lender, a loan modification was finalized on April 30, 2010, that resulted in a lower interest rate and a three-year extension. The extension does not add additional debt. Mortgage payments were made during negotiations to keep the loan current. According to the operating general partner, the resulting lower interest rate and management's concerted effort to improve the resident profile will allow the property's revenue to cover expenses going forward. The real estate taxes and insurance payments are all current. On December 31, 2008, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired with respect to Parvin's L.P. The investment general partner is in the process of exploring various disposition opportunities consistent with the investment objectives of the investment partnership.

Humboldt I, LP (Briarwood Apartments) is a 20-unit property located in Humboldt, IA. Operations have struggled at this property for the past several years due to low occupancy and high maintenance expenses related to resident turnover. Lack of cash flow and withdrawals to finance capital expenditures have resulted in an underfunding of the replacement reserve escrow. Historical and ongoing challenges cited by management include problem tenants that require eviction, difficulty attracting quality tenants, and the poor state of the local economy. Management relies heavily on outside contacts and referrals from the local housing authority, but also runs advertisements on a weekly basis in a free weekly advertiser that is distributed throughout town. Advertising has been expanded into surrounding towns to increase interest in the property. As of December 2010, physical occupancy was 90% and the property was operating slightly above breakeven. A Servicing Workout Plan was approved by Rural Development on September 28, 2009 and was intended to fully fund the replacement reserve, pay down accounts payable, and increase occupancy. Quarterly meetings are being held as a means of tracking progress as part of the plan. The investment general partner conducted a site visit in October 2009. The property was found to be in generally good condition. On December 31, 2010, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired with respect to Humboldt I, LP. The mortgage, taxes, and insurance are current.
Marengo Park Apartments LP (West Pine Homes) is a 24-unit property located in Marengo Park, IA.

The property is operating under a Servicing Workout Plan approved by Rural Development on March 3, 2009 which aims to fund the replacement reserves, make payables current, and resolve capital improvement issues. In the summer of 2010 the operating general partner hired a new property manager and changed the name of the community to West Pine Homes with the hopes of improving the reputation of the property. Current marketing includes advertising on Rent.com, advertising in the Local Free Shopper (which covers three cities/towns), posting fliers in the local community and frequent contacts with local agencies, as well as 'for rent' signs located on the property. As of December 2010, physical occupancy was 83%. Account payables remain high. Due to the decrease in occupancy in the fourth quarter, cash flow has decreased and funds have not been available to reduce the payables as was originally planned. The property is operating slightly below breakeven as of the end of the fourth quarter in 2010. The investment limited partner will continue to work closely with the operating general partner until occupancy improves and operations stabilize. On December 31, 2009, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired with respect to Marengo Park Apartments.

Carrollton Villa, L.P. (Meadow Ridge Apartments) located in Carrollton, Missouri, has historically operated below breakeven, due to insufficient rental rates and low occupancy due to few job opportunities in the property's rural location. The property also suffers from high operating expenses, specifically utilities. Over the past five years the City of Carrollton has dramatically increased water and sewer rates to cover the repair to water lines. Water and sewer rates have increased over 300% from 2005 levels. In 2010, the average annual occupancy was 99%, with a fourth quarter average of 98%, but operations remained consistently below breakeven. To alleviate the pressure on cash flow, the mortgage was made a cash flow only mortgage in 2004. This allowed the property to reduce operating deficits. Also, the maturity dates for the first and second mortgages were extended from December 2008 and November 2008 to December 2013 and November 2013, respectively.

During the first quarter of 2009, the investment general partner learned that the current management company's contract had been terminated as of December 31, 2008. In addition, Rural Development accelerated the note and started foreclosure proceedings. Although the operating general partner appealed, the appeal was denied. The investment general partner learned of these developments from the real estate broker engaged by the operating general partner. The affiliated management company of a potential replacement operating general partner was placed on-site by Rural Development during May 2009. The potential operating general partner had been interested in acquiring the operating general partner and investment general partner interests, however, attempts by the potential operating general partner to develop a workout plan with Rural Development have failed and foreclosure is expected to proceed. On December 31, 2010, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expires with respect to Forest Associates. The property's insurance expired as of January 2011. At this point Rural Development will not advance funds to pay the insurance premium and the management company has requested an advance from investment general partner to address this issue. As of January 2011, the insurance premium has not been paid for 2011 and the mortgage remains past due.
Jeremy Associates, LP (Coopers Crossing Apartments) is a 93-unit family development located in Las Colinas, Texas. In 2009, average occupancy was 95%; however, the property continued to operate below breakeven due to high operating expenses. Occupancy continues to be strong averaging 99% in 2010. Operating expenses are high mainly due to high maintenance costs as a result of severe physical deficiencies in a number of buildings on site. Since construction, a number of the buildings have had differential settlement issues resulting in cracked floor slabs, cracked brick veneer, cracking windows and doors and sagging balconies. These concerns have been addressed on an ongoing basis via advances by the operating general partner. Despite high occupancy and cost control efforts including staffing reduction, reduced marketing and the shutting down of one boiler during warmer months, the property continues to operate below breakeven in 2010. The operating general partner continues to fund operating deficits despite the expiration of the operating deficit guarantee. So far the operating general partner has advanced over $1,800,000 for repairs and operating deficits. The mortgage, trade payables, property taxes and insurance are current.

Northpointe, L.P. (Northpointe Apartments) is a 158-unit family property located in Kansas City, MO. In 2009, despite average occupancy of 92% and a slight decrease in operating expenses, the property operated below breakeven. Rents have been kept below the maximum allowable to remain competitive with two nearby tax credit properties developed within the past five years. Occupancy has remained steady through the third quarter of 2010, averaging 94%. However, occupancy dipped to 85% at the end of December, resulting in average occupancy of 92% for 2010. Moveouts continue due to the struggling local economy. The main reason for residents moving out is that they cannot afford to pay the rent. Two residents were evicted in the fourth quarter of 2010. Rental rates remain insufficient to cover expenses. The operating general partner along with management has increased the size of their advertisement in the For Rent Magazine, enhanced online advertising, and temporarily reduced rents and value priced selected one and two bedroom apartments in order to improve occupancy. The operating general partner continues to fund deficits as needed; however, he has notified the investment general partner that his ability to continue funding is limited. The operating general partner and investment general partner have explored refinancing and disposition options, but the significant prepayment penalty of $770,000 associated with the debt has prevented a sale or refinance from being a feasible option. The operating general partner plans to continue funding the property to the best of his ability until the mortgage is closer to its maturity date of August 2014. The property's mortgage, real estate taxes and insurance payments are all current. On December 31, 2009, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired with respect to Northpointe, LP.

Annual losses generated by the Operating Partnership, which were applied against the investment limited partnership investment in the Operating Partnership in accordance with the equity method of accounting, had previously reduced the investment limited partnership investment in the Operating Partnership to zero. The sale proceeds were received on January 5, 2010; so a receivable in the amount of $11,500 has been recorded for Series 19 as of December 31, 2009. Accordingly, a gain on the sale of the Operating Partnership, net of the overhead and expense reimbursement, has been recorded in the amount of $11,500 as of December 31, 2009.
In February 2010, the investment general partner of Series 19 entered into an agreement to transfer its interest in Ankeny Housing Associates Two LP to a non-affiliated entity for its assumption of the outstanding mortgage balance of approximately $2,566,333 and cash proceeds to the investment partnership of $1,544,780. The transaction closed as of April 2010. Of the total proceeds received, $10,000 represents reporting fees due to an affiliate of the investment partnership and the balance represents proceeds from the transfer. Of the remaining proceeds, $20,400 will be paid to BCAMLP for expenses related to the transfer, which includes third party legal costs. The remaining proceeds of $1,514,380 were returned to cash reserves held by Series 19. The monies held in cash reserves will be utilized to pay current operating expenses, accrued but unpaid asset management fees, and accrued but unpaid expenses of the investment partnership. After all outstanding obligations of the investment partnership are satisfied, any remaining monies will be distributed based on the number of BACs held by each investor at the time of distribution. Annual losses generated by the Operating Partnership, which were applied against the investment limited partnership investment in the Operating Partnership in accordance with the equity method of accounting, had previously reduced the investment limited partnership investment in the Operating Partnership to zero. Accordingly, a gain on the sale of the Operating Partnership, net of the overhead and expense reimbursement, has been recorded in the amount of $1,514,380 as of June 30, 2010.
In October 2010, the operating general partner of Vistas Associates LP approved an agreement to sell the property to a non-affiliated entity and the transaction closed on January 31, 2011. The sales price for the property was $8,450,000, which included the outstanding mortgage balances of approximately $4,575,943 and cash proceeds to the investment partnership of $2,750,000. Of the proceeds received by the investment partnership, $25,000 represents reporting fees due to an affiliate of the investment partnership and the balance represents proceeds from the sale. Of the remaining proceeds, $15,000 will be paid to BCAMLP for expenses related to the sale, which includes third party legal costs. The remaining proceeds from the sale of approximately $2,710,000 were returned to cash reserves held by Series 19. The monies held in cash reserves will be utilized to pay current operating expenses, accrued but unpaid asset management fees, and accrued but unpaid expenses of the investment partnership. After all outstanding obligations of the investment partnership are satisfied, any remaining monies will be distributed based on the number of BACs held by each investor at the time of distribution.
Principal Accounting Policies and Estimates
The condensed financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require the Fund to make various estimates and assumptions. The following section is a summary of some aspects of those accounting policies that may require subjective or complex judgments and are most important to the portrayal of the Fund's financial condition and results of operations. The Fund believes that there is a low probability that the use of different estimates or assumptions in making these judgments would result in materially different amounts being reported in the financial statements.
The Fund is required to assess potential impairments to its long-lived assets, which are primarily investments in limited partnerships. The Fund accounts for its investment in limited partnerships in accordance with the equity method of accounting since the Fund does not control the operations of the Operating Partnerships. The purpose of an impairment analysis is to verify that the real estate investment balance reflected on the balance sheet does not exceed the value of the underlying investments.
If the book value of the Fund's investment in an Operating Partnership exceeds the estimated value derived by management, which generally consists of the remaining future Low-Income Housing Credits allocable to the Fund and the estimated residual value to the Fund, the Fund reduces its investment in the Operating Partnership and includes this reduction in equity in loss of investment of limited partnerships.
In accordance with the accounting guidance for the consolidation of variable interest entities, the Fund determines when it should include the assets, liabilities, and activities of a variable interest entity (VIE) in its financial statements, and when it should disclose information about its relationship with a VIE. The analysis that must be performed to determine which entity should consolidate a VIE focuses on control and economic factors. A VIE is a legal structure used to conduct activities or hold assets, which must be consolidated by a company if it is the primary beneficiary because it has (1) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. If multiple unrelated parties share such power, as defined, no party will be required to consolidate the VIE. Further, the guidance requires continual reconsideration of the primary beneficiary of a VIE.
Based on this guidance, the Operating Partnerships in which the Fund invests meet the definition of a VIE because the owners of the equity at risk in these entities do not have the power to direct their operations. However, management does not consolidate the Fund's interests in these VIEs, as it is not considered to be the primary beneficiary since it does not have the power to direct the activities that are considered most significant to the economic performance of these entities. The Fund currently records the amount of its investment in these partnerships as an asset on its balance sheets, recognizes its share of partnership income or losses in the statements of operations, and discloses how it accounts for material types of these investments in its financial statements. The Fund's balance in investment in Operating Partnerships plus advances made to Operating Partnerships represents its maximum exposure to loss. The Fund's exposure to loss on these partnerships is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the underlying Housing Complexes as well as the strength of the general partners and their guarantee against credit recapture to the investors of the Fund.
Recent Accounting Changes
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued accounting guidance for Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. This guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and shall be applied prospectively except for very limited transactions. In February 2008, the FASB delayed for one year implementation of the guidance as it pertains to certain non-financial assets and liabilities. The Fund adopted GAAP for Fair Value Measurements effective April 1, 2008, except as it applies to those non-financial assets and liabilities, for which the effective date was April 1, 2009. The Fund has determined that adoption of this guidance has no material impact on the Fund's financial statements.
In November 2008, the FASB issued accounting guidance on Equity Method Investment Accounting Considerations that addresses how the initial carrying value of an equity method investment should be determined, how an impairment assessment of an underlying indefinite-lived intangible asset of an equity method investment should be performed, how an equity method investee's issuance of shares should be accounted for, and how to account for a change in an investment from the equity method to the cost method. This guidance is effective in fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Fund adopted the guidance for the interim quarterly period beginning April 1, 2009. The adoption of this guidance does not have a material impact on the Fund's financial condition or results of operations.
In April 2009, the FASB issued accounting guidance for Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments. This requires disclosure about the method and significant assumptions used to establish the fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods as well as annual statements. It became effective for Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund III L.P. as of and for the interim period ended June 30, 2009 and has no impact on the Fund's financial condition or results of operations.
In May 2009, the FASB issued guidance regarding subsequent events, which was subsequently updated in February 2010. This guidance established general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. In particular, this guidance sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements, and the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. This guidance was effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods ending after June 15, 2009, and was therefore adopted by the Fund for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The adoption did not have a significant impact on the subsequent events that the Fund reports, either through recognition or disclosure, in the financial statements. In February 2010, the FASB amended its guidance on subsequent events to remove the requirement to disclose the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events, alleviating conflicts with current SEC guidance. This amendment was effective immediately and therefore the Company did not include the disclosure in this Form 10-Q.
Recent Accounting Changes - continued
In June 2009, the FASB issued the Accounting Standards Codification (Codification). Effective July 1, 2009, the Codification is the single source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by non-governmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. The Codification is intended to reorganize, rather than change, existing GAAP. Accordingly, all references to currently existing GAAP have been removed and have been replaced with plain English explanations of the Fund's accounting policies. The adoption of the Codification did not have a material impact on the Fund's financial position or results of operations.
