CAPITAL REALTY INVESTORS-III LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2011 and 2010
(Unaudited)
1. ORGANIZATION
Capital Realty Investors-III Limited Partnership (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership which was formed under the Maryland Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act on June 27, 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 The Partnership originally made investments in thirty-seven Local Partnerships. As of September 30, 2011, the Partnership retained investments in four 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 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 financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Partnership's annual report on Form 10-K at December 31, 2010.
In the opinion of CRI, the Managing General Partner of the Partnership, the accompanying unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of the Partnership as of September 30, 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. The results of operations for the interim period ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
3. PLAN OF LIQUIDATION
On November 21, 2005, the General Partners recommended that the limited partners approve a plan of liquidation and dissolution for the Partnership. The plan of liquidation and dissolution was approved by the limited partners on January 20, 2006. Since the approval of the plan of liquidation and dissolution, we have continued to seek to sell the assets of the Partnership and use the sales proceeds and/or other Partnership funds to pay all expenses in connection with such sales, pay or make provision for payment of all Partnership obligations and liabilities, and distribute the remaining assets as set forth in the Partnership Agreement. Numerous variables, including adverse general economic conditions, as well as, partnership and regulatory restrictions, have impacted the timeframe required to accomplish the liquidation and dissolution of the Partnership. There can be no assurance as to when the liquidation and dissolution of the Partnership will be completed.

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, 2011 and 2010, all such capital contributions had been paid to the Local Partnerships.
a. Summarized financial information
Combined statements of operations for the four Local Partnerships in which the Partnership was invested as of September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, follow. The combined statements have been compiled from information supplied by the management agents of the Local Partnership 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 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 statements of operations and as cash receipts on the respective balance sheets. As of both September 30, 2011 and 2010, the Partnership's share of cumulative losses to date for two of four Local Partnerships and three of four Local Partnerships, respectively, exceeded amount of the Partnership's investments in and advances to those Local Partnerships by $9,194,728 and $9,444,944, 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 financial statements.

| 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 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.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Partnership has disclosed its selection and application of significant accounting policies in Note 1 of the notes to financial statements included in the Partnership’s annual report on Form 10-K at December 31, 2010. 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 two Local Partnerships which have cumulative losses in excess of the amount of the Partnership’s investments in those Local Partnerships. The Partnership reviews property assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. Recoverability is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If an asset were determined to be impaired, its basis would be adjusted to fair value through the recognition of an impairment loss.
Financial Condition/Liquidity
The Partnership's liquidity, with unrestricted cash resources of $2,286,208 as of September 30, 2011, 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 16, 2011, 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, 2011, existing cash resources were adequate to support operating cash requirements. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $526,945 during the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, primarily due to cash used in operating activities.

Results of Operations
The Partnership’s net loss for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 increased compared to 2010, primarily due to an increase in professional fees and a decrease in share of income from Local Partnerships.
The Partnership’s net loss for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 decreased compared to 2010, primarily due to decrease in professional fees, an increase in share of income from Local Partnerships and an increase in interest income.
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, 2011, did not include losses of $42,431 and $170,837, respectively, compared to excluded losses of $13,813 and $34,774 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010, 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 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.
No other significant changes in the Partnership's operations have taken place during the three month period ended September 30, 2011.
Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution
On November 21, 2005, the General Partners recommended that the Limited Partners approve a plan of liquidation and dissolution for the Partnership. The plan of liquidation and dissolution was approved by the Limited Partners on January 20, 2006. Since the approval of the plan of liquidation and dissolution, we have continued to seek to sell the assets of the Partnership and use the sales proceeds and/or other Partnership funds to pay all expenses in connection with such sales, pay or make provision for payment of all Partnership obligations and liabilities, and distribute the remaining assets as set forth in the Partnership Agreement. Numerous variables, including adverse general economic conditions, as well as, partnership and regulatory restrictions, have impacted the timeframe required to accomplish the liquidation and dissolution of the Partnership. There can be no assurance as to when the liquidation and dissolution of the Partnership will be completed.

| 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 were not effective as a result of insufficient accounting systems and processes in place to ensure timely reports. We are currently in the process of the remediation of the weakness in our internal control over financial reporting by the employment of a consultant with the requisite accounting expertise to resolve the above issue and expect to implement changes in the near term.
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 of the Partnership.
| Item 5. | Other Information |
There has not been any information required to be disclosed in a report on Form 8-K during the quarter ended September 30, 2011, but not reported, whether or not otherwise required by this Form 10-Q at September 30, 2011.
There is no established market for the purchase and sale of units of 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.
On July 28, 2010, the Partnership paid a cash distribution of $898,230 ($15 per Unit) to the Limited Partners who were holders of record as of July 1, 2010.
On March 31, 2011, the Partnership issued a press release regarding a “mini-tender offer” commenced by MacKenzie Patterson Fuller, LP for up to 2.1% of the Units in the Partnership, including those already owned by the offeror and its affiliates.
