On or around December 15, 2015, Rancon Realty Fund IV, a California limited partnership (the “Partnership”), will mail to its limited partners a letter describing the Partnership’s results of operations and financial condition for the quarter ended September 30, 2015, and providing an update on the status of the liquidation and dissolution of the Partnership. A copy of the letter to limited partners is furnished with this Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1.

  See Item 2.02 above.

 

Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

In accordance with the Partnership’s Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution adopted by the general partners on April 10, 2014 and approved by the limited partners on May 8, 2014, the general partners are proceeding with the liquidation of the Partnership’s assets, including the recent disposition of the following real property assets:

 

(i) On December 8, 2015, the Partnership’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Rancon Realty Fund IV Subsidiary LLC, sold one parcel of the improved real property commonly known as Promotional Retail Center I and located at 495 E. Hospitality Lane, San Bernardino, California,  to RPM Investments, as qualified intermediary for the benefit of 1400 E. Foothill Limited Partnership, for a total sales price of $4,250,000.  
   
(ii) As previously reported by the Partnership, approximately 14.7 acres of the Tri-City land owned by the Partnership was part of a 27-acre landfill operated by the City of San Bernardino (the “City”) from approximately 1950 to 1960.  In 1996, the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board, with regulatory jurisdiction over the closure and monitoring of landfills, determined that the City was primarily responsible for the landfill, and the City and the Partnership entered into an agreement giving the City access to the site for development, implementation and financial responsibility for a plan for the remediation of the landfill.  The Partnership has entered into an agreement to transfer the landfill land to the City for ten dollars in consideration, which transfer is expected to occur on or around December 15, 2015.
