Liquidation of the Partnership
------------------------------

On May 20, 2004, the Partnership sold its remaining property investment,
Perrymont, at which time the Partnership adopted a plan of termination and
liquidation under which liabilities will be paid and net proceeds will be
distributed to the Partners.

Organization
------------

Realmark Property Investors Limited Partnership - III (the Partnership), a
Delaware limited partnership, was formed on November 18, 1983, to invest in a
diversified portfolio of income-producing real estate investments. The general
partners are Realmark Properties, Inc. (the corporate general partner) and
Joseph M. Jayson (the individual general partner). Joseph M. Jayson is the sole
shareholder of J.M. Jayson & Company, Inc. Realmark Properties, Inc. is a wholly
owned subsidiary of J.M. Jayson & Company, Inc. Under the partnership agreement,
the general partners and their affiliates can receive compensation for services
rendered and reimbursement for expenses incurred on behalf of the Partnership.

Basis of Presentation
---------------------

As a result of the plan termination and liquidation, the Partnership changed its
basis of accounting to the liquidation basis effective May 21, 2004. Under the
liquidation basis of accounting, assets are stated at their estimated net
realizable values and liabilities are stated at their estimated settlement
amounts.

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do
not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial
statements. The balance sheet at December 31, 2003 has been derived from the
audited financial statements at that date. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary
for a fair presentation, have been included. The Partnership's significant
accounting policies are set forth in its December 31, 2003 Form 10-K. The
interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements included therein. The interim results should not be considered
indicative of the annual results.

Property and Equipment
----------------------

On April 5, 2004, the Partnership closed on the sale of Inducon Amherst,
resulting in a gain of $19,501. On May 20, 2004, the Partnership closed on the
sale of its remaining property, Perrymont, resulting in a gain of $144,785.
During 2004 and 2003, the Partnership's properties were being actively marketed
for sale and, therefore, were not being depreciated. Depreciation not recorded
for the period from January 1, 2004 to May 20, 2004 was approximately $94,000.
Depreciation not recorded in the three and nine month periods ended September
30, 2003 was approximately $66,000 and $195,000, respectively. As of September
30, 2004, the Partnership does not have an interest in any property or
equipment.

PART I - Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
                 -----------------------------------------------------------
                 and Results of Operations
                 -------------------------

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

Since January 1, 2001, the Partnership's remaining properties, Perrymont and
Inducon Amherst, had been actively marketed for sale. On April 5, 2004, the
Partnership sold Inducon Amherst to an unaffiliated entity for cash of
$2,045,000. After satisfaction of the $1,700,000 mortgage loan on the property,
including a prepayment penalty, and payment of closing costs, the net proceeds
available amounted to approximately $425,000, before satisfaction of any
remaining obligations related to the property. On May 20, 2004, the Partnership
sold Perrymont to an unaffiliated entity for cash of $2,450,000, less a $600,000
credit for work that the buyer has determined is necessary on the property. The
net proceeds available amounted to approximately $1,658,000, before satisfaction
of any remaining obligations related to the property.

Prior to the sale of Inducon Amherst and Perrymont, the Partnership maintained a
cash position adequate to fund capital improvements and scheduled debt payments.

Results of Operations
---------------------

As a result of the sale of the remaining properties, Inducon Amherst and
Perrymont, and the establishment of a plan of liquidation, the Partnership began
reporting on the liquidation basis of accounting effective May 21, 2004.
Therefore, operations for the period May 21, 2004 to September 30, 2004 are
reported on the statement of changes in net assets in liquidation while the
operations for the period January 1, 2004 to May 20, 2004 and for the three and

                                        5
<PAGE>
nine months ended September 30, 2003 are reported on the condensed consolidated
statement of operations.

As discussed above, the Partnership began reporting on the liquidation basis of
accounting effective May 21, 2004. The only significant changes as of September
30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003 are the sales of the remaining
properties, Inducon Amherst and Perrymont.

PART I - Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
                 ----------------------------------------------------------

The Partnership's cash equivalents are short-term, non-interest bearing bank
accounts. It has not entered into any derivative contracts. Therefore, it has no
market risk exposure.

PART I - Item 4. Controls and Procedures
                 -----------------------

Disclosure Controls and Procedures: The Partnership's management, with the
participation of the Partnership's Individual General Partner and Principal
Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership's
disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e)

period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Partnership's
Individual General Partner and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that,
as of the end of such period, the Partnership's disclosure controls and
procedures are effective.

Partnership's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule
13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) during the
fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or
are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership's internal control
over financial reporting.
