AMERICA FIRST PREP FUND 2 PENSION SERIES LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1997
(UNAUDITED)

1. Organization

America First PREP Fund 2 Pension Series Limited Partnership (the Partnership) 
was formed on February 2, 1988, under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited 
Partnership Act for the purpose of acquiring a portfolio of federally-insured 
multifamily mortgages and other investments including preferred real estate 
participations (PREPs).  PREPs consist of equity interests which are intended 
to provide the Partnership with a participation in the net cash flow and net 
sale or refinancing proceeds of the properties collateralizing the mortgage 
loans.  The Partnership began operations with the first escrow closing on May 
25, 1988, and will continue in existence until December 31, 2017, unless 
terminated earlier under the provisions of the Partnership Agreement.  The 
General Partner of the Partnership is America First Capital Associates Limited 
Partnership Six (AFCA 6).    

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 A) Financial Statement Presentation
    The financial statements of the Partnership are prepared without audit on 
    the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted 
    accounting principles.  The 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 for the year ended December 
    31, 1996.  In the opinion of	management, all normal and recurring 
    adjustments necessary to present fairly	the financial position at March 
    31, 1997, and results of operations for all periods presented	have been 
    made.

    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally 
    accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and 
    assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 
    disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the 
    financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses 
    during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those 
    estimates.

 B) Investment in Mortgage-Backed Securities
    Investment securities are classified as held-to-maturity, 
    available-for-sale, or trading.  Investments classified as 
    held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost.  Investments classified as 
    available-for-sale are reported at fair value with any unrealized gains or 
    losses excluded from earnings and reflected as a separate component of 
    partners' capital.  Subsequent increases and decreases in the net 
    unrealized gain/loss on the available-for-sale securities are reflected as 
    adjustments to the carrying value of the portfolio and adjustments to the 
    component of partners' capital.  The Partnership does not have investment 
    securities classified as trading.

 C) Investment in PREPs
    The investment in PREPs consists of interests in limited partnerships 
    which own properties underlying the mortgage-backed securities and are 
    accounted for	using the equity method.  When an investment in a PREP has 
    been reduced to zero, earnings are recorded to the extent that 
    distributions are received.  PREPs are not insured or guaranteed.  The 
    value of these investments is a function of the value of the real estate 
    underlying the PREPs.

 D) Allowance for Losses on Investments in PREPs
    The allowance for losses on investments in PREPs is a valuation reserve 
    which has been established at a level that management feels is adequate to 
    absorb potential losses on investments in PREPs.  The allowance is based 
    on management's best estimate of the net realizable value of such 
    properties; however, the ultimate realized values may vary from these 
    estimates.  The allowance is periodically reviewed and adjustments are 
    made to the allowance when there are significant changes in the estimated 
    net realizable value of the properties underlying the PREPs.

 E) Income Taxes
    No provision has been made for income taxes since Beneficial Unit 
			 Certificate (BUC) Holders are required to report their share of the 
			 Partnership's income for federal and state income tax purposes.

 F) Temporary Cash Investments
    Temporary cash investments are invested in short-term debt securities 
			 purchased with an original maturity of three months or less. 

	G) Net Income Per BUC
			 Net income per BUC has been calculated based on the number of BUCs 
			 outstanding (905,974) for all periods presented.

3. Partnership Reserve Account

The Partnership maintains a reserve account which consisted of the following 
at March 31, 1997:

																																																																						===============
</TABLE>

The reserve account was established to maintain working capital for the 
Partnership and is available for distribution to BUC Holders and for any 
contingencies related to Permanent Investments and the operation of the 
Partnership.  See Note 5 regarding the investment in mortgage-backed 
securities.

4. Partnership Income, Expenses and Cash Distributions

The Partnership Agreement contains provisions for distributing the cash 
available for distribution and for the allocation of income and expenses for 
tax purposes among AFCA 6 and BUC Holders.    	

Cash distributions included in the financial statements represent the actual 
cash distributions made during each period, and the cash distributions accrued 
at the end of each period.

5. Investment in Mortgage-Backed Securities

The mortgage-backed securities held by the Partnership represent Government 
National Mortgage Association (GNMA) Certificates and Federal National 
Mortgage Association (FNMA) Certificates.  The GNMA Certificates are backed by 
first mortgage loans on multifamily housing properties and pools of 
single-family properties.  The FNMA Certificates are backed by pools of 
single-family properties.  The GNMA Certificates are debt securities issued by 
a private mortgage lender and are guaranteed by GNMA as to the full and timely 
payment of principal and interest on the underlying loans.  The FNMA 
Certificates are debt securities issued by FNMA and are guaranteed as to the 
full and timely payment of principal and interest on the underlying loans.

At March 31, 1997, the total amortized cost, gross unrealized holding gains, 
gross unrealized holding losses, and aggregate fair value of 
available-for-sale securities are $2,533,534, $14,548, $64,791 and $2,483,291, 
respectively.  The total amortized cost, gross unrealized holding gains, gross 
unrealized holding losses, and aggregate fair value of held-to-maturity 
securities are $5,346,559, $129,182, $286,542 and $5,189,199, respectively.

6.	Investment in PREPs

The Partnership's PREPs consist of interests in limited partnerships which own 
multifamily properties financed by the Partnership.  The limited partnership 
agreements originally provided for the payment of a base return on the equity 
provided to the limited partnerships and for the payment of additional amounts 
out of a portion of the net cash flow or net sale or refinancing proceeds of 
the properties subject to various priority payments.  Certain of the 
agreements have been amended to defer payment of the base return.

7. Transactions with Related Parties

Substantially all the Partnership's general and administrative expenses are 
paid by AFCA 6 or an affiliate and reimbursed by the Partnership.  The amount 
of such expenses reimbursed to AFCA 6 during 1997 was $44,659.  The reimbursed 
expenses are presented on a cash basis and do not reflect accruals made at 
quarter end.

AFCA 6 is entitled to an administrative fee of .35% per annum of the 
outstanding principal amounts invested in mortgage-backed securities, PREPs, 
and temporary cash investments to be paid by the Partnership to the extent 
such amount is not paid by property owners.  During 1997, AFCA 6 earned 
administrative fees of $6,265, all of which was paid by the Partnership.

The general partner of the property partnership which owns Owings Chase 
Apartments is principally owned by an employee of an affiliate of AFCA 6.  
Such employee has a nominal interest in the affiliate.  Affiliates of AFCA 6 
also own small interests in the general partner.  The general partner has a 
nominal interest in the property partnership's profits, losses and cash flow 
which is subordinate to the interest of the Partnership.  The general partner 
did not receive cash distributions from the property partnership in 1997.

An affiliate of AFCA 6 has been retained to provide property management 
services for Laurel Park Apartments and Owings Chase Apartments.  The fees for 
services provided represent the lower of (i) costs incurred in providing 
management of the property, or (ii) customary fees for such services 
determined on a competitive basis and amounted to $10,459 in 1997.

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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Partnership originally acquired: (i) five mortgage-backed securities 
guaranteed as to principal and interest by the Government National Mortgage 
Association (GNMA) collateralized by first mortgage loans on multifamily 
housing properties located in four states (the GNMA Certificates); (ii) 
various mortgage-backed securities collateralized by pools of single-family 
mortgages and guaranteed a to principal and interest by either GNMA or the 
Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) (the Single-Family Certificates); 
and (iii) limited partnership interests (PREPs) in five limited partnerships 
which own the multifamily housing properties financed by the GNMA 
Certificates.  The Partnership has been repaid by GNMA on the GNMA 
Certificates collateralized by the Villages at Moonraker, Laurel Park 
Apartments and, during January of 1997, Ashwood Apartments. During 1995, the 
Partnership withdrew as a limited partner of the operating partnership which 
owns the Villages at Moonraker and, therefore, no longer holds its PREP in 
this property.  During the fourth quarter of 1996, the Partnership sold its 
PREP in Ashwood Apartments.  The Partnership has retained its PREP in Laurel 
Park Apartments.  Collectively, the two remaining GNMA Certificates and the 
three remaining PREPs are referred to as the Permanent Investments.  In 
addition, the Partnership held four Single-Family Certificates at March 31, 
1997.

The following table shows the occupancy levels of the properties financed by 
the Partnership, in which the Partnership continues to hold an equity 
interest, at March 31, 1997.

Regular monthly distributions to investors consist primarily of interest and 
principal received on GNMA Certificates and Single-Family Certificates. 
Additional cash for distributions is received from PREPs and temporary cash 
investments.  The Partnership may draw on reserves to pay operating expenses 
or to supplement cash distributions to BUC Holders.  The Partnership is 
permitted to replenish its reserves through the sale or refinancing of 
assets.  During 1997, a net amount of $520,875 of undistributed mortgage 
principal payments was placed in reserves.  The total amount held in reserves 
at March 31, 1997, was $4,992,862 of which $2,483,291 was invested in 
Single-Family Certificates.  

The Partnership believes that cash provided by operating and investing 
activities and, if necessary, withdrawals from the Partnership's reserves will 
be adequate to meet its short-term and long-term liquidity requirements, 
including the payments of distributions to BUC Holders.  Under the terms of 
the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership has the authority to enter into 
short-term and long-term debt financing arrangements; however, the Partnership 
currently does not anticipate entering into such arrangements.  The 
Partnership is not authorized to issue additional BUCs to meet short-term and 
long-term liquidity requirements.

Asset Quality

The Partnership continues to receive monthly principal and interest payments 
on its GNMA Certificates and Single-family Certificates which are fully 
guaranteed either by GNMA or FNMA.  The obligations of GNMA are backed by the 
full faith and credit of the United States government.  

PREPs, however, are not insured or guaranteed.  The value of these investments 
is a function of the value of the real estate underlying the PREPs.  It is the 
policy of the Partnership to make a periodic review of the real estate 
underlying the PREPs in order to establish, when necessary, a valuation 
reserve on the investment in PREPs.  The allowance for losses on investment in 
PREPs is based on the fair value of the properties underlying the PREPs.  The 
fair value of the properties underlying the PREPs is based on management's 
best estimate of the net realizable value of such properties; however, the 
ultimate realized values may vary from these estimates.  The allowance is 
periodically reviewed and adjustments are made to the allowance when there are 
significant changes in the estimated net realizable value of the properties 
underlying the PREPs.  Internal property valuations and reviews performed 
during the three months ended March 31, 1997, indicated that the PREPs 
recorded on the balance sheet at March 31, 1997, required no adjustments to 
their current carrying amounts.

In January 1997, GNMA redeemed the GNMA Certificate related to Ashwood 
Apartments by paying the Partnership the full principal amount of $556,444 
plus accrued interest through the redemption date.

The overall status of the Partnership's other Permanent Investments has 
generally remained constant since December 31, 1996.

Mortgage-backed securities income decreased for the quarter ended March 31, 
1997, compared to the same period in 1996.  Approximately $13,000 of such 
decrease was due to the redemption of the GNMA Certificate related to Ashwood 
Apartments with the remaining decrease of approximately $12,600 due to the 
continued amortization of the principal balances of the Partnership's other 
mortgage-backed securities.

Equity in earnings of property partnerships is a function of the cash flow 
received by the Partnership from its interest in the operating partnerships 
which own the properties.  Prior to the write-down of each investment in PREP 
to zero, equity in earnings of property partnerships also reflects the 
Partnership's allocable share of earnings generated by each of the properties. 
Equity in earnings of property partnerships decreased for the quarter ended 
March 31, 1997, compared to the same period in 1996.  Approximately $12,200 of 
such decrease is attributable to the Partnership no longer receiving 
distributions from Ashwood Apartments due to the sale of the Partnership's 
PREP in Ashwood Apartments in December 1996.  The remaining $1,900 decrease 
was a result of a decrease in cash flow received from Broadmoor Court.

The increase in interest on temporary cash investments for the quarter ended 
March 31, 1997, compared to the same period in 1996 was primarily attributable 
to the increase in cash reserves as a result of the redemption of the GNMA 
Certificate related to Ashwood Apartments and the sale of the Partnership's 
PREP in Ashwood Apartments.

General and administrative expenses increased for the quarter ended March 31, 
1997, due primarily to an increase in salaries, which was partially offset by 
an overall decrease in other general and administrative expenses.
