PART I.

ITEM 1.      BUSINESS:

Real Estate Associates Limited V ("REAL V" or the "Partnership") is a limited
partnership which was formed under the laws of the State of California on May
7, 1982.  On July 7, 1982, Real Estate Associates Limited V offered 1,950 units
consisting of 3,900 Limited Partnership Interests and Warrants to purchase
3,900 Additional Limited Partnership Interests through a public offering,
managed by Lehman Brothers, Inc.

The general partners of REAL V are National Partnership Investments Corp.
("NAPICO"), a California Corporation (the "Corporate General Partner"), and
National Partnership Investments Associates II, a limited partnership formed
under the California Limited Partnership Act and consisting of Mr. Charles H.
Boxenbaum and an unrelated individual, as limited partners and NAPICO as
general partner ("NAPIA II").  The business of REAL V is conducted primarily by
its general partners as REAL V has no employees of its own.

NAPICO is a wholly owned subsidiary of Casden Investment Corporation ("CIC"),
which is wholly owned by Alan I. Casden. The current members of NAPICO's Board
of Directors are Charles H.  Boxenbaum, Bruce E. Nelson, Alan I. Casden, Henry
C. Casden and Brian D. Goldberg.

REAL V holds limited partnership interests in nineteen local limited
partnerships as of December 31, 1996.  Primarily all of these limited
partnerships own a low income housing project which is subsidized and/or has a
mortgage note payable to or insured by agencies of the federal or local
government.

In order to stimulate private investment in low income housing, the federal
government and certain state and local agencies have provided significant
ownership incentives, including among others, interest subsidies, rent
supplements, and mortgage insurance, with the intent of reducing certain market
risks and providing investors with certain tax benefits, plus limited cash
distributions and the possibility of long-term capital gains.  There remain,
however, significant risks.  The long-term nature of investments in government
assisted housing limits the ability of REAL V to vary its portfolio in response
to changing economic, financial and investment conditions;  such investments
are also subject to changes in local economic circumstances and housing
patterns, as well as rising operating costs, vacancies, rent collection
difficulties, energy shortages and other factors which have an impact on real
estate values.  These projects also require greater management expertise and
may have higher operating expenses than conventional housing projects.

The partnerships in which REAL V has invested were, at least initially,
organized by private developers who acquired the sites, or options thereon, and
applied for applicable mortgage insurance and subsidies.  REAL V became the
principal limited partner in these local limited partnerships pursuant to
arm's-length negotiations with these developers, or others, who act as general
partners.  As a limited partner, REAL V's liability for obligations of the
local limited partnership is limited to its investment.  The local general
partner of the local limited partnership retains responsibility for developing,
constructing, maintaining, operating and managing the project.  Under certain
circumstances, REAL V has the right to replace the general partner of the local
limited partnership.

Although each of the partnerships in which REAL V has invested generally owns a
project which must compete in the market place for tenants, interest subsidies
and rent supplements from governmental agencies make it possible to offer these
dwelling units to eligible "low income" tenants at a cost significantly below
the market rate for comparable conventionally financed dwelling units in the
area.

During 1996, all of the projects in which REAL V had invested were
substantially rented.  The following is a schedule of the status as of December
31, 1996, of the projects owned by local limited partnerships in which REAL V
is a limited partner.

anticipated that any public market will develop for the purchase and sale of
any partnership interest.  Limited Partnership interests may be transferred
only if certain requirements are satisfied.  At December 31, 1996, there were
1,497 registered holders of units in REAL V.  No distributions have been made
from the inception of the Partnership to December 31, 1996.  The Partnership
has invested in certain government assisted projects under programs which in
many instances restrict the cash return available to project owners.  The
Partnership was not designed to provide cash distributions to investors in
circumstances other than refinancing or disposition.

ITEM 7.      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL AND RESULTS OF
             OPERATIONS:

LIQUIDITY

The Partnership's primary sources of funds include interest income on money
market funds and certificates of deposit and distributions from local
partnership in which the Partnership has invested.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

REAL V received $9,750,000 in subscriptions for units of limited partnership
interests (at $5,000 per unit) during the period July 7, 1982, to October 4,
1982, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-11.  As of March 31, 1983,
REAL V received an additional $9,765,000 in subscriptions pursuant to the
exercise of warrants and the sale of additional limited partnership interests.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Partnership was formed to provide various benefits to its partners as
discussed in Item 1.  It is anticipated that the local limited partnerships in
which REAL V has invested could produce tax losses for as long as 20 years.
Tax benefits will decline over time as the advantages of accelerated
depreciation are greatest in the earlier years, as deductions for interest
expense will decrease as mortgage principal is amortized and as the Tax Reform
Act of 1986 limits the deductions available.

At December 31, 1996, the Partnership has investments in 19 limited
partnerships, all of which own housing projects that were substantially all
rented. The Partnership, as a limited partner, is entitled to 75% to 99% of the
profits and losses of the local limited partnerships. The Partnership accounts
for its investments in the local limited partnerships on the equity method,
thereby adjusting its investment balance by its proportionate share of the
income or loss of the local limited partnerships. Equity in losses of limited
partnerships is recognized in the financial statements until the limited
partnership investment account is reduced to a zero balance. Losses incurred
after the limited partnership investment account is reduced to zero are not
recognized. Limited partners are not liable for losses beyond their contributed
capital. At December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the Partnership has a positive
investment balance in only three local limited partnerships.

Distributions received from limited partnerships are recognized as return of
capital until the investment balance has been reduced to zero or to a negative
amount equal to future capital contributions required.  Subsequent
distributions received are recognized as income.

The total losses from the 19 local limited partnerships that were allocated to
the Partnership were $59,000, $41,000 and $107,000 for the years ended December
31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. However, because losses incurred after
the investment account is reduced to a zero balance are not recognized, the
Partnership recognized equity in income of limited partnerships, substantially
all from the three partnerships with a positive investment balance, of
$371,644, $455,651 and $393,230 for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and
1994. During the year ended December 31, 1996, the Partnership contributed
$19,568 to a local limited partnership, thereby allowing the Partnership to
recognize a loss from that partnership in that amount, which reduced the income
recognized from the partnerships with positive investment balances. The
cumulative amount of the unrecognized equity in losses of certain limited
partnerships was approximately $6,389,000 and $5,949,000 as of December 31,
1996 and 1995, respectively.

Distributions from the local limited partnerships in which the Partnership did
not have a positive investment balance were $215,140, $221,276 and $218,651 for
the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. These amounts
were recognized as income on the accompanying statements of operations, in
accordance with the equity method of accounting.

As of December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the Partnership has cash and cash
equivalents of $1,953,506, $1,876,153 and $1,708,014, respectively. These
amounts are on deposit primarily with one high credit quality financial
institution. Approximately $1,905,000, $1,875,000 and $1,707,000 of the balance
at December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively, was invested in cash
equivalents earning interest. This resulted in the Partnership earning $65,261,
$60,997 and $44,640 in interest income for the years ended December 31, 1996,
1995 and 1994, respectively. The amount of interest income varies with market
rates available on deposits and with the amount of funds available for
investment. Cash equivalents can be converted to cash to meet obligations of the
Partnership as they arise. The Partnership intends to continue investing
available funds in this manner.

A recurring partnership expense is the annual management fee. The fee is
payable to the Corporate General Partner of the Partnership and is calculated
at 4 percent of the Partnership's invested assets. The management fee is paid
to the Corporate General Partner for its continuing management of partnership
affairs. The fee is payable beginning with the month following the
Partnership's initial investment in a local limited partnership. Since the
invested assets have not changed during each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1996, management fees have remained constant at $254,448 for
each of these years.

Operating expenses, other than management fees, consist of legal and accounting
fees for services rendered to the Partnership and administrative expenses,
which were generally consistent for the three years presented. Legal and
accounting fees were $50,013, $40,173 and $50,860 for the years ended December
31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Administrative expenses were $48,342,
$53,592 and $45,130 for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively. Included in administrative expenses are reimbursements to NAPICO
for certain expenses, which totalled $19,287, $17,820 and $17,171 for the years
ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

<PAGE>   8
The results of operations of the local limited partnerships were fairly constant
during the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994. Contributing to the
relative stability of operations at the local partnerships is the fact that a
large portion of the local partnerships are operating apartment projects which
are subsidized and have mortgage notes payable to or insured by agencies of the
federal or local government. Currently, eighteen of the nineteen local
partnerships are receiving rental subsidies.

Total revenue for the 19 local partnerships has remained fairly constant, and
was $12,644,000, $12,614,000 and $12,798,000 for the years ended December 31,
1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

Total expenses for the 19 local partnerships remained fairly consistent, and
were $12,702,000, $12,703,000 and $12,953,000 for the years ended December 31,
1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Expenses decreased by $250,000 from 1994 and
1995 primarily as a result of a decrease in depreciation expense of $236,000
from 1994 and 1995, due to certain items becoming fully depreciated.

The total net loss for the 19 local partnerships for 1996, 1995 and 1994
aggregated $59,000, $89,000 and $155,000, respectively. The losses allocated to
the partnership were $59,000, $41,000 and $107,000 for 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively.

The Partnership, as a limited partner in the local limited partnerships in
which it has invested, is subject to the risks incident to the construction,
management, and ownership of improved real estate.  The Partnership investments
are also subject to adverse general economic conditions, and accordingly, the
status of the national economy, including substantial unemployment and
concurrent inflation, could increase vacancy levels, rental payment defaults,
and operating expenses, which in turn, could substantially increase the risk of
operating losses for the projects.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Partners of
Real Estate Associates Limited V
(A California limited partnership)

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Real Estate Associates
Limited V (a California limited partnership) as of December 31, 1996 and 1995,
and the related statements of operations, partners' equity (deficiency) and
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996.
Our audits also included the financial statement schedules listed in the index
on item 14.  These financial statements and financial statement schedules are
the responsibility of the management of the Partnership.  Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement
schedules based on our audits.  We did not audit the financial statements of
certain limited partnerships, the investments in which are reflected in the
accompanying financial statements using the equity method of accounting.  The
investments in these limited partnerships represent 31 percent and 26 percent
of total assets as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively, and the equity
in income of these limited partnerships represents 40 percent, 42 percent and
39 percent of the total net income of the Partnership for the years ended
December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively, and represent a substantial
portion of the investee information in Note 2 and the financial statement
schedules.  The financial statements of these limited partnerships are audited
by other auditors.  Their reports have been furnished to us and our opinion,
insofar as it relates to the amounts included for these limited partnerships,
is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe our audits and the reports of other
auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, the
financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Real Estate Associates Limited V as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996 in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.  Also, in our
opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, such financial
statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the
information set forth therein.

Project No.114-35266-PM-L8 (a limited partnership), as of December 31, 1996,
and the related statements of profit and loss, changes in partners' equity and
cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the

express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of
the United States and the July, 1993, Consolidated Audit Guide for Audits of
HUD Programs. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the above mentioned financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Heritage Square, Ltd. as of
December 31, 1996, and the results of its operations and the changes in
partners' equity and cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards and the Consolidated Audit
Guide for Audits of HUD Programs, we have also issued a report dated February
4, 1997 on our consideration of the Partnership's internal control structure

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               DECEMBER 31, 1996

1.     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

       Organization

       Real Estate Associates Limited V (the "Partnership"), formed under the
       California Limited Partnership Act, was organized on May 7, 1982.  The
       Partnership was formed to invest primarily in other limited
       partnerships, which own and operate primarily federal, state or local
       government-assisted housing projects.  The general partners of the
       Partnership are National Partnership Investments Corp. (NAPICO), the
       corporate general partner, and National Partnership Investments
       Associates II (NAPIA II), a limited partnership.   Casden Investment
       Corporation owns 100 percent of NAPICO's stock.  The general partner of
       NAPIA II is NAPICO.

       The Partnership offered and issued 1,950 units of limited partner
       interests through a public offering.  Each unit was comprised of two
       limited partner interests and a warrant granting the investor the right
       to purchase two additional limited partner interests.  An additional
       3,908 interests were issued from the exercise of warrants and the sale
       of interests associated with warrants not exercised.  The general
       partners have a 1 percent interest in profits and losses of the
       Partnership.  The limited partners have the remaining 99 percent
       interest in proportion to their respective investments.

       The Partnership shall be dissolved only upon the expiration of 52
       complete calendar years (December 31, 2034) from the date of the
       formation of the Partnership or the occurrence of other events as
       specified in the Partnership agreement.

       Upon total or partial liquidation of the Partnership or the disposition
       or partial disposition of a project or project interest and distribution
       of the proceeds, the general partners will be entitled to a liquidation
       fee as stipulated in the Partnership agreement.  The limited partners
       will have a priority return equal to their invested capital attributable
       to the project(s) or project interest(s) sold and shall receive from the
       sale of the project(s) or project interest(s) an amount sufficient to
       pay state and federal income taxes, if any, calculated at the maximum
       rate then in effect.  The general partners' liquidation fee may accrue
       but shall not be paid until the limited partners have received
       distributions equal to 100 percent of their capital contributions.

       Use of Estimates

       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 reported amounts of revenues and expenses
       during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those
       estimates.

       Method of Accounting for Investments in Limited Partnerships

       The investments in limited partnerships are accounted for on the equity
       method.  Acquisition, selection and other costs related to the
       acquisition of the projects have been capitalized as part of the
       investment account and are being amortized on a straight line basis over
       the estimated lives of the underlying assets, which is generally 30
       years.

                               DECEMBER 31, 1996

1.     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

       Net Income Per Limited Partnership Interest

       Net income per limited partner interest was computed by dividing the
       limited partners' share of net income by the number of limited
       partnership interests outstanding during the year.  The number of
       limited partnership interests was 7,808 for all years presented.

       Cash and Cash Equivalents

       Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and bank certificates of
       deposit with an original maturity of three months or less.  The
       Partnership has its cash and cash equivalents on deposit primarily with
       one high credit quality financial institution.  Such cash and cash
       equivalents are in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.

       Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

       The Partnership reviews long-lived assets to determine if there has been
       any permanent impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
       indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable.
       If the sum of the expected future cash flows is less than the carrying
       amount of the assets, the Partnership recognizes an impairment loss.

2.     INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS

       The Partnership holds limited partnership interests in 19 limited
       partnerships.  The partnerships own residential low income rental
       projects consisting of 1,319 apartment units.  The mortgage loans of
       these projects are payable to or insured by various governmental
       agencies.

       The Partnership, as a limited partner, is entitled to 75 percent to 99
       percent of the profits and losses in these limited partnerships.

       Equity in losses of limited partnerships is recognized in the financial
       statements until the limited partnership investment account is reduced
       to a zero balance.  Losses incurred after the limited partnership
       investment account is reduced to zero are not recognized.  Limited
       partners are not liable for losses beyond their contributed capital.
       The cumulative amount of the unrecognized equity in losses of certain
       limited partnerships was approximately $6,389,000 and $5,949,000 as of
       December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

       Distributions from the limited partnerships are accounted for as a
       return of capital until the investment balance is reduced to zero or to
       a negative amount equal to further capital contributions required.
       Subsequent distributions received are recognized as income.

       The difference between the investment in the accompanying balance sheets
       at December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the deficiency per the limited
       partnerships' combined financial statements is due primarily to
       cumulative unrecognized equity in losses of certain limited
       partnerships, costs capitalized to the investment account and cumulative
       distributions recognized as income.

       Selected financial information from the combined financial statements of
       the limited partnerships at December 31, 1996 and 1995 and for each of
       the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996 is as follows:

       Land and buildings, above, have been adjusted for the amount by which
       the investment in the limited partnerships exceeds the Partnership's
       share of the net book value of the underlying net assets of the investee
       which are recorded at historical costs.  Depreciation on the adjustment
       is provided for over the estimated remaining useful lives of the
       properties.

       An affiliate of NAPICO is the general partner in 4 of the limited
       partnerships included above, and another affiliate receives property
       management fees of approximately 5 to 6 percent of their revenue.  The
       affiliate received property management fees of $42,600, $41,359 and
       $33,401 in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively  The following sets forth
       the significant data for these partnerships, reflected in the

                       (a California limited partnership)

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
                               DECEMBER 31, 1996



3.     FEES AND EXPENSES DUE GENERAL PARTNER

       Under the terms of the Restated Certificate and Agreement of Limited
       Partners, the Partnership is obligated to NAPICO for an annual
       management fee equal to .4 percent of the original invested assets of
       the limited partnerships.  Invested assets is defined as the costs of
       acquiring project interests, including the proportionate amount of the
       mortgage loans related to the Partnership's interest in the capital
       accounts of the respective partnerships.

       The Partnership reimburses NAPICO for certain expenses.  The
       reimbursement to NAPICO was $19,287, $17,820 and $17,171 in 1996, 1995
       and 1994, respectively, and is included in operating expenses.

4.     CONTINGENCIES

       The corporate general partner of the Partnership is a plaintiff in
       various lawsuits and has also been named as a defendant in other
       lawsuits arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business.
       In the opinion of management and the corporate general partner, the
       claims will not result in any material liability to the Partnership.

5.     INCOME TAXES

       No provision has been made for income taxes in the accompanying
       financial statements since such taxes, if any, are the liability of the
       individual partners.  The major differences in tax and financial
       reporting result from the use of different bases and depreciation
       methods for the properties held by the limited partnerships.
       Differences in tax and financial reporting also arise as losses are not
       recognized for financial reporting purposes when the investment balance
       has been reduced to zero or to a negative amount equal to further
       capital contributions required.

6.     FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

       Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosure about
       Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure of fair value
       information about financial instruments.  The carrying amount of assets
       and liabilities reported on the balance sheets that require such
       disclosure approximates fair value due to their short-term maturity.

7.     FOURTH-QUARTER ADJUSTMENT

       The Partnership's policy is to record its equity in income (loss) of
       limited partnerships on a quarterly basis, using estimated financial
       information furnished by the various local operating general partners.
       The equity in income (loss) reflected in the accompanying annual
       financial statements is based primarily upon audited financial
       statements of the investee limited partnerships.  The decrease of
       approximately $3,000, between the estimated nine-month equity in income
       and the actual 1996 year end equity in income has been recorded in the
       fourth quarter.

NOTES:     1.    Equity in income and losses in investments in limited
                 partnerships represents the Partnership's allocable share of
                 the net results of operations from the limited partnerships
                 for the year.  Equity in losses of the limited partnerships
                 will be recognized until the investment balance is reduced to
                 zero or below zero to an amount equal to future capital
                 contributions to be made by the Partnership.

           2.    Cash distributions from the limited partnerships are treated
                 as a return of the investment and reduce the investment
                 balance until such time as the investment is reduced to an
                 amount equal to additional contributions.  Distributions
                 subsequently received will be recognized as income.

NOTES:     1.    Each local limited partnership is developing or has developed,
                 owns and operates the housing project.  Substantially all
                 project costs, including construction period interest expense,
                 are being capitalized by the limited partnerships.

           2.    Depreciation is provided for by various methods over the
                 estimated useful lives of the projects.  The estimated
                 composite useful lives of the buildings are generally from 25
                 to 40 years.
