                                  WITNESSETH:

     1.   PURCHASE AND SALE.  Purchaser agrees to purchase and Seller agrees to
sell at the price of Eighteen Million Eight Hundred Thirty-Three Thousand Three
Hundred Thirty-Three and No/100 Dollars ($18,833,333.00) ("Purchase Price"),
that certain property consisting of 452 condominium apartment units located at

     2.   PURCHASE PRICE.  The Purchase Price shall be paid as follows:

          a.   Upon the execution of this Agreement, the sum of $321,937.00 
     ("Earnest Money") to be held in escrow by the Escrow Agent (as that term 
     is defined in the Escrow Agreement), by and in accordance with the 
     provisions of the Escrow Agreement ("Escrow Agreement") attached hereto as
     Exhibit C;

          b.   On the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined), $18,833,333.00 
     (inclusive of all Earnest Money) adjusted in accordance with the 
     prorations by federally wired "immediately available" funds delivered to 
     the Title Insurer (as hereinafter defined) no later than 12:00 Noon 
     Pacific Time on the Closing Date.  If the funds are not received by 12:00

     an amount equal to any additional mortgage per diem interest costs 
     incurred by the Seller and prorations shall be as of 11:59 P.M. on the 
     Closing Date.

     3.   TITLE COMMITMENT AND SURVEY.

          a.   Attached hereto as Exhibit D is a title commitment with an
effective date of July 26, 1996 ("Title Commitment") for an owner's standard
coverage title insurance policy ("Title Policy") issued by First American Title
Company of Nevada, agent for First American Title Insurance Company ("Title
Insurer").  The owner's Title Policy issued at Closing will be an ALTA policy
in the amount of the Purchase Price subject only to real estate taxes not yet
due and payable, the general printed exceptions set forth in Schedule B-Section
2 (Part I) as Numbers 7, 8 and 9 and the special title exceptions set forth in
Schedule B-Section 2 (Part II) Numbers 4 through 16, 21, 22 and 23 (modified as
to tenants only, as shown on the rent roll) of the Title Commitment.  All of
the above are herein referred to as the "Permitted Exceptions".  On the Closing
Date, Seller shall cause the Title Insurer to issue the Title Policy or a
"marked up" commitment in conformity with the Title Commitment, subject only to
the Permitted Exceptions.  Seller shall pay the costs of the Title Policy;
including the costs of "extended coverage".  Purchaser shall pay for any
special endorsements which Purchaser requires.
<PAGE>
          b.   Purchaser acknowledges receipt of a survey ("Survey") of the
Property prepared by SEA Incorporated and dated January 25, 1996, and Purchaser
approves all of the matters set forth on the Survey.  Prior to the Closing,
Seller (at Seller's cost) will have the Survey updated and re-certified to the
Purchaser, the Title Insurer and Purchaser's lender (if any).  However, if
Purchaser requires any additional survey work, Purchaser shall pay for the cost
of such additional work.

     4.   CONDITION OF TITLE/CONVEYANCE.  Seller agrees to convey fee simple
title to the Property by Grant, Bargain, Sale Deed ("Deed") in recordable form
subject only to the Permitted Exceptions.  If Seller is unable to convey title
to the Property subject only to the Permitted Exceptions because of the
existence of an additional title exception ("Unpermitted Exception"), then
Purchaser can elect to take title to the Property subject to the Unpermitted
Exception or terminate this Agreement.  Seller shall be obligated to remove all
liens, judgments and encumbrances of a definite and ascertainable amount.  If
Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the provisions
of this Paragraph, then the Earnest Money plus all accrued interest shall be
delivered to the Purchaser, and Purchaser shall be entitled to recover its
actual non-reimbursed third party expenses in an amount not to exceed the
amount of Earnest Money then on deposit with the Escrow Agent.

     5.   PAYMENT OF CLOSING COSTS.  Purchaser and Seller shall equally share
the costs of the documentary stamps to be paid with reference to the Deed and
all recording costs.

     6.   DAMAGE, CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION.

          a.   If the Property suffers damage as a result of any casualty prior
to the Closing Date and can be repaired or restored in the case of real
property for $250,000 or less, or in the case of Personal Property, for $25,000
or less, then Purchaser can elect (upon notice to Seller served within 20
business days of such casualty) to either: (i) require Seller to commence the
repair or restoration in an expeditious manner, in which event the Closing Date
will be extended until such date as may reasonably be required to complete the
repair or restoration (in which case, Seller shall retain all insurance
proceeds); or (ii) accept the Property in its damaged condition together with
an assignment from Seller of all insurance proceeds and receive a credit at
Closing in the amount of the deductible.  If the cost of repair or restoration
exceeds that amount, then Purchaser can elect to either: (i) require the Seller
to repair and restore same, in which event the Closing Date will be extended
until such date as may reasonably be required to complete the repair or
restoration; or (ii) accept the Property in its damaged condition together with
an assignment from Seller of all insurance proceeds and receive a credit at
Closing in the amount of the deductible; or (iii) terminate this Agreement upon
notice to Seller served within twenty (20) business days of such casualty.  If
Seller repairs or restores the Property in accordance with the provisions of
this Paragraph, then Seller agrees to consult with Purchaser and comply with
any reasonable requests of Purchaser, provided that they do not unduly delay
the completion of the repair or restoration, and provided that they do not
increase the cost of the repair or restoration.
<PAGE>
          b.   If condemnation proceedings ("Proceedings") are instituted
against the Property and the parties reasonably believe that such Proceedings
will result in an award in excess of $100,000.00, then Purchaser can elect to
either take the Property subject to the Proceedings and an assignment of
Seller's interest in the Proceedings or terminate this Agreement.  If the
parties reasonably believe that the Proceedings will result in an award less
than $100,000.00, then Seller will assign to Purchaser all of its right, title
and interest in the Proceedings, and Purchaser shall take the Property subject
to the Proceedings.  If Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement, it shall
be by notice to the Seller within five (5) days after Seller notifies Purchaser
of the Proceedings.

          c.   If the Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Paragraph, then
the Earnest Money plus all accrued interest shall be delivered to the
Purchaser.

     7.   AS-IS CONDITION.

          a.   Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that except as may otherwise

     16.  DOCUMENTS, INSPECTION OF PROPERTY AND APPROVAL PERIOD.

          a.   Seller has delivered to Purchaser copies of the most recent
available tax bills, rent rolls, insurance premiums, service contracts and
other documents (collectively the "Documents").  All of the Documents shall be
subject to approval by Purchaser by the close of business (5:00 P.M. Central
Time) on November 29, 1996 ("Approval Period").  During the Approval Period,
upon reasonable notice to the Seller, the Purchaser shall have the right to
inspect and approve the condition of the Property including the interior of the
apartments, during normal business hours.  Purchaser, its engineers,
architects, employees, contractors and agents shall maintain public liability
insurance policies insuring against claims arising as a result of the
inspections of the Property being conducted by Purchaser.  Prior to commencing
any tests, studies and investigations, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller a
certificate of insurance evidencing the existence of the aforesaid policies and
naming Seller as an additional insured.  Purchaser agrees to indemnify, defend,
protect and hold Seller harmless from any and all loss, costs, including

lender onto the Property, including without limitation, liability for
mechanics' lien claims.

          b.   Purchaser agrees to defend and hold Seller harmless from any
injuries, damages or claims of any nature whatsoever which Purchaser's

which may arise as a result of Purchaser's inspection of the Property.

          c.   If Purchaser disapproves the Documents or the condition of the

("Notice of Disapproval") delivered to Seller and the Escrow Agent prior to the
expiration of the Approval Period.  The Notice of Disapproval delivered to
Seller shall be accompanied with copies of all reports ("Reports") which
Purchaser has received during the Approval Period.  Upon receipt of the Notice
of Disapproval and copies of the Reports, the Earnest Money plus the interest
accrued thereon shall be returned to the Purchaser.  If Purchaser does not
deliver a Notice of Disapproval and copies of the Reports to Seller, then it
shall be conclusively presumed that Purchaser has approved the Documents and
the condition of the Property and all Earnest Money plus the interest accrued
thereon shall belong to Seller unless Seller is in default hereunder.

          d.   If at any time prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser discovers
any fact or circumstance which would cause a representation or warranty of
Seller to be untrue or misleading, or with the passage of time would become
untrue or misleading and Purchaser fails to notify Seller of such fact or
circumstance, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived its right to seek
damages or termination of this Agreement.

     20.  LIMITATION OF SELLER'S LIABILITY.  No general or limited partner of
Seller, nor any of its respective beneficiaries, shareholders, partners,
officers, agents, employees, heirs, successors or assigns shall have any
personal liability of any kind or nature for or by reason of any matter or
thing whatsoever under, in connection with, arising out of or in any way
related to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein, and
Purchaser hereby waives for itself and anyone who may claim by, through or
under Purchaser any and all rights to sue or recover on account of any such
alleged personal liability.

     21.  ORGANIZATIONAL DOCUMENTS.  On the Closing Date, Purchaser and Seller
will provide each other's attorney with copies of its organizational documents,
including a certified copy of its recorded certificate of limited partnership
and a true copy of its Partnership Agreement or a certified copy of its
Articles of Incorporation, corporate resolutions authorizing the transaction,
and an incumbency certificate, whichever is applicable.  No later than ten (10)
business days prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller
a copy of its signature block.

     22.  TIME OF ESSENCE.  Time is of the essence of this Agreement.

     23.  CROSS DEFAULT/OTHER AGREEMENTS.  Simultaneously with the execution of
this Agreement, the Purchaser has entered into two other agreements ("Other
Agreements") with Westwood Pointe Associates and Springs Pointe Investors to
acquire Westwood Pointe Apartments, Las Vegas, Nevada and Springs Pointe
Apartments, Las Vegas, Nevada, respectively.  Each party hereto acknowledges
that it would not have entered into this Agreement if Purchaser and the sellers
under the Other Agreements had not executed the Other Agreements.  A default by
the Purchaser under either of the Other Agreements shall be a default by
Purchaser under this Agreement.  A default by a seller under either of the
Other Agreements shall be a default by Seller under this Agreement.  If
Purchaser exercises its right of termination under this Agreement, then the
<PAGE>
Other Agreements shall automatically be terminated without further action by
either party.  In such event, unless this Agreement is terminated because of a
default by Purchaser, the Earnest Money plus the interest accrued thereon shall
be returned to Purchaser.  If there is a termination of this Agreement and the
Other Agreements because of a default by a seller, then any cost recoverable by
Purchaser which was incurred for all of the properties shall be prorated among
all of them.

     24.  DISTRIBUTIONS.  For a period of ninety (90) days after the Closing
Date, Seller shall not distribute $321,937.00 to its partners from the proceeds
of the net cash received from the Purchaser.  If Purchaser alleges a claim for
damage against Seller after the Closing Date but prior to the expiration of the
aforesaid ninety (90) day period ("Claim"), then the Seller shall continue to
withhold distribution of the funds in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the
amount of the Claim, or (ii) $321,937.00, until the Claim is resolved.  The
Claim shall specify the exact representation, warranty or covenant which was
breached and the amount of damages the Purchaser alleges it has sustained.  If
Seller fails to withhold the amount of the distribution of the funds in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, then the general partner
shall have personal liability in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the
amount of the Claim or (ii) $321,937.00.

     25.  NOTICES.  Any notice or demand which either party hereto is required
or may desire to give or deliver to or make upon the other party shall be in
writing and may be personally delivered or given or made by overnight courier
such as Federal Express or by facsimile or made by United States registered or
