NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
March 31, 2001

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

DEFINITION OF SPECIAL TERMS:
Capitalized terms used in this report have the same meaning as those terms have
in the Partnership's Registration Statement filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on Form S-11. Definitions of these terms are contained in
Article III of the First Amended and Restated Certificate and Agreement of
Limited Partnership, which is incorporated herein by reference.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The Partnership has disposed of its real estate properties. Upon resolution of
the environmental matter disclosed in Note 3 and other post closing matters
related to the sale of the Partnership's properties, the Partnership will make
a liquidating distribution to Partners and dissolve.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The Partnership
utilizes the accrual method of accounting. Under this method, revenues are
recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when incurred.

Preparation of the Partnership's financial statements in conformity with GAAP
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.

The financial information included in these financial statements is unaudited;
however, in management's opinion, all adjustments (consisting of only normal,
recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
operations for the periods included have been made. Results of operations for
the three months ended March 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the
operating results for the year ending December 31, 2001.

Cash equivalents are considered all highly liquid investments with maturity of
three months or less when purchased.

The Partnership has one reportable segment as the Partnership is in the
disposition phase of its life cycle, wherein it is seeking to resolve post-
closing matters related to the properties sold by the Partnership.

Reference is made to the Partnership's annual report for the year ended
December 31, 2000, for a description of other accounting policies and
additional details of the Partnership's financial condition, results of
operations, changes in Partners' capital and changes in cash balances for the
year then ended. The details provided in the notes thereto have not changed
except as a result of normal transactions in the interim or as otherwise
disclosed herein.


2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, subsequent to March 31, 1983, the
Termination of the Offering, the General Partners are entitled to 10% of Cash
Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) as their Subordinated
Partnership Management Fee, provided that Limited Partners first receive
specified non-cumulative annual rates of return on their Capital Investment.

In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, Net Profits (exclusive of
depreciation and Net Profits from the sale or disposition of Partnership
properties) are allocated: first, to the General Partners, in an amount equal
to the greater of the General Partners' Subordinated Partnership Management Fee
or 1% of such Net Profits; and second, the balance, if any, to the Limited
Partners. Net Profits from the sale or disposition of a Partnership property
are allocated: first, to the General Partners, in an amount equal to the
aggregate amount of depreciation previously allocated to them; second, to the
General Partners and the Limited Partners with negative balances in their
capital accounts pro rata in proportion to such respective negative balances,
to the extent of the total of such negative balances; third, to the General
Partners, in an amount necessary to make the aggregate amount of their capital
accounts equal to the greater of the Sale Proceeds to be distributed to the
General Partners with respect to the sale or disposition of such property or 1%
of such Net Profits; and fourth, the balance, if any, to the Limited Partners.
Net Losses (exclusive of depreciation and Net Losses from the sale, disposition
or provision for value impairment of Partnership properties) are allocated 1%
to the General Partners and 99% to the Limited Partners. All depreciation is
allocated 10% to the General Partners and 90% to the Limited Partners. Net
Losses from the sale, disposition or provision for value impairment of
Partnership properties are allocated: first, to the extent that the balance in
the General Partners' capital accounts exceeds their Capital Investment or the
balance in the capital accounts of the Limited Partners exceeds the amount of
their Capital Investment (collectively, the "Excess Balances"), to the General
Partners and the Limited Partners pro rata in proportion to such Excess
Balances until such Excess Balances are reduced to zero; second, to the General
Partners and the Limited Partners and among them (in the ratio which their
respective capital account balances bear to the aggregate of all capital
account balances) until the balance in their capital accounts shall be reduced
to zero; third, the balance, if any, 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the
General Partners. In all events there shall be allocated to the General
Partners not less than 1% of Net Profits and Net Losses from the sale,
disposition or provision for value impairment of a Partnership property. The
General Partners were not entitled to cash distributions for the three months
ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. For the three months ended March 31, 2001 and
2000, the General Partners were allocated Net Profits of $300 and $400,
respectively.

3. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTER:

In 1996, the Managing General Partner became aware of the existence of
hazardous substances in the soil and groundwater under Lakewood Square Shopping
Center ("Lakewood"). In connection with the 1997 sale of Lakewood, the
purchaser assumed the obligation to remedy the hazardous substances in the
manner required by law, which includes, but is not limited to, payment of all
costs in connection with the remediation work. In addition, the purchaser
provided the Partnership with certain indemnification protection in relation to
clean-up costs and related expenses arising from the presence of these
hazardous substances. At the present time, the Managing General Partner is
unaware of any claims or other matters referred to above against the
Partnership. The purchaser has provided the California Regional Water Quality
Control Board (the "Water Board") with its corrective action plan (the "Plan")
for the clean up of the site. The Water Board's recommended modifications to
the Plan have been implemented. Currently, the purchaser is monitoring to
determine the extent of the contamination of the groundwater at the site. Upon
determination of the groundwater concentrations, the purchaser will submit a
revised plan to the Water Board and request its approval. The timing of the
completion of the remediation process is contingent upon, among other things,
the Water Board's issuance of this approval. Accordingly, there can be no
assurance as to the timing of the completion of the remediation process. The
Managing General Partner continues to monitor the documentation delivered by
the purchaser regarding the purchaser's activities to remedy the hazardous
substances at Lakewood.

                                                                               5

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

Reference is made to the Partnership's Annual Report for the year ended
December 31, 2000 for a discussion of the Partnership's business.

Statements contained in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations, which are not historical facts, may be
forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and
uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those
projected. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-
looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof.

The Partnership has substantially completed the disposition phase of its life
cycle. The Partnership has sold its remaining property investments and is
working toward resolution of post closing property sale matters.

OPERATIONS
Net income decreased by $5,900 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 when
compared to the three months ended March 31, 2000. The decrease was primarily
due to a decrease in interest earned on the Partnership's short-term
investments, which was due to a decrease in the rates earned on those
investments.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The increase in the Partnership's cash position of $40,800 during the three
months ended March 31, 2001 was due to net cash provided by operating
activities. Liquid assets, including cash and cash equivalents, as of March 31,
2001 were comprised of amounts reserved for the Lakewood environmental matter
(as hereafter discussed) and Partnership liquidation expenses.
Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $31,500 for the three
months ended March 31, 2001 when compared to the three months ended March 31,
2000. The increase was primarily the result of the timing of the payment of
certain Partnership expenses, partially offset by the decrease in net income,
as previously discussed.

The Partnership has no financial instruments for which there are significant
market risks.

As described in Note 3 of Notes to Financial Statements, the Partnership is
awaiting resolution of an environmental matter at Lakewood. The Managing
General Partner is continuing to monitor the documentation delivered by the
purchaser of Lakewood regarding the purchaser's activities to remedy the
hazardous substances at Lakewood. There can be no assurance as to the actual
timeframe for the remediation or that it will be completed without cost to the
Partnership. As a result of this, it will be necessary for the Partnership to
remain in existence. When the environmental matter at Lakewood is
satisfactorily remediated, Limited Partners will receive a final liquidating
distribution of the remaining cash held by the Partnership, less amounts
reserved for administrative expenses and any amounts deemed necessary to
resolve, or provide for, any post closing matters.
