              NHP RETIREMENT HOUSING PARTNERS I LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 MARCH 31, 2001

A.       ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NATURE OF BUSINESS

NHP Retirement Housing Partners I Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") is a
limited partnership organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on March
10, 1986. The Partnership was formed for the purpose of raising capital by
issuing both Pension Notes ("Pension Notes") to tax-exempt investors and selling
additional partnership interests in the form of Assignee Interests ("Interests")
to taxable individuals. Interests represent assignments of the limited
partnership interests of the Partnership issued to the Assignor Limited Partner,
NHP RHP-I Assignor Corporation. The proceeds from the sale of the Pension Notes
and Interests have been invested in residential rental properties for retirement
age occupants.

DISSOLUTION OF PARTNERSHIP

On December 31, 2001, the Pension Notes and deferred interest of approximately
$37,668,000 will mature and become due. Given the level of the Partnership's
cash reserves at December 31, 2000 and estimated value of Partnership assets,
the Partnership is not expected to have sufficient funds to fully repay the
maturing Pension Notes and deferred interest on December 31, 2001. Accordingly,
the Partnership does not expect to have any funds available for distribution to
the holders of Interests ("Assignee Holders").

If the Pension Notes are not fully paid at their maturity, a default will occur
under the Pension Notes and Trust Indenture under which the Pension Notes are
administered. In such event, the Trustee may choose to liquidate the
Partnership's assets in an effort to satisfy the Pension Notes. A concern arises
that such a sale may be a "fire" or "distressed" sale and, as a result, may not
yield the maximum value for the Partnership's assets. Further concern arises
from the apparent weakening in the sales market for senior living communities.
Because of these factors and the savings that may be obtained from earlier
payment on the Pension Notes, Capital Realty Group Senior Housing, Inc. ("the
General Partner") has deemed it prudent to dissolve the Partnership and sell its
remaining asset to obtain the best terms for a sale and accordingly, maximize
value realization of the Partnership's remaining asset.

Accordingly, on February 12, 2001, the General Partner notified the Note Holders
and Assignee Holders of its intent to dissolve the Partnership and commence a
Plan of Liquidation effective May 21, 2001. The dissolution is subject to the
rights of the Limited Partners to elect to continue the business of the
Partnership. Following an election to dissolve, the Partnership will take all
actions necessary to wind-up the Partnership's business including the sale of
all of its remaining assets in an orderly fashion and, to the extent of the
proceeds thereof, pay its creditors and claims.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying balance sheet as of December 31, 2000 has been derived from
audited financial statements of the Partnership for the year ended December 31,
2000 and the accompanying unaudited financial statements, as of March 31, 2001
and 2000, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures
normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with

                                       6
<PAGE>

generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant
to those rules and regulations. For further information, refer to the financial
statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2000 included in
the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on March 31, 2001.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements contain all
adjustments (all of which were normal recurring accruals) necessary to present
fairly the Partnership's financial position as of March 31, 2001 and 2000,
results of operations, changes in Partner's deficit and cash flows for three
month periods ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. The results of operations for the
three-month period ended March 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the
results for the year ending December 31, 2001.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement 133; ("FAS 133")
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" in June 1998. The
Statement is effective for all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 2000. Because of the Partnership's minimal use of derivatives,
the adoption of FAS 133 by the Partnership in the first quarter of fiscal 2001
did not have a material effect on the Partnership's earnings or financial
position.

B.       TRANSACTIONS WITH THE GENERAL PARTNER AND AFFILIATES OF THE GENERAL
PARTNER

Effective January 23, 1995, Capital Realty Group Senior Housing, Inc. (CRGSH)
became the sole general partner of the Partnership. On June 10, 1998, the sole
owner of the General Partner, Capital Realty Group Corporation, sold all of its
shares of CRGSH common stock to Retirement Associates, Inc. ("Associates") for
$855,000. The source of the funds is a Promissory Note for $855,000 with a
five-year term and bears a current interest rate of 8 percent per annum. The
interest will accrue on the Promissory Note and be payable at the maturity of
the Promissory Note. Associates is the maker of the Note and Capital Realty
Group Corporation is the payee. Mr. Robert Lankford is the President of
Associates and has brokered and continues to broker real estate as an
independent contractor with Capital Realty Group Corporation and its affiliates.

Personnel working at the Property sites and certain home office personnel who
perform services for the Partnership are employees of Capital Senior Living,
Inc. (CSL), an affiliate of CRGSH until June 30, 1998. The Partnership
reimburses CSL for the salaries, related benefits, and overhead reimbursements
of such personnel as reflected in the accompanying financial statements. Salary,
related benefits and overhead reimbursements reimbursed and expensed by the
Partnership to CSL for the first fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2001 and 2000,
were $275,319 and $273,518, respectively. Management fees, dietary fees and
other services reimbursed and expensed by the Partnership to CSL for the first
fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, were $160,444 and $154,163,
respectively.

Distributions of $27,258 were made to the General Partner during the three
months ended March 31, 2001.

C.       VALUATION OF RENTAL PROPERTY

Generally accepted accounting principles require that the Partnership evaluate
whether it is probable that the estimated undiscounted future cash flows of its
properties, taken individually, will be less than the respective net book value
of the properties. If such a shortfall exists and is material, then a write-down
is warranted. The Partnership performs such evaluations on an on-going basis.
During the three months ended March 31, 2001, based on the Partnership's
evaluation of its property, the Partnership did not believe that any write-down
was warranted.

D.       LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On or about October 23, 1998, an Assignee Interest holder filed a putative class
action complaint on behalf of certain holders of Assignee Interests in NHP in
the Delaware Court of Chancery against the Partnership, Capital Senior Living
Corporation, Capital Senior Living Properties 2 - NHPCT, Inc. and CRGSH
(collectively "the Defendants"). This Assignee Interest holder purchased 90
Assignee Interests in the Partnership in February 1993 for $180. The complaint
alleges, among other things, that the Defendants breached, or aided and abetted
a breach of, the express and implied terms of the Partnership Agreement in
connection with the sale of four properties by the Partnership to Capital Senior
Living Properties 2 - NHPCT, Inc. Capital Senior Living Properties 2 - NHPCT,
Inc. is an affiliate of Capital Senior Living, Inc., the current manager of The
Amberleigh. The complaint seeks, among other relief, rescission of the sale of
these properties and unspecified damages. The Partnership believes the complaint
is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself in this action. The
Partnership has filed a Motion to Dismiss in this case, which currently is
pending. The Partnership is unable to estimate liability related to this claim,
if any.

E.       PENSION NOTES

The Notes bear stated simple interest at a rate equal to 13 percent per annum.
Payment of up to 9 percent of stated interest was subject to deferral through
December 31, 1988 and payment of up to 6 percent of stated interest is subject
to deferral thereafter. Deferred interest does not bear interest. Interest not
deferred is payable quarterly. Using the effective interest method, interest on
principal and accrued interest of the Pension Notes has been accrued at the rate
of approximately 9 percent per annum compounded quarterly. The approximate 9
percent effective interest rate was calculated using estimates of the amounts of
interest that will be deferred and the time period in which such deferred
amounts will be paid. If interest had been provided based on 13 percent versus
the effective rate of approximately 9 percent, an additional liability of
approximately $155,515 would be recorded at March 31, 2001 and future interest
expense would be reduced by this amount. The Partnership's obligation to repay
the principal amount of the Notes, which mature on December 31, 2001, and stated
interest thereon, is secured by a lien on the Partnership's assets. The
liability of the Partnership under the Pension Notes is limited to the assets of
the Partnership. The Pension Notes are subject to redemption in whole or in part
upon not less than 30 or more than 60 days prior notice, at the election of the
Partnership. For the first quarter ended March 31, 2001, an additional
$1,000,000 was paid for deferred interest not scheduled to become due until
December 31, 2001.

ITEM 2.       MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The following schedule summarizes the occupancy levels at The Amberleigh in
which the Partnership has a 99.9 percent partnership interest.

                                       8
<PAGE>

On November 5, 1997, the Partnership purchased approximately 3.10 acres of land
adjacent to The Amberleigh for $500,000 plus closing costs for the potential
expansion of the Amberleigh, as well as to prevent another purchaser from buying
the tract and blocking the facility from view from the main intersection. Due to
licensure and financing requirements, the land currently will not be used for
development.

Rent collections for the three-month period increased to $1,317,070 in 2001 from
$1,239,120 in 2000. Increased rent collections were due to increased occupancy
at the Amberleigh. Salaries, management fees and other operating expenses paid
likewise decreased, from $1,010,440 in 2000 to $968,746 in 2001. Decreased
operating expenses paid primarily were due to decreased other operating expenses
paid at March 31, 2001.

Cash generated from rental operations prior to the payment of interest expense
was sufficient to pay all of the interest on the Pension Notes currently
payable, which was $355,661 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001.
However, an additional $1,000,000 was paid for deferred interest payable during
the first quarter ended March 31, 2001. Net cash used in operations after the
payment of interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2001 and
2000 was $956,246 and $64,036, respectively. Interest on the Pension Notes bears
stated simple interest at 13 percent rate per annum, and is paid on a 7 percent
rate per annum, however it is accrued under the effective interest method at a
rate of approximately 9 percent per annum compounded quarterly, which totaled
$856,239 and $811,145 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000,
respectively. The remaining 6 percent unpaid portion is due at maturity. Total
accrued and unpaid interest amounted to $16,281,005 and $16,780,427 at March 31,
2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively.

Capital expenditures decreased $14,273 from $41,472 in 2000 to $27,199 in 2001.

Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000 amounted to
$4,481,576 and $5,492,588, respectively.

DISSOLUTION OF PARTNERSHIP

On December 31, 2001, the Pension Notes and deferred interest of approximately
$37,668,000 will mature and become due. Given the level of the Partnership's
cash reserves at December 31, 2000 and estimated value of Partnership assets,
the Partnership is not expected to have sufficient funds to fully repay the
maturing Pension Notes and deferred interest on December 31, 2001. Accordingly,
the Partnership does not expect to have any funds available for distribution to
the Assignee Holders.

If the Pension Notes are not fully paid at their maturity, a default will occur
under the Pension Notes and Trust Indenture under which the Pension Notes are
administered. In such event, the Trustee may choose to liquidate the
Partnership's assets in an effort to satisfy the Pension Notes. A concern arises
that such a sale may be a "fire" or "distressed" sale and, as a result, may not
yield the maximum value for the Partnership's assets. Further concern arises
from the apparent weakening in the sales market for senior living communities.
Because of these factors and the savings that may be obtained from earlier
payment on the Pension Notes, the General Partner has deemed it prudent to
dissolve the Partnership and sell its remaining asset to obtain the best terms
for a sale and accordingly, maximize value realization of the Partnership's
remaining asset.

Accordingly, on February 12, 2001, the General Partner notified the Note Holders
and Assignee Holders of its intent to dissolve the Partnership and commence a
Plan of Liquidation effective May

                                       9
<PAGE>

21, 2001. The dissolution is subject to the rights of the Limited Partners to
elect to continue the business of the Partnership. Following an election to
dissolve, the Partnership will take all actions necessary to wind-up the
Partnership's business including the sale of all of its remaining assets in an
orderly fashion and, to the extent of the proceeds thereof, pay its creditors
and claims.

Management's plans are to continue to manage the Property prudently in order to
maximize the resale value of the Property during the dissolution of the
Partnership.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Partnership's net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2001 includes
rental operations from the Partnership's property. The net loss also includes
depreciation, amortization of Pension Notes issuance costs, and accrued Pension
Note interest expense, which are non-cash in nature.

The Partnership net loss decreased from $662,226 to $611,579 for the three-month
periods ending March 31, 2000 and 2001, respectively. Net loss per assignee
interest decreased from $15 to $14 for the three-month periods ending March 31,
2000 and 2001, respectively. The decrease in the Partnership's net loss was
principally due to increased occupancy and revenues at the Amberleigh, and
decreased operating expenses. Total revenues for the three-month periods
increased from $1,299,945 in 2000 to $1,345,513 in 2001. The increase in total
revenues was due to increased occupancy at the Amberleigh. Total operating costs
and expenses decreased from $1,015,750 in 2000 to $993,111 in 2001. The decrease
in operating expenses primarily was due to decreased taxes and insurance.
Pension Note interest expense increased from $811,145 to $856,239 for the
three-month periods ending March 31, 2000 and 2001, respectively. Other expenses
relating to Partnership administration decreased from $105,525 to $77,991 for
the three-month periods ending March 31, 2000 and 2001, respectively, due to
decreased professional fees.

ITEM 3.  QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

The Partnership invests its cash in money market accounts. As a result, the
Partnership believes any impact of market risk to the Partnership's investments
is immaterial.
