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


(1)  Liquidity.

     The General Partners expect that the cash to be generated from operations
of all the Registrant's properties will be adequate to pay operating expenses,
make necessary capital improvements, make required principal reductions, and
provide distributions to the Partners.  On a long-term basis, the Registrant's
liquidity is sustained primarily from cash flow provided by operating
activities.  During the nine months ended September 30, 1995, net cash provided
by operating activities was approximately $1,477,673 as compared to cash
provided by operating activities of approximately $1,430,722 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1994.

     During the nine months ended September 30, 1995, the Registrant used net
cash in investing activities of $177,536 compared to $167,210 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1994.  The Registrant's investing activities
consisted of capital improvements made on its four properties.

     During the nine months ended September 30, 1995, the Registrant used net
cash in financing activities of $877,734 compared to $1,610,068 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1994.  The Registrant's financing activities
consisted of principal reduction on notes payable and distributions paid to the
Partners.  

     The General Partners are not aware of any trends, other than national
economic conditions, which have had or which may be reasonably expected to have
a material favorable or unfavorable impact on revenues or income from the
operations or sale of properties.  The General Partners believe that if the
inflation rate increases they will be able to pass the subsequent increase in
operating expenses onto the residents of the properties by way of higher rental
and Assisted Living rates.  The Registrant has long term debt of approximately
$981,000 ,as of September 30, 1995, which matures on September 20, 2000.  The
amount of this indebtedness is minor in relation to the Registrant's equity.

(2)  Capital Resources.

     Registrant contemplates spending approximately $200,000 for capital
expenditures during 1995 for physical improvements at its four facilities.  The
funds for these improvements should be available from operations.

     There are no known material trends, favorable or unfavorable, in the
Registrant's capital resources, and there is no expected change in the mix of
such resources.

(3)  Results of Operations.

     Three months ended September 30, 1995 compared with the three months ended
September 30, 1994.

     Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 1995, and the three months
ended September 30, 1994 includes rental income and Assisted Living income from
all four properties, interest earned on cash balances and other revenue.  Total
revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1995 were  $2,082,208, an
increase of approximately 7% over revenues of $1,953,498 for the three months
ended September 30, 1994.

     The largest component of revenue, rent, increased by approximately 5% from
the three months ended September 30, 1994 to the three months ended September
30, 1995.  The increase in rent was due to an increase in occupancy of
approximately 3% and an increase in rental rates of approximately 2%.

     Revenue from Assisted Living increased by approximately 26% from the three
months ended September 30, 1994 to the three months ended September 30, 1995.
The increase in Assisted Living was due to aggressive marketing of the Assisted
Living services and the resulting increase in the number of residents using the
program.

     Interest and other revenue increased by over 16% from the three months
ended September 30, 1994 to the three months ended September 30, 1995.  Interest
income results from interest earned on cash deposits.  Other revenue generally
includes processing fees and beauty shop revenue.

     Sources of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 1995 and
September 30, 1994 are summarized as follows:

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

     Total cost and expenses for the three months ended September 30,1 995 were
$1,702,234, an increase of approximately 2% over costs and expenses of
$1,676,388 for the three months ended September 30, 1994.

     The largest component of expenses, rental property operations, consist
primarily of property management costs, payroll related expenses, utilities,
food expenses and maintenance and supplies.  Rental property operations expenses
increased by 3% from the three months ended September 30, 1994 to the three
months ended September 30, 1995.  The increase in rental property operating
expenses is primarily due to increases in payroll expenses and increases in
occupancy which generate increases in expenses.

     Assisted Living expenses consist primarily of the related payroll expense.
Assisted living expenses increased by over 20% from the three months ended
September 30, 1994 to the three months ended September 30, 1995.  Assisted
Living expenses increased due to the increases in size of the related staff
providing Assisted Living services.  This increase corresponds to the increase
in Assisted Living revenue.
