      Apartments") and the other Local Limited Partnership owned an apartment
      complex in Holland, Michigan (know as "Stonegate Apartments").

      During the first quarter 2006, the Local Limited Partnership that owned
      Stonegate Apartments was no longer able to make its debt service payments.
      Attempts to locate a buyer for the property by the local general partner
      were unsuccessful. As a result, the lender took possession of Stonegate
      Apartments in April 2006 and foreclosed on the property in June 2006.

      In January 2006 the Partnership sold its limited partnership interest in
      the College Green property for a purchase price of $1,200,000 to an
      affiliate of the general partners of the Local Limited Partnership.

      The Partnership accounts for its investment in each Local Limited
      Partnership by using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity
      method of accounting, the investment cost is subsequently adjusted by the
      Partnership's share of the Local Limited Partnership's results of
      operations and by distributions received. Equity in the loss of a Local
      Limited Partnership is not recognized to the extent that the investment
      balance would become negative since the Partnership is not obligated to
      advance funds to the Local Limited Partnership.

      The Partnership has evaluated its investment in each Local Limited
      Partnership under Interpretation No.46(R) "Consolidation of Variable
      Interest Entities" and has determined that they are variable interest
      entities; however, the Partnership is not the primary beneficiary. The
      Partnership has no further risk of loss in these variable interest
      entities as the Partnership has written down its investment to zero and as
      a limited partner is not required to fund deficits.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

      The matters discussed in this Form 10-QSB contain certain forward-looking
      statements and involve risks and uncertainties (including changing market
      conditions, competitive and regulatory matters, etc.) detailed in the
      disclosure contained in this Form 10-QSB and the other filings with the
      Securities and Exchange Commission made by the Partnership from time to
      time. The discussion of the Partnership's liquidity, capital resources and
      results of operations, including forward-looking statements pertaining to
      such matters, does not take into account the effects of any changes to the
      Partnership's operations. Accordingly, actual results could differ
      materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a
      result of a number of factors, including those identified herein.

      This Item should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
      other items contained elsewhere in the report.

      Liquidity and Capital Resources

      As of June 30, 2006, the Partnership retains an interest in two Local
      Limited Partnerships. One Local Limited Partnership owns an apartment
      complex located in Raleigh, North Carolina (known as "Lynndale
      Apartments") and the other Local Limited Partnership owned an apartment
      complex in Holland, Michigan (known as "Stonegate Apartments").

      During the first quarter 2006, the Local Limited Partnership that owns
      Stonegate Apartments was no longer able to make its debt service payments.
      Attempts to locate a buyer for the property by the local general partner
      were unsuccessful. As a result, the lender took possession of Stonegate
      Apartments in April 2006 and foreclosed on the property in June 2006.

      In January 2006 the Partnership sold its limited partnership interest in
      the College Green property for a purchase price of $1,200,000 to an
      affiliate of the general partners of the Local Limited Partnership.

      The level of liquidity based on cash and cash equivalents experienced a
      $147,000 increase for the six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to
      December 31, 2005, as a result of $1,200,000 in proceeds from the sale of
      the Partnership's interest in the College Green Local Limited Partnership
      (investing activities) which was substantially offset by $53,000 of net
      cash used in operating activities and $1,000,000 in distributions to
      partners (financing activities). At June 30, 2006, the Partnership had
      $407,000 in cash and cash equivalents, which have been invested primarily
      in repurchase agreements and a money market account.

      The Partnership's primary source of income is distributions from the Local
      Limited Partnerships. It is not expected that the Partnership will receive
      any further distributions from Stonegate Apartments as the lender
      foreclosed on the property in June 2006. Distributions from Lynndale
      Apartments will be based on the property's operating results and proceeds
      from capital transactions. There can be no assurance that the Partnership
      will receive any future distributions from Lynndale Apartments or, if
      received, the level or timing of such distributions.

                            FORM 10-QSB JUNE 30, 2006

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation (Continued)

      The Partnership requires cash to pay general and administrative expenses
      and to make capital contributions to the Local Limited Partnership which
      the managing general partner deems to be in the Partnership's best
      interest to preserve its ownership interest. To date, all cash
      requirements have been satisfied by interest income, cash distributed by
      the Local Limited Partnership to the Partnership or by loans.

      The Partnership does not intend to make advances to fund future operating
      deficits incurred by the Local Limited Partnership, but retains its
      prerogative to exercise business judgment to reverse this position if
      circumstances change. Moreover, the Partnership is not obligated to
      provide any additional funds to the

      Liquidity and Capital Resources (Continued)

      Local Limited Partnership to fund operating deficits. If the Local Limited
      Partnership sustains continuing operating deficits and has no other
      sources of funding, it is likely that it will eventually default on its
      mortgage obligations and risk a foreclosure on its property by the lender.
      If a foreclosure were to occur, the Local Limited Partnership would lose
      its investment in the property and would incur a tax liability due to the
      recapture of tax benefits taken in prior years. The Partnership, as an
      owner of the Local Limited Partnership, would share these consequences in
      proportion to its ownership interest in the Local Limited Partnership.

      Results of Operations

      The Partnership's net loss remained constant for the three month periods
      ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. The Partnership's net income was $1,148,000
      for the six months ended June 30, 2006, as compared to a net loss of
      $60,000 for the comparable period in 2005. The increase was due to an
      increase in total income due to the gain on sale of the Local Limited
      Partnership that owned the College Green property in North Carolina and to
      a lesser extent an increase in interest income partially offset by an
      increase in general and administrative expenses.

      Recently Issued Accounting Standards and Pronouncements

      In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, "Accounting Changes and Error
      Corrections - A Replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and SFAS No. 3". SFAS
      No. 154 changes the requirements for the accounting and reporting of a
      change in accounting principle by requiring retrospective application to
      prior period financial statements of the change in accounting principle,
      unless it is impracticable to do so. SFAS No. 154 also requires that a
      change in depreciation and amortization for long-lived, non financial
      assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate affected by a
      change in accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting
      changes and correction of errors made in fiscal years beginning after
      December 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS No. 154 did not have any effect on
      the Partnership's financial statements.

      In June 2005, the FASB ratified the EITF's consensus on Issue 04-5,
      "Determining Whether a General Partner, or the General Partners as a
      Group, Controls a Limited Partnership or Similar Entity When the Limited
      Partners Have Certain Rights." Issue 04-5 provides a framework for
      determining whether a general partner controls, and should consolidate, a
      limited partnership or a similar entity.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation (Continued)

      It became effective for all newly formed limited partnerships and for any
      pre-existing limited partnerships that modify their partnership agreements
      after June 29, 2005. General partners of all other limited partnerships
      will apply the consensus no later than the beginning of the first
      reporting period in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The
      adoption of the consensus in EITF 04-5 did not have any effect on the
      Partnership's financial statements.

      Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures of Market Risk

      The Partnership does not have any financial instruments that would expose
      it to market risk associated with the risk of loss arising from adverse
      changes in market rates and prices.

Item 3. Controls and Procedures

      The Partnership's management, with the participation of the Partnership's
      Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the
      effectiveness of the Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures (as
      such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act
      of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report.
      Based on such evaluation, the Partnership's Chief Executive Officer and
      Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period,
      the Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

      There have not been any changes in the Partnership's internal control over
      financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities
      Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) during the fiscal quarter to which this
      report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
      materially affect, the Partnership's internal control over financial
      reporting.
