             JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND-II LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
                      (A MASSACHUSETTS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

1.     ORGANIZATION OF PARTNERSHIP

         John Hancock Realty Income Fund-II Limited Partnership (the
         "Partnership") was formed under the Massachusetts Uniform Limited
         Partnership Act on June 30, 1987. As of March 31, 2000, the partners in
         the Partnership consisted of John Hancock Realty Equities, Inc. (the
         "General Partner"), a wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of John Hancock
         Mutual Life Insurance Company; John Hancock Realty Funding, Inc. (the
         "John Hancock Limited Partner"); John Hancock Income Fund-II Assignor,
         Inc. (the "Assignor Limited Partner"); and 4,039 Unitholders (the
         "Investors"). The Assignor Limited Partner holds 2,601,552 Assignee
         Units (the "Units"), representing economic and certain other rights
         attributable to Investor Limited Partnership Interests in the
         Partnership, for the benefit of the Investors. The John Hancock Limited
         Partner, the Assignor Limited Partner and the Investors are
         collectively referred to as the Limited Partners. The General Partner
         and the Limited Partners are collectively referred to as the Partners.
         The initial capital of the Partnership was $2,000, representing capital
         contributions of $1,000 by the General Partner and $1,000 from the John
         Hancock Limited Partner. The Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership
         of the Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement") authorized the
         issuance of up to 5,000,000 Assignee Units at $20 per Unit. During the
         offering period, which terminated on January 2, 1989, 2,601,552 Units
         were sold and the John Hancock Limited Partner made additional capital
         contributions of $4,161,483. There were no changes in the number of
         Units outstanding subsequent to the termination of the offering period.

         The Partnership is engaged solely in the business of (i) acquiring,
         improving, holding for investment and disposing of existing
         income-producing retail, industrial and office properties on an
         all-cash basis, free and clear of mortgage indebtedness, and (ii)
         making mortgage loans consisting of conventional first mortgage loans
         and participating mortgage loans secured by income-producing retail,
         industrial and office properties. Although the Partnership's properties
         were acquired and are held free and clear of mortgage indebtedness, the
         Partnership may incur mortgage indebtedness on its properties under
         certain circumstances as specified in the Partnership Agreement.

         The latest date on which the Partnership is due to terminate is
         December 31, 2017, unless it is sooner terminated in accordance with
         the terms of the Partnership Agreement. It is expected that, in the
         ordinary course of the Partnership's business, the investments of the
         Partnership will be disposed of, and the Partnership terminated, before
         December 31, 2017.

         As initially stated in its Prospectus, it was expected that the
         Partnership would be dissolved upon the sale of its last remaining
         property, which at that time was expected to be within seven to ten
         years following the date such property was acquired by the Partnership.
         As of March 31, 2000, the Partnership has two properties remaining in
         its portfolio. The Partnership listed one property for sale during
         March 2000 and intends to list the other property for sale later in
         2000. Upon the sale of the last remaining property, the operations of
         the Partnership will terminate, and the Partnership will be dissolved,
         in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, as soon as
         reasonably practicable.

2.     SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
         accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
         financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule
         10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
         information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
         principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
         management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
         considered necessary for a fair representation have been included.
         Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 are
         not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
         year ending December 31, 2000. For further information, refer to the
         financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
         Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
         31, 1999.

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
         accepted accounting principles 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 revenue
         and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ
         from those estimates.

             JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND-II LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
                      (A MASSACHUSETTS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)

                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
                                   (UNAUDITED)

2.     SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

         Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with maturities of three
         months or less when purchased. These investments are recorded at cost
         plus accrued interest, which approximates market value. Restricted cash
         represents funds restricted for tenant security deposits.

         Property held for sale is recorded at the lower of its carrying amount,
         at the time the property is listed for sale, or its fair value, less
         cost to sell. Carrying amount includes the property's cost, as
         described below, less accumulated depreciation thereon and less any
         property write-downs for impairment in value and plus any related
         unamortized deferred expenses.

         Investments in property are recorded at cost less any property
         write-downs for impairment in value. Cost includes the initial purchase
         price of the property plus acquisition and legal fees, other
         miscellaneous acquisition costs and the cost of significant
         improvements.

         Depreciation has been provided on a straight-line basis over the
         estimated useful lives of the various assets: thirty years for the
         buildings and five years for related improvements. Maintenance and
         repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Property held for sale
         is not depreciated.

         The Partnership measures impairment in value in accordance with
         Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 121, "Accounting for
         the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" ("Statement
         121"). Statement 121 requires impairment losses to be recorded on
         long-lived assets used in operations where indicators of impairment are
         present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by
         those assets are less than the assets' carrying amounts.

         Investment in joint venture is recorded using the equity method.

         Fees paid to the General Partner for the acquisition of joint venture
         and mortgage loan investments have been deferred and are being
         amortized over the life of the investments to which they apply. During
         1993, the Partnership reduced the period over which its remaining
         deferred acquisition fees are amortized from thirty years, the
         estimated useful life of the buildings owned by the Partnership, to
         eight and one-half years, the then estimated remaining life of the
         Partnership. Capitalized tenant improvements and lease commissions are
         being amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases
         to which they relate.

         The net income per Unit for the periods hereof was calculated by
         dividing the Investors' share of net income by the number of Units
         outstanding at the end of such period.

         No provision for income taxes has been made in the Financial Statements
         since such taxes are the responsibility of the individual Partners and
         Investors and not of the Partnership.

3.     THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT

         Distributable Cash from Operations (defined in the Partnership
         Agreement) is distributed 1% to the General Partner and the remaining
         99% in the following order of priority: first, to the Investors until
         they receive a 7% non-cumulative, non-compounded annual cash return on
         their Invested Capital (defined in the Partnership Agreement); second,
         to the General Partner to pay the Subordinated Allocation (defined in
         the Partnership Agreement) equal to 3 1/2% of Distributable Cash from
         Operations for managing the Partnership's activities; third, to the
         John Hancock Limited Partner until it receives a 7% non-cumulative,
         non-compounded annual cash return on its Invested Capital; fourth, to
         the Investors and the John Hancock Limited Partner in proportion to
         their respective Capital Contributions (defined in the Partnership
         Agreement), until they have received a 10% non-cumulative,
         non-compounded annual cash return on their Invested Capital; fifth, to
         the General Partner to pay the Incentive Allocation (defined in the
         Partnership Agreement) equal to 2 1/2% of Distributable Cash from
         Operations; and sixth, to the Investors and the John Hancock Limited
         Partner in proportion to their respective Capital Contributions. Any
         Distributable Cash from Operations which is available as a result of a
         reduction of working capital reserves funded by Capital Contributions
         of the Investors, will be distributed 100% to the Investors.

3.     THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT (CONTINUED)

         Cash from a Sale, Financing or Repayment (defined in the Partnership
         Agreement) of a Partnership Investment, is first used to pay all debts
         and liabilities of the Partnership then due and then to fund any
         reserves for contingent liabilities. Cash from Sales, Financings or
         Repayments is then distributed and paid in the following order of
         priority: first, to the Investors and the John Hancock Limited Partner,
         with the distribution made between the Investors and the John Hancock
         Limited Partner in proportion to their respective Capital
         Contributions, until the Investors and the John Hancock Limited Partner
         have received an amount equal to their Invested Capital; second, to the
         Investors until they have received, after giving effect to all previous
         distributions of Distributable Cash from Operations and any previous
         distributions of Cash from Sales, Financings or Repayments after the
         return of their Invested Capital, the Cumulative Return on Investment
         (defined in the Partnership Agreement); third, to the John Hancock
         Limited Partner until it has received, after giving effect to all
         previous distributions of Distributable Cash from Operations and any
         previous distributions of Cash from Sales, Financings or Repayments
         after the return of its Invested Capital, the Cumulative Return on
         Investment; fourth, to the General Partner to pay any Subordinated
         Disposition Fees then payable pursuant to Section 6.4(c) of the
         Partnership Agreement; and fifth, 99% to the Investors and the John
         Hancock Limited Partner and 1% to the General Partner, with the
         distribution made between the Investors and the John Hancock Limited
         Partner in proportion to their respective Capital Contributions.

         Cash from the sale or repayment of the last of the Partnership's
         properties or mortgage loans is distributed in the same manner as Cash
         from Sales, Financings or Repayments, except that before any other
         distribution is made to the Partners, each Partner shall first receive
         from such cash, an amount equal to the then positive balance, if any,
         in such Partner's Capital Account after crediting or charging to such
         account the profits or losses for tax purposes from such sale. To the
         extent, if any, that a Partner is entitled to receive a distribution of
         cash based upon a positive balance in its capital account prior to such
         distribution, such distribution will be credited against the amount of
         such cash the Partner would have been entitled to receive based upon
         the manner of distribution of Cash from Sales, Financings or
         Repayments, as specified in the previous paragraph.

         Profits for tax purposes from the normal operations of the Partnership
         for each fiscal year are allocated to the Partners in the same amounts
         as Distributable Cash from Operations for that year. If such profits
         are less than Distributable Cash from Operations for any year, then
         they are allocated in proportion to the amounts of Distributable Cash
         from Operations allocated for that year. If such profits are greater
         than Distributable Cash from Operations for any year, they are
         allocated 1% to the General Partner and 99% to the John Hancock Limited
         Partner and the Investors, with the allocation made between the John
         Hancock Limited Partner and the Investors in proportion to their
         respective Capital Contributions. Losses for tax purposes from the
         normal operations of the Partnership are allocated 1% to the General
         Partner and 99% to the John Hancock Limited Partner and the Investors,
         with the allocation made between the John Hancock Limited Partner and
         the Investors in proportion to their respective Capital Contributions.

         Profits and Losses from Sales, Financings or Repayments are generally
         allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners.

3.     THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT (CONTINUED)

         Neither the General Partner nor any Affiliate (as defined in the
         Partnership Agreement) of the General Partner shall be liable,
         responsible or accountable in damages to any of the Partners or the
         Partnership for any act or omission of the General Partner or such
         affiliate in good faith on behalf of the Partnership within the scope
         of the authority granted to the General Partner by the Partnership
         Agreement and in the best interest of the Partnership, except for acts
         or omissions constituting fraud, negligence, misconduct or breach of
         fiduciary duty. The General Partner and its Affiliates performing
         services on behalf of the Partnership shall be entitled to indemnity
         from the Partnership for any loss, damage, or claim by reason of any
         act performed or omitted to be performed by the General Partner or such
         Affiliates in good faith on behalf of the Partnership and in a manner
         within the scope of the authority granted to the General Partner by the
         Partnership Agreement and in the best interest of the Partnership,
         except that they shall not be entitled to be indemnified in respect of
         any loss, damage, or claim incurred by reason of fraud, negligence,
         misconduct, or breach of fiduciary duty. Any indemnity shall be
         provided out of and to the extent of Partnership assets only. The
         Partnership shall not advance any funds to the General Partner or its
         Affiliates for legal expenses and other costs incurred as a result of
         any legal action initiated against the General Partner or its
         Affiliates by a Limited Partner in the Partnership, except under
         certain specified circumstances.

4.     TRANSACTIONS WITH THE GENERAL PARTNER AND AFFILIATES

         Fees and expenses incurred and/or paid by the General Partner or its
         Affiliates on behalf of the Partnership during the three months ended
         March 31, 2000 and 1999 and to which the General Partner or its
         affiliates are entitled to reimbursement from the Partnership were
         $20,371 and $32,119, respectively. These expenses are included in
         expenses on the Statements of Operations.

         The Partnership provides indemnification to the General Partner and its
         Affiliates for any acts or omissions of the General Partner or an
         Affiliate in good faith on behalf of the Partnership, except for acts
         or omissions constituting fraud, negligence, misconduct or breach of
         fiduciary duty. The General Partner believes that this indemnification
         applies to the class action complaint described in Note 9. Accordingly,
         included in the Statements of Operations for the three months ended
         March 31, 2000 and 1999 are $0 and $12,191, respectively, representing
         the Partnership's share of costs incurred by the General Partner and
         its Affiliates relating to the class action complaint. Through March
         31, 2000, the Partnership has accrued a total of $210,098 as its share
         of the costs incurred by the General Partner and its Affiliates
         resulting from this matter.

         The General Partner also believes that this indemnification applies to
         the complaint filed in the Superior Court of the State of California
         for the County of Los Angeles described in Note 10. Accordingly, the
         Partnership incurred and paid $35,138 representing the Partnership's
         share of costs incurred by the General Partner and its Affiliates
         relating to this complaint.

         Accounts payable to affiliates represents amounts due to the General
         Partner or its Affiliates for various services provided to the
         Partnership, including amounts to indemnify the General Partner or its
         Affiliates for claims incurred by them in connection with their actions
         with respect to the Partnership. All amounts accrued by the Partnership
         to indemnify the General Partner or its Affiliates for legal fees
         incurred by them, shall not be paid unless or until all conditions set
         forth in the Partnership Agreement for such payment have been
         fulfilled.

         The General Partner serves in a similar capacity for two other
         affiliated real estate limited partnerships.

5.     INVESTMENT IN PROPERTY

         Investment in property at cost consists of managed, fully-operating,
         commercial real estate as follows:

                                                 March 31,         December 31,
                                                   2000               1999
                                                 ---------         ------------

         Park Square Shopping Center            $12,886,229         $12,886,229
                                                ===========         ===========


         The real estate market is cyclical in nature and is materially affected
         by general economic trends and economic conditions in the market where
         a property is located. As a result, determination of real estate values
         involves subjective judgments. These judgments are based on current
         market conditions and assumptions related to future market conditions.
         These assumptions involve, among other things, the availability of
         capital, occupancy rates, rental rates, interest rates and inflation
         rates. Amounts ultimately realized from each property may vary
         significantly from the values presented and the differences could be
         material. Actual market values of real estate can be determined only by
         negotiation between the parties in a sales transaction.

         The Partnership leases its property to non-affiliated tenants primarily
         under long-term operating leases.


6.     INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURE

         On December 28, 1988, the Partnership acquired a 99.5% interest in JH
         Quince Orchard Partners (the "Affiliated Joint Venture"), a joint
         venture between the Partnership and John Hancock Realty Income Fund-III
         Limited Partnership ("Income Fund-III"). The Partnership had an initial
         99.5% interest and Income Fund-III had an initial 0.5% interest in the
         Affiliated Joint Venture. Pursuant to the partnership agreement of the
         Affiliated Joint Venture, Income Fund-III had the option, exercisable
         prior to December 31, 1990, to increase its investment and interest in
         the Affiliated Joint Venture to 50%. During the second quarter of 1989,
         Income Fund-III exercised its option and the Partnership sold a 49.5%
         interest in the Affiliated Joint Venture to Income Fund-III. The
         Partnership has held a 50% interest in the Affiliated Joint Venture
         since the second quarter of 1989.

         On December 28, 1988, the Affiliated Joint Venture contributed 98% of
         the invested capital of, and acquired a 75% interest in, QOCC-1
         Associates, an existing partnership which owns and operates the Quince
         Orchard Corporate Center, a three-story office building and related
         land and improvements located in Gaithersburg, Maryland. The
         partnership agreement of QOCC-1 Associates provides that the Affiliated
         Joint Venture shall contribute 95% of any required additional capital
         contributions. Of the cumulative total invested capital in QOCC-1
         Associates at March 31, 2000, 97.55% has been contributed by the
         Affiliated Joint Venture. The Affiliated Joint Venture continues to
         hold a 75% interest in QOCC-1 Associates.

         Net cash flow from QOCC-1 Associates is distributed in the following
         order of priority: first, to the payment of all debts and liabilities
         of QOCC-1 Associates and to fund reserves deemed reasonably necessary;
         second, to the partners in proportion to their respective invested
         capital until each has received a 9% return on invested capital; third,
         the balance, if any, to the partners in proportion to their interests.
         Prior to 1996, QOCC-1 Associates had not provided the partners with a
         return in excess of 9% on their invested capital. During 1999, 1998,
         1997 and 1996, the partners received returns on invested capital of
         approximately 12%.

         Income and gains of QOCC-1 Associates, other than the gains allocated
         arising from a sale other similar event with respect to the Quince
         Orchard Corporate Center, are allocated in the following order of
         priority: i) to the partners who are entitled to receive a distribution
         of net cash flow, pro rata in the same order and amounts as such
         distributions are made and ii) the balance, if any, to the partners,
         pro rata in accordance with their interests.

9.     CONTINGENCIES

         In February 1996, a putative class action complaint was filed in the
         Superior Court in Essex County, New Jersey by a single investor in the
         Partnership. The complaint named as defendants the Partnership, the
         General Partner, certain other Affiliates of the General Partner, two
         limited partnerships affiliated with the Partnership, and certain
         unnamed officers, directors, employees and agents of the named
         defendants. The plaintiff sought unspecified damages stemming from
         alleged misrepresentations and omissions in the marketing and offering
         materials associated with the Partnership and two limited partnerships
         affiliated with the Partnership. On March 18, 1997, the court certified
         a class of investors who were original purchasers in the Partnership.

         A settlement agreement was approved by the Court on December 22, 1999.
         Under the terms of the settlement, the defendants have guaranteed
         certain minimum returns to class members on their investments and paid
         fees and expenses to class counsel in an amount determined by the court
         to be $1.5 million. These terms of the settlement will have no
         financial impact on the Partnership.

         The Partnership provides indemnification to the General Partner and its
         Affiliates for acts or omissions of the General Partner in good faith
         on behalf of the Partnership, except for acts or omissions constituting
         fraud, negligence, misconduct or breach of fiduciary duty. The General
         Partner believes that this indemnification applies to the class action
         complaint described above.

         The Partnership has incurred approximately $528,668 in legal expenses
         in connection with the class action lawsuit (see Part II, Item 1 of
         this Report). Of this amount, approximately $318,570 relates to the
         Partnership's own defense and approximately $210,098 relates to the
         indemnification of the General Partner and its Affiliates for their
         defense. These expenses are funded from the operations of the
         Partnership.

         In September 1997, a complaint for damages was filed in the Superior
         Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles by an
         investor in the Partnership. The complaint named the General Partner as
         a defendant.

         The plaintiff sought unspecified damages which allegedly arose from the
         General Partner's refusal to provide, without reasonable precautions on
         plaintiff's use of, a list of investors in the Partnership and in John
         Hancock Realty Income Fund Limited Partnership ("RIF"), a limited
         partnership affiliated with the Partnership. Plaintiff alleges that the
         General Partner's refusal unconditionally to provide a list was a
         breach of contract and a breach of the General Partner's fiduciary
         duty.

         A settlement agreement was reached on February 18, 2000 terminating all
         litigation between the parties. The settlement will not have a material
         adverse impact on the Partnership's financial position.

         The Partnership has incurred approximately $105,000 in legal expenses
         in connection with the above described lawsuit (see Part II, Item 1 of
         this Report). Of this amount, approximately $70,000 relates to the
         Partnership's own defense and approximately $35,000 relates to the
         indemnification of the General Partner and its Affiliates for their
         defense. These expenses were funded from the operations of the
         Partnership.

         OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

During the offering period, from October 2, 1987 to January 2, 1989, the
Partnership sold 2,601,552 Units representing gross proceeds (exclusive of the
John Hancock Limited Partners' contribution, which was used to pay sales
commissions) of $52,031,040. The proceeds of the offering were used to acquire
investments, fund reserves, and pay acquisition fees and organizational and
offering expenses. These investments are described more fully in Notes 5, 6 and
7 to the Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Report.

IMPACT OF YEAR 2000

The Partnership participated in the Year 2000 remediation project of its parent,
John Hancock Life Insurance Company (John Hancock). By late 1999, John Hancock
and the Partnership completed their Year 2000 readiness plan to address issues
that could result from computer programs written using two digits to define the
applicable year rather than four to define the applicable year and century. As a
result, John Hancock and the Partnership were prepared for the transition to the
Year 2000 and did not experience any significant Year 2000 problems with respect
to mission critical information technology ("IT") or non-IT systems,
applications or infrastructure. During the date rollover to the year 2000, John
Hancock and the Partnership implemented and monitored their millennium rollover
plan and conducted business as usual on Monday, January 3, 2000.

Since January 3, 2000, the information systems, including mission critical
systems, which in the event of a Year 2000 failure would have the greatest
impact on operations, have functioned properly. In addition, neither John
Hancock nor the Partnership experienced any significant Year 2000 issues related
to interactions with material business partners. No disruptions have occurred
which impact John Hancock or the Partnership's ability to process claims, update
customer accounts, process financial transactions, report accurate data to
management and no business interruptions due to Year 2000 issues have been
experienced. While John Hancock and the Partnership continue to monitor their
systems, and those of material business partners, closely to ensure that no
unexpected Year 2000 issues develop, as of the date of this report neither John
Hancock nor the Partnership have reason to expect any such issues.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

In addition to historical information, certain statements contained herein
contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended. Those statements appear in a number of places in this
Report and include statements regarding the intent, belief or expectations of
the General Partner with respect to, among other things, the prospective sale of
Partnership properties, repayment of mortgage loans, actions that would be taken
in the event of lack of liquidity, unanticipated leasing costs, repair and
maintenance expenses, distributions to the General Partner and to Investors, the
possible effects of tenants vacating space at Partnership properties, the
absorption of existing retail space in certain geographical areas, and the
impact of inflation.

Forward-looking statements involve numerous known and unknown risks and
uncertainties, and they are not guarantees of future performance. The following
factors, among others, could cause actual results or performance of the
Partnership and future events to differ materially from those expressed or
implied in the forward-looking statements: general economic and business
conditions; any and all general risks of real estate ownership, including
without limitation adverse changes in general economic conditions and adverse
local conditions, the fluctuation of rental income from properties, changes in
property taxes, utility costs or maintenance costs and insurance, fluctuations
of real estate values, competition for tenants, uncertainties about whether real
estate sales under contract will close; the ability of the Partnership to sell
its properties; and other factors detailed from time to time in the filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements,
which reflect the General Partner's analysis only as of the date hereof. The
Partnership assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements. See also

         OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At March 31, 2000 the Partnership had $2,755,805 in cash and cash equivalents
and $15,498 in restricted cash.

The Partnership has a working capital reserve with a current balance of
approximately $2,100,000, which represents approximately 4% of the Investors'
Invested Capital (as defined in the Partnership Agreement). The General Partner
anticipates that such amount should be sufficient to satisfy the Partnership's
general liquidity requirements. The Partnership's liquidity would, however, be
materially adversely affected if there were a significant reduction in revenues
or significant unanticipated operating costs (including but not limited to
litigation expenses), unanticipated leasing costs or unanticipated capital
expenditures. If any or all of these events were to occur, to the extent that
the working capital reserve would be insufficient to satisfy the cash
requirements of the Partnership, it is anticipated that additional funds would
be obtained through a reduction of cash distributions to Investors, bank loans,
short-term loans from the General Partner or its Affiliates, or the sale or
financing of Partnership investments.

The Partnership incurred $12,484 of leasing costs at the Park Square Shopping
Center during the three months ended March 31, 2000. The General Partner
anticipates that the Partnership will incur approximately $74,000 of leasing
costs at the Park Square Shopping Center during the remainder of 2000. The
current balance in the working capital reserve should be sufficient to pay such
costs.

The General Partner anticipates that the Partnership will incur approximately
$11,000 of non-recurring repair and maintenance expenses at the Park Square
Shopping Center during the remainder of 2000. These expenses will be funded from
the operations of the Partnership's properties and are not expected to have a
significant impact on the Partnership's liquidity.

The Partnership has incurred a total of approximately $528,668 in legal expenses
in connection with the class action lawsuit (see Part II, Item 1 of this
Report). Of this amount, approximately $318,570 relates to the Partnership's own
defense and approximately $210,098 relates to the indemnification of the General
Partner and its Affiliates for their defense.

In addition, the Partnership incurred approximately $105,000 in legal expenses
in connection with the lawsuit filed in the Superior Court of the State of
California for the County of Los Angeles by an investor in the Partnership (see
Part II, Item 1 of this Report). Of this amount, approximately $70,000 relates
to the Partnership's own defense and approximately $35,000 relates to the
indemnification of the General Partner and its Affiliates for their defense.
These expenses are funded from the operations of the Partnership.

Cash in the aggregate amount of $553,232 generated from the Partnership's
operations, was distributed to the General Partner and the Investors during the
first quarter of 2000. The amount distributed to the Investors from
Distributable Cash from Operations during the three months ended March 31, 2000
represented an annualized return on Investors' Invested Capital of approximately
6%. The General Partner anticipates that the Partnership will be able to make
comparable cash distributions from Distributable Cash from Operations during the
remaining three quarters of 2000. Distributions of Distributable Cash from
Sales, Financings or Repayments in 2000 will be dependent upon the occurrence of
sales of Partnership real properties. There can be no assurances that any
properties will be sold or how much cash from such sales will be distributable
to the Limited Partners, if any.

The Brooklyn Park, Minnesota real estate market, where the Park Square Shopping
Center is located, continues to experience increasing demand for tenants as the
development of more retail space continues. The General Partner expects market
conditions in Brooklyn Park to remain competitive during the remainder 2000 and,
therefore, no increase in market rental rates is anticipated.

The Quince Orchard Corporate Center is leased to Boehringer Mannheim
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. under a ten-year lease which expires in February 2004. The
tenant has two options under the lease agreement, one, to terminate the lease at
the end of its seventy-sixth month of the lease, or June 2000, and, two, to
extend the term of the lease for an additional five- year period. During the
first quarter of 1998, Hoffman-LaRoche, Inc. received approval from the Federal
Trade Commission to acquire Boehringer Mannheim Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Subsequently, Hoffman-LaRoche vacated and subleased the space. Hoffman-LaRoche
has informed the General Partner that it intends to exercise its right to
terminate the lease in June 2000.

Real estate market conditions in the Washington D.C. area for office space
similar to the Quince Orchard Corporate Center continue to improve. The supply
of such office space has been unable to keep pace with the demand, resulting in
a slight increase in market rents. Further, this condition has given rise to new
real estate development in the area. The General Partner does not anticipate
that this new development will negatively impact the market and therefore
expects market conditions to remain favorable through 2000.

The General Partner evaluated the carrying value of each of the Partnership's
properties and its joint venture investment as of December 31, 1999 by comparing
each such carrying value to the related property's future undiscounted cash
flows and the then most recent internal appraisal in order to determine whether
an impairment in values existed. Based upon such evaluations, the General
Partner determined that no impairment in values existed and, therefore, no
write-downs were recorded.

The General Partner will continue to conduct periodic property and investment
valuations, using internal or independent appraisals, in order to assist in its
evaluation of whether an impairment in value exists on any of the Partnership's
investments.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net income for the period ended March 31, 2000 was $329,786, as compared to net
income of $434,626 for the same period in 1999, representing a decrease of
$104,840, or 24%. This decrease is primarily due to a decrease in rental income
resulting from the sale of Miami International Distribution Center during 1999.

Average occupancy for the Partnership's equity real estate investments was as
follows:

</TABLE>

Rental income for the period ended March 31, 2000 decreased by $326,887, or 56%,
as compared to the same period during 1999 primarily due to the sale of the
Miami International Distribution Center. Rental income at the Partnership's
other properties was consistent between periods.

General and administrative expenses for the period ended March 31, 2000
decreased by $60,672, or 69%, as compared to the same period in 1999. This
decrease was primarily due to lower legal fees incurred by the Partnership in
connection with the class action complaint (see Part II, Item 1 of this Report)
and to a decrease in the time required by the General Partner in managing the
activities of the Partnership resulting from the sale of the Miami International
Distribution Center.

Property operating expenses for the period ended March 31, 2000 decreased by
$86,955, or 69%, as compared to the same period during 1999 primarily due to the
sale of the Miami International Distribution Center. Property operating expenses
at the Partnership's other properties were consistent between periods.

Depreciation expense for the period ended March 31, 2000 decreased by $31,180,
or 26%, as compared to the same period during 1999 primarily due to the sale of
the Miami International Distribution Center.

Amortization of deferred expenses for the period ended March 31, 2000 decreased
by $20,233, or 35%, as compared to the same period during 1999 primarily due to
the sale of the Miami International Distribution Center.

The General Partner believes that inflation has had no significant impact on the
Partnership's operations during the three months ended March 31, 2000, and the
General Partner anticipates that inflation will not have a significant impact
during the remainder of 2000.

       (a)    Net cash provided by operating activities, net change in operating

              calculated in the Statements of Cash Flows included in Item 1 of
              this Report.

       (b)    As defined in the Partnership Agreement. Distributable Cash from
              Operations should not be considered as an alternative to net
              income (i.e., not an indicator of performance) or to reflect cash
              flows or availability of discretionary funds.

During the second quarter of 2000, the Partnership will make a distribution of
Distributable Cash from Operations to the General Partner and Investors in the
amount of $473,009. This amount represents a 6% annualized return on the
remaining Investors' Invested Capital (as defined in the Partnership Agreement).
This amount is allocated 1% to the General Partner and a 99% to the Investors,
in accordance with the Partnership Agreement:

The source of future cash distributions from operations is dependent upon cash
generated by the Partnership's properties and the use of working capital
reserves. The General Partner currently anticipates that the Partnership's
Distributable Cash from Operations during each of the remaining three quarters
of 2000 may be impacted by the possible sale of both of the remaining properties
in the Partnership.

                           PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

           In February 1996, a putative class action complaint was filed in the
           Superior Court in Essex County, New Jersey by a single investor in
           the Partnership. The complaint named as defendants the Partnership,
           the General Partner, certain other Affiliates of the General Partner,
           and certain unnamed officers, directors, employees and agents of the
           named defendants.

           The plaintiff sought unspecified damages stemming from alleged
           misrepresentations and omissions in the marketing and offering
           materials associated with the Partnership and two limited
           partnerships affiliated with the Partnership. The complaint alleged,
           among other things, that the marketing materials for the Partnership
           and the affiliated limited partnerships did not contain adequate risk
           disclosures.

           On March 18, 1997, the court certified a class of investors who were
           original purchasers in the Partnership.

           A settlement agreement was approved by the Court on December 22,
           1999. Under the terms of the settlement, the defendants have
           guaranteed certain minimum returns to class members on their
           investments and paid fees and expenses to class counsel in an amount
           determined by the court to be $1.5 million. These terms of the
           settlement will have no financial impact on the Partnership.

           In September 1997, a complaint for damages was filed in the Superior
           Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles by an
           investor in the Partnership. The complaint named the General Partner
           as a defendant.

           The plaintiff sought unspecified damages which allegedly arose from
           the General Partner's refusal to provide, without reasonable
           precautions on plaintiff's use of, a list of investors in the
           Partnership and in John Hancock Realty Income Fund Limited
           Partnership ("RIF"), a limited partnership affiliated with the
           Partnership. Plaintiff alleges that the General Partner's refusal
           unconditionally to provide a list was a breach of contract and a
           breach of the General Partner's fiduciary duty.

           A settlement agreement was reached on February 18, 2000 terminating
           all litigation between the parties. The settlement will not have a
           material adverse impact on the Partnership's financial position.

           There are no other material pending legal proceedings, other than
           ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business of the
           Partnership, to which the Partnership is a party or to which any of
           its properties is subject.

           Partnership during the first quarter of 2000.
