(1)  The  condensed  statements included herein have been  prepared
     by  the Partnership, without audit, pursuant to the rules  and
     regulations  of  the Securities and Exchange  Commission,  and
     reflect   all  adjustments  which  are,  in  the  opinion   of
     management,  necessary to a fair statement of the  results  of
     operations for the interim period, on a basis consistent  with
     the  annual audited statements.  The adjustments made to these
     condensed   statements  consist  only  of   normal   recurring
     adjustments.   Certain information, accounting  policies,  and
     footnote    disclosures   normally   included   in   financial
     statements  prepared  in  accordance with  generally  accepted
     accounting principles have been condensed or omitted  pursuant
     to  such  rules  and  regulations,  although  the  Partnership
     believes  that  the  disclosures  are  adequate  to  make  the
     information  presented not misleading.  It is  suggested  that
     these  condensed financial statements be read  in  conjunction
     with  the  financial statements and the summary of significant
     accounting  policies  and  notes  thereto  included   in   the
     Partnership's latest annual report on Form 10-KSB.

     offering  terminated when the maximum subscription limit  of
     24,000  Limited  Partnership Units was reached.   Under  the
     terms  of  the  Limited Partnership Agreement,  the  Limited
     Partners   and   General  Partners  contributed   funds   of
     $24,000,000 and $1,000, respectively.

     During operations, any Net Cash Flow, as defined, which  the
     General Partners determine to distribute will be distributed
     90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the General Partners;
     provided,  however, that such distributions to  the  General
     Partners will be subordinated to the Limited Partners  first
     receiving an annual, noncumulative distribution of Net  Cash
     Flow equal to 10% of their Adjusted Capital Contribution, as
     defined,  and, provided further, that in no event  will  the
     General Partners receive less than 1% of such Net Cash  Flow
     per  annum.  Distributions to Limited Partners will be  made
     pro rata by Units.

(2)  Organization - (Continued)

     Any  Net  Proceeds  of Sale, as defined, from  the  sale  or
     financing of properties which the General Partners determine
     to distribute will, after provisions for debts and reserves,
     be  paid  in  the following manner: (i) first,  99%  to  the
     Limited  Partners and 1% to the General Partners  until  the
     Limited  Partners  receive an amount  equal  to:  (a)  their
     Adjusted  Capital Contribution plus (b) an amount  equal  to
     10%  of  their  Adjusted  Capital  Contribution  per  annum,
     cumulative  but not compounded, to the extent not previously
     distributed from Net Cash Flow;  (ii) any remaining  balance
     will  be distributed 90% to the Limited Partners and 10%  to
     the General Partners.  Distributions to the Limited Partners
     will be made pro rata by Units.

     For  tax  purposes,  profits  from  operations,  other  than
     profits  attributable  to  the  sale,  exchange,  financing,
     refinancing  or  other  disposition  of  property,  will  be
     allocated  first  in the same ratio in  which,  and  to  the
     extent,  Net  Cash Flow is distributed to the  Partners  for
     such year.  Any additional profits will be allocated in  the
     same  ratio  as  the  last  dollar  of  Net  Cash  Flow   is
     distributed.   Net losses from operations will be  allocated
     99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners.

     For  tax purposes, profits arising from the sale, financing,
     or  other  disposition  of property  will  be  allocated  in
     accordance  with the Partnership Agreement as  follows:  (i)
     first,  to  those  partners with deficit balances  in  their
     capital  accounts  in an amount equal to  the  sum  of  such
     deficit  balances; (ii) second, 99% to the Limited  Partners
     and  1%  to the General Partners until the aggregate balance
     in  the Limited Partners' capital accounts equals the sum of
     the Limited Partners' Adjusted Capital Contributions plus an
     amount  equal to 10% of their Adjusted Capital Contributions
     per  annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not
     previously  allocated;  (iii)  third,  the  balance  of  any
     remaining  gain  will then be allocated 90% to  the  Limited
     Partners  and 10% to the General Partners.  Losses  will  be
     allocated 98% to the Limited Partners and 2% to the  General
     Partners.

     The  General Partners are not required to currently  fund  a
     deficit   capital   balance.   Upon   liquidation   of   the
     Partnership or withdrawal by a General Partner, the  General
     Partners will contribute to the Partnership an amount  equal
     to  the  lesser  of  the deficit balances in  their  capital
     accounts  or  1%  of  total Limited  Partners'  and  General
     Partners' capital contributions.

(3)  Reclassification -

     Certain items in the prior year's financial statements  have
     been  reclassified  to conform to 2006 presentation.   These
     reclassifications  had no effect on Partners'  capital,  net
     income or cash flows.

(4)  Investments in Real Estate -

     In February 2005, Winn-Dixie Montgomery, Inc., the tenant of
     the Winn-Dixie store in Panama City, Florida, and its parent
     company,  Winn-Dixie, Inc., filed for Chapter 11  bankruptcy
     reorganization.   Rents  are  current  and  the  Partnership
     expects to continue to receive all scheduled rents in future
     months  unless the Lease is rejected by Winn-Dixie.  If  the
     Lease  is  affirmed, Winn-Dixie must comply with  all  Lease
     terms.   If  the  Lease  is rejected,  Winn-Dixie  would  be
     required  to  return  possession  of  the  property  to  the
     Partnership  and  the Partnership would be  responsible  for
     real   estate   taxes  and  other  costs   associated   with
     maintaining the property.  The Partnership has evaluated the
     lease  and  property  value and decided  that  there  is  no
     impairment loss at this time.  At March 31, 2006,  the  book
     value of this property was $868,542.

     On  January  14,  2005,  the  Partnership  purchased  a  40%
     interest  in a Jared Jewelry store in Auburn Hills, Michigan
     for $1,466,048.  The property is leased to Sterling Jewelers
     Inc.  under a Lease Agreement with a remaining primary  term
     of  15  years  and annual rental payments of $102,520.   The
     remaining  interest  in the property was  purchased  by  AEI
     Income   &  Growth  Fund  25  LLC,  an  affiliate   of   the
     Partnership.

     On  March 18, 2005, the Partnership purchased a 20% interest
     in  a CarMax auto superstore in Lithia Springs, Georgia  for
     $1,885,231.    The  property  is  leased  to   CarMax   Auto
     Superstores, Inc. under a Lease Agreement with  a  remaining
     primary  term  of 13.4 years and annual rental  payments  of
     $136,080.   The  remaining interests in  the  property  were
     purchased by AEI Income & Growth Fund 24 LLC, AEI  Income  &
     Growth Fund 25 LLC and AEI Private Net Lease Millennium Fund
     Limited Partnership, affiliates of the Partnership.

(5)  Payable to AEI Fund Management, Inc. -

     AEI  Fund  Management, Inc. performs the administrative  and
     operating functions for the Partnership.  The payable to AEI
     Fund   Management  represents  the  balance  due  for  those
     services.    This  balance  is  non-interest   bearing   and
     unsecured  and  is  to  be  paid in  the  normal  course  of
     business.

(6)  Discontinued Operations -

     Subsequent to March 31, 2006, the Partnership sold  14.8234%
     of  the  Eckerd  drug  store in Utica, New  York,  in  three
     separate  transactions,  to unrelated  third  parties.   The
     Partnership   received   total   net   sale   proceeds    of
     approximately  $827,000, which resulted in  a  net  gain  of
     approximately  $161,700.  The cost and  related  accumulated
     depreciation of the interests sold was $684,881 and $19,598,
     respectively.   The Partnership is attempting  to  sell  its
     remaining  25.1766% interest in the property.  At March  31,
     2006  and December 31, 2005, the property was classified  as
     Real Estate Held for Sale with a book value of $1,795,224.

(6)  Discontinued Operations - (Continued)

     During  the  first  three  months  of  2006  and  2005,  the
     Partnership distributed $19,606 and $63,841 of net  proceeds
     from  sales  completed in 2004 to the  Limited  and  General
     Partners  as  part  of their quarterly distributions,  which
     represented  a  return of capital of  $0.85  and  $2.77  per
     Limited  Partnership  Unit, respectively.   The  Partnership
     anticipates the remaining net sale proceeds will  either  be
     reinvested  in  additional property or  distributed  to  the
     Partners in the future.

     The financial results for these properties are reflected  as
     Discontinued   Operations  in  the  accompanying   financial
     statements.   The following are the results of  discontinued
     operations for the three months ended March 31:

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

        The Management's Discussion and Analysis contains various
"forward  looking  statements"  within  the  meaning  of  federal
securities  laws  which  represent management's  expectations  or
beliefs  concerning future events, including statements regarding
anticipated  application of cash, expected  returns  from  rental
income,  growth  in revenue, taxation levels, the sufficiency  of
cash to meet operating expenses, rates of distribution, and other
matters.  These, and other forward looking statements made by the
Partnership,  must be evaluated in the context  of  a  number  of
factors that may affect the Partnership's financial condition and
results of operations, including the following:

    Market  and  economic conditions which affect the  value
    of  the  properties the Partnership owns and  the  cash
    from rental income such properties generate;

    the  federal  income tax consequences of rental  income,
    deductions,  gain  on  sales and other  items  and  the
    affects of these consequences for the Partners;

    resolution  by  the General Partners of  conflicts  with
    which they may be confronted;

    the   success  of  the  General  Partners  of   locating
    properties with favorable risk return characteristics;


ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS.  (Continued)

    the effect of tenant defaults; and

    the  condition of the industries in which the  tenants  of
    properties owned by the Partnership operate.


The Application of Critical Accounting Policies

        The preparation of the Partnership's financial statements
requires  management to make estimates and assumptions  that  may
affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues  and
expenses,  and  related  disclosure  of  contingent  assets   and
liabilities. Management evaluates these estimates on  an  ongoing
basis,  including  those related to the carrying  value  of  real
estate  and  the  allocation  by AEI  Fund  Management,  Inc.  of
expenses  to  the  Partnership as opposed  to  other  funds  they
manage.

        The Partnership purchases properties and records them  in
the  financial  statements  at the lower  of  cost  or  estimated
realizable   value.   The  Partnership  initially   records   the
properties  at cost (including capitalized acquisition expenses).
The Partnership is required to periodically evaluate the carrying
value  of properties to determine whether their realizable  value
has  declined.   For  properties the Partnership  will  hold  and
operate, management determines whether impairment has occurred by
comparing the property's probability-weighted cash flows  to  its
current carrying value.  For properties held for sale, management
determines  whether  impairment has  occurred  by  comparing  the
property's estimated fair value less cost to sell to its  current
carrying  value.   If  the carrying value  is  greater  than  the
realizable  value, an impairment loss is recorded to  reduce  the
carrying value of the property to its realizable value.  A change
in  these assumptions or analysis could cause material changes in
the carrying value of the properties.

        AEI  Fund Management, Inc. allocates expenses to each  of
the  funds  they manage primarily on the basis of the  number  of
hours  devoted  by their employees to each fund's affairs.   They
also  allocate  expenses at the end of each month  that  are  not
directly related to a fund's operations based upon the number  of
investors  in the fund and the fund's capitalization relative  to
other  funds  they  manage.   The  Partnership  reimburses  these
expenses  subject  to  detailed  limitations  contained  in   the
Partnership Agreement.

         Management   of  the  Partnership  has   discussed   the
development  and selection of the above accounting estimates  and
the management discussion and analysis disclosures regarding them
with the managing partner of the Partnership.

Results of Operations

        For  the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005,  the
Partnership  recognized rental income from continuing  operations
of  $412,708 and $358,625, respectively.  In 2006, rental  income
increased  due  to  additional rent received  from  two  property
acquisitions in 2005, rent increases on two properties and income
received from a permanent easement on one property.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS.  (Continued)

        For  the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005,  the
Partnership  incurred  Partnership administration  expenses  from
affiliated  parties of $55,472 and $57,437, respectively.   These
administration  expenses  include  costs  associated   with   the
management of the properties, processing distributions, reporting
requirements and correspondence to the Limited Partners.   During
the   same   periods,   the  Partnership   incurred   Partnership
administration  and property management expenses  from  unrelated
parties  of  $10,751  and $9,750, respectively.   These  expenses
represent  direct payments to third parties for legal and  filing
fees,  direct  administrative costs, outside audit costs,  taxes,
insurance and other property costs.

        For  the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005,  the
Partnership  recognized interest income of  $5,577  and  $16,399,
respectively.   In  2006, interest income decreased  due  to  the
Partnership having less money invested in a money market  account
due to property acquisitions.

        In February 2005, Winn-Dixie Montgomery, Inc., the tenant
of  the  Winn-Dixie store in Panama City, Florida, and its parent
company,  Winn-Dixie,  Inc.,  filed  for  Chapter  11  bankruptcy
reorganization.  Rents are current and the Partnership expects to
continue  to receive all scheduled rents in future months  unless
the  Lease  is rejected by Winn-Dixie.  If the Lease is affirmed,
Winn-Dixie  must comply with all Lease terms.  If  the  Lease  is
rejected,  Winn-Dixie would be required to return  possession  of
the  property  to  the Partnership and the Partnership  would  be
responsible for real estate taxes and other costs associated with
maintaining  the  property.  The Partnership  has  evaluated  the
lease  and property value and decided that there is no impairment
loss  at  this time.  At March 31, 2006, the book value  of  this
property was $868,542.

        In  accordance  with  Statement of  Financial  Accounting
Standards  No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal  of
Long-Lived  Assets,  upon  complete disposal  of  a  property  or
classification of a property as Real Estate Held  for  Sale,  the
Partnership  includes  the operating  results  and  sale  of  the
property   in   discontinued  operations.    In   addition,   the
Partnership reclassifies the prior periods operating results  and
any  partial  sales  of the property to discontinued  operations.
For  the  three  months  ended March 31,  2006,  the  Partnership
recognized  income  from  discontinued  operations  of   $37,418,
representing rental income.  For the three months ended March 31,
2005,   the   Partnership  recognized  income  from  discontinued
operations  of $27,177, representing rental income less  property
management expenses and depreciation.

        Subsequent  to  March  31,  2006,  the  Partnership  sold
14.8234%  of the Eckerd drug store in Utica, New York,  in  three
separate   transactions,  to  unrelated   third   parties.    The
Partnership  received  total net sale proceeds  of  approximately
$827,000, which resulted in a net gain of approximately $161,700.
The  cost  and related accumulated depreciation of the  interests
sold was $684,881 and $19,598, respectively.  The Partnership  is
attempting  to  sell  its  remaining  25.1766%  interest  in  the
property.  At March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the  property
was classified as Real Estate Held for Sale with a book value  of
$1,795,224.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS.  (Continued)

        Inflation  has  had  a  minimal  effect  on  income  from
operations.   Leases  may contain rent increases,  based  on  the
increase  in  the  Consumer Price Index over a specified  period,
which  will result in an increase in rental income over the  term
of  the  leases.   In addition, leases may contain  rent  clauses
which  entitle  the  Partnership to receive  additional  rent  in
future  years  if gross receipts for the property exceed  certain
specified  amounts.  Increases in sales volumes of  the  tenants,
due to inflation and real sales growth, may result in an increase
in rental income over the term of the leases.  Inflation also may
cause the real estate to appreciate in value.  However, inflation
and  changing prices may have an adverse impact on the  operating
margins  of  the  properties' tenants, which could  impair  their
ability  to  pay rent and subsequently reduce the Net  Cash  Flow
available for distributions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        During  the  three  months  ended  March  31,  2006,  the
Partnership's  cash balances decreased $208,366 as  a  result  of
distributions  paid to the Partners in excess of  cash  generated
from  operating activities.  During the three months ended  March
31, 2005, the Partnership's cash balances decreased $3,948,138 as
a result of cash used to purchase property and distributions paid
to  the  Partners  in  excess of cash  generated  from  operating
activities.

        Net  cash provided by operating activities decreased from
$410,893  in 2005 to $377,492 in 2006 as a result of  net  timing
differences  in the collection of payments from the  tenants  and
the  payment  of  expenses, which were  partially  offset  by  an
increase  in  total  rental and interest income  in  2006  and  a
decrease  in  Partnership administration and property  management
expenses in 2006.

        The  major components of the Partnership's cash flow from
investing activities are investments in real estate and  proceeds
from  the  sale  of real estate.  During the three  months  ended
March 31, 2005, the Partnership expended $3,343,880 to invest  in
real  properties  (inclusive  of  acquisition  expenses)  as  the
Partnership  reinvested  cash generated from  property  sales  in
2004.

        On  January  14,  2005, the Partnership purchased  a  40%
interest  in a Jared Jewelry store in Auburn Hills, Michigan  for
$1,466,048.   The  property is leased to Sterling  Jewelers  Inc.
under a Lease Agreement with a remaining primary term of 15 years
and  annual rental payments of $102,520.  The remaining  interest
in the property was purchased by AEI Income & Growth Fund 25 LLC,
an affiliate of the Partnership.

        On  March  18,  2005,  the Partnership  purchased  a  20%
interest  in a CarMax auto superstore in Lithia Springs,  Georgia
for   $1,885,231.   The  property  is  leased  to   CarMax   Auto
Superstores,  Inc.  under  a  Lease Agreement  with  a  remaining
primary  term  of  13.4  years  and  annual  rental  payments  of
$136,080.  The remaining interests in the property were purchased
by  AEI Income & Growth Fund 24 LLC, AEI Income & Growth Fund  25
LLC   and   AEI   Private  Net  Lease  Millennium  Fund   Limited
Partnership, affiliates of the Partnership.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS.  (Continued)

        The  Partnership's primary use of cash flow,  other  than
investment   in  real  estate,  is  distribution  and  redemption
payments  to  Partners.   The Partnership  declares  its  regular
quarterly distributions before the end of each quarter  and  pays
the  distribution in the first ten days after  the  end  of  each
quarter.    The  Partnership  attempts  to  maintain   a   stable
distribution  rate from quarter to quarter.  Redemption  payments
are  paid  to  redeeming Partners in the fourth quarter  of  each
year.

        For  the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005,  the
Partnership  declared  distributions of  $409,086  and  $409,091,
respectively, which were distributed 99% to the Limited  Partners
and  1%  to the General Partners.  The Limited Partners  received
distributions  of $404,996 and $405,000 and the General  Partners
received  distributions  of $4,090 and $4,091  for  the  periods,
respectively.   In September and December 2005,  the  Partnership
declared   special  distributions  of  $303,030   and   $176,768,
respectively, of net sale proceeds, which resulted  in  a  higher
distribution payable at December 31, 2005.

        During  the  first  three months of 2006  and  2005,  the
Partnership distributed $19,606 and $63,841 of net proceeds  from
sales  completed in 2004 to the Limited and General  Partners  as
part of their quarterly distributions, which represented a return
of  capital  of  $0.85  and $2.77 per Limited  Partnership  Unit,
respectively.  The Partnership anticipates the remaining net sale
proceeds  will  either  be reinvested in additional  property  or
distributed to the Partners in the future.

        The  Partnership may acquire Units from Limited  Partners
who have tendered their Units to the Partnership.  Such Units may
be acquired at a discount.  The Partnership will not be obligated
to purchase in any year any number of Units that, when aggregated
with  all  other transfers of Units that have occurred since  the
beginning   of  the  same  calendar  year  (excluding   Permitted
Transfers as defined in the Partnership Agreement), would  exceed
5%  of the total number of Units outstanding on January 1 of such
year.  In no event shall the Partnership be obligated to purchase
Units if, in the sole discretion of the Managing General Partner,
such  purchase  would  impair the capital  or  operation  of  the
Partnership.

        During 2005, four Limited Partners redeemed a total of 17
Partnership  Units for $9,222 in accordance with the  Partnership
Agreement.  The Partnership acquired these Units using  Net  Cash
Flow  from  operations.  In prior years, a total  of  54  Limited
Partners  redeemed 1,180.55 Partnership Units for $939,802.   The
redemptions  increase the remaining Limited  Partners'  ownership
interest  in  the  Partnership.  As a result of these  redemption
payments  and pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the  General
Partners received distributions of $93 in 2005.

       The continuing rent payments from the properties, together
with  cash  generated from property sales, should be adequate  to
fund   continuing   distributions  and  meet  other   Partnership
obligations on both a short-term and long-term basis.

ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

        (a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

        Under  the  supervision  and with  the  participation  of
management, including its President and Chief Financial  Officer,
the  Managing  General Partner of the Partnership  evaluated  the
effectiveness  of  the  design and operation  of  its  disclosure
controls  and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-14(c) under  the
Exchange  Act).   Based upon that evaluation, the  President  and
Chief Financial Officer of the Managing General Partner concluded
that,  as  of  the end of the period covered by this report,  the
disclosure  controls  and  procedures  of  the  Partnership   are
adequately  designed to ensure that information  required  to  be
disclosed  by  us  in  the reports we file or  submit  under  the
Exchange  Act  is recorded, processed, summarized  and  reported,
within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms.

        (b)  Changes in internal controls

         There   were   no  significant  changes  made   in   the
Partnership's  internal controls during the  most  recent  period
covered  by  this  report that have materially affected,  or  are
reasonably   likely  to  materially  affect,  the   Partnership's
internal control over financial reporting.


                   PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
