(2)  Organization -

     AEI   Income   &   Growth   Fund  XXI  Limited   Partnership
     ("Partnership")  was formed to acquire and lease  commercial
     properties   to   operating  tenants.    The   Partnership's
     operations  are  managed by AEI Fund  Management  XXI,  Inc.
     ("AFM"),  the Managing General Partner.  Robert P.  Johnson,
     the  President  and  sole director of  AFM,  serves  as  the
     Individual   General  Partner.   AFM  is  a   wholly   owned
     subsidiary  of AEI Capital Corporation of which Mr.  Johnson
     is  the  majority  shareholder.  AEI Fund  Management,  Inc.
     ("AEI"),  an  affiliate of AFM, performs the  administrative
     and operating functions for the Partnership.

     The   terms  of  the  Partnership  offering  called  for   a
     subscription  price of $1,000 per Limited Partnership  Unit,
     payable   on  acceptance  of  the  offer.   The  Partnership
     commenced   operations  on  April  14,  1995  when   minimum
     subscriptions    of   1,500   Limited   Partnership    Units
     ($1,500,000)  were  accepted.   On  January  31,  1997,  the
     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  related to discontinued  operations  in  the
     prior  period's financial statements have been  reclassified
     to  conform  to  2009 presentation.  These reclassifications

(6)  Discontinued Operations -

     In   March  2009,  Tumbleweed,  Inc.,  the  tenant  of   the
     Tumbleweed  restaurant  in  Fort Wayne,  Indiana  filed  for
     Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization.  Tumbleweed closed the
     restaurant and filed a motion with the bankruptcy  court  to
     reject the Lease for this property.  The court approved  the
     motion and Tumbleweed returned possession of the property to
     the  Partnership.  The Partnership has listed  the  property
     for  sale with a real estate broker in the Fort Wayne  area.
     While the property is vacant, the Partnership is responsible
     for  real  estate  taxes  and other  costs  associated  with
     maintaining  the property.  Based on an analysis  of  market
     conditions  in  the  area,  the Partnership  determined  the
     property was impaired.  As a result, in the first quarter of
     2009,  a  charge to discontinued operations for real  estate
     impairment  of  $396,839  was  recognized,  which  was   the
     difference between the carrying value at March 31,  2009  of
     $1,046,839 and the estimated fair value of $650,000.   Based
     on  marketing  efforts to date and an  updated  analysis  of
     market conditions in the area, the Partnership recognized an
     additional  real estate impairment of $210,000  to  decrease
     the  carrying value to the estimated fair value of  $440,000
     as of September 30, 2009.  The charges were recorded against
     the  cost of the land and building.  At September 30,  2009,
     the property was classified as Real Estate Held for Sale.

     During  the  first  nine  months  of  2009  and  2008,   the
     Partnership  distributed net sale proceeds  of  $51,320  and
     $407,134  to  the Limited and General Partners  as  part  of
     their quarterly distributions, which represented a return of
     capital  of  $2.23 and $17.70 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 periods ended September 30:

(7)  Fair Value Measurements -

     Fair  value, as defined by United States Generally  Accepted
     Accounting  Principles ("US GAAP"), is the price that  would
     be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability
     in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
     measurement  date  in  the principal  or  most  advantageous
     market.  US GAAP establishes a hierarchy in determining  the
     fair  value  of  an  asset  or liability.   The  fair  value
     hierarchy  has  three levels of inputs, both observable  and
     unobservable. US GAAP requires the utilization of the lowest
     possible  level  of input to determine fair value.  Level  1
     inputs include quoted market prices in an active market  for
     identical assets or liabilities.  Level 2 inputs are  market
     data,  other than Level 1 inputs, that are observable either
     directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted market
     prices  for  similar  assets or liabilities,  quoted  market
     prices   in   an  inactive  market,  and  other   observable
     information that can be corroborated by market data. Level 3
     inputs  are  unobservable and corroborated by little  or  no
     market data.

     The  Partnership  had  no financial  assets  or  liabilities
     measured  at fair value on a recurring basis or nonrecurring
     basis    that   would   require   disclosure   under    this
     pronouncement.

     The  Tumbleweed  restaurant,  with  a  carrying  amount   of
     $1,046,839  at  March  31, 2009, was  written  down  to  its
     estimated fair value of $650,000 after completing our  long-
     lived  asset  valuation analysis.  The resulting  impairment
     charge  in  the  first quarter of $396,839 was  included  in
     earnings  for  the  period.  At September  30,  2009,  after
     completing  our  long-lived asset  valuation  analysis,  the
     Tumbleweed restaurant was further written down to  $440,000,
     its  estimated  fair  value  at that  date.   The  resulting
     impairment  charge  in  the third quarter  of  $210,000  was
     included in earnings for the period.  In both instances, the
     fair  value of the property was based upon comparable  sales
     of  similar properties, which are considered Level 3  inputs
     in the valuation hierarchy.

(8)  Subsequent Events -

     The  Partnership  has  evaluated subsequent  events  through
     November  10, 2009, the date which the financial  statements
     were  available  to be issued.  Subsequent events,  if  any,
     were  disclosed  in the appropriate note  in  the  Notes  to
     Financial Statements.

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

        This  section contains "forward-looking statements" 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, the
sufficiency  of  cash  to  meet  operating  expenses,  rates   of
distribution,  and  other  matters.  These,  and  other  forward-
looking  statements,  should 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
     effects 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;

     the effect of tenant defaults; and

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

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.

        Prior  to  January  1,  2009, the  Partnership  purchased
properties and recorded them in the financial statements at  cost
(including  capitalized acquisition expenses).  For  acquisitions
completed  on  or  after  January  1,  2009,  acquisition-related
transaction costs will be expensed as incurred as a result of the
Partnership  adopting new guidance on business combinations  that
expands  the  scope  of acquisition accounting.  The  Partnership
tests long-lived assets for recoverability when events or changes
in  circumstances  indicate that the carrying value  may  not  be
recoverable.   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.   Changes
in  these  assumptions or analysis may cause material changes  in
the carrying value of the properties.

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

        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 nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the
Partnership  recognized rental income from continuing  operations
of  $796,585 and $671,438, respectively.  In 2009, rental  income
increased  due  to additional rent received from  three  property
acquisitions  in  2008  and 2009, and  a  rent  increase  on  one
property.

       For the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the
Partnership  incurred  Partnership administration  expenses  from
affiliated parties of $169,666 and $167,809, respectively.  These
administration  expenses  include  costs  associated   with   the
management of the properties, processing distributions, reporting
requirements and communication with the Limited Partners.  During
the   same   periods,   the  Partnership   incurred   Partnership
administration  and property management expenses  from  unrelated
parties  of  $28,819 and $29,536, 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 nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the
Partnership  recognized interest income of $51,106  and  $52,333,
respectively.  In 2009, interest income decreased  as  result  of
the  Partnership  having less money invested in  a  money  market
account due to property acquisitions and lower money market rates
in  2009,  when  compared to 2008.  This decrease  was  partially
offset  by $40,189 of interest received on construction  advances
in 2009.

        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  of  the  property  to  discontinued
operations.   For the nine months ended September 30,  2009,  the
Partnership  recognized  a loss from discontinued  operations  of
$300,279, representing a real estate impairment loss of $606,839,
which  was  partially  offset  by  rental  income  less  property
management expenses and depreciation of $170,676 and  a  gain  on
disposal  of real estate of $135,884.  For the nine months  ended
September  30,  2008,  the  Partnership  recognized  income  from
discontinued  operations of $916,387, representing rental  income
less  property management expenses and depreciation  of  $280,478
and gain on disposal of real estate of $635,909.

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

        On  January 15, 2008, the Partnership sold its  remaining
13.4184%  interest in the KinderCare daycare center in  Kimberly,
Wisconsin to an unrelated third party.  The Partnership  received
net  sale proceeds of $258,749, which resulted in a net  gain  of
$99,192.   The cost and related accumulated depreciation  of  the
interest sold was $182,253 and $22,696, respectively.

        In  March 2008, the Partnership entered into an agreement
to  sell  the Johnny Carino's restaurant in Laredo, Texas  to  an
unrelated third party.  On May 15, 2008, the sale closed with the
Partnership receiving net proceeds of $2,896,269, which  resulted
in  a  net  gain of $536,717.  At the time of sale, the cost  and
related  accumulated  depreciation was $2,605,079  and  $245,527,
respectively.

        On  December 23, 2008, the Partnership sold 7.767% of the
KinderCare  daycare center in Ballwin, Missouri to  an  unrelated
third  party.   The  Partnership received net  sale  proceeds  of
$175,132, which resulted in a net gain of $80,947.  The cost  and
related  accumulated  depreciation  of  the  interest  sold   was
$117,886 and $23,701, respectively.

        On  September 3, 2009, the Partnership sold an additional
14.0515% of the KinderCare daycare center in Ballwin, Missouri to
an  unrelated  third party.  The Partnership  received  net  sale
proceeds  of $306,486, which resulted in a net gain of  $136,094.
The  cost  and  related accumulated depreciation of the  interest
sold was $213,271 and $42,879, respectively.  The Partnership  is
attempting  to  sell  its  remaining  78.1815%  interest  in  the
property.   At  September  30, 2009 and December  31,  2008,  the
property  was  classified as Real Estate Held  for  Sale  with  a
carrying value of $948,048 and $1,118,440, respectively.

        On  May  28,  2009,  the Partnership sold  its  remaining
1.1839%  interest  in the Johnny Carino's restaurant  in  Austin,
Texas to an unrelated third party.  The Partnership received  net
sale  proceeds of $22,722, which resulted in a net loss of  $210.
The  cost  and  related accumulated depreciation of the  interest
sold was $27,083 and $4,151, respectively.

        The  Partnership  is  attempting  to  sell  its  20.4025%
interest  in  the Winn-Dixie store in Panama City,  Florida.   At
September  30,  2009  and  December 31, 2008,  the  property  was
classified as Real Estate Held for Sale with a carrying value  of
$785,099.

        In  March  2009,  Tumbleweed, Inc.,  the  tenant  of  the
Tumbleweed restaurant in Fort Wayne, Indiana filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy reorganization.  Tumbleweed closed the restaurant  and
filed a motion with the bankruptcy court to reject the Lease  for
this  property.   The  court approved the motion  and  Tumbleweed
returned  possession  of the property to  the  Partnership.   The
Partnership  has listed the property for sale with a real  estate
broker in the Fort Wayne area.  While the property is vacant, the
Partnership is responsible for real estate taxes and other  costs
associated  with maintaining the property.  Based on an  analysis
of  market conditions in the area, the Partnership determined the
property  was  impaired.  As a result, in the  first  quarter  of
2009,  a  charge  to  discontinued  operations  for  real  estate
impairment  of $396,839 was recognized, which was the  difference
between  the  carrying value at March 31, 2009 of $1,046,839  and
the estimated fair value of $650,000.  Based on marketing efforts
to date and an updated analysis of market conditions in the area,
the  Partnership recognized an additional real estate  impairment
of  $210,000 to decrease the carrying value to the estimated fair
value  of  $440,000 as of September 30, 2009.  The  charges  were
recorded against the cost of the land and building.  At September
30,  2009,  the property was classified as Real Estate  Held  for
Sale.


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

         Management  believes  inflation  has  not  significantly
affected  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.  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  nine months ended September  30,  2009,  the
Partnership's  cash balances decreased $922,735 as  a  result  of
cash  used  to purchase property, which was partially  offset  by
cash  generated from the sale of property and cash generated from
operating  activities  in  excess of distributions  paid  to  the
Partners.   During the nine months ended September 30, 2008,  the
Partnership's  cash balances decreased $902,408 as  a  result  of
cash  used  to purchase property and distributions  paid  to  the
Partners  in  excess of cash generated from operating activities,
which  were partially offset by cash generated from the  sale  of
property.

        Net  cash provided by operating activities decreased from
$899,556 in 2008 to $884,510 in 2009 as a result of a decrease in
total  rental  and  interest income in 2009 and  an  increase  in
Partnership  administration and property management  expenses  in
2009,  which  were partially offset by net timing differences  in
the  collection of payments from the tenants and the  payment  of
expenses.

        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 nine  months  ended
September 30, 2009 and 2008, the Partnership generated cash  flow
from  the  sale  of  real  estate  of  $329,208  and  $3,155,018,
respectively.  During the same periods, the Partnership  expended
$1,200,332  and  $3,629,090,  respectively,  to  invest  in  real
properties  as  the  Partnership reinvested cash  generated  from
property sales.

        On  January  31,  2008, the Partnership purchased  a  54%
interest  in  a  Best  Buy  store in Eau  Claire,  Wisconsin  for
$3,637,706.   The  property is leased to Best  Buy  Stores,  L.P.
under a Lease Agreement with a remaining primary term of 10 years
and  initial annual rent of $256,001 for the interest  purchased.
The  remaining  interests in the property were purchased  by  AEI
Income & Growth Fund 23 LLC and AEI Income & Growth Fund 26  LLC,
affiliates of the Partnership.

        On  October  2,  2008, the Partnership  purchased  a  55%
interest  in a Fresenius Medical Center in Shreveport,  Louisiana
for   $1,360,617.    The  property  is  leased   to   Bio-Medical
Applications of Louisiana, LLC, a subsidiary of Fresenius Medical
Care  Holdings,  Inc., under a Lease Agreement with  a  remaining
primary term of 9.8 years and initial annual rent of $102,520 for
the  interest purchased.  The remaining interest in the  property
was purchased by AEI Income & Growth Fund 24 LLC, an affiliate of
the Partnership.

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

        On  November  21, 2008, the Partnership purchased  a  63%
interest  in  a  parcel of land in Rapid City, South  Dakota  for
$576,274.  The Partnership obtained title to the land in the form
of   an  undivided  fee  simple  interest  in  the  63%  interest
purchased.   Simultaneous  with the purchase  of  the  land,  the
Partnership entered into a Development Financing Agreement  under
which the Partnership advanced funds to Brad and Dad, LLC for the
construction of a Tractor Supply Company store on the  site.   At
September  30, 2009, the balance due for construction  costs  was
$77,235,  which was subsequently paid to Brad and Dad, LLC.   The
Partnership's share of the total acquisition costs, including the
cost of the land, was $1,951,559.  The remaining interest in  the
property  was purchased by AEI Income & Growth Fund  27  LLC,  an
affiliate of the Partnership.

        The property is leased to Tractor Supply Company under  a
Lease  Agreement  with  a primary term of 15  years  and  initial
annual rent of $141,750 for the interest purchased.  Pursuant  to
the  Lease, the tenant commenced paying rent on August  6,  2009,
the   day  the  store  opened  for  business.   Pursuant  to  the
development agreement, for the period from November 21,  2008  to
August  5, 2009, Brad and Dad, LLC paid the Partnership  interest
at  a  rate  of  6.9% on the purchase price of the land  and  the
amounts  advanced for construction of the building.  Pursuant  to
the  Lease, any improvements to the land during the term  of  the
Lease become the property of the Partnership.

        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 week 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 nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the
Partnership  declared distributions of $878,786  and  $1,298,982,
respectively, which were distributed 99% to the Limited  Partners
and  1%  to the General Partners.  The Limited Partners  received
distributions of $869,998 and $1,285,992 and the General Partners
received  distributions of $8,788 and $12,990  for  the  periods,
respectively.   In  March  2008 and June  2008,  the  Partnership
declared  special distributions of net sale proceeds  of  $58,586
and  $176,768, respectively.  In 2009, distributions  were  lower
due  to  decreases in the distribution rate per  Unit,  effective
January  1, 2009 and April 1, 2009, and the special distributions
in 2008.

        During  the  first  nine months of  2009  and  2008,  the
Partnership distributed net sale proceeds of $51,320 and $407,134
to  the  Limited and General Partners as part of their  quarterly
distributions, which represented a return of capital of $2.23 and
$17.70   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.

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

        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 2009 and 2008, the Partnership did not redeem  any
Units  from the Limited Partners.  In prior years, a total of  60
Limited   Partners  redeemed  1,220.89  Partnership   Units   for
$958,469.    The  redemptions  increase  the  remaining   Limited
Partners' ownership interest in the Partnership.

       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.

The Economy and Market Conditions

       The impact of conditions in the current economy, including
the  turmoil  in the credit markets, has adversely affected  many
real   estate  companies.   However,  the  absence  of   mortgage
financing on the Partnership's properties eliminates the risks of
foreclosure and debt-refinancing that can negatively  impact  the
value  and  distributions  of leveraged  real  estate  companies.
Nevertheless, a prolonged economic downturn may adversely  affect
the operations of the Partnership's tenants and their cash flows.
If  a  tenant  were  to  default on its  lease  obligations,  the
Partnership's  income  would decrease,  its  distributions  would
likely be reduced and the value of its properties might decline.

        Historically,  the Partnership has sold properties  at  a
gain  and  distributed the gain proceeds as part of  its  regular
quarterly  distributions,  and to make special  distributions  on
occasion.   The  remaining  sales  proceeds  were  reinvested  in
additional properties.  Beginning in the fourth quarter of  2008,
general  economic conditions caused the volume of property  sales
to  slow dramatically for all real estate sellers.  In 2009,  the
Partnership will likely complete fewer property sales than it has
in the past.  Until property sales occur, quarterly distributions
going  forward will reflect the distribution of net  core  rental
income  and capital reserves, if any. Distribution rates in  2009
are  expected  to  be variable and less than recent  distribution
rates   until  such  time  as  economic  conditions   allow   the
Partnership   to,  once  again,  begin  selling   properties   at
acceptable prices and generating gains for distribution.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

       Not required for a smaller reporting company.

ITEM 4.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

       (a)  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  our  disclosure
controls  and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under  the
Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934 (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, our disclosure controls  and
procedures  were effective in ensuring that information  required
to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under
the  Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported
within  the time periods specified in applicable rules and  forms
and  that  such  information is accumulated and  communicated  to
management,  including the President and Chief Financial  Officer
of  the  Managing General Partner, in a manner that allows timely
decisions regarding required disclosure.

       (b)  Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

        During  the  most recent period covered by  this  report,
there  has  been no change in our internal control over financial
reporting  (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange  Act)
that  has  materially  affected,  or  is  reasonably  likely   to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.

       (a) None.

       (b) Not applicable.

        (c) Pursuant to Section 7.7 of the Partnership Agreement,
each  Limited  Partner  has the right to  present  Units  to  the
Partnership  for  purchase by submitting notice to  the  Managing
General  Partner  during September of each  year.   The  purchase
price  of  the  Units  is  based on a formula  specified  in  the
Partnership  Agreement.  Units tendered to  the  Partnership  are
redeemed  on  October 1st of each year subject to  the  following
limitations.  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  the period covered  by  this  report,  the
Partnership did not purchase any Units.
