                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

Note A - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying  unaudited consolidated financial statements of Davidson Income
Real Estate,  L.P. (the  "Partnership"  or  "Registrant")  have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted  accounting  principles for interim financial
information  and  with the  instructions  to Form  10-QSB  and  Item  310(b)  of
Regulation  S-B.  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 Davidson Diversified  Properties,  Inc.
(the  "Managing  General  Partner"),   all  adjustments  (consisting  of  normal
recurring  accruals)  considered  necessary  for a fair  presentation  have been
included. Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2005, are
not  necessarily  indicative  of the results that may be expected for the fiscal
year  ending  December  31,  2005.  For  further   information,   refer  to  the
consolidated   financial  statements  and  footnotes  thereto  included  in  the
Partnership's  Annual  Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended  December
31, 2004. The Managing  General Partner is a subsidiary of Apartment  Investment
and  Management  Company  ("AIMCO"),  a publicly  traded real estate  investment
trust.

Note B - Transactions with Affiliated Parties

The Partnership has no employees and depends on the Managing General Partner and
its  affiliates  for  the  management  and  administration  of  all  Partnership
activities.  The Partnership  Agreement  provides for (i) payments to affiliates
for services and (ii)  reimbursement of certain expenses  incurred by affiliates
on behalf of the Partnership.

Affiliates of the Managing General Partner receive 5% of gross receipts from all
of  the  Partnership's   properties  as  compensation  for  providing   property
management  services.  The  Partnership  paid to such  affiliates  approximately
$43,000  and  $38,000  for the  three  months  ended  March  31,  2005 and 2004,
respectively, which is included in operating expenses.

An  affiliate  of  the  Managing   General   Partner   charged  the  Partnership
reimbursements of accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately
$42,000  and  $74,000  for the  three  months  ended  March  31,  2005 and 2004,
respectively,  which is  included  in general and  administrative  expenses  and
investment  properties.   The  portion  of  these  reimbursements   included  in
investment  properties  for the three  months  ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 are
fees related to construction management services provided by an affiliate of the
Managing General Partner of approximately $12,000 and $44,000, respectively. The
construction  management  service fees are  calculated  based on a percentage of
current  year  additions  to  investment  properties.  At March  31,  2005,  the
Partnership owed  approximately  $46,000 of accrued  accountable  administrative
expenses to an affiliate of the Managing General  Partner,  which is included in
due to affiliates on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

During the three  months  ended  March 31,  2005 the  Managing  General  Partner
advanced  approximately  $185,000 to the Partnership to pay real estate taxes at
one of the investment  properties.  There were no such advances during the three
months ended March 31,  2004,  however,  the  Partnership  repaid  approximately
$51,000 of previous  advances during this period.  At March 31, 2005, the amount
of  outstanding  loans  and  interest  was  approximately  $1,583,000,  which is
included in due to affiliates on the  accompanying  consolidated  balance sheet.
Interest  on the  advances  is  charged  at prime plus 2%, or 7.75% at March 31,
2005. Interest expense on the advances was approximately $24,000 and $17,000 for
the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

The  Partnership  insures its properties up to certain  limits through  coverage
provided by AIMCO which is  generally  self-insured  for a portion of losses and
liabilities  related to workers  compensation,  property  casualty  and  vehicle
liability. The Partnership insures its properties above the AIMCO limits through
insurance  policies  obtained  by  AIMCO  from  insurers  unaffiliated  with the
Managing  General  Partner.  During the three months  ended March 31, 2005,  the
Partnership  was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates  approximately  $36,000 for
hazard insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration.
Additional  charges  will be  incurred by the  Partnership  during 2005 as other
insurance policies renew later in the year. The Partnership was charged by AIMCO
and its  affiliates  approximately  $51,000  for  insurance  coverage  and  fees
associated with policy claims  administration during the year ended December 31,
2004.

Note C - Investment in Joint Venture

The  Partnership  owns a 17.5% interest in the Sterling Crest Joint Venture with
Davidson Growth Plus, L.P., an affiliate of the Managing General Partner,  which
owns the remaining 82.5% of the joint venture.

There were no  distributions  received from the joint  venture  during the three
months  ended March 31, 2005 and 2004.  During the three  months ended March 31,
2005 and 2004,  the  Partnership  recognized  approximately  $15,000 and $9,000,
respectively,  of equity in loss of the joint  venture.  At March 31, 2005,  the
Partnership had received  distributions  and recognized  equity in losses of the
joint  venture  in  excess  of  its  general  partnership  interest  and  has an
investment deficiency of approximately $881,000.

The following table  represents the net loss of the Sterling Crest Joint Venture
for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 (in thousands):

Note D - Casualty Gain

In December 2002, Bexley House Apartments  experienced a fire, causing damage to
32 units.  Reconstruction of the units was completed during the first quarter of
2004.  During  the  three  months  ended  March 31,  2004,  a  casualty  gain of
approximately $388,000 was recorded at Bexley House Apartments. The gain was the
result of the  recognition  of insurance  recoveries of  approximately  $391,000
partially offset by the write off of approximately $3,000 of undepreciated fixed
assets.

Note E - Contingencies

In March 1998, several putative unit holders of limited partnership units of the
Partnership  commenced an action  entitled  Rosalie  Nuanes,  et al. v. Insignia
Financial Group, Inc., et al. (the "Nuanes action") in the Superior Court of the
State of  California  for the  County  of San  Mateo.  The  plaintiffs  named as
defendants,  among others,  the  Partnership,  its Managing  General Partner and
several of their  affiliated  partnerships  and corporate  entities.  The action
purported  to  assert  claims  on  behalf  of a class of  limited  partners  and
derivatively  on behalf  of a number  of  limited  partnerships  (including  the
Partnership)  that are named as nominal  defendants,  challenging,  among  other
things,  the  acquisition  of  interests  in certain  Managing  General  Partner
entities by Insignia Financial Group, Inc.  ("Insignia") and entities that were,
at one  time,  affiliates  of  Insignia;  past  tender  offers  by the  Insignia
affiliates to acquire limited partnership units;  management of the partnerships
by the  Insignia  affiliates;  and the series of  transactions  which  closed on
October 1, 1998 and February 26, 1999 whereby  Insignia and Insignia  Properties
Trust,  respectively,  were merged into AIMCO.  The plaintiffs  sought  monetary
damages and equitable relief, including judicial dissolution of the Partnership.
In addition,  during the third quarter of 2001, a complaint  captioned Heller v.
Insignia  Financial  Group (the  "Heller  action")  was filed  against  the same
defendants  that are named in the  Nuanes  action.  On or about  August 6, 2001,
plaintiffs filed a first amended  complaint.  The Heller action was brought as a
purported derivative action, and asserted claims for, among other things, breach
of fiduciary  duty,  unfair  competition,  conversion,  unjust  enrichment,  and
judicial  dissolution.  On January 28, 2002, the trial court granted  defendants
motion to strike the complaint.

On January 8, 2003,  the parties filed a  Stipulation  of Settlement in proposed
settlement of the Nuanes action and the Heller action.

On June 13, 2003, the court granted final approval of the settlement and entered
judgment in both the Nuanes and Heller actions.  On August 12, 2003, an objector
("Objector") filed an appeal (the "Appeal") seeking to vacate and/or reverse the
order approving the settlement and entering judgment thereto. On May 4, 2004 the
Objector filed a second appeal  challenging the court's use of a referee and its
order requiring Objector to pay those fees.

On March 21, 2005, the Court of Appeals issued opinions in both pending appeals.
With regard to the settlement and judgment entered thereto, the Court of Appeals
vacated  the trial  court's  order and  remanded  to the trial court for further
findings  on the basis that the "state of the record is  insufficient  to permit
meaningful  appellate  review".  With regard to the second appeal,  the Court of
Appeals  reversed the order requiring the Objector to pay referee fees. On April
26, 2005,  the Court of Appeals  lifted the stay of a pending  appeal related to
the Heller action and the trial court's order striking the  complaint.  On April
28, 2005, the Objector  filed a Petition for Review with the California  Supreme
Court in connection with the opinion vacating the order approving settlement and
remanding for further findings.  The Managing General Partner and its affiliates
are  currently  scheduled  to file an answer to  Objector's  petition on May 18,
2005.

The  Managing  General  Partner  does  not  anticipate  that  any  costs  to the
Partnership, whether legal or settlement costs, associated with these cases will
be material to the Partnership's overall operations.

As previously  disclosed AIMCO Properties L.P. and NHP Management Company,  both
affiliates of the Managing General Partner, are defendants in a lawsuit alleging
that they willfully violated the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA") by failing to
pay  maintenance  workers  overtime  for all hours worked in excess of forty per
week.  The  complaint  attempts to bring a collective  action under the FLSA and
seeks to certify state subclasses in California,  Maryland,  and the District of
Columbia.  Specifically,  the plaintiffs  contend that AIMCO Properties L.P. and
NHP Management  Company failed to compensate  maintenance  workers for time that
they were required to be "on-call."  Additionally,  the complaint  alleges AIMCO
Properties  L.P. and NHP  Management  Company  failed to comply with the FLSA in
compensating  maintenance  workers for time that they worked in  responding to a
call  while  "on-call."  The  defendants  have  filed an answer  to the  amended
complaint  denying the substantive  allegations.  Oral argument  relating to the
certification of the collective  action is scheduled for May 12, 2005.  Although
the outcome of any  litigation is  uncertain,  AIMCO  Properties,  L.P. does not
believe that the ultimate  outcome  will have a material  adverse  effect on its
consolidated  financial  condition  or results  of  operations.  Similarly,  the
Managing  General Partner does not believe that the ultimate outcome will have a
material adverse effect on the Partnership's consolidated financial condition or
results of operations.

The  Partnership  is unaware  of any other  pending  or  outstanding  litigation
matters  involving  it or its  investment  properties  that are not of a routine
nature arising in the ordinary course of business.

Environmental

Various  Federal,  state and local laws subject  property owners or operators to
liability for management,  and the costs of removal or  remediation,  of certain
hazardous  substances  present on a property.  Such laws often impose  liability
without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for,
the release or presence of the  hazardous  substances.  The  presence of, or the
failure to manage or remedy properly,  hazardous substances may adversely affect
occupancy at affected  apartment  communities and the ability to sell or finance
affected properties.  In addition to the costs associated with investigation and
remediation  actions brought by government  agencies,  the presence of hazardous
substances  on a  property  could  result in claims by  private  plaintiffs  for
personal injury,  disease,  disability or other  infirmities.  Various laws also
impose  liability for the cost of removal,  remediation or disposal of hazardous
substances  through a  licensed  disposal  or  treatment  facility.  Anyone  who
arranges for the disposal or treatment of hazardous  substances  is  potentially
liable  under such laws.  These laws often impose  liability  whether or not the
person arranging for the disposal ever owned or operated the disposal  facility.
In  connection  with  the  ownership  and  operation  of  its  properties,   the
Partnership could  potentially be liable for environmental  liabilities or costs
associated with its properties.

Mold

The Partnership is aware of lawsuits  against owners and managers of multifamily
properties asserting claims of personal injury and property damage caused by the
presence of mold, some of which have resulted in substantial  monetary judgments
or settlements. The Partnership has only limited insurance coverage for property
damage loss claims  arising from the  presence of mold and for  personal  injury
claims related to mold exposure. Affiliates of the Managing General Partner have
implemented a national  policy and  procedures to prevent or eliminate mold from
its properties  and the Managing  General  Partner  believes that these measures
will  eliminate,  or at least  minimize,  the  effects  that mold  could have on
residents.  To date,  the  Partnership  has not incurred  any material  costs or
liabilities  relating to claims of mold  exposure  or to abate mold  conditions.
Because the law  regarding  mold is unsettled and subject to change the Managing
General  Partner  can make no  assurance  that  liabilities  resulting  from the
presence of or exposure to mold will not have a material  adverse  effect on the
Partnership's consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

SEC Investigation

The  Central  Regional  Office of the  United  States  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission (the "SEC") is conducting a formal investigation  relating to certain
matters.  Although  the staff of the SEC is not limited in the areas that it may
investigate,   AIMCO  believes  the  areas  of  investigation   include  AIMCO's
miscalculated   monthly  net  rental  income  figures  in  third  quarter  2003,
forecasted  guidance,  accounts  payable,  rent  concessions,   vendor  rebates,
capitalization of payroll and certain other costs, and tax credit  transactions.
At the end of the first quarter of 2005, the SEC added certain tender offers for
limited partnership interests as an area of investigation.  AIMCO is cooperating
fully.  AIMCO is not able to predict  when the  investigation  will be resolved.
AIMCO does not believe  that the ultimate  outcome will have a material  adverse
effect  on its  consolidated  financial  condition  or  results  of  operations.
Similarly,  the  Managing  General  Partner  does not believe  that the ultimate
outcome will have a material  adverse effect on the  Partnership's  consolidated
financial condition or results of operations.


ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

The matters discussed in this report contain certain forward-looking statements,
including, without limitation, statements regarding future financial performance
and the effect of government  regulations.  Actual results may differ materially
from those described in the forward-looking statements and will be affected by a
variety of risks and factors including,  without limitation:  national and local
economic  conditions;  the terms of  governmental  regulations  that  affect the
Registrant and interpretations of those regulations; the competitive environment
in which the Registrant operates;  financing risks, including the risk that cash
flows from operations may be insufficient to meet required payments of principal
and interest;  real estate risks, including variations of real estate values and
the general  economic  climate in local markets and  competition  for tenants in
such markets;  litigation,  including  costs  associated  with  prosecuting  and
defending  claims  and  any  adverse   outcomes,   and  possible   environmental
liabilities.   Readers  should  carefully  review  the  Partnership's  financial
statements and the notes thereto,  as well as the risk factors  described in the
documents  the  Partnership  files  from  time to time with the  Securities  and
Exchange Commission.

The Partnership's  investment  properties consist of three apartment  complexes.
The following  table sets forth the average  occupancy of the properties for the
three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004:

                                                   Average Occupancy
      Property                                      2005       2004

      Lakeside Apartments                           95%        94%
         Charlotte, North Carolina
      Bexley House Apartments                       82%        64%
         Columbus, Ohio (1)
      Covington Pointe Apartments                   95%        85%
         Dallas, Texas (2)

(1)      The Managing  General  Partner  attributes the increase in occupancy at
         Bexley House  Apartments to the completion of 32 units during the first
         quarter of 2004 that were destroyed by a fire in December 2002.

   (2)   The Managing  General  Partner  attributes the increase in occupancy at
         Covington Pointe Apartments to a new pricing  structure,  which is more
         competitive in the local market.

The  Partnership's  financial  results depend upon a number of factors including
the  ability to attract  and  maintain  tenants  at the  investment  properties,
interest  rates on mortgage  loans,  costs  incurred  to operate the  investment
properties,  general  economic  conditions  and weather.  As part of the ongoing
business plan of the  Partnership,  the Managing  General  Partner  monitors the
rental market  environment  of each of its  investment  properties to assess the
feasibility of increasing rents,  maintaining or increasing occupancy levels and
protecting the Partnership from increases in expenses. As part of this plan, the
Managing  General Partner attempts to protect the Partnership from the burden of
inflation-related  increases in expenses by increasing  rents and  maintaining a
high overall  occupancy  level.  However,  the Managing  General Partner may use
rental  concessions  and  rental  rate  reductions  to offset  softening  market
conditions, accordingly, there is no guarantee that the Managing General Partner
will be able to  sustain  such a plan.  Further,  a number of  factors  that are
outside the control of the  Partnership  such as the local economic  climate and
weather can adversely or positively affect the Partnership's financial results.

Results of Operations

The  Partnership  had net loss of  approximately  $121,000  for the three months
ended March 31, 2005  compared to net income of  approximately  $252,000 for the
three  months  ended  March 31,  2004.  The  decrease  in net income is due to a
decrease in total  revenues and an increase in total  expenses.  Total  revenues
decreased due to the recognition in 2004 of a casualty gain partially  offset by
an increase in rental  income.  Rental  income  increased  due to  increases  in
occupancy  at  all  of  the  investment   properties,   primarily  Bexley  House
Apartments,  and in the average  rental rates at  Covington  Pointe and Lakeside
Apartments.

In December 2002, Bexley House Apartments  experienced a fire, causing damage to
32 units.  Reconstruction of the units was completed during the first quarter of
2004.  During  the  three  months  ended  March 31,  2004,  a  casualty  gain of
approximately $388,000 was recorded at Bexley House Apartments. The gain was the
result of the  recognition  of insurance  recoveries of  approximately  $391,000
partially offset by the write off of approximately $3,000 of undepreciated fixed
assets.

The  increase in total  expenses is due to an  increase  in  operating  expense.
Operating  expense  increased due to an increase in property  expense.  Property
expense  increased due to an increase in payroll and related costs at all of the
investment properties.

Included in general and administrative  expense for the three months ended March
31, 2005 and 2004 are management  reimbursements to the Managing General Partner
as allowed  under the  Partnership  Agreement.  Also  included  in  general  and
administrative  expenses  are costs  associated  with the  quarterly  and annual
communications  with  investors  and  regulatory  agencies  and the annual audit
required by the Partnership Agreement.

The  Partnership  owns a 17.5%  interest in Sterling  Crest Joint  Venture  (the
"Joint Venture"). The Partnership recognized equity in loss of the joint venture
of  approximately  $15,000 and $9,000 for the three  months ended March 31, 2005
and 2004, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At  March  31,  2005,  the  Partnership   had  cash  and  cash   equivalents  of
approximately  $215,000  compared to  approximately  $187,000 at March 31, 2004.
Cash and cash equivalents  decreased  approximately  $107,000 since December 31,
2004 due to  approximately  $62,000  of cash used in  operating  activities  and
approximately  $141,000 of cash used in investing activities partially offset by
approximately  $96,000 of cash  provided by financing  activities.  Cash used in
investing  activities  consisted of property  improvements  and replacements and
deposits to restricted escrows maintained by the mortgage lender.  Cash provided
by financing  activities consisted of advances received from an affiliate of the
Managing  General  Partner  partially  offset by  payments of  principal  on the
mortgages encumbering the Partnership's  investment properties.  The Partnership
invests its working capital reserves in interest bearing accounts.

The sufficiency of existing  liquid assets to meet future  liquidity and capital
expenditure   requirements   is  directly   related  to  the  level  of  capital
expenditures  required at the investment  properties to adequately  maintain the
physical  assets and other operating needs of the Partnership and to comply with
Federal, state and local legal and regulatory requirements. The Managing General
Partner  monitors  developments in the area of legal and regulatory  compliance.
For example,  the  Sarbanes-Oxley  Act of 2002  mandates or suggests  additional
compliance  measures  with  regard to  governance,  disclosure,  audit and other
areas.  In light of these changes,  the  Partnership  expects that it will incur
higher expenses related to compliance.  The Partnership  regularly evaluates the
capital improvement needs of the properties.  Capital  improvements  planned for
each of the Partnership's properties are detailed below.

Lakeside Apartments

During  the  three  months  ended  March 31,  2005,  the  Partnership  completed
approximately $22,000 of capital improvements at Lakeside Apartments, consisting
primarily of appliance and floor covering  replacements  and major  landscaping.
These  improvements  were  funded  from  operating  cash flow.  The  Partnership
regularly  evaluates the capital  improvement  needs of the property.  While the
Partnership  has  no  material   commitments  for  property   improvements   and
replacements,  certain routine capital expenditures are anticipated during 2005.
Such capital  expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property
as well as anticipated cash flow generated by the property.

Bexley House Apartments

During  the  three  months  ended  March 31,  2005,  the  Partnership  completed
approximately  $34,000  of  capital  improvements  at Bexley  House  Apartments,
consisting  primarily of structural  upgrades and  appliance and floor  covering
replacements.  These  improvements  were funded from  operating  cash flow.  The
Partnership  regularly  evaluates the capital improvement needs of the property.
While the Partnership has no material commitments for property  improvements and
replacements,  certain routine capital expenditures are anticipated during 2005.
Such capital  expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property
as well as anticipated cash flow generated by the property.

Covington Pointe Apartments

During  the  three  months  ended  March 31,  2005,  the  Partnership  completed
approximately  $47,000 of capital  improvements at Covington Pointe  Apartments,
consisting primarily of parking lot resurfacing and appliance and floor covering
replacements.  These  improvements  were funded from  operating  cash flow.  The
Partnership  regularly  evaluates the capital improvement needs of the property.
While the Partnership has no material commitments for property  improvements and
replacements,  certain routine capital expenditures are anticipated during 2005.
Such capital  expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property
as well as anticipated cash flow generated by the property.

Capital  expenditures will be incurred only if cash is available from operations
or from  Partnership  reserves.  To the extent  that  capital  improvements  are
completed,  the Partnership's  distributable cash flow, if any, may be adversely
affected at least in the short term.

The  Partnership's  assets are thought to be sufficient for any near-term  needs
(exclusive  of  capital   improvements)   of  the   Partnership.   The  mortgage
indebtedness    encumbering   the   Partnership's   investment   properties   of
approximately  $10,599,000  is  amortized  over  varying  periods,  with balloon
payments  of  approximately  $4,416,000  due in July 2010 for  Covington  Pointe
Apartments  and   approximately   $2,599,000  in  September  2007  for  Lakeside
Apartments.  The Managing  General Partner has the option to extend the maturity
of the mortgage  encumbering  Lakeside  Apartments for an additional five years.
The  Managing  General  Partner  will  attempt  to  refinance  and/or  sell  the
properties prior to such maturity dates. If the properties  cannot be refinanced
or sold for a sufficient amount, the Partnership may risk losing such properties
through foreclosure.

No cash distributions were made during the three months ended March 31, 2005 and
2004. Future cash  distributions will depend on the levels of net cash generated
from  operations,  and the  timing of debt  maturities,  property  sales  and/or
refinancings. The Partnership's cash available for distribution is reviewed on a
monthly basis.

In light of the significant amounts due to the Managing General Partner at March
31, 2005, it is not anticipated that the Partnership will make any distributions
in the foreseeable future.

Other

In addition to its indirect  ownership of the general  partner  interests in the
Partnership,  AIMCO and its affiliates owned 12,340.50 limited partnership units
(the "Units") in the Partnership representing 46.09% of the outstanding Units at
March 31, 2005. A number of these Units were acquired  pursuant to tender offers
made by AIMCO or its  affiliates.  It is possible  that AIMCO or its  affiliates
will acquire  additional Units in exchange for cash or a combination of cash and
units in AIMCO  Properties,  L.P., the operating  partnership  of AIMCO,  either
through  private  purchases or tender  offers.  In this regard,  on February 16,
2005, AIMCO Properties, L.P. commenced a tender offer to acquire up to 14,435.00
units for a purchase price of $60.26 per unit.  This offer expires May 31, 2005.
Pursuant to the  Partnership  Agreement,  unitholders  holding a majority of the
Units are  entitled  to take action  with  respect to a variety of matters  that
include, but are not limited to, voting on certain amendments to the Partnership
Agreement and voting to remove the Managing General Partner.  As a result of its
ownership of 46.09% of the outstanding  Units, AIMCO and its affiliates are in a
position to influence  all voting  decisions  with  respect to the  Partnership.
Although  the Managing  General  Partner  owes  fiduciary  duties to the limited
partners of the  Partnership,  the Managing  General Partner also owes fiduciary
duties to AIMCO as its sole stockholder. As a result, the duties of the Managing
General Partner, as managing general partner, to the Partnership and its limited
partners may come into conflict with the duties of the Managing  General Partner
to AIMCO as it sole stockholder.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting
principles   generally  accepted  in  the  United  States,   which  require  the
Partnership to make estimates and assumptions.  The Partnership believes that of
its significant  accounting policies,  the following may involve a higher degree
of judgment and complexity.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Investment  properties  are  recorded at cost,  less  accumulated  depreciation,
unless  considered  impaired.  If  events  or  circumstances  indicate  that the
carrying  amount of a property may be  impaired,  the  Partnership  will make an
assessment of its  recoverability  by estimating  the  undiscounted  future cash
flows,  excluding  interest  charges,  of the property.  If the carrying  amount
exceeds the aggregate  future cash flows,  the  Partnership  would  recognize an
impairment  loss to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the
property.

Real  property  investments  are  subject  to varying  degrees of risk.  Several
factors  may  adversely  affect  the  economic  performance  and  value  of  the
Partnership's investment properties.  These factors include, but are not limited
to,  changes  in the  national,  regional  and  local  economic  climate;  local
conditions,  such as an oversupply of multifamily  properties;  competition from
other available  multifamily property owners and changes in market rental rates.
Any adverse changes in these factors could cause impairment of the Partnership's
assets.

Revenue Recognition

The Partnership generally leases apartment units for twelve-month terms or less.
The Partnership will offer rental concessions during particularly slow months or
in response  to heavy  competition  from other  similar  complexes  in the area.
Rental income attributable to leases, net of any concessions, is recognized on a
straight-line  basis over the term of the lease.  The Partnership  evaluates all
accounts  receivable  from  residents and  establishes  an allowance,  after the
application of security deposits,  for accounts greater than 30 days past due on
current tenants and all receivables due from former tenants.

ITEM 3.     CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures.  The Partnership's management,  with the
participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer
of the Managing  General  Partner,  who are the equivalent of the  Partnership's
principal executive officer and principal financial officer,  respectively,  has
evaluated  the  effectiveness  of  the  Partnership's  disclosure  controls  and
procedures (as such term is defined in Rules  13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)  under the
Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) as of the end
of the period covered by this report.  Based on such  evaluation,  the principal
executive  officer  and  principal  financial  officer of the  Managing  General
Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership's principal executive officer
and principal  financial officer,  respectively,  have concluded that, as of the
end of such period,  the  Partnership's  disclosure  controls and procedures are
effective.

(b) Internal Control Over Financial  Reporting.  There have not been any changes
in the Partnership's  internal control over financial reporting (as such term is
defined in Rules  13a-15(f)  and  15d-15(f)  under the Exchange  Act) during the
fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have  materially  affected,  or
are reasonably likely to materially affect,  the Partnership's  internal control
over financial reporting.


                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In March 1998, several putative unit holders of limited partnership units of the
Partnership  commenced an action  entitled  Rosalie  Nuanes,  et al. v. Insignia
Financial Group, Inc., et al. (the "Nuanes action") in the Superior Court of the
State of  California  for the  County  of San  Mateo.  The  plaintiffs  named as
defendants,  among others,  the  Partnership,  its Managing  General Partner and
several of their  affiliated  partnerships  and corporate  entities.  The action
purported  to  assert  claims  on  behalf  of a class of  limited  partners  and
derivatively  on behalf  of a number  of  limited  partnerships  (including  the
Partnership)  that are named as nominal  defendants,  challenging,  among  other
things,  the  acquisition  of  interests  in certain  Managing  General  Partner
entities by Insignia Financial Group, Inc.  ("Insignia") and entities that were,
at one  time,  affiliates  of  Insignia;  past  tender  offers  by the  Insignia
affiliates to acquire limited partnership units;  management of the partnerships
by the  Insignia  affiliates;  and the series of  transactions  which  closed on
October 1, 1998 and February 26, 1999 whereby  Insignia and Insignia  Properties
Trust,  respectively,  were merged into AIMCO.  The plaintiffs  sought  monetary
damages and equitable relief, including judicial dissolution of the Partnership.
In addition,  during the third quarter of 2001, a complaint  captioned Heller v.
Insignia  Financial  Group (the  "Heller  action")  was filed  against  the same
defendants  that are named in the  Nuanes  action.  On or about  August 6, 2001,
plaintiffs filed a first amended  complaint.  The Heller action was brought as a
purported derivative action, and asserted claims for, among other things, breach
of fiduciary  duty,  unfair  competition,  conversion,  unjust  enrichment,  and
judicial  dissolution.  On January 28, 2002, the trial court granted  defendants
motion to strike the complaint.

On January 8, 2003,  the parties filed a  Stipulation  of Settlement in proposed
settlement of the Nuanes action and the Heller action.

On June 13, 2003, the court granted final approval of the settlement and entered
judgment in both the Nuanes and Heller actions.  On August 12, 2003, an objector
("Objector") filed an appeal (the "Appeal") seeking to vacate and/or reverse the
order approving the settlement and entering judgment thereto. On May 4, 2004 the
Objector filed a second appeal  challenging the court's use of a referee and its
order requiring Objector to pay those fees.

On March 21, 2005, the Court of Appeals issued opinions in both pending appeals.
With regard to the settlement and judgment entered thereto, the Court of Appeals
vacated  the trial  court's  order and  remanded  to the trial court for further
findings  on the basis that the "state of the record is  insufficient  to permit
meaningful  appellate  review".  With regard to the second appeal,  the Court of
Appeals  reversed the order requiring the Objector to pay referee fees. On April
26, 2005,  the Court of Appeals  lifted the stay of a pending  appeal related to
the Heller action and the trial court's order striking the  complaint.  On April
28, 2005, the Objector  filed a Petition for Review with the California  Supreme
Court in connection with the opinion vacating the order approving settlement and
remanding for further findings.  The Managing General Partner and its affiliates
are  currently  scheduled  to file an answer to  Objector's  petition on May 18,
2005.

The  Managing  General  Partner  does  not  anticipate  that  any  costs  to the
Partnership, whether legal or settlement costs, associated with these cases will
be material to the Partnership's overall operations.

As previously  disclosed AIMCO Properties L.P. and NHP Management Company,  both
affiliates of the Managing General Partner, are defendants in a lawsuit alleging
that they willfully violated the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA") by failing to
pay  maintenance  workers  overtime  for all hours worked in excess of forty per
week.  The  complaint  attempts to bring a collective  action under the FLSA and
seeks to certify state subclasses in California,  Maryland,  and the District of
Columbia.  Specifically,  the plaintiffs  contend that AIMCO Properties L.P. and
NHP Management  Company failed to compensate  maintenance  workers for time that
they were required to be "on-call."  Additionally,  the complaint  alleges AIMCO
Properties  L.P. and NHP  Management  Company  failed to comply with the FLSA in
compensating  maintenance  workers for time that they worked in  responding to a
call  while  "on-call."  The  defendants  have  filed an answer  to the  amended
complaint  denying the substantive  allegations.  Oral argument  relating to the
certification of the collective  action is scheduled for May 12, 2005.  Although
the outcome of any  litigation is  uncertain,  AIMCO  Properties,  L.P. does not
believe that the ultimate  outcome  will have a material  adverse  effect on its
consolidated  financial  condition  or results  of  operations.  Similarly,  the
Managing  General Partner does not believe that the ultimate outcome will have a
material adverse effect on the Partnership's consolidated financial condition or
results of operations.
