                           (Unaudited)

(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.

     operating tenants.  The Partnership's operations are managed
     by  AEI  Fund  Management XVIII, Inc.  (AFM),  the  Managing
     General Partner.  Robert P. Johnson, the President and  sole
     shareholder of AFM, serves as the Individual General Partner
     and  an  affiliate of AFM, AEI Fund Management, Inc.  (AEI),
     performs the administrative and operating functions for  the
     Partnership.

     The   terms   of  the  Partnership  offering  call   for   a
     subscription  price of $1,000 per Limited Partnership  Unit,
     payable   on  acceptance  of  the  offer.   The  Partnership
     commenced  operations  on February  15,  1989  when  minimum
     subscriptions    of   1,500   Limited   Partnership    Units
     ($1,500,000)   were   accepted.   The  offering   terminated

     The Partnership received subscriptions for 22,783.05 Limited
     Partnership Units ($22,783,050).

     Under  the  terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement,  the

     $22,783,050,  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

     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 6%
     of their Adjusted Capital Contribution per annum, cumulative
     but not compounded, to the extent not previously distributed
     from  Net  Cash Flow; (ii) next, 99% to the Limited Partners
     and  1%  to the General Partners until the Limited  Partners
     receive  an  amount equal to 14% of their  Adjusted  Capital
     Contribution  per annum, cumulative but not  compounded,  to
     the  extent not previously distributed; (iii) next,  to  the
     General  Partners  until  cumulative  distributions  to  the
     General  Partners under Items (ii) and (iii)  equal  15%  of
     cumulative  distributions to all Partners under  Items  (ii)
     and (iii).  Any remaining balance will be distributed 85% to
     the  Limited  Partners  and  15% 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 90%  to
     the  Limited  Partners and 10% to the General Partners.   In
     the  event  no Net Cash Flow is distributed to  the  Limited
     Partners,  90%  of each item of income, gain or  credit  for
     each  respective  year  shall be allocated  to  the  Limited
     Partners,  and 10% of each such item shall be  allocated  to
     the  General Partners.  Net losses from operations  will  be
     allocated 98% to the Limited Partners and 2% 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 14% of their Adjusted Capital Contributions
     per  annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not
     previously  allocated; (iii) third, to the General  Partners
     until  cumulative allocations to the General Partners  equal
     15%  of cumulative allocations.  Any remaining balance  will
     be  allocated  85% to the Limited Partners and  15%  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)  Investments in Real Estate -

     In  October,  1999,  the  Partnership  abandoned  a  Rally's
     property  in order to avoid ongoing expenses.  In the  third
     quarter  of  1999, the Partnership recorded  a  real  estate
     impairment of $125,531, which is equal to the net book value
     of  the  abandoned property.  Additionally,  in  the  fourth
     quarter  of  1999, the Partnership recorded  a  real  estate
     impairment of $124,188, which is equal to the net book value
     of   the  remaining  Rally's,  due  to  the  uncertainty  of
     retaining  a  tenant in the property.  The  abandonment  and
     impairment  of  the two properties did not have  a  material
     effect   on   the  Partnership's  cash  flow  or   financial
     statements.

     In  December, 1998, Gulf Coast Restaurants, Inc. (GCR),  the
     lessee  of  the Applebee's restaurant in Slidell, Louisiana,
     filed  for  reorganization.  GCR is continuing to  make  the
     lease  payments to the Partnership under the supervision  of
     the  bankruptcy  court while they develop  a  reorganization
     plan.   The  Partnership has agreed, as part of  a  proposed
     reorganization plan, to reduce the amounts owed  by  GCR  by
     $3,530 to $3,570.  The proposed reorganization plan provides
     for  the  Lease to be assumed by GCR and assigned to another
     operator  who will purchase the Partnership's share  of  the
     property for approximately $351,000.

     On August 28, 1998, the Partnership purchased a 38% interest
     in  a parcel of land in Centerville, Ohio for $703,376.  The
     land is leased to Americana Dining Corporation (ADC) under a
     Lease  Agreement with a primary term of 20 years and  annual
     rental  payments of $49,236.  Effective December  25,  1998,
     the  annual  rent was increased to $73,854.   Simultaneously
     with  the purchase of the land, the Partnership entered into
     a   Development   Financing  Agreement   under   which   the
     Partnership  will advance funds to ADC for the  construction
     of  a  Champps Americana restaurant on the site.  Initially,
     the  Partnership charged interest on the advances at a  rate
     of  7%.  Effective December 25, 1998, the interest rate  was
     increased  to  10.5%.   On  January  27,  1999,  after   the
     development  was completed, the Lease Agreement was  amended
     to   require  annual  rental  payments  of  $154,075.    The
     Partnership's   share  of  the  total   acquisition   costs,
     including  the  cost  of  the land,  were  $1,502,252.   The
     remaining  interests in the property are owned by  AEI  Real
     Estate  Fund XVII Limited Partnership, AEI Income  &  Growth
     Fund  XXI  Limited Partnership and AEI Income & Growth  Fund
     XXII Limited Partnership, affiliates of the Partnership.

(3)  Investments in Real Estate - (Continued)

     On  June  30, 2000, the Partnership purchased a 24% interest
     in  a  parcel  of land in Alpharetta, Georgia for  $385,920.
     The  land  is  leased to Razzoo's, Inc. (RI) under  a  Lease
     Agreement with a primary term of 15 years and annual  rental
     payments  of  $32,803.  Simultaneously with the purchase  of
     the   land,  the  Partnership  entered  into  a  Development
     Financing Agreement under which the Partnership will advance
     funds to RI for the construction of a Razzoo's restaurant on
     the  site.   Through  June  30, 2000,  the  Partnership  had
     advanced  $19,661 for the construction of the  property  and
     was  charging  interest on the advances at a rate  of  8.5%.
     The   Partnership's  share  of  the  total  purchase  price,
     including  the  cost  of  the land,  will  be  approximately
     $919,200.   After  the construction is complete,  the  Lease
     Agreement will be amended to require annual rental  payments
     of  approximately $89,600.  The remaining interests  in  the
     property are owned by AEI Net Lease Income & Growth Fund XIX
     Limited Partnership, AEI Income & Growth Fund 23 LLC and AEI
     Private  Net  Lease  Millennium  Fund  Limited  Partnership,
     affiliates of the Partnership.

     During  1999,  the  Partnership sold  its  interest  in  the
     HomeTown Buffet restaurant in three separate transactions to
     unrelated third parties.  The Partnership received total net
     sale proceeds of $423,600 which resulted in a total net gain
     of   $146,588.   The  total  cost  and  related  accumulated
     depreciation of the interests sold was $303,733 and $26,721,
     respectively.

     In April, 2000, the Partnership entered into an Agreement to
     sell  the Pasta Fair restaurant in Belleview, Florida to  an
     affiliate  of the lessee.  On May 10, 2000, the sale  closed
     with the Partnership receiving net sale proceeds of $730,550
     which  resulted in a net gain of $26,670.  At  the  time  of
     sale,  the  cost  and related accumulated  depreciation  was
     $932,862 and $228,982, respectively.

(4)  Payable to AEI Fund Management -

     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.


ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Results of Operations

        For  the  six  months ended June 30, 2000 and  1999,  the
Partnership  recognized rental income of $948,560  and  $954,541,
respectively.   During the same periods, the  Partnership  earned
investment income of $22,038 and $15,707, respectively.  In 2000,
rental income decreased mainly as a result of the property  sales
discussed  below.  This decrease in rental income was  offset  by
additional rent received from one property acquisition  in  1999,
rent  increases on thirteen properties and additional  investment
income earned on the net proceeds from the property sales.

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

        In  October,  1999, the Partnership abandoned  a  Rally's
property  in  order  to  avoid ongoing expenses.   In  the  third
quarter   of  1999,  the  Partnership  recorded  a  real   estate
impairment of $125,531, which is equal to the net book  value  of
the  abandoned property.  Additionally, in the fourth quarter  of
1999,  the  Partnership  recorded a  real  estate  impairment  of
$124,188,  which is equal to the net book value of the  remaining
Rally's,  due  to the uncertainty of retaining a  tenant  in  the
property.   The abandonment and impairment of the two  properties
did not have a material effect on the Partnership's cash flow  or
financial statements.

       In December, 1998, Gulf Coast Restaurants, Inc. (GCR), the
lessee of the Applebee's restaurant in Slidell, Louisiana,  filed
for reorganization.  GCR is continuing to make the lease payments
to  the Partnership under the supervision of the bankruptcy court
while  they  develop a reorganization plan.  The Partnership  has
agreed, as part of a proposed reorganization plan, to reduce  the
amounts   owed  by  GCR  by  $3,530  to  $3,570.   The   proposed
reorganization plan provides for the Lease to be assumed  by  GCR
and   assigned   to  another  operator  who  will  purchase   the
Partnership's share of the property for approximately $351,000.

        During  the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,  the
Partnership   paid   Partnership   administration   expenses   to
affiliated parties of $127,837 and $126,814, 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  $15,083 and $22,742, respectively.   These  expenses
represent  direct payments to third parties for legal and  filing
fees,  direct administrative costs, outside audit and  accounting
costs, taxes, insurance and other property costs.

        As  of  June 30, 2000, the Partnership's annualized  cash
distribution  rate  was  7.0%,  based  on  the  Adjusted  Capital
Contribution.   Distributions of Net Cash  Flow  to  the  General
Partners were subordinated to the Limited Partners as required in
the Partnership Agreement.  As a result, 99% of distributions and
income  were allocated to Limited Partners and 1% to the  General
Partners.

        Inflation  has  had  a  minimal  effect  on  income  from
operations.   It is expected that increases in sales  volumes  of
the  tenants due to inflation and real sales growth, will  result
in  an  increase  in rental income over the term of  the  Leases.
Inflation  also  may  cause  the  Partnership's  real  estate  to
appreciate in value.  However, inflation and changing prices  may
also  have  an  adverse impact on the operating  margins  of  the
properties' tenants which could impair their ability to pay  rent
and subsequently reduce the Partnership's Net Cash Flow available
for distributions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         During   the  six  months  ended  June  30,  2000,   the
Partnership's  cash  balances increased $316,702  mainly  as  the
result  of  cash generated from the sale of property,  which  was
partially offset by cash used to purchase an additional property.
Net cash provided by operating activities increased from $925,800
in 1999 to $930,597 in 2000.


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

        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 six months ended  June
30,  2000 and 1999, the Partnership generated cash flow from  the
sale  of  real  estate  of  $730,550 and $423,600,  respectively.
During  the  same periods, the Partnership expended $390,944  and
$337,666,  respectively, to invest in real properties  (inclusive
of  acquisition  expenses)  as  the Partnership  reinvested  cash
generated from property sales.

        On  August  28,  1998, the Partnership  purchased  a  38%
interest  in a parcel of land in Centerville, Ohio for  $703,376.
The land is leased to Americana Dining Corporation (ADC) under  a
Lease Agreement with a primary term of 20 years and annual rental
payments  of  $49,236.  Effective December 25, 1998,  the  annual
rent  was increased to $73,854.  Simultaneously with the purchase
of the land, the Partnership entered into a Development Financing
Agreement under which the Partnership will advance funds  to  ADC
for  the  construction of a Champps Americana restaurant  on  the
site.   Initially,  the  Partnership  charged  interest  on   the
advances  at  a  rate of 7%.  Effective December  25,  1998,  the
interest rate was increased to 10.5%.  On January 27, 1999, after
the development was completed, the Lease Agreement was amended to
require  annual  rental payments of $154,075.  The  Partnership's
share  of the total acquisition costs, including the cost of  the
land,  were $1,502,252.  The remaining interests in the  property
are  owned by AEI Real Estate Fund XVII Limited Partnership,  AEI
Income  &  Growth Fund XXI Limited Partnership and AEI  Income  &
Growth   Fund  XXII  Limited  Partnership,  affiliates   of   the
Partnership.

       On June 30, 2000, the Partnership purchased a 24% interest
in  a  parcel  of land in Alpharetta, Georgia for $385,920.   The
land  is  leased  to Razzoo's, Inc. (RI) under a Lease  Agreement
with  a  primary term of 15 years and annual rental  payments  of
$32,803.   Simultaneously  with the purchase  of  the  land,  the
Partnership entered into a Development Financing Agreement  under
which   the  Partnership  will  advance  funds  to  RI  for   the
construction of a Razzoo's restaurant on the site.  Through  June
30,   2000,  the  Partnership  had  advanced  $19,661   for   the
construction  of  the property and was charging interest  on  the
advances at a rate of 8.5%.  The Partnership's share of the total
purchase  price,  including  the  cost  of  the  land,  will   be
approximately $919,200.  After the construction is complete,  the
Lease Agreement will be amended to require annual rental payments
of   approximately  $89,600.   The  remaining  interests  in  the
property  are  owned by AEI Net Lease Income &  Growth  Fund  XIX
Limited  Partnership, AEI Income and Growth Fund 23 LLC  and  AEI
Private Net Lease Millennium Fund Limited Partnership, affiliates
of the Partnership.

        During  1999,  the Partnership sold its interest  in  the
HomeTown  Buffet  restaurant in three  separate  transactions  to
unrelated third parties.  The Partnership received total net sale
proceeds  of  $423,600 which resulted in  a  total  net  gain  of
$146,588.  The total cost and related accumulated depreciation of
the interests sold was $303,733 and $26,721, respectively.

        In April, 2000, the Partnership entered into an Agreement
to  sell  the Pasta Fair restaurant in Belleview, Florida  to  an
affiliate  of the lessee.  On May 10, 2000, the sale closed  with
the  Partnership  receiving net sale proceeds of  $730,550  which
resulted in a net gain of $26,670.  At the time of sale, the cost
and  related accumulated depreciation was $932,862 and  $228,982,
respectively.


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

       The Partnership's primary use of cash flow 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 on a quarterly basis.  Effective
January   1,  2000,  the  Partnership's  distribution  rate   was
increased  from  6.5% to 7.0%.  As a result,  distributions  were
higher during the first six months of 2000, when compared to  the
same period in 1999.

        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 is not obligated  to
purchase  in  any  year  more than 5%  of  the  number  of  Units
outstanding at the beginning of the 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.

        On  April  1, 2000, sixteen Limited Partners  redeemed  a
total of 249.25 Partnership Units for $217,397 in accordance with
the Partnership Agreement.  On July 1, 2000, six Limited Partners
redeemed  a  total  of 59.0 Partnership Units for  $51,912.   The
Partnership  acquired  these  Units  using  Net  Cash  Flow  from
operations.   In  prior  years, a total of 141  Limited  Partners
redeemed  2,157.32 Partnership Units for $1,716,908 in accordance
with  the  Partnership Agreement.  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.
