For the period from January 1, 1996, to August 31, 1997, the Partnership insured
its properties under a master policy through an agency and insurer unaffiliated
with the General Partner.  An affiliate of the General Partner acquired, in the
acquisition of a business, certain financial obligations from an insurance
agency which was later acquired by the agent who placed the master policy.  The
agent assumed the financial obligations to the affiliate of the General Partner
who received payment on these obligations from the agent.  The amount of the
Partnership's insurance premiums that accrued to the benefit of the affiliate of
the General Partner by virtue of the agent's obligations was not significant.

Angeles Mortgage Investment Trust ("AMIT"),  a real estate investment trust, has
provided unsecured loans totaling approximately $2,993,000 at September 30,
1997. Concurrent with the sale of Cardinal Woods Apartments on August 15, 1997,
approximately $588,000, its previously outstanding balance owed to AMIT, was
paid. Total interest expense on this financing was $313,000 and $301,000 for the
nine month periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  Accrued
interest was approximately $509,000 at September 30, 1997.  Two of these loans
totaling $2,500,000 were previously secured by two investment properties;
however, the second mortgages were released in 1992 as part of the terms and
conditions for refinancing the first mortgages. Multifamily riders were executed
between the Partnership and the first mortgage holders for Carriage APX and
Vista APX, stating that any subordinated debt must be non-foreclosable and have
maturity dates not less than 2 years beyond the maturity of the refinanced first
mortgages; the agreement also provided for interest to be paid based on
available cash flow.  In June 1996, but effective March 31, 1996, these loans
were modified, adding non-default accrued interest payable to the loan balances
and waiving accrued, but unpaid, default interest and late charges. The modified
$1,404,000 Carriage APX note matures in September 2000 and provides for interest
at 12% on the original $1,200,000 note amount.  The modified $1,530,000 Vista
APX note matures in September 2002 and provides for interest at 12.5% on the
original $1,300,000 note amount.  The debt restructuring was accounted for as a
modification of terms.  The total future cash payments under the restructured
loan exceed the carrying value of the loan as of the date of restructure.
Consequently, interest on the restructured debt is being recorded at an
effective rate of 10.8% for Vista Hills and 10.2% for Carriage Hills, which is
the rate required to equate the present value of the total future cash payments
under the new terms with the carrying amount of the loan at the date of
restructure.  As part of the modifications, AMIT was granted a first priority
lien on the Partnership's 99% limited partnership interests in the Vista APX and
Carriage APX lower-tier partnerships which own Vista Hills Apartments and
Carriage Hills Apartments, respectively.

MAE GP Corporation ("MAE GP"), an affiliate of the General Partner, owns
1,675,113 Class B Shares of AMIT.  The terms of the Class B shares provide that
they are convertible in whole or in part, into Class A Shares on the basis of 1
Class A Share for every 49 Class B Shares (however, in connection with the
settlement agreement described in the following paragraph, MAE GP has agreed not
to convert the Class B shares so long at AMIT's option is outstanding).  These
Class B Shares entitle MAE GP to receive 1% of the distributions of net cash
distributed by AMIT (however, in connection with the settlement agreement
described in the following paragraph, MAE GP has agreed to waive its right to
receive dividends and distributions so long as AMIT's option is outstanding).
These Class B Shares also entitle MAE GP to vote on the same basis as Class A
Shares, providing MAE GP with approximately 39% of the total voting power of
AMIT (unless and until converted to Class A Shares, in which case the percentage
of the vote controlled represented by the shares held by MAE GP would
approximate 1.3% of the vote). Between the date of acquisition of these shares
(November 24, 1992) and March 31, 1995, MAE GP declined to vote these shares.
Since that date, MAE GP voted its shares at the 1995 and 1996 annual meetings in
connection with the election of trustees and other matters.  MAE GP has not
exerted and continues to decline to exert any management control over or
participate in the management of AMIT.  Subject to the terms of the proxy
described below, MAE GP may choose to vote these shares as it deems appropriate
in the future. In addition, Liquidity Assistance L.L.C., an affiliate of the
General Partner and an affiliate of Insignia Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia"),
which provides property management and partnership administration services to
the Partnership, owns 96,800 Class A Shares of AMIT at September 30, 1997. These
Class A Shares represent approximately 2.2% of the total voting power of AMIT.

As part of a settlement of certain disputes with AMIT, MAE GP granted to AMIT an
option to acquire the Class B Shares owned by it.  This option can be exercised
at the end of 10 years or when all loans made by AMIT to partnerships affiliated
with MAE GP as of November 9, 1994,(which is the date of execution of a
definitive Settlement Agreement), have been paid in full, but in no event prior
to November 9, 1997.  In connection with such settlement, AMIT delivered to MAE
GP cash in the sum of $250,000 at closing (which occurred April 14, 1995), as
payment for the option. If and when the option is exercised, AMIT will be
required to remit to MAE GP an additional $94,000.

Simultaneously with the execution of the option and as part of the settlement,
MAE GP executed an irrevocable proxy in favor of AMIT, the result of which is
MAE GP is permitted to vote the Class B Shares on all matters except those
involving transactions between AMIT and MAE GP affiliated borrowers or the
election of any MAE GP affiliate as an officer or trustee of AMIT.  On those
matters, MAE GP is obligated to deliver to the AMIT trustees, in their capacity
as trustees of AMIT, proxies with regard to the Class B Shares instructing such
trustees to vote said Class B Shares in accordance with the vote of the majority
of the Class A Shares voting to be determined without consideration of the votes
of "Excess Class A Shares" (as defined in Section 6.13 of the Declaration of
Trust of AMIT).

On April 3, 1997, Insignia and AMIT entered into a non-binding agreement in
principle contemplating, among other things, a business combination of AMIT and
Insignia Properties Trust, an entity owned 98% by Insignia and its affiliates
("IPT").  On July 18, 1997, IPT, Insignia and MAE GP entered into a definitive
merger agreement pursuant to which (subject to shareholder approval and certain
other conditions, including the receipt by AMIT of a fairness opinion from its
investment bankers) AMIT would be merged with and into IPT, with each Class A
Share and Class B Share being converted into 1.625 and 0.0332 common shares of
IPT, respectively.  The foregoing exchange ratios are subject to adjustment to
account for dividends paid by AMIT from January 1, 1997 and dividends paid by
IPT from February 1, 1997.  It is anticipated that Insignia (and its affiliates)
and MAE GP (and its affiliates) would own approximately 53.1% and 2.3%,
respectively, of post-merger IPT when this transaction is consummated.

In November 1992, Angeles Acceptance Pool, L.P. ("AAP"), a Delaware limited
partnership, was organized to acquire and hold the obligations evidencing the
working capital loans previously provided to the Partnership by Angeles Capital
Investments, Inc. ("ACII").  Angeles Corporation ("Angeles") is the 99% limited
partner of AAP and Angeles Acceptance Directives, Inc.("AAD"), an affiliate of
the General Partner, was, until April 14, 1995, the 1% general partner of AAP.
On April 14, 1995, as part of a settlement of claims between affiliates of the
General Partner and Angeles, AAD resigned as general partner of AAP and
simultaneously received a 1/2% limited partner interest in AAP.  An affiliate of
Angeles now serves as the general partner of AAP.

These working capital loans funded the Partnership's operating deficits in prior
years. Total indebtedness, which is included as a note payable for Vista APX,
was $150,000 at September 30, 1997, with monthly interest accruing at prime plus
two percent.  As a result of the sale of Cardinal Woods Apartments on August 15,
1997, $501,000 of the then outstanding debt to AAP was repaid. Principal is to
be paid the earlier of i) the availability of funds, ii) the sale of one or more
properties owned by the Partnership, or iii) November 25, 1997.  Upon maturity,
Vista AP X will not have the means with which to satisfy the maturing debt
obligation. Total interest expense for these loans was $39,000 and $43,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

NOTE C - DISPOSITION OF RENTAL PROPERTY

On August 15, 1997, Cardinal Woods Apartments located in Cary, North Carolina,
was sold to an unaffiliated party, for $7,100,000.  The Partnership used a
portion of the proceeds from the sale of the property to pay off the debt
encumbering the property.  The net proceeds will be used to establish additional
cash reserves for the Partnership.  After closing expenses of approximately
$113,000, the net proceeds received by the Partnership were approximately
$1,994,000.  For financial statement purposes, the sale resulted in a gain of
approximately $4,831,000.  The Partnership also recorded an
extraordinary loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $539,000, as
a result of the payment of prepayment penalties and the write off of the
remaining unamortized loan costs and debt discount.

The following unaudited pro forma information reflects the operations of the
Partnership for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, as if
Cardinal Woods Apartments had been sold January 1, 1996.

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

The Partnership's remaining investment properties consist of three apartment
complexes.  The following table sets forth the average occupancy of the
properties for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996:


                                                     Average
                                                    Occupancy
Property                                         1997        1996

Greentree Apartments
  Mobile, Alabama                                 99%        97%

Carriage Hills Apartments
  East Lansing, Michigan                          95%        94%

Vista Hills Apartments (1)
  El Paso, Texas                                  75%        84%


(1)The General Partner attributes the low occupancy at Vista Hills Apartments
   to a high unemployment rate in the El Paso, Texas area with residents
   looking for short-term leasing arrangements.  As a result, the property has
   increased advertising and offered rent concessions to increase occupancy.

On August 15, 1997, Cardinal Woods Apartments located in Cary, North Carolina,
was sold to an unaffiliated party, for $7,100,000.  The Partnership used a
portion of the proceeds from the sale of the property to pay off the debt
encumbering the property.  The net proceeds will be used to establish additional
cash reserves for the Partnership.  After closing expenses of approximately
$113,000, the net proceeds received by the Partnership were approximately
$1,994,000.  For financial statement purposes, the sale resulted in a gain of
approximately $4,831,000.  The Partnership also recorded an extraordinary loss
on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $539,000, as a result of the
payment of prepayment penalties and the write off of the remaining unamortized
loan costs and debt discount.

The Partnership realized  net income of approximately $3,734,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 compared to a net loss of approximately $609,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996.  The Partnership's net income for
the three months ended September 30, 1997 was approximately $4,095,000 compared
to a net loss of approximately $247,000 for the three months ended September 30,
1996.  The increase in net income for the three and nine months ended September
30, 1997, as compared to the corresponding periods of 1996 is primarily
attributable to the gain recognized on the sale of Cardinal Woods Apartments on
August 15, 1997, as discussed above, offset partially by the loss on early
extinguishment of debt.  The net loss before the gain on sale of investment
property and extraordinary item decreased for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1997 due to a decrease in total expenses partially offset by a
decrease in rental income. Rental income decreased primarily due to the sale of
Cardinal Woods along with a decrease in occupancy at Vista Hills, despite
increases in rental rates and average occupancy at Greentree and Carriage Hills.
Total expenses decreased also due to the sale of Cardinal Woods Apartments along
with an overall decrease in maintenance expense. Included in maintenance expense
for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 is approximately $46,000 for major
repairs and renovations comprised primarily of tennis court repairs, exterior
building repairs, parking lot repairs and landscaping.  For the nine months
ended September 30, 1996, approximately $124,000 of major repairs and
renovations comprised primarily of exterior building repairs and landscaping was
included in maintenance expense. In addition, general and administrative
expenses decreased due to a decrease in professional fees and expense
reimbursements.

As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the 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 expense.  As part of
this plan, the 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, due to changing market
conditions, which can result in the use of rental concessions and rental
reductions to offset softening market conditions, there is no guarantee that the
General Partner will be able to sustain such a plan.

At September 30, 1997 the Partnership held unrestricted cash and cash
equivalents of approximately $1,284,000 compared to approximately $420,000 at
September 30, 1996.  Net cash used in operating activities increased primarily
due to the payment of a $581,000 payable to an affiliate for reimbursement of
services, which had been accruing for several years.  Net cash provided by
investing activities increased primarily due to the proceeds received from the
sale of Cardinal Wood Apartments during the nine months ended September 30,
1997.  Net cash used in financing activities increased due to the repayment of
notes payable and prepayment penalties incurred as a result of the sale of
Cardinal Woods.

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 property to adequately maintain the physical assets
and other operating needs of the Partnership.  In June 1996, but effective March
31, 1996, two of the Partnership's AMIT notes were modified.  Previously accrued
interest of $493,000 was added to the principal balance of existing debt. The
debt restructuring was accounted for as a modification of terms.  The total
future cash payments under the restructured loan exceed the carrying value of
the loan as of the date of restructure. Consequently, interest on the
restructured debt is being recorded at an effective rate of 10.8% for Vista
Hills and 10.2% for Carriage Hills, which is the rate required to equate the
present value of the total future cash payments under the new terms with the
carrying amount of the loan at the date of restructure.  As a result of the sale
of Cardinal Woods Apartments, approximately $588,000 of the AMIT debt was paid
off.  The outstanding indebtedness of $13,713,000 (net of discount) has maturity
dates ranging from November 1997 to October 2003, at which time approximately
$13,271,000 of balloon payments are due.  As a result of the sale of Cardinal
Woods Apartments, approximately $501,000 of working capital loans payable to
Angeles Acceptance Pool, L.P. ("AAP") were paid off. The remaining debt to AAP
of $150,000, which is due from Vista AP X, matures in November 1997. Upon
maturity, Vista AP X will not have the means with which to satisfy the maturing
debt obligation.  The note payable secured by Carriage Hills matures September
1, 1998.  Currently, the General Partner is attempting to refinance this debt.
Net cash proceeds from the sale of Cardinal Woods will be used to establish
additional cash reserves for the Partnership.  Future cash distributions will
depend on the levels of net cash generated from operations, refinancings,
property sales and the availability of cash reserves.  During the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, no cash distributions were paid to the
Limited Partners.


                            PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM. 1.      LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On January 20, 1995 an employee at Vista Hills Apartments ("Plaintiff")
allegedly sustained personal injuries during the ordinary course of business.
The Plaintiff alleges that his employment was thereafter terminated in
retaliation for his having filed a workers compensation claim.  Plaintiff seeks
compensatory and punitive damages.  The General Partner cannot predict the
outcome of this proceeding or the range of settlement for the Plaintiff, if
settled in favor of Plaintiff; however, the General Partner believes that this
claim is without merit and intends to vigorously defend it.

The Partnership is unaware of any other pending or outstanding litigation that
is not of a routine nature.  The General Partner believes that all such
other pending or outstanding litigation will be resolved without a material
adverse effect upon the business, financial condition or operations of the
Partnership.
