Notes to Financial Statements

(unaudited)

Readers of this Quarterly Report should refer to the Partnership's audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000, which are included in the Partnership's 2000 Annual Report, as certain footnote disclosures which would duplicate those contained in such audited financial statements have been omitted from this Report.



(1)  Organization and Basis of Accounting

The Registrant, Inland Land Appreciation Fund, L.P. (the "Partnership"), was formed in October 1987, pursuant to the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act, to invest in undeveloped land on an all-cash basis and realize appreciation of such land upon resale.  On October 12, 1988, the Partnership commenced an Offering of 10,000 (subject to increase to 30,000) Limited Partnership Units ("Units") pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-11 under the Securities Act of 1933.  Inland Real Estate Investment Corporation is the General Partner.  The Offering terminated on October 6, 1989, with total sales of 30,000 Units, at $1,000 per Unit, not including the General Partner or the Initial Limited Partner.  All of the holders of these Units have been admitted to this Partnership.  The Limited Partners of the Partnership share in their portion of benefits of ownership of the Partnership's real property investments according to the number of Units held.  As of September 30, 2001, the Partnership has repurchased a total of 407.75 Units for $359,484 from various Limited Partners through the Unit Repurchase Program.  Under this program Limited Partners may under certain circumstances have their Units repurchased for an amount equal to their Invested Capital.

Except as described in footnote (b) to Note 3 of these notes, the Partnership uses the area method of allocation, which approximates the relative sales method of allocation, whereby a per acre price is used as the standard allocation method for land purchases and sales.  The total cost of the parcel is divided by the total number of acres to arrive at a per acre price.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

In the opinion of management, the financial statements contain all the adjustments necessary, which are of a normal recurring nature, to present fairly the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented herein.  Results of interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year.

(3) Investments in Land and Improvements (continued)

1. Included in the purchase agreement of Parcel 5 was a condition that required the Partnership to buy an option to purchase an additional 243 acres immediately to the west of this parcel.  The sale transaction relates to the sale of this option.
2. The Partnership purchased from two independent third parties, two sets of three contiguous parcels of land (Parcels 6, 7 and 8; and Parcels 9, 10 and 11).  The General Partner believes that the total value of this land will be maximized if it is treated and marketed to buyers as six separate parcels and closed the transactions as six separate purchases to facilitate this.  Parcels 6, 7 and 8 will be treated as one parcel and Parcels 9, 10 and 11 will be treated as one parcel for purposes of computing Parcel Capital (as defined) and distributions to the Partners.
3. Reconciliation of investments in land and improvements owned:

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Certain statements in this  "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Federal Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the Partnership's actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.  These factors include, among other things, federal, state or local regulations; adverse changes in general economic or local conditions; inability of borrower to meet financial obligations; uninsured losses; and potential conflicts of interest between the Partnership and its Affiliates, including the General Partner.



Liquidity and Capital Resources

On October 12, 1988, the Partnership commenced an Offering of 10,000 (subject to increase to 30,000) Limited Partnership Units pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-11 under the Securities Act of 1933.  On October 6, 1989, the Offering terminated with a total of 30,000 Units sold to the public at $1,000 per Unit resulting in  $30,000,000 in gross offering proceeds, which does not include the Initial Limited Partner and the General Partner.  All of the holders of these Units have been admitted to the Partnership.  The Limited Partners of the Partnership share in their portion of benefits of ownership of the Partnership's real property investments according to the number of Units held.

The Partnership used $25,187,069 of gross offering proceeds to purchase on an all-cash basis twenty-five parcels of undeveloped land and an option to purchase undeveloped land.  These investments include the payment of the purchase price, acquisition fees and acquisition costs of such properties.  Fourteen of the parcels were purchased during 1989 and eleven during 1990.  As of September 30, 2001, the Partnership has had multiple sales transactions, through which it has disposed of approximately 1,075 acres of the approximately 3,102 acres originally owned.  As of September 30, 2001, cumulative distributions to the Limited Partners have totaled $13,573,623 (which represents a return of Invested Capital, as defined in the Partnership Agreement) and $153,743 to the General Partner.  Through September 30, 2001, the Partnership has used $13,867,109 of working capital reserve for rezoning and other activities.  Such amounts have been capitalized and are included in investments in land.

The Partnership's capital needs and resources will vary depending upon a number of factors, including the extent to which the Partnership conducts rezoning and other activities relating to utility access, the installation of roads, subdivision and/or annexation of land to a municipality, changes in real estate taxes affecting the Partnership's land, and the amount of revenue received from leasing.  As of September 30, 2001, the Partnership owns, in whole or in part, sixteen of its twenty-five original parcels, the majority of which are leased to local farmers and are generating sufficient cash flow from farm leases to cover property taxes and insurance.

At September 30, 2001, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of $913,736, of which approximately $43,000 is reserved for the repurchase of Units through the Unit Repurchase Program. The remaining amount is available to be used for Partnership expenses and liabilities, cash distributions to partners and other activities with respect to some or all of its land parcels. The Partnership has increased its parcel sales effort in anticipation of rising land values.



The Partnership plans to enhance the value of its land through pre-development activities such as rezoning annexation and land planning.  The Partnership has already been successful in, or is in the process of pre-development activity on a majority of the Partnership's land investments.  Parcels 4, 6 and 7 have completed two phases of improvements for an industrial park and sites are being marketed. A third phase is slated for completion in late 2001.  Parcel 16 has been zoned with development and sales marketing underway. Zoning discussions have begun on Parcel 12.

Results of Operations

As of September 30, 2001, the Partnership owned sixteen parcels of land consisting of approximately 2,027 acres.  Of the 2,027 acres owned, approximately 1,855 acres are tillable, leased to local farmers and generate sufficient cash flow to cover property taxes, insurance and other miscellaneous expenses.

Income from the sale of investments in land and improvements and the cost of land sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 is the result of the sale of approximately 2.3 acres of Parcel 4 and the sale of Parcel 13.  Income from the sale of investment in land and improvements and the cost of land sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 is the result of the sale of approximately 40 acres of Parcel 2.

Marketing expenses to Affiliates and non-affiliates increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2000, due to an increase in marketing, advertising and travel expenses relating to marketing the land portfolio to prospective purchasers.
