Item 1. Business

The Registrant, Inland's  Monthly  Income  Fund,  L.P. (the "Partnership"), was
formed on March  26,  1987  pursuant  to  the  Delaware Revised Uniform Limited
Partnership Act, to  invest  in  improved  residential,  retail, industrial and
other  income  producing  properties.    On  August  3,  1987,  the Partnership
commenced an Offering of 50,000 (subject  to  an increase up to 60,000) Limited
Partnership Units ("Units") pursuant to  a  Registration Statement on Form S-11
under the Securities Act of  1933.  The  Offering terminated on August 3, 1988,
with total sales of 59,999 Units at  $500 per Unit, resulting in gross offering
proceeds of $29,999,500, not  including  the  General Partner's contribution of
$500. All of the  holders  of  these  Units  were  admitted to the Partnership.
Inland  Real  Estate  Investment  Corporation   is  the  General  Partner.  The
Partnership acquired seven properties utilizing $25,831,542 of capital proceeds
collected. The Limited Partners  of  the  Partnership  share in the benefits of
ownership of the Partnership's real  property  investments in proportion to the
number of Units held. The  Partnership  repurchased 713 Units for $356,676 from
various Limited Partners  through  the  Unit  Repurchase  Program. There are no
funds remaining for the repurchase of Units through this program.

The Partnership is engaged  in  the  business  of  real estate investment which
management considers to  be  a  single  operating  segment.   A presentation of
information about operating segments would  not be material to an understanding
of the Partnership's business taken as a whole.

The  Partnership  acquired  fee  ownership   of  the  following  real  property
investments:

(a) Reference is made to Note 4 of the Notes to Financial Statements (Item 8 of
    this Annual Report) for  additional  descriptions of the Partnership's real
    property investments.

(b) Reference is made to Notes  4  and  8  of the Notes to Financial Statements
    (Item 8  of  this  Annual  Report)  for  the  current outstanding principal
    balance and a description of the long-term mortgage indebtedness.

(c) Reference is made to Note 5 of the Notes to Financial Statements (Item 8 of
    this  Annual  Report)  for  a  description  of  the  sale  of Partnership's
    investment property.

The Partnership's real  property  investments  are  subject to competition from
similar  types  of  properties  in  the  vicinity  in  which  each  is located.
Approximate occupancy levels for  the  properties  are  set forth on a year-end
basis in the table in Item  2  below  to  which  reference is hereby made.  The
Partnership's real  property  investments  are  located  in  Illinois, Ohio and
Oklahoma.  The Partnership has no real property investments located outside the
United States.   The  Partnership  does  not  segregate  revenues  or assets by
geographic region,  and  such  a  presentation  would  not  be  material  to an
understanding of the Partnership's business taken as a whole.

The Partnership currently has significant  net operating leases with Elite Care
Corporation ("Elite") for the  Douglas  Nursing  Home  and the Hillside Nursing
Home, Scandinavian Health Spa, Inc.  for  the Scandinavian Health Club and Wal-
Mart Stores, Inc. for the  Rantoul  and  Duncan Wal-Marts.  Revenues from these
leases  represent  approximately  28%,  13%   and  18%,  respectively,  of  the
Partnership's income for the year  ended  December 31, 1998, approximately 29%,
13% and 18%,  respectively,  of  the  Partnership's  income  for the year ended
December 31, 1997 and  approximately  28%,  13%  and  18%, respectively, of the
Partnership's income for the year ended December 31, 1996.

The Partnership has utilized its proceeds for investment to acquire properties.
The leases at certain of  the  Partnership's properties entitle the Partnership
to participate in gross receipts of  lessees  above fixed minimum amounts.  The
Partnership's receipt of such amounts  will  depend  in  part on the ability of
those  lessees  to  compete   with   similar  businesses  in  their  respective
vicinities.

The Partnership also competes with  many  other entities engaged in real estate
investment activities in the disposition  of  property.   The ability to locate
purchasers for the properties will  depend  primarily  on the operations of the
properties and the desirability of the locations of the operating properties.

The Partnership had no employees during 1998.

The terms of transactions between the Partnership and Affiliates of the General
Partner of the Partnership are set  forth  in  Item  11 below and Note 3 of the
Notes to Financial Statements (Item 8 of this Annual Report) to which reference
is hereby made for a description of such terms and transactions.

Item 7.  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 annual report on
Form 10-K 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,  competition for tenants; federal,
state, or local  regulations;  adverse  changes  in  general  economic or local
conditions; uninsured losses; and  potential  conflicts of interest between the
Partnership and its Affiliates, including the General Partner.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On August 3, 1987, the  Partnership  commenced an Offering of 50,000 (increased
to 60,000) Limited Partnership  Units  pursuant  to a Registration Statement on
Form S-11 under the Securities Act of  1933.  The Offering terminated on August
3, 1988, with total sales of 59,999  Units at $500 per Unit, resulting in gross
offering  proceeds  of  $29,999,500,   not   including  the  General  Partner's
contribution of $500. All of the  holders  of these Units have been admitted to
the  Partnership.    The   Partnership   acquired  seven  properties  utilizing
$25,831,542  of  capital  proceeds   collected.   During  1994  and  1995,  the
Partnership sold the thirty-eight six-unit condominium buildings comprising the
Schaumburg Terrace condominium complex.  Also,  the Partnership sold one of the
three lots adjacent to the Hillside  Living Center during September 1997. As of
December  31,  1998,  cumulative  distributions  to  Limited  Partners  totaled
$26,968,821, including $2,095,863  of  Supplemental  Capital Contributions from
the  General  Partner,  which  represents  distributable  cash  flow  from  the
properties. The Partnership  repurchased  713  Units  for $356,676 from various
Limited Partners  through  the  Unit  Repurchase  Program.  There  are no funds
remaining for the repurchase of Units through this program.

As of December 31,  1998,  the  Partnership  had  cash  and cash equivalents of
$681,003, which includes approximately $92,300  for  the payment of real estate
taxes for Douglas  and  Hillside  Living  Centers.    Since  December 1997, the
Partnership received prepayments  on  five  of  the thirty-seven mortgage loans
receivable on  the  six-unit  condominium  buildings  comprising the Schaumburg
Terrace  condominium  complex.    Repayment  proceeds  from  these  prepayments
totaling $1,158,884 were held in short-term investments until November 10, 1998
when the $1,000,000 return of capital  was distributed to the limited partners.
The Partnership intends to use  the  remaining  funds for distributions and for
working capital requirements.

The properties owned by the  Partnership,  along  with the interest received on
the Schaumburg Terrace  mortgage  receivables,  are  generating sufficient cash
flow to meet the  8%  annualized  distributions  to  the Limited Partners (paid
monthly),  in  addition  to  covering   all   the  operating  expenses  of  the
Partnership.  To the extent  that  the  cash  flow  is insufficient to meet the
Partnership's  needs,  the  Partnership   may   rely  on  Supplemental  Capital
Contributions from the General Partner, advances from Affiliates of the General
Partner, other short-term financing, or may sell one or more of the properties.



                                     -10-


As of December 31, 1998, the  Partnership  is in the process of refinancing the
existing $1,700,000 loan  collateralized  by  the  Rantoul  Wal-Mart during the
second quarter  of  1999.    The  replacement  loan  will  be for approximately
$2,500,000 and will be collateralized  by  the  Rantoul Wal-Mart and the Duncan
Wal-Mart.  The replacement loan will bear  an interest rate of 190 basis points
over the five year Treasury Rate which will be locked the day of closing.  Such
interest rate currently approximates 7% versus the existing 9.75% interest rate
on the existing loan.  The  replacement loan will require monthly interest only
payments and will mature five years from loan inception.

Results of Operations

As of December 31, 1998, the  Partnership  owns six operating properties.  Five
of these properties were leased  on  a  "triple-net" basis which means that all
expenses of the property are  passed  through  to  the tenant.  The Partnership
also owns a shopping center, McHenry  Plaza.  The leases of the shopping center
provide that the Partnership  be  responsible  for maintenance of the structure
and the parking lot and the  tenants  are required to reimburse the Partnership
for portions of  insurance,  real  estate  taxes  and  common area maintenance.
During  1994  and  1995,   the   Partnership  sold  the  thirty-eight  six-unit
condominium buildings comprising  the  Schaumburg  Terrace condominium complex.
Also, the Partnership sold  one  of  the  three  lots  adjacent to the Hillside
Living Center during September 1997.

The gain on  the  sale  of  investment  property  recorded  for the years ended
December 31, 1998, 1997  and  1996  is  the  result  of  deferred gain from the
Schaumburg Terrace condominium sales  being  recognized  as cash is received on
the related financing extended by the Partnership to the individual purchasers.
Additionally, for the year ended December 31, 1997, the Partnership sold one of
three lots (.344 acres) adjacent to  the  Hillside Living Center resulting in a
gain of $14,805.  Reference  is  made  to  Note  3  of  the  Notes to Financial
Statements (Item 8 of this  Annual  Report)  for  a  description of the sale of
Partnership's investment property.

Rental income for the  Partnership  increased  for  the year ended December 31,
1998, as compared to the years  ended  December  31,  1997 and 1996, due to the
occupancy increase  at  McHenry  Shopping  Plaza.    As  of  December 31, 1998,
approximately 11,949 square feet  representing  21%  of  the total space at the
center  remains  to  be  leased.    The  General  Partner  continues  to pursue
additional leases for this remaining space.

Interest income decreased for the year  ended December 31, 1998, as compared to
the years ended  December  31,  1997  and  1996,  due  to the following reason.
Interest income on third party  mortgages  decreased  as prepayments on five of
the thirty-seven mortgage loans receivable  has been received since December of
1997 with proceeds totaling $1,158,884.    The decrease in third party mortgage
interest income has been partially  offset  by an increase in investment income
due to  holding  the  prepayment  proceeds  until  November  10,  1998 when the
$1,000,000 return of capital was distributed to the limited partners.  Interest
income increased for the year ended December  31, 1997, as compared to the year
ended December 31, 1996, due  to  an  increase  in interest rates on short term
investments and an  increase  in  cash  available  to  be  used  for short term
investments.

Professional services to Affiliates decreased  for  the year ended December 31,
1998, as compared to the  years  ended  December  31,  1997  and 1996, due to a
decrease in legal and accounting services paid to Affiliates.


                                     -11-


General and administrative expenses to  Affiliates increased for the year ended
December 31, 1998, as compared to the  year  ended December 31, 1997, due to an
increase  in  investor  services.    General  and  administrative  expenses  to
Affiliates decreased for the year ended  December  31, 1997, as compared to the
year ended December 31, 1996, due  to  a decrease in investor services and data
processing expenses, partially  offset  by  an  increase  in mortgage servicing
expenses.  General and administrative  expenses to non-affiliates decreased for
the year ended December 31, 1998,  as  compared  to the year ended December 31,
1997,  due  to  decreases  in  messenger  and  postage  expenses  and marketing
expenses.  General and administrative  expenses to non-affiliates increased for
the year ended December 31, 1997,  as  compared  to the year ended December 31,
1996, due to increases in supplies and printing expenses.

Property operating expenses  to  non-affiliates  decreased  for  the year ended
December 31, 1998, as compared to the  year ended December 31, 1997, due to the
decrease in various  expense  items,  such  as  repairs and maintenance, ground
maintenance, painting and  decorating,  and  utilities,  partially offset by an
increase in common  area  maintenance.    Property  operating  expenses to non-
affiliates increased for the year ended  December  31, 1997, as compared to the
year ended December 31, 1996,  due  to  the  increase in various expense items,
such as utilities, supplies, insurance  and repair and maintenance, relating to
vacant and retenanted spaces at McHenry  Plaza Shopping Center.  Also, in 1996,
real estate tax reductions relating  to  prior years for the Schaumburg Terrace
Apartment complex  were  received  and  recorded  as  a  reduction  in property
operating expenses to  non-affiliates  for  the  year  ended December 31, 1996,
producing an abnormal and non-recurring variance between 1996 and 1997.

Year 2000 Issues

GENERAL
-------
Many computer operating systems  and  software  applications were designed such
that the year 1999 is the  maximum  date  that can be processed accurately.  In
conducting business, the Partnership relies  on computers and operating systems
provided by equipment manufacturers, and also on application software developed
internally and,  to  a  limited  extent,  by  outside  software  vendors.   The
Partnership has assessed its  vulnerability  to the so-called "Year-2000 Issue"
with respect to its equipment and computer systems.

STATE OF READINESS
------------------
The Partnership  has  identified  the  following  three  areas  for "Year-2000"
compliance efforts:

Business  Computer  Systems:  The  majority  of  the  Partnership's information
technology systems  were  developed  internally  and  include accounting, lease
management, investment portfolio  tracking,  and  tax  return preparation.  The
Partnership has rights to the  source  code  for these applications and employs
programmers who are  knowledgeable  regarding  these  systems.   The process of
testing these internal  systems  to  determine  year  2000 compliance is nearly
complete.  The Partnership does  not  anticipate any material costs relating to
its  business  computer  systems  regarding  year  2000  compliance  since  the
Partnership's  critical  hardware  and  software  systems  use  four  digits to
represent the applicable year.  The Partnership does use various computers, so-
called "PC's", that may run software that  may not use four digits to represent
the applicable year.  The  Partnership  is  in  the  process  of testing the PC
hardware and software to determine year  2000  compliance, but it must be noted
that such PC's  are  incidental  to  the  Partnership's  critical systems.  The
Partnership is considering independent testing of its critical systems.


                                     -12-


Tenants and Suppliers: The Partnership is  in the process of surveying tenants,
suppliers and other parties with whom the Partnership does a significant amount
of business to identify the Partnership's  potential exposure in the event such
parties are not year 2000  compliant  in  a  timely  manner.  At this time, the
Partnership is not aware of any party that is anticipating a material Year 2000
compliance issue.  However, since  this  area  involves some parties over which
the Partnership  has  no  control,  such  as  public  utility  companies, it is
difficult, at best, to judge  the  status  of  the outside companies' year 2000
compliance. The Partnership is working closely  with all suppliers of goods and
services in an effort to minimize the  impact of the failure of any supplier to
become  year  2000   compliant   by   December   31,  1999.  The  Partnership's
investigations  and  assessments  of  possible   year  2000  issues  are  in  a
preliminary stage, and currently the  Partnership  is not aware of any material
impact on its business, operations or  financial  condition even if one or more
parties is not Year 2000 compliant  in  a  timely manner, due to the number and
nature of the Partnership's diverse tenant base.

Non-Information Technology Systems:  In  the  operation  of its properties, the
Partnership  has  acquired   equipment   with   embedded   technology  such  as
microcontrollers, which  operate  heating,  ventilation,  and  air conditioning
systems,  fire  alarms,  security   systems,  telephones  and  other  equipment
utilizing time-sensitive technology.    The  Partnership  is  in the process of
evaluating its potential exposure and  costs if such non-information technology
systems are not year 2000  compliant  and  expects  to  be able to complete its
assessment during the second quarter of 1999.

YEAR 2000 RISKS
---------------
The most reasonable likely worst case scenario for the Partnership with respect
to the year 2000 non-compliance of  its  business computer systems would be the
inability to access information  which  could  result  in  the failure to issue
financial reports.  The  most  reasonable  likely  worst  case scenario for the
Partnership with respect to  the  year  2000  non-compliance  of its tenants is
failure to receive rental income  which  could  result in the Partnership being
unable to meet  cash  requirements  for  monthly  expenses. The most reasonable
likely worst case scenario for  the  Partnership  with respect to the year 2000
non-compliance of its suppliers is  the  failure to supply necessary utilities;
including, but not limited to heating, as  a result of a malfunctioning of non-
information technology systems in some of the Partnership's properties.

YEAR 2000 COSTS
---------------
The Partnership's General Partner  and  its  Affiliates  estimate that costs to
achieve  year  2000  compliance   will   not  exceed  $100,000.  However,  only
approximately 1% of these costs will  be  directly allocated to and paid by the
Partnership. The balance of the  year 2000 compliance costs, approximately 99%,
will be paid by  the  General  Partner  and  its  Affiliates.   Total year 2000
compliance  costs  incurred  through   December   31,  1998  are  estimated  at
approximately $5,000.









                                     -13-


CONTINGENCY PLAN
----------------
The Partnership is expects to  be  Year  2000  compliant in advance of the year
2000.  The Partnership  will  continue  to  monitor  its  progress and state of
readiness, and is in the  process  of  formulating a contingency plan which the
Partnership will be prepared to adopt  with  respect to areas in which evidence
arises that it may not  become  Year  2000  compliant in sufficient time.  With
respect to its tenants, suppliers  and  other parties with whom the Partnership
conducts business, the Partnership does  not yet have sufficient information to
identify the types  of  problems  it  may  encounter  in  the event these third
parties are not Year  2000  compliant.    As  information  is obtained that may
indicate such parties may not  become  Year  2000 compliant in sufficient time,
the Partnership is prepared to develop contingency plans, accordingly.



Inflation

For the Partnership's  McHenry  Plaza  Shopping  Center  inflation is likely to
increase rental income from leases  to  new tenants and lease renewals, subject
to market conditions.   Continued  inflation  may cause capital appreciation of
this property over  time  as  rental  rates  and  the  replacement  cost of the
property rise.

Rental income and operating expenses  for those partnership properties operated
under triple-net leases  are  not  likely  to  be  directly  affected by future
inflation, since rents are fixed under the leases and property expenses are the
responsibility of  tenants.    The  capital  appreciation  of triple-net-leased
properties is likely to be  influenced  by  interest rate fluctuations.  To the
extent that inflation  affects  interest  rates,  future  inflation may have an
effect on the capital appreciation of triple-net-leased properties.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Partners of 
Inland's Monthly Income Fund, L.P. 

We have audited  the  accompanying  balance  sheets  of Inland's Monthly Income
Fund, L.P. (a limited partnership) as  of  December  31, 1998 and 1997, and the
related statements of operations, partners' capital, and cash flows for each of
the three years  in  the  period  ended  December  31,  1998.   Our audits also
included the financial statement schedule  listed  in  the Index at Item 14(c).
These  financial  statements   and   financial   statement   schedule  are  the
responsibility of  the  Partnership's  management.    Our  responsibility is to
express an  opinion  on  these  financial  statements  and  financial statement
schedule based on our audits.  

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards  require  that  we  plan  and  perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether  the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes  examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures  in  the financial statements.  An audit
also  includes  assessing  the   accounting  principles  used  and  significant
estimates made by  management,  as  well  as  evaluating  the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that  our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion,  such  financial  statements  present  fairly,  in all material
respects, the financial position of  Inland's  Monthly  Income Fund, L.P. as of
December 31, 1998 and 1997,  and  the  results  of  its operations and its cash
flows for each of the three  years  in  the  period ended December 31, 1998, in
conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles.    Also,  in our
opinion, the financial statement schedule referred to above, when considered in
relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in
all material respects the information set forth therein.

                      INLAND'S MONTHLY INCOME FUND, L.P.
                            (a limited partnership)

                         Notes to Financial Statements

             For the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996

(1) Organization and Basis of Accounting

Inland's Monthly Income Fund, L.P. (the "Partnership"), was formed on March 26,
1987 pursuant to  the  Delaware  Revised  Uniform  Limited  Partnership Act, to
invest in improved residential,  retail,  industrial and other income producing
properties.  On August 3, 1987, the Partnership commenced an Offering of 50,000
(subject to an  increase  up  to  60,000)  Limited  Partnership Units ("Units")
pursuant to a  Registration  under  the  Securities  Act  of 1933. The Offering
terminated on August 3, 1988,  with  total  sales  of  59,999 Units at $500 per
Unit, resulting in gross  offering  proceeds  of $29,999,500, not including the
General Partner's contribution of $500.  All of the holders of these Units were
admitted to the Partnership.  Inland  Real Estate Investment Corporation is the
General Partner. The Limited Partners of  the Partnership share in the benefits
of ownership of the  Partnership's  real  property investments in proportion to
the number of Units held.  The  Partnership  repurchased 713 Units for $356,676
from various Limited Partners through  the  Unit Repurchase Program.  There are
no funds remaining for the repurchase of Units through this program.

The preparation of financial  statements  in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principals requires  management  to  make  estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts  of  assets and liabilities and disclosures of
contingent assets and liabilities at  the  date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Offering costs have been offset against the Limited Partners' capital accounts.

Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  No.  121  "Accounting  for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and  for  Long-Lived  Assets to be Disposed of"
("SFAS 121") requires  the  Partnership  to  record  an  impairment loss on its
property to be held for investment  whenever its carrying value cannot be fully
recovered  through  estimated  undiscounted   future   cash  flows  from  their
operations and sale.  The amount of  the impairment loss to be recognized would
be the difference  between  the  property's  carrying  value and the property's
estimated fair value.  As of  December  31,  1998 and 1997, the Partnership has
not recognized any such impairment.

Depreciation expense  is  computed  using  the  straight-line  method  over the
following estimated useful  lives.  Buildings  and  improvements are based upon
estimated useful lives of  30  to  40  years,  while furniture and fixtures are
based upon estimated useful lives  of  5  to  12 years.  Repair and maintenance
expenses are charged to  operations  as  incurred. Significant improvements are
capitalized  and  depreciated  over   their   estimated  useful  lives.  Tenant
improvements are depreciated of the related lease term.

The Partnership  considers  all  highly  liquid  investments  purchased  with a
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents and are carried at cost
which approximates market. For  the  years  ended  December  31, 1998 and 1997,
included in cash and  cash  equivalents  is  approximately $92,300 and $94,000,
respectively, for the payment  of  real  estate  taxes for Douglas and Hillside
Living Centers.

                         Notes to Financial Statements
                                  (continued)


Rental income is recognized  on  a  straight-line  basis  over the term of each
lease.  The difference between rental  income earned on the straight-line basis
and the cash rent due under the  provisions of the lease agreements is recorded
as deferred rent receivable.

Deferred leasing fees are amortized on  a  straight-line basis over the term of
the related lease.  Deferred loan  fees  are amortized on a straight line basis
over the term of the related loan.

Loan fees relating to the mortgage  loans receivable are deferred and amortized
as yield adjustments on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the life of the related
mortgage loan receivable which approximates the effective interest rate method.

No provision for Federal income taxes  has  been made as the liability for such
taxes is that of the Partners rather than the Partnership.

The Partnership's records are maintained on  the accrual basis of accounting in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").  The Federal
income tax return has been prepared  from such records after making appropriate
adjustments relating to depreciation and the Supplemental Capital Contributions
to reflect  the  Partnership's  accounts  as  adjusted  for  Federal income tax
reporting purposes.  Such adjustments  are  not  recorded in the records of the
Partnership.  The net effect of these items is summarized as follows:

                                  (continued)


Statement of Financial Accounting  Standards  No.  128 "Earnings per Share" was
adopted by the Partnership for the  year  ended  December 31, 1997 and has been
applied to all prior  earnings  periods  presented in the financial statements.
The Partnership has no dilutive securities.

A presentation of information about operating segments as required in Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards  No.  131  "Disclosures  About Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information" would  not  be material to an understanding
of the Partnership's business taken as a whole as the Partnership is engaged in
the business of  real  estate  investment  which  management  considers to be a
single operating segment.


(2)  Partnership Agreement

The Partnership Agreement  defines  the  allocation  of distributable available
cash and profits  and  losses.    Limited  Partners  will  receive 100% of cash
available  for  distribution  until  the   Limited  Partners  have  received  a
cumulative preferred return of 8%  per  annum.  Thereafter, the General Partner
shall be allocated an  amount  equal  to any Supplemental Capital Contributions
outstanding at the time of the distribution  and then 95% of cash available for
distribution will be allocated to the Limited Partners and 5% will be allocated
to the General Partner.

Pursuant to the terms of the  Partnership  Agreement, the profits and losses of
the Partnership from operations are allocated as follows:

    (a) Depreciation shall be allocated 99% to the taxable Limited Partners and
        1% to the General Partner.

    (b) To the extent the minimum distribution  of  8% per annum to the Limited
        Partners  is  funded   by   Supplemental   Capital  Contributions,  the
        distribution  shall  be  treated  as  a  guaranteed  payment,  and  the
        resulting deduction shall be allocated to the General Partner.

    (c) The remaining  net  profits  shall  be  allocated  100%  to the Limited
        Partners until the Limited Partners have been allocated an amount equal
        to the distribution  required  to  provide  them a cumulative preferred
        return of 8% per annum.

The Partnership allocates income to  Partners  such  that no Partner group will
receive an allocation of  income  which  is  greater than the Partnership's net
income for the related period.

The General Partner is required  to make Supplemental Capital Contributions, if
necessary, from time to time in  amounts sufficient to allow the Partnership to
make distributions to the Limited Partners to provide a noncompounded return on
their invested capital equal to 8% per annum.  There were no such contributions
by the General Partner to fund the  cumulative preferred return of 8% per annum
for the three year period ended  December  31,  1998.  The cumulative amount of
such Supplemental Capital Contributions at December 31, 1998 is $2,095,863.

                                  (continued)


(3) Transactions with Affiliates

The General  Partner  and  its  Affiliates  are  entitled  to reimbursement for
salaries and expenses of employees  of  the  General Partner and its Affiliates
relating to the administration  of  the  Partnership,  of which $472 and $2,011
remained unpaid at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

An Affiliate of the General Partner  is entitled to receive Property Management
Fees for  management  and  leasing  services.    The  Partnership  has incurred
property management fees of $36,194,  $33,038  and  $28,820 for the years ended
December 31, 1998, 1997  and  1996  respectively.    Such  fees are included in
property operating expenses to Affiliates,  all  of  which have been paid as of
December 31, 1998.


(4) Investment Properties

McHenry Plaza, McHenry, Illinois

On October 19, 1987, the  Partnership  purchased  a 57,910 square foot shopping

The cost of this property to  the Partnership was $1,967,200 which includes the

termination of a lease with Duckwell-Alco Stores, Inc., the tenant which leased
94% of the space  in  the  center  at  the  time  the Partnership purchased the
property. This upgrade was financed by a  line of credit secured by the Rantoul
Wal-Mart. See Note 8 for further discussion of permanent financing obtained.

The major tenant at McHenry Plaza is  a Walgreens drug store. Other tenants are
Don Robert's Beauty  School,  Northern  Federal  Bank, Merit Medical Equipment,
Family Entertainment Center, a Mexican restaurant, a nail salon and Race World,
a car racing hobby  center.    As  of  December  31, 1998, approximately 11,949
square feet, representing 21% of the  total  space at the center, remains to be
leased. The General  Partner  continues  to  pursue  additional leases for this
remaining space.

tenant has the right to extend  the  lease for an additional ten-year term. The
current rent per annum is $399,770  and adjusts annually. In 1992, the operator
of this facility negotiated with a  new  operator to sublease the facility. The
General Partner approved the  transaction  with  no  significant changes to the
terms of the lease. See Note 5  for  a  discussion  on the sale of a portion of
this property.

(5) Gain on Sale of Investment Property

As of December 31, 1995, the Partnership  had sold all of the thirty-eight six-
unit  condominium  buildings  comprising  the  Schaumburg  Terrace  condominium
complex to unaffiliated third  parties.  The Partnership received $249,596 from
one all-cash sale and recorded  a  gain  of  $71,865  in 1994. In addition, the
Partnership received $823,518 in  down  payment proceeds, and provided mortgage
loans totaling $8,701,439  to  the  purchasers  for the thirty-seven additional
sales. The principal balances of  these  loans range from $210,640 to $255,891.
These loans require monthly  principal  and  interest payments totaling $67,763
based on an interest rate of 8.625%  per  annum for ten years and a thirty year
amortization period with payment of all  remaining principal at the end of that
period. The Partnership has recorded $150,141,  $236,745 and $20,799 of gain as
a result of  these  installment  sales  in  1998,  1997 and 1996, respectively.
During 1998, the Partnership  received  prepayments  on  two of the thirty-four
mortgage loans receivable on the  six-unit condominium buildings comprising the
Schaumburg  Terrace  condominium   complex.   Repayment   proceeds  from  these
prepayments  total  $456,051  and,   accordingly,  the  Partnership  recognized
$130,627  of  previously  deferred  gain.    The  remaining  deferred  gain  of
$2,139,999 as of December 31,  1998  will  be  recognized  over the life of the
related mortgage loans as principal payments are received. 

On September 12, 1997,  the  Partnership  sold  one  of three lots (.344 acres)
adjacent to the Hillside Living  Center.  The Partnership received $39,579 from
the sale and recorded a gain of $14,805.


(6) Operating Leases

Minimum lease payments to be received  in  the future from operating leases are
as follows:

         1999.......................................... $ 2,054,114
         2000..........................................   1,976,492
         2001..........................................   1,091,392
         2002..........................................     994,886
         2003..........................................     994,886

                                                        ------------
         Total......................................... $16,038,165
                                                        ============

No assumptions have been made regarding  the  releasing of expiring leases.  It
is the opinion of the General Partner that the space will be released at market
rates.

Remaining lease terms range from  one  year  to  thirty years.  Pursuant to the
lease agreements, tenants  of  McHenry  Plaza  Shopping  Center are required to
reimburse the Partnership for their pro rata share of the real estate taxes and
operating expenses of the property.    Such  amounts are included in additional
rental income.

                         Notes to Financial Statements
                                  (continued)


The Partnership currently has significant  net operating leases with Elite Care
Corporation ("Elite") for the  Douglas  Nursing  Home  and the Hillside Nursing
Home, Scandinavian Health Spa, Inc.  for  the Scandinavian Health Club and Wal-
Mart Stores, Inc. for the  Rantoul  and  Duncan Wal-Marts.  Revenues from these
leases  represent  approximately  28%,  13%   and  18%,  respectively,  of  the
Partnership's income for the year  ended  December 31, 1998, approximately 29%,
13% and 18%,  respectively,  of  the  Partnership's  income  for the year ended
December 31, 1997 and  approximately  28%,  13%  and  18%, respectively, of the
Partnership's income for the year ended December 31, 1996.

Certain tenant leases contain provisions  providing for stepped rent increases.
Generally accepted accounting principles require that rental income be recorded
for the  period  of  occupancy  on  a  straight-line  basis.   The accompanying
financial statements include decreases of  $34,622  and $24,703 and an increase
of $538 in 1998, 1997 and  1996,  respectively, of rental income for the period
of occupancy for which stepped  rent  increases apply and $401,205 and $435,827
in  related  deferred  rent  receivable  as  of  December  31,  1998  and 1997,
respectively.  These amounts will  be  collected  over the terms of the related
leases as scheduled  rent  payments  are  made.    Deferred  rent receivable of
$16,341 was written off against rental  income  for the year ended December 31,
1997, due to the restructuring of a lease at McHenry Plaza Shopping Center.  


(7) Long-Term Debt

On February 26, 1992, the Partnership obtained a $1,700,000 loan collateralized
by the Rantoul Wal-Mart to replace a  maturing line of credit for the upgrading
of McHenry Plaza Shopping Center.  The loan bears an interest rate of 9.75% and
requires monthly principal and interest payments of $15,662 through March 2002,
when all unpaid principal and interest is  due.  The Partnership paid a $17,000
loan fee to the lender and incurred  $29,288 of other costs associated with the
funding of the loan.

As of December 31, 1998,  the  required principal payments on the Partnership's
long-term debt over the next four years are as follows:

         1999.......................................... $   44,709
         2000..........................................     49,268
         2001..........................................     54,293
         2002..........................................  1,340,937
