PART I



Item 1.

Description of Business



Multi-Benefit Realty Fund '87-1 (the "Partnership" or "Registrant") was organized on September 8, 1986, as a limited partnership under the California Revised Limited Partnership Act. ConCap Equities, Inc. ("CEI") is the general partner of the Partnership (see additional information below). CEI (the "General Partner") is a subsidiary of Apartment Investment and Management Company ("AIMCO"), a publicly traded real estate investment trust.



Commencing December 10, 1986, the Registrant offered, pursuant to a Registration Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, $60,000,000 of Units of Depositary Receipts (collectively, the "Units," and individually, "Unit"). Upon the closing of the offering, the Partnership received subscriptions for 172,436 Units resulting in gross proceeds of $17,244,000. The Units were sold in two different classes, ("A" Units and "B" Units) which are entitled to different rights and priorities as to cash distributions and Partnership allocations.  The Units represent economic rights attributable to the limited partnership interests in the Partnership and entitle the holders ("Unit holders") thereof to participate in certain allocations and distributions of the Partnership. The original intent of the Partnership was that the "A" Units and "B" Units be allocated such that the "B" Units would not exceed 25% nor be less than 20% of the total amount of the Units sold. Upon closing of the offering and up through the current fiscal year, the "B" Units represented approximately 44% of the total amount of the Units sold. Several alternative procedures had been considered which would have allowed the Partnership to conform the unit allocations more closely to the original intended investment objectives; however, no economically feasible alternatives were determined to exist. The corporate limited partner of the Partnership was Multi-Benefit '87-1 Depositary Corporation, an affiliate of the General Partner. The Partnership may repurchase or retire any Units, at its absolute discretion, but is under no obligation to do so. Since its initial offering, 1,000 Units have been retired. Since its initial offering, the Partnership has not received, nor are limited partners required to make, additional capital contributions.



Upon the Partnership's formation in 1986, Consolidated Capital Equities Corporation ("CCEC"), a Colorado corporation, was the sole general partner of the Partnership and the corporate limited partner, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CCEC, was the sole limited partner. In 1988, through a series of transactions, Southmark Corporation ("Southmark") acquired a controlling interest in CCEC. In December 1988, CCEC filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code.  In 1990, as part of CCEC's reorganization plan, CEI acquired CCEC's general partner interest in the Partnership and in 15 other affiliated public limited partnerships
(the "Affiliated Partnerships"), acquired the stock of the corporate limited partner, and CEI replaced CCEC as managing general partner in all 16 partnerships. The selection of CEI as the sole managing general partner was approved by a majority of the Unit holders in the Partnership and of the limited partners in each of the Affiliated Partnerships pursuant to a solicitation of the Unit holders dated August 10, 1990. As part of this solicitation, the Unit holders also approved an amendment to the Partnership Agreement to limit changes of control of the Partnership.



All of CEI's outstanding stock was owned by Insignia Properties Trust ("IPT"), which acquired the stock through two transactions in December 1994 and October 1995. Effective February 26, 1999, IPT was merged into AIMCO.



The Partnership is engaged in the business of operating and holding real estate properties for investment. The Partnership originally acquired three apartment properties, one of which was sold prior to 2002. On October 28, 2003, the Partnership sold another of its investment properties, Shadow Brook Apartments. The Partnership sold its remaining investment property, Hunt Club Apartments, on December 1, 2005.



As of December 31, 2005, the Partnership adopted the liquidation basis of accounting, due to the sale of its remaining investment property during 2005. The Partnership estimates liquidation will be completed by December 31, 2006.



The Partnership has no employees. Management and administrative services are provided by the General Partner and agents retained by the General Partner. An affiliate of the General Partner provided such management services for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004.



A further description of the Partnerships business is included in Item 6. Managements Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation of this Form 10-KSB.



Item 2.

Description of Property



On December 1, 2005, the Partnership sold its sole investment property, Hunt Club Apartments, to a third party. In addition to Hunt Club, the third party also purchased four other apartment complexes, each of which was owned in whole or in part by affiliates of AIMCO, an affiliate of the General Partner. The total sales price for Hunt Club Apartments and the four other properties was approximately $38,501,000 of which approximately $4,552,000 was allocated to Hunt Club Apartments. The net proceeds realized by the Partnership were approximately $3,592,000 after payment of closing costs and a prepayment penalty paid by the purchaser. The Partnership used approximately $3,396,000 to repay the mortgage encumbering the property. The Partnership realized a gain of approximately $2,138,000 as a result of the sale. In addition, the Partnership recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $1,020,000 as a result of the write-off of unamortized loan costs of approximately $99,000 and a prepayment penalty of approximately $921,000 which was paid by the purchaser.



Capital Improvements



Hunt Club



The Partnership completed approximately $316,000 of capital improvements at Hunt Club Apartments consisting primarily of appliances and floor covering replacements, parking lot improvements, air conditioning upgrades, building improvements and balcony replacements. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow, advances from an affiliate and insurance proceeds. On December 1, 2005, the Partnership sold Hunt Club Apartments to a third party.



Item 3.

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 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 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.  Plaintiffs took an appeal from this order.



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.  The matter was transferred back to the trial court on June 21, 2005.  With regard to the second appeal, the Court of Appeals reversed the order requiring the Objector to pay referee fees. With respect to the related Heller appeal, on July 28, 2005, the Court of Appeals reversed the trial courts order striking the first amended complaint.



On August 18, 2005, Objector and his counsel filed a motion to disqualify the trial court based on a peremptory challenge and filed a motion to disqualify for cause on October 17, 2005, both of which were ultimately denied and/or struck by the trial court.  On or about October 13, 2005 Objector filed a motion to intervene and on or about October 19, 2005 filed both a motion to take discovery relating to the adequacy of plaintiffs as derivative representatives and a motion to dissolve the anti-suit injunction in connection with settlement.  On November 14, 2005, Plaintiffs filed a Motion For Further Findings pursuant to the remand ordered by the Court of Appeals. Defendants joined in that motion.  On February 3, 2006, the Court held a hearing on the various matters pending before it and has ordered additional briefing from the parties and Objector.



The 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.



AIMCO Properties L.P. and NHP Management Company, both affiliates of the 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, filed in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, 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 excess of 40 hours in a week.   In June 2005 the Court conditionally certified the collective action on both the on-call and overtime issues, which allows the plaintiffs to provide notice of the collective action to all non-exempt maintenance workers from August 7, 2000 through the present.  Notices have been sent out to all current and former hourly maintenance workers. The opt-in period has not yet closed. Defendants will have the opportunity to move to decertify the collective action.  Because the court denied plaintiffs motion to certify state subclasses, on September 26, 2005, the plaintiffs filed a class action with the same allegations in the Superior Court of California (Contra Costa County), and on November 5, 2005 in Montgomery County Maryland Circuit Court.  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 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 4.

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders



During the quarter ended December 31, 2005, no matters were submitted to a vote of the Unit holders through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise.



PART II



Item 5.

Market for the Partnership's Units of Depository Receipts and Related Security Holder Matters



No established public trading market has developed for the Units of Depository Receipts ("Units") and it is not anticipated that such a market will develop in the future.

|Title of Class:              | Number of Record Unit holders:
|Units of Depositary Receipts |

|B Units                      | 508 as of December 31, 2005   



The Partnership offered and sold 172,436 "A" and "B" Units. At December 31, 2005, the Partnership had 96,284 "A" Units and 75,152 "B" Units outstanding. Affiliates of the General Partner held 63,163 "A" Units (65.60%) and 40,151 "B" Units (53.43%) at December 31, 2005.



In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partner interest in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 63,163 "A" and 40,151 "B" Units in the Partnership representing 65.60% and 53.43% of the outstanding "A" and "B" Units, respectively, at December 31, 2005. A number of these units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. 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 General Partner. As a result of its ownership of 65.60% and 53.43% of the outstanding "A" and "B" Units, respectively, AIMCO and its affiliates are in a position to control all such voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. Although the General Partner owes fiduciary duties to the limited partners of the Partnership, the General Partner also owes fiduciary duties to AIMCO as its sole stockholder. As a result, the duties of the General Partner, as general partner, to the Partnership and its limited partners may come into conflict with the duties of the General Partner to AIMCO as its sole stockholder.



Subsequent to December 31, 2005 a distribution of approximately $437,000 was made to the B unitholders. The distribution was made from deficit restoration funds of approximately $1,492,000 required to be contributed by the General Partner upon liquidation of the Partnership as defined in the partnership agreement.



Future cash distributions will depend on the amount of cash remaining after fully liquidating the Partnership. The Partnerships cash available for distributions will be reviewed on a quarterly basis. There can be no assurance, however, that the Partnership will have any funds available after liquidation to permit distributions to its partners in 2006.



Item 6.

Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation



This item should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and other items contained elsewhere in this report.



Results of Operations



As of December 31, 2005, the Partnership adopted the liquidation basis of accounting, due to the sale of its remaining investment property, Hunt Club Apartments.  Prior to adopting the liquidation basis of accounting, the Partnerships net income was approximately $759,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to a net loss of approximately $353,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004.  The increase in net income is due to a gain from sale of discontinued operations in 2005, partially offset by an increase in loss from discontinued operations.



On December 1, 2005, the Partnership sold its sole investment property, Hunt Club Apartments, to a third party. In addition to Hunt Club, the third party also purchased four other apartment complexes, each of which was owned in whole or in part by affiliates of AIMCO, an affiliate of the General Partner. The total sales price for Hunt Club Apartments and the four other properties was approximately $38,501,000 of which approximately $4,552,000 was allocated to Hunt Club Apartments. The net proceeds realized by the Partnership were approximately $3,592,000 after payment of closing costs and a prepayment penalty paid by the purchaser. The Partnership used approximately $3,396,000 to repay the mortgage encumbering the property. The Partnership realized a gain of approximately $2,138,000 as a result of the sale. In addition, the Partnership recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $1,020,000 as a result of the write-off of unamortized loan costs of approximately $99,000 and a prepayment penalty of approximately $921,000 which was paid by the purchaser.



Excluding the impact of the gain from sale of discontinued operations, the Partnerships loss from discontinued operations was approximately $1,379,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005 as compared to a net loss from discontinued operations of approximately $353,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004.  The increase in net loss from discontinued operations is due to a decrease in total revenues and an increase in total expenses.  The decrease in total revenues is due to a decrease in rental and other income partially offset by an increase in casualty gain recognized during 2005.  The decrease in rental income is primarily due to a decrease in the average rental rate charged at Hunt Club Apartments partially offset by an increase in occupancy at the property and a decrease in bad debt expense. The decrease in other income is primarily due to a decrease in lease cancellation fees and utilities reimbursements.



In March 2005, a fire occurred at Hunt Club Apartments, which caused damage to three units at the property.  The gain was the result of the receipt of insurance proceeds of approximately $47,000 offset by approximately $6,000 of undepreciated property improvements and replacements being written off.



Total expenses increased due to increases in operating, general and administrative and property tax expenses and the loss recognized on the early extinguishment of debt as a result of the 2005 sale of Hunt Club Apartments (as discussed above) partially offset by decreases in depreciation and interest expenses. Operating expense increased due to an increase in maintenance expenses. Maintenance expense increased due to an increase in repairs needed at the property and ground work. Property tax expense increased as a result of adjustments recorded in 2004 related to the successful appeal of the reassessed value of Hunt Club Apartments by the local taxing authorities. During 2003, the state of Indiana implemented a reassessment of property values. During 2004, the Partnership successfully appealed
the reassessed property tax value of Hunt Club Apartments. In the state of Indiana property tax bills are paid one year in arrears. Thus, the 2003 property tax bills were received and paid in 2004. As a result of the Partnerships successful appeal of the reassessed property value an adjustment of approximately $16,000 related to 2002 taxes and $48,000 related to 2003 taxes was recorded during the third and fourth quarters of 2004. The appeal resulted in a lower assessed value which resulted in a refund of 2002 taxes paid in 2003, a refund for 2003 taxes paid in 2004 and a reduction in the accrual for 2004 taxes to be paid in 2005. Depreciation expense decreased as a result of classifying Hunt Club Apartments as held for sale effective October 1, 2005 and accordingly discontinuing the recognition of depreciation expense from this date. Interest expense decreased due to the payment of scheduled principal payments on the mortgage encumbering the Partnerships investment property, which reduced the average outstanding balance during the year.



General and administrative expenses increased due to an increase in accountable reimbursements charged by an affiliate of the 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.



Liquidity and Capital Resources



The Partnership expects to liquidate during 2006 due to the sale of its remaining investment property (see Note A to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 7. Financial Statements).



At December 31, 2005, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $24,000 compared to approximately $16,000 at December 31, 2004.  Cash and cash equivalents increased approximately $8,000 from December 31, 2004 due to approximately $3,314,000 of cash provided by investing activities offset by approximately $3,161,000 and $145,000 of cash used in financing and operating activities, respectively.  Cash provided by investing activities consisted primarily of proceeds from the sale of Hunt Club Apartments and insurance proceeds received partially offset by property improvements and replacements. Cash used in financing activities consisted primarily of the repayment of the mortgage note payable and to a lesser extent, payments of principal made on the mortgage and repayment of advances received from an affiliate partially offset by advances received from an affiliate. The Partnership invests its working capital reserves in interest bearing accounts.



As a result of the decision to liquidate the Partnership, the Partnership changed its basis of accounting for its consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2005, to the liquidation basis of accounting.  Consequently, assets have been valued at estimated net realizable value and liabilities are presented at their estimated settlement amounts, including estimated costs associated with carrying out the liquidation of the Partnership. The valuation of assets and liabilities necessarily requires many estimates and assumptions and there are substantial uncertainties in carrying out the liquidation. The actual realization of assets and settlement of liabilities could be higher or lower than amounts indicated and is based upon estimates of the General Partner as of the date of the consolidated financial statements.



Included in the statement of net assets in liquidation as of December 31, 2005 is approximately $47,000 of costs that the General Partner estimates will be incurred during the period of liquidation, which is based on the assumption that the liquidation process will be completed by December 31, 2006.



At December 31, 2005, in accordance with the liquidation basis of accounting, assets were adjusted to their estimated net realizable value and liabilities were
adjusted to their estimated settlement amount. The net adjustment required to convert to the liquidation basis of accounting was a decrease in net assets of approximately $47,000 which is included in the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Partners' (Deficiency) Capital/Net assets in Liquidation. The net adjustments are summarized as follows:



|                                                |

|Adjustment of other assets and liabilities, net | $(47)         



Subsequent to December 31, 2005 a distribution of approximately $437,000 was made to the B unitholders. The distribution was made from deficit restoration funds of approximately $1,492,000 required to be contributed by the General Partner upon liquidation of the Partnership as defined in the partnership agreement.



Future cash distributions will depend on the amount of cash remaining after fully liquidating the Partnership. The Partnerships cash available for distributions will be reviewed on a quarterly basis. There can be no assurance, however, that the Partnership will have any funds available after liquidation to permit distributions to its partners in 2006.



In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partner interest in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 63,163 "A" and 40,151 "B" Units of Depository Receipts ("Units") in the Partnership representing 65.60% and 53.43% of the outstanding "A" and "B" Units, respectively, at December 31, 2005. A number of these units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. 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 General Partner. As a result of its ownership of 65.60% and 53.43% of the outstanding "A" and "B" Units, respectively, AIMCO and its affiliates are in a position to control all such voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. Although the General Partner owes fiduciary duties to the limited partners of the Partnership, the General Partner also owes fiduciary duties to AIMCO as its sole stockholder. As a result, the duties of the General Partner, as general partner, to the Partnership and its limited partners may come into conflict with the duties of the General Partner to AIMCO as its sole stockholder.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm





The Partners

Multi-Benefit Realty Fund '87-1





We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of net assets in liquidation of Multi-Benefit Realty Fund '87-1 as of December 31, 2005, and the related consolidated statements of discontinued operations, changes in partners' (deficiency) capital/net assets in liquidation, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2005. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.



We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Partnerships internal control over financial reporting.  Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnerships internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.



As discussed in Note A to the consolidated financial statements, the General Partner decided to liquidate the Partnership effective December 31, 2005. As a result, the Partnership changed its basis of accounting as of December 31, 2005 from a going concern basis to a liquidation basis.



In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated net assets in liquidation of Multi-Benefit Realty Fund '87-1 at December 31, 2005, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2005, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles applied on the bases described in the preceding paragraph.

Note A  Basis of Presentation



As of December 31, 2005, Multi Benefit Realty Fund 87-1 (the Partnership or Registrant) adopted the liquidation basis of accounting due to the sale of its remaining investment property (as discussed in Note G  Disposition of Investment Property).



As a result of the decision to liquidate the Partnership, the Partnership changed its basis of accounting for its consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2005, to the liquidation basis of accounting.  Consequently, assets have been valued at estimated net realizable value and liabilities are presented at their estimated settlement amounts, including estimated costs associated with carrying out the liquidation of the Partnership. The valuation of assets and liabilities necessarily requires many estimates and assumptions and there are substantial uncertainties in carrying out the liquidation. The actual realization of assets and settlement of liabilities could be higher or lower than amounts indicated and is based upon the General Partners estimates as of the date of the consolidated financial statements.



The General Partner estimates that the liquidation process will be completed by December 31, 2006.  Because the success in realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities is based on the General Partners best estimates, the liquidation period may be shorter than projected or it may be extended beyond the projected period.



Note B - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies



Organization



Multi-Benefit Realty Fund '87-1 was organized as a limited partnership under the laws of the State of California pursuant to a Certificate and Agreement of Limited Partnership filed September 8, 1986. The Partnership commenced operations on February 27, 1987. ConCap Equities, Inc. ("CEI" or the "General Partner") is a subsidiary of Apartment Investment and Management Company ("AIMCO"), a publicly traded real estate investment trust. The Partnership Agreement provides that the Partnership is to terminate on December 31, 2036, unless terminated prior to such date. The Partnership sold its remaining property during the year ended December 31, 2005 (as discussed in Note G  Disposition of Investment Property.)



Upon the Partnership's formation in 1986, Consolidated Capital Equities Corporation ("CCEC"), a Colorado corporation, was the sole general partner of the Partnership and the corporate limited partner, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CCEC, was the sole limited partner. In 1988, through a series of transactions, Southmark Corporation ("Southmark") acquired a controlling interest in CCEC. In December 1988, CCEC filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. In 1990, as part of CCEC's reorganization plan, CEI acquired CCEC's general partner interest in the Partnership and in 15 other affiliated public limited partnerships (the "Affiliated Partnerships"), acquired the stock of the corporate limited partner, and CEI replaced CCEC as General Partner in all 16 partnerships.  The selection of CEI as the sole General Partner was approved by a majority of the Unit holders in the Partnership and of the limited partners in each of the Affiliated Partnershipspursuant to a solicitation of the Unit holders dated August 10, 1990.  As part of this solicitation, the Unit holders also approved an amendment to the Partnership Agreement to limit changes of control of the Partnership.



Principles of Consolidation



The consolidated financial statements of the Partnership include its 99% limited partnership interest in Hunt Club Associates, Ltd. The general partner of Hunt Club Associates, Ltd. is the General Partner. The Partnership may remove the general partner of Hunt Club Associates, Ltd; therefore, this partnership is controlled and consolidated by the Partnership. All significant interpartnership balances have been eliminated.



Use of Estimates



The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.



Partners' (Deficiency) Capital



The Partnership has issued two classes of Units of Depositary Receipts ("Units"), "A" Units and "B" Units.  The two classes of Units are entitled to different rights and priorities as to cash distributions and partnership allocations. The Units represent economic rights attributable to the limited partnership interests in the Partnership and entitle the holders thereof ("Unit holders") to participate in certain allocations of the Partnership.



The Partnership Agreement provides for the allocation of net income and net losses from operations for both financial and tax reporting purposes as follows: net profits are first allocated in the reverse order of any net losses then are allocated 99% to the holders of "A" Units until they have been allocated income equal to their priority return, and 1% to the General Partner.  The priority return represents 9% per annum return on invested capital for the Partnership's first fiscal year, 9.5% for the second year and 10% per annum thereafter. Additional net profits are allocated 1% to the General Partner and 99% to the Unit holders. Net losses are allocated 1% to the General Partner and 99% to the Unit holders until their capital accounts are depleted. Additional net losses are allocated to the General Partner.  Net income (loss) per limited partnership unit for both 2005 and 2004 was computed as 99% of net income (loss) divided by 171,436 units outstanding.



Distributable cash from operations is allocated 1% to the General Partner and 99% to the Unit holders with holders of "A" Units first receiving their priority return, then the balance is split equally between holders of "A" Units and "B" Units. The General Partner receives 1% of surplus funds and holders of "A" and "B" Units will receive a return of their invested capital.  Any remainder will be allocated 10% to holders of "A" Units and 90% to holders of "B" Units.



Cash and Cash Equivalents



Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand and in banks. At certain times, the amount of cash deposited at a bank may exceed the limit on insured deposits. Cash balances include approximately $24,000 at December 31, 2005 that are maintained by an affiliated management company on behalf of affiliated entities in cash concentration accounts.



Investment Property



Investment property consisted of one apartment complex and was stated at cost.  The Partnership capitalized costs incurred in connection with capital expenditure activities, including redevelopment and construction projects, other tangible property improvements and replacements of existing property components.  Costs
associated with redevelopment projects were capitalized in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 67, Accounting for Costs and the Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Properties.  Costs incurred in connection with capital projects were capitalized where the costs of the project exceed $250.  Included in these capitalized costs were payroll costs associated with time spent by site employees in connection with the planning, execution and control of all capital expenditure activities at the property level.  The Partnership capitalized interest, property taxes and operating costs in accordance with SFAS No. 34 Capitalization of Interest Costs during periods in which redevelopment and construction projects were in progress.  The Partnership did not capitalize any costs related to interest, property taxes or operating costs during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004.  Capitalized costs were depreciated over the useful life of the asset.  Expenditures for ordinary repairs, maintenance and apartment turnover costs were expensed as incurred.



In accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, the Partnership recorded impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when events and circumstances indicate the assets might be impaired and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets were less than the carrying amounts of those assets.  No adjustments for impairment of value were necessary for the years ending December 31, 2005 and 2004.



Leases



The Partnership generally leased apartment units for twelve-month terms or less.  The Partnership offered 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, were recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.  The Partnership evaluated all accounts receivable from residents and established 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.



Segment Reporting



SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" established standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports. SFAS No. 131 also established standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. As defined in SFAS No. 131, the Partnership has only one reportable segment.



Advertising



Advertising costs of approximately $24,000 and $28,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, were charged to expense as incurred and are included in operating expenses.



Recent Accounting Pronouncement



In May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 154 Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, which replaces APB Opinion No. 20 and SFAS No. 3, and changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. This statement is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005, although early adoption is permitted for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after the date SFAS No. 154 was issued. The Partnership does not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS No. 154 will have a
material effect on the Partnerships consolidated financial condition or results of operations.



Note C  Adjustment to Liquidation Basis of Accounting



At December 31, 2005, in accordance with the liquidation basis of accounting, assets were adjusted to their estimated net realizable value and liabilities were adjusted to their estimated settlement amount. The net adjustment required to convert to the liquidation basis of accounting was a decrease in net assets of approximately $47,000, which is included in the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Partners (Deficiency) Capital/Net Assets in Liquidation. The net adjustments are summarized as follows:



|                                                |

|Adjustment of other assets and liabilities, net | $(47)         



Note D - Income Taxes



The Partnership received a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service that it is to be classified as a partnership for Federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is made in the consolidated financial statements of the Partnership. Taxable income or loss of the Partnership is reported in the income tax returns of its partners.



The following is a reconciliation of reported net income (loss) and Federal taxable loss (in thousands, except per unit data):

|"B" Units                                 | $(3.31) | $(2.41) 



The following is a reconciliation between the Partnership's reported amounts and Federal tax basis of net assets (in thousands) as of December 31, 2005:

|Net assets - tax basis                | $1,377  



Note E - Transactions with Affiliated Parties



The Partnership has no employees and depends on the 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 General Partner receive 5% of gross receipts from the Partnership's property as compensation for providing property management services. The Partnership paid to such affiliates approximately $65,000 and $69,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, which is included in operating expenses.



Affiliates of the General Partner charged the Partnership reimbursement of accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately $124,000 and $72,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expenses and gain on sale of discontinued operations.  The portion of these reimbursements included in gain on sale of discontinued operations are fees related to construction management services provided by an affiliate of the General Partner of approximately $53,000 for 2005 and $14,000 for 2004. At December 31, 2005, approximately $99,000 of reimbursements for services was accrued by the Partnership and is included in due to affiliates.



The Partnership Agreement provides for a fee equal to 9% of distributable cash from operations (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) received by the limited partners to be paid to the General Partner for executive and administrative management services. There were no such fees for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004.



In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, an affiliate of the General Partner loaned the Partnership approximately $92,000 during the year ended December 31, 2004 to fund capital projects and accounts payable and approximately $358,000 during the year ended December 31, 2005 to fund accounts payable at the Partnerships sole property. The Partnership repaid approximately $18,000 of such advances during 2005. There were no payments made during 2004. Interest accrues at the prime rate plus 2% (9.25% at December 31, 2005). Interest expense was approximately $19,000 and less than $1,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. At December 31, 2005, approximately $452,000, including accrued interest, was outstanding and is included in due to affiliates.



The Partnership insured its property 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, general liability and vehicle liability. The Partnership insured its property above the AIMCO limits through insurance policies obtained by AIMCO from insurers unaffiliated with the General Partner. During the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $22,000 and $20,000, respectively, for insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration.



In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partner interest in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 63,163 "A" and 40,151 "B" Units in the Partnership representing 65.60% and 53.43% of the outstanding "A" and "B" Units, respectively, at December 31, 2005. A number of these units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. 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 General Partner. As a result of its ownership of 65.60% and 53.43% of the outstanding "A" and "B" Units, respectively, AIMCO and its affiliates are in a position to control all such voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. Although the General Partner owes fiduciary duties to the limited partners of the Partnership, the General Partner also owes fiduciary duties to AIMCO as its sole stockholder. As a result, the duties of the General Partner, as general partner, to the Partnership
and its limited partners may come into conflict with the duties of the General Partner to AIMCO as its sole stockholder.



Note F  Casualty Gain



During the year ended December 31, 2005, a net casualty gain of approximately $41,000 was recorded at Hunt Club Apartments. The casualty gain related to a fire, occurring in March 2005, which caused damage to three units at the property. The gain was the result of the receipt of insurance proceeds of approximately $47,000 offset by approximately $6,000 of undepreciated property improvements and replacements being written off.



Note G  Disposition of Investment Property



On December 1, 2005, the Partnership sold its sole investment property, Hunt Club Apartments, to a third party. In addition to Hunt Club, the third party also purchased four other apartment complexes, each of which was owned in whole or in part by affiliates of AIMCO, an affiliate of the General Partner. The total sales price for Hunt Club Apartments and the four other properties was approximately $38,501,000 of which approximately $4,552,000 was allocated to Hunt Club Apartments. The net proceeds realized by the Partnership were approximately $3,592,000 after payment of closing costs and a prepayment penalty paid by the purchaser. The Partnership used approximately $3,396,000 to repay the mortgage encumbering the property. The Partnership realized a gain of approximately $2,138,000 as a result of the sale. In addition, the Partnership recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $1,020,000 as a result of the write-off of unamortized loan costs of approximately $99,000 and a prepayment penalty of approximately $921,000 which was paid by the purchaser.



Note H  Deficit Restoration



As of December 31, 2005, the Partnership adopted the liquidation basis of accounting due to the sale of its remaining investment property. Per the Partnership Agreement, if the General Partner has a deficit balance in its capital account, on a tax basis, following the liquidation of the Partnership, it shall be unconditionally obligated to restore the amount of such deficit balance to the Partnership in cash within 90 days. The Partnership has recorded a receivable from the General Partner at December 31, 2005 of approximately $1,492,000 to restore the General Partners deficit tax basis balance. Subsequent to December 31, 2005, the balance was received from the General Partner.



Note I  Property Taxes



During 2003, the state of Indiana implemented a reassessment of property values.  During 2004, the Partnership successfully appealed the reassessed property tax value of Hunt Club Apartments.  In the state of Indiana property tax bills are paid one year in arrears.  Thus, the 2003 property tax bills were received and paid in 2004.  As a result of the Partnerships successful appeal of the reassessed property value an adjustment of approximately $16,000 related to 2002 taxes and $48,000 related to 2003 taxes was recorded during the third and fourth quarters of 2004.  The appeal resulted in a lower assessed value which resulted in a refund of 2002 taxes paid in 2003, a refund for 2003 taxes paid in 2004 and a reduction in the accrual for 2004 taxes to be paid in 2005.



Note J  Subsequent Event



Subsequent to December 31, 2005 the Partnership received approximately $1,492,000 form the Partnerships General Partner in payment of the deficit restoration required by the partnership agreement. Upon receipt of such funds, the Partnership
distributed approximately $437,000 to the B unitholders and repaid approximately $551,000 which was owed to affiliates at December 31, 2005.



Note K - 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 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 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.  Plaintiffs took an appeal from this order.



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.  The matter was transferred back to the trial court on June 21, 2005.  With regard to the second appeal, the Court of Appeals reversed the order requiring the Objector to pay referee fees. With respect to the related Heller appeal, on July 28, 2005, the Court of Appeals reversed the trial courts order striking the first amended complaint.



On August 18, 2005, Objector and his counsel filed a motion to disqualify the trial court based on a peremptory challenge and filed a motion to disqualify for cause on October 17, 2005, both of which were ultimately denied and/or struck by the trial court.  On or about October 13, 2005 Objector filed a motion to intervene and on or about October 19, 2005 filed both a motion to take discovery relating to the adequacy of plaintiffs as derivative representatives and a motion to dissolve the anti-suit injunction in connection with settlement.  On November 14, 2005, Plaintiffs filed a Motion For Further Findings pursuant to the remand ordered by the Court of Appeals. Defendants joined in that motion.  On February 3, 2006, the Court held a hearing on the various matters pending before it and has ordered additional briefing from the parties and Objector.



The 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.



AIMCO Properties L.P. and NHP Management Company, both affiliates of the 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, filed in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, 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 excess of 40 hours in a week.
In June 2005 the Court conditionally certified the collective action on both the on-call and overtime issues, which allows the plaintiffs to provide notice of the collective action to all non-exempt maintenance workers from August 7, 2000 through the present.  Notices have been sent out to all current and former hourly maintenance workers. The opt-in period has not yet closed. Defendants will have the opportunity to move to decertify the collective action.
Because the court denied plaintiffs motion to certify state subclasses, on September 26, 2005, the plaintiffs filed a class action with the same allegations in the Superior Court of California (Contra Costa County), and on November 5, 2005 in Montgomery County Maryland Circuit Court.  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 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 property 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, and potential fines or penalties imposed by such agencies in connection therewith, 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, operation and management of its property, the Partnership could potentially be liable for environmental liabilities or costs associated with its property.



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 General Partner have implemented a national policy and procedures to prevent or eliminate mold from its properties and the General Partner believes that these measures will 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 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



On December 19, 2005, AIMCO announced that the Central Regional Office of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) has informed AIMCO that its investigation has been recommended for termination and no enforcement action has been recommended to the Commission regarding AIMCO.

(a)

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Partnerships management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the 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 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.

Item 12.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions



The Partnership has no employees and depends on the 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 General Partner receive 5% of gross receipts from the Partnership's property as compensation for providing property management services. The Partnership paid to such affiliates approximately $65,000 and $69,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, which is included in operating expenses.



Affiliates of the General Partner charged the Partnership reimbursement of accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately $124,000 and $72,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expenses and gain on sale of discontinued operations.  The portion of these reimbursements included in gain on sale of discontinued operations are fees related to construction management services provided by an affiliate of the General Partner of approximately $53,000 for 2005 and $14,000 for 2004. At December 31, 2005, approximately $99,000 of reimbursements for services was accrued by the Partnership and is included in due to affiliates.



The Partnership Agreement provides for a fee equal to 9% of distributable cash from operations (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) received by the limited partners to be paid to the General Partner for executive and administrative management services. There were no such fees for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004.



In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, an affiliate of the General Partner loaned the Partnership approximately $92,000 during the year ended December 31, 2004 to fund capital projects and accounts payable and approximately $358,000 during the year ended December 31, 2005 to fund accounts payable at the Partnerships sole property. The Partnership repaid approximately $18,000 of such advances during 2005. There were no payments made during 2004. Interest accrues at the prime rate plus 2% (9.25% at December 31, 2005). Interest expense was approximately $19,000 and less than $1,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. At December 31, 2005, approximately $452,000, including accrued interest, was outstanding and is included in due to affiliates.



The Partnership insured its property 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, general liability and vehicle liability. The Partnership insured its property above the AIMCO limits through insurance policies obtained by AIMCO from insurers unaffiliated with the General Partner. During the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $22,000 and $20,000, respectively, for insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration.



In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partner interest in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 63,163 "A" and 40,151 "B" Units of Depository Receipts ("Units") in the Partnership representing 65.60% and 53.43% of the outstanding "A" and "B" Units, respectively, at December 31, 2005. A number of these units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. 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 General Partner. As a result of its ownership of 65.60% and 53.43% of the outstanding "A" and "B" Units, respectively, AIMCO and its affiliates are in a position to control all such voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. Although the General Partner owes fiduciary duties to the limited partners of the Partnership, the General Partner also owes fiduciary duties to AIMCO as its sole stockholder. As a result, the duties of the General Partner, as general partner, to the Partnership and its limited partners may come into conflict with the duties of the General Partner to AIMCO as its sole stockholder.
