                     Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
                                   (Unaudited)

                               September 30, 1999

(1) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

We prepared the accompanying condensed financial statements of American
Retirement Villas Properties II, L.P. following the requirements of the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim reporting. As permitted
under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are
normally required by generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") can be
condensed or omitted.

The financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that we
consider necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position and
operating results. These are condensed financial statements. To obtain a more
detailed understanding of our results, one should also read the financial
statements and notes in our Form 10-K for 1998, which is on file with the SEC.

The results of operations can vary during each quarter of the year. Therefore,
the results and trends in these interim financial statements may not be the same
as those for the full year.

USE OF ESTIMATES

In preparing the financial statements conforming with GAAP, we have made
estimates and assumptions that affect the following:

        -       reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the
                financial statements;

        -       disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
                the financial statements; and

        -       reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
                period.

Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(2)    TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

We have an agreement with ARV Assisted Living, Inc. ("ARV"), our Managing
General Partner, providing for payment to ARV of a property management fee of
five percent of gross revenues amounting to $264,000 and $778,000 for the three
and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1999, respectively. Additionally we
pay to ARV a partnership management fee of 10 percent of cash flow before
distributions, as defined in the Partnership Agreement, which amounted to
$49,000 and $301,000 for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30,
1999, respectively.

(3)  PURCHASE OF PREVIOUSLY LEASED COMMUNITIES

On September 27, 1996, we filed actions seeking declaratory judgements against
the landlords of the Retirement Inn of Campbell ("Campbell") and the Retirement
Inn of Sunnyvale ("Sunnyvale"). We leased the Campbell and Sunnyvale Assisted
Living Communities ("ALCs") under long-term leases, which were assumed when the
ALCs were acquired. A dispute arose as to the amount of rent due during the
10-year lease renewal periods that commenced in August 1995 for Campbell and
March 1996 for Sunnyvale.

Two other communities that we leased, the Retirement Inn of Fremont and the
Retirement Inn at Burlingame were owned by entities that are related to the
entities that owned the Campbell and Sunnyvale communities. In March 1999, we
mutually negotiated the terms of a purchase agreement involving the sale of the
landlords' fee interest in all four ALCs and the litigation was dismissed. On
March 2, 1999, we obtained a bridge loan of approximately $14.7 million, in
order us to purchase these four ALCs previously leased from our landlords based
upon mutually negotiated terms until we could secure more permanent financing.
The bridge loan was refinanced June 28, 1999 with proceeds from the Banc One
loan (Note 4).

(4) NOTE PAYABLE

On June 28, 1999, we obtained financing from Banc One on our 8 owned ALCs. The
loan is for 24 months and is secured by the various properties; in addition, ARV
Assisted Living, our managing General Partner is a guarantor on the loan for
fraud, material misrepresentation and certain covenants. As part of the loan
requirements, we created a wholly owned subsidiary Retirement Inns II, LLC. The
loan term is for 24 months with a lender option to extend for 10 years. The
interest rate is 9.15% and the payments are based upon a 25 year principal and
interest amortization schedule.

</TABLE>

The increase in assisted living community revenue is attributable to:

        -       an increase in assisted living penetration to 57% for the
                nine-month period ended September 30, 1999 compared with 53% for
                the nine-month period ended September 30, 1998;

        -       an increase in the average rate per occupied unit to $1,657 for
                the nine-month period ended September 30, 1999 as compared with
                $1,537 the nine-month period ended September 30, 1998;

        -       an increase in the average rate for our assisted living
                communities to $410 for the nine-month period ended September
                30, 1999 as compared with $368 for the nine month period ended
                September 30, 1998.

The increase in assisted living operating expenses is attributable to:

        -       staffing requirements related to increased assisted living
                services provided;

        -       increased wages of staff; and.

        -       normal operating expense increases.

The decrease in communities rent is due to the purchase, during March 1999, of
four previously leased communities.

The decrease in general and administrative and advertising expenses are
primarily due to cost cutting efforts.

The increase in depreciation and amortization is due to the four previously
leased communities that now are owned which resulted in depreciation and
amortization expense. The increase in interest expense is related to the loans
for the purchase, in March 1999, of these four previously leased communities in
addition to the Banc One financing of the eight owned properties.

</TABLE>

The increase in assisted living community revenue is attributable to:

        -       an increase in assisted living penetration to 58% for the
                three-month period ended September 30, 1999 compared with 55%
                for the three-month period ended September 30, 1998;

        -       an increase in the average rental rate per occupied unit to
                $1,687 for the three-month period ended September 30, 1999 as
                compared with $1,558 the three-month period ended September 30,
                1998; and

        -       an increase in the average rate for our assisted living
                communities to $413 for the three-month period ended September
                30, 1999 as compared with $380 for the three-month period ended
                September 30, 1998.

The increase in assisted living operating expenses is attributable to:

        -       staffing requirements related to increased assisted living
                services provided; and

        -       increased wages of staff.

Property taxes and advertising expenses remained constant between periods.

General and administrative expenses declined $0.1 million due to the
implementation of cost controls in 1999.

The increase in depreciation and amortization is due to the four previously
leased communities that now our owned which result in depreciation and
amortization expense.

The increase in interest expense is related to the loans for the purchase of
four previously leased communities during March 1999 and the financing of eight
properties in 1999.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We expect that the cash to be generated from operations of all our properties
will be adequate to pay operating expenses, make necessary capital improvements,
meet required principal reductions of debt and make quarterly distributions. On
a long-term basis, our liquidity is sustained primarily from cash flow provided
by operating activities.

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 1999, cash provided by
operating activities decreased $1.8 million to $1.7 million compared to $3.5
million for the corresponding period in 1998. The primary components of cash
provided by operating activities for the nine-months ended September 30, 1999
were:

- Net income for the nine-months ended September 30, 1999 of $1.4 million and

- Non cash charges of $1.3 million for depreciation and amortization and

- Increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $0.6 million: offset by

- Increase in other assets $1.6 million for loan fees.

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 1999, our net cash used in
investing activities increased to $15.8 million compared to $0.8 million for the
corresponding period in 1998. The increase was a result of the purchase of our
landlords' interests in four



                                       7
<PAGE>   8

previously leased assisted living communities, capital expenditures required to
qualify for the refinancing and fumigation costs of $0.3 million.

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 1999, our net cash provided by
financing activities was $15.5 million compared to cash used in financing
activities of $2.8 million for the corresponding period in 1998. The components
were:

-       A $14.7 million bridge loan which enabled us to purchase four previously
        leased communities from our landlords and

-       Refinancing of the 8 owned properties, as part of the $39.7 million Banc
        One refinancing offset by

-       Payment of the $20.9 million bridge loan and other indebtedness of
        the eight refinanced properties, and:

-       Distributions paid to partners of $18.0 million.

At September 30, 1999, of our ten assisted living communities, 8 are owned
directly, one is operated under a long-term operating lease, and one is owned
subject to a ground lease.

We are not aware of any trends, other than national economic conditions which
have had, or which may be reasonably expected to have, a material favorable or
unfavorable impact on the revenues or income from the operations or sale of
properties. We believe that if the inflation rate increases we will be able to
pass the subsequent increase in operating expenses onto the residents of the
communities by way of higher rental and assisted living rates. The
implementation of price increases is intended to lead to an increase in revenue
however, those increases may result in an initial decline in occupancy and/or a
delay in increasing occupancy. If this occurs, revenues may remain constant or
even decline.


YEAR 2000 ISSUE

We use certain computer programs that were written using two digits rather than
four to define the year. As a result, those programs may recognize a date using
"00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. In the event this occurs with
any of the Company's computer programs, a system failure or miscalculation
causing disruptions of operations could occur. Such a failure could cause the
temporary inability to process transactions, send invoices or engage in similar
normal business activities. We have developed a comprehensive program to test
and modify our information technology to address the Year 2000 issue. We believe
that our program is on schedule for completion by the end of 1999, and that
there will be no material impact on our business, results of operations,
financial position or liquidity as a result of Year 2000 issues.

Our program is focused on the following three main projects:

-       Information technology infrastructure; all hardware and software systems

-       Community maintenance; community specific systems, including alarms
        (security, fire and emergency call), elevator, phone, HVAC, and other
        systems; and

-       Third-party supplier/vendors.

For each of the above components, we have addressed or are addressing the Year
2000 issues in the following six phases:

-       Conducted inventory of systems with potential Year 2000 issues;

-       Assigned priorities to systems identified with Year 2000 issues;

-       Assessed items which may have a material effect on our operations;

-       Testing items assessed as material;

-       Replacing or repairing material non-compliant items, and;

-       Designing and implementing business continuation plans.

We have received communications from third-party providers of our administrative
services, as well as our significant suppliers of services and products to
determine the extent to which we are vulnerable to those parties' failures to
remediate their own Year 2000 issues. We do not presently believe that
third-party Year 2000 issues will have a material adverse effect on us. However,
there can be no guarantee that the systems of other companies on which our
operations or systems rely will be remedied on a timely basis or that a failure
by another company to remediate its systems in a timely manner would not have a
material adverse effect on us.





                                       8
<PAGE>   9

We have completed our conversion to an accounting system that is Year 2000
compliant. In addition, we have completed an assessment of our computer systems
and software and have substantially completed necessary modifications or
replacements to existing hardware and software and believe Year 2000 issues
should not have a material adverse effect on our operations. Testing and live
use has taken place and will continue throughout the remainder of 1999. Any
additional modifications found necessary will be made during the fourth quarter
of 1999.

We have developed the following contingency plans to cover potential business
disruptions:

-       check processing - manual processing procedures have been set up and
        manual checks are on hand at our offices.

-       food supplies for communities - in addition to the normal food supplies
        typically at the communities we will have an additional week of
        non-perishable food at the communities.

-       water supplies - supplies will be increased to include an extra 72 hours
        of water over and above the state licensing requirements.

-       medication supplies - for those clients whose medications are managed by
        the Company, we will attempt to have a 30-day supply of prescriptions at
        the communities. In addition, we will also have a second pharmacy
        available as a backup.

-       cold weather contingency - in the event of a heat outage, supplies of
        blankets have been increased.

-       waste disposal - alternate means of disposal have been arranged.

In addition to the above contingency plans we have completed Year 2000 awareness
classes at all communities for both the residents and employees. Emergency plans
have been updated to include Year 2000 issues and we are holding drills and
training for all employees. The total cost our Year 2000 plan is difficult to
estimate due to the use of employees to perform additional tasks but we estimate
the cost to be in the $0.2-$0.3 million range. Many of the costs are in
replacement of computer systems that have been capitalized in fixed assets.

Facilities, including fire and life safety, phone systems, air conditioning and
heating, elevators and other building systems are in the process of being tested
per the manufacturers' instructions. If the manufacturer is unable to provide
testing instructions, we are in the process of seeking a letter of Year 2000
compliance from the manufacturer.

We expect to successfully implement any other additional changes necessary to
address our Year 2000 issues, and do not believe that the cost of such actions
will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of
operations or liquidity.

We believe that our Year 2000 program has been substantially completed. Our
program is based on a number of factors and assumptions including the accuracy
and completeness of responses to our inquiries. Our Year 2000 plan could be
adversely impacted if any of the factors and assumptions are incorrect. The
failure to correct a material Year 2000 issue could result in an interruption in
our normal business operations.

IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES

Operating revenue from ALCs and management fees from apartment communities we
operated are the primary sources of our revenue. These properties financial
performance are affected by rental rates, which are highly dependent upon market
conditions and the competitive environment where the facilities are located.
Employee compensation is the principal cost element of property operations.
Historically, we have offset the effects of inflation on salaries and other
operating expenses by increasing rental and assisted living rates, although
there can be no assurance that this trend will continue. The implementation of
price increases is intended to lead to an increase in revenue; however, rental
rate increases may result in an initial decline in occupancy and/or a delay in
increasing occupancy. If this occurs, revenues may remain constant or even
decline.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On September 27, 1996, we filed actions seeking declaratory judgements against
the landlords of the Retirement Inn of Campbell ("Campbell") and the Retirement
Inn of Sunnyvale ("Sunnyvale"). We leased the Campbell and Sunnyvale ALCs under
long-term leases, which were assumed when the ALCs were acquired. A dispute
arose as to the amount of rent due during the 10-year lease renewal periods that
commenced in August 1995 for Campbell and March 1996 for Sunnyvale.





                                       9
<PAGE>   10

Two other communities we leased, the Retirement Inn of Fremont and the
Retirement Inn at Burlingame, were owned by entities that are related to the
entities that own the Campbell and Sunnyvale communities. We have mutually

the landlords' interests in four previously leased ALCs and the litigation has
been dismissed.
