Annual Report (Form 10-K), fiscal year 1994

Item 1. Business
General Development of Business
Hutton/ConAm Realty Investors 4 (the "Registrant" or the "Partnership") is a California limited partnership of which RI 3-4 Real Estate Services Inc. ("RI 3-4 Services," formerly Hutton Real Estate Services VIII, Inc.), a Delaware corporation, and ConAm Property Services IV, Ltd., a California limited partnership ("ConAm Services"), are the general partners (together, the "General Partners").
Commencing January 13, 1984, the Registrant began offering through E.F. Hutton & Company Inc., an affiliate of the Registrant ("Hutton"), up to a maximum of 130,000 units of limited partnership interest (the "Units") at $500 per Unit. Investors who purchased the Units (the "Limited Partners") are not required to make any additional capital contributions. The Units were registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), under Registration Statement No. 2-84863, which Registration Statement was declared effective on January 13, 1984. The offering of Units was terminated on October 11, 1984. Upon termination of the offering, the Registrant had accepted subscriptions for 128,110 Units for an aggregate of $64,055,000.
Narrative Description of Business
The Registrant is engaged in the business of acquiring, operating and holding for investment multifamily residential properties, which by virtue of their location and design and the nature of the local real estate market have the potential for capital appreciation and generation of current income. As of December 31, 1994, all of the proceeds available for investment in real estate were invested in three residential apartment properties and three limited partnerships, each of which owns a specified property. Funds held as a working capital reserve are invested in unaffiliated money market funds or other highly liquid short-term investments where there is appropriate safety of principal in accordance with the Registrant's investment objectives and policies.
The Registrant's principal investment objectives with respect to its interests in real property are:
(1)	capital appreciation;
(2) distributions of net cash from operations attributable to rental income; and
(3)	preservation and protection of capital.
Distributions of net cash from operations will be the Registrant's objective during its operational phase, while preservation and appreciation of capital will be the Registrant's long-term objectives. The attainment of the Registrant's objectives will depend on many factors, including future economic conditions in the United States as a whole and, in particular, in the localities in which the Registrant's properties are located, especially with regard to achievement of capital appreciation.
From time to time the Registrant expects to sell its real property investments taking into consideration such factors as the amount of appreciation in value, if any, to be realized and the possible risks of continued ownership. In consideration of these factors and improving market conditions, the General Partners have begun marketing certain of the properties for sale and recently entered into preliminary negotiations with an institutional buyer to sell Trails at Meadowlakes and Cypress Lakes. There can be no assurance that a sale will be completed or that any particular price for the properties can be obtained. No property will be sold, financed or refinanced by the Registrant without the agreement of both General Partners. Proceeds from any future sale, financing or refinancing of the properties will not be reinvested and may be distributed to the Limited Partners and the General Partners (sometimes referred to together herein as the "Partners"), so that the Registrant will, in effect, be self-liquidating. If deemed necessary, the Registrant may retain a portion of the proceeds from any sale, financing or refinancing as capital reserves. As partial payment for properties sold, the Registrant may receive purchase money obligations secured by mortgages or deeds of trust. In such cases, the amount of such obligations will not be included in Net Proceeds From Sale or Refinancing (distributable to the Partners) until and only to the extent the obligations are realized in cash, sold or otherwise liquidated.
Since inception, the Registrant has acquired six residential apartment complexes (collectively, the "Properties"), either directly or through investments in limited partnerships or joint ventures. As of December 31, 1994, the Registrant had interests in the Properties as follows: (1) Trails at Meadowlakes, a 189-unit apartment complex located in Deerfield Beach, Florida; (2) Pelican Landing, a 204-unit apartment complex located in Clearwater, Florida; (3) Village at the Foothills II, a 120-unit apartment complex located in Tucson, Arizona; (4) River Hill Apartments, a 192-unit apartment complex located in the Las Colinas area of Irving, Texas; (5) Shadowood Village, a 110-unit apartment complex located in Jacksonville, Florida; and (6) Cypress Lakes Apartments, a 176-unit apartment complex located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. See Item 2



Item 2. Properties
Below is a description of the Properties and a discussion of current market conditions in each of the areas where the Properties are located. For information on the purchase of the Properties, reference is made to Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements on page 8 of the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1994, which is filed as an exhibit under Item 14. Appraised values of the Partnership's real estate investments are incorporated by reference to page 14 of the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders. Average occupancy rates at each property are incorporated by reference to page 2 of the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders.
River Hill Apartments - Irving, Texas Situated approximately 15 miles northwest of Dallas, this 192-unit apartment complex is located in the Las Colinas area of Irving. The local apartment market, although competitive, evidenced improvement during 1994, and many area complexes, including River Hill, were able to increase rental rates during the year, despite the lease-up of several recently constructed properties. The Las Colinas submarket reported average occupancy of 96% as of the third quarter of 1994, up from 93% in 1993, and area apartment complexes averaged rental rate increases of 2% during 1994. Only 40 new apartment units were constructed during 1994, however, two projects are nearing completion which will add 763 units to the market, and several other complexes are in the planning stages. Absorption in this attractive area remains the highest among Dallas submarkets and is likely to temper the increased competition from this new supply.
Shadowood Village - Jacksonville, Florida This 110-unit apartment complex is situated in southeast Jacksonville, in the Baymeadows/Deerwood community. Significant prior period overbuilding has left the Baymeadows/Deerwood area highly competitive for rental properties. Although market conditions have improved steadily over the past two years, many complexes continue to offer rental concessions to attract tenants. A survey of the Baymeadows/Deerwood submarket indicated average occupancy of area apartments has climbed to 93% as of the second quarter of 1994, and average rental rates had increased approximately 5% from a year earlier. The Jacksonville market is experiencing a slow yet steady recovery, witnessed by the rising average occupancy rate. New construction, however, has remained limited, with no new permits issued in 1992 or 1993, and only 370 units permitted in 1994.
Village at the Foothills II - Tucson, Arizona This 120-unit apartment community is situated in the prestigious "foothills" section of Tucson. Tucson continues to experience brisk population and job growth, which have fueled strong demand for apartment housing in recent years. A local survey of metropolitan Tucson conducted in the fourth quarter of 1994 showed an average occupancy rate of 96% among multifamily properties with five or more units. While construction of new units has been minimal during the past four years, eight new complexes commenced construction in 1994. When completed, these projects can be expected to compete with Village at the Foothills II.
Cypress Lakes Apartments - Fort Lauderdale, Florida This 176-unit community is located in the northwest section of Fort Lauderdale, in the Pompano Beach submarket. Market conditions for multi-family properties in this area remain strong, with high occupancies and average rental rates among the highest in Broward County. A local survey of the Pompano Beach submarket reported average occupancy of 98% as of August 1994, and rental rate increases averaging 4% from August 1993 to August 1994. Construction of new units has remained sparse in recent years, with no new units permitted in this submarket in 1994, and little room for future development.
Trails at Meadowlakes - Deerfield Beach, Florida Situated eight miles north of Fort Lauderdale, this 189-unit apartment complex is located in the North Pompano/Deerfield Beach submarket. Rental conditions in this submarket remain strong, with average occupancy of 96% as of August 1994, according to a local survey. Area rental rates increased significantly in 1993 following Hurricane Andrew, but slowed in 1994 as the market adjusted and construction of new units began. Leasing has begun at one nearby project under construction containing 212 units, which competes directly with the Trails at Meadow Lakes. Area job and population growth, however, are expected to keep pace with the new supply.
Pelican Landing - Clearwater, Florida This 204-unit apartment complex is situated in southeast Clearwater in the Tampa Bay Area. The Clearwater apartment market remains strong, with an overall average occupancy of 95% during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1994. High occupancy has permitted increases in rental rates at many complexes, and the limited availability of vacant land for new construction has constrained new development in the area.
One of the Partnership's properties is encumbered by mortgage loans. See Note 5 to the consolidated Financial Statements for a description of such mortgage financing.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
During the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 1994, no matter was submitted to a vote of security holders through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise.
PART II
Item 5.

Item 5. Market for the Partnership's Limited Partnership Units and Related Security Holder Matters
As of December 31, 1994, the number of Unitholders of record was 7,123.
No established public trading market has developed for the Units, and it is not anticipated that such a market will develop in the future.
Distributions of Net Cash Flow From Operations, when made, are paid on a quarterly basis, with distributions generally occurring approximately 45 days after the end of each quarter. Such distributions have been made primarily from net operating income with respect to the Registrant's investment in the Properties and from interest on short-term investments, and partially from excess cash reserves. For a full accounting of the cash distributions paid to the Limited Partners during the past two years, reference is made to page 3 of the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1994, which is filed as an exhibit under Item 14.
Quarterly cash distributions to Limited Partners were suspended commencing with the third quarter of 1994 in consideration of the upcoming maturity of the note secured by a mortgage on the Trails at Meadow Lakes (see Item 7 of this report for a discussion of the maturing mortgage). It is likely that distributions will remain suspended until the debt is repaid from sales proceeds or Partnership cash reserves. Once the debt is resolved, the General Partners will evaluate the Partnership's cash flow from operations, cash reserves and future cash requirements to determine when and at what level cash distributions may be reinstated.

Item 7.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At December 31, 1994, the Partnership had cash of $3,234,383 which was invested in unaffiliated money market funds, compared to cash of $2,201,276 at December 31, 1993. The increase reflects higher net cash from operations and the suspension of cash distributions commencing with the third quarter of 1994. The Partnership expects sufficient cash flow to be generated from operations to meet its current operating expenses.
The promissory note secured by a mortgage on the Trails at Meadowlakes matures on July 19, 1995, at which time the Partnership will be required to pay $5,025,984 to the mortgage lender. The General Partners have determined that refinancing the property's mortgage loan is not an attractive option at this time, given rising interest rates and the high expenses associated with a refinancing. Furthermore, as a result of improving market conditions, the General Partners have begun marketing some of the properties, and recently entered into preliminary negotiations with an institutional buyer to sell Trails at Meadowlakes and Cypress Lakes. There is no assurance that a sale will be completed or that any particular price for the properties can be obtained. Should a sale of one or both properties close prior to the July 19th maturity date, net sale proceed will be first be applied to repay the loan. The balance will be distributed to the Partners as a return of capital. In addition, afte r the sale closes, the General partners expect to make a special cash distribution from excess cash reserves.
The General Partners suspended the payment of cash distributions commencing with the third quarter of 1994 to build cash reserves in the event the loan has to be partially repaid at maturity. After the loan issue is resolved, the General Partners will reevaluate the Partnership's reserve requirements and determine at what level cash distributions can be reinstated.
Results of Operations
1994 versus 1993
Partnership operations for the year ended December 31, 1994 resulted in net income of $984,628, compared with net income of $723,510 for the year ended December 31, 1993. After adding back depreciation, a non-cash expense, and subtracting mortgage amortization, operations generated cash flow of $2,979,656 and $2,719,425, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993. The increase in net income and cash flow is primarily attributable to an increase in rental income.
Rental income for the year ended December 31, 1994 was $7,552,784, compared with $7,249,001 for the year ended December 31, 1993. The 4% increase in 1994 reflects higher revenues at all six properties due to rental rate increases instituted during the past year. Interest income for the year ended December 31, 1994 was $79,860, compared with $50,212 in 1993. The increase in 1994 is due primarily to higher Partnership cash balances and higher interest rates.
Property operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 1994 were $3,927,435, compared with $3,860,345 in 1993. The increase is primarily attributable to expenditures related to utilities and general repairs at the properties. Total expenses for the year ended December 31, 1994 were $6,648,016, compared with $6,575,703 for 1993. All components of total expenses remained relatively in line with 1993 levels.
1993 versus 1992
Partnership operations for the year ended December 31, 1993 resulted in net income of $723,510, compared with net income of $718,725 for the year ended December 31, 1992. After adding back depreciation, a non-cash expense, and subtracting mortgage amortization, operations generated cash flow of $2,719,425 and $2,716,005, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 1993 and 1992. Both net income and cash flow were largely unchanged from 1992, as an increase in rental income was offset by higher operating expenses.
Rental income for the year ended December 31, 1993 was $7,249,001, compared with $6,968,820 for 1992. The 4% increase in rental income reflects higher rental revenues at all properties, particularly River Hill and Cypress Lakes, due primarily to increased average occupancy, increased rental rates and the reduced use of rental concessions in 1993.
Property operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 1993 were $3,860,345, compared with $3,540,118 in 1992. The increase is primarily attributable to routine carpet and appliance replacement, as well as upgraded landscaping at several properties, particularly Cypress Lakes and Pelican Landing. General and administrative expenses were $166,066 for the year ended December 31, 1993, compared with $210,939 for 1992. The decrease in 1993 is primarily attributable to lower postage, mailing and printing costs.
The average occupancy levels at each of the properties for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992 were as follows:
Twelve Months Ended December 31, Property 1994 1993 1992 Trails at Meadowlakes 96% 96% 96% Pelican Landing 97% 96% 97% Cypress Lakes Apartments 96% 97% 96% Village at the Foothills II 95% 95% 95% River Hill Apartments 96% 96% 96% Shadowood Village 96% 96% 95%

Certain Matters Involving Affiliates of RI 3-4 Services
On January 13, 1988, SLBP Acquisition Corp. (the "Purchaser"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shearson Lehman Brothers Holding Inc., acquired the right to purchase 29,610,000 shares of stock of the Hutton Group pursuant to a cash tender offer commenced on December 7, 1987. On January 21, 1988, the Purchaser assigned its right to purchase the shares so accepted to Shearson. Shearson purchased the 29,610,000 shares which constituted approximately 90% of the outstanding shares of the Hutton Group. Shearson has subsequently acquired the remaining shares of the Hutton Group. Thus, the Hutton Group is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shearson.
On July 31, 1993, Shearson sold certain of its domestic retail brokerage and asset management businesses to Smith Barney. Subsequent to this sale, Shearson changed its name to "Lehman Brothers Inc." The transaction did not affect the ownership of the Partnership's General Partners. However, the assets acquired by Smith Barney included the name "Hutton." Consequently, the Hutton Real Estate Services general partner changed its name to "RI 3-4 Real Estate Services, Inc." and the Hutton Group changed its name to "LB I Group Inc." to delete any references to "Hutton."

Presented for your review is the 1994 Annual Report for Hutton/ConAm Realty Investors 4. In this report, we review Partnership operations and discuss general market conditions affecting the Partnership's properties. We have also included a performance summary which addresses operating results at each of the properties and financial highlights for the year.
As we discussed in the Partnership's third quarter report, the loan secured by a mortgage on the Trails at Meadowlakes matures on July 19, 1995, at which time the Partnership will be required to pay $5,025,984 to the mortgage lender. The General Partners have determined that refinancing the property's mortgage loan is not an attractive option at this time, given rising interest rates and the high expenses associated with a refinancing. Furthermore, as a result of improving market conditions, the General Partners have begun marketing some of the properties, and recently entered into preliminary negotiations with an institutional buyer to sell Trails at Meadowlakes and Cypress Lakes. There can be no assurance, however, that a sale will be completed or that any particular price for the properties can be obtained. Should a sale of one or both properties close prior to the July 19th maturity date, net sale proceeds will first be applied to repay the loan. The balance will be distributed to the Partners as a return of capital. In addition, after the sale closes, the General Partners expect to make a special cash distribution from excess cash reserves. As you know, cash distributions were suspended in the third quarter of 1994 to build cash reserves in the event the loan has to be partially repaid at maturity. After the loan issue is resolved, the General Partners will reevaluate the Partnership's reserve requirements and determine at what level cash distributions can be reinstated.
Operations Overview The past year has witnessed a solid recovery of multifamily housing in most regions of the country. The improving economy and limited new construction in most areas have boosted occupancy levels and rental rates, while rising mortgage rates have curtailed renters from purchasing condominiums and single family homes. These favorable conditions are especially prevalent in the sunbelt states, which continue to benefit from long-term population growth.
Operating results at the Partnership's properties reflect these strengthening market conditions. Occupancy rates remained at or above 95% during 1994, and all of the properties were able to institute rental rate increases on lease renewals resulting in a 4% increase in rental income. While construction of new units has picked up in several areas, positive demographic trends, especially in the Florida markets, are expected to keep pace with new supply. The General Partners intend to closely monitor these conditions and will continue to make select capital improvements and age-related repairs to keep the Partnership's properties competitive with newer units.
Summary The healthy market conditions and strong performance of the Partnership's properties during 1994 bode well for their eventual sale. As discussed above, the General Partners have entered into preliminary negotiations to sell two of the properties. However, there can be no assurance that a sale of these properties will be completed. In the interim, the General Partners will continue to effectively manage the Partnership's properties by seeking to maintain high occupancy levels and implementing rental rate increases as conditions permit. We will keep you updated on developments affecting your investment in future reports.
Very truly yours, 		 	 					 Paul L. Abbott Daniel J. Epstein President President RI 3-4 Real Estate Services, Inc.	Continental American Development Inc. General Partner of ConAm Property Services IV, Ltd. March 29, 1995
Performance Summary
Cypress Lakes Apartments, Fort Lauderdale, Florida This 176-unit complex is located in the northwest section of Fort Lauderdale. Occupancy remained high at Cypress Lakes throughout 1994, averaging 96% for the year, slightly above the local average of 95%. Improving market conditions allowed rental rate increases on all turnovers and lease renewals during the year, resulting in a 5% increase in rental income. Although the Fort Lauderdale apartment market remains competitive, the area's strong population growth and limited new construction are expected to sustain strong demand for rental properties. Property improvements at Cypress Lakes during the year included roof repairs and replacement of carpets and fixtures in selected units.
Pelican Landing, Clearwater, Florida Situated in southeast Clearwater, on Florida's Gulf Coast in the Tampa Bay area, this 204-unit complex recorded average occupancy of 97% in 1994. Rental income increased 5% from 1993, despite competition from two recently constructed complexes in the area, reflecting the success of an aggressive marketing campaign and a corporate outreach program. Property improvements consisted primarily of carpet and appliance replacement in selected units.
River Hill Apartments, Irving, Texas This 192-unit apartment complex is located in the Las Colinas area of Irving, approximately 15 miles northwest of Dallas. The local apartment market, although competitive, evidenced steady improvement and many area complexes, including River Hill, were able to increase rental rates on renewals during the year. The increases were achieved despite increased competition resulting from the lease-up of recently constructed properties. Average occupancy at River Hill was 96% in 1994, unchanged from 1993, while rental income increased 4%. Property expenditures in 1994 consisted of costs associated with the refurbishment of units as they are re-leased as well as ongoing stairwell repairs.
Shadowood Village, Jacksonville, Florida This 110-unit apartment complex is located in the prestigious Baymeadows/Deerwood residential area in southeast Jacksonville. Shadowood Village reported stable average occupancy of 96% in 1994. Significant prior period overbuilding has left the Baymeadows/Deerwood area highly competitive for rental properties. Although market conditions have improved steadily over the past two years, many complexes continue to offer rental concessions to attract tenants. Despite these conditions, Shadowood Village was able to increase rental rates on certain units, resulting in a 3% increase in rental income from 1993. Property improvements during the year included exterior painting and replacement of porches on selected units.
Trails at Meadowlakes, Deerfield Beach, Florida Located eight miles north of Fort Lauderdale in the Meadowlakes community, this 189-unit apartment complex achieved stable occupancy of 96% in 1994, unchanged from 1993. Rental income increased 3% from 1993, as rental rate increases were instituted on lease renewals and turnovers. Although the Fort Lauderdale apartment market remains competitive, the area's strong population growth and limited new construction are expected to sustain strong demand for rental properties. Property improvements consisted primarily of carpet replacement in selected units.
Village at the Foothills II, Tucson, Arizona This 120-unit apartment and townhouse community is located in the scenic Catalina Foothills, overlooking Tucson. The property maintained an average occupancy rate of 95% in 1994, and rental income increased 5% due to rental increases instituted on all renewals and units with high turnover. While market conditions have improved notably in Tucson in recent years, eight new apartment complexes in the Foothills region recently commenced construction which are likely to provide strong competition when completed. Property improvements in 1994 included carpet replacement and shower repairs in selected units, as well as roof repairs.

See accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992
1. Organization Hutton/ConAm Realty Investors 4 (the "Partnership") was organized as a limited partnership under the laws of the State of California pursuant to a Certificate and Agreement of Limited Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement") dated May 10, 1984. The Partnership was formed for the purpose of acquiring and operating certain types of residential real estate. The general partners of the Partnership are RI 3-4 Real Estate Services, Inc., an affiliate of Lehman Brothers (see below), and ConAm Property Services IV, Ltd. ("ConAm"), an affiliate of Continental American Properties, Ltd (the "General Partners"). The Partnership will continue until December 31, 2010 unless sooner terminated pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement.
On July 31, 1993, Shearson Lehman Brothers Inc. sold certain of its domestic retail brokerage and asset management business to Smith Barney, Harris Upham & Co. Incorporated ("Smith Barney"). Subsequent to the sale, Shearson Lehman Brothers Inc. changed its name to Lehman Brothers Inc. ("Lehman Brothers"). The transaction did not affect the ownership of the General Partners. However, the assets acquired by Smith Barney included the name "Hutton". Consequently, effective October 8, 1993, the Hutton Real Estate Services VIII, Inc. General Partner changed its name to RI 3-4 Real Estate Services, Inc.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Financial Statements The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Partnership and its affiliated ventures. The effect of transactions between the Partnership and its ventures have been eliminated in consolidation.
Real Estate Investments Real estate investments are recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value and include the initial purchase price of the property, legal fees, acquisition and closing costs.
Leases are accounted for under the operating method. Under this method, revenue is recognized as rentals are earned and expenses (including depreciation) are charged to operations when incurred. Leases are generally for terms of one year or less.
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method based upon the estimated useful lives of the properties. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Significant betterments and improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.
For assets sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in income for the period.
Offering Costs Costs relating to the sale of limited partnership units were deferred during the offering period and charged to the limited partners' capital accounts upon the consummation of the public offering.
Income Taxes No provision for income taxes has been made in the financial statements since income, losses and tax credits are passed through to the individual partners.
Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash equivalents consist of short-term highly liquid investments which have maturities of three months or less from the date of issuance. Cash and cash equivalents include security deposits of $232,692 and $221,816 at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively, restricted under certain state statutes.
Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments which potentially subject the Partnership to a concentration of credit risk principally consist of cash and cash equivalents in excess of the financial institutions' insurance limits. The Partnership invests available cash with high credit quality financial institutions.
3. The Partnership Agreement The Partnership Agreement provides that net cash from operations, as defined, will be distributed quarterly, 90% to the limited partners and 10% to the General Partners.
Net loss and all depreciation for any fiscal year will be allocated 99% to the limited partners and 1% to the General Partners.
Net income before depreciation will be allocated as follows:
(a) To the extent that net income before depreciation does not exceed the amount of net cash from operations distributable to the partners with respect to such fiscal year, net income before depreciation shall be allocated among the partners, pro rata in accordance with the amount of net cash from operations distributable to each partner with respect to such fiscal year to the extent thereof; and
(b) To the extent that net income before depreciation exceeds the amount of net cash from operations distributable to the partners with respect to such fiscal year, such excess shall be allocated (1) first, 100% to the General Partners, pro rata, in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the General Partners' deficits, if any, in their capital accounts, over an amount equal to 1% of the aggregate capital contributions to the Partnership as reduced by the amount of the General Partners' capital contributions, and (2) second, 99% to the limited partners and 1% to the General Partners. For the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, net income before depreciation exceeded net cash from operations distributable to the partners by $1,738,298 and $193,155, respectively.
For the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, net income before depreciation exceeded net cash from operations distributable to the partners by $1,738,298 and $193,155, respectively. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement and (b)(1) above, $1,036,218 and $193,155 of this excess was allocated to the General Partners for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
Net proceeds from sales or refinancing will be distributed 100% to the limited partners until each limited partner has received an amount equal to his adjusted capital value (as defined) and an annual, cumulative 7% return thereon. The balance, if any, will be distributed 85% to the limited partners and 15% to the General Partners. Generally, all gain from sales will be allocated in the same manner as net proceeds from sales or refinancing.
4. Real Estate Investments Real estate investments consist of six residential apartment complexes acquired either directly or through investments in joint ventures and limited partnerships as follows:
Property Apartment Date Purchase Name Units Location Aquired Price
Trails at Meadowlakes 189 Deerfield Beach, FL 11/14/84 $10,590,925
Pelican Landing 204 Clearwater, FL 3/28/85 12,179,329
Village at the Foothills II 120 Tucson, AZ 5/30/85 7,216,400
River Hill Apartments 192 Irving, TX 6/12/85 11,488,015
Shadowood Village 110 Jacksonville, FL 7/3/86 5,400,000
Cypress Lake Apartments 176 Ft. Lauderdale, FL 3/11/87 10,337,100
Trails at Meadowlakes, Pelican Landing and Cypress Lake Apartments were acquired directly by the Partnership. Village at the Foothills II was acquired through a joint venture with an unaffiliated developer and River Hill Apartments and Shadowood Village were acquired through limited partnerships with unaffiliated developers. To each limited partnership and joint venture, the Partnership assigned its rights to acquire the above properties and contributed cash equal to the purchase price of the properties. The Partnership's partners did not make initial capital contributions to these limited partnerships and joint ventures.
On July 1, 1992, a Settlement Agreement was executed by and among the Partnership and Hutton/ConAm Realty Investors 81, Hutton/ConAm Realty Investors 2, Hutton/ConAm Realty Investors 3, and Hutton/ConAm Realty Investors 5, as the Managing Joint Venturers, and Epoch Properties, Inc., James H. Pugh, Jr. and John H. McClintock, Jr., as the Epoch Joint Venturers (the Epoch Joint Venturers being collectively referred to herein as "Epoch"), the Partnership's partners and co-venturers in Village at the Foothills (Phase II) and Shadowood Village Apartments.
Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Partnership paid $14,000 to Epoch. Epoch withdrew as a partner in the respective Joint Ventures which owned Village at the Foothills II and Shadowood Village Apartments.

5. Mortgage Payable On July 19, 1985, the Partnership obtained financing of $5,200,000, collateralized by a first mortgage encumbering Trails at Meadowlakes. The loan had an initial term of five years bearing interest at an annual rate of 12.50% with monthly payments of interest only. The loan was extended in 1990 for an additional five years bearing interest at a rate of 10.125% with monthly principal and interest payments. The mortgage matures in July, 1995 in the amount of $5,025,984. As a result of this future maturity, the General Partners have begun marketing certain of the properties for sale and recently entered into preliminary negotiations with an institutional buyer to sell Trails at Meadowlakes and Cypress Lakes. Both properties have estimated market values in excess of the outstanding mortgage balance. There is no assurance that the sales will be completed or that any particular price for the properties can be obtained. The General Partners suspended the payment of cash distributions c ommencing with the third quarter of 1994 to build cash reserves in the event the loan has to be partially repaid at maturity.

Report of Independent Accountants
To the Partners of Hutton/ConAm Realty Investors 4:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Hutton/ConAm Realty Investors 4, a California limited partnership, and Consolidated Ventures, as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related consolidated statements of operations, partners' capital (deficit) and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements 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, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Hutton/ConAm Realty Investors 4, a California limited partnership, and Consolidated Ventures as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the Partnership's nonrecourse mortgage payable matures in July 1995. The Partnership is actively marketing the property which collateralizes the mortgage and another property which each have estimated market values in excess of the loan obligation. The Partnership is also discussing alternatives with the existing mortgage lender, the results of which cannot be determined at this time. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

(1) This represents the Partnership's share of the December 31, 1994 Appraised Values which were determined by an independent property appraisal firm.
(2) The Net Asset Value assumes a hypothetical sale at December 31, 1994 of all the Partnership's properties at a price based upon their value as a rental property as determined by an independent property appraisal firm, and the distribution of the proceeds of such sale, combined with the Partnership's cash after liquidation of the Partnership's liabilities, to the Partners.
Limited Partners should note that appraisals are only estimates of current value and actual values realizable upon sale may be significantly different. A significant factor in establishing an appraised value is the actual selling price for properties which the appraiser believes are comparable. In addition, the appraised value does not reflect the actual costs which would be incurred in selling the properties. As a result of these factors and the illiquid nature of an investment in Units of the Partnership, the variation between the appraised value of the Partnership's properties and the price at which Units of the Partnership could be sold is likely to be significant. Fiduciaries of Limited Partners which are subject to ERISA or other provisions of law requiring valuations of Units should consider all relevant factors, including, but not limited to Net Asset Value per Unit, in determining the fair market value of the investment in the Partnership for such purposes.
