NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note A – Basis of Presentation

As of December 31, 2008, Consolidated Capital Growth Fund (the “Partnership” or “Registrant”) adopted the liquidation basis of accounting due to the sale of its remaining investment property (as discussed in “Note D – Disposition of Investment Property”). The General Partner responsible for management of the Partnership’s business is ConCap Equities, Inc. (the “General Partner”). The General Partner is a wholly owned subsidiary of Apartment Investment and Management Company ("AIMCO"), a publicly traded real estate investment trust.

As a result of the decision to liquidate the Partnership, the Partnership changed its basis of accounting for its financial statements at December 31, 2008 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 financial statements.

The General Partner estimates that the liquidation process will be completed by December 31, 2009. 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.

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Consolidated Capital Growth Fund have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of the General Partner, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, the accompanying statement of discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2008 reflects the operations of The Lakes Apartments as income from discontinued operations as a result of the property’s sale to a third party on December 29, 2008 (as discussed in “Note D”).

Note B – Adjustment to Liquidation Basis of Accounting

At December 31, 2008, 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 amounts. The net adjustment required to convert to the liquidation basis of accounting was a decrease in net assets of approximately $41,000. The net adjustment is summarized as follows:

	Decrease in
	Net Assets
	(in thousands)
Adjustment of other assets and liabilities, net	$ (41)

Note C – 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 certain payments to affiliates for services and reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by affiliates on behalf of the Partnership.

Affiliates of the General Partner received 5% of gross receipts from the Partnership's property as compensation for providing property management services. The Partnership paid to such affiliates approximately $54,000 for thethree months ended March 31, 2008, which is included in operating expenses.

An affiliate of the General Partner charged the Partnership for reimbursement of accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately $39,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, which was included in general and administrative expenses and investment property. The portion of these reimbursements included in investment property for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was construction management services provided by an affiliate of the General Partner of approximately $10,000.

The Partnership Agreement provides for a fee equal to 9% of the total operating distributions made to the limited partners from "cash available for distribution" (as defined in the Agreement) to be paid to the General Partner for executive and administrative management services. No fees were paid for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 as there were no operating distributions.

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. The Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $73,000 for insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration during the year ended December 31, 2008.

Note D - Disposition of Investment Property

On December 29, 2008, the Partnership sold its sole investment property, The Lakes Apartments, to a third party. The total sales price for The Lakes Apartments was approximately $24,425,000. The net proceeds realized by the Partnership were approximately $24,129,000 after payment of closing costs. The Partnership used approximately $15,700,000 to repay the mortgage encumbering the property. The Partnership realized a gain of approximately $20,205,000 as a result of the sale. In addition, the Partnership recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $82,000 as a result of the write off of unamortized loan costs.

Note E - Contingencies

As previously disclosed, AIMCO Properties, L.P. and NHP Management Company, both affiliates of the General Partner, were defendants in a lawsuit, filed as a collective action in August 2003 in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, alleging that they willfully violated the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”) by failing to pay maintenance workers overtime for time worked in excess of 40 hours per week (“overtime claims”). The plaintiffs also contended that AIMCO Properties, L.P. and NHP Management Company failed to compensate maintenance workers for time that they were required to be "on-call" (“on-call claims”). In March 2007, the court in the District of Columbia decertified the collective action. In July 2007, plaintiffs’ counsel filed individual cases in Federal court in 22 jurisdictions. In the second quarter of 2008, AIMCO Properties, L.P. settled the overtime cases involving 652 plaintiffs and established a framework for resolving the 88 remaining “on-call” claims and the attorneys’ fees claimed by plaintiffs’ counsel. As a result, the lawsuits asserted in the 22 Federal courts will bedismissed. During the fourth quarter of 2008, the Partnership paid approximately $1,000 for settlement amounts for alleged unpaid overtime to employees who had worked at the Partnership’s investment properties. At this time, the 88 remaining “on-call” claims and the attorneys’ fees claimed by plaintiffs’ counsel are not resolved. The General Partner is uncertain as to the amount of any additional loss that may be allocable to the Partnership. Therefore, the Partnership cannot estimate whether any additional loss will occur or a potential range of loss.

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.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements in certain circumstances. Certain information included in this Quarterly Report contains or may contain information that is forward-looking, including, without limitation, statements regarding the Partnership’s future financial performance and the effect of government regulations. Actual results may differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements and, in addition, will be affected by a variety of risks and factors some of which are beyond the Partnership’s control including, without limitation: national and local economic conditions; the general level of interest rates; the terms of governmental regulations that affect the Partnership and interpretations of those regulations; litigation, including costs associated with prosecuting or defending claims and any adverse outcomes; and possible environmental liabilities, including costs, fines or penalties that may be incurred due to necessary remediation of contamination of properties previously owned by the Partnership. Readers should carefully review the Partnership’s financial statements and the notes thereto, as well as the other documents the Partnership files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Results of Operations

As of December 31, 2008, the Partnership adopted the liquidation basis of accounting due to the sale of its remaining investment property.

During the three months ended March 31, 2009, net assets in liquidation decreased by approximately $8,140,000. The decrease in net assets in liquidation is primarily due to distributions to partners, and to a lesser extent, costs incurred during the liquidation period and the write off of uncollectible receivables.

The statement of net assets in liquidation as of March 31, 2009 includes approximately $29,000 of costs that the General Partner estimates will be incurred during the period of liquidation, based on the assumption that the liquidation process will be completed by December 31, 2009. 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 December 31, 2009, the projected liquidation date.

The Partnership distributed the following amounts during 2009 and 2008 (in thousands, except per unit data):


	Three Months Ended	Per Limited	Three Months Ended	Per Limited
	March 31,	Partnership	March 31,	Partnership
	2009	Unit	2008	Unit

Sale (1)	$8,100	$141.61	$ --	$ --

(1) Distribution consists of proceeds from the December 2008 sale of The Lakes Apartments.

The Partnership's cash available for distribution will be reviewed on a quarterly basis. Future cash distributions will depend on the amount of cash remaining after fully liquidating the Partnership.

Other

In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partner interest in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 33,133.75 limited partnership units (the "Units") in the Partnership representing 67.36% of the outstanding Units at March 31, 2009. A number of these Units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, unit holders 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 67.36% of the outstanding Units, 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.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require the Partnership to make estimates and assumptions. The Partnership believes that of its significant accounting policies, the following may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity.

Impairment of Long-Lived Asset

Investment property was recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation, unless the carrying amount of the asset was not recoverable. If events or circumstances indicated that the carrying amount of the property would not be recoverable, the Partnership made an assessment of its recoverability by comparing the carrying amount to the Partnership’s estimate of the undiscounted future cash flows, excluding interest charges, of the property. If the carrying amount exceeded the aggregate undiscounted future cash flows, the Partnership recognized an impairment loss to the extent the carrying amount exceeded the estimated fair value of the property.

Real property investment was subject to varying degrees of risk. Several factors may have adversely affected the economic performance and value of the Partnership’s investment property. These factors included, but were not limited to, general economic climate; competition from other apartment communities and other housing options; local conditions, such as loss of jobs or an increase in the supply of apartments that might adversely affect apartment occupancy or rental rates; changes in governmental regulations and the related cost of compliance; increases in operating costs (including real estate taxes) due to inflation and other factors,which may not be offset by increased rents; and changes in tax laws and housing laws, including the enactment of rent control laws or other laws regulating multi-family housing. Any adverse changes in these factors could have caused impairment of the Partnership’s asset.

Revenue Recognition

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, was 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.

ITEM 4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(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 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.

(b) Changes inInternal Control Over Financial Reporting.

There has been no change in the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
