PART I
Item 1 Business
General Development of Business and Narrative Description of Business
Registrant is a limited partnership which was formed under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act on October 10, 1986. The general partners of Registrant (the "General Partners") are Wilder Richman Resources Corporation (“WRRC”), a Delaware corporation, Real Estate Equity Partners L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and WRC-87A Corporation, a Delaware corporation.
Registrant was organized to invest in multi-family residential housing complexes (the "Complexes") by acquiring approximately 99% of the limited partnership interest (the "Operating Partnership Interest") in limited partnerships that own and operate such Complexes (the "Operating Partnerships"). Registrant invested in Carrollton X Associates Limited Partnership (the "Carrollton Partnership"), which owns Fieldpointe Apartments (“Fieldpointe”), and Columbia Westmont Associates, L.P., formerly Columbia Associates (the "Columbia Partnership"), which owned The Westmont. The Columbia Partnership sold The Westmont in July 2006 and was dissolved in 2007. WRC-87A Corporation is a special limited partner of each Operating Partnership and has certain rights in connection therewith. Pursuant to Rule 12b-23 of the Securities and Exchange Commission's General Rules and Regulations promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the description of Registrant's business set forth under the heading "Investment Objectives and Policies" at pages 20 through 30 of the prospectus, dated March 5, 1987 (the "Prospectus"), is incorporated herein by reference.
Pursuant to Registrant’s Prospectus, as supplemented on October 2, 1987, December 15, 1987 and March 29, 1988, Registrant offered up to $50 million of units of limited partnership interest in Registrant (the "Units") at an offering price of $20 per Unit. The Units were registered under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-11 (Registration No. 33-9602).
Registrant terminated the offering of Units (the "Offering") on February 29, 1988 upon raising sufficient capital from the sale of Units to fund the acquisition of the two properties specified for investment by Registrant and noted above. The Offering raised $19,687,380 from the sale of 984,369 Units. After payment of $1,378,117 of selling commissions and $1,378,116 of organization and offering expenses and acquisition fees, the net proceeds available for investment were $16,931,147. Of such net proceeds, $16,734,273 was allocated to the acquisition of investments in the Operating Partnerships (the "Operating Partnership Interests") which included investments in guaranteed investment contracts. The remaining net proceeds of $196,874 were designated as working capital to be used for operating expenses of Registrant.
Financial Information About Industry Segments
Registrant is engaged solely in the business of owning a limited partnership interest in each of the Operating Partnerships. A presentation of information regarding industry segments is not applicable and would not be material to an understanding of Registrant’s business taken as a whole. See Item 7 below for a summary of Registrant's operations.
Competition
Information regarding competition, general risks, tax risks and partnership risks is set forth under the heading "Risk Factors" at pages 37 through 48 of the Prospectus, which is incorporated herein by reference. See discussion below in Item 1A.
Compliance with Environmental Protection Provisions
Registrant is not aware of any non-compliance by the Operating Partnerships with respect to federal, state and local provisions regulating the discharge of material into the environment or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment, and is not aware of any condition that would have a material effect on the capital expenditures or competitive position of Registrant.
Employees of Registrant
Registrant employs no personnel and incurs no payroll costs. An affiliate of WRRC employs individuals who perform accounting, secretarial, transfer and other services on behalf of Registrant as are necessary in the ordinary course of business. Such individuals also perform similar services for other affiliates of WRRC.
��
Risks of Real Estate Investments and High Leverage
Registrant’s investment in the Carrollton Partnership is subject to the risks associated with multi-family rental property and real estate in general. Factors which may affect Registrant are subject to change and not in the control of Registrant. Those factors include adverse use of adjacent or neighborhood real estate, changes in the demand for or supply of competing properties, changes in state or local tax rates and assessments, increases in utility charges, unexpected expenditures for repairs and maintenance, changes in local economic conditions, changes in interest rates and the availability of financing. The occurrence of any of the foregoing risks could have a negative impact on the operating results of Fieldpointe and, in turn, may render the sale or refinancing of Fieldpointe difficult or unattractive.
Registrant’s investment in the Carrollton Partnership is highly leveraged. To the extent that revenues are not sufficient to meet operating expenses and service the mortgage of Fieldpointe, the Carrollton Partnership would be required to use reserves and any other funds available to avoid foreclosure of the subject Property. There can be no assurance that additional funds would be available to the Carrollton Partnership or Registrant, if needed. In addition, there can be no assurance that, if Fieldpointe is sold, the proceeds from a sale will be sufficient to pay the balance due on the mortgage loan or any other outstanding indebtedness to which Fieldpointe is subject.
Lack of Geographic Diversity and Acts of Terrorism
As a result of potential economic changes in the Northeast region, the financial condition of the Carrollton Partnership and its ability to satisfy operating costs and debt service and make cash flow distributions could be materially affected.
The events of September 11, 2001 have increased the risk that the operations of the Property may be adversely impacted as a result of the effect of these events on the economy in general and because the Property is located near Washington, D.C.
Risks Relating to Ownership of Units of Limited Partnership Interest of Registrant
There is no trading market for Units and there are no assurances that any market will develop. In addition, the Units may be transferred only if certain requirements are satisfied, including requirements that such transfer would not impair Registrant’s tax status for federal income tax purposes and would not be a violation of federal or state securities laws. Accordingly, limited partners may not be able to sell their Units promptly and bear the economic risk of their investment for an indefinite period of time.
At some point, Registrant’s operations (including the sale or refinancing of Fieldpointe) may generate less cash flow than taxable income, and the income, as well as the income taxes payable with respect to Registrant’s taxable income, may exceed cash flow available for distribution to the limited partners in such years. This may result in an out-of-pocket tax cost to the limited partners. In addition, a limited partner may experience taxable gain on disposition of Units or upon a disposition of Fieldpointe even though no cash is realized on the disposition; in such circumstances, the limited partners may experience an out-of-pocket tax cost.

Not applicable
Item 2 Properties
Fieldpointe, located in Frederick, Maryland, is comprised of 252 apartment units totaling approximately 235,000 square feet with approximately 500 parking spaces. On-site amenities include a clubhouse building with locker room and on-site management office, a swimming pool and two tennis courts. The apartments feature numerous amenities, including dishwashers, disposals and fireplaces.
Registrant acquired its interest as a limited partner in the Carrollton Partnership by making a capital contribution of $3,121,995. Of this amount, $1,373,039 was invested in guaranteed investment contracts and $1,748,956 was contributed upon Registrant's acquisition of the Operating Partnership Interest, including the amount due upon the achievement of sustaining rental revenue.
The mortgage financing of the Carrollton Partnership was financed from the sale of tax-exempt bonds pursuant to the terms of Section 103(b)(4)(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. The mortgage in the original amount of $10,494,100, bearing fixed 6.09% interest and maturing in February 2028, is insured by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") under Section 221(d)(4) of the National Housing Act, as amended. Under the terms of the financing, 80% of the units are permitted market rate rents and 20% of the units are to be rented to people earning no more than the low or moderate income levels within the meaning of Section 103(b)(4)(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. Fieldpointe’s occupancy rate was approximately 98% as of December 31, 2007.
The Westmont, which was owned by the Columbia Partnership and which was sold in July 2006, contains 163 apartment units, 9,415 square feet of commercial space, 46 garage parking spaces, and a penthouse with an exercise center and health club which offers exercise equipment, steam room, sauna, jacuzzi and a large terrace. The apartments feature numerous luxury amenities, including security systems, microwave ovens, dishwashers and hardwood floors.
Registrant acquired its interest as a limited partner in the Columbia Partnership by making a capital contribution of $12,571,634. Of this amount, $6,651,323 was invested in guaranteed investment contracts (which had a value of $5,610,679, including net accrued interest of $18,918, at the time of the acquisition as a result of principal amortization from the dates of purchase of such guaranteed investment contracts to the closing of the Columbia Partnership acquisition), $5,921,104 was contributed upon Registrant’s acquisition of the Operating Partnership Interest in the Columbia Partnership and $1,039,851 was contributed to the Columbia Partnership upon the achievement of sustaining rental revenue.
The Columbia Partnership’s mortgages, which were repaid or assumed by the buyer in connection with the sale of The Westmont, were refinanced in June 2000. The first mortgage, in the amount of $24.2 million, was subject to interest based on a variable low floater index with credit enhancement provided by the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) and was scheduled to mature in July 2030. The second mortgage, in the original amount of $8.55 million and payable to Freddie Mac, was subject to fixed interest at 8.07% and was scheduled to mature in July 2015. Under the terms of the refinancing, 20% of the residential units in The Westmont were to be maintained for occupancy by low or moderate income tenants through February 2009.
As of December 31, 2007, the market rental rates of Fieldpointe were approximately as follows:
Monthly Rental Rates: | | | | |
One-Bedroom | | | $805 - $830 | |
Two-Bedroom | | | $860 - $970 | |
Three-Bedroom | | | $1,075 - $1,120 | |
The low and moderate income rental rates as of December 31, 2007 for Fieldpointe fall within the ranges noted above.
Further information regarding the Complexes and Registrant's interest therein is set forth under the heading Specified Investments at pages 30 through 36 of the Prospectus, and in the supplements to the Prospectus dated October 2, 1987 and March 29, 1988.
Item 3 Legal Proceedings
Registrant is not aware of any material legal proceedings.
Item 4 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
None
PART II
Item 5 Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
Market
There is no developed public market for the purchase and sale of Units and Registrant does not anticipate that such a market will develop.
Holders
As of December 31, 2007, there were approximately 530 record holders of Units (the "Limited Partners") holding an aggregate of 984,369 Units in Registrant.
Distributions
The Agreement of Limited Partnership of Registrant (the "Partnership Agreement") provides that all Cash Available for Distribution (as defined therein) be distributed quarterly to the partners in specified proportions. In May 2006 and July 2006, Registrant made distributions of approximately 8% annualized to Unit holders of record as of March 31, 2006 and June 30, 2006, respectively. In connection with the sale of The Westmont, Registrant distributed a total of $42.10 per Unit in August 2006 and December 2006 to Unit holders of record as of July 14, 2006. The December 2006 distribution represents estimated New York State taxes that had previously been withheld from the August 2006 distribution. Because the distributions in connection with the sale of The Westmont included a full return of Unit holders’ invested capital, originally $20.00 per Unit, quarterly cash distributions were paid at an annualized rate of 8% through August 4, 2006, the date Unit holders received the return of their invested capital. On or about April 4, 2007, Registrant made a distribution to Unit holders of record as of December 31, 2006 that included the 8% annualized return from July 1, 2006 through August 4, 2006, the final distribution received by Registrant in connection with the sale of The Westmont and the remainder of the cash distribution received from the Carrollton Partnership in 2006. Including a distribution made to the Unit holders in April 2006, Registrant made a distribution to the limited partners of approximately 8% for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Item 7 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
In July 2006, the Columbia Partnership sold The Westmont for a price of $87,750,000. Registrant received distributions totaling $45,216,246 in July 2006 and an additional $81,750 in the first quarter of 2007, which represents Registrant’s share of the sales proceeds after retirement of certain mortgage obligations, payment of expenses and distributions to the general partners of the Columbia Partnership. In May 2006 and July 2006, Registrant made distributions of approximately 8% annualized to Unit holders of record as of March 31, 2006 and June 30, 2006, respectively. In connection with the sale of The Westmont, Registrant distributed an aggregate of $42.10 per Unit in August 2006 and December 2006 to the Unit holders of record as of July 14, 2006. Because the distributions in connection with the sale of The Westmont included a full return of Unit holders’ invested capital, originally $20.00 per Unit, quarterly cash distributions were paid at an annualized rate of 8% through August 4, 2006, the date Unit holders received the return of their invested capital. On or about April 4, 2007, Registrant made a distribution to Unit holders of record as of December 31, 2006 that included the 8% annualized return from July 1, 2006 through August 4, 2006, the final distribution received by Registrant in connection with the sale of The Westmont and the remainder of the cash distribution received from the Carrollton Partnership in 2006. The Columbia Partnership was dissolved in 2007. Since April 2006, the Carrollton Partnership has entered into three Agreements of Purchase and Sale to sell Fieldpointe at gross prices (before brokerage commissions and other selling costs) ranging from $25,500,000 to $27,100,000; however, on each occasion, the purchaser did not consummate the transaction. With the passage of time and apparent softening of purchase prices in the market, especially as a result of the decline in the condominium conversion market, the Carrollton general partners felt it was desirable to obtain an independent appraisal of the property. The appraisal estimated a market value for the property of approximately $24,500,000 (before any reduction for brokerage commissions and other selling costs). The Carrollton Partnership has also obtained a Phase I environmental report, an updated survey, and title commitment in contemplation of providing a due diligence package to prospective purchasers in order to provide incentive for the purchase process. Although the market has softened and has caused a considerably longer time frame to consummate a sale of Fieldpointe than originally anticipated, it remains management’s intention to sell the property. There can be no assurance that a sale will be completed. The disposition of The Westmont and the intention to dispose of Fieldpointe by their respective owners is consistent with the plan of liquidation and winding up of the business of Registrant. Following a sale of Fieldpointe, if consummated, Registrant intends to distribute the net proceeds to which it is entitled under the Carrollton Partnership’s partnership agreement to its limited and general partners, less a small reserve, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Partnership Agreement. At such time, Registrant intends to dissolve. Due to the sale of The Westmont and the potential sale of Fieldpointe and Registrant’s plans to dissolve upon such sales and the winding up of the business of Registrant, certain assets and liabilities of the Carrollton Partnership are classified as held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Accordingly, the operations of the Operating Partnerships are reported as discontinued operations for the periods presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Such classification resulted in the cessation of recording depreciation of those assets as of January 1, 2006. However, as the dissolution of Registrant was not imminent as of December 31, 2007, the consolidated financial statements are presented assuming that Registrant will continue as a going concern.
Registrant's primary sources of funds are currently rents generated by Fieldpointe and interest derived from deposits, certain of which are restricted in accordance with the terms of Fieldpointe’s mortgage. Registrant's investment would normally be considered highly illiquid if not for the potential sale of Fieldpointe.
In the event a sale of Fieldpointe does not take place, Registrant is not expected to have access to additional sources of financing. Accordingly, if unforeseen contingencies arise that cause Fieldpointe to require capital in addition to that contributed by Registrant and any equity of the Carrollton Partnership’s general partners, potential sources from which such capital needs will be able to be satisfied (other than reserves) would be additional equity contributions or voluntary loans of the Carrollton Partnership’s general partners (which general partners are not required to fund such amounts) or other reserves, if any, which could adversely affect distributions from the Carrollton Partnership to Registrant of operating cash flow and any sale or refinancing proceeds.
Although Registrant generated cash from operations during the year ended December 31, 2007, cash and cash equivalents decreased by approximately $136,000 primarily as a result of distributions to the partners. Property and equipment (included in assets held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets) are no longer being depreciated, under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, as a result of their classification as held for sale. Liabilities related to assets held for sale have decreased primarily as a result of principal payments on the Carrolton Partnership’s mortgage. Accounts payable and accrued expenses and due to general partners and affiliates have decreased in the ordinary course of operations.
Results of Operations
The consolidated statements of operations in the accompanying financial statements are presented based on the determination that Fieldpointe is held for sale as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and that The Westmont was held for sale as of December 31, 2005 (and therefore reflect the operating activity of the Operating Partnerships as discontinued operations). Registrant intends to dissolve upon the sale of Fieldpointe; however, there is no assurance that Fieldpointe will ultimately be sold pursuant to the plan. Accordingly, the consolidated results of operations are presented without effect to the presentation of discontinued operations.
Year Ended December 31, 2007
During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Carrollton Partnership’s operations resulted in net earnings of approximately $787,000, which includes financial expenses and amortization of approximately $568,000 and approximately $15,000, respectively. As noted above under Liquidity and Capital Resources, there is no depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2007 as a result of the property and equipment of the Carrollton Partnership being classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2005. Accordingly, the Carrollton Partnership generated earnings from operating activities prior to financial expenses and amortization of approximately $1,370,000. Mortgage principal payments during 2007 for the Carrollton Partnership were approximately $208,000. After considering the mandatory mortgage principal payments and required deposits to mortgage escrows, among other things, the Carrollton Partnership generated cash flow of approximately $571,000 during year ended December 31, 2007; such amount represents primarily cash flow from discontinued operations. There can be no assurance that the level of cash flow generated by the Carrollton Partnership during the year ended December 31, 2007 will continue in future periods.
Considering the sale of The Westmont in July 2006, results of discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2007 have changed significantly as compared to the year ended December 31, 2006. For continuing operations, interest revenue decreased for the year ended December 31, 2007 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2006 primarily as a result of interest earned on the sales proceeds of The Westmont in 2006. Columbia Partnership incurred a loss of approximately $46,000 prior to its dissolution in 2007.
As of December 31, 2007, the occupancy of Fieldpointe was approximately 98%. In the event a sale of Fieldpointe does not take place, the future operating results of such Complex will be extremely dependent on market conditions and therefore may be subject to significant volatility.
Year Ended December 31, 2006
In July 2006, the Columbia Partnership sold The Westmont for a price of $87,750,000 (see discussion above under Liquidity and Capital Resources). The accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2006 reflects a gain on the sale of approximately $66,880,000 and an allocation of such gain to the minority interest owners of the Columbia Partnership of approximately $10,032,000.
During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Carrollton Partnership’s operations resulted in net earnings of approximately $649,000, which includes financial expenses and amortization of approximately $581,000 and approximately $15,000, respectively. As noted above under Liquidity and Capital Resources, there is no depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2006 as a result of the property and equipment of the Carrollton Partnership being classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2005. Accordingly, the Carrollton Partnership generated earnings from operating activities prior to financial expenses and amortization of approximately $1,245,000. Mortgage principal payments during 2006 for the Carrollton Partnership were approximately $196,000. After considering the mandatory mortgage principal payments and required deposits to mortgage escrows, among other things, the Carrollton Partnership generated cash flow of approximately $447,000 during year ended December 31, 2006; such amount represents primarily cash flow from discontinued operations.
There is no depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2006 as a result of the property and equipment of the Complexes owned by the Operating Partnerships being classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2005. Considering the effect of the depreciation treatment in 2006 and the sale of The Westmont in July 2006, results of discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2006 have changed significantly as compared to the year ended December 31, 2005. For continuing operations, interest revenue increased for the year ended December 31, 2006 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2005 primarily as a result of interest earned on the sales proceeds of The Westmont, while administrative and management expenses decreased primarily as a result of a decline in legal fees incurred in connection with the Operating Partnerships. As of December 31, 2006, the occupancy of Fieldpointe was approximately 97%.
Year Ended December 31, 2005
During 2005, the Columbia Partnership's and the Carrollton Partnership's operations resulted in net income of approximately $411,000 and approximately $305,000, respectively. The Columbia Partnership's income includes financial expenses and depreciation and amortization of approximately $1,368,000 and approximately $1,175,000, respectively, while the Carrollton Partnership's income includes financial expenses and depreciation and amortization of approximately $593,000 and approximately $409,000, respectively. Accordingly, the Columbia Partnership and the Carrollton Partnership generated income from operating activities prior to financial expenses and depreciation and amortization of approximately $2,954,000 and approximately $1,307,000, respectively. Mortgage principal payments during 2005 for the Columbia Partnership and the Carrollton Partnership were approximately $436,000 and approximately $184,000, respectively. After considering the respective mandatory mortgage principal payments and required deposits to restricted reserves, among other things, the Complexes generated combined cash flow of approximately $1,592,000 during 2005; such amount represents primarily cash flow from discontinued operations.
Results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2005 reflect improvement as compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. Rental revenue is higher in 2005 as compared to 2004 primarily as a result of higher average occupancy of The Westmont. Administrative and management expenses have increased in part as a result of costs incurred by Registrant in connection with various tender offers for Registrant’s units in 2005. The weighted average interest rate on the Columbia Partnership’s first mortgage was approximately 2.38% in 2005 as compared to approximately 1.12% in 2004. As of December 31, 2005, the occupancy of Fieldpointe was approximately 99% and the occupancy of The Westmont was approximately 100% as to residential units and approximately 88% as to commercial space.

Inflation is not expected to have a material adverse impact on Registrant's operations.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which requires Registrant to make certain estimates and assumptions. A summary of significant accounting policies is provided in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. The following section is a summary of certain aspects of those accounting policies that may require subjective or complex judgments and are most important to the portrayal of Registrant’s financial condition and results of operations. Registrant believes that there is a low probability that the use of different estimates or assumptions in making these judgments would result in materially different amounts being reported in the consolidated financial statements.
Registrant records its real estate assets at cost less accumulated depreciation and, if there are indications that impairment exists, adjusts the carrying value of those assets in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." See discussion under Liquidity and Capital Resources above regarding the disposition of The Westmont and the possible disposition of Fieldpointe. Under SFAS No. 144, the long-lived assets of the Carrollton Partnership are classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 (and those of the Columbia Partnership were classified as such as of December 31, 2005) and are measured at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Once classified as held for sale, depreciation of the assets is not recorded. The accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 do not include any depreciation, while the statement for the year ended December 31, 2005 includes a full year of depreciation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. Accordingly, SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. Registrant plans to adopt SFAS 157 beginning January 1, 2008. Registrant is currently assessing what impact, if any, the adoption of SFAS 157 will have on its financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 provides entities with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Furthermore, SFAS 159 establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Registrant is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 159 on its financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141(R)”). SFAS 141(R) requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize the full fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction (whether a full or partial acquisition); establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed; requires expensing of most transaction and restructuring costs; and requires the acquirer to disclose to investors and other users all of the information needed to evaluate and understand the nature and financial effect of the business combination. SFAS 141(R) applies to all transactions or other events in which Registrant obtains control of one or more businesses, including those sometimes referred to as “true mergers” or “mergers of equals” and combinations achieved without the transfer of consideration, for example, by contract alone or through the lapse of minority veto rights. SFAS 141(R) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after January 1, 2009. Registrant does not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS 141(R) will have a material impact on its financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 requires reporting entities to present noncontrolling (minority) interests as equity (as opposed to as a liability or mezzanine equity) and provides guidance on the accounting for transactions between an entity and noncontrolling interests. SFAS 160 applies prospectively as of January 1, 2009, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements which will be applied retrospectively for all periods presented. Registrant is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 160 on its financial statements.
Contractual Obligations
As of December 31, 2007, Registrant has the following contractual obligations (payments due by period):

None
Item 9A Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Registrant in reports that Registrant files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and timely reported as provided in SEC rules and forms. Registrant periodically reviews the design and effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, including compliance with various laws and regulations that apply to its operations. Registrant makes modifications to improve the design and effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, and may take other corrective action, if its reviews identify a need for such modifications or actions. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, Registrant recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
Registrant has carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of WRRC, one of Registrant’s general partners, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the year ended December 31, 2007. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of WRRC concluded that Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2007.
Item 9A(T) Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Registrant is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of WRRC, Registrant conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting based on the framework set forth in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on its evaluation, management has concluded that Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2007.
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit Registrant to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
There were no changes in Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended December 31, 2007 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Partners
Secured Income L.P.
We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Secured Income L.P. and Subsidiaries (the “Partnership”) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the related consolidated statements of operations, partners’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007. 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 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 consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Partnership has determined that it is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financing reporting. Our audit 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 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 financial position of Secured Income L.P. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the results of their operations, changes in their partners’ equity (deficit) and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2007, 2006 AND 2005
Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Secured Income L.P. (the "Partnership"), was formed on October 10, 1986 under the Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act of the State of Delaware for the purpose of acquiring real estate limited partner interests. The Partnership filed a Form S-11 registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission effective March 5, 1987 covering an offering of up to 2,500,000 limited partnership units at $20 per unit. The admission of limited partners occurred on October 9, 1987 (at which time operations commenced), December 18, 1987 and April 12, 1988.
Carrollton X Associates Limited Partnership ("Carrollton") was organized under the laws of the District of Columbia on December 18, 1985 for the purpose of constructing and operating a residential rental apartment complex and related facilities under Section 221(d) 4 of the National Housing Act. The Partnership acquired a 98.9% limited partner interest in Carrollton in October 1987. The complex consists of 252 units located in Frederick, Maryland and operates under the name of Fieldpointe Apartments (“Fieldpointe”).
Columbia Westmont Associates, L.P., formerly Columbia Associates ("Columbia") was formed as a limited partnership on February 6, 1985 to acquire an interest in real property located in New York, New York and to construct and operate thereon a 163 unit apartment complex which also includes a parking garage and approximately 9,400 square feet of commercial space. The Partnership acquired a 98.9% limited partner interest in Columbia in December 1988. The complex operated under the name of The Westmont (see below herein Note 1 regarding the sale of The Westmont).
Columbia and Carrollton are referred to collectively as the “Operating Partnerships.” Carrollton has an underlying mortgage that qualifies for tax-exempt financing as a result of restricting at least 20% of its apartment units for low to moderate income tenants as defined in applicable guidelines. Columbia’s mortgages also had such qualifications and restrictions.
In July 2006, Columbia sold The Westmont for a price of $87,750,000; the Partnership made distributions to its partners in 2006 from proceeds received in connection with such sale. Since April 2006, Carrollton has entered into three Agreements of Purchase and Sale to sell Fieldpointe at gross prices (before brokerage commissions and other selling costs) ranging from $25,500,000 to $27,100,000; however, on each occasion, the purchaser did not consummate the transaction. With the passage of time and apparent softening of purchase prices in the market, especially as a result of the decline in the condominium conversion market, the Carrollton general partners felt it was desirable to obtain an independent appraisal of the property. The appraisal estimated a market value for the property of approximately $24,500,000 (before any reduction for brokerage commissions and other selling costs). Carrollton has also obtained a Phase I environmental report, an updated survey, and title commitment in contemplation of providing a due diligence package to prospective purchasers in order to provide incentive for the purchase process. Although the market has softened and has caused a considerably longer time frame to consummate a sale of Fieldpointe than was originally anticipated, it remains management’s intention to sell the property. There can be no assurance that a sale will be completed. The disposition of The Westmont and the intention to dispose of Fieldpointe (collectively, the “Complexes”) by their respective owners is consistent with a plan of liquidation and winding up of the business of the Partnership, which plan was enacted in 2006. Following a sale of Fieldpointe, if consummated, the Partnership intends to distribute the net proceeds to which it is entitled under the Carrollton partnership agreement to its limited and general partners, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Partnership’s limited partnership agreement (the “Partnership Agreement”). At such time, the Partnership intends to dissolve. The recent appraisal of Fieldpointe indicates that the carrying amount of the associated long-lived assets is recoverable based on applying the standard accounting tests for impairment. Due to the sale of The Westmont and the potential sale of Fieldpointe and the Partnership’s plans to dissolve upon such sales and the winding up of the business of the Partnership, certain assets and liabilities of Carrollton are classified as held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Accordingly, the operations of Columbia and Carrollton are reported as discontinued operations for current and prior periods in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. That classification resulted in the cessation of recording depreciation of those assets as of January 1, 2006. However, as the dissolution of the Partnership was not imminent as of December 31, 2007, the consolidated financial statements are presented assuming that the Partnership will continue as a going concern. Columbia was dissolved during the year ended December 31, 2007.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
DECEMBER 31, 2007, 2006 AND 2005
Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the assets, liabilities and results of operations that relate to the business of the Partnership, Carrollton and Columbia. All significant inter-partnership balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. A general partner and special limited partner minority interest of 1.1% is held in each of the Operating Partnerships. That minority interest, except for the allocation of gain in connection with the sale of The Westmont (see discussion above herein Note 1) has been allocated to the general partners of the Partnership for all periods presented.
Property, Equipment and Depreciation
The long-lived assets of Carrollton are classified as held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are measured at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Once classified as held for sale, recording of depreciation of the assets ceases. Land, buildings and improvements prior to December 31, 2005 had been carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value represents the net cash flow necessary to recover costs exclusive of debt service. Depreciation was being provided for in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of buildings and improvements to operations over their estimated service lives by use of the straight-line method over a 25-year life. Personal property is carried at cost and was being depreciated over its estimated service life of 5-7 years using the straight-line method. Improvements are capitalized, while expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Upon disposal of depreciable property, the appropriate property accounts are reduced by the related costs and accumulated depreciation and the resulting gains or losses are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.
Intangible Assets and Amortization
Mortgage costs are amortized over the terms of the respective loans using the effective interest method. Acquisition fees are amortized over the useful lives of the respective property and equipment using the straight-line method. Leasing costs were being amortized over the period of the applicable leases, which ranged from 5 to 12 years, using the straight-line method. As a result of the sale of The Westmont, certain unamortized intangible assets were charged to expense during the year ended December 31, 2006.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with Statement of Financial Standard (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” long-lived assets, primarily property and equipment, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets might not be recoverable. The Partnership does not perform a periodic assessment of assets for impairment in the absence of such information or indicators. Conditions that would necessitate an impairment assessment include a significant decline in the observable market value of an asset, a significant change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or a significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets is not recoverable. For long-lived assets to be held and used, the Partnership recognizes an impairment loss only if its carrying amount is not recoverable through its undiscounted cash flows and measures the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amount and estimated fair value. See discussion above under Property, Equipment and Depreciation regarding the long-lived assets of Carrollton being classified as held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as a result of the potential disposition of Fieldpointe.
Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue consists of a fee received by Columbia for the extension of a parking garage lease that expires September 30, 2011. Such fee was being accreted to revenue over the lease term and was fully accreted in 2006 upon the sale of The Westmont.
Leases
Tenant leases are treated as operating leases. Rental revenue is reported when earned and amounts received in advance are deferred until earned.

Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Income Taxes
No provision or benefit for income taxes has been included in these financial statements since taxable income or loss passes through to, and is reportable by, the partners individually.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents.
Net Income per Unit of Limited Partnership Interest
Net income per unit of limited partnership interest is calculated based upon the weighted average number of units outstanding, 984,369 for each of the years 2007, 2006 and 2005. Losses are allocated to the limited partners until such time as the limited partners' equity reaches zero as a result of loss allocations.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. Accordingly, SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. The Partnership plans to adopt SFAS 157 beginning January 1, 2008. The Partnership is currently assessing what impact, if any, the adoption of SFAS 157 will have on its financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 provides entities with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Furthermore, SFAS 159 establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Partnership is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 159 on its financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141(R)”). SFAS 141(R) requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize the full fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction (whether a full or partial acquisition); establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed; requires expensing of most transaction and restructuring costs; and requires the acquirer to disclose to investors and other users all of the information needed to evaluate and understand the nature and financial effect of the business combination. SFAS 141(R) applies to all transactions or other events in which the Partnership obtains control of one or more businesses, including those sometimes referred to as “true mergers” or “mergers of equals” and combinations achieved without the transfer of consideration, for example, by contract alone or through the lapse of minority veto rights. SFAS 141(R) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after January 1, 2009. The Partnership does not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS 141(R) will have a material impact on its financial statements.

Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 requires reporting entities to present noncontrolling (minority) interests as equity (as opposed to as a liability or mezzanine equity) and provides guidance on the accounting for transactions between an entity and noncontrolling interests. SFAS 160 applies prospectively as of January 1, 2009, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements which will be applied retrospectively for all periods presented. The Partnership is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 160 on its financial statements.

Carrollton
Carrollton is obligated under the terms of a note in the original amount of $10,494,100, which note was financed through tax exempt revenue bonds issued by the City of Frederick, Maryland and is insured by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”). The note bears interest at 6.09% with monthly payments of principal and interest of $60,900 due through maturity in February 2028. The note is collateralized by the underlying value of the real estate plus other amounts on deposit with the lender. Pursuant to agreements, Carrollton is required to make monthly escrow deposits for taxes, insurance and replacement of project assets, and is subject to restrictions as to operating policies, rental charges, operating expenditures and distributions to partners.

Such amounts are included in liabilities related to assets held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets (see Note 3).
Columbia
Prior to the sale of The Westmont, Columbia was obligated under the terms of two mortgages for which the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac") is the credit enhancer. Credit enhancement was provided for $24.2 million in tax exempt bonds (the “First Mortgage”) and an $8.55 million conventional mortgage (the “Second Mortgage”) payable to Freddie Mac. The First Mortgage was scheduled to mature in July 2030 and required monthly payments of interest only until the maturity of the Second Mortgage (see below). After such maturity, a monthly principal reserve fund deposit was to be required in an amount to be determined at that time. The interest rate was based on a weekly variable low floater index, with a weighted average of approximately 3.31% in 2006 through the date of sale of The Westmont (see Note 2) and approximately 2.38% in 2005. In connection with the First Mortgage, the Columbia Partnership purchased an interest rate cap, such that the rate could not exceed 6.54% through June 1, 2006. In addition to the interest expense and tax and insurance escrows, monthly payments included the credit enhancement fee and are included in financial expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.
The Second Mortgage bore interest at 8.07% and required monthly principal and interest payments of $82,054 through the scheduled maturity in July 2015. The Columbia mortgages were assumed by the buyer or paid off in connection with the sale of the property and Columbia incurred a prepayment penalty of $1,220,545.
Aggregate annual mandatory maturities on the Carrollton Mortgage as of December 31, 2007 are as follows:
2007 | | $ | 220,763 | |
