Item 2.  Disposition of Assets

              On March 28, 2005, the Registrant sold Cypress Key Apartments in
         Orlando, Florida to Residences at Millenia, LLC, an unrelated Florida
         limited liability company, for $27,000,000 in an all cash transaction.
         The proceeds from the sale were used, in part, to retire the mortgage
         note of approximately $15,860,000 that had been secured by the
         property.

 (1)     Pro Forma Presentation
         ----------------------

              The accompanying pro forma financial statements reflect the sale
         of Cypress Key Apartments by the Registrant. The balance sheet as of
         the last filing date, December 31, 2004, has been adjusted to reflect
         the removal of the assets and liabilities related to Cypress Key
         Apartments as if the sale had been consummated on the balance sheet
         date. The statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2004
         has been adjusted to reflect the results of operations of the
         Registrant as if the sale had been consummated at the beginning of that
         year.

              The unaudited pro forma balance sheet is not necessarily
         indicative of what the actual financial position would have been
         assuming the sale had been consummated as of December 31, 2004, and the
         unaudited pro forma statement of operations is not necessarily
         indicative of what the actual results of operations would have been
         assuming the sale had been consummated as of January 1, 2004, nor do
         these pro forma financial statements purport to present the future
         financial position or results of operations of the Registrant. Pro
         forma information should be read in conjunction with the financial
         statements and notes thereto and the "Management's Discussion and
         Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" included in
         the Registrant's latest annual report on Form 10-K. In management's
         opinion, all adjustments necessary to reflect the sale have been made.

         Balance Sheet
         -------------
              The assets and related liabilities of Cypress Key Apartments as of
         December 31, 2004 have been removed from the historical balance sheet
         to reflect the sale of the property. Assets removed included real
         estate assets held for sale, $20,221,129 and other assets in
         discontinued operations totaling $471,098. Liabilities removed include
         other liabilities in discontinued operations totaling $15,957,511. The
         balance of cash has been increased to reflect the proceeds from the
         sale of Cypress Key Apartments. The partners' capital accounts are
         adjusted to reflect the increase in net assets, which resulted from the
         sale. All adjustments are shown as of the date of the last balance
         sheet filed, December 31, 2004.
