NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been
prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations, although management believes
that the disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading. These unaudited condensed
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and related notes appearing in the Partnership's Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2000.
2. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal
accruals, necessary to present fairly the Partnership's financial
position at March 31, 2001, the results of its operations for the three
months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 and its cash flows for the three
months then ended.
3. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2001 are
not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.
4. During October 1998, we borrowed $12,400,000 from a commercial bank.
The loan is unsecured and bears interest at the London Interbank
Offering Rate ("LIBOR") plus 0.55% (5.60% as of March 31, 2001). The
loan requires monthly payments of interest and matures October 2002.
Principal may be paid, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty
or premium.
We also entered into two interest rate swap agreements to reduce the
impact of changes in interest rates on a portion of its floating rate
debt. The first agreement, which covered $5,000,000 of debt through
October 2000, effectively changed the interest rate exposure from
floating rate to a fixed rate of 5.205%. The second agreement covers
$2,500,000 of debt through October 2001 and effectively changes the
interest rate exposure from floating rate to a fixed rate of 5.33%.
Market gains and losses on the value of the swap are deferred and
included in income over the life of the contract. We record the
differences paid or received on the interest rate swap in interest
expense as payments are made or received. As of March 31, 2001 the
unrealized gain on the interest swap, if required to be liquidated was
less than $5,000.

5. In June 1998, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 133 ("SFAS 133"), "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities," as amended in June 2000 by Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 138 ("SFAS 138"), "Accounting for
Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities," which
requires companies to recognize all derivatives as either assets or
liabilities in the balance sheet and measure such instruments at fair
value. As amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
137 ("SFAS 137"), "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133,"
the provisions of SFAS 133 will require adoption by the Partnership on
January 1, 2001. The Partnership adopted SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS
138, on January 1, 2001, and the adoption had no material impact on the
Partnership's consolidated financial statements.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
- --------------------------
When used within this document, the words "expects," "believes,"
"anticipates," "should," "estimates," and similar expressions are intended to
identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of that term in Section
27A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, as amended, and in Section 21F of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements
involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, which may
cause the actual results and performance of the Partnership to be materially
different from those expressed or implied in the forward looking statements.
Such factors include the impact of competition from new and existing real estate
facilities which could impact rents and occupancy levels at the real estate
facilities that the Partnership has an interest in; the Partnership's ability to
effectively compete in the markets that it does business in; the impact of the
regulatory environment as well as national, state, and local laws and
regulations including, without limitation, those governing Partnerships; and the
impact of general economic conditions upon rental rates and occupancy levels at
the real estate facilities that the Partnership has an interest in.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
Three months ended March 31, 2001 compared to three months ended March
31, 2000:
Our net income for the three months ended March 31, 2001 was $820,000
compared to $706,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000, representing an
increase of $114,000 or 16%. The increase was primarily a result of increased
operating results at our real estate facilities and a decrease in interest
expense.
Rental income for the three months ended March 31, 2001 was $1,438,000
compared to $1,287,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000, representing
an increase of $151,000 or 12%. The increase was attributable to higher rental
rates. Annual realized rent for the three months ended March 31, 2001 increased
to $12.16 per occupied square foot from $10.64 per occupied square foot for the
three months ended March 31, 2000, a 14% increase. The weighted average
occupancy levels at the mini-warehouse facilities were 93% and 95% for the three
months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
Cost of operations (including management fees paid to an affiliate) for
the three months ended March 31, 2001 was $378,000 compared to $364,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2000, representing a increase of $14,000 or 4%.
Interest expense decreased $35,000 to $82,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2001 from $117,000 for the same period in 2000. The decrease is
attributable to lower outstanding principal balances.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
Cash generated from operations ($982,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 2001) has been sufficient to meet all current obligations of the
Partnership.
During October 1998, we borrowed $12,400,000 from a commercial bank to
payoff other loans. The loan is unsecured and bears interest at the London
Interbank Offering Rate ("LIBOR") plus 0.55% (5.60% as of March 31, 2001). The
loan requires monthly payments of interest and mature October 2002. Principal
may be paid, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty or premium.
We have also entered into interest rate swap agreements to reduce the
impact of changes in interest rates on a portion of its floating rate debt. The
agreement, which covers $5,000,000 of debt through October 2000, effectively
changes the interest rate exposure from floating rate to a fixed rate of 5.205%.
The second agreement, which covers $2,500,000 of debt through October 2001 and
effectively changes the interest rate exposure from floating rate to a fixed
rate of 5.33%. Market gains and losses on the value of the swap are deferred and
included in income over the life of the contract. We record the differences paid
or received on the interest rate swap in interest expense as payments are made
or received. As of March 31, 2001, the unrealized gain on the interest rate
swap, if required to be liquidated was less than $5,000.
