                     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,
     1996.

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 September 30, 1997, the results of its operations for the three and nine
     months  ended  September  30, 1997 and 1996 and its cash flows for the nine
     months then ended.

3.   The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30,
     1997 are not  necessarily  indicative of the results  expected for the full
     year.

4.   Marketable  securities at September  30, 1997 consist of 479,834  shares of
     common  stock of Public  Storage,  Inc.,  a  publicly  traded  real  estate
     investment trust and a general partner of the Partnership.  The Partnership
     has  designated  its  portfolio of  marketable  securities as available for
     sale. Accordingly,  at September 30, 1997, the Partnership has recorded the
     marketable  securities at fair value,  based upon the closing quoted prices
     of the  securities  at  September  30,  1997.  Changes  in market  value of
     marketable  securities are reflected as unrealized gains or losses directly
     in Partners' Equity and accordingly have no effect on net income.

                        PUBLIC STORAGE PROPERTIES V, LTD.
                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

     THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED  SEPTEMBER  30, 1997 COMPARED TO THREE AND NINE
     MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996:

     The  Partnership's  net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1997
 was $1,523,000  compared to $1,252,000 for the nine months ended  September 30,
 1996, representing an increase of $271,000 or 22%. The Partnership's net income
 for the three months ended September 30, 1997 was $539,000 compared to $432,000
 for the three months ended  September  30,  1996,  representing  an increase of
 $107,000 or 25%. These increases are primarily a result of increased  operating
 results at the Partnership's  mini-warehouse facilities combined with decreased
 interest expense.

     Rental income for the nine months ended  September 30, 1997 was  $5,216,000
 compared  to  $4,886,000  for  the  nine  months  ended   September  30,  1996,
 representing  an increase of $330,000 or 7%. Rental income for the three months
 ended  September  30, 1997 was  $1,765,000  compared to $1,671,00 for the three
 months ended September 30, 1996, representing an increase of $94,000 or 6%. The
 increases  for  the  three  and  nine  months  ended  September  30,  1997  are
 attributable  to  increases  in  rental  rates  and  occupancy  levels  at  the
 Partnership's mini-warehouse and business-park facilities. Realized rent at the
 mini-warehouse  facilities  for  the  nine  months  ended  September  30,  1997
 increased to $.80 per occupied  square foot from $.78 per occupied  square foot
 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. Weighted average occupancy levels
 at the  mini-warehouse  facility  were  95% and 92% for the nine  months  ended
 September 30, 1997 and 1996,  respectively.  Rental income at the Partnership's
 San Francisco  business park facility  increased by $14,000 for the nine months
 ended  September  30, 1997 compared to the same period in 1996 due to increases
 in both rental rates and  occupancy  levels.  Realized rent for the nine months
 ended September 30, 1997 increased to $1.18 per occupied square foot from $1.14
 per occupied square foot for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. Weighted
 average occupancy levels at the business park facility were 97% and 93% for the
 nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

     Other income increased $64,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997
 compared to the same  periods in 1996 due to an  increase  in  interest  income
 earned on invested cash.

     Dividend income from marketable  securities of affiliate  increased $17,000
 for the nine months  ended  September  30, 1997  compared to the same period in
 1996 due to an increase in the number of shares  owned in 1997  compared to the
 same period in 1996.

                                       7


     Cost of operations  (including  management  fees paid to affiliate) for the
 nine months ended September 30, 1997 was $1,581,000  compared to $1,491,000 for
 the nine months ended  September 30, 1996,  representing an increase of $90,000
 or 6%. This increase is mainly  attributable  to increases in management  fees,
 property  taxes  and  payroll  expenses.  Property  taxes  increased  due to an
 increase  in  property  tax rates at some of the  Partnership's  mini-warehouse
 facilities.  Cost of operations  (including  management fees paid to affiliate)
 for the three months ended September 30, 1997 was $512,000 compared to $514,000
 for the three  months ended  September  30,  1996,  representing  a decrease of
 $2,000 or 1%. This decrease is mainly attributable to a decrease in repairs and
 maintenance expense partially offset by an increase in management fees expense.

     In 1995, the  Partnership  prepaid eight months of 1996  management fees on
 its mini-warehouse  operations  discounted at the rate of 14% effective rate to
 compensate for early payment. As a result,  management fee expense for the nine
 months ended September 30, 1996 was $22,000 lower than it would have been under
 the customary undiscounted fee structure.

     Interest expense  decreased $19,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
 1997 compared to the same period in 1996 due  primarily to a lower  outstanding
 loan balance in 1997 over 1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

     Cash flows from operating activities  ($2,290,000 for the nine months ended
 September 30, 1997) have been sufficient to meet all current obligations of the
 Partnership.

     At September 30, 1997, the Partnership  held 479,834 shares of common stock
 (marketable  securities) with a fair value totaling  $14,215,000 (cost basis of
 $6,353,000 at September 30, 1997) in Public Storage, Inc. In November 1997, the
 Partnership  purchased an  additional  25,000  shares of common stock in Public
 Storage,  Inc. at an aggregate  cost of $683,000.  The  Partnership  recognized
 $308,000 in dividends for the nine months ended September 30, 1997.

     In the third quarter of 1991, quarterly  distributions were discontinued to
 enable the Partnership to make principal payments that commenced in 1991 and to
 increase  cash  reserves in  subsequent  years  through 1999, at which time the
 remaining principal balance is due.
