RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION Results of Operations At June 30, 2007 the Partnership owned Las Brisas Apartments, a 376-unit apartment community located at 2010 South Clark Street, Abilene, Taylor County, Texas 79606.

The occupancy of Las Brisas averaged 95.6% during the second quarter of 2007 as compared to 96.5% for the second quarter of 2006.

At this time, there is no plan to dispose of Las Brisas Apartments. As of June 30, 2007, the Partnership had $1,065 in cash and cash equivalents as compared to $28,866 as of December 31, 2006. The net decrease in cash of $27,801 was capital purchases and repayments to the special limited partner. The property is encumbered by a non-recourse mortgage with a principal balance of $3,791,002 as of June 30, 2007. During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Partnership refinanced the mortgage payable. The mortgage payable bears interest at a rate of 6.18% and is payable in monthly installments of principal and interest of $25,058 through December 2011, at which time a lump sum payment of approximately $3,447,000 is due. This mortgage note is secured by real estate with a net book value of $2,316,682. For the foreseeable future, the Partnership anticipates that mortgage principal payments (excluding balloon mortgage payments), improvements and capital expenditures will be funded by net cash from operations. The primary source of capital to fund future Partnership balloon mortgage payments will be proceeds from the sale financing or refinancing of the Property. The special limited partner distribution preference arises from a preferred return on certain special limited partnership contributions made in prior years in conjunction with the refinancing of the mortgage debt. The total unpaid amount due to the special limited partners at June 30, 2007 is approximately $1,567,000 of which $724,000 is the remaining distribution preference and $843,000 is the original contribution. Any additional available cash will then be distributed in accordance with the partnership agreement. During 2007, 2006, and 2005, distributions of $130,000, $300,000, and $320,000, respectively, were made to the special limited partners in accordance with this agreement. Item 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk The Partnership is exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of its real estate mortgages. The Partnerships interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower it's overall borrowing costs. To achieve its objectives, the Partnership borrows primarily at fixed rates. The Partnership does not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for any purpose. The Partnerships' activities do not contain material risk due to changes in general market conditions. The partnership invests only in fully insured bank certificates of deposits, and mutual funds investing in United States treasury obligations. Item 4 - Controls and Procedures Based on their most recent evaluation, which was completed June 30, 2007, our Acting Principal Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believe our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d- 14) are effective. There were not any significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation, and there has not been any corrective action with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
