                     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)


Note A - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial statements of Multi-Benefit
Realty Fund '87-1 (the  "Partnership"  or  "Registrant")  have been  prepared in
accordance with generally accepted  accounting  principles for interim financial
information  and  with the  instructions  to Form  10-QSB  and  Item  310(b)  of
Regulation  S-B.  Accordingly,  they do not include all of the  information  and
footnotes  required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for complete
financial  statements.  In the opinion of ConCap  Equities,  Inc.  (the "General
Partner"),  all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the
three and six month periods ended June 30, 2001, are not necessarily  indicative
of the results  that may be expected  for the fiscal  year ending  December  31,
2001. For further  information,  refer to the consolidated  financial statements
and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000. The General Partner is an affiliate
of Apartment Investment and Management Company ("AIMCO"), a publicly traded real
estate investment trust.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements of the Partnership include its 99% limited
partnership  interest in Hunt Club Associates,  Ltd. The General Partner of this
consolidated  partnership  is  the  General  Partner  of  the  Registrant.   The
Partnership  may  remove the  general  partner  of Hunt Club  Associates,  Ltd.;
therefore,  the  consolidated  partnership is controlled and consolidated by the
Partnership. All significant interpartnership balances have been eliminated.

Limited Partnership Units

The  Partnership  has  issued  two  classes  of  Units  of  Depositary  Receipts
("Units"),  "A" Units and "B" Units.  The two  classes of Units are  entitled to
different  rights  and  priorities  as to  cash  distributions  and  Partnership
allocations.  The Units represent  economic  rights  attributable to the limited
partnership  interests in the Partnership and entitle the holders thereof ("Unit
holders")  to  participate  in  certain  allocations  and  distributions  of the
Partnership.

Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" established standards for the
way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments
in annual  financial  statements  and  required  that those  enterprises  report
selected  information about operating segments in interim financial reports.  It
also established  standards for related disclosures about products and services,
geographic  areas,  and  major  customers.  As  defined  in SFAS  No.  131,  the
Partnership has only one reportable  segment.  The General Partner believes that
segment-based disclosures will not result in a more meaningful presentation than
the consolidated financial statements as currently presented.

Note B - Transactions with Affiliated Parties

The Partnership has no employees and is dependent on the General Partner and its
affiliates for the management and administration of all Partnership  activities.
The Partnership  Agreement  provides for (i) certain  payments to affiliates for
services and (ii)  reimbursement of certain  expenses  incurred by affiliates on
behalf of the Partnership.

The following  transactions  with the General Partner and/or its affiliates were
incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000:

                                                                  2001      2000
                                                                  (in thousands)
 Property management fees (included in operating expenses)        $ 96      $133
 Reimbursement for services of affiliates (included in
   general and administrative expenses)                            108        57
 Partnership management fee (included in general and
   administrative expense)                                          67        91

During the six months  ended June 30, 2001 and 2000,  affiliates  of the General
Partner  were  entitled  to  receive  5% of  gross  receipts  from  all  of  the
Partnership's  properties  as  compensation  for providing  property  management
services.  The  Partnership  paid to such affiliates  approximately  $96,000 and
$133,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

An affiliate  of the General  Partner  received  reimbursements  of  accountable
administrative  expenses amounting to approximately $108,000 and $57,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

The Partnership  Agreement  provides for a fee equal to 9% of distributable cash
from  operations  (as  defined in the  Partnership  Agreement)  received  by the
limited   partners  to  be  paid  to  the  General  Partner  for  executive  and
administrative  management services.  Fees of approximately  $67,000 and $91,000
were paid for the six months  ended  June 30,  2001 and 2000,  respectively,  in
association with the distributions.

In addition to its  indirect  ownership of the general  partner  interest in the
Partnership,  AIMCO and its  affiliates  currently own 61,630 "A" and 38,532 "B"
limited  partnership units in the Partnership  representing 64.01% and 51.27% of
the  outstanding "A" and "B" units,  respectively.  A number of these units were
acquired  pursuant  to  tender  offers  made by AIMCO or its  affiliates.  It is
possible that AIMCO or its affiliates will make one or more additional offers to
acquire additional limited partnership  interests in the Partnership for cash or
in  exchange  for  units  in the  operating  partnership  of  AIMCO.  Under  the
Partnership Agreement,  unitholders holding a majority of the Units are entitled
to take action with respect to a variety of matters which would include  without
limitation, voting on certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting
to remove the General Partner. As a result of its ownership of 64.01% and 51.27%
of the  outstanding "A" and "B" units,  respectively,  AIMCO is in a position to
influence all voting  decisions with respect to the  Registrant.  When voting on
matters,  AIMCO would in all  likelihood  vote the Units it acquired in a manner
favorable to the interest of the General  Partner  because of their  affiliation
with the General Partner.

Note C - Distributions

During the six months ended June 30,  2001,  the  Partnership  declared and paid
cash  distributions  from operations of  approximately  $757,000  (approximately
$130,000  to "A" Unit  holders  or $1.35 per  limited  partnership  "A" Unit and
approximately  $619,000 to "B" Unit holders or $8.24 per limited partnership "B"
Unit).  During the six months ended June 30, 2000, the  Partnership  paid a cash
distribution  from  operations,  which was  declared and accrued at December 31,
1999,  of  approximately  $427,000 of which  approximately  $423,000  ($4.39 per
limited  partnership  "A" Unit) was paid to the "A" Unit  limited  partners.  In
addition,  the Partnership  declared and paid  distributions  from operations of
approximately $1,018,000 (approximately $1,008,000 to "A" Unit holders or $10.47
per limited  partnership "A" Unit) and of proceeds from the sale of Carlin Manor
Apartments of  approximately  $4,500,000  (approximately  $3,264,000 to "A" Unit
holders or $33.90 per limited partnership "A" Unit and approximately  $1,219,000
to "B" Unit holders or $16.22 per limited partnership "B" Unit).

Note D - Sale of Investment Property

On  June  12,  2000,  the  Partnership   sold  Carlin  Manor  Apartments  to  an
unaffiliated  third  party for  $8,100,000.  After  payment of closing  costs of
approximately  $95,000,  the net sales proceeds received by the Partnership were
approximately $8,005,000.  The Partnership used a portion of the proceeds to pay
off  the  mortgage   encumbering  the  property  of  $2,500,000.   Approximately
$5,337,000  of the proceeds  were  distributed  to the partners  during the year
ended  December  31,  2000.  The  remaining  proceeds  were  used  to  establish
additional cash reserves for the Partnership. The Partnership's gain on the sale
was  approximately  $4,814,000  and  there  was an  extraordinary  loss on early
extinguishment  of debt of  approximately  $105,000  consisting  of a prepayment
penalty and the write-off of unamortized loan costs.

Note E - Legal Proceedings

In March 1998, several putative unit holders of limited partnership units of the
Partnership  commenced an action  entitled  Rosalie  Nuanes,  et al. v. Insignia
Financial  Group,  Inc., et al. in the Superior Court of the State of California
for the County of San Mateo. The plaintiffs  named as defendants,  among others,
the   Partnership,   its  General  Partner  and  several  of  their   affiliated
partnerships  and corporate  entities.  The action  purports to assert claims on
behalf of a class of limited  partners and derivatively on behalf of a number of
limited  partnerships  (including  the  Partnership)  which are named as nominal
defendants,  challenging,  among other things,  the  acquisition of interests in
certain general partner entities by Insignia Financial Group, Inc.  ("Insignia")
and entities which were, at one time, affiliates of Insignia; past tender offers
by the Insignia affiliates to acquire limited  partnership units;  management of
the  partnerships  by the Insignia  affiliates;  and the series of  transactions
which  closed on October 1, 1998 and  February  26, 1999  whereby  Insignia  and
Insignia Properties Trust, respectively,  were merged into AIMCO. The plaintiffs
seek monetary damages and equitable relief,  including  judicial  dissolution of
the  Partnership.  On June 25, 1998, the General  Partner filed a motion seeking
dismissal of the action.  In lieu of  responding to the motion,  the  plaintiffs
filed an amended  complaint.  The General Partner filed demurrers to the amended
complaint which were heard February 1999.

Pending the ruling on such  demurrers,  settlement  negotiations  commenced.  On
November 2, 1999,  the parties  executed and filed a Stipulation  of Settlement,
settling claims, subject to court approval, on behalf of the Partnership and all
limited partners who owned units as of November 3, 1999. Preliminary approval of
the  settlement  was obtained on November 3, 1999 from the Court,  at which time
the Court set a final  approval  hearing for  December  10,  1999.  Prior to the
December  10,  1999  hearing,  the  Court  received  various  objections  to the
settlement, including a challenge to the Court's preliminary approval based upon
the alleged lack of authority of prior lead counsel to enter the settlement.  On
December  14,  1999,  the General  Partner  and its  affiliates  terminated  the
proposed settlement.  In February 2000, counsel for some of the named plaintiffs
filed a motion to disqualify plaintiff's lead and liaison counsel who negotiated
the settlement.  On June 27, 2000, the Court entered an order disqualifying them
from the case and an appeal was taken  from the order on  October  5,  2000.  On
December 4, 2000, the Court  appointed the law firm of Lieff Cabraser  Heimann &
Bernstein  LLP as new  lead  counsel  for  plaintiffs  and the  putative  class.
Plaintiffs  filed a third  amended  complaint on January 19,  2001.  On March 2,
2001,  the  General  Partner  and its  affiliates  filed a demurrer to the third
amended  complaint.  On May 14, 2001,  the Court heard the demurrer to the third
amended  complaint.  On July 10,  2001,  the Court  issued  an order  sustaining
defendants'  demurrer on certain grounds.  Plaintiffs have until August 16, 2001
to file a fourth amended complaint. The General Partner does not anticipate that
any costs, whether legal or settlement costs,  associated with this case will be
material to the Partnership's overall operations.

The  Partnership is unaware of any other pending or outstanding  litigation that
is not of a routine nature arising in the ordinary course of business.




ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS

The  matters  discussed  in this Form  10-QSB  contain  certain  forward-looking
statements  and  involve  risks and  uncertainties  (including  changing  market
conditions,   competitive  and  regulatory   matters,   etc.)  detailed  in  the
disclosures  contained  in this  Form  10-QSB  and the  other  filings  with the
Securities and Exchange  Commission made by the  Partnership  from time to time.
The  discussions  of the  Partnership's  business  and  results  of  operations,
including  forward-looking  statements pertaining to such matters, does not take
into  account  the  effects of any  changes to the  Partnership's  business  and
results of operations.  Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from
those  projected in the  forward-looking  statements  as a result of a number of
factors, including those identified herein.

The Partnership's  investment properties consist of two apartment complexes. The
following  table sets forth the average  occupancy of the properties for each of
the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000:

                                                   Average Occupancy
      Property                                      2001       2000

      Hunt Club Apartments                          92%        94%
         Indianapolis, Indiana

         West Valley City, Utah

Results of Operations

The Partnership had net income of approximately $31,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2001 as compared to  approximately  $4,772,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2000. For the three months ended June 30, 2001, the Partnership had net
income of  approximately  $41,000 as  compared  to net  income of  approximately
$4,629,000  for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The decrease in net income
for both the  three and six  month  periods  ended  June 30,  2001 is  primarily
attributable  to the gain  recorded on the sale of Carlin  Manor  Apartments  as
discussed below and a decrease in total revenues  partially offset by a decrease
in total expenses resulting from the sale of Carlin Manor Apartments.

Excluding the  operations of Carlin Manor  Apartments as well as the gain on the
sale  and the  extraordinary  loss on the  early  extinguishment  of the debt at
Carlin Manor,  the Partnership had net income of  approximately  $15,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 2001 compared to no income or loss for the  comparable
period in 2000. For the three months ended June 30, 2001 the Partnership had net
income of approximately  $25,000 compared to a net loss of approximately $57,000
for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in net income for the six
months  ended June 30,  2001 is due to a decrease  in total  expenses  partially
offset by a slight  decrease in total  revenues.  The increase in net income for
the three months ended June 30, 2001 is due to a decrease in total  expenses and
a slight increase in total  revenues.  The slight decrease in total revenues for
the six  months  ended  June  30,  2001 is due to a  decrease  in  other  income
partially  offset by an increase in rental income.  The slight increase in total
revenues  for the three  months  ended June 30,  2001 is due to an  increase  in
rental  income  partially  offset by a decrease in other  income.  Other  income
decreased  for the  three  and six  months  ended  June 30,  2001 as a result of
decreased interest income due to lower average cash balances in interest bearing
accounts  and  decreased  telephone   commissions   primarily  at  Shadow  Brook
Apartments  partially  offset  by  increased  utility   reimbursements  at  both
properties.  Rental income increased for the three and six months ended June 30,
2001  due  primarily  to an  increase  in  average  rental  rates at both of the
Partnership's  properties  which more than offset the  decrease in  occupancy at
Hunt Club Apartments.

Excluding the operations of Carlin Manor, total expenses decreased for the three
and six month periods ended June 30, 2001 due to decreased operating and general
and administrative  expenses partially offset by increased depreciation expense.
Operating expenses decreased primarily due to reduced manager salaries,  reduced
expenses  associated  with the rental of apartments  to  employees,  and reduced
maintenance  expenses  at  both of the  Partnership's  properties.  General  and
administrative  expenses decreased primarily due to a decrease in the payment of
Partnership  management fees due to reduced distributions from operations during
2001 and also decreased due to decreased  professional  fees necessary to manage
the  Partnership.  These  decreases were partially  offset by an increase in the
cost of  services  included  in the  management  reimbursements  to the  General
Partner as allowed under the Partnership Agreement. Also included in general and
administrative  expenses  for the three and six months  ended June 30,  2001 and
2000, are costs associated with the quarterly and annual communications with the
investors  and  regulatory  agencies  and  the  annual  audit  required  by  the
Partnership Agreement.  Depreciation expense increased primarily due to property
improvements and replacements completed during the past twelve months.

On  June  12,  2000,  the  Partnership   sold  Carlin  Manor  Apartments  to  an
unaffiliated  third  party for  $8,100,000.  After  payment of closing  costs of
approximately  $95,000,  the net sales proceeds received by the Partnership were
approximately $8,005,000.  The Partnership used a portion of the proceeds to pay
off  the  mortgage   encumbering  the  property  of  $2,500,000.   Approximately
$5,337,000  of the proceeds  were  distributed  to the partners  during the year
ended  December  31,  2000.  The  remaining  proceeds  were  used  to  establish
additional cash reserves for the Partnership. The Partnership's gain on the sale
was  approximately  $4,814,000  and  there  was an  extraordinary  loss on early
extinguishment  of debt of  approximately  $105,000  consisting  of a prepayment
penalty and the write-off of unamortized loan costs.

As part of the ongoing  business plan of the  Partnership,  the General  Partner
monitors the rental market  environment of each of its investment  properties to
assess the feasibility of increasing rents,  maintaining or increasing occupancy
levels and protecting  the  Partnership  from increases in expenses.  As part of
this plan,  the General  Partner  attempts to protect the  Partnership  from the
burden of  inflation-related  increases  in  expenses  by  increasing  rents and
maintaining a high overall  occupancy  level.  However,  due to changing  market
conditions,  which  can  result  in the use of  rental  concessions  and  rental
reductions to offset softening market conditions, there is no guarantee that the
General Partner will be able to sustain such a plan.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2001, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately
$390,000 as compared to approximately $1,875,000 at June 30, 2000. Cash and cash
equivalents decreased  approximately  $502,000 for the six months ended June 30,
2001,  from  December 31, 2000,  due to  approximately  $136,000 of cash used in
investing  activities  and  approximately  $798,000  of cash  used in  financing
activities,  which  was  partially  offset  by  approximately  $432,000  of cash
provided by operating activities. Cash used in investing activities consisted of
property  improvements  and  replacements  which  were  partially  offset by net
withdrawals from restricted escrows maintained by the mortgage lender. Cash used
in financing activities consisted primarily of distributions to partners and, to
a lesser extent, of payments of principal made on the mortgage  encumbering Hunt
Club  Apartments.  The  Partnership  invests  its  working  capital  reserves in
interest bearing accounts.

The sufficiency of existing  liquid assets to meet future  liquidity and capital
expenditure   requirements   is  directly   related  to  the  level  of  capital
expenditures  required at the  properties  to  adequately  maintain the physical
assets and other  operating needs of the Partnership and to comply with Federal,
state, and local legal and regulatory requirements. Capital improvements planned
for each of the Registrant's properties are detailed below.

Hunt Club

Approximately  $147,000 was budgeted for capital  improvements for the year 2001
at Hunt Club Apartments  consisting  primarily of carpet and tile  replacements,
appliances, and water heater replacements.  During the six months ended June 30,
2001, the Partnership completed approximately $93,000 of capital improvements at
Hunt Club Apartments,  consisting primarily of appliances,  carpet replacements,
structural  improvements,  telephones,  and  water  heater  replacements.  These
improvements were funded from replacement reserves.

Shadow Brook

Approximately $91,000 was budgeted for capital improvements for the year 2001 at
Shadow Brook Apartments  consisting  primarily of carpet and vinyl replacements,
major  landscaping,  and appliances.  During the six months ended June 30, 2001,
the  Partnership  completed  approximately  $53,000 of capital  improvements  at
Shadow Brook Apartments,  consisting  primarily of office computers,  electrical
upgrades, carpet and vinyl replacements, and appliances. These improvements were
funded from operating cash flow and replacement reserves.

The additional  capital  expenditures for 2001 at the  Partnership's  properties
will  be  made  only  to the  extent  of  cash  available  from  operations  and
Partnership  reserves. To the extent that such budgeted capital improvements are
completed,  the Partnership's  distributable cash flow, if any, may be adversely
affected at least in the short term.

The  Partnership's  assets  are  currently  thought  to be  sufficient  for  any
near-term needs (exclusive of capital  improvements) of the Partnership.  Shadow
Brook Apartments'  mortgage of $6,000,000  requires interest only payments and a
balloon payment in November 2003. Hunt Club Apartments' mortgage indebtedness of
approximately  $3,839,000  is amortized  over 20 years and matures  September 1,
2020 with no balloon payment.  The General Partner will attempt to refinance the
Shadow  Brook  Apartments  indebtedness  and/or sell the  property  prior to its
maturity  date.  If the property  cannot be  refinanced or sold for a sufficient
amount, the Partnership will risk losing the property through foreclosure.

During the six months ended June 30,  2001,  the  Partnership  declared and paid
cash  distributions  from operations of  approximately  $757,000  (approximately
$130,000  to "A" Unit  holders  or $1.35 per  limited  partnership  "A" Unit and
approximately  $619,000 to "B" Unit holders or $8.24 per limited partnership "B"
Unit).  During the six months ended June 30, 2000, the  Partnership  paid a cash
distribution  from  operations,  which was  declared and accrued at December 31,
1999,  of  approximately  $427,000 of which  approximately  $423,000  ($4.39 per
limited  partnership  "A" Unit) was paid to the "A" Unit  limited  partners.  In
addition,  the Partnership  declared and paid  distributions  from operations of
approximately $1,018,000 (approximately $1,008,000 to "A" Unit holders or $10.47
per limited  partnership "A" Unit) and of proceeds from the sale of Carlin Manor
Apartments of  approximately  $4,500,000  (approximately  $3,264,000 to "A" Unit
holders or $33.90 per limited partnership "A" Unit and approximately  $1,219,000
to  "B"  Unit  holders  or  $16.22  per  limited   partnership  "B"  Unit).  The
Partnership's  distribution policy is reviewed on a quarterly basis. Future cash
distributions  will depend on the levels of net cash generated from  operations,
the  availability  of  cash  reserves,   and  the  timing  of  debt  maturities,
refinancings,  and/or property sales. There can be no assurance,  however,  that
the Partnership  will generate  sufficient  funds from operations after required
capital expenditures to permit further  distributions to its partners during the
remainder of 2001 or subsequent periods.





                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In March 1998, several putative unit holders of limited partnership units of the
Partnership  commenced an action  entitled  Rosalie  Nuanes,  et al. v. Insignia
Financial  Group,  Inc., et al. in the Superior Court of the State of California
for the County of San Mateo. The plaintiffs  named as defendants,  among others,
the   Partnership,   its  General  Partner  and  several  of  their   affiliated
partnerships  and corporate  entities.  The action  purports to assert claims on
behalf of a class of limited  partners and derivatively on behalf of a number of
limited  partnerships  (including  the  Partnership)  which are named as nominal
defendants,  challenging,  among other things,  the  acquisition of interests in
certain general partner entities by Insignia Financial Group, Inc.  ("Insignia")
and entities which were, at one time, affiliates of Insignia; past tender offers
by the Insignia affiliates to acquire limited  partnership units;  management of
the  partnerships  by the Insignia  affiliates;  and the series of  transactions
which  closed on October 1, 1998 and  February  26, 1999  whereby  Insignia  and
Insignia Properties Trust, respectively,  were merged into AIMCO. The plaintiffs
seek monetary damages and equitable relief,  including  judicial  dissolution of
the  Partnership.  On June 25, 1998, the General  Partner filed a motion seeking
dismissal of the action.  In lieu of  responding to the motion,  the  plaintiffs
filed an amended  complaint.  The General Partner filed demurrers to the amended
complaint which were heard February 1999.

Pending the ruling on such  demurrers,  settlement  negotiations  commenced.  On
November 2, 1999,  the parties  executed and filed a Stipulation  of Settlement,
settling claims, subject to court approval, on behalf of the Partnership and all
limited partners who owned units as of November 3, 1999. Preliminary approval of
the  settlement  was obtained on November 3, 1999 from the Court,  at which time
the Court set a final  approval  hearing for  December  10,  1999.  Prior to the
December  10,  1999  hearing,  the  Court  received  various  objections  to the
settlement, including a challenge to the Court's preliminary approval based upon
the alleged lack of authority of prior lead counsel to enter the settlement.  On
December  14,  1999,  the General  Partner  and its  affiliates  terminated  the
proposed settlement.  In February 2000, counsel for some of the named plaintiffs
filed a motion to disqualify plaintiff's lead and liaison counsel who negotiated
the settlement.  On June 27, 2000, the Court entered an order disqualifying them
from the case and an appeal was taken  from the order on  October  5,  2000.  On
December 4, 2000, the Court  appointed the law firm of Lieff Cabraser  Heimann &
Bernstein  LLP as new  lead  counsel  for  plaintiffs  and the  putative  class.
Plaintiffs  filed a third  amended  complaint on January 19,  2001.  On March 2,
2001,  the  General  Partner  and its  affiliates  filed a demurrer to the third
amended  complaint.  On May 14, 2001,  the Court heard the demurrer to the third
amended  complaint.  On July 10,  2001,  the Court  issued  an order  sustaining
defendants'  demurrer on certain grounds.  Plaintiffs have until August 16, 2001
to file a fourth amended complaint. The General Partner does not anticipate that
any costs, whether legal or settlement costs,  associated with this case will be
material to the Partnership's overall operations.
