INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Partners of
APT Housing Partners Limited Partnership
Woburn, Massachusetts
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of APT Housing Partners
Limited Partnership (a Massachusetts Limited Partnership) as of December
31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of income, partners' capital
(deficiency), and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of Ashland
Commons Associates and Rockledge Apartments Associates("Local Limited
Partnerships"), the investments in which, as discussed in Note 3 to the
financial statements, are accounted for by the equity method of accounting.
The Partnership's cumulative share of losses of and distributions from the
Local Limited Partnerships have exceeded its investments therein.
Accordingly, the Partnership has reduced the investments to zero and has
suspended application of the equity method. The financial statements of
the Local Limited Partnerships were audited by other auditors
whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as
it relates to the amounts included for the Local Limited Partnerships, is
based solely on the reports of the other auditors. The financial statements
of APT Housing Partners Limited Partnership for the year ended December 31,
1994, were audited by other auditors whose report dated February 18, 1995,
expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the
reports of other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, the
1996 and 1995 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of APT Housing Partners Limited
Partnership as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
1996 and 1995 financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental
schedules listed in the accompanying index on page 15 are presented for
purposes of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules
and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. These
schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the
audits of the basic financial statements. In our opinion, which insofar as
it relates to amounts included for the Local Limited Partnerships,
is based on the reports of other auditors, these schedules fairly state in
all material respects the financial data required to be set forth therein
in relation to the basic 1996 and 1995 financial statements taken as a whole.

SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
Financial Statements are prepared on the accrual basis and all development
and construction costs were capitalized. The partnership, for tax purposes,
charged to expense certain costs, such as interest and real estate taxes
during construction. Accordingly, the cost of property and equipment shown
in these statements includes $649,227 which has been deducted for tax
purposes.
The balance sheet does not give effect to any assets that the partners may
have outside their interest in the partnership, nor to any personal
obligations, including income taxes, of the individual partners.
PROPERTY, EQUIPMENT AND DEPRECIATION
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of buildings is
based on a 25 year life using the straight-line method for financial
reporting purposes. For income tax purposes, accelerated depreciation
methods are used.
AMORTIZATION
Amortization of financing costs is based on a forty year life using the
straight-line method for both financial reporting and income tax purposes.
INCOME TAXES
The partnership, as an entity, is not subject to income tax. The partners'
share of the loss for tax purposes is includable in their income tax returns.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of statement of cash flows, the Partnership considers all
highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.
ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - GENERAL
Ashland Commons Associates is a Massachusetts limited partnership which was
formed on September 29, 1982 for the purpose of owning, rehabilitating and
operating a multi-unit apartment complex containing 96 residential units
under the provisions of Section 221 (d)(4) of the National Housing Act.
The partnership has a Section 8 contract with HUD to receive rent subsidy
equal to approximately 85% of the total rental income. This contract
expires September, 2002.
NOTE 2 - MORTGAGE LOAN PAYABLE
The mortgage note is insured by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) and
is payable in monthly installments of approximately $48,283, including
interest at 11.728% per annum, through 2024. Annual principal payments
will average approximately $31,917 each year for the next five years.
The partnership is required to make monthly payments of $2,094 into a fund
for replacements. Withdrawals from this fund can only be made upon the
approval of the Federal Housing Commissioner.
Management believes it is not practical to estimate fair market value of
the mortgaged property because it is not determinable as to whether
financing with similar characteristics is currently available to the
partnership.
The partnership and its partners have no personal liability on the mortgage
loan; the mortgaged property is the only collateral for the loan.
NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The partnership pays a 4.5% management fee based on gross revenues
collected, which, at present, is capped at $43 PUPM, to an affiliate of a
general partner, and also $506 per month for bookkeeping. Further, the
management company is reimbursed at cost for salaries and wages and related
employee expenses such as payroll taxes, health insurance, disability
insurance, workers compensation and other insurance.
NOTE 4 - CAPITAL DISTRIBUTION RESTRICTION
No distribution of assets may be made except from "surplus cash" as defined
in the regulatory agreement with the Federal Housing Administration. Total
distributions are limited to $92,045 per annum as allowed by MHFA.

SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
Financial Statements are prepared on the accrual basis and all development
and construction costs were capitalized. The partnership, for tax purposes,
charged to expense certain costs, such as interest and real estate taxes
during construction. Accordingly, the cost of property and equipment shown
in these statements includes $649,227 which has been deducted for tax
purposes.
The balance sheet does not give effect to any assets that the partners
may have outside their interest in the partnership, nor to any personal
obligations, including income taxes, of the individual partners.
PROPERTY, EQUIPMENT AND DEPRECIATION
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of buildings is
based on a 25 year life using the straight-line method for financial
reporting purposes. For income tax purposes, accelerated depreciation
methods are used.
AMORTIZATION
Amortization of financing costs is based on a forty year life using the
straight-line method for both financial reporting and income tax purposes.
INCOME TAXES
The partnership, as an entity, is not subject to income tax. The
partners' share of the loss for tax purposes is includable in their income
tax returns.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of statement of cash flows, the Partnership considers all
highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.

To the Partners of
Rockledge Apartments Associates
Woburn, Massachusetts
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Rockledge Apartments
Associates, MHFA Project No. 71-187-N, (a limited partnership) as of
December 31, 1996 and the related statements of operations, partners'
equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the partnership's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards and Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller
General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining,
on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Rockledge Apartments
Associates as of December 31, 1996, and the results of its operations and
its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - GENERAL
Rockledge Apartments Associates is a Massachusetts limited partnership
which was formed on February 24, 1973 for the purpose of owning,
rehabilitating and operating a multi-unit apartment complex containing 60
residential units. The partnership has a contract with HUD to receive rent
subsidy equal to approximately 84% of the total rental income. The contract
expires in May, 2018.
NOTE 2 - MORTGAGE LOAN PAYABLE
The mortgage note is payable to the Massachusetts Housing Finance Agency
(MHFA) over a forty year period, in monthly installments of approximately
$3,841 (after interest subsidy payments of $6,597 monthly), including
interest at 7.5485% per annum, through 2018. Principal payments for the
next five years are as follows:
1997 23,584
1998 25,310
1999 27,116
2000 29,163
2001 31,311
The partnership is required to make monthly payments of $7,858 to MHFA for
real estate taxes, insurance, and a reserve for replacements. Withdrawals
must have the approval of MHFA.
Management believes it is not practical to estimate fair market value of
the mortgaged property because it is not determinable as to whether
financing with similar characteristics is currently available to the
partnership.
The partnership and its partners have no personal liability on the mortgage
loan; the mortgaged property is the only collateral for the loan.
NOTE 3 - NOTES PAYABLE
The note payable to affiliate bears interest at the rate of 12% per annum
for a period of 15 years at which time the note is payable in full.
Interest is payable only from Distributable Cash and residual amounts of
Net Capital Transactions proceeds.

statements are the responsibility of the partnership's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards and Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller
General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining,
on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statements presentation. We believe that
our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of MHFA Project No.
71-187-N as of December 31, 1994, and the results of its operations and its
cash flow for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
Financial Statements are prepared on the accrual basis and all development
and construction costs were capitalized.
The balance sheet does not give effect to any assets that the partners may
have outside their interest in the partnership, nor to any personal
obligations, including income taxes, of the individual partners.
PROPERTY, EQUIPMENT AND DEPRECIATION
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of buildings and
equipment is based on a twenty-five year life and a five year life
respectively. The ACRS method is used for tax purposes.
INCOME TAXES
The partnership, as an entity, is not subject to income tax. The partners'
share of the loss for tax purposes is includable in their income tax returns.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of statement of cash flows, the Partnership considers all
highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.
