                KRUPP REALTY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP-V AND SUBSIDIARY

                    NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                              

   (1)  Accounting Policies

        Certain  information  and  footnote  disclosures  normally included  in
        financial  statements prepared  in accordance  with generally  accepted
        accounting principles have been condensed or  omitted in this report on
        Form 10-Q pursuant  to the Rules and  Regulations of the Securities and
        Exchange Commission.  In the  opinion of the General  Partners of Krupp
        Realty Limited  Partnership-V  and Subsidiary  (the "Partnership")  the
        disclosures  contained   in  this  report  are  adequate  to  make  the
        information  presented  not misleading.    See  Notes  to  Consolidated
        Financial Statements  included in  the Partnership's  Annual Report  on
        Form  10-K  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  1995  for  additional
        information  relevant  to significant  accounting policies  followed by
        the Partnership.

        In  the  opinion  of  the  General  Partners  of  the  Partnership, the
        accompanying unaudited  consolidated financial  statements reflect  all
        adjustments  (consisting  of  only  recurring  accruals)  necessary  to
        present fairly the Partnership's consolidated financial position as  of
        March 31, 1996,  and its results of operations  and cash flows for  the
        three  months ended  March 31,  1996 and  1995.   Certain prior  period
        balances  have  been  reclassified  to  conform  with  current   period
        consolidated financial statement presentation.

        The results  of operations for  the three months  ended March  31, 1996
        are  not necessarily indicative  of the  results which  may be expected
        for  the  full year.    See  Management's  Discussion  and Analysis  of
        Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in this report.

   (2)  Legal Proceedings

        The Partnership is a  defendant in a  class action suit related to  the
        practice of giving discounts for the early  or timely payments of  rent
        at Park Place.   The central  issue of  the complaint  was whether  the
        operative  lease violated  a Chicago  municipal ordinance  relating  to
        late fee  charges because  it allowed  tenants a discount  if rent  was
        paid  on or  before  the first  day of  the  month.   The  ordinance in
        question limited  late fee  charges to  $10 per  month if the  rent was
        more than 5 days  late.  The allegation  was that, notwithstanding  the
        stated rental  rate and  printed discount, the practice  represented an
        unlawful  means of exacting  late fee charges.   In addition to seeking
        damages  for  any  "forfeited"  discounts,  Plaintiffs  seek  statutory
        damages  of  two  months  rent  per  lease  violation  plus  reasonable
        attorneys' fees.  To be eligible  for such punitive damages  Plaintiffs
        must prove that  the Defendant deliberately used a provision prohibited
        by the ordinance.  

        During  1994, the  Court ruled in favor of the Defendant, and  accepted
        the  Partnership's Motion  to  Dismiss the  Plaintiff's  Third  Amended
        Complaint.   The Plaintiffs  have filed  an appeal  with the  Appellate
        Court  of  Illinois, First  District,  which  is  pending.     Although
        management  believes that the  Defendant will  prevail on  the issue of
        statutory damages, the  ultimate outcome of this litigation,  including
        an estimate of any potential loss,  cannot be presently determined  and
        accordingly  no provision for  loss has  been made  in the accompanying
        consolidated financial statements.

   (4)  Related Party Transactions

        Commencing  with   the  date  of   acquisition  of  the   Partnership's
        properties,  the  Partnership  entered  into  agreements  under   which
        property management  fees  are paid  to  an  affiliate of  the  General
        Partners for  services as management  agent.   Such agreements  provide
        for  management fees  payable monthly  at a  rate of  5% of  the  gross
        receipts from  the properties  under management.  The  Partnership also
        reimburses  affiliates of  the General  Partners for  certain  expenses
        incurred in  connection with the operation  of the  Partnership and its
        properties  including  accounting,  computer, insurance,  travel, legal
        and payroll; and with the preparation and mailing of  reports and other
        communications to the Limited Partners.

        Amounts  accrued or paid  to the  General Partners  or their affiliates
        were as follows:

   Item 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND  ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

   Liquidity and Capital Resources

   The Partnership's ability  to generate cash adequate  to meet its needs  is
   dependent primarily  upon  the operating  performance  of  its real  estate
   investments.    Such  ability  would  also   be  impacted  by  the   future
   availability  of  bank borrowing  sources as  current  debt matures.  These
   sources  of liquidity  will  be used  by  the  Partnership  for payment  of
   expenses  related  to   real  estate  operations,  debt  service,   capital
   improvements  and expenses.  Cash Flow, if any, as calculated under Section
   8.2(a)  of   the  Partnership  Agreement,  will   then  be  available   for
   distribution  to the Partners.   In  1995, the  General Partners determined
   that  there  was sufficient  Cash  Flow  and  working  capital reserves  to
   reinstate semi-annual distributions.  These distributions commenced in  the
   first quarter of 1996 at an annual rate of $20.00 per Unit.

   The  Partnership's major  capital improvement  project, the  repair of Park
   Place's building facade, was completed in the fourth  quarter of 1995.  The
   external  improvements, along  with extensive  interior improvements,  were
   funded from established reserves  and cash generated by the property.   The
   completion of  these improvements  has greatly  enhanced the appearance  of
   the property and has  resulted in both increased  rents and occupancy.  The
   Partnership's properties, Century and Park Place,  are anticipated to spend
   approximately  $2,280,000  for  capital  improvements  in  1996  to  remain
   competitive  in their  respective markets.  Again,  the Partnership expects
   to fund  these improvements  from established  reserves and  cash generated
   from the properties.

   Cash Flow

   Shown below, as required by the  Partnership Agreement, is the  calculation
   of  Cash Flow of the Partnership for the three months ended March 31, 1996.
   The  General Partners  provide certain  of  the  information below  to meet
   requirements of the Partnership Agreement and  because they believe that it
   is an appropriate supplemental  measure of operating performance.  However,
   Cash  Flow should not be  considered by the  reader as  a substitute to net
   income (loss), as  an indicator of the Partnership's operating  performance
   or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.


                                                                  Rounded to $1,000

                                                                   
               Net loss for tax purposes                              $(142,000)

               Items not requiring or (requiring) 
                the use of operating funds:
                  Tax basis depreciation and amortization               809,000 
                  Principal payments on mortgage notes payable         (129,000)      
                  Expenditures for capital improvements                (221,000) 
                  Working capital reserves                             (128,000)

                  Cash Flow                                           $ 189,000



   Operations

   The following discussion relates to the  operations of the Partnership  and
   its  properties (Park Place and Century II Apartments) for the three months
   ended March 31, 1996 and 1995.  The  sale of Marine Terrace in  July, 1995,
   significantly  impacts the  comparability of  the  Partnership's operations
   between the two three-month periods.

   Cash  Flow,  net  of  working  capital  reserves  and  Marine  Terrace, has
   decreased for  the three  months ended March  31, 1996 as  compared to  the
   same period in  1995 due to  an increase  in capital  improvements at  Park
   Place. Net loss also  increased within these two periods as the increase in
   total  expenses more than  offset the  increase in  total revenue.   Rental
   rates at  Park Place increased  during the second  half of  1995 and rental
   rates  at Century are anticipated  to increase during the second quarter of
   1996.  These increases  in rental rates as well as higher occupancy at Park
   Place  in  1996  continue  to  favorably  impact  rental  revenues  of  the
   Partnership.  Interest income for the Partnership  increased in 1996 due to
   a  rise  in  short-term  interest  rates   coupled  with  an  increase   in
   investments in cash and cash equivalents as a result of the  sale of Marine
   Terrace in the third quarter of 1995.

   Total expenses, net of expenses relating  to Marine Terrace, have  remained
   relatively  stable with  the exception  of  operating  and real  estate tax
   expenses.   The  increase in  operating  expense  is attributable  to  both
   increased  leasing  and  advertising  at  Park  Place  and  an  increase in
   utilities due  to higher  gas consumption  at Park  Place and Century  as a
   result of adverse weather conditions  in 1996.  Real estate taxes decreased
   for the three months  ended March 31,  1996 as compared to the  same period
   in 1995 as a result  of a refund on Park  Place's prior year's  real estate
  tax  bill  received  in  the  first  quarter  of  1996.   The  increase  in
   depreciation  expense  is   directly  related  to  the  extensive   capital
   improvement  program  at Park  Place  which  was  completed  in the  fourth
   quarter of 1995.

   General

   In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting  for
   the  Impairment  of Long-Lived  Assets  and  for  Long-Lived  Assets to  Be
   Disposed Of", which is effective for  fiscal years beginning after December
   15,  1995,  the Partnership  has  implemented  policies  and practices  for
   assessing impairment of its real estate assets.

   The  Partnership's  investments  in  properties are  carried  at  cost less
   accumulated depreciation,  unless the General  Partners believe  there is a
   significant impairment  in value, in  which case a provision  to write down
   investments  in properties to  fair value  will be  charged against income.
   At this time, the  General Partners do  not believe that any assets  of the
   Partnership are significantly impaired.

                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
                                              



   Item 1.    Legal Proceedings

      The Partnership  is a defendant  in a class  action suit related  to the
      practice of giving discounts for the early or timely payments of rent at
      Park  Place.   The  central  issue  of  the  complaint was  whether  the
      operative lease violated a Chicago municipal ordinance relating  to late
      fee charges because it allowed tenants a discount if rent was paid on or
      before the  first day of the  month.  The ordinance  in question limited
      late fee charges to $10 per month if the rent was more than 5 days late.
      The allegation  was  that, notwithstanding  the stated  rental rate  and
      printed discount, the practice represented an unlawful means of exacting
      late  fee charges.   In addition to seeking  damages for any "forfeited"
      discounts,  Plaintiffs seek  statutory damages  of two  months rent  per
      lease violation plus  reasonable attorneys'  fees.  To  be eligible  for
      such  punitive   damages  Plaintiffs  must  prove   that  the  Defendant
      deliberately used a provision prohibited by the ordinance.  

      During   1994, the Court ruled  in favor of the  Defendant, and accepted
      the  Partnership's  Motion  to  Dismiss the  Plaintiff's  Third  Amended
      Complaint.  The Plaintiffs have filed an appeal with the Appellate Court
      of Illinois, First  District, which  is pending.    Although  management
      believes  that  the Defendant  will prevail  on  the issue  of statutory
      damages, the ultimate outcome of this  litigation, including an estimate
      of any potential loss, cannot be presently determined and accordingly no
      provision  for  loss has  been  made  in  the accompanying  consolidated
      financial statements.
