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, 1997
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  necessary to present fairly the
Partnership's consolidated financial position
as of March 31, 1998, and its results of
operations and cash flows for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 and 1997. 

The results of operations for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 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)Mortgage Note Payable

On December 10, 1997, the Partnership
completed the refinancing of the Century II
Apartments mortgage note.  The property was
refinanced with a $11,000,000 non-recourse
mortgage note payable at the rate of 6.75% per
annum with monthly principal and interest
payments of $71,346.  The mortgage note, which
is collateralized by the property, matures on
January 1, 2008 at which time the remaining
principal (approximately $9,401,537) and
accrued interest are due.  The note may be
prepaid, subject to a prepayment penalty, at
any time with 30 days notice.  The Partnership
used the majority of the proceeds from the
refinancing to repay the existing mortgage
note on the property of $10,309,332, pay
closing costs of $236,763, to pay a prepayment
premium of $210,825 and to establish various
escrows.  The prepayment premium as well as
unamortized deferred mortgage costs of
$77,331, were reported in the Statement of
Operations as an extraordinary loss from early
extinguishment of debt for the year ended
December 31, 1997.

(3)Legal Proceeding

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 Tower Apartments ("Park
Place") and Marine Terrace Apartments, a
previously owned property.  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 of the month.  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 and reasonable
attorneys' fees.  To be eligible for such
damages, plaintiffs must prove that the
defendants deliberately used a provision
prohibited by the ordinance.

(3)Legal Proceeding, Continued

During 1994, the Court ruled in favor of the
defendants and accepted the Partnership's
Motion to Dismiss the Plaintiff's Third
Amended Complaint.  The plaintiffs filed an
appeal with the Appellate Court of Illinois,
First District.  During 1996, the decision was
reversed on appeal and the case remanded to
trial court for further proceedings.  The
defendants intend to vigorously defend this
case.  However, the Partnership has recorded a
provision of $282,000, representing its share
of the discounts and late fees, plus estimated
legal costs, in the consolidated financial
statements as of March 31, 1998.  The ultimate
outcome of the potential punitive damages
award related to this litigation, including an
estimate of potential loss, cannot presently
be determined. 

(4)Changes in Partners' Deficit

A summary of changes in Partners' deficit for
the three months ended March 31, 1998 is as

management services.  Pursuant to the
management  agreements, management fees are
payable monthly at a rate of 5% of the gross
receipts from the properties under management. 
The Partnership also reimburses affiliates of

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

This Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
contains forward-looking statements including
those concerning Management's expectations
regarding the future financial performance and
future events.  These forward-looking
statements involve significant risk and
uncertainties, including those described
herein.  Actual results may differ materially
from those anticipated by such forward-looking
statements.

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, capital improvements, debt service
and other 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. Beginning
with the distribution paid in February, 1997,
the annual distribution rate was increased
from $20.00 per Unit, to $40.00 per Unit,
based on sufficient Cash Flow and working
capital reserves.

On December 10, 1997, the Partnership
completed the refinancing of the Century II
Apartments ("Century") mortgage note.  The
property was refinanced with a $11,000,000
non-recourse mortgage note payable at the rate
of 6.75% per annum with monthly principal and
interest payments of $71,346.  The Partnership
used the majority of the proceeds from the
refinancing to repay the existing mortgage
note on the property of $10,309,332, pay
closing costs of $236,763, to pay a prepayment
premium of $210,825 and to establish various
escrows.

The Partnership's properties, Century and Park
Place, have spent approximately $150,000 to
date and are anticipated to spend
approximately $2,122,000 for capital
improvements in 1998 to remain competitive in
their respective markets.  These improvements
include floor covering, pavement upgrades and
appliance replacements, as well as interior
improvements and refurbishment of the elevator
and convenience store at Park Place.  The
Partnership expects to fund these improvements
from established reserves and cash generated
from property operations.

Operations

The following discussion relates to the
operations of the Partnership and its
properties (Park Place and Century) for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997. 

Net income increased for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 as compared to the same
period in 1997, as rental revenue increased
and expenses stayed relatively stable.

The Partnership's properties both enjoyed
consistent 99% average residential occupancy
rates in the first quarter of 1998 and during
the same period in 1997.  However, residential
rental rate increases at Park Place and
Century were implemented and as a result,
rental revenue increased between the periods. 
The strong occupancy and the ability to
increase rental rates is a direct result of
the Partnership's efforts to enhance the
appeal of its properties, including an
appliance replacement program at Century and a
new fitness center at Park Place.  Interest
income decreased as average cash and cash
equivalent balances between the periods
decreased.

Total expenses remained relatively stable when
comparing the first three months of 1998 to
the first three months of 1997, as the
increase in real estate tax expense offset the
decrease in general and administrative and
interest expenses.  At the end of 1997, Park
Place was assessed at a higher value,
resulting in a higher real estate tax expense. 
General and administrative expense decreased
due to legal costs incurred in 1997,
associated with the unsolicited tender offer
to purchase Partnership Units.  Interest
expense decreased as a result of the
refinancing of Century's mortgage note payable
in December, 1997.

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 and reasonable
attorneys' fees.  To be eligible for such
damages, plaintiffs must prove that the
defendants deliberately used a provision
prohibited by the ordinance.  

During 1994, the Court ruled in favor of the
defendants and accepted the Partnership's
Motion to Dismiss the Plaintiff's Third
Amended Complaint.  The plaintiffs filed an
appeal with the Appellate Court of Illinois,
First District.  During 1996, the decision was
reversed on appeal and the case remanded to
trial court for further proceedings.  The
defendants intend to vigorously defend this
case.  However, the Partnership has recorded a
provision of $282,000, representing its share
of the discounts and late fees, in the
consolidated financial statements as of March
31, 1998.  The ultimate outcome of the
potential punitive damages award related to
this litigation, including an estimate of
potential loss, cannot presently be
determined.
