NOTE 1.
- - - - - ------

McNeil  Real Estate  Fund XXIV,  L.P.  (the  "Partnership"),  formerly  known as
Southmark Equity Partners, Ltd., was organized on October 19, 1984, as a limited
partnership under the provisions of the California  Revised Limited  Partnership
Act to acquire and operate  commercial and residential  properties.  The general
partner of the Partnership is McNeil Partners,  L.P. (the "General Partner"),  a
Delaware limited partnership,  an affiliate of Robert A. McNeil ("McNeil").  The
principal place of business for the Partnership and the General Partner is 13760
Noel Road, Suite 700, LB70, Dallas, Texas, 75240.

In the opinion of management,  the financial  statements reflect all adjustments
necessary for a fair  presentation of the Partnership's  financial  position and
results  of  operations.  All  adjustments  were of a normal  recurring  nature.
However, the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1995 are
not  necessarily  indicative  of the results to be expected  for the year ending
December 31, 1995.

NOTE 2.
- - - - - ------

The  financial  statements  should  be read in  conjunction  with the  financial
statements  contained in the  Partnership's  Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the
year  ended  December  31,  1994,  and the  notes  thereto,  as  filed  with the
Securities and Exchange  Commission,  which is available upon request by writing

NOTE 3.

Certain prior period  amounts have been  reclassified  to conform to the current
period presentation.

NOTE 4.
- - - - - ------

The  Partnership  pays property  management fees equal to 5% of the gross rental
receipts for its residential  properties and 6% of gross rental receipts for its
commercial  properties to McNeil Real Estate  Management,  Inc.  ("McREMI"),  an
affiliate of the General Partner, for providing property management services for
the Partnership's residential and commercial properties and leasing services for
its residential  properties.  McREMI may also choose to provide leasing services
for the Partnership's  commercial properties,  in which case McREMI will receive
property  management  fees from such  commercial  properties  equal to 3% of the
property's  gross  rental  receipts  plus  leasing   commissions  based  on  the
prevailing market rate for such services where the property is located.

The  Partnership  reimburses  McREMI  for  its  costs,  including  overhead,  of
administering the Partnership's affairs.

The  Partnership  is paying an asset  management  fee  which is  payable  to the
General  Partner.  Through 1999, the asset management fee is calculated as 1% of
the  Partnership's  tangible asset value.  Tangible asset value is determined by
using the greater of (i) an amount calculated by applying a capitalization  rate
of 9% to the annualized net operating income of each property or (ii) a value of
$10,000 per apartment unit for  residential  properties and $50 per gross square
foot for commercial  properties to arrive at the property  tangible asset value.
The property  tangible  asset value is then added to the book value of all other
assets excluding  intangible items. The fee percentage  decreases  subsequent to
1999.  Compensation and reimbursements paid to or accrued for the benefit of the
General Partner or its affiliates are as follows:

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

FINANCIAL CONDITION
- - - - - -------------------

There  has  been  no  significant change in the operations of the Partnership's 
properties  since December 31, 1994. The Partnership  reported net loss for the 
first three months of 1995 of $73,592 as compared to net income of $47,603  for
the  first  three months of 1994.  Revenues were  $1,007,779 in 1995, down from 
$1,104,785 for the same  period  in  1994.  Expenses  increased  to  $1,081,371
in  1995, up from $1,057,182 in 1994.

Net cash  provided by  operating  activities  was  $264,955  for the first three
months of 1995,  an increase from the $239,032  provided  during the first three
months of 1994. After principal  payments on the Partnership's  mortgage loan of
$46,132 and capital improvements of $55,554,  cash and cash equivalents at March
31, 1995 were $1,883,430, up by $163,269 since December 31, 1994.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- - - - - ---------------------

Revenue:

Total  revenue  decreased  by  $97,006  for the  first  three  months of 1995 as
compared to the first three months in 1994. The decrease was primarily due to an
decrease in rental revenue, as discussed below.

Rental  revenue  decreased  by $111,323  for the first  three  months of 1995 in
relation to the  respective  period in 1994. The decrease was primarily due to a
decrease of  approximately  $57,000 in common area  maintenance  costs billed to
tenants at Southpointe  Plaza Shopping Center.  In addition,  there was a slight
decrease in  occupancy at Island  Plaza and  Springwood  Plaza from 84% and 77%,
respectively, at March 31, 1994 to 80% and 72%, respectively, at March 31, 1995.






Interest income increased by $14,317 in the three months ended March 31, 1995 as
compared to the same period in 1994.  The  increase  was due to the fact that in
1995 there was a greater amount of cash available for short-term investment. The
partnership had approximately $1.9 million in cash and cash equivalents at March
31, 1995, as compared to $1.5 million at March 31, 1994. In addition,  there was
an increase in interest rates earned on invested cash in 1995.

Expenses:

Total  expenses  increased  by $24,189  for the first three  months of 1995,  as
compared to the first three  months of 1994.  The  increase  was  primarily  the
result of an increase in personnel costs and other property operating  expenses,
partially  offset by a decrease in  utilities  and repairs and  maintenance,  as
discussed below.

Personnel  costs increased by $20,766 for the three months ended March 31, 1995,
as compared to the same period in 1994.  The increase was due to the an increase
in compensation to on-site personnel at all of the properties in 1995.

Utilities decreased by $15,541 for the first three months in 1995 as compared to
the same period in 1994.  The decrease was mainly due to the lower  occupancy at
Southpointe  Plaza,  which meant there were fewer tenants  using the  property's
utilities in 1995.

Repairs and  maintenance  expense  decreased by $14,573 for the first quarter of
1995 in  relation  to the  first  quarter  of 1994.  The  decrease  was due to a
decrease in the  replacement  of carpet and  appliances at Pine Hills and Sleepy
Hollow Apartments, which were expensed in 1994.

Other  property  operating  expenses  increased  by $11,715 for the three months
ended March 31, 1995 as compared to the three months  ended March 31, 1994.  The
increase was mainly due to increased  legal fees at  Southpointe  Plaza Shopping
Center relating to a lawsuit involving a tenant's lease.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- - - - - -------------------------------

The  Partnership's  primary  source of cash flows is from  operating  activities
which  generated  $264,955 of cash in the first three months of 1995 as compared
to  $239,032  for the same  period in 1994.  The  increase  in cash  provided by
operating activities in 1995 was mainly due to a decrease in property taxes paid
in the first  quarter of 1995 as compared to the first  quarter of 1994,  due to
the timing of the payment of invoices.

Short-term liquidity:
- - - - - --------------------

At March 31, 1995, the Partnership held cash and cash equivalents of $1,883,430.
This  balance   provides  a  reasonable   level  of  working   capital  for  the
Partnership's immediate needs in operating its properties.

For the  remainder  of 1995,  Partnership  properties  are  expected  to provide
positive  cash flow from  operations  after  payment of debt service and capital
improvements.  The  Partnership  has  budgeted  $436,000 for  necessary  capital
improvements  for all  properties  in 1995 which is  expected  to be funded from
available cash reserves or from operations of the  properties.  The present cash
balance is believed to provide an adequate reserve for property  operations.  At
the present time, the Partnership  does not anticipate  making  distributions to
the  limited  partners  in  1995.  There  can be no  assurance  as to  when  the
Partnership  will rebuild cash reserves judged adequate to resume  distributions
to the partners.

Long-term liquidity:
- - - - - -------------------

Only one  property,  Southpointe  Plaza  Shopping  Center,  is  encumbered  with
mortgage debt. the Partnership  will attempt to obtain  refinancing or extension
of the mortgage note when it matures in 1997.

While the outlook for  maintenance of adequate levels of liquidity is favorable,
should operations  deteriorate and present cash resources become insufficient to
fund current  needs,  the  Partnership  would  require  other sources of working
capital.  No  such  sources  have  been  identified.   The  Partnership  has  no
established  lines of credit from outside  sources.  Other  possible  actions to
resolve cash deficiencies include refinancings, deferral of capital expenditures
on Partnership properties except where improvements are expected to increase the
competitiveness  and marketability of the properties,  arranging  financing from
affiliates or the ultimate sale of the properties.  Sales and  refinancings  are
possibilities  only,  and there are at  present  no plans for any such  sales or
refinancings.

The General  Partner has  established a revolving  credit facility not to exceed
$5,000,000 in the aggregate  which is available on a "first-come,  first-served"
basis to the Partnership and other affiliated partnerships if certain conditions
are met. Borrowings under the facility may be used to fund deferred maintenance,
refinancing  obligations and working  capital needs.  There is no assurance that
the Partnership will receive any funds under the facility because no amounts are
reserved  for any  particular  partnership.  As of March  31,  1995,  $2,102,530
remained available for borrowing under the facility;  however,  additional funds
could become available as other partnerships repay existing borrowings.
