                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                         MARCH 31, 2002

                           (Unaudited)


(1)  The  condensed  statements included herein have been  prepared
     by  the Partnership, without audit, pursuant to the rules  and
     regulations  of  the Securities and Exchange  Commission,  and
     reflect   all  adjustments  which  are,  in  the  opinion   of
     management,  necessary to a fair statement of the  results  of
     operations for the interim period, on a basis consistent  with
     the  annual audited statements.  The adjustments made to these
     condensed   statements  consist  only  of   normal   recurring
     adjustments.   Certain information, accounting  policies,  and
     footnote    disclosures   normally   included   in   financial
     statements  prepared  in  accordance with  generally  accepted
     accounting principles have been condensed or omitted  pursuant
     to  such  rules  and  regulations,  although  the  Partnership
     believes  that  the  disclosures  are  adequate  to  make  the
     information  presented not misleading.  It is  suggested  that
     these  condensed financial statements be read  in  conjunction
     with  the  financial statements and the summary of significant
     accounting  policies  and  notes  thereto  included   in   the
     Partnership's latest annual report on Form 10-KSB.

(2)  Organization -

     AEI  Real  Estate Fund XVI Limited Partnership (Partnership)
     was  formed  to  acquire and lease commercial properties  to
     operating tenants.  The Partnership's operations are managed
     by AEI Fund Management XVI, Inc. (AFM), the Managing General
     Partner.    Robert  P.  Johnson,  the  President  and   sole
     shareholder of AFM, serves as the Individual General Partner
     and  an  affiliate of AFM, AEI Fund Management, Inc.  (AEI),
     performs the administrative and operating functions for  the
     Partnership.

     The   terms   of  the  Partnership  offering  call   for   a
     subscription  price of $1,000 per Limited Partnership  Unit,
     payable   on  acceptance  of  the  offer.   The  Partnership
     commenced  operations  on  February  6,  1987  when  minimum
     subscriptions    of   2,000   Limited   Partnership    Units
     ($2,000,000)  were  accepted.  The  offering  terminated  on
     November  6,  1987  when the maximum subscription  limit  of
     15,000  Limited  Partnership Units was reached.   Under  the
     terms  of  the  Limited Partnership Agreement,  the  Limited
     Partners   and   General  Partners  contributed   funds   of
     $15,000,000 and $1,000, respectively.

     During operations, any Net Cash Flow, as defined, which  the
     General Partners determine to distribute will be distributed
     90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the General Partners;
     provided,  however, that such distributions to  the  General
     Partners will be subordinated to the Limited Partners  first
     receiving an annual, noncumulative distribution of Net  Cash
     Flow equal to 10% of their Adjusted Capital Contribution, as
     defined,  and, provided further, that in no event  will  the
     General Partners receive less than 1% of such Net Cash  Flow
     per  annum.  Distributions to Limited Partners will be  made
     pro rata by Units.

(2)  Organization - (Continued)

     Any  Net  Proceeds  of Sale, as defined, from  the  sale  or
     financing of properties which the General Partners determine
     to distribute will, after provisions for debts and reserves,
     be  paid  in  the following manner:  (i) first, 99%  to  the
     Limited  Partners and 1% to the General Partners  until  the
     Limited  Partners  receive an amount  equal  to:  (a)  their
     Adjusted Capital Contribution plus (b) an amount equal to 6%
     of their Adjusted Capital Contribution per annum, cumulative
     but not compounded, to the extent not previously distributed
     from  Net  Cash Flow; (ii) next, 99% to the Limited Partners
     and  1%  to the General Partners until the Limited  Partners
     receive  an  amount equal to 14% of their  Adjusted  Capital
     Contribution  per annum, cumulative but not  compounded,  to
     the  extent not previously distributed; (iii) next,  to  the
     General  Partners  until  cumulative  distributions  to  the
     General  Partners under Items (ii) and (iii)  equal  15%  of
     cumulative  distributions to all Partners under  Items  (ii)
     and (iii).  Any remaining balance will be distributed 85% to
     the  Limited  Partners  and  15% to  the  General  Partners.
     Distributions to the Limited Partners will be made pro  rata
     by Units.

     For  tax  purposes,  profits  from  operations,  other  than
     profits  attributable  to  the  sale,  exchange,  financing,
     refinancing  or  other  disposition  of  property,  will  be
     allocated  first  in the same ratio in  which,  and  to  the
     extent,  Net  Cash Flow is distributed to the  Partners  for
     such year.  Any additional profits will be allocated 90%  to
     the  Limited  Partners and 10% to the General Partners.   In
     the  event  no Net Cash Flow is distributed to  the  Limited
     Partners,  90%  of each item of income, gain or  credit  for
     each  respective  year  shall be allocated  to  the  Limited
     Partners,  and 10% of each such item shall be  allocated  to
     the  General Partners.  Net losses from operations  will  be
     allocated 98% to the Limited Partners and 2% to the  General
     Partners.

     For  tax purposes, profits arising from the sale, financing,
     or  other  disposition  of property  will  be  allocated  in
     accordance  with the Partnership Agreement as  follows:  (i)
     first,  to  those  Partners with deficit balances  in  their
     capital  accounts  in an amount equal to  the  sum  of  such
     deficit  balances; (ii) second, 99% to the Limited  Partners
     and  1%  to the General Partners until the aggregate balance
     in  the Limited Partners' capital accounts equals the sum of
     the Limited Partners' Adjusted Capital Contributions plus an
     amount  equal to 14% of their Adjusted Capital Contributions
     per  annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not
     previously  allocated; (iii) third, to the General  Partners
     until  cumulative allocations to the General Partners  equal
     15%  of cumulative allocations.  Any remaining balance  will
     be  allocated  85% to the Limited Partners and  15%  to  the
     General  Partners.   Losses will be  allocated  98%  to  the
     Limited Partners and 2% to the General Partners.

     The  General Partners are not required to currently  fund  a
     deficit capital balance. Upon liquidation of the Partnership
     or  withdrawal  by  a General Partner, the General  Partners
     will  contribute to the Partnership an amount equal  to  the
     lesser of the deficit balances in their capital accounts  or
     1%  of total Limited Partners' and General Partners' capital
     contributions.

(3)  Investments in Real Estate -

     In November, 2000, the Partnership sold 9,576 square feet of
     land  from  the  Fuddruckers' property in  Omaha,  Nebraska,
     pursuant to a Right-Of-Way Agreement with the City of  Omaha
     Public  Works.   The Partnership received  net  proceeds  of
     $216,593,  which  resulted  in  a  gain  of  $168,838.   The
     original  cost  of  the  parcel of land  was  $47,755.   The
     Partnership believed the City of Omaha undervalued the  land
     and  negotiated  to receive additional proceeds.   In  March
     2002,  the City of Omaha approved a settlement and paid  the
     Partnership  additional  gross proceeds  of  $69,795,  which
     resulted in a net gain of $59,273.

     Due  to  the  redevelopment of the  roads  adjacent  to  the
     Fuddruckers' property and proceeds received from the city of
     Omaha   for   easements  during  such   redevelopment,   the
     Partnership  agreed  to  a temporary  modification  of  rent
     payments through March 31, 2002.  For the three months ended
     March  31,  2002 and the year ended December 31,  2001,  the
     modification resulted in a reduction of base rent of  $6,410
     and $43,002, respectively.  Due to the permanent changes  to
     the  property  and the proceeds received from  the  city  of
     Omaha, the Partnership may consider a long-term modification
     of the Lease.

     During  the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001,  the
     Partnership  distributed $114,940 and $181,581 of  net  sale
     proceeds   to  the  Limited  and  General  Partners,   which
     represented  a  return of capital of $8.58  and  $13.44  per
     Limited  Partnership Unit, respectively.  The  remainder  of
     the sale proceeds will be distributed in future periods.

     In  August,  2000, Renaissant Development Corp.  (RDC),  the
     lessee of the Applebee's restaurant in Victoria, Texas filed
     for reorganization.  RDC closed the restaurant, rejected the
     Lease  and  returned  possession  of  the  property  to  the
     Partnership.  As a result, the Partnership did  not  collect
     scheduled rent of $40,800 for the first three months of 2002
     and  2001.   These  amounts were not accrued  for  financial
     reporting purposes.  The Partnership has listed the property
     for  sale  or  lease.   While the property  is  vacant,  the
     Partnership is responsible for real estate taxes  and  other
     costs required to maintain the property.

     As  of  December  31, 2000, based on an analysis  of  market
     conditions in the area, it was determined the fair value  of
     the  Victoria property was approximately $800,000.   In  the
     fourth  quarter  of  2000, a charge to operations  for  real
     estate  impairment of $353,062 was recognized, which is  the
     difference  between the book value at December 31,  2000  of
     $1,153,062  and the estimated fair value of  $800,000.   The
     charge  was  recorded against the cost of the  building  and
     equipment.

     In April, 2002, the Partnership received an offer to buy the
     restaurant for $725,000 from an unrelated third  party.   In
     the  first quarter of 2002, a charge to operations for  real
     estate impairment of $106,745 was recognized, which was  the
     difference  between  the book value at  March  31,  2002  of
     $776,745  and the estimated net sales proceeds of  $670,000.
     The  charge  was recorded against the cost of the  land  and
     building.   At  March 31, 2002, the land and  building  were
     classified as Real Estate Held for Sale.

(4)  Payable to AEI Fund Management -

     AEI  Fund  Management, Inc. performs the administrative  and
     operating functions for the Partnership.  The payable to AEI
     Fund   Management  represents  the  balance  due  for  those
     services.    This  balance  is  non-interest   bearing   and
     unsecured  and  is  to  be  paid in  the  normal  course  of
     business.

(5)  Deferred Income -

     In  June,  1994, Fuddruckers, Inc., the restaurant concept's
     franchisor,  acquired  the  operations  of  the  Fuddruckers
     restaurant  in  Omaha,  Nebraska  and  assumed   the   lease
     obligations  from  the  original lessee.   As  part  of  the
     agreement,  the Partnership amended the Lease to reduce  the
     base  rent from $167,699 to $145,081.  The Partnership could
     receive  additional  rent in the  future  if  10%  of  gross
     receipts  from  the  property  exceed  the  base  rent.   In
     consideration  for the lease assumption and  amendment,  the
     Partnership  received a lump sum payment from  the  original
     lessee of $159,539.  The lump sum payment will be recognized
     as  income  over  the  remainder of the  Lease  term,  which
     expires  on  November  30,  2007, using  the  straight  line
     method.

     As  of March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, the Partnership
     had recognized $92,163 and $89,190 of the payment as income.
     At  March 31, 2002, the remaining deferred income of  $1,819
     was  prepaid  rent  related  to  certain  other  Partnership
     properties.


ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Results of Operations

        For  the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001,  the
Partnership  recognized rental income of $105,984  and  $116,097,
respectively.   During the same periods, the  Partnership  earned
investment income of $3,578 and $34,905, respectively.  In  2002,
investment  income decreased due to lower money  market  interest
rates  and the Partnership had less money invested due to a large
distribution of sales proceeds in June, 2001.

        In  August, 2000, Renaissant Development Corp. (RDC), the
lessee of the Applebee's restaurant in Victoria, Texas filed  for
reorganization.   RDC closed the restaurant, rejected  the  Lease
and returned possession of the property to the Partnership.  As a
result, the Partnership did not collect scheduled rent of $40,800
for  the first three months of 2002 and 2001.  These amounts were
not  accrued  for financial reporting purposes.  The  Partnership
has listed the property for sale or lease.  While the property is
vacant, the Partnership is responsible for real estate taxes  and
other costs required to maintain the property.

        As  of  December 31, 2000, based on an analysis of market
conditions in the area, it was determined the fair value  of  the
Victoria  property  was approximately $800,000.   In  the  fourth
quarter  of  2000,  a  charge  to  operations  for  real   estate
impairment  of  $353,062 was recognized, which is the  difference
between the book value at December 31, 2000 of $1,153,062 and the
estimated  fair  value  of  $800,000.  The  charge  was  recorded
against the cost of the building and equipment.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS  (Continued)

        In  April, 2002, the Partnership received an offer to buy
the  restaurant for $725,000 from an unrelated third  party.   In
the first quarter of 2002, a charge to operations for real estate
impairment  of $106,745 was recognized, which was the  difference
between  the  book  value at March 31, 2002 of $776,745  and  the
estimated  net  sales  proceeds  of  $670,000.   The  charge  was
recorded against the cost of the land and building.  At March 31,
2002,  the land and building were classified as Real Estate  Held
for Sale.

       During the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, the
Partnership   paid   Partnership   administration   expenses   to
affiliated  parties of $56,594 and $51,249, respectively.   These
administration  expenses  include  costs  associated   with   the
management of the properties, processing distributions, reporting
requirements and correspondence to the Limited Partners.   During
the   same   periods,   the  Partnership   incurred   Partnership
administration  and property management expenses  from  unrelated
parties  of  $24,158 and $25,021, respectively.   These  expenses
represent  direct payments to third parties for legal and  filing
fees,  direct administrative costs, outside audit and  accounting
costs, taxes, insurance and other property costs.

        As  of March 31, 2002, the Partnership's annualized  cash
distribution  rate  was  6.0%,  based  on  the  Adjusted  Capital
Contribution.   Distributions of Net Cash  Flow  to  the  General
Partners were subordinated to the Limited Partners as required in
the  Partnership  Agreement.  As a result, 99%  of  distributions
were  allocated  to  Limited  Partners  and  1%  to  the  General
Partners.

        Inflation  has  had  a  minimal  effect  on  income  from
operations.   Leases  may contain rent increases,  based  on  the
increase  in  the  Consumer Price Index over a specified  period,
which  will result in an increase in rental income over the  term
of  the  leases.   In addition, leases may contain  rent  clauses
which  entitle  the  Partnership to receive  additional  rent  in
future  years  if gross receipts for the property exceed  certain
specified  amounts.  Increases in sales volumes of  the  tenants,
due to inflation and real sales growth, may result in an increase
in rental income over the term of the leases.  Inflation also may
cause the real estate to appreciate in value.  However, inflation
and  changing prices may have an adverse impact on the  operating
margins  of  the  properties' tenants, which could  impair  their
ability  to  pay rent and subsequently reduce the Net  Cash  Flow
available for distributions.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


        During  the  three  months  ended  March  31,  2002,  the
Partnership's  cash balances decreased $89,400  as  a  result  of
distributions  made  in excess of cash generated  from  operating
activities which were partially offset by cash generated from the
sale  of  property.   Net Cash provided by  operating  activities
decreased from $74,681 in 2001 to $(7,896) in 2002 as a result of
a   decrease   in   income   and  an  increase   in   Partnership
administration expenses in 2002.

        In  the first three months of 2002, net cash provided  by
investing  activities  was $59,273 which  represented  cash  flow
generated from the sale of real estate.

        In November, 2000, the Partnership sold 9,576 square feet
of  land  from  the  Fuddruckers' property  in  Omaha,  Nebraska,
pursuant  to  a  Right-Of-Way Agreement with the  City  of  Omaha
Public Works.  The Partnership received net proceeds of $216,593,
which  resulted in a gain of $168,838.  The original cost of  the
parcel of land was $47,755.  The Partnership believed the City of
Omaha  undervalued the land and negotiated to receive  additional
proceeds.  In March 2002, the City of Omaha approved a settlement
and  paid  the Partnership additional gross proceeds of  $69,795,
which resulted in a net gain of $59,273.


ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS  (Continued)


        Due  to  the redevelopment of the roads adjacent  to  the
Fuddruckers'  property and proceeds received  from  the  city  of
Omaha  for  easements during such redevelopment, the  Partnership
agreed to a temporary modification of rent payments through March
31, 2002.  For the three months ended March 31, 2002 and the year
ended December 31, 2001, the modification resulted in a reduction
of  base  rent of $6,410 and $43,002, respectively.  Due  to  the
permanent changes to the property and the proceeds received  from
the  city  of  Omaha,  the Partnership may consider  a  long-term
modification of the Lease.

       During the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, the
Partnership  distributed  $114,940  and  $181,581  of  net   sale
proceeds to the Limited and General Partners, which represented a
return  of  capital  of $8.58 and $13.44 per Limited  Partnership
Unit,  respectively.  The remainder of the sale proceeds will  be
distributed in future periods.

       The Partnership's primary use of cash flow is distribution
and  redemption  payments to Partners.  The Partnership  declares
its  regular  quarterly  distributions before  the  end  of  each
quarter and pays the distribution in the first week after the end
of  each quarter.  The Partnership attempts to maintain a  stable
distribution  rate from quarter to quarter.  Redemption  payments
are  paid  to  redeeming Partners in the fourth quarter  of  each
year.   In 2002, distributions were lower, when compared to 2001,
mainly because more sales proceeds were distributed in 2001.

        The  Partnership may acquire Units from Limited  Partners
who  have tendered their Units to the Partnership. Such Units may
be  acquired at a discount.  The Partnership is not obligated  to
purchase  in  any  year  more than 5%  of  the  number  of  Units
outstanding at the beginning of the year.  In no event shall  the
Partnership  be  obligated to purchase  Units  if,  in  the  sole
discretion  of the Managing General Partner, such purchase  would
impair the capital or operation of the Partnership.

        During  2001, nine Limited Partners redeemed a  total  of
105.80  Partnership  Units for $26,612  in  accordance  with  the
Partnership  Agreement.   The Partnership  acquired  these  Units
using Net Cash Flow from operations.  In prior years, a total  of
165  Limited  Partners  redeemed 1,629.35 Partnership  Units  for
$1,088,794.   The  redemptions  increase  the  remaining  Limited
Partners' ownership interest in the Partnership.

       The continuing rent payments from the properties, together
with  cash  generated from property sales, should be adequate  to
fund   continuing   distributions  and  meet  other   Partnership
obligations on both a short-term and long-term basis.
