(1)  BUSINESS

Centennial Mortgage Income Fund II (the "Partnership") has
historically invested in commercial, industrial and residential
income-producing real property through mortgage investments
consisting of participating first mortgage loans, other equity
participation loans, construction loans, and wrap-around and
other junior loans.  The Partnership's underwriting policy for
granting credit was to fund loans secured by first and second
deeds of trust on real property.  The Partnership's area of
concentration is in California.

As of September 30, 1997, most of the loans secured by operating
properties have been repaid to the Partnership.  However, during
recent years, real estate market values for undeveloped land in
California have declined severely.  As the loans secured by
undeveloped land became delinquent, the Partnership elected to
foreclose on certain of these loans, thereby increasing real
estate owned balances.  As a result, the Partnership has become a
direct investor in this real estate and intends to manage
operating properties and develop raw land until such time as the
Partnership is able to sell this real estate owned.

As required by the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership is
currently in the repayment stage, and as a result, cash proceeds
from mortgage investments are no longer available for
reinvestment.

(2)  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements are unaudited and reflect
all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals,
which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
statement of the results of operations for the interim periods.
Results for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 are
not necessarily indicative of results which may be expected for
any other interim period, or for the year as a whole.

Information pertaining to the nine months ended September 30,
1997 and 1996 is unaudited and condensed inasmuch as it does not
include all related footnote disclosures.

The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include
all information and footnotes necessary for fair presentation of
financial position, results of operations and cash flows in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.  Notes
to consolidated financial statements included in Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1996 on file with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, provide additional disclosures and a further
description of accounting policies.

Net Loss per Limited Partnership Unit

Net loss per limited partnership unit was based on the weighted
average number of limited partnership units outstanding of 29,141
for all periods presented.

Impaired Loans

The Partnership considers a loan to be impaired when based upon
current information and events, it believes it is probable that
the Partnership will be unable to collect all amounts due
according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  In
determining impairment, the Partnership considers large non-
homogeneous loans including nonaccrual loans, troubled debt
restructuring and performing loans which exhibit, among other
characteristics, high loan-to-value ratios, low debt-coverage
ratios, or other indications that the borrowers are experiencing
increased levels of financial difficulty.  The Partnership bases
the measurement of collateral-dependent impaired loans on the
fair value of the loan's collateral.  The amount by which the
recorded investment of the loan exceeds the measure of the
impaired loan's value is recognized by recording a valuation
allowance.

At September 30, 1997, the carrying value of loans that are
considered to be impaired under SFAS 114 totaled $848,000 (all of
which were on nonaccrual status).  At September 30, 1997, there
was no allowance for possible loan losses determined in
accordance with the provisions of SFAS 114, related to loans
considered impaired under SFAS 114 recorded by the Partnership.
However, the unconsolidated investees have recorded an allowance
for losses of $4,019,000 and the Partnership's proportionate
share of losses in unconsolidated investees reflects the majority



                             10
of this allowance.  There was a $177,000 investment in impaired
loans of this allowance.  There was a $177,000 investment in
impaired loans during the nine months ended September 30, 1997.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Partnership
recognized no interest income nor cash basis income on these
impaired loans.

Carrying Value of Real Estate Owned, Held for Sale

Effective January 1, 1996, the Partnership adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be
Disposed Of" ("SFAS 121").  SFAS 121 supersedes SOP 92-3 and also
requires that long-lived assets to be disposed of be reported at
the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
An impairment loss shall be measured as the amount by which the
carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the assets
less costs to sell.  SFAS 121 requires that assets to be disposed
of not be depreciated while they are held for disposal.  The
Partnership considers all real estate owned as held for sale and
is actively marketing all properties.

Real estate owned consists of the following:
                                     (dollars in thousands)

                             11
In accordance with SFAS 121, the Partnership carries real estate
owned, held for sale, at the lower of carrying amount or fair
value less costs to sell.  The estimated fair values were
determined by using appraisals, discounted cash flows and/or
other valuation techniques.  The actual market price of real
estate can only be determined by negotiation between independent
third parties in a sales transaction.

(4)  TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Under the provisions of the Partnership Agreement, the general
partners are to receive compensation for their services in
supervising the affairs of the Partnership.  This partnership
management compensation shall be equal to 10 percent of the cash
available for distribution, as defined in the Partnership
Agreement.  The general partners will not receive this
compensation until the limited partners have received a 12
percent per annum cumulative return on their adjusted invested
capital, but are entitled to receive a 5 percent interest in cash
available for distribution in any year until this provision has
been met.  Adjusted invested capital is defined as the original
capital invested less distributions from mortgage reductions.
Payments to the general partners have been limited to 5 percent
of cash available for distribution as the limited partners have
not received their 12 percent per annum cumulative return.  Under
this provision of the Partnership Agreement, no distributions
were paid to the general partners during the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 or 1996.

The Partnership owns 50 percent of the outstanding capital stock
of two corporations which have not been consolidated in the
accompanying financial statements, LCR Development, Inc., ("LCR")
and BKS Development Inc., ("BKS").  The balance of outstanding
capital stock in these corporations is owned by Centennial
Mortgage Income Fund, ("CMIF").  LCR has invested in a joint
venture, Silverwood Homes ("Silverwood") which is constructing
homes in Lancaster, California.  The Partnership has participated
in making several loans to these corporations and this joint
venture.  Under the equity method of accounting, these loans are
a component of the Partnership's investment in LCR and BKS, and
therefore, the Partnership has recorded losses by LCR and BKS as
a reduction of the carrying value of these loans receivable.  The
Partnership wrote off its investment and loan receivable from BKS
during 1996 when its share of losses equaled its investment and
the recovery of any of its investment became unlikely.




                            12
The Partnership holds a 50 percent participation in an unsecured
note in the amount of $2,115,000 due from LCR.  The Partnership's
share of the note at September 30, 1997 is $1,059,000 and the
Partnership had applied $1,059,000 a portion of the cumulative
losses from unconsolidated investees against the carrying value
of the note as of that same date.  The Partnership has not
accrued its share of interest on this note which was
approximately $303,000 as of September 30, 1997.

Silverwood began constructing a model home complex in June 1995.
Construction commenced in September 1995 on Phase I and February
1997 on Phase II at the project.  At September 30, 1997, the
Partnership holds a 50 percent participation in three notes due
from Silverwood consisting of a land development loan, a model
home loan and a home construction loan secured by Phase I.  The
Partnership's disbursed balance of the $3,265,700 development
loan at September 30, 1997 is $942,000 and the Partnership had
applied $343,000, the balance of cumulative losses from
unconsolidated investees against the carrying value of the note
as of the same date.  The Partnership's disbursed balance of the
$490,000 model loan at September 30, 1997 is $245,000.  At
September 30, 1997, the Partnership's disbursed balance of the
$1,034,000 Phase I construction loan is $4,000.

The consolidated balance sheet and income statement of LCR have
not been consolidated in the Partnership's financial statements.
The Partnership accounts for its investment in this corporation
using the equity method.  The following represents condensed
financial information for LCR Development, Inc. at September 30,
1997 and for the nine months ended September 30, 1997:

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

GENERAL

The Partnership had net losses and losses per limited partnership
unit of $(485,000) and $(16.64) for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 and $(1,183,000) and $(40.60) for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996, respectively.  The decrease in
losses from 1996 to 1997 is primarily the result of a decrease in
share of losses in unconsolidated investees due to the charge-off
of the 283 acres in Bakersfield owned by BKS during 1996 and the
provision for losses recorded by Silverwood.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At September 30, 1997, the Partnership had $111,000 in
unrestricted cash and interest-bearing deposits.  The Partnership
had no unfunded loan commitments to nonaffiliates at September
30, 1997.  Sources of funds are expected to be from the sale of
real estate owned.  Future operations of real estate owned are
not expected to be a significant source of funds.  The
Partnership funded advances on loans to unconsolidated investees
totaling $177,000 and received payoffs and paydowns on loans
totaling $291,000 during the nine months ended September 30,
1997.

The Partnership's notes payable commitments for the next year
consist of interest and principal payments due of approximately
$58,000 payable during the next twelve months.  In addition to
the note payable commitments, the Partnership's principal capital
requirements include: (i) real property taxes on real estate
owned of approximately $699,000 payable and delinquent during the
next twelve months, and (ii) selling, general and administrative
costs.  The Partnership can apply for a 5 year redemption plan on
a portion of the property taxes due in 1997 to ease liquidity
constraints if necessary.  These commitments are expected to be
paid from existing cash balances and the sale of real estate
owned.  The Partnership has entered into contracts to sell all of
its proposed marina and condominium project in Redwood City, a
portion of its 45 acre project in Sacramento, the 10.66 acres in
Roseville and has been negotiating with several other buyers on
other projects.  All of these potential transactions are subject
to numerous contingencies and uncertainties and there is no
assurance that any of them will ultimately close escrow.  The
Partnership expects to be able to sell this real estate owned to
meet liquidity needs.

The Partnership is continuously evaluating various alternative
strategies for liquidating its real estate assets under current
market conditions.  These alternative strategies include the
potential joint venture and/or build out of certain of the
Partnership's properties in order to increase their marketability
and maximize the return to the limited partners.  In the event
the Partnership decides to implement some of these strategies, it
may require the investment of proceeds received from the payoff
of existing loans and the sale of other real estate assets.  The
decision to invest additional cash in existing assets will only
be made if, based on management's best judgment at the time,
there is a clear indication that such investment should generate
a significantly greater return to the limited partners than any
other strategies available to the Partnership.

Effective with the third quarter of 1991, the Partnership
suspended cash distributions to partners due to a decline in
liquidity and the uncertainty of the cash requirements for
existing and potential real estate owned.  Pursuant to the
Partnership Agreement, 60 months after the closing of the
offering, cash proceeds from mortgage investments are no longer
available for reinvestment by the Partnership.  Management
believes that current and projected liquidity is sufficient to
fund operating expenses and to meet the contractual obligations
and cash flow operating requirements of the Partnership.
However, the Partnership needs to improve liquidity through the
sale of real estate owned in order to allocate funds to improve
and to fulfill the operating requirements of the remaining real
estate owned by the Partnership on a long-term basis.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

During recent years, most of the nonaffiliated loans have been
repaid to the Partnership and interest income on loans to
nonaffiliates is no longer a major contributor to the
Partnership's revenue.  Interest income on loans to
nonaffiliates, including fees was $16,000 and $6,000 for the nine
and three months ended September 30, 1997 and $16,000 and $8,000
for the nine and three months ended September 30, 1996,
respectively.

Interest income on loans to unconsolidated investees, including
fees totaled $81,000 and $30,000 for the nine and three months
ended September 30, 1996.  There was no comparable income for the
same periods in 1997 due to the loans to unconsolidated investees
being placed on nonaccrual.  Interest income on loans to
unconsolidated investees represents interest earned on the
Silverwood loans.

The outstanding principal balance of loans on nonaccrual at
September 30, 1997 and 1996 totaled $848,000 and $1,190,000,
respectively.  Loans on "nonaccrual" refers to loans upon which
the Partnership is no longer accruing interest.  Management's
policy is to cease accruing interest on loans when interest
and/or principal repayments become 90 days past due.  Had
interest accrued throughout the first nine months of 1997 and
1996 on the affiliated nonaccrued loans, interest income would
have been approximately $149,000 and $285,000 higher than was
actually reported for those periods.

The real estate owned balance at September 30, 1997 and 1996 was
$11,316,000.

The following sections entitled Nonaccrual Loans and Real Estate
Owned provide a detailed analysis of these assets.

NONACCRUAL LOANS

During 1994, the Partnership converted a 50 percent participation
in a note secured by a second trust deed into a 50 percent
participation in a $2,115,000 unsecured note representing a
workout loan due from LCR, an affiliate.  This loan and an
additional loan funded by CMIF reflect the majority of the cost
basis of single family lots contributed to Silverwood Homes.
LCR's only source of repayment of this note is proceeds from the
sale of the fully developed lots.  Management has estimated the
proceeds for repayment of this note to be less than the original
principal balance of the loan.  As a result, the loan has been
placed on nonaccrual.  The participating principal balance and
nonaccrued interest balances at September 30, 1997 are $1,059,000
and $303,000, respectively.  As discussed in note 4, the
Partnership has reduced the carrying value of this note by
$1,059,000, a portion of its share of losses from this
unconsolidated investee.

During 1994 and 1995, LCR evaluated various alternative
strategies for liquidating its investment in the 179 lots in
Lancaster.  During 1994, LCR determined that its best course of
action appeared to be the full-scale buildout and sale of single-
family homes since the market for finished lots had fallen so
significantly.  LCR obtained construction financing commitments
from CMIF and the Partnership and entered into a joint venture
agreement entitled Silverwood with Home Devco to construct and
sell single-family homes a the project.  The joint venture began
constructing a model home complex at the project in June 1995.
Construction commenced in September 1995 on Phase I at the
project.  At September 30, 1997, the Partnership holds a 50
percent participation in three notes due from Silverwood
consisting of a land development loan, a model home loan and a
home construction loan with a combined disbursed balance of
$1,191,000.  The Partnership's disbursed balance of the
$3,265,700 development loan at September 30, 1997 is $942,000.
The Partnership had applied $343,000 of cumulative losses from
unconsolidated investees against the carrying value of the note
as of the same date.  The Partnership's disbursed balance of the
$490,000 model loan at September 30, 1997 is $245,000.  The
Partnership's disbursed balance of the $1,034,000 Phase I
construction loan at September 30, 1997 is $4,000.

Sales volumes of new homes in the Lancaster area have continued
to decline since 1995 while sales prices have remained relatively
flat and construction costs have increased.  This has caused a
further decline in the value of finished lots and a reduction in
the anticipated net proceeds the Partnership expects to realize
from the buildout of homes at the project.  Additionally,
Silverwood closed escrow on only eight homes as of the date of
this report, far less than originally anticipated.  As a result
of these factors, LCR has recorded a $4,019,000 allowance for
losses on real estate investments.

REAL ESTATE OWNED

A description of the Partnership's principal real estate owned
follows:

Office Building in San Bernardino, California

The Partnership funded a loan during January 1988 with an
original committed amount of $921,000 which was secured by a
second trust deed on an office building comprised of 15,894
square feet of rentable space located in San Bernardino,
California.  The loan was provided as gap financing behind a
first deed of trust in the amount of $350,000 to another
financial institution.  The borrower was unable to payoff the
loan at maturity and the Partnership foreclosed on April 20,
1993.  The Partnership restructured the note secured by the first
trust deed to a more favorable term and rate.  The project is 72
percent leased and generated net operating income before debt
service of $25,000 during the first nine months of 1997.  The
property is being marketed for sale.  The net carrying value at
September 30, 1997 was $825,000 before allowance for possible
losses.  The Partnership has recorded a $250,000 allowance for
losses related to this property as of September 30, 1997.  The
property is encumbered by a fully amortizing note secured by a
first trust deed of $109,000 which will be paid off on December
31, 1999.

45 Acres in Sacramento, California

The Partnership funded a loan in 1987 with a committed amount of
$4,000,000 secured by a first trust deed on 44.52 acres in
Sacramento, California.  The loan was provided for the
development of offsite improvements.  The maturity date was
February 1, 1991.  The borrower was unable to obtain construction
financing and bring interest current.  The Partnership accepted a
grant deed on the property on March 10, 1992.  The property is
zoned for multi-family and light industrial use.  A portion of
the property is adjacent to Highway 99 and has good freeway
visibility.  The property is listed for sale and there has been
an increase in activity.  The Partnership has entered into an
escrow involving the sale of approximately 6.7 acres of the
property.  The sales price of the 6.7 acres is $430,000, all
cash.  The buyer has made a $30,000 deposit against the purchase
price which has been released to the Partnership and has become
nonrefundable in the event the escrow does not close.  This
escrow was originally entered into in 1995 and was subject to the
buyer's receipt of approvals for senior housing tax credits.
These credits have just recently been received.  The sale is
expected to close escrow prior to the end of 1997, however there
is no assurance that it will actually close by that date, if at
all.  The escrow discussed above involves a portion of the
property which does not have freeway visibility.  At September
30, 1997, the carrying value before allowance for possible losses
was $4,128,000.  The Partnership has recorded a $584,000
allowance for losses related to this property as of September 30,
1997.  A second sales escrow discussed in the Partnership's Form
10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 has been cancelled due
to the buyer's failure to obtain certain tax credits.

Proposed Marina and Condominiums in Redwood City, California

On April 7, 1989, the Partnership foreclosed on a land loan
located in Redwood City, California with an original committed
amount of $3,487,000.  The purpose of the loan was to acquire the
land and provide for the planning of a 122-slip marina plus an
office building and restaurant.  The original maturity date of
October 21, 1986 was extended to March 1, 1987.  In March 1987,
the borrower filed bankruptcy.  The property is included in real
estate owned at its carrying value of $5,360,000.   Management
obtained an extension on the 404B1 permit for the marina through
March 1999.  The 404B1 permit enables the owner to build the
currently proposed 104-slip boat marina.  The Partnership has
completed approximately 70 percent of the dredging of the marina
site.  The property is currently in escrow for a purchase price
of $4,000,000.  Close of escrow is scheduled for December 31,
1997 with extensions to March 31, 1998.  However, the sale is
still subject to several significant contingencies, including but
not limited to an issue which has recently been discovered
regarding the Partnership's right to access the property over a
private road.  The resolution of this access issue is critical to
the consummation of this transaction and could materially reduce
the net proceeds from the sale or cause the sale to not be
completed.  The Partnership has recorded a $1,651,000 allowance
for losses related to this property as of September 30, 1997.

10.66 Acres in Roseville, California

The Partnership funded a loan in 1990 with an original committed
amount of $2,779,000 secured by a second deed of trust on 982
acres in Roseville, California.  The borrower failed to make the
required yearly principal payment to the first and second trust
deed holders.  The first trust deed holder filed a notice of
default for nonpayment.  Management negotiated a settlement
agreement to accept a 10.66 acre commercial site as payment in
full for the $2,779,000 note.  This property had a carrying value
at September 30, 1997 of $1,003,000 and has no additional debt.
This area has seen an increase in residential development since
1996 which has increased interest in this property.  The property
is currently in escrow for a purchase price of $1,200,000.  Close
of escrow is scheduled for May 29, 1998.  However, there is no
assurance that this escrow will actually close.  The Partnership
has recorded a $60,000 allowance for losses related to this
property as of September 30, 1997.

INTEREST ON INTEREST-BEARING DEPOSITS

Interest on interest-bearing deposits totaled $4,000 and zero for
the nine and three months ended September 30, 1997 and $18,000
and $4,000 for the nine and three months ended September 30,
1996, respectively.  Interest on interest-bearing deposits
represents interest earned on Partnership funds invested, for
liquidity, in time certificate and money market deposits.  The
decrease in income on interest-bearing deposits is principally
due to decreased cash balances for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997.

INCOME FROM OPERATIONS OF REAL ESTATE OWNED

Income from operations of real estate owned consists of operating
revenues of $98,000 and $33,000 for the nine and three months
ended September 30, 1997 and $95,000 and $33,000 for the nine and
three months ended September 30, 1996, respectively.  The 1997
and 1996 revenues are from the office building in San Bernardino.

PROVISION FOR POSSIBLE LOSSES

There was no provision for possible losses for the nine and three
months ended September 30, 1997 or 1996.  The provision for
possible losses results from the change in the allowance for
possible losses on real estate owned net of charge-offs, if any.
Management believes that the allowance for possible loan losses
at September 30, 1997 is adequate to absorb the known and
inherent risk in the Partnership's loan and real estate owned
portfolio.

SHARE OF LOSSES IN UNCONSOLIDATED INVESTEES

The Partnership has invested in corporations in which it has less
than a majority ownership and accounts for these investments
using the equity method.  The Partnership's share of provision
for losses recorded by unconsolidated investees was $515,000 and
$165,000 for the nine and three months ended September 30, 1996.
There was no share of provision for losses recorded by
unconsolidated investees for the nine and three months ended
September 30, 1997.  The Partnership's share of other losses
recorded by unconsolidated investees was $91,000 and $37,000 for
the nine and three months ended September 30, 1997 and $341,000
and $104,000 for the nine and three months ended September 30,
1996, respectively.  The share of other losses during 1996
consists primarily of interest expense related to the 283 acres
in Bakersfield owned by BKS and marketing and administrative
expenses incurred by LCR.  The decrease for 1997 is due to the
write off of the 283 acres in Bakersfield owned by BKS during
1996 and no share of provision for losses recorded by
unconsolidated investees in 1997.

OTHER EXPENSES

Operating expenses from operations of real estate owned were
$63,000 and $26,000 for the nine and three months ended September
30, 1997 and $58,000 and $23,000 for the nine and three months
ended September 30, 1996, respectively.  These expenses were
associated with the office building in San Bernardino.

Operating expenses from operations of real estate owned paid to
affiliates were $9,000 and $3,000 for the nine and three months
ended September 30, 1997 and $9,000 and $3,000 for the nine and
three months ended September 30, 1996, respectively.  The
operating expenses consist of property management fees paid to an
affiliate.

Expenses associated with non-operating real estate owned were
$247,000 and $64,000 for the nine and three months ended
September 30, 1997 and $262,000 and $79,000 for the nine and
three months ended September 30, 1996, respectively.  The
expenses relate to the proposed marina and condominiums in
Redwood City, the 45 acres in Sacramento, and the 10.66 acres in
Roseville.  A substantial portion of these expenses ($167,000
during the nine months ended September 30, 1997) represents real
property taxes.  The decrease for 1997 is primarily due to a
decrease in property taxes due to retroactive assessment
decreases and refunds from previous periods.
Depreciation and amortization expense was $4,000 and $1,000 for
the nine and three months ended September 30, 1997 and $7,000 and
$3,000 for the nine and three months ended September 30, 1996,
respectively.

Interest expense was $10,000 and $4,000 for the nine and three
months ended September 30, 1997 and $12,000 and $4,000 for the
nine and three months ended September 30, 1996, respectively.
The interest expense relates to the office building in San
Bernardino.  The decrease for 1997 is due to the amortization of
the note secured by the office building in San Bernardino.

General and administrative expenses, affiliates totaled $141,000
and $45,000 for the nine and three months ended September 30,
1997 and $132,000 and $44,000 for the nine and three months ended
September 30, 1996, respectively.  These expenses are primarily
salary allocation reimbursements paid to affiliates.  The
increase in 1997 is attributable to the increased sales activity
related to negotiations on pending escrows.

General and administrative expenses, nonaffiliates totaled
$49,000 and $21,000 for the nine and three months ended September
30, 1997 and $57,000 and $16,000 for the nine and three months
ended September 30, 1996, respectively.  These expenses consist
of other costs associated with the administration of the
Partnership and real estate owned.  The decrease for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 is primarily due to a decrease in
moving expenses, office expenses and investor printing paid
during the first quarter of 1996.
