ITEM 2:   Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On January 31, 2002, the Partnership sold The Meadows II (Phases
II, III & IV) Apartments located at 225 Thompson Drive in the city
of Madison, county of Dane, Wisconsin (the "Property") in a
transaction that was structured so as to qualify as a like-kind
exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code.  In the
transaction, the Partnership transferred the property to Associated
Bank Milwaukee (a "Qualified Intermediary"), who in turn
transferred the property to T.P. Meadows Apartments, LLC (the
"Buyer").  The purchase price of $15,956,436 was paid in cash at
the closing pursuant to an Option to Purchase the Property dated
September 10, 2001. The net proceeds of approximately $6.7 million
(after pay-off of the mortgage of approximately $8.8 million,
mortgage prepayment penalty, sales commissions, closing prorations,
and related expenses) are being held by the Qualified Intermediary
pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement between the
Partnership and the Qualified Intermediary and are intended to be
used for the acquisition of a replacement property.

There is no material relationship between the Buyer and the
Partnership or any of its affiliates, any General Partner, director
or officer of the Partnership, or any associate of any such General
Partner, director or officer.

The foregoing description of the sale of the Property does not
purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by
reference to the agreements between the parties, copies of which
are attached as Exhibits to this report.

       be conveyed subject to said liens, and the reference to such
       liens in the Title Commitment shall not be considered an
       objection.  In the event that the Buyer does not exercise the
       Option for the Property for the sole reason that the Seller's
       title is not merchantable, then the option fee paid by the
       Buyer for the Property shall be returned to the Buyer.  If the
       Buyer exercises this Option, the Buyer shall be deemed to have
       accepted title in the condition set forth in said Title
       Commitment (except for the first mortgage related liens which
       shall be paid off at Closing) and title shall be conveyed
       subject thereto.
The basic Title Commitment shall be at the Seller's expense and
include a Gap Endorsement and the general exceptions shall be
deleted from the Owner's Title Policy (except for any exceptions
relating to survey unless the Buyer at the Buyer's expense provides
a current survey acceptable to the Title Company for the removal of
same).  If the Buyer desires any other endorsements, the Buyer
shall obtain same at the Buyer's expense.
5.     Tenant Leases.  The Seller shall not accept prepaid rent for
       more than one (1) month in advance.  The Buyer shall receive
       a credit at Closing on the Closing Statement for all prepaid
       rents.  No free rent, rent concessions or rebates shall be
       applicable for periods after Closing.  At Closing, Buyer shall
       receive a credit on the Closing Statement against the Purchase
       Price for tenant security deposits held by Seller.  At
       Closing, the Seller and the Buyer shall execute an Assignment
       and Assumption of Leases wherein Seller shall assign all of
       its right, title and interest in and to all tenant leases
       affecting the Property as of Closing.  The Buyer shall
       indemnify and hold harmless the Seller from any liability
       under said tenant leases arising after the Closing and the
       Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer from any
       liability under said tenant leases arising on or before
       Closing.
6.     Service and Maintenance Contracts and Agreements.  At Closing,
       the Buyer shall assume all of the Seller's obligations under
       all of the service and maintenance contracts and agreements
       delivered to the Buyer under Paragraph 2 above.  The Buyer
       shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller from any and all
       liability under said contracts and agreements arising after
       the Closing.  The Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the
       Buyer from any and all liability under said contracts and
       agreements arising on or before Closing.

       Seller intends this transaction to be a like-kind exchange
       under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code.  It is

       enter into any new contracts, leases (other than Approved
       Leases, as hereinafter defined), easements or other agreements

3.     Assignment of Sale Agreements.  Exchangor hereby assigns to

Exchangor's right, title and interest in and to the Sale Agreement;
provided that Facilitator incurs no liability by virtue of such
assignment other than the obligation to receive and deliver the Net
Exchange Property Proceeds and documents in accordance with this
Agreement and that all representations, warranties and obligations
of the Exchangor under the Sale Agreement remain the sole
obligation of the Exchangor.  A copy of said Sale Agreement is
attached hereto as Exhibit G.  Facilitator shall give to the buyer
of the Exchange Property written notice of the assignment to
Facilitator of Exchangor's right, title and interest in and to the
Sale Agreement.  Such notice shall be given using the form attached
hereto as Exhibit B.
4.     Direct Transfer of Exchange Property.  In order to reduce
closing expenses, Facilitator shall execute a letter directing
Exchangor to transfer the Exchange Property to the buyer specified
in the Sale Agreement by executing a Warranty Deed and other
customary closing documents in the name of such buyer, pursuant to
the terms of the Sale Agreement, and by delivering the executed
Warranty Deed and other customary closing documents to Facilitator,
which shall deliver them to such buyer.  Such letter shall be in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit C.  Facilitator shall receive
from the buyer the net proceeds from the sale of the Exchange
Property (which net proceeds shall reflect the credits due to the
buyer and selling expenses due to Exchangor from the sale of the

5.     Deposit of Net Exchange Property Proceeds.  The net proceeds
from the transfer of the Exchange Property (hereinafter the "Net
Exchange Property Proceeds") shall be held by Facilitator subject
to the terms of this Agreement.  The Net Exchange Property Proceeds
shall be invested in an interest-bearing account at the
Facilitator.  Any interest earned on such account shall be added to
and included in Net Exchange Property Proceeds and as such shall be
subject to the restrictions set forth in Paragraph 6 below.  The
Exchangor's Social Security Number is 39-1518732.  It is understood
that the Facilitator shall pay from the proceeds it receives in
connection with the closing on the Exchange Property the commission

Exchange Property when so directed, and said amount shall not be
deemed Net Exchange Property Proceeds hereunder.
6.     Restrictions on Release of Net Exchange Property Proceeds.
Exchangor shall have no right to receive, pledge, borrow or
otherwise obtain the benefits of the Net Exchange Property Proceeds
(including any interest earned thereon) except that Exchangor shall
be entitled to the Net Exchange Property Proceeds if, and only if:
A.     Exchangor has not identified any Replacement Property (as
defined below) prior to the end of the period beginning on the date
on which Exchangor transfers the first Exchange Property pursuant
to Paragraph 4 hereof, and ending at midnight on the forty-fifth
(45th) day thereafter (hereinafter the "Identification Period"), in
which event Exchangor shall be entitled to the Net Exchange
Property Proceeds only after the expiration of the Identification
Period; or
B.     Exchangor has identified one or more Replacement Properties
prior to the expiration of the Identification Period and has
received all of the Replacement Properties to which Exchangor is
entitled under this Agreement; or
C.     Exchangor has identified a Replacement Property prior to the
expiration of the Identification Period but Exchangor has not
acquired the Replacement Property prior to the earlier of (i) one
hundred eighty (180) days after the closing of the sale of the
first Exchange Property, or (ii) the due date (including
extensions) of Exchangor's federal income tax return for
Exchangor's taxable year in which the closing of the sale of the
Exchange Property occurs (hereinafter the "Exchange Period"), in
which event Exchangor shall be entitled to the Net Exchange
Property Proceeds after the expiration of the Exchange Period;
provided, however, that if (i) the Facilitator has executed one or
more contracts to purchase one or more Replacement Propert(ies)
which have not been acquired by the Facilitator within the
"Exchange Period" and (ii) the Facilitator reasonably determines
that it may be liable at law or in equity under such contracts, the
Facilitator is not required to pay to the Exchangor the funds
described in this paragraph until such time as the Facilitator
obtains a complete release of liability under such contracts from
the contract sellers thereto.
7.     Identification of Replacement Properties; Assignment of
Purchase Agreement.  On or before forty-five (45) days from the
date of the closing of the sale of the first Exchange Property,
Exchangor shall identify in writing to Facilitator one or more
like-kind properties to be exchanged by Facilitator for the
Exchange Property (hereinafter the "Replacement Properties").  Any
such identification shall be made using the form attached hereto as
Exhibit D.  Exchangor shall then assign to Facilitator, and
Facilitator shall accept from Exchangor, all of Exchangor's right,
title and interest in and to any contract for the acquisition of a
Replacement Property with the owner of such Replacement Property
(hereinafter the "Purchase Agreement"); provided that Facilitator
incurs no liability by virtue of such assignment other than the
obligation to receive and deliver the Net Exchange Property
Proceeds and documents in accordance with this Agreement and that
all representations, warranties and obligations of the Exchangor
under the Purchase Agreement remain the sole obligation of the
Exchangor, and further provided that the seller under the Purchase
Agreement acknowledges in writing this limitation on Facilitator's
liability thereunder.  Any such assignment shall be made using the
form attached hereto as Exhibit E.  Facilitator shall then give
written notice of such assignment to the owner of the applicable
Replacement Property.  Any such notice shall be given using the
form attached hereto as Exhibit F.
8.     Delivery of Additional Funds.  In the event the Net Exchange
Property Proceeds (plus interest earned thereon) are insufficient
to consummate the closing of the Replacement Properties, then
Exchangor shall pay to Facilitator any additional funds required
for the consummation of the closing of the Replacement Properties.
9.     Direct Transfer of Replacement Properties and Acquisition of
the Replacement Properties.  In order to reduce closing expenses,
Facilitator shall execute a letter directing the owner of each
Replacement Property to transfer such Replacement Property to
Exchangor by executing a Warranty Deed and other customary closing
documents in the name of Exchangor, pursuant to the terms of the
Purchase Agreement, and by delivering the executed Warranty Deed
and other customary closing documents to Facilitator, which shall
deliver them to Exchangor.  Such letter shall be in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit F.  Facilitator shall pay the owner of
the Replacement Property the net purchase price of the Replacement
Property using the Net Exchange Property Proceeds and any
additional funds delivered to Facilitator under Paragraph 8 (which
net purchase price shall reflect the credits due to Exchangor and
selling expenses due to the owner of the Replacement Property).
Subject to the condition that Exchangor shall have timely
identified the Replacement Properties, executed a contract for the
timely acquisition of the Replacement Properties, and delivered any
additional funds required under Paragraph 8 hereof, Facilitator
shall use its best efforts to consummate the closing of the
Replacement Properties prior to the expiration of the Exchange
