                        ASSOCIATED PLANNERS REALTY FUND
                       (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)

                         SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BUSINESS
Associated Planners  Realty  Fund  (the  "Partnership"),  a  California  limited
partnership,  was  formed  on  November  19,  1985  under  the  Revised  Limited
Partnership Act  of the  State of  California.   The Partnership  was formed  to
acquire  income-producing  real  property  throughout  the  United  States  with
emphasis on  properties located  in California  and  southwestern states.    The
Partnership purchases such properties  on an all cash  basis and intends to  own
and operate such properties for investment over an anticipated holding period of
approximately five to ten years.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements do not give effect to any assets that the
partners may have outside of their interest in the partnership, nor to any
personal obligations, including income taxes, of the partners.

The  consolidated  financial  statements  include  the  accounts  of  Associated
Planners Realty Fund and all joint ventures in which it has a majority interest.

RENTAL REAL ESTATE AND DEPRECIATION
Assets are stated  at cost.   Depreciation is computed  using the  straight-line
method over estimated useful lives ranging from five to 35 years.

In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the cost of an asset may
be impaired,  an  evaluation  of  recoverability would  be  performed.    If  an
evaluation is required, the estimated future undiscounted cash flows  associated
with the asset would be compared to the carrying amount to determine if a write-
down to market value is required.

RENTAL INCOME
Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis to the extent that  rental
revenue is deemed collectible.



                        ASSOCIATED PLANNERS REALTY FUND
                       (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)

                         SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES


STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS
For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, the Partnership considers cash
in the bank and all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities
of three months or less, to be cash and cash equivalents.

USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of  financial statements in  conformity with generally  accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the  reported  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities  and  disclosure  of
contingent assets and liabilities  at the date of  the financial statements  and
the reported amounts  of revenues  and expenses  during the  reporting   period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

RECLASSIFICATIONS
For comparative purposes, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to
conform to the current year presentation.

Specifically:

     One tenant accounted for 38% in 1996;
     One tenant accounted for 38% in 1995;

NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

(a)   For Partnership  management  services rendered  to  the Partnership,  the

NOTE 4- CONSTRUCTION IN PROGRESS AND CONSTRUCTION LOAN PAYABLE

In January 1995, the Partnership closed escrow  on a parcel of land adjacent to
the Shaw Villa Shopping Center.   The purchase price  of the land was  $206,749,
including a  $13,102 acquisition  fee paid  to the  Advisor.   The purchase  was
financed using $23,602  in cash, and  the remainder by  a one year  construction
loan from Valliwide  Bank of Fresno.   The loan  bears interest at  2% over  the
bank's prime  rate (8.25%  at March  31,  1996).   The total  construction  loan
commitment is for $1,365,000 which matures on  June 5, 1996.  Borrowings on  the
construction loan totaled $1,225,950 as of December 31, 1995 and March 31, 1996.
The construction loan amortization is interest only with payments via additional
draws against this loan.  The  construction was completed during 1995 and  total
construction  costs  of   $1,372,900  was  allocated   to  land,  building   and
improvements.  Included in  construction costs is  $87,838 in construction  loan
interest that was capitalized.

The carrying amount is a reasonable  estimate of fair value of the  construction
loan  payable  because  the  interest  rates  approximate  the  borrowing  rates
currently  available  for  mortgage  loans   with  similar  terms  and   average
maturities.

NOTE 5- COMMITMENTS

The  Partnership has an agreement to reimburse a tenant $165,440 in  improvement
costs incurred in connection  with construction move-in costs.   This amount  is
expected to be paid by June 30, 1996.

Distributions were paid in the fiscal quarter following the record date.

NOTE 7 - REALLOCATION OF PARTNER BALANCES

Per the provisions  of Section 11.1  (V)(ii) of the  Partnership Agreement,  the
General Partner determined that action was  necessary to "cure the  ambiguities"
caused by the  Agreement itself.   The ambiguity involved  the treatment of  the
partnership management fee, being paid to the General Partner, as an expense  of
the Partnership, when in fact, it should have been treated as a general  partner
withdrawal of capital.   In  order to properly  reflect this  inception to  date
correction, a transfer of $305,548 was  made from the General Partner's  capital
account to the Limited Partners capital  account during the quarter ended  March
31, 1996.

NOTE 8 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Partnership distributed $61,117 ($8.15 per unit) on  May 6, 1996 to  Limited
Partners of record as of March 31, 1996.

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

INTRODUCTION

Associated Planners Realty  Fund (the "Partnership")  was organized in  November
1985, under the  California Revised Limited  Partnership Act.   The  Partnership
began offering units for sale on March 28, 1986.   As of December 27, 1987,  the
Partnership  had  raised  $7,499,000  in  gross  capital  contributions.     The
Partnership  netted  approximately  $6,720,000   after  sales  commissions   and
syndication costs.

The Partnership was  organized for  the purpose  of investing  in, holding,  and
managing improved,  leveraged  income-producing property,  such as  residential
property, office  buildings, commercial  buildings, industrial  properties,  and
shopping centers.  The  Partnership intends to own  and operate such  properties
for investment over an anticipated holding  period of approximately five to  ten
years.

The Partnership's principal investment objectives are  to invest in rental  real
estate properties which will:

     (1)  Preserve and protect the Partnership's invested capital;

     (2)  Provide for cash distributions from operations;

     (3)  Provide gains through potential appreciation; and

     (4)  Generate Federal income tax deductions so that during the early years
          of property operations, a portion of cash distributions may be treated
          as a return of capital for tax purposes and, therefore, may not
          represent taxable income to the limited partners.

The ownership and operation  of any income-producing real estate is  subject to
those risks  inherent in  all real  estate investments,  including national  and
local  economic  conditions,  the  supply  and  demand  for  similar  types   of
properties, competitive marketing conditions, zoning changes, possible  casualty
losses, increases in real estate taxes, assessments, and operating expenses,  as
well as others.

                       (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)

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

The Partnership is operated by the General  Partner subject to the terms of  the
Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited  Partnership.  The Partnership has  no
employees, and all  administrative services are  provided by  West Coast  Realty
Advisors, Inc., the General Partner.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Operations for the  quarter ended March  31, 1996, reflect  an entire period  of
operations for  the Partnership's  properties.   Rental  revenue for  the  three
months ended March 31, 1996 decreased from that for the three months ended March
31, 1995  by  approximately $15,000,  due  to the  sale  of the  Shurgard  Mini-
Warehouse facility on May 15, 1995.   This loss of revenue was partially  offset
by improved occupancy at the multi-tenant Santa Fe Business Park Building.

The Partnership generated $79,092 in income from operations before  depreciation
of $31,842 for  the three months  ended March 31,  1996 compared  to $84,695  in
income from operations before depreciation of $36,231 for the three months ended
March 31,  1995.    Total operating  and  general  and  administrative  expenses
decreased by $36,070 (45.8%) for the three months ended March 31, 1996  compared
to the three months ended March 31, 1995,  primarily due to increased repair and
maintenance expenditures and an adjustment to the 1995 minority interest account
balance.

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

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During the three months ended March 31, 1996, $76,661 in cash was provided by
operating activities.  This resulted from net cash basis income of $79,092 from
operations (net income plus depreciation expense) plus a $19,217 decrease in
other assets (primarily due to the reduction of miscellaneous receivable
($15,840) and prepaid expenses ($2,617) ) and a $594 increase in security
deposits and prepaid rents, offset by a $4,649 decrease in accounts payable
(primarily attributable to normal decrease in trade payable) and a $17,593
adjustment to the minority interest account for the Encinitas properties. Cash
used in financing activities totaled $59,492 of which $53,543 was distributions
paid to the limited partners and $5,949 paid to the general partners.

In January 1995, the Partnership closed escrow  on a parcel of land adjacent  to
the Shaw Villa Shopping Center.   The purchase price  of the land was  $206,749,
including a  $13,102 acquisition  fee paid  to the  Advisor.   The purchase  was
financed using $23,602  in cash, and  the remainder by  a one year  construction
loan from Valliwide  Bank of Fresno.   The loan  bears interest at  2% over  the
bank's prime  rate (8.25%  at March  31,  1996).   The total  construction  loan
commitment is for $1,365,000 which matures on  June 5, 1996.  Borrowings on  the
construction loan totaled  $1,225,950.   The construction  loan amortization  is
interest only with payments of $19,409  paid during the quarter ended March  31,
1996.  The construction was completed  during 1995 and total construction  costs
of $1,372,900 was  allocated to land,  building and improvements.   Included  in
construction  costs  is   $87,838  in  construction   loan  interest  that   was
capitalized.

The carrying amount is a reasonable  estimate of fair value of the  construction
loan  payable  because  the  interest  rates  approximate  the  borrowing  rates
currently  available  for  mortgage  loans   with  similar  terms  and   average
maturities.

Net income per limited partner unit  decreased from $5.38 for the quarter  ended
March 31, 1995 to $5.29 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Statements of  Financial  Accounting  Standards No.  121,  "Accounting  for  the
Impaired of Long Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed of" (SFAS
No. 121) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) is  effective
for financial statements  for fiscal years  beginning after  December 15,  1995.
The new standard establishes new guidelines regarding when impairment losses  on
long-lived assets, which include plant  and equipment, and certain  identifiable
intangible assets,  should be  recognized and  how impairment  losses should  be
measured. This adoption had no effect on the statement of income for the quarter
ended March 31, 1996,  as there were no  impairment amounts recorded during  the
period.
