and when all or any portion of such Lease Obligations have been collected by
either party from such tenants, subject to the provisions in the immediately

cooperate with transferor in such examination by making the required books
and records available promptly in one location, either at the Property or as
otherwise mutually determined.  The cost of such examination shall be the
sole responsibility of transferor.

         If any of the Lease Obligations relate to amounts paid by
transferor prior to Closing which are properly recoverable over a period of
time extending beyond the lease period in which the Closing occurs,
transferor shall receive a credit at closing equal to the pro rata amount of
such payments made by transferor allocable to Transferee Pro-Rata Period and
when any such Lease Obligations are paid by the tenant to transferee, such
amounts when receive by transferee shall be equitable apportioned between
the parties, and the transferee shall pay to transferor Transferor's pro-
rata entitlement allocable to the Transferor Pro-Rata Period and transferee
shall retain transferee's pro-rata entitlement allocable to the Transferee
Pro-Rata Period.

         THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO REAL ESTATE EXCHANGE CONTRACT ("First
Amendment") is made and entered into on this 4 day of April, 1997 between:

BERKSHIRE:       BROOKWOOD VILLAGE JOINT VENTURE, a Massachusetts joint
                 venture, having as its Joint venture partners, KRUPP CASH
                 PLUS-  II, a Massachusetts limited partnership and BRI
                 TEXAS APARTMENTS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a Delaware limited
                 partnership; and

CRLP:COLONIAL REALTY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a Delaware limited partnership .

                                  RECITALS:

A.       Berkshire and CRLP entered into that certain Real Estate Exchange
         Contract (the "Real Estate Exchange Contract") dated March 6, 1997,
         for the exchange of real property between Berkshire and CRLP.

B.       Berkshire and CRLP desire to amend the Real Estate         Exchange
Contract according to the terms of this First      Amendment.

         NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration,       the
parties agree as follows:

1 .      AMENDMENTS.

(a)      Paragraph 1 is hereby amended to provide that the CRLP Property is
hereby amended by deleting the legal descriptions for North Ingle Villas and
Polos at Ponte Vedra from the definition of CRLP Property.

(b)      Paragraph 2(b) is deleted in its entirety and the following is
substituted therefore:
(b) For Berkshire Property: CRLP shall exchange the CRLP Property and
Twenty-Four Million One Hundred Ninety-One Thousand Four Hundred Fifty-Seven

consideration for the Berkshire Property.  Berkshire acknowledges that the
Polos West portion of the CRLP Property shall be subject to a loan from The
Lincoln National Life Insurance Company which, as of May 1, 1997, will have
a principal balance of Five Million Seven Hundred Nineteen Thousand Two
Hundred Thirty-Seven and No/100 Dollars ($5,719,237.00). The Lincoln

(c)    Paragraph 2(d) is deleted in its entirety and the following is
substituted therefor:

(d) CRLP shall pay off, on or prior to closing, any outstanding mortgage
indebtedness on the CRLP Property, other than Polos West, which has, and
will have at closing, an outstanding mortgage with The Lincoln National Life
Insurance Company which is being assumed by Berkshire."

(d)   Paragraph 3 is hereby amended to provide that the Additional Deposit
shall be placed with the Escrow Agent within two (2) days following the
complete execution of this First Amendment.  Both parties acknowledge that
they have completed all inspections of the respective Property other than
those items specifically set forth in Paragraph 4(a) below.  Both parties
may terminate this Contract and receive a refund of all Earnest Money and
interest thereon in the event either is not satisfied with or approves the
Inspection Items (as defined below).

(e)     Paragraph 4(a) is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following
is substituted therefor:

"(a) Each party shall have until April 25, 1997 (the "Due Diligence Period")
within which to satisfy itself as to the following matters concerning its
acquisition regarding the purchase of the respective Property being
purchased hereunder:

(i)      title and survey review of the Property;

(ii)     approval of the environmental aspects of purchasing the Property;
         and

(iii)    approval of zoning and compliance with laws; and
         
(iv)     review and approval of the leases on the Property. (All of the

From the date this Agreement is executed until the Closing, each party
hereby grants to the other and its agents full access to the Property and
all of the records related thereto in order to conduct such inspections and
tests as such party deems necessary in order to reach its decision by the
end of the Due Diligence Period. The inspecting party agrees to indemnify
and hold the property owner harmless from all costs, damages, losses and
expenses which are caused by the inspecting party or its agents, employees
or contractors."

(f) Paragraph 4 is hereby amended by adding the following as Subparagraph
(d):

"(d) CRLP shall use its best efforts to obtain an estoppel letter dated
within thirty (30) days of the Closing (the "Lender Estoppel Letter")from
Lincoln National consenting to the conveyance of the Polos West portion of
the CRLP Property to Berkshire, as contemplated herein, subject to the
Lincoln National Note and other Loan Documents, subject to any exculpation
from liability provisions therein, and setting forth with respect thereto:
(i) the Note and other Loan Documents are in full force and effect; (ii) to
the lender's knowledge, no default exists, nor is lender aware of any state
of facts which the passage of time or the giving of notice would give rise
to a default, under any of the Loan Documents; (iii) the amount of the
outstanding unpaid principal balance of the Note, the interest rate and
amount of the monthly payments due thereunder, the maturity date thereof and
the date to which interest and principal have been paid on the Note; and
(iv) the amount of any real estate tax escrow, insurance escrow and other
escrows or reserves held by lender.

CRLP shall (a) make all payments of interest and principal and, if
applicable, tax escrow, insurance escrow and other amounts required under
the Lincoln National Note and other Loan Documents coming due thereunder
prior to the Closing, in accordance with the terms thereof, (b) otherwise
comply with all of the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents up to the
Closing, and (c) not alter or amend the Loan Documents, or seek or accept
any waivers or extensions of time for payment or performance thereunder."

(g)      Paragraph 6(a) is hereby amended by deleting "May 18, 1997" and
inserting in lieu thereof: "May 12, 1997."

(h)      Paragraph 6(c)(ii) is hereby amended by adding the following as an
additional subparagraph (f):

"(f)   The assumption fee for the transfer of the Lincoln National loan
West."

(i)      Paragraph 11 is hereby amended by adding the following:

"LOAN DOCUMENTS.  Prior to the date of this First Amendment, CRLP has
delivered to Berkshire true, correct and complete copies of all notes,
instruments, agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust and other documents in
connection with the Lincoln National Loan, together with any and all
modifications and amendments thereto (collectively, the "Loan Documents"). 
Any other documents in CRLP's files related to the Lincoln National Loan are
available for Berkshire's review,

Berkshire and CRLP shall use best efforts to obtain the consent of Lincoln
National to the conveyance of Polos West to Berkshire subject to the Note
and the other Loan Documents and to obtain the Lender Estoppel Letter. 
CRLP, with Berkshire's cooperation, shall immediately commence to obtain the
consent of Lincoln National necessary to permit the conveyance of Polos West
to Berkshire subject to the Note and other Loan Documents.  Berkshire shall
supply any and all documentation and additional information required by
Lincoln National in order to promptly complete the request for the consent
of Lincoln National to the transactions contemplated hereunder.  CRLP shall
request that Lincoln National state in writing any terms and requirements,
including the amount of any loan assumption fees, to be imposed by Lincoln
National in connection with its consent to the transactions contemplated
hereby.  CRLP agrees that CRLP shall be obligated to pay the Loan Assumption
Fees, if any, required by Lincoln National.  It shall be a condition of
Closing that prior to the Closing, Lincoln National shall have granted its
consent to the transactions contemplated hereunder on terms and requirements
satisfactory to Berkshire and shall have issued the Lender Estoppel Letter. 
In the event that any of the terms or requirements required by Lincoln
National for its consent are not approved by Berkshire, in its sole
discretion, Berkshire may terminate this Agreement by written notice given
to CRLP within seven (7) days after Berkshire has received in writing the
terms and requirements of Lincoln National for its consent.  In the event
either (a) the consent of Lincoln National is not obtained prior to the
Closing or (b) Berkshire does not approve the terms and conditions of
Lincoln National and gives timely notice of termination hereunder to CRLP,
this Agreement shall terminate without further action by any party, at which
time, the Deposit shall be promptly returned to Berkshire, and, thereafter
this Agreement shall be void and without recourse to all parties, except for
provisions which are expressly stated to survive termination of this
Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, if Berkshire
elects to terminate this Agreement as provided hereunder, CRLP, at its
election, may elect to pay in full, on or before Closing, with any in
penalties, the Lincoln National Loan and convey the Polos West property to
Berkshire free and clear of the Lincoln National Loan Documents, in which
event (i) the termination of this Agreement by Berkshire under this Section
12 shall be void and (ii) the Cash Equivalent payable by CRLP shall be
reduced by an amount equal to the outstanding principal balance of the
Lincoln National Note (but excluding any accrued interest or prepayment
penalties)."

(j)      Exhibit F-1 is hereby amended by adding the following:
         "20.  True and complete copies of the Loan Documents, including
         each modification and amendment thereof, have been furnished
         heretofore to Berkshire.  As of the date of this Agreement, there
         are no notes, instruments, agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust or
         other documents evidencing any agreement or obligation of CRLP to
         Lincoln National or any other lender for which Berkshire shall be
         responsible with respect to the Polos West portion of the CRLP
         Property other than the Loan Documents delivered to Berkshire by
         CRLP.  The Loan Documents are in full force and effect and none of
         the Loan Documents have been modified, amended or extended except
         as shown thereon.  All payments of principal, interest, and, if
         applicable, real estate tax escrow, insurance escrow and any other
         payments required under the Loan Documents which are due and
         payable, through the Closing, have been, and will be, paid in full. 
         No default exists and CRLP has not received any written notice of
         default under any of the Loan Documents.  To CRLP's knowledge,
         Lincoln National is the sole holder of the Note.  The outstanding
         principal balance of the Loan as May 1, 1997 shall be Five Million
         Seven Hundred Nineteen Thousand Two Hundred Thirty-Seven and No/100
         Dollars ($5,719,237.00). The only security taken or held in
         connection with the Note are the Loan Documents.  The Loan
         Documents secure no other indebtedness but the Lincoln National
         Loan."

2.        FULL FORCE AND EFFECT.  Except as amended hereby, the Real Estate
Exchange Contract shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with
its terms.
