PART I
Item 1. Business
Assisted Housing Fund L.P. I (the Partnership) is a limited partnership formed
on November 2, 1987 and organized under the laws of the State of Washington.
The Partnership raised $3,511,000 from the sale of 703 units of limited
partnership through a public offering completed on April 14, 1989. The
Partnership has invested as a limited partner in eleven other limited
partnerships (Property Partnerships) which develop, own, and operate residential
apartment complexes located in small towns across the country. Each apartment
complex benefits from several forms of federal assistance programs and qualifies
for low-income housing credits (Tax Credits) pursuant to the Internal Revenue
Code by the Tax Reform Act of 1986. There are 334 partners in the Partnership.
The Partnership's general partner is Murphey Favre Properties, Inc., (MFP), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of WM Financial, Inc. which is a wholly-owned subsidiary
of Washington Mutual Bank (WMB), a wholly- owned subsidiary of Washington
Mutual, Inc.
Table A on page 4 lists the Property Partnerships in which the Partnership has
invested. Item 7 of this Report contains other significant information with
respect to such Property Partnerships.
Each Property Partnership has, as its general partner (developer), one or more
individuals or an entity not affiliated with the Partnership or MFP. In
accordance with the Partnership Agreements under which such entities are
organized, the Partnership depends on the developers for the management of each
Property Partnership. As of December 31, 2000, the Property Partnerships and
their developers were:

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
During the year, management's emphasis was on the continued operation of eleven
properties. At December 31, 2000, five properties were 100% occupied, four were
between 91% and 98% occupied and two were between 73% and 75% occupied.
Several properties continue to have cash flow problems. Fayette, located in West
Virginia, continues to have high vacancy related to local rental market
conditions. Real estate taxes were delinquent at December 31, 2000.
Cove, located in Michigan, also had delinquent real estate taxes at December 31,
2000, although operations improved during 2000. Management expects operations to
improve sufficiently in 2001 to allow taxes to be paid timely.
During 2000, RHS advanced funds to Washington Street, located in Michigan, to
pay delinquent real estate taxes of $42,917. The advance will be added to the
mortgage note and reamortized in 2001. RHS has provided additional rental
assistance to the project, which should improve occupancy and support the
increased rents necessary to make the increased mortgage payments.
Fairview, located in Wisconsin, has experienced increased vacancies due to less
demand for low-income housing in its market area. Management continues to
aggressively market the project.
The developer general partner of Logan, located in Ohio, did not comply with RHS
regulations regarding the handling of project cash during 2000. These instances
of non-compliance were reported to the appropriate authorities subsequent to
December 31, 2000. In addition, subsequent to December 31, 2000, the DGP made
two unauthorized withdrawals of project cash totaling $20,511. MFP and the other
general partners of Logan are considering proceedings to remove and replace the
administrative general partner.
The properties are located in rural towns with populations of 14,000 or less.
Five properties are located in Michigan, three in Washington, and one each in
Ohio, West Virginia and Wisconsin. The properties range in size from 24 to 68
units for a total portfolio of 394 units.
Results of Operations
On a consolidated basis, net income (loss) before depreciation for 2000, 1999,
and 1998 was $147,092, $122,277, and $134,348, respectively. Rental revenues for
2000 were up 2.9% compared to increases of 2.3% from 1998 to 1999, and 3.9% from
1997 to 1998. Rental operation expenses for 2000, including depreciation, were
down 0.1% over 1999, while rental operation expenses, including depreciation,
for 1999 and 1998 were up 2.9% and 0.5% over 1998 and 1997, respectively.
The Partnership paid $23,500, $23,000 and $22,690, in accounting expenses for
the Partnership for 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively.
Interest revenue for 2000 increased 4.2% from 1999 and decreased 3.1% from 1998
to 1999.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Partnership completed its public offering of units of limited partnership on
April 14, 1989, with proceeds totaling $3,511,000 from 339 limited partners. As
of December 31, 1999, the Partnership had invested $2,542,000 of offering
proceeds in eleven Property Partnerships.
Offering proceeds equal to $175,750 were reserved by the Partnership to fund its
operating expenses. As of December 31, 2000, the cash reserves of the
Partnership totaled $13,148. It is expected that the Partnership will draw on
the reserves in future years to fund accounting and other operating expenses of
the Partnership. Nominal cash distributions from the Property Partnerships will
supplement the cash reserves. In 2000, the Partnership received $13,255 in
distributions from the Property Partnerships. The expectation is that all cash
distributions received from the Property Partnerships will be used to defray the
operating expenses of the Partnership and thus it is not likely any distribution
will be made to the limited partners.
The Partnership is not required to fund additional amounts to the Property
Partnerships based on each Property Partnership agreement. Additionally, each
Property Partnership is operated as an individual project, and without any
contractual arrangements of any kind between the Property Partnerships. In 2000,
nine properties generated positive cash flow and two properties generated
deficit cash flow. The deficits were funded from rental operating cash and from
authorized withdrawals from the reserve accounts.
As of December 31, 2000, one developer general partner had advanced $14,209 to a
Property Partnership under the deficit funding agreement in place during the
guarantee period. The guarantee periods ended in 1991 and 1992. The developer
general partners are no longer obligated to fund operating deficits.
The Property Partnerships financed construction with a combination of bank
financing and funds from the Partnership. The permanent loans for the properties
were provided by the Farmers Home Administration, now known as Rural Housing
Service (RHS), under Section 515 of the National Housing Act of 1949, as
amended. RHS provides an interest credit to the Property Partnerships which
reduces the interest rates stated in the mortgage notes to an effective 1
percent rate over the lives of the mortgages. All property loans are current.
Capital expenditures on the properties are expected to increase over the initial
years' capital expenses due to the natural aging process of the newly
constructed (10 properties) or newly rehabilitated (1 property) projects at the
time of the formation of the Partnership. As part of RHS loan requirements, a
reserve account is funded at an annual rate of 1% of the original property loan
balance until the balance equals 10% of the original loan balance. Additions to
reserve accounts are funded from property operations and are established for
future capital expenditures.
Included in cash deposits on the consolidated balance sheets were $13,148 and
$25,101 held as deposits by the Partnership in WMB accounts as of December 31,
2000 and 1999, respectively. As discussed in Part I, Item 1, WMB is affiliated
with MFP.
There are no additional acquisitions nor any dispositions planned.
Regulatory Restrictions
Because the properties are operated under RHS loans and benefit from the federal
low-income housing tax credit program, the properties are restricted as to their
use and must comply with the requirements of the respective federal programs.
The tenants of all the properties must be tax credit and RHS eligible tenants.
It is management's goal to have all units, except for managers' units, occupied
by tax credit eligible tenants. In order to meet established income
requirements, tenants must not earn more than 60% of the median income for the
areas in which the properties are located. Seven of the eleven properties are
further restricted to renting apartment units only to senior citizens.
Additionally, the properties cannot be sold without prior approval of the RHS,
cannot make more than an 8% cash distribution annually to its owner (as
described in Note 6 to the Partnership's financial statements), and must remain
under the low-income housing tax credit program for 15 years to avoid any
recapture of the low-income housing tax credits. Furthermore, pursuant to RHS
loan agreements, RHS may refuse prepayment of the loans and require the
properties be used for the purpose of providing housing to eligible tenants for
a minimum period of 20 years.
Inflation
Operating expenses and rental revenues of each property are subject to
inflationary factors. Low rates of inflation could result in rental revenues
remaining constant or increasing at slower rates than in periods of high
inflation. High rates of inflation raise the operating expenses of the
properties, and to the extent the increased operating expenses are not passed on
to the tenants by rental increases, the properties' operation could be adversely
affected.
Tax Credit
As of December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, tax credits equal to 5.86%, 13.26% and
15.17%, respectively, of the limited partners' capital contributions have been
generated.

cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Assisted Housing
Fund L.P. I and its subsidiaries, as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the
results of their operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31,
2000, 1999, and 1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Nature of Business
Assisted Housing Fund L.P. I (the Partnership) is a limited partnership which
was organized November 2, 1987 under the laws of the state of Washington to
acquire limited partnership interests in other partnerships (the Property
Partnerships), each of which has been organized to develop or purchase a low- or
moderate-income apartment project. The Partnership's general partner is Murphey
Favre Properties, Inc. (MFP), a wholly-owned subsidiary of WM Financial, Inc.,
which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Washington Mutual Bank (WMB), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Washington Mutual, Inc. As of December 31, 2000, 334
limited partners held the 703 units of limited partnership interests
outstanding.
The Partnership has invested as a limited partner in eleven Property
Partnerships. The developer of each apartment project serves as the general
partner (DGP) of the respective Property Partnership.
The properties owned by the Property Partnerships are located in Michigan,
Wisconsin, Ohio, West Virginia and Washington. The apartment projects were
financed and constructed under Section 515 of the National Housing Act, as
amended (administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Rural Housing
Service (RHS)). Under this program, the Property Partnerships provide housing to
low- and moderate-income tenants. Lower rental charges to tenants are recovered
by the Property Partnerships through an interest reduction program which reduces
the effective interest rate over the lives of the mortgages to 1 percent and a
rental assistance program whereby RHS pays the Property Partnerships for a
portion of qualified tenant rents. Construction of the apartment projects began
between June, 1988 and May, 1990 and rental operations began between April, 1989
and February, 1991.
Additionally, in exchange for an allocation of federal low-income housing tax
credits under Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code, each Property Partnership
has entered into an agreement with an agency of the state in which the apartment
project is located, whereby the Property Partnership has agreed to maintain all
apartment units as both rent restricted and occupied by low-income tenants for a
minimum period of 15 years.
During the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, rental revenue from
RHS totaled $482,617, $462,125, and $451,730, representing 28.8 percent, 28.5
percent, and 28.6 percent of total revenue, respectively.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES - (CONTINUED)
Principles of Consolidation
The financial statements include the financial statements of the Partnership and
the following eleven Property Partnerships in which it has invested as a limited
partner:
Fairview Apartments Company Limited Partnership (Fairview)
Ionia Limited Dividend Housing Association Limited Partnership (Ionia)
Logan Apartments Company Limited Partnership (Logan)
Rolling Brook II Limited Dividend Housing Association Limited Partnership
(Rolling Brook)
Wexford Manor Limited Dividend Housing Association Limited Partnership
(Wexford)
Blue Heron Apartment Associates Limited Partnership (Blue Heron)
Glenwood Apartment Associates Limited Partnership (Glenwood)
Pacific Place Apartment Associates Limited Partnership (Pacific Place)
Cove Limited Dividend Housing Association Limited Partnership (Cove)
Washington Street Limited Dividend Housing Association Limited
Partnership (Washington)
Fayette Hills Limited Partnership (Fayette)
The financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis because the
Partnership holds approximately 99 percent of the profit and loss interests and
approximately 55 percent of the equity interests in each Property Partnership.
Through an affiliate, who is a special limited partner in each of the 11
Property Partnerships, the Partnership controls certain fundamental decisions
affecting the operation of the Property Partnerships. These fundamental
decisions include significant purchases of assets, material borrowings or
creation of liens on the underlying properties, entering into material
contracts, making tax elections and any act that would cause termination of the
Property Partnership. All material interpartnership transactions and balances
have been eliminated. For the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, net
losses allocable to the minority partners were $25,642, $26,206, and $26,022,
respectively.
Method of Accounting
The accrual method of accounting is used for financial statement purposes.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES - (CONTINUED)
Cost Overruns
The partnership agreements for the Property Partnerships required the DGP's to
fund cost overruns on the development of the apartment projects. Such cost
overruns, totaling $589,462, have been recorded as minority interests in
property partnerships and have been included in the cost basis of the rental
property. All depreciation related thereto has been specially allocated to the
respective DGP's.
Depreciation
Depreciation is computed for financial statement purposes using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as
follows:
Building shell and components.............. 27.5 years
Land improvements...... ..................... 15 years
Appliances............................... 5 - 10 years
Carpets and draperies.................... 5 - 10 years
Income Taxes
No income tax provision has been included in the financial statements since
income or loss of a Partnership is required to be reported by the respective
partners on their income tax returns.
Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, all investment instruments
purchased with a maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash
equivalents. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, there were no cash equivalents.
Concentration of Credit
The Property Partnerships maintain cash in bank deposit accounts which, at
times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Property Partnerships have not
experienced any losses in such accounts. Management believes the Property
Partnerships are not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash in such bank
deposit accounts.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumption that
affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.

In connection with the acquisition and development of rental property and the
management of both the rental property and the Partnership, the Partnership and
Property Partnerships have paid or accrued the following amounts to certain
affiliates:
Years Ended December 31,
2000 1999 1998
Murphey Favre Properties, Inc. -
partnership services fee $ 7,500 $ 7,500 $ 7,500

respectively, to the Partnership for administrative expenses.
The Partnership maintains deposits in certain of WMB's interest-bearing accounts
which aggregated $13,148 and $25,101 at December 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. Interest earned on such deposits totaled $504, $414, and $92
during the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
Page 9
ASSISTED HOUSING FUND L.P. I AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2 - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - (CONTINUED)
Terms of the RHS Loan Agreements require each DGP to provide interest-free
advances of stipulated amounts as initial operating capital to the Property
Partnerships. Due to affiliates includes $152,107 of such advances at December
31, 2000 and 1999. In addition, these balances include DGP advances of $35,468
for land improvements and $14,209 to fund operating deficits. Advances made to
one of the DGP's during 2000 totaled $15,079, while funds advanced by the same
DGP to the Property Partnership totaled $11,473 (see Note 9). The remainder of
the balances include property management fees and reimbursements payable to MFP
for partnership services and administration.
Advances from the DGPs may only be repaid from the proceeds of future sales of
the respective properties. Property management fees are paid out of rental
operations. Partnership fees are payable from future sales of the properties, to
the extent they are not paid from distributions of rental operation cash (Note
6).
Under the terms of management services agreements, seven of the eleven Property
Partnerships have affiliates of the DGP's which provide management services for
the rental properties and receive compensation for such services in amounts
approximating 8.4% of rental receipts. Three of the eleven Property Partnerships
are co-managed by affiliates of the DGP's which provide management services for
the rental properties and receive compensation for such services in amounts
approximating 2.8% of rental receipts.
NOTE 3 - CASH IN RESERVE ACCOUNTS
The Loan Agreements between the Property Partnerships and RHS require the
Property Partnerships to deposit $126,889 annually into separate reserve
accounts until the reserve accounts reach $1,268,211. Subject to RHS approval,
these funds may be used for various purposes, as further described in the Loan
Agreements. Ten of the eleven Property Partnerships are in compliance with the
minimum annual funding requirements as set forth by RHS for the year ended
December 31, 2000. All of the Property Partnerships were in compliance for the
year ended December 31, 1999. Reserve withdrawals at ten of the eleven Property
Partnerships were made in compliance with RHS requirements (see Note 9).
Page 10
ASSISTED HOUSING FUND L.P. I AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 4 - MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE
The mortgage notes are payable to RHS in monthly installments totaling $26,550.
In accordance with provisions of Interest Credit Agreements, RHS provides
monthly interest credits totaling $69,199 which reduce the interest rates stated
in the mortgage notes to effective rates of 1 percent over the lives of the
mortgages. Amortization of principal is based on the stated rates of 8.75% to
10.75% under RHS's Predetermined Amortization Schedule System (PASS). The
mortgage notes mature May, 2039 through January, 2040. Substantially all of the
rental property and equipment is pledged as collateral on the mortgages. No
partner is individually liable on the mortgage notes.
The mortgage notes are regulated by the U.S. Government and therefore, have no
market price. Accordingly, management has determined that users of the financial
statements would derive no benefit from any estimate of fair value and
performing such an analysis would not be practicable.
Principal payments on the mortgage notes for the next 5 years are as follows:
Year Amounts
2001 $ 35,128
2002 38,422
2003 42,029
2004 46,303
2005 50,294
2006 and later years 12,074,978
$12,287,154
NOTE 5 - ASSESSMENT PAYABLE
In September, 1995, the city of Bainbridge Island issued an assessment for Blue
Heron's share of street and utility improvements in the amount of $68,569. The
assessment was payable in 10 equal annual installments together with interest at
the rate of 5.6 percent. During 2000, funds were withdrawn from the reserve
account and the balance of the assessment was paid in full.
Page 11
ASSISTED HOUSING FUND L.P. I AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 6 - RENTAL OPERATION CASH
RHS regulations limit the distribution of rental operation cash to a maximum of
$38,090 annually. Any distribution to the Partnership from rental operation cash
is to be made in accordance with the respective partnership agreements. Whether
or not a Property Partnership makes any limited distribution is based on the
results of its own operations and is at the discretion of the DGP.
NOTE 7 - GUARANTEES
Each of the DGP's has made a guarantee to the respective Property Partnership
that they will compensate the Partnership in the event the actual low-income
housing tax credit is less than 85% to 90% of the available credit. Through
December 31, 2000, no payments have been made under these guarantee agreements.
NOTE 8 - CONTINGENCY
The Partnership has ceased accrual of the annual partnership administration fee,
payable in part to the general partner. Management has determined that the
source of payment, a future sale or refinance of one or more of the Property
Partnerships, may not be sufficient to pay fees accrued in excess of the
$544,540 payable at December 31, 1996. Management has elected to treat fees for
years subsequent to 1996 as a contingent liability. At December 31, 2000 and
1999 the contingent liability for partnership administration fees totaled
$298,068 and $223,551, respectively.
NOTE 9 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The DGP of Logan did not comply with RHS regulations regarding the handling of
project cash during 2000. These instances of non-compliance were reported to the
appropriate authorities subsequent to December 31, 2000. In addition, subsequent
to December 31, 2000, the DGP made multiple unauthorized withdrawals of project
cash totaling $20,511. Also, project bank accounts have been pledged in
violation of RHS regulations. MFP and the other general partners of Logan are
considering proceedings to remove and replace the DGP.
