   This Form  10-K contains forward-looking  statements within the  meaning of
   Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
   Exchange  Act of 1934.   Actual results could  differ materially from those
   projected  in the  forward-looking statements as  a result  of a  number of
   factors, including those identified herein.

   ITEM 1.    BUSINESS

      Krupp Insured  Mortgage Limited  Partnership  (the "Partnership")  is  a
   Massachusetts limited partnership which was formed on  March 21, 1988.  The
   Partnership raised approximately $299 million through a public  offering of
   limited  partner  interests  evidenced  by  units  of  depositary  receipts
   ("Units"),  and  used the  proceeds available  for investment  primarily to
   acquire  participating  insured   mortgages  ("PIMs")  and  mortgage-backed
   securities ("MBS").  The Partnership considers itself to be engaged only in
   the industry segment of investment in mortgages.

      The  Partnership's  investments  in  PIMs  on  multi-family  residential
   properties consist of a MBS or  an insured mortgage loan (collectively, the
   "insured  mortgage")  guaranteed  or  insured  as  to  principal and  basic
   interest.  These  insured mortgages were issued  or originated under or  in
   connection with the  housing programs of  the Government National  Mortgage
   Association ("GNMA"), Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA") or the
   Department  of Housing  and Urban  Development ("HUD").   PIMs  provide the
   Partnership with monthly  payments of principal and basic interest and also
   may provide for the Partnership participation in the current revenue stream
   and in residual  value, if any, from  the sale or other  realization of the
   underlying property.  The borrower conveys these  rights to the Partnership
   through a  subordinated promissory note  and mortgage.   The  participation
   features are neither insured nor guaranteed.

      The  Partnership  also  acquired  MBS  collateralized  by  single-family
   mortgage loans  issued  or originated  by  FNMA or  the Federal  Home  Loan
   Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC").  FNMA and FHLMC guarantee the principal and
   basic interest of the Partnership's FNMA and FHLMC MBS, respectively.

      Prior to  May 23,  1995 the  Partnership  could reinvest  or commit  for
   reinvestment principal  proceeds or other  realization of the  mortgages in
   new mortgages.   In the future, proceeds received from prepayments or other
   realizations  of mortgage assets will be  distributed by the Partnership to
   investors through quarterly or possibly special distributions.

      Although the Partnership will terminate no later than December 31, 2028,
   the value of the PIMs may  be realized by the Partnership through repayment
   or  sale as  early as  ten  years from  the  dates of  the  closing of  the
   permanent loans and the Partnership may realize the value of  all its other
   investments  within that  time frame.   Therefore,  it is  anticipated that
   dissolution of the Partnership could occur significantly  prior to December
   31, 2028.

      The Partnership's investments are not expected to be subject to seasonal
   fluctuations.   However,  the future  performance of  the  Partnership will
   depend upon  certain factors which cannot  be predicted.  In  addition, any
   ultimate  realization of  the participation  features of  the PIMs  will be
   subject to similar  risks associated with  equity real estate  investments,
   including:  reliance  on the owner's operating skills,  ability to maintain
   occupancy  levels, control  operating expenses,  maintain the  property and
   provide adequate insurance  coverage; adverse changes  in general  economic
   conditions, adverse  local conditions, and changes  in governmental 
   regulations, real estate zoning laws,  or tax laws; and other circumstances
   over which the Partnership may have little or no control.

      The  requirements  for   compliance  with  federal,   state  and   local
   regulations  to date  have not had  an adverse effect  on the Partnership's
   operations, and  the  Partnership  anticipates no  adverse  effect  in  the
   future.

   As of December  31, 1996, there were no personnel  directly employed by the
   Partnership.

   ITEM 5.    MARKET   FOR  THE   REGISTRANT'S  COMMON   EQUITY  AND   RELATED
              STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

      There currently is no established trading market for the Units.

      The  number of  investors  holding Units  as of  December  31, 1996  was
   approximately  15,200.   One  of the  objectives of  the Partnership  is to
   provide quarterly distributions  of cash flow generated  by its investments
   in  mortgages.   The  Partnership anticipates  that future  operations will
   continue to generate cash available for distribution.

      During  1996, the  Partnership  made a  special distribution  consisting
   primarily of principal proceeds from the Water View and Tarnhill Apartments
   PIM prepayments.  The  Partnership may  make special  distributions in  the
   future if PIMs prepay or a sufficient  amount of cash is available from MBS
   and PIM principal collections.

      The Partnership made distributions to its Partners  during the two years
   ended December 31, 1996 as follows:

   those
   concerning  Management s   expectations  regarding  the   future  financial
   performance  and  future events.  These forward-looking  statements involve
   significant  risk and  uncertainties,  including  those  described  herein.
   Actual  results may  differ  materially  from  those  anticipated  by  such
   forward-looking statements.

   Liquidity and Capital Resources

   The most  significant demands  on the  Partnership's liquidity  are regular
   quarterly distributions  paid to investors  of approximately  $4.5 million.
   Funds used  for investor distributions  are generated from  interest income
   received  on  the PIMs,  MBS,  cash  and  short-term investments,  and  the
   principal collections received on the PIMs  and MBS.  The Partnership funds
   a portion of the distribution from  principal collections and, as a result,
   the capital resources  of the Partnership will continually decrease.   As a
   result of  this decrease, the  total cash  inflows to the  Partnership will
   also  decrease,   which  will  result   in  periodic  adjustments   to  the
   distributions paid to investors.

   The General Partners periodically review the distribution rate to determine
   whether  an adjustment  to  the distribution  rate  is  necessary based  on
   projected future cash flows.  In general, the General Partners try to set a
   distribution rate that provides  for level quarterly distributions of  cash
   available for distribution.   To the extent quarterly distributions  do not
   fully  utilize  the cash  available  for  distribution  and  cash  balances
   increase,  the  General  Partners  may  adjust  the  distribution  rate  or
   distribute such funds through a special distribution.

   During February  1996, the  Partnership received  prepayments of  the Water
   View  and  Tarnhill   Apartments  PIMs.    The  Partnership   received  the
   outstanding principal balances of these PIMs of approximately $16.7 million
   and $7.5  million, respectively, and participation income from the Tarnhill
   Apartments  PIM of approximately  $1.2 million.   The  participation income
   from Tarnhill  consisted of approximately  $983,000 of  Shared Appreciation
   Interest and approximately $224,000 of Shared Income and Minimum Additional
   Interest.   The  Partnership  did not  receive  any  prepayment penalty  or
   participation income related to the prepayment of the Water View Apartments
   PIM.   During  1995, the  operating  performance of  Water View  Apartments
   declined due to insufficient levels of occupancy and higher maintenance and
   repair  expenses due to  vandalism.   As a result,  the borrower  went into
   default  on  the  underlying  loan.   Normally,  a  loan  like  this  would
   eventually be recovered  through an insurance claim process.   However, on
   February 16, 1996, the
   Partnership was able  to receive its insured proceeds on  this loan earlier
   than anticipated due  to Bear Stearn s  purchase of the underlying  insured
   mortgage.  As  a result of the prepayment, the  Partnership fully amortized
   the remaining prepaid fees and expenses associated with this PIM.

   The Partnership made a special distribution  on March 15, 1996 to investors
   in the amount  of $1.70 per  unit with the  proceeds from the  prepayments.
   The  Partnership   will  continue  to  pay  distributions  at  the  current
   distribution rate of $.30 per unit  per quarter.  The General Partners will
   continue to  monitor the appropriateness  of this distribution rate  in the
   future and will adjust it as necessary.

   During 1996,  the owners of four  properties in the portfolio  informed the
   Partnership of their intention to  sell their properties, transactions that
   may take place during 1997.  The sale of Paddock Club and Southland Station
   II  would  result in  a  principal repayment  totaling  approximately $15.2
   million, the sale of Silver Springs  Apartments would result in a principal
   repayment of  approximately $7.2  million, and  the sale  of The  Patrician
   would result in a  principal repayment of approximately $ 8.0  million.  In
   addition to  the repayment of  the outstanding  principal on the  PIMs, the
   Partnership would receive the greater of  a 9% prepayment penalty or Shared
   Appreciation Interest as well as any unpaid Minimum Additional Interest and
   or Shared Income Interest.  If these sales take place, the Partnership will
   distribute  the capital  transaction  proceeds  from these  prepayments  to
   investors  through  special distributions.   The  General Partners  will be
   reviewing the  anticipated cash  flows from  the  remaining investments  to
   determine whether the current  distribution rate will be sustainable  or if
   an  adjustment  is necessary.    If  the  General  Partners  determine  the
   distribution rates needs to be adjusted,  the timing of the adjustment will
   depend on when these PIMs prepay.

   Many of the other properties in the portfolio had solid performances during
   1996.  Average  occupancy  at  most of  the  properties  exceeded  90%, and
   moderate increases  in market  rental rates  were achieved  at many  of the
   properties.   Ten properties  generated sufficient operating  cash to reach
   the  threshold  for payment  of participation  interest to  the Partnership
   during 1996.

   Two other properties experienced operating difficulties over the past year,
   primarily due to  the age of the assets and the challenges of a competitive
   market.  Remington Place Apartments incurred an operating deficit under its
   workout plan  during 1996 which was  funded by advances from  the borrower.
   The deficit  was caused in  large part  by increased expenses  necessary to
   operate the aging building and high turnover costs  associated with leasing
   older  apartments.     The  Fort  Washington,   Maryland  market  is   very
   competitive,  and   residents  value   modern  amenities.     If   cosmetic
   improvements  are  not  undertaken  at  the  property, it  is  likely  that
   occupancy and rental  rates will suffer.  The Partnership  and the borrower
   are discussing a new workout plan  which would bring new owner equity  into
   the property to  complete some improvements in exchange  for continued debt
   service relief  and a  change in  the participation  features of  the loan.
   Rock  Creek  Springs, located  in  Silver  Spring, Maryland,  faced  a very
   similar situation.   However, the  borrower of  the Rock Creek  Springs PIM
   defaulted on its debt service obligation  during the third quarter of 1996.
   FNMA,  the guarantor  of the  MBS secured  by the  PIM, has been  unable to
   negotiate a  workout plan  with the  borrower and  exercised its  option to
   payoff the MBS in February 1997 and pursue a foreclosure.
   
   For the  first five  years of  the PIMs the  borrowers are  prohibited from
   repaying.

   For the  second five years,  the borrower can  repay the loans  incurring a
   prepayment penalty.  The Partnership has the option to call certain PIMs by
   accelerating their maturity, if the loans are not prepaid by the tenth year
   after permanent  funding.   The Partnership  will determine  the merits  of
   exercising the  call option  for each PIM  as economic  conditions warrant.
   Such factors  as  the condition  of  the asset,  local  market  conditions,
   interest  rates  and  available  financing  will  have an  impact  on  this
   decision.

   Assessment of Credit Risk

   The Partnership's investments in mortgages are guaranteed or insured by the
   Federal  National Mortgage  Association ("FNMA"),  the Government  National
   Mortgage  Association ("GNMA"), the Federal  Home Loan Mortgage Corporation
   ("FHLMC") and the  Department of Housing and Urban  Development ("HUD") and
   therefore the certainty of their cash  flows and the risk of material  loss
   of the amounts invested depends on the creditworthiness of these entities.

   FNMA   is  a  federally  chartered   private  corporation  that  guarantees
   obligations originated under its programs.   FHLMC is a federally chartered
   corporation  that guarantees obligations originated  under its programs and
   is wholly-owned by  the twelve Federal Home Loan Banks.   These obligations
   are not  guaranteed by the  U.S. Government or  the Federal Home  Loan Bank
   Board.   GNMA guarantees the full and timely payment of principal and basic
   interest on the  securities it issues, which represent  interests in pooled
   mortgages insured  by HUD.   Obligations insured by  HUD, an agency  of the
   U.S.  Government, are  backed by  the full  faith  and credit  of the  U.S.
   Government.

   Distributable Cash Flow and Net Cash Proceeds from Capital Transactions

   Shown below  is the  calculation of  Distributable Cash  Flow and  Net Cash
   Proceeds  from  Capital Transactions  as  defined  in  Section  17  of  the
   Partnership Agreement  and the source  of cash  distributions for the  year
   ended December 31, 1996 and the  period from inception through December 31,
   1996.   The General Partners  provide certain  of the information  below to
   meet  requirements of  the Partnership Agreement  and because  they believe
   that it  is an appropriate  supplemental measure of  operating performance.
   However, Distributable  Cash  Flow  and  Net  Cash  Proceeds  from  Capital
   Transactions  should not be considered by the reader as a substitute to net
   income as an  indicator of  the Partnership's operating  performance or  to
   cash flows as a measure of liquidity.

   during the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994.

   Net  income decreased  during  1996 as  compared to  1995  by approximately
   $1,898,000  due primarily  to a  reduction in  base interest  in PIMS  as a
   result  of the prepayments  of the Water View  and Tarnhill Apartments PIMs
   and  interest rate  reductions on the  Crosscreek Apartments  and Remington
   Place Apartments.   Interest income on  MBS decreased $280,000  in 1996  as
   compared  to 1995,  because principal  collections reduced  the outstanding
   principal balance of  the Partnership s MBS  investments. These items  were
   offset  by an  increase  in  participation  income of  $499,000  which  was
   primarily  the result  of  receiving shared  appreciation  income from  the
   prepayment of the Tarnhill Apartments PIM of $983,000, net of a decrease in
   shared income and  minimal additional interest recorded in 1996 as compared
   to 1995 of $484,000.   Other interest income increased in 1996  as compared
   to  1995  due  to  the  short-term  investment of  the  proceeds  from  the
   prepayments until such funds were ultimately distributed to  the investors.
   Amortization expense  increased for  1996 as compared  to 1995  because the
   Partnership  fully amortized  the remaining  balances of  prepaid  fees and
   expenses  associated  with  the Water  View  and  Tarnhill  Apartments PIM.
   Partnership expenses have decreased  during each of the three years  in the
   period  ended December 31,  1996, due  primarily to lower  asset management
   fees, expense reimbursements to  affiliates, and general and administrative
   expenses.

       Net income  increased slightly  during  1995 as  compared to  1994  due
   primarily  to  an  increase  in  participation  income  and  lower  expense
   reimbursements to affiliates.

   To the Partners of
   Krupp Insured Mortgage Limited Partnership:

          We have audited the financial statements and the financial statement
   schedule  of Krupp Insured Mortgage Limited Partnership (the "Partnership")
   listed  in  the index  on  page F-2  of this  Form  10-K.   These financial
   statements and financial statement  schedule are the responsibility of  the
   General Partners of  the Partnership.  Our responsibility is  to express an
   opinion  on these  financial  statements and  financial statement  schedule
   based on our audits.

          We conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted
   auditing standards.   Those standards require that  we plan and perform the
   audits  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 the General  Partners of
   the  Partnership, 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 financial statements referred  to above present
   fairly, in  all material respects, the financial  position of Krupp Insured
   Mortgage Limited  Partnership as  of December 31,  1996 and  1995, and  the
   results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in
   the period ended  December 31, 1996 in  conformity with generally  accepted
   accounting  principles.    In  addition,  in  our  opinion,  the  financial
   statement schedule referred  to above, when  considered in relation  to the
   basic financial  statements  taken as  a  whole,  presents fairly,  in  all
   material respects, the information required to be included therein.

                    KRUPP INSURED MORTGAGE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                                
   A.     Organization

          Krupp  Insured Mortgage Limited  Partnership (the "Partnership") was
          formed  on March  21,  1988  by  filing  a  Certificate  of  Limited
          Partnership in  The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.   The Partnership
          issued  all of the General Partner Interests to two General Partners
          in  exchange for  capital contributions  aggregating $3,000.   Krupp
          Plus Corporation and Mortgage Services  Partners Limited Partnership
          are the General  Partners of  the Partnership  and Krupp  Depositary
          Corporation is the Corporate Limited Partner.  Except  under certain
          limited  circumstances  upon  termination of  the  Partnership,  the
          General Partners  are not  required to  make any additional  capital
          contributions.   The  Partnership terminates  on December  31, 2028,
          unless terminated earlier upon the  occurrence of certain events  as
          set forth in the Partnership Agreement.

          The Partnership commenced the  public offering of Units on  July 22,
          1988  and completed its public offering  on May 23, 1990 having sold
          14,956,796 Units  for $298,678,321 net of  purchase volume discounts
          of $457,599.

   B.     Significant Accounting Policies

          The Partnership uses the following accounting policies for financial
          reporting purposes,  which may differ in certain respects from those
          used for federal income tax purposes (see Note G):

                 PIMs

                 The Partnership carries its  investments in PIMs at amortized
                 cost  as it  has  the ability  and  intention to  hold  these
                 investments.    Basic interest  is  recognized  based on  the
                 stated  rate   of  the   Department  of  Housing   and  Urban
                 Development  ("HUD") insured  mortgage  (less the  servicer's
                 fee) or  the stated  coupon rate  of the  Government National
                 Mortgage  Association ("GNMA")  or Federal  National Mortgage
                 Association  ("FNMA") MBS.    The  Trust  recognizes  interest
                 related to the  participation features as earned and  when it
                 deems these amounts collectible.

                 MBS

                 At  December 31, 1995, the Partnership in accordance with the
                 Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board s  Special  Report on
                 Statement  115, "Accounting for  Certain Investments  in Debt
                 and Equity  Securities", reclassified its  MBS portfolio from
                 held-to-maturity  to  available-for-sale.    The  Partnership
                 carries  its  MBS  at fair  market  value  and  reflects  any
                 unrealized  gains   (losses)  as  a  separate   component  of
                 Partners'  Equity.     Prior   to  December  31,   1995,  the
                 Partnership carried its MBS portfolio at amortized cost.  The
                 Partnership amortizes purchase premiums or discounts over the
                 life of the underlying mortgages using the effective interest
                 method.

                 Cash and Cash Equivalents

                 The  Partnership  includes  all  short-term  investments with
                 maturities  of   three  months  or  less  from  the  date  of
                 acquisition in  cash and  cash equivalents.   The Partnership
                 invests its cash primarily in deposits and money market funds
                 with  a commercial bank  and has not experienced  any loss to
                 date on its invested cash.

                 Prepaid Fees and Expenses

                 Prepaid fees and expenses represent prepaid acquisition fees,
                 expenses and   prepaid participation servicing  fees paid for
                 the  acquisition  and servicing  of  PIMs.   The  Partnership
                 amortizes prepaid  acquisition  fees  and  expenses  using  a
                 method that approximates the effective interest method over a
                 period of ten  to twelve years,  which represents the  actual
                 maturity or anticipated call date of the underlying mortgage.
                 Acquisition expenses incurred on potential acquisitions which
                 were not consummated were charged to operations.

                 The  Partnership  amortizes  prepaid participation  servicing
                 fees using a method  that approximates the effective interest
                 method over a ten-year  period beginning at final endorsement
                 of  the loan if a Department of Housing and Urban Development
                 ("HUD") loan and at closing if a FNMA loan.

                 Income Taxes

                 The  Partnership is  not liable  for federal or  state income
                 taxes as Partnership income  is allocated to the partners for
                 income tax purposes.  In the event that the Partnership's tax
                 returns are examined by the Internal Revenue Service or state
                 taxing authority and  the examination results in a  change in
                 Partnership taxable  income, such change will  be reported to
                 the partners.

                 Estimates and Assumptions

                 The preparation  of financial  statements in accordance  with
                 generally accepted accounting principles  requires management
                 to make  estimates and  assumptions that affect  the reported
                 amount of  assets  and  liabilities,  contingent  assets  and
                 liabilities  and revenues  and  expenses  during the  period.
                 Actual results could differ from those estimates.

   C.     PIMs

          The  Partnership has investments in 20 PIMs.  The Partnership's PIMs
          consist of (a) a GNMA or FNMA MBS representing the securitized first
          mortgage loan  on the  underlying property  or a  sole participation
          interest  in the mortgage  loan originated  under HUD's  FHA lending
          program    (collectively   the   "insured   mortgages"),   and   (b)
          participation interests  in the  revenue stream and  appreciation of
          the underlying property  above specified base levels.   The borrower
          conveys these  participation features  to the Partnership  generally
          through  a   subordinated   promissory  note   and   mortgage   (the
          "Agreement").

          The Partnership  receives guaranteed  monthly payments  of principal
          and  interest on  the GNMA  and FNMA  MBS, and  HUD insures  the FHA
          mortgage loan and  the mortgage loan underlying  the GNMA MBS.   The
          borrower usually  cannot prepay the  first mortgage loan  during the
          first five years and  may prepay the first mortgage  loan thereafter
          subject  to a 9% prepayment penalty in  years six through nine, a 1%
          prepayment penalty in year ten and no prepayment penalty thereafter.
          The Partnership  may receive  interest related to  its participation
          interests  in the  underlying property,  however, these  amounts are
          neither insured nor guaranteed.

          Generally, the participation features consist of the following:  (i)
          "Minimum Additional Interest" which is at the rate of  .5% per annum
          calculated  on the unpaid principal balance of the first mortgage on
          the underlying property, (ii) "Shared  Income Interest" which is 25%
          of the  monthly  gross rental  income  generated by  the  underlying
          property in excess of a specified base, but only to  the extent that
          it exceeds the amount  of Minimum Additional Interest earned  during
          such  month, (iii) "Shared   Appreciation Interest" which  is 25% of
          any increase in the value of the underlying property in  excess of a
          specified  base.    Payment   of  participation  interest  from  the
          operations of  the property is  limited in  any year to  50% of  net
          revenue or surplus  cash as  defined by FNMA  or HUD,  respectively.
          The aggregate  amount of Minimum Additional  Interest, Shared Income
          Interest and Shared Appreciation  Interest payable by the underlying
          borrower on the  maturity date  generally cannot exceed  50% of  any
          increase  in  value of  the property.    However, generally  any net
          proceeds  from the  sale  or refinancing  of  the property  will  be
          available to satisfy any accrued but unpaid Shared Income or Minimum
          Additional Interest.
    
          Shared Appreciation Interest  is payable when  one of the  following
          occurs:  (1) the  sale of  the underlying  property to  an unrelated
          third party on a date which  is later than five years from  the date
          of the Agreement, (2) the maturity date or accelerated maturity date
          of  the  Agreement,  or (3)  prepayment  of  amounts  due under  the
          Agreement and the insured mortgage.

          Under the  Agreement,   the Partnership,  upon giving  twelve months
          written notice, can accelerate the maturity date of the Agreement to
          a date not earlier than ten years from the date of the Agreement for
          (a)  the  payment  of  all  participation  interest  due  under  the
          Agreement as of the accelerated maturity date, or (b) the payment of
          all participation interest due under the  Agreement plus all amounts
          due on the first mortgage note on the property.

          On February 16, 1996,  the Partnership received a prepayment  of the
          Water View Apartments PIM.  The Partnership received the outstanding
          principal  balance of  $16,651,149 plus  outstanding interest.   The
          Partnership did not receive  any prepayment penalty or participation
          income from this  PIM.   During 1995, the  operating performance  of
          Water  View  Apartments  declined  due  to  insufficient  levels  of
          occupancy  and  higher  maintenance   and  repair  expenses  due  to
          vandalism.   As  a result,  the  borrower went  into default  on the
          underlying loan.   Normally, a  loan like this  would eventually  be
          recovered  through  an  insurance   claim  process.    However,  the
          Partnership  was able to receive  its insured proceeds  on this loan
          earlier than  anticipated  due to  Bear Stearn s  assumption of  the
          underlying insured mortgage.   As  a result of  the prepayment,  the
          Partnership fully amortized the  remaining prepaid fees and expenses
          associated with this PIM.

          On February 29, 1996,  the Partnership received a prepayment  of the
          Tarnhill PIM.   The  Partnership received the  outstanding principal
          balance of $7,483,000, Shared  Appreciation Interest of $982,845 and
          Minimum Additional and  Shared Income  Interest of $223,728.   As  a
          result  of  the  prepayment,  the Partnership  fully  amortized  the
          remaining prepaid fees and expenses associated with this PIM.

      The Partnership's PIMs consisted  of the following at December  31, 1996
      and 1995:


                 Aggregate              Permanent     Maturity

   (a)    Includes three PIMs  - Richmond Park, Saratoga, and Marina  Shores -
          in which the  Partnership holds 38%, 50%  and 29% of the  total PIM,
          respectively.  The remaining portion is held by an affiliate  of the
          Partnership.

   (b)    The  Partnership had  twelve  GNMA PIMs  as  of December  31,  1995.
          During February 1996,  the Partnership received payoffs of the Water
          View and Tarnhill Apartments PIMs.

   The  underlying mortgages of  the PIMs  are collateralized  by multi-family
   apartment complexes located in 13 states.  The apartment complexes range in
   size from 92 to 736 units.

   D. MBS

      At December 31,  1996, the Partnership's MBS portfolio  has an amortized
      cost of  $16,931,538 and gross  unrealized gains and losses  of $566,669
      and $139,900, respectively.  At December 31, 1995, the Partnership's MBS
      portfolio has  an  amortized cost  of $20,230,995  and gross  unrealized
      gains of  $895,050.  The  MBS portfolio has maturity  dates ranging from
      1999 to 2024.

   E. Partners' Equity

      Profits  from Partnership  operations  and Distributable  Cash Flow  are
      allocated  97% to  the Unitholders  and Corporate  Limited  Partner (the
      "Limited Partners") and 3% to the General Partners.

      Upon  the  occurrence  of  a  capital transaction,  as  defined  in  the
      Partnership Agreement,  net cash proceeds  and profits from  the capital
      transaction will  be distributed  first, to  the Limited  Partners until
      they have received a return of their total invested capital, second,  to
      the General  Partners until they have  received a return  of their total
      invested capital,  third, 99%  to  the Limited  Partners and  1% to  the
      General Partners until the  Limited Partners receive an amount  equal to
      any deficiency in the 11% cumulative return on their invested capital that
      exists through fiscal years prior
      to the date of the capital  transaction, fourth, to the class of General
      Partners until they have received  an amount equal to 4% of  all amounts
      of cash distributed under all capital transactions and fifth, 96% to the
      Limited Partners and 4% to the  General Partners.  Losses from a capital
      transaction will  be allocated 97% to the Limited Partners and 3% to the
      General Partners.

      As  of December 31, 1996, the following cumulative partner contributions
      and allocations have been made since inception of the Partnership:

   F.            Related Party Transactions

                 Under  the terms  of the  Partnership Agreement,  the  General
                 Partners or their  affiliates receive an Asset Management  Fee
                 equal to  .75% per  annum of  the value  of the  Partnership's
                 invested assets payable  quarterly.  The General Partners  may
                 also receive an  incentive management fee  in an  amount equal
                 to .3%  per annum on the  Partnership's Total Invested  Assets
                 providing the Unitholders receive  a specified  non-cumulative
                 annual return on  their Invested Capital.   Total fees payable
                 to  the General  Partners  as asset  management  or  incentive
                 management fees shall  not exceed 9.05% of distributable  cash
                 flow over the life of the Partnership.

                 Additionally,  the Partnership  reimburses  affiliates  of the
                 General Partners  for certain expenses  incurred in connection
                 with maintaining the books and  records of the Partnership and
                 the  preparation   and  mailing  of   financial  reports,  tax
                 information and other communications to investors.

   G.            Federal Income Taxes

                 accompanying statement of  income with the income reported  in
                 the  Partnership's  1996  federal  income  tax  return  is  as
                 follows:

                 Net income for federal income tax purposes           $11,374,988


         The allocation of the 1996 net income for federal income tax purposes
         is as follows:

                                                          Portfolio
                                                           Income  

                     Unitholders                          $11,033,665 
                     Corporate Limited Partner                     74
                     General Partners                         341,249

                                                          $11,374,988

              For the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 the average
              per  unit income  to  the  Unitholders  for federal  income  tax
              purposes was $.76, $.93 and $.91, respectively.

   H.  Fair Value Disclosure of Financial Instruments

       The Partnership uses the following methods and assumptions to  estimate
       the fair value of each class of financial instruments:

          Cash and cash equivalents

          The  carrying  amount  approximates fair  value  due  to  the  short
          maturity of those instruments.

          MBS

          The  Partnership estimates  the fair  value of  MBS based  on quoted
          market prices.

          PIMs

          There  is  no  established  trading  market for  these  investments.
          Management estimates the fair value of the PIMs using quoted  market
          prices  of MBS having the same stated  coupon rate.  Management does
          not include any participation  income in the Partnership s estimated
          fair  value arising  from  appreciation of  the  properties, because
          Management does not  believe it can predict the time  of realization
          of the feature  with any  certainty.   Based on  the estimated  fair
          value determined  using these  methods and assumptions,  the Trust's
          investments in  PIMs  had  gross  unrealized  gains  and  losses  of
          approximately $1,506,000 and  $372,000, respectively at December 31,
          1996,  respectively,  and  gross unrealized  gains  of approximately
          $5,245,000 at December 31, 1995.

       At  December  31, 1996  and  1995, the  estimated  fair  values of  the
       Partnership's financial instruments are as follows:


                                                             (Amounts in thousands)

   (a)  The  Participating  Insured  Mortgages  ("PIMs")  consist  of  either a
        mortgage-backed security ("MBS") issued and  guaranteed by the  Federal
        National Mortgage  Association ("FNMA"), an  MBS issued  and guaranteed
        by  the Government  National  Mortgage Association  ("GNMA") or  a sole
        participation  interest in a first mortgage loan  insured by the United
        States  Department  of  Housing and  Urban  Development  ("HUD")  and a
        subordinated  promissory  note  and  mortgage   or  shared  income  and
        appreciation  agreement  with  the  underlying  Borrower  that  conveys
        participation interests in the  revenue stream and  appreciation of the
        underlying property above certain specified base levels.

   (b)  Represents the permanent interest  rate of the GNMA  or FNMA MBS or the
        HUD-insured  first mortgage less  the servicers  fee.   The Partnership
        may  also receive  additional interest  which consists  of (I)  Minimum
        Additional  Interest  based on  a percentage  of  the unpaid  principal
        balance  of the  first mortgage  on  the  property, (ii)  Shared Income
        Interest  based on a  percentage of  monthly gross  income generated by
        the underlying property in excess of  a specified base amount (but only
        to the  extent it  exceeds the  amount of  Minimum Additional  Interest
        received during such  month), (iii) Shared Appreciation Interest  based
        on  a  percentage  of any  increase  in  the value  of  the  underlying
        property in excess of a specified base value.

   (c)  Minimum additional interest is  at a rate of  .5% per annum  calculated
        on the unpaid principal balance of the first mortgage note.

   (d)  Minimum additional interest is at a rate of  1% per annum calculated on
        the unpaid principal balance of the first mortgage note.

   (e)  Minimum additional  interest is at a rate of .75%  per annum calculated
        on the unpaid principal balance of the first mortgage note.

   (f)  Shared income interest is  based on 25% of  monthly gross rental income
        over a specified base amount.

   (g)  Shared appreciation  interest is based  on 25% of  any increase in  the
        value of the project over the specified base value.

   (h)  Shared income interest is based  on 30% of monthly  gross rental income
        over a specified base amount.

   (i)  Shared appreciation  interest is based  on 30% of  any increase in  the
        value of the project over the specified base value.

   (j)  Shared income interest is based on  35% of monthly gross  rental income
        over a specified base amount and  shared appreciation interest is based
        on 35% of any increase in the value  of the project over the  specified
        base value.

   (k)  The  Partnership's  GNMA  MBS  and  HUD  direct  mortgages  have   call
        provisions, which allow the Partnership to accelerate their  respective
        maturity date.

   (l)  The  normal monthly  payment consisting  of principal  and interest  is
        payable monthly at level amounts over the term of  the GNMA MBS and the
        HUD direct mortgages.

   (m)  PIMs generally may not  be prepaid during the  first five years and may
        be  prepaid subject  to a  9% prepayment penalty  in years  six through
        nine, a 1%  prepayment penalty  in year ten  and no prepayment  penalty
        after year ten.

   (n)  The normal monthly payment consisting of  principal and interest for  a
        FNMA PIM is payable  at level amounts based on a 35-year  amortization.
        All unpaid  principal and accrued interest  is due at  the end of  year
        ten.

   (o)  The  Partnership agreed to reduce the permanent loan  rate to 5.75% per
        annum effective March 1, 1992, with  periodic increases in the interest
        rate  through March 1,  1998 when it will  reach the original permanent
        rate  of 8.25%  per  annum.   As consideration  for this  interest rate
        reduction, the Partnership will receive 25%  of the available net  cash
        flow, will increase the Shared Appreciation  Interest rate from 30%  to
        50% and will  decrease the base  value used for  this calculation  from
        $10,615,000 to  $9,650,000.   Previously,  Minimum Additional  Interest
        was at a rate of .5%  per annum and Shared Income Interest was based on
        30% gross rental income over a specified base amount.

   (p)  The Partnership  agreed to reduce the permanent loan rate  to 6.75% per
        annum from January 1, 1994 through December 31, 1995, with an  increase
        then to  7.0% per annum beginning  January 1, 1996 through December 31,
        1996 and thereafter 7.5% per annum until maturity.  This 
        was done  in exchange  for a  lower Shared  Appreciation base  value of
        $13,200,000 from $15,450,000 and an obligation from the borrower to
        repay the interest not paid under the interest rate reduction upon  the
        sale of  the property  or the  maturity or  prepayment of  subordinated
        promissory note.

   (q)  The  approximate  principal  balance  due at  maturity  for  each  PIM,
        respectively, is as follows:

                                 PIM                    Amount

                          The Enclave Apartments      $ 8,500,000
