Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the Partnership's annual 1995 audited
consolidated financial statements within Form 10-K.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include all
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to
present a fair statement of financial position as of May 31, 1996
and the results of operations and cash flows for the six months
ended May 31, 1996 and 1995 and the statement of partners'
capital for the six months ended May 31, 1996.  Results of
operations for the periods are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year.

No significant events have occurred subsequent to fiscal year
1995 and no material contingencies exist, which would require
disclosure in this interim report per Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01,
Paragraph (a)(5).


Part I, Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of
                 Financial Condition and Results of Operations


Liquidity and Capital Resources
At May 31, 1996, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of
$1,939,723 which were invested in unaffiliated money market
funds, compared with $2,253,221 at November 30, 1995.  The
decrease reflects mortgage principal payments, additions to real
estate and cash distributions to Partners exceeding cash provided
by operating activities during the first half of fiscal 1996.
The Partnership also maintains a restricted cash balance, which
totaled $304,509 at May 31, 1996, representing escrows for real
estate taxes and insurance required under the terms of the
Lakeview Village mortgage.

The General Partners initiated an improvement program at Lakeview
Village and The Hamptons at Quail Hollow, to upgrade the
properties.  This program, which includes roof repairs at
Lakeview Village and exterior painting and asphalt repairs at The
Hamptons, is intended to protect the properties' position within
their respective markets, which are growing increasingly
competitive with the addition of new apartment properties, and
position the properties for increases in revenue and market
value.  Thus far, the roof repairs at Lakeview Village and
asphalt repairs at the Hamptons at Quail Hollow are complete,
with the other repairs currently underway.

The General Partners declared a regular cash distribution of
$7.50 per Unit for the quarter ended May 31, 1996 which will be
paid to investors on or about July 15, 1996.  The level of future
distributions will be evaluated on a quarterly basis and will
depend on the Partnership's operating results and future cash
needs.  It is anticipated that cash from reserves may be required
to fund a portion of the distributions during 1996 as a result of
expenditures required at two of the Partnership's properties.

The General Partners have engaged a commercial real estate broker
to market the Canterbury Park property located in Raleigh, North
Carolina.  The General Partners are currently in negotiations
with several qualified buyers, however, there can be no assurance
that a sale will be completed or that any particular price for
the property can be obtained.  In the event that a sale is not
consummated, the Partnership will continue to hold the property
as an investment.


Results of Operations
Partnership operations for the three and six months ended May 31,
1996 generated net income of $251,930 and $462,466, respectively,
compared with net income of $195,972 and $374,497, respectively,
for the corresponding period in fiscal 1995.  The increases in
net income are primarily attributable to higher rental income at
the Partnership's three properties, partially offset by an
increase in property operating expense.

Rental income totaled $1,166,105 and $2,333,638, respectively,
for the three and six months ended May 31, 1996 compared with
$1,116,752 and $2,215,449, respectively, for the corresponding
period in fiscal 1995.  The increases are primarily attributable
to higher rental rates at all three of the Partnership's
properties, and higher occupancy at Lakeview Village.

Property operating expenses for the three and six months ended
May 31, 1996 totaled $510,907 and $1,061,465, respectively,
compared with $506,595 and $1,006,140 respectively, for the
corresponding periods in fiscal 1995.  The increases are
attributable to higher repairs and maintenance expenses at
Lakeview Village and The Hamptons at Quail Hollow, primarily due
to painting and interior carpet replacement.

During the first six months of fiscal 1996 and 1995, average
occupancy levels at the Partnership's properties were as follows:

           Property                             1996    1995
           Canterbury Park                      96%     96%
           The Hamptons at Quail Hollow         95%     96%
           Lakeview Village                     97%     94%

Part II   Other Information

Items 1-4 Not applicable.

Item 5    Other Information.

          An offer dated April 19, 1996, was sent by Equity
          Resource Fund XVIII ("Fund XVIII") to limited partners
          of the Partnership to purchase up to 4.8% of their
          limited partnership interests for $185 per unit prior
          to the expiration of the offer on May 19, 1996.

          On June 3, 1996, the General Partners of the
          Partnership sent a letter to limited partners
          recommending against the offer because the price was
          inadequate especially in view of the Net Asset Value of
          the units.

Item 6    Exhibits and reports on Form 8-K.

          (a)  Exhibits -

          (27) Financial Data Schedule

          (b)  Reports on Form 8-K -


          On March 15, 1996, based upon, among other things, the
          advice of Partnership counsel, Skadden, Arps, Slate,
          Meagher & Flom, the General Partners adopted a
          resolution that states, among other things, if a
          Change of Control (as defined below) occurs, the
          General Partners may distribute the Partnership's cash
          balances not required for its ordinary course day-to-
          day operations.  "Change of Control" means any
          purchase or offer to purchase more than 10% of the
          Units that is not approved in advance by the General
          Partners.  In determining the amount of the
          distribution, the General Partners may take into
          account all material factors.  In addition, the
          Partnership will not be obligated to make any
          distribution to any partner and no partner will be
          entitled to receive any distribution until the General
          Partners have declared the distribution and
          established a record date and distribution date for
          the distribution.  The Partnership filed a Form 8-K
          disclosing this resolution on March 21, 1996.
