Item 2.   Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

       On  May  28,  2003,  the Partnership purchased  a  newly
constructed  Johnny  Carino's  restaurant  in  Farmington,  New
Mexico  from  SFG Farmington I Limited Partnership.  The  total
cash  purchase price of the land and building was approximately
$2,200,000.  SFG  Farmington  I  Limited  Partnership  is   not
affiliated with the Partnership.

       The cash, used in purchasing the property, was from  the
proceeds of sale of properties.

Item 7.   Financial Statements and Exhibits.

          (a)Financial statements of businesses acquired -  Not
             Applicable.  Property was newly constructed.

          (b)On May 28, 2003,  the  Partnership  purchased  the
             property for $2,200,000. The property was acquired
             with cash which was provided from proceeds of sale
             of  properties.   A  limited  number  of  proforma
             adjustments are required to illustrate the effects
             of the transaction on the balance sheet and income
             statement.   The  following narrative  description
             is furnished in lieu of the proforma statements:

             Assuming   the   Partnership  had   acquired   the
             property  on  January 1, 2002,  the  Partnership's
             Investments  in  Real Estate would have  increased
             by  $2,200,000 and its Current Assets (cash) would
             have decreased by $2,200,000.

             The  Total  Income for the Partnership would  have
             increased  from $1,660,149 to $1,875,955  for  the
             year ended December 31, 2002 and from $431,442  to
             $452,433  for  the three months  ended  March  31,
             2003  if  the  Partnership had owned the  property
             during the periods.

             Depreciation  Expense  would  have  increased   by
             $70,838  and  $17,709 for the year ended  December
             31,  2002  and  the three months ended  March  31,
             2003, respectively.

             The  net  effect  of  these  proforma  adjustments
             would  have  caused Net Income  to  increase  from
             $2,469,538  to  $2,614,506 and  from  $248,741  to
             $252,023, which would have resulted in Net  Income
             of  $111.66  and  $10.84 per  Limited  Partnership
             Unit  outstanding for the year ended December  31,
             2002  and  the three months ended March 31,  2002,
             respectively.
