PART I
Item 1 - Business.
The Registrant is a North Carolina limited partnership organized on November
14, 1985. The General Partners of the Registrant are Marion Bass Real Estate
Group, Inc. (the Managing General Partner), a North Carolina corporation, and
Marion F. Bass (the Individual General Partner), president and chief executive
officer of the Managing General Partner (collectively, the General Partners).
The Managing General Partner is wholly owned by Marion Bass Investment Group,
Inc., which in turn is wholly owned by Marion F. Bass.
By means of a public offering registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the Offering), the Registrant offered and sold 9,938 units of
limited partnership interests (the Units) at $500 per Unit. On July 9, 1986, the
proceeds of the Offering of 3,029 Units were removed from escrow (the Initial
Closing) aggregating $1,332,760 after deduction of selling commissions and
organization and offering expenses. Subsequent to the Initial Closing,
additional limited partners were admitted monthly.
On January 30, 1987 the Offering terminated with aggregate proceeds
from the Offering totaling $4,969,000. After deduction for selling commissions
and organization and offering expenses of $596,280, net proceeds of $4,372,720
were available for partnership operations. In addition to these proceeds the
General Partners contributed amounts totaling $50,192.
The Registrant's principal investment objectives are to (1) obtain capital
appreciation, (2) provide cash distributions from operations, (3) preserve and
protect the capital of the Partners, (4) build equity through the reduction of
mortgage indebtedness encumbering the Registrant's properties, and (5) provide
tax losses equal to or in excess of cash distributions during the initial years
of the Registrant's operations.
On November 7, 1986, the Registrant purchased 23.75 acres of unimproved land
in Pineville, North Carolina for a total purchase price of $930,002. On March
18, 1987 the Registrant contracted with Marion Bass Construction Company (MBCC),
an affiliate of the General Partners, for the construction of an apartment
complex on the property containing 24 three-bedroom, 106 two-bedroom, and 72
one-bedroom apartment units for the fixed sum of $7,513,850. On July 15, 1987,
the contract was amended to provide for certain enhanced amenities at a revised
construction cost of $8,113,850. The construction of the project formerly known
as Sabal Point, now known as Sabal Point I, was completed in August, 1988. The
Registrant entered into an agreement with Marion Bass Equity Group, Inc., an
affiliate of the General Partners, (MBEG) wherein MBEG acted as development
manager in connection with the development and
-2-
construction of properties, including coordinating and supervising site
selection, property acquisition and performance by the general contractor under
the construction contract. MBEG received a fee of $600,000 in connection with
the development of Sabal Point I, of which $149,169 was paid in 1988. The total
cost of the acquisition, development and construction of the project, including
development fees, financing costs and construction period interest was
$10,087,691.
On November 17, 1987, the Registrant consummated construction financing for
Sabal Point I with First Union National Bank of North Carolina (FUNB). The
construction loan in the principal amount of $6,210,850 had a maturity date of
July 1, 1990 and required monthly payments of interest at an annual rate of
FUNB's prime rate plus 5/8 of 1% on the outstanding amount of the loan. Through
March 7, 1989, the Registrant had drawn $5,835,850, under the FUNB construction
loan.
On March 7, 1989, The Variable Annuity Life Insurance Company of Houston,
Texas made a permanent loan to the Registrant in the amount of $6,250,000. The
permanent loan has a ten-year term with interest accruing at 10 1/8% per annum.
Principal and accrued interest are payable monthly, but installments of
principal are based upon a thirty-year amortization schedule. The remaining
principal and all unpaid and accrued interest will be due and payable on April
1, 1999. After the pay-off of the indebtedness to FUNB and payment of expenses
relating to the permanent loan, approximately $323,464 was paid to the
Registrant.
The Registrant has entered into a property management agreement with Marion
Bass Properties, Inc. (MBP), an affiliate of the General Partners. The agreement
provides that MBP will be responsible for managing, operating and leasing the
Registrant's properties and that MBP will receive a fee for its services in an
amount equal to the lesser of (a) fees that are competitive and comparative with
fees of unaffiliated parties providing comparable services in the locality of
the Registrant's property, or (b) 5% of the monthly gross revenue from the
Registrant's property. MBP will also be entitled to reimbursement of on-site
management and maintenance services. The agreement will expire three years from
the date that occupancy of the Sabal Point I project begins, and will be
automatically renewed unless either party gives notice of its intention not to
renew. In addition, either party may terminate the agreement without penalty
upon 60 days' written notice. In any event, the agreement will automatically
terminate upon dissolution of the Registrant.
Cash at December 31, 1995, totalled $223,210. On February 1, 1996, the
Registrant declared a distribution of $100,000 to be made in 1996. If the
remaining cash and other available cash flow are insufficient to cover expenses,
then the Registrant will have to obtain additional funds through borrowings or
refinancings.
-3-
Available operating cash fluctuates with partnership operations. See discussion
in Item 7 under Liquidity and Capital Resources.
The Registrant does not anticipate the acquisition or development of any
additional properties.
Upon the sale of any property by the Registrant, the proceeds of the sale
will be distributed to the partners. Therefore, it is intended that the
Registrant will be self-liquidating. The General Partners currently intend to
dispose of all properties purchased within nine to twelve years of the purchase.
Competition among owners of apartment complexes of the type and in the areas
that the Registrant owns apartment complexes generally is high. Competition is
based generally on price and features offered. Many of the Registrant's
competitors have greater assets and more experience than the Registrant and the
General Partners.
One or both of the General Partners serve as a general partner in eight
private partnerships which own various income-producing, multi-family
residential property. None of the private partnerships sponsored by the General
Partners currently contemplates the acquisition of additional properties. The
General Partners sponsored three public real estate partnerships, Bass Real
Estate Fund-84, Bass Income Plus Fund and Bass Real Estate Fund III with similar
objectives as the Registrant. Bass Income Plus Fund acquired a nine-acre tract
of land adjacent to Sabal Point I, on which MBCC constructed an apartment
complex of 88 units. Bass Real Estate Fund III acquired another adjacent parcel
of twelve acres with an apartment complex of 84 units. Conflicts could develop
between the Registrant and other existing or future partnerships which the
General Partners may manage. The General Partners intend to devote only such
time to the business of the Registrant as in their judgment is reasonably
required. The General Partners are engaged in other similar activities which
also require their time and attention.
The Registrant's property adjoins apartment complexes owned by Bass
Real Estate Fund-III and Bass Income Plus Fund. In order to achieve greater
economies of scale, Marion Bass Properties, Inc., the property manager for the
Registrant and the other owners, has combined the management and leasing
operations for all of the adjoining complexes. Under this arrangement, the
expenses are allocated on a per unit basis except for those costs that can be
directly attributed to a single complex. When leasing units, the
-4-
property manager shows available units in different complexes and the tenant
chooses the unit that he desires. The occupancy on December 31, 1995 for Sabal
Point I was 97% and the adjoining complexes were 95% and 96%.
As of December 31, 1995, the Registrant did not directly employ any persons
in a full-time position. Certain employees of the Managing General Partner and
affiliates performed services for the Registrant during the year.
Item 2 - Properties.
The Registrant completed construction in August, 1988 of a 202 unit
apartment community consisting of 2 two-story apartment buildings, 7 three-story
apartment buildings and 1 clubhouse building located on a 23.75 acre tract of
land in suburban Mecklenburg County, North Carolina formerly known as Sabal
Point, now known as Sabal Point I. MBCC, an affiliate of the General Partner,
constructed the property for a fixed sum of $8,113,850. Amenities include
clubhouse, swimming pool, tennis court, racquetball court, fitness room and
laundry facilities. At December 31, 1995, 97% of the apartment units were
occupied. The types of units and monthly rentals are described below:
Units Description Size (sq. ft.) 12/31/95 12/31/94 12/31/93
Rental Rental Rental
60 one bedroom 760 $ 540-560 $ 500-520 $ 470-490

25 three bedroom 1,203 750 730 695
202 192,345 127,735 $ 118,650 $ 113,100
The apartment community is managed by Marion Bass Properties, Inc., an affiliate
of the General Partner.
Item 3 - Legal Proceedings.
No material legal proceedings were initiated or terminated during the fiscal
year covered by this report.
Item 4 - Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
No matters were submitted to a vote of the holders of Units during the
fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995.
-5-
Item 5 - Market for Registrant's Units and Related Matters.
Transfer of the Units is subject to certain restrictions contained in the
Limited Partnership Agreement. There is no established market for the Units and
it is not anticipated that any will occur in the future. The Registrant is aware
of no subsequent sales of Units during the past two years. As of December 31,
1995, 585 persons were holders of 9,938 units.
The Registrant intends to make distributions of net cash flow from
operations semi-annually, provided cash reserves are at appropriate levels. A
summary of cash distributions follows:
Total Amount Average
Date Period Distributed(1) Per Unit
2-10-89 7-1-88 through 12-31-88 $ 50,000 $ 4.98

Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
General.
The Registrant was organized on November 14, 1985, to engage in the
acquisition, development, operation, holding and disposition of income-producing
residential and commercial properties. Net proceeds of the offering and General
Partners' contributions aggregating $4,422,912 were available for partnership
operations. On November 7, 1986 the Partnership purchased 23.75 acres of
undeveloped land for $930,002. In 1987 the Registrant contracted with an
affiliate for the construction of a 202 unit apartment community to be known as
Sabal Point I. Construction of the project began in July 1987 and was completed
in August, 1988 with a total cost of $10,087,691. Units were available for lease
beginning June 1988.
Liquidity and Capital Resources.
At December 31, 1995, partners' equity was $1,564,194 or 20% of total
assets and liquid assets amounted to $223,210. The increase in cash of $63,131
was due to a net cash flow from operations of $250,095 less capital replacements
of $37,554, mortgage debt reduction of $49,410 and a distribution to partners of
$100,000. The Registrant had accrued liabilities of $15,720 which consisted of
management fees due to an affiliate of $6,318, trade account payables of $6,889
and tenant prepaid rent of $2,513.
Net cash flow from operations before property additions, payments on
mortgage principal, and distributions to partners totaled $250,095 in 1995,
$80,521 in 1994, and $109,642 in 1993. The Registrant had a 10.125% amortizing
mortgage note in the amount of $6,053,951 outstanding at December 31, 1995.
Principal payments of $49,410, $48,195 and $40,048 were made in 1995, 1994 and
1993, respectively.
In 1995, there was substantial activity in the construction and
planning of new apartment projects in the Charlotte market. Since August of
1995, approximately 1,500 apartment units were completed and available for rent.
At present, approximately 3,000 additional units are under construction. In
certain markets, rental concessions have been given to obtain new tenants. The
Registrant does not believe that these new units and rental concessions will
have a material impact on the Registrant's operations in 1996. The long-range
impact will be influenced by factors that affect the number of persons seeking
to rent apartments, such as the rate of growth in the Charlotte economy and
interest rates and the affordability of home ownership.
-7-
The 1996 operating plan and budget projects cash flow from Registrant
activities (which includes operating, investing, financing) of $260,000. The
projected occupancy rate for 1996 is 95%. As of March 15, 1996, the occupancy
rate was 98%. Capital replacements of $36,000 are budgeted and an additional
$16,000 in Registrant expenses expected. Rents have been increased 5% over rates
charged in 1995 to offset any normal increase in operating expenses. Based upon
these estimates, it is anticipated that cash flow from operations will be
sufficient to meet cash needs and build cash reserves.
Results of Operations.
The results from operations for the year 1995 reflect an increase in
total revenues of $89,915 due to maintaining an average occupancy of 96% and
increasing rents an average of 8%. Rental income was $1,364,926 in 1995 compared
to $1,263,615 in 1994, a difference of $101,311. Other operating income was
$52,088 in 1995 compared to $64,223 in 1994, reflecting a decrease of $12,135
due mainly to leasing fewer corporate units. Operating expenses (excluding
depreciation and amortization) increased $2,734. The increase of $5,327 in fees
and expenses to affiliates was due to management fees based on total revenues
collected and higher reimbursed maintenance personnel costs. Utilities increased
$4,576 due mainly to higher utility rates and resident usage. Repairs and
maintenance increased $6,488 due mainly to painting the exterior of the
apartment complex and costs associated with continued high turnover in 1995.
Other expenses decreased $14,868 due to leasing fewer corporate units.
After interest expense of $615,714 and other nonoperating expenses of
$22,775 the Registrant realized a net loss of $103,659. This is compared to net
losses of $228,393 and $293,290 in 1994 and 1993, respectively. Before
recognizing the expense of depreciation and amortization, the 1995 operating
plan and budget had forecasted a net income of $210,000. This is compared to an
actual net income before depreciation and amortization of $258,076.

Report of Independent Public Accountants
To Bass Real Estate Fund-II:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Bass Real Estate Fund-II (a
North Carolina limited partnership) as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
related statements of operations, changes in partners' equity and cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995. These financial
statements and the schedule referred to below are the responsibility of the
managing general partner (see Note 4). Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and 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 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 the
managing general partner, 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 Bass Real Estate Fund-II as of
December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The schedule listed in Appendix A is
presented for purposes of complying with the Securities and Exchange
Commission's rules and is not a required part of the basic financial statements.
This schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our
audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly states in
all material respects the financial data required to be set forth therein in
relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993
1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Bass Real Estate Fund-II (the Partnership) was organized to engage in the
acquisition, development, operation, holding and disposition of income-producing
residential and commercial properties. Limited partnership interests were sold
at $500 per unit (9,938 units) for a total of $4,969,000.
Under the terms of the partnership agreement, net income (loss) and cash
distributions from operations are to be allocated 99% to the limited partners
and 1% to the general partners. Upon the sale or refinance of the partnership
property, the partnership agreement specifies certain allocations of net
proceeds and taxable gain or loss from the transaction.
Cash Investments
For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Partnership considers all
unrestricted, highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of
three months or less to be cash investments.
Rental Properties
Rental properties are carried at cost, which includes the initial land price as
well as capitalized interest, property taxes and development costs (see Note 2).
Depreciation
The cost of rental properties is depreciated using the straight-line method over
the following estimated useful lives:
Buildings 30 years
Furnishings and fixtures 8 years
Deferred Costs
Expenses incurred in connection with obtaining financing have been capitalized
as deferred costs and are being amortized over the term of the mortgage loan.
Amortization of these costs is included in depreciation and amortization expense
on the accompanying statements of operations.
Income Taxes
Under current income tax laws, income or loss of partnerships is included in the
income tax returns of the partners. Accordingly, no provision has been made for
federal or state income taxes in the accompanying financial statements.
The tax returns of the Partnership are subject to examination by federal and
state taxing authorities. If such examinations occur and result in changes with
respect to the partnership qualification or in changes to partnership income or
loss, the tax liability of the partners would be changed accordingly.
Adjustments are required to reflect the Partnership's accounts on the basis of
accounting utilized for federal income tax reporting purposes. The significant
items giving rise to the adjustments are differing lives and methods of
depreciation and costs incurred in connection with raising of capital
(syndication costs).
The reconciliation of net loss for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and
1993, from a financial reporting basis to a tax basis, are as follows:
1995 1994 1993
Net loss - Financial reporting basis $(103,659) $(228,393) $(293,290)
Book depreciation greater than tax depreciation
2,267 16,885 4,815
Other (739) (7,874) 4,717
--------- -------- --------
Net loss - Tax basis $(102,131) $(219,382) $(283,758)
========== ======== ========
Per Unit Amounts
Net loss per limited partnership unit was determined based on the average number
of units outstanding during each year. The weighted average number of units
outstanding was 9,938 for 1995, 1994 and 1993.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make certain estimates and
assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the period reported. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
New Accounting Pronouncement
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 121
(the Statement) on accounting for the impairment of long-lived assets, certain
identifiable intangibles, and goodwill related to assets to be held and used.
The Statement also establishes accounting standards for long-lived assets and
certain identifiable intangibles to be disposed of. The Company is required to
adopt the Statement in 1996. Based on a preliminary review, the Company does not
expect the adoption of the Statement to have a material effect on its financial
position.
2. Rental Property:
Rental property consists of a residential apartment complex - Sabal Point I. The
complex, which was constructed by an affiliate of the general partners, is
comprised of 202 rental units. The units were available for lease beginning June
1988. The 23.75 acres of land in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, where the
apartment complex is located, were purchased in December 1986 for $930,002
(including closing costs).
Affiliates of the general partners own two adjacent residential apartment
complexes, Sabal Point II and Sabal Point III. The three complexes merged their
management and leasing operations in 1990 and are sharing expenses related to
grounds, maintenance, leasing, management and other related costs. The managing
general partner believes that the allocation of expenses to each partnership has
been made on a reasonable basis.
3. Mortgage Loan Payable:
The mortgage loan payable is a 10-year note due April 1, 1999, with principal
and interest at 10-1/8% payable monthly based upon a 30-year amortization
period. The Sabal Point I complex is pledged as collateral for this mortgage.
Under the mortgage agreement, the Partnership is required to fund certain
reserves for insurance, property tax and capital improvement expenditures. These
reserves are included in other assets on the accompanying balance sheets.
Future principal payments due on the mortgage loan are as follows:
1996 $ 49,883
1997 59,943
1998 66,303
1999 5,877,822
=========
Cash paid for interest was $615,714, $620,453 and $625,075 in 1995, 1994 and
1993, respectively.
4. General Partners and Related-party Transactions:
The general partners of the Partnership are Marion F. Bass and Marion Bass Real
Estate Group, Inc. (the managing general partner). The Partnership's rental
properties are managed by Marion Bass Properties, Inc. Both Marion Bass Real
Estate Group, Inc. and Marion Bass Properties, Inc. are wholly owned by Marion
F. Bass.
Under the terms of the partnership agreement, the general partners or their
affiliates charged certain fees and expenses during 1995, 1994 and 1993 as
follows:
1995 1994 1993
Management fee of 5% of gross revenues $ 70,287 $ 65,640 $ 60,960
Reimbursed maintenance salaries 53,702 50,606 38,519
Reimbursed property manager salaries 44,727 47,543 43,200
Other miscellaneous reimbursements 6,420 6,020 2,040
-------- --------- ---------
$175,136 $169,809 5,877,822
======== ========= =========
The general partners and certain of their affiliates also perform, without cost
to the Partnership, day-to-day investment, management and administration
functions of the Partnership.
5. Subsequent Event - Cash Distribution:
Subsequent to December 31, 1995, the managing general partner declared a cash
distribution of $100,000 ($9.96 per limited partnership unit).
