As of March 31, 1996, interest expense of $626,612 was payable. Interest expense was computed at the American Express Company cost of funds rate plus a spread to cover administrative costs.

BALCOR REALTY INVESTORS 85-SERIES II A REAL ESTATE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (An Illinois Limited Partnership) MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS Balcor Realty Investors 85-Series II (the "Partnership") was formed in 1984 to invest in and operate real property. The Partnership raised $83,936,000 through the sale of Limited Partnership Interests and utilized these proceeds to acquire thirteen real property investments and a minority joint venture interest in one additional real property. The Partnership has since disposed of five of these properties. The Partnership continues to own eight remaining properties and a minority joint venture interest in one property. Inasmuch as the management's discussion and analysis below relates primarily to the time period since the end of the last fiscal year, investors are encouraged to review the financial statements and the management's discussion and analysis contained in the annual report for 1995 for a more complete understanding of the Partnership's financial position. Operations - ---------- Summary of Operations - --------------------- Increased rental income at seven of the eight remaining properties due to higher rental rates resulted in a decrease in the net loss for the Partnership during the quarter ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995. This improvement was partially offset by higher property operating expenses during 1996. Further discussion of the Partnership's operations is summarized below. 1996 Compared to 1995 - --------------------- Discussions of fluctuations between 1996 and 1995 refer to the quarters ended March 31, 1996 and 1995. As a result of higher rental rates at all of the Partnership's properties except Willow Bend Lake Apartments, rental income and property management fees increased for 1996 when compared to 1995. As a result of higher average cash balances, interest income on short-term investments increased for 1996 when compared to 1995. Property operating expense increased during 1996 when compared to 1995 due to higher consulting, utilities, payroll and repair and maintenance expenditures at seven of the Partnership's properties. This increase was partially offset by lower repair and maintenance expenditures at Marbrisa Apartments. Real estate tax expense decreased during 1996 when compared to 1995 as a result of a decrease in the tax rate at the Hunter's Glen Apartments and the receipt of a refund of a portion of a prior year's real estate taxes for the Marbrisa Apartments. Primarily as a result of decreased accounting fees, administrative expenses decreased during 1996 when compared to 1995. Real estate taxes increased at the Rosehill Pointe Apartments due to an increase in the property's assessed value. As a result, participation in income of joint venture with an affiliate decreased during 1996 when compared to 1995. Liquidity and Capital Resources - ------------------------------- The cash position of the Partnership increased by approximately $375,000 as of March 31, 1996 when compared to December 31, 1995. The Partnership generated cash flow totaling approximately $423,000 from its operating activities which primarily represented the operations of its properties, net of administrative expenses and payment of interest on short-term loans from an affiliate. The Partnership's investing activity consisted of a distribution from the joint venture with an affiliate of approximately $19,000. The Partnership's financing activities consisted of principal payments on mortgage notes payable of approximately $108,000 and proceeds from the release of repair escrows of approximately $41,000. The Partnership owes approximately $11,900,000 to the General Partner at March 31, 1996 in connection with the funding of operating deficits and other working capital requirements. These loans are expected to be repaid from available cash flow from future property operations, or from proceeds received from the disposition of the Partnership's real estate investments, prior to any distributions to Limited Partners. Although affiliates of the General Partner have, in certain circumstances, provided mortgage loans for certain properties of the Partnership, there can be no assurance that loans of this type will be available from either affiliates or the General Partner in the future. The General Partner may continue to provide additional short-term loans to the Partnership to fund working capital needs or property operating deficits, although there can be no assurances that such loans will be available. Should additional borrowings be needed and not be available through the General Partner, its affiliates or third parties, the Partnership may be required to dispose of some of its properties in order to satisfy Partnership obligations. The Partnership classifies the cash flow performance of its properties as either positive, a marginal deficit or a significant deficit, each after consideration of debt service payments unless otherwise indicated. A deficit is considered to be significant if it exceeds $250,000 annually or 20% of the property's rental and service income. The Partnership defines cash flow generated from its properties as an amount equal to the property's revenue receipts less property related expenditures, which include debt service payments. During 1996 and 1995, seven of the Partnership's eight remaining properties generated positive cash flow. The Chestnut Ridge - Phase I Apartments generated a marginal deficit during 1996 as compared to positive cash flow during 1995 due to plumbing repairs. The Marbrisa Apartments, which generated positive cash flow during 1996, operated at a marginal deficit in 1995 primarily due to repairs and maintenance required by the terms of the mortgage loan. In addition, the property in which the Partnership holds a minority joint venture interest generated positive cash flow in both 1996 and 1995. As of March 31, 1996, the occupancy rates at the Partnership's properties ranged from 93% to 97%. While the cash flow of certain of the Partnership's properties has improved, the General Partner continues to pursue a number of actions aimed at improving the cash flow of the Partnership's properties including improving operating performance and seeking rent increases where market conditions allow. The General Partner believes that the market for multifamily housing properties has become increasingly favorable to sellers of these properties. The Partnership has entered into negotiations for a contract to sell Park Crossing Apartments and has entered into a contract to sell the Forest Ridge Apartments - - Phase II for a sales price of $11,100,000. Also, the Partnership and the affiliated partnership which own the Rosehill Pointe Apartments through a joint venture have entered into a contract to sell the property for a sales price of $20,700,000. The Partnership is preparing to market one property for sale and is actively marketing five additional properties. If current market conditions remain favorable, and the General Partner can obtain appropriate sales prices, the Partnership's liquidation strategy may be accelerated. The Partnership's properties are owned through the use of third-party and affiliate mortgage loans and therefore, the Partnership is subject to the financial obligations required by such loans. As a result of the General Partner's efforts to obtain loan refinancings, the Partnership has no third party financing which matures prior to 1998. Although investors have received certain tax benefits, the Partnership has not commenced distributions. Future distributions to investors will depend on improved cash flow from the Partnership's remaining properties, the repayment of loans to the General Partner and proceeds from future property sales, as to which there can be no assurances. In light of results to date and current market conditions, the General Partner does not anticipate that investors will recover a substantial portion of their original investment. Inflation has several types of potentially conflicting impacts on real estate investments. Short-term inflation can increase real estate operating costs which may or may not be recovered through increased rents and/or sales prices depending on general or local economic conditions. In the long-term, inflation can be expected to increase operating costs and replacement costs and may lead to increased rental revenues and real estate values.
