Item 2.   Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

       On December 10, 1997, the Partnership purchased a 40%
interest  in a newly constructed TGI Friday's restaurant  in
Greensburg, Pennsylvania from Ohio Valley Bistros, Inc.  The
total  cash  purchase  price of the land  and  building  was
approximately $1,650,000.  The remaining interest  is  owned
by  AEI  Real  Estate  Fund  XVII  Limited  Partnership,  an
affiliate of the Partnership.  Ohio Valley Bistros, Inc.  is
not  affiliated  with the Partnership.  The  cash,  used  in
purchasing the property, was from the proceeds of  the  sale
of Limited Partnership Units.

Item 7.  Financial Statements and Exhibits.

          (a)  Financial statements of businesses acquired.  D
               Not    Applicable.     Property    was    newly
               constructed.
          
          (b)  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:
          
               The Partnership commenced operations on May  1,
               1997   when  minimum  subscriptions  of   1,500
               Limited  Partnership  Units  ($1,500,000)  were
               accepted.
          
               Assuming  the  Partnership  had  acquired   the
               property  on  May  1, 1997,  the  Partnership's
               Investments   in   Real   Estate   would   have
               increased  by  $660,000 and its Current  Assets
               (cash)  would  have decreased by  approximately
               $660,000 at September 30, 1997.
          
               The  Total  Income  for the  Partnership  would
               have increased from $49,053 to $77,241 for  the
               period   ended  September  30,  1997   if   the
               Partnership had owned the property  during  the
               period.
          
               Depreciation  Expense would have  increased  by
               $6,596  for  the  period  ended  September  30,
               1997.
          
               The  net  effect of these proforma  adjustments
               would  have  caused Net Loss to  decrease  from
               $(43,468)   to  $(21,592),  which  would   have
               resulted  in  Net Loss of $(8.40)  per  Limited
               Partnership  Unit outstanding  for  the  period
               ended September 30, 1997.
          
          (c)  Exhibits
          
                 Exhibit  10.1 - Net Lease Agreement dated 
                                 December 10, 1997 between
                                 the Partnership, and AEI Real
                                 Estate  Fund  XVII  Limited
                                 Partnership and Ohio  Valley
                                 Bistros, Inc. relating to the
                                 property at 1507, R.R.  #6,
                                 Greensburg, Pennsylvania.
