The Partnership has retained a portion of the cash from property sales to satisfy obligations of the Partnership as well as establish a reserve for contingencies. Such contingencies may include legal and other fees stemming from litigation involving the Partnership including, but not limited to, the lawsuits discussed in Note 7 of Notes to Financial Statements.

In the event a contingency exists, reserves may be held by the Partnership for a longer period of time. 3.

Property Sales: (a) In January 1997, the Partnership sold the Springs Pointe Village Apartments in an all cash sale for $20,166,667. From the proceeds of the sale, the Partnership paid $10,645,034 to the third party mortgage holder in full satisfaction of the first mortgage loan, and paid $393,011 in selling costs. The basis of the property was $7,171,168 which is net of accumulated depreciation of $6,097,437. For financial statement purposes, the Partnership recognized a gain of $12,602,488 from the sale of this property. (b) In January 1997, the Partnership sold the Walnut Ridge - Phases I and II apartment complexes in an all cash sale for $19,475,000.

Extraordinary Item: During the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Partnership paid prepayment penalties totaling $1,105,366 in connection with the sale of the Eagle Crest - Phase I and Walnut Ridge - Phases I and II apartment complexes and wrote off the remaining unamortized deferred financing fees totaling $231,713 in connection with the sales of the Eagle Crest - Phase I, Springs Pointe Village and Walnut Ridge - Phases I and II apartment complexes. These amounts were recognized as an extraordinary item and classified as debt extinguishment expenses for financial statement purposes. 7. Contingencies: The Partnership is currently involved in two lawsuits whereby the Partnership and certain affiliates have been named as defendants alleging substantially similar claims involving certain federal securities law violations with regard to the adequacy and accuracy of disclosures of information concerning, as well as marketing efforts related to, the offering of the Limited Partnership Interests of the Partnership. The defendants continue to vigorously contest these actions. A plaintiff class has not been certified in either action and, no determinations of the merits have been made. It is not determinable at this time whether or not an unfavorable decision in either action would have a material adverse impact on the financial position, operations and liquidity of the Partnership. The Partnership believes it has meritorious defenses to contest the claims. 8. Subsequent Event: In April 1997, the Partnership made a distribution of $17,262,531 ($230.15 per Interest) to Limited Partners, representing a special distribution of Net Cash Proceeds primarily from proceeds received in connection with the sales of the Eagle Crest - Phase I, Springs Pointe Village and Walnut Ridge - Phases I and II apartment complexes during January 1997. BALCOR REALTY INVESTORS-83 (An Illinois Limited Partnership) MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS Balcor Realty Investors-83 (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership formed in 1981 to invest in and operate income-producing real property. The Partnership raised $75,005,000 from sales of Limited Partnership Interests and utilized these proceeds to acquire eleven real property investments and a minority joint venture interest in one additional real property. The Partnership has since disposed of eleven of these properties, including the property in which the Partnership held a minority joint venture interest. Currently, the Partnership continues to operate the one remaining property, the Deer Oaks Apartments. 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 1996 for a more complete understanding of the Partnership's financial position. Operations - ---------- Summary of Operations - --------------------- During January 1997, the Partnership sold the Eagle Crest - Phase I, Springs Pointe Village and Walnut Ridge - Phases I and II apartment complexes. As a result, the Partnership recognized significant gains for financial statement purposes which were the primary reason for the increase in net income during the quarter ended March 31, 1997 as compared to the same period in 1996. Further discussion of the Partnership's operations is summarized below. 1997 Compared to 1996 - --------------------- Discussions of fluctuations between 1997 and 1996 refer to the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996. The Partnership sold the Eagle Crest - Phase I, Springs Pointe Village and Walnut Ridge - Phases I and II apartment complexes during January 1997, and the Desert Sands and Sandridge - Phase II apartment complexes during the second half of 1996. As a result, rental and service income, interest expense on mortgage notes payable, depreciation, amortization, property operating expenses, real estate taxes and property management fees decreased during 1997 as compared to 1996. Higher average cash balances were available for investment due to proceeds received in connection with the 1997 property sales prior to distribution to Limited Partners in April 1997. This resulted in an increase in interest income on short-term investments during 1997 as compared to 1996. The Partnership reached a settlement with the seller of the Deer Oaks Apartments in 1996 and received $208,250 of settlement income relating primarily to amounts due from the seller under the management and guarantee agreement. For financial statement purposes, the Partnership recognized gains totaling $24,840,098 during 1997 in connection with the four property sales. During 1997, the Partnership wrote off the remaining unamortized deferred financing fees in connection with the sale of the Eagle Crest - Phase I and Walnut Ridge - Phase I and II apartment complexes totaling $231,713, and paid prepayment penalties in connection with the sale of the Eagle Crest - Phase I and Walnut Ridge - Phases I and II apartment complexes totaling $1,105,366. These amounts were recognized as an extraordinary item and classified as debt extinguishment expenses for financial statement purposes. Liquidity and Capital Resources - ------------------------------- The cash position of the Partnership increased by approximately $14,461,000 as of March 31, 1997 when compared to December 31, 1996 primarily due to proceeds received from the sales of the Eagle Crest - Phase I, Springs Pointe Village and Walnut Ridge - Phases I and II apartment complexes in January 1997. The Partnership used cash of approximately $856,000 to fund its operating activities. The cash flow generated by the Partnership's properties, interest income earned on short-term investments and the collection of certain escrow deposits related to sold properties, were offset by the payment of administrative expenses and prepayment penalties. The Partnership received cash of approximately $47,629,000 from its investing activities relating to proceeds received from the 1997 property sales, net of closing costs. The Partnership used cash to fund its financing activities which consisted of a distribution to Limited Partners of approximately $3,075,000, the repayment of the loan payable to The Balcor Company ("TBC"), an affiliate of the General Partner, related to the Walnut Ridge - Phase II Apartments, of approximately $734,000, principal payments on mortgage notes payable of approximately $12,000, and the repayment of mortgage notes payable of approximately $28,491,000. In addition, in April 1997 the Partnership made a special distribution of $17,262,531 to Limited Partners primarily from the proceeds received in connection with the sales of the Eagle Crest - Phase I, Springs Pointe Village and Walnut Ridge - Phases I and II apartment complexes. 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 property is classified as having a significant deficit if the deficit exceeds $250,000 annually or 20% of the property's revenues. 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 1997 and 1996, the Deer Oaks Apartments generated positive cash flow. During 1996 and prior to their sales in 1997, Eagle Crest - Phase I, Springs Pointe Village and Walnut Ridge - Phases I and II apartment complexes generated positive cash flow. The Desert Sands Village and the Sandridge - Phase II apartment complexes were sold in June and November 1996, respectively, and generated positive cash flow prior to their sales in 1996. As of March 31, 1997, the occupancy rate at the Deer Oaks Apartments was 92%. During 1996, the Partnership sold the Desert Sands Village and Sandridge - Phase II apartment complexes. During January 1997, the Partnership sold the Eagle Crest - Phase I, Springs Pointe Village and Walnut Ridge - Phases I and II apartment complexes. The Partnership is actively marketing its remaining property for sale, the Deer Oaks Apartments. The timing of the termination of the Partnership and final distribution of cash will depend upon the nature and extent of liabilities and contingencies which exist or may arise. The Partnership has retained a portion of the cash from property sales to satisfy obligations of the Partnership as well as establish a reserve for contingencies. Such contingencies may include legal and other fees stemming from litigation involving the Partnership including, but not limited to, the lawsuits discussed in Note 7 of Notes to Financial Statements. In the absence of any contingency, the reserves will be paid within twelve months of the last property being sold. In the event a contingency exists, reserves may be held by the Partnership for a longer period of time. In January 1997, the Partnership sold the Springs Pointe Village Apartments in an all cash sale for $20,166,667. From the proceeds of the sale, the Partnership paid $10,645,034 to the third party mortgage holder in full satisfaction of the first mortgage loan and paid $393,011 in selling costs. Pursuant to the terms of the sale, $344,729 of the proceeds was retained by the Partnership until April 1997, at which time the funds were released in full by the Partnership. The remaining proceeds from this sale were distributed to Limited Partners in April 1997. See Note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements for additional information. In January 1997, the Partnership sold the Walnut Ridge - Phases I and II apartment complexes in an all cash sale for $19,475,000. The purchaser received a $300,000 credit against the purchase price for certain repairs at the property. From the proceeds of the sale, the Partnership paid $10,752,114 to the third party mortgage holder in full satisfaction of the first mortgage loans, repaid a $740,792 loan including accrued interest from TBC, an affiliate of the General Partner, and paid $470,165 in selling costs and a prepayment penalty of $430,085. The remaining proceeds from this sale were distributed to Limited Partners in April 1997. See Note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements for additional information. In January 1997, the Partnership sold the Eagle Crest - Phase I Apartments in an all cash sale for $9,508,000. From the proceeds of the sale, the Partnership paid $7,093,430 to the third party mortgage holder in full satisfaction of the first mortgage loan, and paid $357,702 in selling costs and a prepayment penalty of $675,281. The remaining proceeds from this sale were distributed to Limited Partners in April 1997. See Note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements for additional information. The Partnership currently has no third party financing which matures prior to 2002. In April 1997, the Partnership made a distribution of $17,262,531 ($230.15 per Interest) to the holders of Limited Partnership Interests. This amount represents a special distribution of Net Cash Proceeds primarily from proceeds received in connection with the sales of the Eagle Crest - Phase I, Springs Pointe Village and Walnut Ridge - Phases I and II apartment complexes in January 1997. Including the April 1997 distribution, Limited Partners have received distributions of Net Cash Receipts of $105.50 and Net Cash Proceeds of $509.15, totaling $614.65 per $1,000 Interest, as well as certain tax benefits. The Partnership will not issue regular quarterly distributions in the future. However, the Partnership will distribute available proceeds from the sale of the Deer Oaks Apartments. Investors will not recover all 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 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.
