                                 AMENDMENT NO. 3

         This Amendment No. 3 amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement
on Schedule TO originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
May 30, 2002 (the "Schedule TO") by Equity Resources Lexington Fund Limited
Partnership, a Massachusetts limited partnership, Equity Resources Group, Inc.,
a Massachusetts corporation, and Eggert Dagbjartsson, an individual (together,
the "Purchaser") to purchase 4,383 units (the "Units") of limited partnership
interests in Boston Financial Apartment Associates LP, a Delaware limited
partnership (the "Partnership"), at $25 for each Unit, net to the seller in
cash, without interest, less the $50 transfer fee per transaction charged by the
general partner of the Partnership and less the amount of any distributions
declared or paid from any source by the Partnership with respect to the Units
after May 30, 2002 (without regard to the record date), upon the terms and
subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase (the "Offer to
Purchase") and in the related Agreement of Sale, copies of which are attached
hereto as Exhibits (a)(l) and (a)(3) (which are herein collectively referred to
as the "Offer"). The information in the Offer to Purchase, including all
schedules and annexes thereto, is hereby expressly incorporated herein by
reference in response to all the items of this Statement, except as otherwise
set forth below.

         COVER PAGE AND ITEMS 1, 4 and 12

         The Cover Page and Items 1, 4 and 12 of the Schedule TO, which
incorporate by reference the information contained in the Offer to Purchase, are
hereby amended as follows:

         Cover Page

         The boxed paragraph of the cover page of the Offer to Purchase is
amended in its entirety to read as follows:

                  "THIS OFFER WILL EXPIRE AT 12:00 MIDNIGHT, EASTERN TIME, ON
                   July 16, 2002, UNLESS THE OFFER IS EXTENDED."

         Item 1--Summary Term Sheet

         The sixth question of the Summary Term Sheet is amended in its entirety
to read as follows:

                  "How long do I have to decide whether to tender in the offer?

                  You will have at least until 12:00 midnight, Eastern Time, on
                  July 16, 2002, to decide whether to tender your units in the
                  offer. In addition, if we decide to extend the offering
                  period, as described below, you will have an additional
                  opportunity to tender your units. See "THE OFFER--Section
                  3--Procedures for Tendering Units." Because the Purchaser is
                  offering to purchase less than 100% of all units of the
                  Partnership, there will be no "subsequent offering period.""

         The Summary Term Sheet is amended to read as follows:

                  "How many Units have been tendered as of the Offer's Extension
                  Date?

                  Approximately 375 Units have been tender under the Offer at
                  the time of the extension.""

         Item 4--Terms of the Transaction

         The Offer



         The first paragraph of Section 1--"Terms of the Offer" is amended in
its entirety to read as follows:

                  "Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer,
                  the Purchaser will accept for payment and pay for up to 4,383
                  Units that are validly tendered on or prior to the Expiration
                  Date (as defined below). The term "Expiration Date" means
                  12:00 midnight, Eastern Time, on July 16, 2002, unless the
                  Purchaser extends the period of time for which the Offer is
                  open, in which event the term "Expiration Date" shall mean the
                  latest date on which the Offer, as so extended by the
                  Purchaser, shall expire."

         Item 12--Exhibits

         The following is added as an Exhibit to the Schedule TO:
