  NOTE 2 - INTRODUCTION TO PROFORMA ADJUSTMENTS (Continued)
  
  In accordance with Article 11, Proforma Financial  Information of Regulation S-X
  of the Securities and Exchange  Commission,  the  accompanying  proforma balance
  sheet was computed assuming that the limited  partnerships  discussed above were
  acquired at the end of the period  presented.  The first  adjustment to cash and
  the adjustment to partners' equity of $5,208,360  reflects the net proceeds from
  December  31,  1998 to May 1,  1999  from  issuance  of 6,401  units of  limited
  partners' capital ($6,401,000 less notes receivable and commissions and offering
  costs of $296,500 and $896,140, respectively.) The second adjustment to cash and
  the adjustment to subscriptions  receivable of $305,201  reflects the collection
  of  subscriptions  receivable  from the above  subscriptions.  The adjustment to
  investment in limited  partnerships and the first adjustment to notes payable to
  limited partnerships of $4,168,282 reflects the Partnership's acquisition of the
  three limited partnership  interests as if the Partnership's date of acquisition
  was  December  31,  1998.  The  second   adjustment  to  investment  in  limited
  partnerships  and  the  third  adjustment  to  cash  of  $427,315  reflects  the
  acquisition  fee from the proceeds raised from December 31, 1998 to May 1, 1999.
  The second  adjustment to notes payable and the adjustment to loan receivable of
  $50,000 reflects the application of the loan receivable to the note payable upon
  acquisition of the limited interest in PRESERVATION.
  
  The four limited  partnerships (six apartment complexes) were under construction
  or rehabilitation during the period presented and had no operations which should
  be reported. The Partnership will use the equity method of accounting to account
  for its investments in these local limited partnerships.

  NOTE 2 - INTRODUCTION TO PROFORMA ADJUSTMENTS (Continued)
  
  In accordance with Article 11, Proforma Financial  Information of Regulation S-X
  of the Securities and Exchange  Commission,  the  accompanying  proforma balance
  sheet was computed assuming that the limited  partnerships  discussed above were
  acquired at the end of the period  presented.  The first  adjustment to cash and
  the adjustment to partners' equity of $5,208,360  reflects the net proceeds from
  December  31,  1998 to May 1,  1999  from  issuance  of 6,401  units of  limited
  partners' capital ($6,401,000 less notes receivable and commissions and offering
  costs of $296,500 and $896,140, respectively.) The second adjustment to cash and
  the adjustment to subscriptions  receivable of $305,201  reflects the collection
  of  subscriptions  receivable  from the above  subscriptions.  The adjustment to
  investment in limited  partnerships and the first adjustment to notes payable to
  limited partnerships of $4,168,282 reflects the Partnership's acquisition of the
  three limited partnership  interests as if the Partnership's date of acquisition
  was  December  31,  1998.  The  second   adjustment  to  investment  in  limited
  partnerships  and  the  third  adjustment  to  cash  of  $427,315  reflects  the
  acquisition  fee from the proceeds raised from December 31, 1998 to May 1, 1999.
  The second  adjustment to notes payable and the adjustment to loan receivable of
  $50,000 reflects the application of the loan receivable to the note payable upon
  acquisition of the limited interest in PRESERVATION.
  
  The four limited  partnerships (six apartment complexes) were under construction
  or rehabilitation during the period presented and had no operations which should
  be reported. The Partnership will use the equity method of accounting to account
  for its investments in these local limited partnerships.
