At June 30, 2014, the aggregate market value of the registrant's securities held by non-affiliates of the registrant was $112,995,808 based on the closing price of the registrant's traded securities on the NYSE MKT Exchange on such date. For this computation, the Registrant has excluded the market value of all Depositary Receipts reported as beneficially owned by executive officers and directors of the General Partner of the Registrant; such exclusion shall not be deemed to constitute an admission that any such person is an affiliate of the Registrant.

Effective January 3, 2012, the Partnership authorized a 3-for-1 forward split of its Depositary Receipts listed on the NYSE MKT and a concurrent adjustment of the exchange ratio of Depositary Receipts for Class A Units of the Partnership from 10-to-1 to 30-to-1, such that each Depositary Receipt represents one-thirtieth (¹/30) of a Class A Unit of the Partnership.

All references to Depositary Receipts in the report are reflective of the 3- for-1 forward split.

As of March 1, 2015, there were 101,475 of the registrant's Class A units (3,044,257 Depositary Receipts) of limited partnership issued and outstanding and 24,254 Class B units issued and outstanding.

New England Realty Associates Limited Partnership ("NERA" or the "Partnership"), a Massachusetts Limited Partnership, was formed on August 12, 1977 as the successor to five real estate limited partnerships (collectively, the "Colonial Partnerships"), which filed for protection under Chapter XII of the Federal Bankruptcy Act in September 1974. The bankruptcy proceedings were terminated in late 1984. In July 2004, the General Partner extended the termination date of the Partnership until 2057, as allowed in the Partnership Agreement.

The authorized capital of the Partnership is represented by three classes of partnership units ("Units"). There are two categories of limited partnership interests ("Class A Units" and "Class B Units") and one category of general partnership interests (the "General Partnership Units"). The Class A Units were initially issued to creditors and limited partners of the Colonial Partnerships and have been registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Each Class A Unit is exchangeable for 30 publicly traded depositary receipts ("Receipts"), which are currently listed on the NYSE Amex Exchange and are registered under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act. The Class B Units were issued to the original general partners of the Partnership. The General Partnership Units are held by the current general partner of the Partnership, NewReal, Inc. (the "General Partner"). The Class A Units represent an 80% ownership interest, the Class B Units represent a 19% ownership interest, and the General Partnership Units represent a 1% ownership interest.

The Partnership is engaged in the business of acquiring, developing, holding for investment, operating and selling real estate. The Partnership, directly or through 24 subsidiary limited partnerships or limited liability companies, owns and operates various residential apartment buildings, condominium units and commercial properties located in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. As used herein, the Partnership's subsidiary limited partnerships and limited liabilities companies are each referred to as a "Subsidiary Partnership" and are collectively referred to as the "Subsidiary Partnerships."

The Partnership owns between a 99.67% and 100% interest in each of the Subsidiary Partnerships, except in nine limited liability companies (the "Investment Properties" or "Joint Ventures") in which the Partnership has between a 40% and 50% ownership interest. The majority shareholder of the General Partner indirectly owns between 43.2% and 57%, the President of Hamilton owns between 2.5% and 4.5%, and five other management employees of Hamilton own collectively between 0% and 2.3%, respectively. The Partnership's interest in the Investment Properties is accounted for on the equity method in the Consolidated Financial Statements. See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—"Principles of Consolidation." See Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—"Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures" for a description of the properties and their operations. Of those Subsidiary Partnerships not wholly owned by the Partnership, except for the Investment Properties, the remaining ownership interest is held by an unaffiliated third party. In each such case, the third party has entered into an agreement with the Partnership, pursuant to which any benefit derived from its ownership interest in the applicable Subsidiary Partnerships will be returned to the Partnership.

The long-term goals of the Partnership are to manage, rent and improve its properties and to acquire additional properties with income and capital appreciation potential as suitable opportunities arise. When appropriate, the Partnership may sell or refinance selected properties. Proceeds from any such sales or refinancing will be used to reduce debt, reinvested in acquisitions of other properties, distributed to the partners, repurchase equity interests, or used for operating expenses or reserves, as determined by the General Partner.

The Partnership is managed by the General Partner, NewReal, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation wholly owned by Harold Brown and Ronald Brown. The General Partner has engaged The Hamilton Company, Inc. (the "Hamilton Company" or "Hamilton") to perform general management functions for the Partnership's properties in exchange for management fees. The Hamilton Company is wholly owned by Harold Brown and employs Ronald Brown and Harold Brown. The Partnership, Subsidiary Partnerships, and the Investment Properties currently contract with the management company for 51 individuals at the Properties and 16 individuals at the Joint Ventures who are primarily involved in the supervision and maintenance of specific properties. The General Partner has no employees.

As of February 1, 2015, the Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships owned 2,412 residential apartment units in 20 residential and mixed-use complexes (collectively, the "Apartment Complexes"). The Partnership also owns 19 condominium units in a residential condominium complex, all of which are leased to residential tenants (collectively referred to as the "Condominium Units"). The Apartment Complexes, the Condominium Units and the Investment Properties are located primarily in the metropolitan Boston area of Massachusetts.

As of February 1, 2015, the Subsidiary Partnerships also owned a commercial shopping center in Framingham, Massachusetts, one commercial building in Newton and one in Brookline, Massachusetts and commercial space in mixed- use buildings in Boston, Brockton and Newton, Massachusetts. These properties are referred to collectively as the "Commercial Properties." See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, included as a part of this Form 10-K.

Additionally, as of February 1, 2015, the Partnership owned a 40-50% interest in 9 residential and mixed use complexes, the Investment Properties, with a total of 790 residential units, one commercial unit, and a 50 car parking lot. See Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on these investments.

The Apartment Complexes, Investment Properties, Condominium Units and Commercial Properties are referred to collectively as the "Properties."

Harold Brown and, in certain cases, Ronald Brown, and officers and employees of the Hamilton Company own or have owned interests in certain of the Properties, Subsidiary Partnerships and Joint Ventures. See "Item 13. Certain Relationships, Related Transactions and Director Independence."

The leasing of real estate in the metropolitan Boston area of Massachusetts is highly competitive. The Apartment Complexes, Condominium Units and the Investment Properties must compete for tenants with other residential apartments and condominium units in the areas in which they are located. The Commercial Properties must compete for commercial tenants with other shopping malls and office buildings in the areas in which they are located. Thus, the level of competition at each Property depends on how many other similarly situated properties are in its vicinity. See "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Factors that May Affect Future Results."

The Second Amended and Restated Contract of Limited Partnership of the Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement") authorizes the General Partner to acquire real estate and real estate related investments from or in participation with either or both of Harold Brown and Ronald Brown, or their affiliates, upon the satisfaction of certain terms and conditions, including the approval of the Partnership's Advisory Committee and limitations on the price paid by the Partnership for such investments. The Partnership Agreement also permits the Partnership's limited partners and the General Partner to make loans to the Partnership, subject to certain limitations on the rate of interest that may be charged to the Partnership. Except for the foregoing, the Partnership does not have any policies prohibiting any limited partner, General Partner or any other person from having any direct or indirect pecuniary interest in any investment to be acquired or disposed of by the Partnership or in any

transaction to which the Partnership is a party or has an interest in or from engaging, for their own account, in business activities of the types conducted or to be conducted by the Partnership. The General Partner is not limited in the number or amount of mortgages which may be placed on any Property, nor is there a policy limiting the percentage of Partnership assets which may be invested in any specific Property.

The Partnership operates in only one industry segment—real estate. The Partnership does not have any foreign operations, and its business is not seasonal. See the Consolidated Financial Statements attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein for financial information relating to our industry segment.

In February 2015, the Partnership approved a quarterly distribution of $7.50 per Unit ($0.25 per Receipt), payable on March 31, 2015. In 2014 the Partnership paid four quarterly distributions of an aggregate $30.00 per Unit ($1.00 per Receipt) for a total payment of $3,858,386 in 2014. In 2013, the Partnership paid four quarterly distributions of an aggregate of $30.00 per Unit ($1.00 per Receipt) for a total payment of $3,893,662.

On August 20, 2007, NewReal, Inc., the General Partner authorized an equity repurchase program ("Repurchase Program") under which the Partnership was permitted to purchase, over a period of twelve months, up to 300,000 Depositary Receipts (each of which is one-tenth of a Class A Unit). On January 15, 2008, the General Partner authorized an increase in the Repurchase Program from 300,000 to 600,000 Depositary Receipts. On January 30, 2008 the General Partner authorized an increase in the Repurchase Program from 600,000 to 900,000 Depositary Receipts. On March 6, 2008, the General Partner authorized the increase in the total number of Depositary Receipts that could be repurchased pursuant to the Repurchase Program from 900,000 to 1,500,000. On August 8, 2008, the General Partner reauthorized and renewed the Repurchase Program for an additional 12-month period ended August 19, 2009. On March 22, 2010, the General Partner re-authorized and renewed the Repurchase Program that expired on August 19, 2009. Under the terms of the renewed Repurchase Program, the Partnership may purchase up to 1,500,000 Depositary Receipts from the start of the program in 2007 through March 31, 2015. On March 10, 2015, the General Partner authorized an increase in the Repurchase Program from 1,500,000 to 2,000,000 Depository Receipts and extended the Program for an additional five years from March 31, 2015 until March 31, 2020. The Repurchase Program requires the Partnership to repurchase a proportionate number of Class B Units and General Partner Units in connection with any repurchases of any Depositary Receipts by the Partnership based upon the 80%, 19% and 1% fixed distribution percentages of the holders of the Class A, Class B and General Partner Units under the Partnership's Second Amended and Restate Contract of Limited Partnership. Repurchases of Depositary Receipts or Partnership Units pursuant to the Repurchase Program may be made by the Partnership from time to time in its sole discretion in open market transactions or in privately negotiated transactions. From August 20, 2007 through December 31, 2014, the Partnership has repurchased 1,286,916 Depositary Receipts at an average price of $25.65 per receipt (or $769.50 per underlying Class A Unit), 2,452 Class B Units and 129 General Partnership Units, both at an average price of $769.53 per Unit, totaling approximately $35,167,000 including brokerage fees paid by the Partnership.

In May 2013 the Partnership sold the Nashoba Apartments located in Acton, Massachusetts. The sale price was $4,300,000; the net proceeds of approximately $2,100,000 were transferred to Investment Property Exchange Services, Inc. a Qualified Intermediary. These funds were held by the intermediary in order to maintain the Partnership's ability to structure a tax free exchange in accordance with the Internal Revenue Service's rules under Sec. 1031. The gain on the sale in accordance with GAAP is approximately $3,679,000. The proceeds were subsequently used in the acquisition of the Hamilton Green apartments described below.

On July 15, 2013, Hamilton Green Apartments, LLC, a newly formed subsidiary of the Partnership, purchased Windsor Green at Andover, a 193 unit apartment complex located at 311 and 319 Lowell Street, Andover, Massachusetts. The purchase price was $62,500,000. From the purchase price, the Partnership has allocated approximately $1,656,000 to the value of the in-place leases and approximately $96,000 to the value of the tenant relationships. These amounts are being amortized over 12 and 36 months respectively. To fund this purchase, the Partnership obtained short term financing of approximately $40,000,000, used the funds of approximately $2,100,000 from the like kind exchange of the Nashoba Apartments, and the balance from the Partnership's cash reserves. The closing costs associated with this short term financing were approximately $38,000. The original mortgage matured in November 2013. On December 20, 2013, the Partnership refinanced the mortgage on Hamilton Green. The new mortgage is $38,500,000; interest is fixed at 4.67% for 15 years, interest only for 2 years and is amortized on a 30 year schedule for the balance of the term. This refinancing required an additional $1,846,000 in capital from the Partnership. The closing costs associated with this refinancing were approximately $346,000.

During 2014, the Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships completed improvements to certain of the Properties at a total cost of approximately $5,605,000. These improvements were funded from cash reserves and, to some extent, escrow accounts established in connection with the financing or refinancing of the applicable Properties. These sources have been adequate to fully fund improvements. The most significant improvements were made at Redwood Hills, Westgate Apartments, Hamilton Oaks, 9 School Street, 62 Boylston Street and Hamilton Green at a cost of approximately $733,000, $570,000, $527,000, $484,000, $465,000 and $428,000 respectively. The Partnership plans to invest approximately $3,935,000 in capital improvements in 2015.

On July 31, 2014, the Partnership entered into an agreement for a $25,000,000 revolving line of credit. The term of the line is three years with a floating interest rate equal to a base rate of the greater of (a) the Prime Rate (b) the Federal Funds Rate plus one-half of one percent per annum, or (c) the LIBOR Rate for a period of one month plus 1% per annum, plus an applicable margin of 2.5% to 3.5%. The costs associated with the line of credit were approximately $141,000. As of December 31, 2014, no funds have been drawn on this credit line.

The line of credit may be used for acquisition, refinancing, improvements, working capital and other needs of the Partnership. The line may not be used to pay dividends, make distributions or acquire equity interests of the Partnership.

The Advisory Committee members are Gregory Dube, Robert Nahigian, and Edward Sarkesian. These Advisory Committee members are not affiliated with the General Partner. The Advisory Committee meets with the General Partner to review the progress of the Partnership, assist the General Partner with policy formation, review the appropriateness, timing and amount of proposed distributions, approve or reject proposed acquisitions and investments with affiliates, and advise the

General Partner on various other Partnership affairs. Per the Partnership Agreement, the Advisory Committee has no binding power except that it must approve certain investments and acquisitions or sales by the Partnership from or with affiliates of the Partnership.

These forms are made available as soon as reasonably practical after the Partnership electronically files or furnishes such materials to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Any shareholder may obtain copies of these documents, free of charge, by sending a request in writing to: Director of Investor Relations, New England Realty Associates Limited Partnership, 39 Brighton Avenue, Allston, MA 02134.

We are subject to certain risks and uncertainties as described below. These risks and uncertainties may not be the only ones we face; there may be additional risks that we do not presently know of or that we currently consider immaterial. All of these risks could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Our ability to pay distributions on, and the market price of, our equity securities may be adversely affected if any of such risks are realized. All investors should consider the following risk factors before deciding to purchase or sell securities of the Partnership.

We are subject to risks inherent in the ownership of real estate. We own and manage multifamily apartment complexes and commercial properties that are subject to varying degrees of risk generally incident to the ownership of real estate. Our financial condition, the value of our properties and our ability to make distributions to our shareholders will be dependent upon our ability to operate our properties in a manner sufficient to generate income in excess of operating expenses and debt service charges, which may be affected by the following risks, some of which are discussed in more detail below:

We are dependent on rental income from our multifamily apartment complexes and commercial properties. If we are unable to attract and retain tenants or if our tenants are unable to pay their rental obligations, our financial condition and funds available for distribution to our shareholders will be adversely affected.

Our multifamily apartment complexes and commercial properties are subject to competition. Our properties and joint venture investments are located in developed areas that include other properties. The properties also compete with other rental alternatives, such as condominiums, single and multifamily rental homes, owner occupied single and multifamily homes, and commercial properties in attracting tenants. This competition may affect our ability to attract and retain residents and to increase or maintain rental rates.

The properties we own are concentrated in Eastern Massachusetts and Southern New Hampshire. Our performance, therefore, is linked to economic conditions and the market for available rental housing and commercial space in these states. A decline in the market for apartment housing and/or commercial properties may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and ability to make distributions to our shareholders.

Our insurance may not be adequate to cover certain risks. There are certain types of risks, generally of a catastrophic nature, such as earthquakes, floods, windstorms, act of war and terrorist attacks that may be uninsurable, or are not economically insurable, or are not fully covered by insurance. Moreover, certain risks, such as mold and environmental exposures, generally are not covered by our insurance. Should an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occur, we could lose our equity in the affected property as well as the anticipated future cash flow from that property. Any such loss could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Debt financing could adversely affect our performance. The vast majority of our assets are encumbered by project specific, non-recourse, non- cross-collateralized mortgage debt. There is a risk that these properties will not have sufficient cash flow from operations for payments of required principal and interest. We may not be able to refinance these loans at an amount equal to the loan balance and the terms of any refinancing may not be as favorable as the terms of existing indebtedness. If we are unable to make required payments on indebtedness that is secured by a mortgage, the Partnership will either invest additional money in the property or the property securing the mortgage may be foreclosed with a consequent loss of income and value to us.

We are obligated to comply with financial covenants in our indebtedness that could restrict our range of operating activities: The mortgages on our properties contain customary negative covenants, including

limitations on our ability, without prior consent of the lender and other items. Failure to comply with these covenants could cause a default under the agreements and, in certain circumstances; our lenders may be entitled to accelerate our debt obligations. Defaults under our debt agreements could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Real estate investments are generally illiquid, and we may not be able to sell our properties when it is economically or strategically advantageous to do so. Real estate investments generally cannot be sold quickly, and our ability to sell properties may be affected by market conditions. We may not be able to diversify or vary our portfolio promptly in accordance with our strategies or in response to economic or other conditions.

Our access to public debt markets is limited. Substantially all of our debt financings are secured by mortgages on our properties because of our limited access to public debt markets.

Litigation may result in unfavorable outcomes. Like many real estate operators, we may be involved in lawsuits involving premises liability claims, housing discrimination claims and alleged violations of landlord-tenant laws, which may give rise to class action litigation or governmental investigations. Any material litigation not covered by insurance, such as a class action, could result in substantial costs being incurred. The Partnership does not carry directors and officer's liability insurance.

Our financial results may be adversely impacted if we are unable to sell properties and employ the proceeds in accordance with our strategic plan. Our ability to pay down debt, reduce our interest costs, repurchase Depositary Receipts and acquire properties is dependent upon our ability to sell the properties we have selected for disposition at the prices and within the deadlines we have established for each respective property.

The costs of complying with laws and regulations could adversely affect our cash flow and ability to make distributions to our shareholders. Our properties must comply with Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (the "ADA") to the extent that they are "public accommodations" or "commercial facilities" as defined in the ADA. The ADA does not consider apartment complexes to be public accommodations or commercial facilities, except for portions of such properties that are open to the public. In addition, the Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988 (the "FHAA") requires apartment complexes first occupied after March 13, 1990, to be accessible to the handicapped. Other laws also require apartment communities to be handicap accessible. Noncompliance with these laws could result in the imposition of fines or an award of damages to private litigants. We may be subject to lawsuits alleging violations of handicap design laws in connection with certain of our developments. If compliance with these laws involves substantial expenditures or must be made on an accelerated basis, our ability to make distributions to our shareholders could be adversely affected.

Under various federal, state and local laws, an owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in the property. This liability may be imposed without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of the substances. Other law imposes on owners and operators certain requirements regarding conditions and activities that may affect human health or the environment. Failure to comply with applicable requirements could complicate our ability to lease or sell an affected property and could subject us to monetary penalties, costs required to achieve compliance and potential liability to third parties. We are not aware of any material noncompliance, liability or claim relating to hazardous or toxic substances or other environmental matters in connection with any of our properties. Nonetheless, it is possible that material environmental contamination or conditions exist, or could arise in the future, in the apartment communities or on the land upon which they are located.

We are subject to the risks associated with investments through joint ventures. Nine of our properties are owned by joint ventures in which we do not have a direct controlling interest. We may enter into

joint ventures, including joint ventures that we do not control, in the future. Any joint venture investment involves risks such as the possibility that the co-venturer may seek relief under federal or state insolvency laws, or have economic or business interests or goals that are inconsistent with our business interests or goals. While the bankruptcy or insolvency of our co-venturer generally should not disrupt the operations of the joint venture, we could be forced to purchase the co-venturer's interest in the joint venture or the interest could be sold to a third party. We also may guarantee the indebtedness of our joint ventures. If we do not have control over a joint venture, the value of our investment may be affected adversely by a third party that may have different goals and capabilities than ours.

We are subject to risks associated with development, acquisition and expansion of multifamily apartment complexes and commercial properties. Development projects and acquisitions and expansions of apartment complexes are subject to a number of risks, including:

We are subject to control by our directors and officers. The directors and executive officers of the General Partner and members of their families and related entities owned approximately 34% of our depositary receipts as of December 31, 2014. Additionally, management decisions rest with our General Partner without limited partner approval.

Competition for skilled personnel could increase our labor costs. We and our management company compete with various other companies in attracting and retaining qualified and skilled personnel who are responsible for the day- to-day operations of our properties. Competitive pressures may require that we enhance our pay and benefits package to compete effectively for such personnel. We may not be able to offset such added costs by increasing the rates we charge our tenants. If there is an increase in these costs or if we fail to attract and retain qualified and skilled personnel, our business and operating results could be harmed.

We depend on our key personnel. Our success depends to a significant degree upon the continued contribution of key members of the management company, who may be difficult to replace. The loss of services of these executives could have a material adverse effect on us. There can be no assurance that the services of such personnel will continue to be available to us. We do not hold key-man life insurance on any of our key personnel.

Changes in market conditions could adversely affect the market price of our Depositary Receipts. As with other publicly traded equity securities, the value of our depositary receipts depends on various market conditions, which may change from time to time. Among the market conditions that may affect the value of our depositary receipts are the following:

The market value of our depositary is based primarily upon the market's perception of our growth potential and our current and potential future earnings and cash distributions. Consequently, our depositary receipts may trade at prices that are higher or lower than our net asset value per depositary receipt.

We face possible risks associated with the physical effects of climate change. We cannot predict with the certainty whether climate change is occurring and, if so at what rate. However, the physical effects of climate change could have a material effect on our properties, operations, and business. To the extent climate change causes changes in weather patterns, our markets could experience increases in storm intensity and rising sea levels. Over time, these conditions could result in declining demand for our buildings or the inability of us to operate the buildings at all. Climate change may also have indirect effects on our business by increasing the cost of (or making unavailable) property insurance on terms we find acceptable, increasing the cost of energy and increasing the cost of snow removal at our properties. Proposed federal legislation to address climate change could increase utility and other costs of operating our properties which, if not offset by rising rental income, would reduce our net income. There can be no assurance that climate change will not have a material adverse effect on our properties, operations or business.

Security breaches and other disruptions could compromise our information and expose us to liability, which would cause our business and reputation to suffer In the ordinary course of our business, we collect and store sensitive data, including intellectual property, our proprietary business information and that of our tenants and business partners, including personally identifiable information of our tenants and employees, in our data centers and on our networks. Despite our security measures, our information technology and infrastructure may be vulnerable to attacks by hackers or breached due to employee error, malfeasance or other disruptions. Any such breach could compromise our networks and the information stored there could be accessed, publicly disclosed, lost or stolen. Any such access, disclosure or other loss of information could result in legal claims or proceedings, liability under laws that protect the privacy of personal information, disrupt our operations, and damage our reputation, which could adversely affect our business.

Risk of changes in the tax law applicable to real estate partnerships. Since the Internal Revenue Service, the United States Treasury Department and Congress frequently review federal income legislation, we cannot predict whether, when or to what extent new federal tax laws, regulations, interpretations or rulings will be adopted. Any such legislative action may prospectively or retroactively modify our tax treatment and therefore, may adversely affect taxation to us, and/or our partners.

The Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships own the Apartment Complexes, the Condominium Units, the Commercial Properties and a 40-50% interest in nine Investment Properties.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Certain information contained herein includes forward looking statements, which are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Liquidation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act"). Forward looking statements in this report, or which management may make orally or in written form from time to time, reflect management's good faith belief when those statements are made, and are based on information currently available to management. Caution should be exercised in interpreting and relying on such forward looking statements, the realization of which may be impacted by known and unknown risks and uncertainties, events that may occur subsequent to the forward looking statements, and other factors which may be beyond the Partnership's control and which can materially affect the Partnership's actual results, performance or achievements for 2015 and beyond. Should one or more of the risks or uncertainties mentioned below materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to update our forward looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on past forward looking statements, which are based on results and trends at the time they are made, to anticipate future results or trends.

Along with risks detailed in Item 1A and from time to time in the Partnership's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, some factors that could cause the Partnership's actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward looking statements include but are not limited to the following:

The foregoing factors should not be construed as exhaustive or as an admission regarding the adequacy of disclosures made by the Partnership prior to the date hereof or the effectiveness of said Act. The Partnership expressly disclaims any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Since the Partnership's long-term goals include the acquisition of additional properties, a portion of the proceeds from the refinancing and sale of properties is reserved for this purpose. If available acquisitions do not meet the Partnership's investment criteria, the Partnership may purchase additional depositary receipts. The Partnership will consider refinancing existing properties if the Partnership's cash reserves are insufficient to repay existing mortgages or if the Partnership needs additional funds for future acquisitions.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Partnership's Core Portfolio and Joint Ventures experienced high occupancy and revenue gains as anticipated. The year ended with a 5.8% increase in same store rental income and an occupancy rate of greater than 98%. Despite the addition of many housing units in the Boston Seaport District and Greater Boston in general, the portfolio has not yet experienced downward pressure on rental rates. Management continues to position the entire portfolio, suburban and urban, in order to remain in a competitive position by improving both the interior and exterior condition of the properties. For 2014, core operations demonstrated an 11.1% increase in revenues, a 16.5% increase in operating expenses and a 2.1% decrease in Net Operating Income, ("NOI"—income less operating expenses excluding depreciation) largely due to the acquisition of Hamilton Green at Andover. However, same store revenue increases were 5.8%, operating expenses increased 5.5% resulting in a 6.3% increase in Net Operating Income . Based on current occupancy and contractual rents in place for the next 9-12 months, Management maintains its forecast of similar annual revenue growth for same store rents for the better part of 2015. Management anticipates both the urban and suburban portfolio's occupancy level to be on par with last year's occupancy levels for the upcoming three quarters. Although we experienced mild weather in the 4^th quarter resulting in lower utility usage and snow removal costs as compared with 2013, Management forecasts higher expenses in the 1^st quarter of 2015 as compared to the 1^st quarter 2014 as a result of the record low temperatures and snow fall totals experienced in the Boston area. However, Management does anticipate stable insurance, leasing, real estate tax and bad debt expenses in 2015. Combined, the Partnership will likely outperform 2014 and the distributions to partners are expected to be tax advantaged for 2015.

In February 2014, the Partnership paid off the mortgages on Linewt in the amount of approximately $1,466,000 and Linhart in the amount of approximately $1,926,000. There were no prepayment penalties. The Partnership's cash reserves were used to pay off these mortgages.

On June 11, 2014, the Partnership refinanced the property owned by NERA Dean Street Associates, LLC. The new mortgage is $5,687,000; the interest rate is 4.22%, interest only payable in 10 years. Approximately $5,077,000 of the loan proceeds were used to pay off the existing mortgage. The mortgage matures in June 2024. The costs associated with the refinancing were approximately $89,000.

On July 11, 2014, the Partnership refinanced the property owned by Westgate Apartments Burlington, LLC. The new mortgage is $2,500,000; the interest rate is 4.31%; interest only, payable in 10 years. Approximately $2,010,000 of loan proceeds were used to pay off the existing mortgage. The mortgage matures in August, 2024. The costs associated with the refinancing were approximately $75,000.

The line of credit is collateralized by varying percentages of the Partnership's ownership interest in 23 of its subsidiary properties and joint ventures. Pledged interests range from 49% to 100% of the Partnership's ownership interest in the respective entities.

The Partnership paid fees to secure the line of credit. Any unused balance of the line of credit is subject to a fee ranging from 15 to 20 basis points per annum. The Partnership paid approximately $12,000 during the year ended December 31, 2014.

The line of credit agreement contains several covenants including, but not limited to, providing cash flow projections and compliance certificates, as well as other financial information. Additional covenants include certain restrictions on additional encumbrances of Partnership assets, limitations on debt, maintenance of leverage ratios, minimum tangible net worth, limitations on total aggregate indebtedness, minimum ratio of net operating income to total indebtedness debt service, disposition of properties, and other items.

For 2014, Management has used existing cash reserves to purchase 44,025 Depository Receipts for a cost of $2,158,332. The Board of Advisors and Board of Directors have unanimously approved an extension of the Repurchase Program from 2015 to 2020 and increased the depositary receipt buy-back allocation from 1.5 million to 2 million receipts. Management believes that the $25m line of credit, net cash flow from operations and cash on hand put the Partnership in position to capitalize on investment opportunities should they reveal themselves in the near future. Management will continue to repurchase shares per its trading plan. As always, Management continues to weigh investment alternatives of stock repurchase, new property acquisitions and dispositions when considering its cash balances and performance of the portfolio.

The Stock Repurchase Program that was initiated in 2007 has purchased 1,306,331 Depositary Receipts through March 10, 2015 representing 31% of the outstanding class A Depositary Receipts. The Partnership has retained The Hamilton Company ("Hamilton") to manage and administer the Partnership's and Joint Ventures' Properties. Hamilton is a full-service real estate management company, which has legal, construction, maintenance, architectural, accounting and administrative departments. The Partnership's properties represent approximately 36% of the total properties and 42% of the residential properties managed by Hamilton. Substantially all of the other properties managed by Hamilton are owned, wholly or partially, directly or indirectly, by Harold Brown. The Partnership's Second Amended and Restated Contract of Limited Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement") expressly provides that the general partner may employ a management company to manage the properties, and that such management company may be paid a fee of up to 4% of rental receipts for administrative and management services (the "Management Fee"). The Partnership pays Hamilton the full annual Management Fee, in monthly installments.

At March 10, 2015, Harold Brown, his brother Ronald Brown and the President of Hamilton, Carl Valeri, collectively own approximately 41% of the Depositary Receipts representing the Partnership Class A Units (including Depositary Receipts held by trusts for the benefit of such persons' family members). Harold Brown also controls 75% of the Partnership's Class B Units, 75% of the capital

stock of NewReal, Inc. ("NewReal"), the Partnership's sole general partner, and all of the outstanding stock of Hamilton. Ronald Brown also owns 25% of the Partnership's Class B Units and 25% of NewReal's capital stock. In addition, Ronald Brown is the President and director of NewReal and Harold Brown is NewReal's Treasurer and a director. The 75% of the issued and outstanding Class B units of the Partnership, controlled by Harold Brown, are owned by HBC Holdings LLC, an entity of which he is the manager.

In addition to the Management Fee, the Partnership Agreement further provides for the employment of outside professionals to provide services to the Partnership and allows NewReal to charge the Partnership for the cost of employing professionals to assist with the administration of the Partnership's properties. Additionally, from time to time, the Partnership pays Hamilton for repairs and maintenance services, legal services, construction services and accounting services. The costs charged by Hamilton for these services are at the same hourly rate charged to all entities managed by Hamilton, and management believes such rates are competitive in the marketplace.

Residential tenants sign a one year lease. In 2014, tenant renewals were approximately 64% with an average rental increase of approximately 3.6%, new leases accounted for approximately 36% with rental rate increases of approximately 6.7%. In 2014, leasing commissions were approximately $236,000 compared to approximately $109,000 in 2013, an increase of approximately $127,000 (116.5%) from 2013. Tenant concessions were approximately $51,000 in 2014 compared to approximately $51,000 in 2013. Tenant improvements were approximately $3,198,000 in 2014, compared to approximately $2,205,000 in 2013, an increase of approximately $993,000 (45.0%).

Hamilton accounted for approximately 5.6% of the repair and maintenance expense paid for by the Partnership in the year ended December 31, 2014 and 5.1% in the year ended December 31, 2013. Of the funds paid to Hamilton for this purpose, the great majority was to cover the cost of services provided by the Hamilton maintenance department, including plumbing, electrical, carpentry services, and snow removal for those properties close to Hamilton's headquarters. Several of the larger Partnership properties have their own maintenance staff. Those properties that do not have their own maintenance staff and are located more than a reasonable distance from Hamilton's headquarters in Allston, Massachusetts are generally serviced by local, independent companies.

Hamilton's legal department handles most of the Partnership's eviction and collection matters. Additionally, it prepares most long-term commercial lease agreements and represents the Partnership in selected purchase and sale transactions. Overall, Hamilton provided approximately 72.4% and 76.3% of the legal services paid for by the Partnership during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Additionally, as described in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, The Hamilton Company receives similar fees from the Investment Properties.

The Partnership requires that three bids be obtained for construction contracts in excess of $15,000. Hamilton may be one of the three bidders on a particular project and may be awarded the contract if its bid and its ability to successfully complete the project are deemed appropriate. For contracts that are not awarded to Hamilton, Hamilton charges the Partnership a construction supervision fee equal to 5% of the contract amount. Hamilton's architectural department also provides services to the Partnership on an as-needed basis. In 2014, Hamilton provided the Partnership approximately $151,000 in construction and architectural services, compared to $627,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Prior to 1991, the Partnership employed an outside, unaffiliated company to perform its bookkeeping and accounting functions. Since that time, such services have been provided by Hamilton's accounting staff, which consists of approximately 14 people. In 2014, Hamilton charged the Partnership

$125,000 per year ($31,250 per quarter) for bookkeeping and accounting services. For more information on related party transactions, see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires the Partnership to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. The Partnership regularly and continually evaluates its estimates, including those related to acquiring, developing and assessing the carrying values of its real estate properties and its investments in and advances to joint ventures. The Partnership bases its estimates on historical experience, current market conditions, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. The Partnership's critical accounting policies are those which require assumptions to be made about such matters that are highly uncertain. Different estimates could have a material effect on the Partnership's financial results. Judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of these policies and estimates may result in materially different amounts being reported under different conditions and circumstances. See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, Principles of Consolidation.

Revenue Recognition: Rental income from residential and commercial properties is recognized over the term of the related lease. For residential tenants, amounts 60 days in arrears are charged against income. The commercial tenants are evaluated on a case by case basis. Certain leases of the commercial properties provide for increasing stepped minimum rents, which are accounted for on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Concessions made on residential leases are also accounted for on the straight-line basis.

Discontinued Operations and Rental Property Held for Sale: In April 2014, the FASB issued guidance related to the reporting of discontinued operation and disclosures of disposals of components of an entity. This guidance defines a discontinued operation as a component or group of components disposed or classified as held for sale and represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and final result; the guidance states that a strategic shift could include a disposal of a major geographical area of operations, a major line of business, a major equity method investment or other major parts of an entity. The guidance also provides for additional disclosure requirements in connection with both discontinued operations and other dispositions not qualifying as discontinued operations. The guidance will be effective for all companies for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014. The guidance applies prospectively to new disposals and new classifications of disposal groups as held for sale after the effective date. All entities may early adopt the guidance for new disposals (or new classifications as held for sale) that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued or available for issuance. The Partnership has elected to early adopt this standard effective with the interim period beginning January 1, 2014. Prior to January 1, 2014, properties identified as held for sale and/or disposed of were presented in discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Rental Properties: Rental properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; improvements and additions are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost of the asset and related accumulated depreciation is eliminated from the accounts, and any gain or loss on such disposition is included in income. Fully depreciated assets are removed from the accounts. Rental properties are depreciated by both straight-line and accelerated methods over their estimated useful lives. Upon acquisition of rental property, the Partnership estimates the fair value of acquired tangible assets, consisting of land,

building and improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities assumed, generally consisting of the fair value of (i) above and below market leases, (ii) in-place leases and (iii) tenant relationships. The Partnership allocated the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values. The Partnership records goodwill or a gain on bargain purchase (if any) if the net assets acquired/liabilities assumed exceed the purchase consideration of a transaction. In estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired, the Partnership considers information obtained about each property as a result of its due diligence and marketing and leasing activities, and utilizes various valuation methods, such as estimated cash flow projections utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates, estimates of replacement costs net of depreciation, and available market information. The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it were vacant.

Intangible assets acquired include amounts for in-place lease values above and below market leases and tenant relationship values, which are based on management's evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant's lease and the Partnership's overall relationship with the respective tenant. Factors to be considered by management in its analysis of in-place lease values include an estimate of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, depending on local market conditions. In estimating costs to execute similar leases, management considers leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses. Characteristics considered by management in valuing tenant relationships include the nature and extent of the Partnership's existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant's credit quality and expectations of lease renewals. The value of in-place leases are amortized to expense over the remaining initial terms of the respective leases. The value of tenant relationship intangibles are amortized to expense over the anticipated life of the relationships.

In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a rental property may be impaired, an analysis of the value is prepared. The estimated future undiscounted cash flows are compared to the asset's carrying value to determine if a write-down to fair value is required.

Impairment: On an annual basis management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the Partnership's rental properties may be impaired. A property's value is impaired only if management's estimate of the aggregate future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) to be generated by the property is less than the carrying value of the property. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss shall be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the property over the fair value of the property. The Partnership's estimates of aggregate future cash flows expected to be generated by each property are based on a number of assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, among others, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and costs to operate each property. As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management's assumptions, the future cash flows estimated by management in its impairment analyses may not be achieved. The Partnership has not recognized an impairment loss for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012.

Investments in Joint Ventures: The Partnership accounts for its 40%-50% ownership in the Investment Properties under the equity method of accounting, as it exercises significant influence over, but does not control these entities. These investments are recorded initially at cost, as Investments in Joint Ventures, and subsequently adjusted for the Partnership's share in earnings, cash contributions and distributions. Under the equity method of accounting, our net equity is reflected on the consolidated balance sheets, and our share of net income or loss from the Partnership is included on the consolidated statements of income. Generally, the Partnership would discontinue applying the equity method when the investment (and any advances) is reduced to zero and would not provide for additional losses unless the Partnership has guaranteed obligations of the venture or is otherwise committed to providing further financial support for the investee. If the venture subsequently generates income, the Partnership only recognizes its share of such income to the extent it exceeds its share of previously unrecognized losses.

With respect to investments in and advances to the Investment Properties, the Partnership looks to the underlying properties to assess performance and the recoverability of carrying amounts for those investments in a manner similar to direct investments in real estate properties. An impairment charge is recorded if management's estimate of the aggregate future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) to be generated by the property is less than the carrying value of the property.

Legal Proceedings: The Partnership is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise, from time to time, in the ordinary course of business. These matters are frequently covered by insurance. If it is determined that a loss is likely to occur, the estimated amount of the loss is recorded in the financial statements. Both the amount of the loss and the point at which its occurrence is considered likely can be difficult to determine.

The Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships earned income before interest expense, loss from investments in unconsolidated joint ventures and other income and loss of approximately $10,903,000 during the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to approximately $11,131,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013, a decrease of approximately $228,000.

Rental income from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2014 was approximately $42,206,000, compared to approximately $37,962,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013, an increase of approximately $4,244,000 (11.2%). The two main factors which can be attributed to this increase are as follows; rental income in 2014 at Hamilton Green is for twelve months versus rental income for only six months in 2013, resulting in an increase of approximately $2,156,000 and rental rate increases of approximately 4.8% in 2014. The Partnership Properties with the most significant increases in rental income, excluding Hamilton Green, include 62 Boylston Street, 1144 Commonwealth Street, Westgate Apartments, Hamilton Cypress, Hamilton Oaks and 9 School Street with increases of approximately $343,000, $327,000, $200,000, $183,000, $175,000 and $133,000 respectively. Included in rental income is contingent rentals collected on commercial properties. Contingent rentals include such charges as bill backs of common area maintenance charges, real estate taxes, and utility charges.

Operating expenses from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2014 were approximately $31,730,000 compared to approximately $27,233,000 for the year ended December 31,

2013, an increase of approximately $4,497,000 (16.5%). The most significant factor contributing to this increase was the 12 months of operating expenses for Hamilton Green in 2014 versus 6 months of operating expenses in 2013, an increase of approximately $3,168,000. Excluding Hamilton Green, factors which contributed to the increase in operating expenses were an increase in repairs and maintenance expenses of approximately $395,000 (7.1%) due to repairs at the properties to maintain occupancy; an increase in operating expenses of approximately $271,000 (6.6%) due to increases in utility costs; an increase in taxes and insurance of approximately $221,000 (4.7%) due to increases in real estate taxes and insurance premiums; an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of approximately $167,000 (2.8%) due to capital improvements; and an increase in renting expense of approximately $151,000 (81.2%) due to an increase in the use of outside rental agents to rent apartments.

Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2014 was approximately $9,553,000 compared to approximately $8,013,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013, an increase of approximately $1,540,000 (19.2%). This increase is primarily due to interest paid on the mortgage for Hamilton Green for twelve months versus six months of interest in 2013.

At December 31, 2014, the Partnership has between a 40% and 50% ownership interests in nine different Investment Properties. See a description of these properties included in the section titled Investment Properties as well as Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a detail of the financial information of each Investment Property.

As described in Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Partnership's share of the net loss from the Investment Properties was approximately $325,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to a net loss of approximately $1,167,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013, a decrease in the loss of approximately $842,000 (72.2%). This decrease in loss is consistent with the continued strength in the rental real estate market including an approximate 5.5% increase in revenue. Included in the loss for the year ended December 31, 2014 is depreciation and amortization expense of approximately $3,516,000. The allocable loss for the year ended December 31, 2014 associated with the October 2009 investment in Dexter Park is approximately $468,000 of which approximately $2,162,000 is depreciation and amortization.

Interest income for the year ended December 31, 2014 was approximately $800 compared to approximately $1,100 for the year ended December 31, 2013, a decrease of approximately $300.

In May 2013 the Partnership sold the Nashoba Apartments located in Acton, Massachusetts. The gain on the sale was approximately $3,679,000 and is included in income from discontinued operations.

As a result of the changes discussed above, net income for the year ended December 31, 2014 was approximately $1,025,000 compared to income of approximately $5,655,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013, a decrease in income of approximately $4,630,000.

The Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships earned income before interest expense, loss from investments in unconsolidated joint ventures and other income and loss of approximately $11,131,000 during the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to approximately $12,780,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012, a decrease of approximately $1,649,000 (12.9%).

Rental income from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2013 was approximately $37,962,000, compared to approximately $34,784,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of approximately $3,177,000 (9.1%). The factors which can be attributed to this increase are as follows: the acquisition of the Hamilton Green Apartments in July 2013 resulted in an increase in rental income of approximately $1,877,000 and rental rates increased approximately 4.0% in 2013. The Partnership Properties with the most significant increases in rental income include 62 Boylston Street, School Street, 1144 Commonwealth Avenue, Westgate Woburn, Redwood Hills, Westside Colonial and Hamilton Oaks with increases of approximately $300,000, $193,000, $180,000, $154,000, $94,000, $93,000 and $92,000, respectively. Included in rental income is contingent rentals collected on commercial properties. Contingent rentals include such charges as bill backs of common area maintenance charges, real estate taxes, and utility charges.

Operating expenses from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2013 were approximately $27,233,000 compared to approximately $22,389,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of approximately $4,844,000 (21.6%). The most significant factors contributing to this

increase were an increase in repairs and maintenance expenses of approximately $740,000 (14.6%) due to ongoing repairs to properties in an effort to maintain occupancy; an increase in operating expenses of approximately $621,000 (17.3%) due to significant snow removal and heating costs due to a very harsh winter; an increase in taxes and insurance of approximately $649,000 (15.1%) due to an increase in real estate taxes; an increase in depreciation and amortization expenses of approximately $2,365,000 (39.3%) due to approximately $1,535,000 of depreciation and approximately $774,000 of amortization of in- place leases from the acquisition of Hamilton Green as well as capital improvements to Partnership properties; and an increase in administrative expenses of approximately $303,000 (16.7%) due to the expensing of the professional fees in connection with the abandoned refinancing. The total operating expenses increased by $4,844,000, of which approximately $3,083,000 is attributable to the acquisition of Hamilton Green.

Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2013 was approximately $8,013,000 compared to approximately $7,695,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of approximately $318,000 (4.1%). This increase is due to the refinancing of four properties in 2013 and the acquisition of Hamilton Green which resulted in a higher level of debt in 2013 compared to 2012.

At December 31, 2013, the Partnership has between a 40% and 50% ownership interests in nine different Investment Properties. See a description of these properties included in the section titled Investment Properties as well as Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a detail of the financial information of each Investment Property.

As described in Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Partnership's share of the net loss from the Investment Properties was approximately $1,167,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to approximately $1,487,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012, a decrease in the loss of approximately $321,000 (21.6%). This decrease in loss is consistent with the continued strength in the rental real estate market including approximately 5.4% increase in revenue. Included in the loss for the year ended December 31, 2013 is depreciation and amortization expense of approximately $3,692,000. The allocable loss for the year ended December 31, 2013 associated with the October 2009 investment in Dexter Park is approximately $844,000 of which approximately $2,311,000 is depreciation and amortization.

Interest income for the year ended December 31, 2013 was approximately $1,100 compared to approximately $2,200 for the year ended December 31, 2012, a decrease of approximately $1,100. This decrease is due to a drop in interest rates.

In May 2013 the Partnership sold the Nashoba Apartments located in Acton, Massachusetts. The sale price was $4,300,000; the net proceeds of approximately $2,100,000 were transferred to Investment Property Exchange Services, Inc. a Qualified Intermediary. These funds were held by the intermediary in order to maintain the Partnership's ability to structure a tax free exchange in accordance with the Internal Revenue Service's rules under Sec. 1031. The gain on the sale in accordance with GAAP is approximately $3,679,000 and is included in income from discontinued operations. The proceeds were subsequently used in the acquisition of the Hamilton Green Apartments.

As a result of the changes discussed above, net income for the year ended December 31, 2013 was approximately $5,655,000 compared to income of approximately $3,634,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of approximately $2,018,000 (55.5%). The increase in net income is primarily due to the gain on the sale of Nashoba Apartments.

The Partnership's principal source of cash during 2014 and 2013 was the collection of rents and proceeds on the sale and refinancing of real estate. The majority of cash and cash equivalents of $14,015,898 at December 31, 2014 and $14,013,380 at December 31, 2013 were held in interest bearing accounts at creditworthy financial institutions.

The cash provided by operating activities is primarily due to the collection of rents less cash operating expenses. The decrease in cash used in investing activities is primarily due to the Partnership not making any new property acquisitions in 2014. The decrease in cash used in financing activities is due to principal payments on mortgages of approximately $3,558,000, partially offset by the refinancing of the mortgages on two of the Partnership properties for approximately an additional $1,110,000. In 2014, the Partnership purchased a total of 44,025 Class A Depositary Receipts, 349 Class B Units and 18 General Partnership Units for a total cost of $2,685,583.

During 2014, the Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships completed improvements to certain of the Properties at a total cost of approximately $5,605,000. These improvements were funded from cash reserves and, to some extent, escrow accounts established in connection with the financing or refinancing of the applicable Properties. These sources have been adequate to fully fund improvements. The most significant improvements were made at Redwood Hills Apartments, Westgate Apartments, Hamilton Oaks, 9 School Street, 62 Boylston Street and Hamilton Green at a cost of approximately $733,000, $570,000, $527,000, $484,000, $465,000 and $428,000 respectively. The Partnership plans to invest approximately $3,935,000 in capital improvements in 2015.

During 2014, the Partnership refinanced two properties. After paying off the existing mortgages, the net cash received from these refinancing was approximately $1,110,000. In 2014, the Partnership paid off the mortgages on Linewt and Linhart for approximately $3,392,000.

On July 15, 2013, the Partnership, purchased Windsor Green at Andover, a 193 unit apartment complex located in Andover, Massachusetts. The purchase price was $62,500,000. To fund this purchase, the Partnership obtained short term financing of approximately $40,000,000, used the funds of approximately $2,100,000 from the sale of the Nashoba Apartments, and the balance from the Partnership's cash reserves. The original mortgage matured in November 2013. On December 20, 2013, the Partnership refinanced the mortgage on Hamilton Green. The new mortgage is $38,500,000, interest is fixed at 4.67% for 15 years, interest only for 2 years and the mortgage is amortized over 30 years. This refinancing required additional capital of approximately $1,846,000 from the Partnership.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Partnership received distributions of approximately $3,344,000 from the investment properties of which $890,000 was from Dexter Park and $1,253,000 was from Hamilton on Main, primarily due to the refinancing.

In 2014 the Partnership paid four quarterly distributions of $7.50 per Unit ($0.25 per receipt) for a total payment of $3,858,386 in 2014. In 2013, the Partnership paid four quarterly distributions of an aggregate of $7.50 per Unit ($0.25 per receipt) for a total payment of $3,893,662 in 2013. In 2015, the Partnership approved a quarterly distribution of $7.50 per Unit ($0.25 per Receipt) payable on March 31, 2015.

On July 31, 2014, the Partnership entered into an agreement for a $25,000,000 revolving line of credit. The term of the line is three years with a floating interest rate equal to a base rate of the

greater of (a) the Prime Rate (b) the Federal Funds Rate plus one-half of one percent per annum, or (c) the LIBOR Rate for a period of one month plus 1% per annum, plus an applicable margin of 2.5% to 3.5%. The costs associated with the line of credit were approximately $141,000. As of December 31, 2014, no funds have been drawn on this credit line.

The Partnership anticipates that cash from operations and interest bearing accounts will be sufficient to fund its current operations; pay distributions, make required debt payments and to finance current improvements to its properties. The Partnership may also sell or refinance properties. The Partnership's net income and cash flow may fluctuate dramatically from year to year as a result of the sale or refinancing of properties, increases or decreases in rental income or expenses, or the loss of significant tenants.

As of December 31, 2014, the Partnership had a 40%-50% ownership interest in nine Joint Ventures, all of which have mortgage indebtedness except Hamilton Bay Sales. We do not have control of these partnerships and therefore we account for them using the equity method of consolidation. At December 31, 2014, our proportionate share of the non-recourse debt related to these investments was approximately $60,331,000. See Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

See Notes 5 and 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of mortgage notes payable. The Partnership has no other material contractual obligations to be disclosed.

A Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates and equity prices. In pursuing its business plan, the primary market risk to which the Partnership is exposed is interest rate risk. Changes in the general level of interest rates prevailing in the financial markets may affect the spread between the Partnership's yield on invested assets and cost of funds and, in turn, its ability to make distributions or payments to its investors.

As of December 31, 2014, the Partnership, its Subsidiary Partnerships and the Investment Properties collectively have approximately $333,982,000 in long-term debt, substantially all of which pay interest at fixed rates. Accordingly, the fair value of these debt instruments is affected by changes in market interest rates. These mortgages mature through 2029. For information regarding the fair value and maturity dates of these debt obligations, see Item 2. Properties and Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—"Mortgage Notes Payable," Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—"Fair Value Measurements" and Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—"Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures."

For additional disclosure about market risk, see "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Factors That May Affect Future Results".

The financial statements of the Partnership appear on pages F-1 through F-37 of this Form 10-K and are indexed herein under Item 15(a)(1).

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We have evaluated the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures to determine whether they are effective in ensuring that the disclosure of required information is timely made in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act") and the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. This evaluation was made under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") of our General Partner as of the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K. The CEO and CFO have concluded, based on their reviews, that our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e), are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15-15(f) under the Exchange Act. We assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in "Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013)". Based on that assessment and those criteria, our management, with the participation of the CEO and CFO of the General Partner concluded that our internal control over financial reporting is effective as of December 31, 2014.

We believe that because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The effectiveness of the Partnership's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014 has been audited by Miller Wachman LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears herein.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2014 that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Our General Partner, New Real, Inc. is a Massachusetts corporation wholly owned by Harold Brown and Ronald Brown, who are brothers. Harold Brown and Ronald Brown were individual general partners of the Partnership until May 1984, when NewReal, Inc. replaced them as the sole General Partner of the Partnership. The General Partner is responsible for making all decisions and taking all action deemed by it necessary or appropriate to conduct the business of the Partnership.

The General Partner engages The Hamilton Company, Inc. to manage the properties of the Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships. The Hamilton Company, Inc. is wholly owned by Harold Brown. See "Item 11. Executive Compensation" for information concerning fees paid by the Partnership to The Hamilton Company during 2014.

Because the General Partner has engaged The Hamilton Company as the manager for the Properties, the General Partner has no employees.

The directors of the General Partner are Ronald Brown, Harold Brown, Guilliaem Aertsen, David Aloise, and Eunice Harps. The directors of the General Partner hold office until their successors are duly elected and qualified.

Ronald Brown and Harold Brown hold all of the executive officer positions of the General Partner. The executive officers of the General Partner serve at the pleasure of the Board of Directors.

On June 14, 2001, the Board of Directors of the General Partner created an Audit Committee, in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act, consisting of three members, and approved the charter of the Audit Committee. As of July 1, 2014, the Audit Committee consisted of Guilliaem Aertsen, David Aloise, and Eunice Harps.

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Partnership's directors, executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Partnership's equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission reports of ownership changes and changes in ownership of the Partnership. Officers, directors and greater-than-10% shareholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Partnership with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely upon a review of Forms 3 and 4 furnished to the company under Rule 16a-3(e) of the Securities Exchange Act during its most recent fiscal year, Forms 5 furnished to the company with respect to its most recent fiscal year and any written representations received by the company from persons required to file such forms, the following persons—either officers, directors or beneficial owners of more than ten percent of any class of equity of the company registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act—failed to file on a timely basis reports required by Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act during the most recent fiscal year:

The Partnership, its General Partner and Hamilton, the Partnership's management company, have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which constitutes a "Code of Ethics" as defined by the SEC and applies to executive officers as well as to all other employees. A copy of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is available in the "NERA" section of the management company's website at www.thehamiltoncompany.com. To the extent required by the rules of the SEC, the Partnership and its related entities will disclose amendments to and waivers from the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics in the same place on the aforementioned website.

The Audit Committee of NewReal Inc. (NewReal), which is the General Partner of New England Realty Associates Limited Partnership ("NERA" or the "Partnership"), is currently comprised of Guilliaem Aertsen, IV, David Aloise, and Eunice Harps, each of whom is an independent director of NewReal. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter.

The Partnership's management, which consists of NERA's General Partner, is responsible for the preparation of the Partnership's financial statements and for maintaining an adequate system of internal controls and processes for that purpose. Miller Wachman LLP ("Miller Wachman") acts as the Partnership's independent auditor and is responsible for conducting an independent audit of the Partnership's annual financial statements and the effectiveness of the Partnership's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014 in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), and issuing a report on the results of their audit. The Audit Committee is responsible for providing independent, objective oversight of both of these processes.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 with management of the Partnership and with representatives of Miller Wachman. As a result of these discussions, the Audit Committee believes that NERA maintains an effective system of accounting controls that allow it to prepare financial statements that fairly present the Partnership's financial position and results of its operations. Discussions with Miller Wachman also included the matters required by Statement on Auditing Standard No. 16 (Communications with Audit Committee).

In addition, the Audit Committee reviewed the independence of Miller Wachman. We received written disclosures and a letter from Miller Wachman regarding its independence as required by Independent Standards Board Standards No. 1 and discussed this information with Miller Wachman.

Based on the foregoing, the Audit Committee has recommended that the audited financial statements of the Partnership for the year ended December 31, 2014 be included in the Partnership's annual report on form 10-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Partnership does not have "Executive Compensation." As more fully described below, the Partnership employs a management company to which it pays management fees and administrative fees.

The Partnership is not required to and did not pay any compensation to its officers or the officers and directors of the General Partner in 2014. As more fully described below, the Partnership employs a management company which is solely responsible for performing all management and policy making functions for the Partnership. The only compensation paid by the Partnership to any person or entity is in the form of management fees and administrative fees paid to the General Partner, or any management entity employed by the General Partner, in accordance with the Partnership Agreement.

Specifically, the Partnership Agreement provides that the General Partner, or any management entity employed by the General Partner, is entitled to a management fee equal to 4% (2% at Dexter Park and 3% at Linewt) of the rental and other operating income from the Partnership Properties and a mortgage servicing fee equal to 0.5% of the unpaid principal balance of any debt instruments received, held and serviced by the Partnership (the "Management Fee"). The Partnership Agreement also authorizes the General Partner to charge to the Partnership its cost for employing professionals to assist with the

administration of the Partnership Properties (the "Administrative Fees"). The Administrative Fee is not charged against the Management Fee. In addition, upon the sale or disposition of any Partnership Properties, the General Partner, or any management entity which is the effective cause of such sale, is entitled to a commission equal to 3% of the gross sale price (the "Commission"), provided that should any other broker be entitled to a commission in connection with the sale, the commission shall be the difference between 3% of the gross sale price and the amount to be paid to such broker.

The General Partner has engaged The Hamilton Company ("Hamilton") to operate and manage the Partnership, and in accordance with the Partnership Agreement, the Management Fee, the Administrative Fees and the Commission are paid to Hamilton. See "Item 10. Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant." The total Management Fee paid to Hamilton during 2014 was approximately $1,745,000. The management services provided by Hamilton include but are not limited to: collecting rents and other income; approving, ordering and supervising all repairs and other decorations; terminating leases, evicting tenants, purchasing supplies and equipment, financing and refinancing properties, settling insurance claims, maintaining administrative offices and employing personnel. In addition, the Partnership engages the president of Hamilton as a consultant to provide asset management services to the Partnership, for which the Partnership paid $75,000 in 2014. The Partnership does not have a written agreement with this individual.

In 2014, the Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships paid administrative fees to Hamilton of approximately $925,000 inclusive of construction supervision and architectural fees of approximately $151,000, rental commissions of approximately $56,000, repairs and maintenance service fees of approximately $368,000, legal fees of approximately $225,000 and $125,000 for accounting services. The administrative fees included $24,000 that was paid by the Partnership to Ronald Brown for construction supervision services.

Additionally, the Hamilton Company received approximately $955,000 from the 40-50% owned Investment Properties of which approximately $652,000 was the management fee, approximately $14,000 was for construction supervision and architectural fees, approximately $80,000 was for maintenance services, $42,000 for legal services, rental commissions of approximately $16,000 and $151,000 for construction costs. The Advisory Committee held six meetings during 2014, and a total of $30,000 was paid for attendance and participation in such meetings. Additionally, the Audit Committee held four meetings in 2014 and a total of $11,000 was paid for attendance and participation in such meetings.

The Board of Directors of our General Partner does not have a compensation committee. No member of the Board of Directors of the General Partner was at any time in 2014 or at any other time an officer or employee of the General Partner, and no member had any relationship with the Partnership requiring disclosure as a related-person transaction under Item 404 of Regulation S-K. No officer of the General Partner has served on the board of directors or compensation committee of any other entity that has or has had one or more executive officers who served as a member of the Board of Directors of the General Partner at any time in 2014.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

As of March 1, 2015, except as listed below, the General Partner was not aware of any beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding Class A Units or the Depositary Receipts, other than Computershare, which, under the Deposit Agreement, as Depositary, is the record holder of the Class A Units exchanged for Depositary Receipts. As of March 1, 2015, pursuant to the Deposit Agreement, Computershare was serving as the record holder of the Class A Units with respect to which 2,947,962 Depositary Receipts had been issued to approximately 1,724 holders.

(1): As of December 31, 2014, 507,849 Depositary Receipts are held of record by the HBC Holdings, LLC (HBC). Harold Brown is the sole manager of HBC with sole voting and dispositive control over the Depositary Receipts. Accordingly, Mr. Brown may be deemed to beneficially own the Depositary Receipts held by HBC. Because a Depositary Receipt represents beneficial ownership of one-thirtieth of a Class A Unit, Harold Brown may be deemed to beneficially own approximately 16,928 Class A Units (approximately 16.58% of the outstanding Class A Units).
(2): As of December 31, 2014, Harold Brown directly owns 167,600 Depositary Receipts beneficially owned by his spouse. Because a Depositary Receipt represents beneficial ownership of one-thirtieth of a Class A Unit, Harold Brown may be deemed to directly beneficially own approximately 5,587 Class A Units (approximately 5.47% of the outstanding Class A Units).
(3): Consists of Class B Units held by HBC Holdings, LLC. See Note (1) above. Harold Brown, as Manager, has voting and investment power over the Class B Units held by the LLC, subject to the provisions of the LLC, and thus may be deemed to beneficially own the 18,191 Class B Units held by the LLC.
(4): Since Harold Brown and Ronald Brown are the controlling stockholders, executive officers and directors of NewReal, Inc., they may be deemed to beneficially own all 1,276 of the General Partnership Units held of record by NewReal, Inc.
(5): Consists of 87,860 Depositary Receipts held of record jointly by Ronald Brown and his wife. Because a Depositary Receipt represents beneficial ownership of one-thirtieth of a Class A Unit, Ronald Brown may be deemed to beneficially own approximately 2,929 Class A Units.
(6): Consists of the Class A Units described in Notes (1), (2) and (4) above, plus New Real, Inc. and Ronald Brown, as indicated in the table.
(7): Includes the Class B Units described in Note (2) above.
(8): Consists of 197,935 Depositary Receipts held by Carl Valeri and his immediate family members. Because a Depositary Receipt represents beneficial ownership of one thirtieth of a Class A Unit, Carl Valeri may be deemed to beneficially own approximately 6,598 Class A Units.
(9): Consists of 282,500 Depositary Receipts held by the Harold Brown 2009 Irrevocable Trust. Harold Brown is not a beneficiary of the Trust and he does not have a pecuniary interest. Because a Depositary Receipt represents beneficial ownership of one thirtieth of a Class A Unit, the Trust may be deemed to beneficially own approximately 9,417 Class A Units

On November 13, 2000, the Partnership adopted a Policy for Establishment of Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans. Pursuant to this Policy, the Partnership authorized its officers, directors and certain employees, shareholders and affiliates who are deemed "insiders" of the Partnership to adopt individual plans for trading the Partnership's securities ("Trading Plans"), and established certain procedural requirements relating to the establishment, modification and termination of such Trading Plans. On May 14, 2001, the Partnership approved a Trading Plan of Harold Brown, providing for the purchase of up to 60,000 Depositary Receipts of the Partnership as such become available during the period from May 14, 2001 through May 13, 2002. Mr. Brown amended and restated this Trading Plan on November 19, 2001 to increase the number of Depositary Receipts which were to be purchased pursuant thereto from 60,000 to 150,000, expanding the date through which purchases could be made to September 30, 2002, and to provide that purchases under his Trading Plan were to be made only if the price per Depositary Receipt was $15.00 or less. On November 7, 2007, Mr. Brown amended and restated the Trading Plan expanding the date through which Depositary Receipts may be purchased through September 30, 2009 for up to

150,000 Depositary Receipts at prices up to $33.33 each. On November 4, 2009, Mr. Brown amended and restated the Trading Plan expanding the date through which Depositary Receipts may be purchase through September 30, 2012 for up to 150,000 Depositary Receipts at price up to $28.33 each. On November 14, 2012, Mr. Brown amended and restated the Trading Plan extending the date through which Depositary Receipts may be purchased through September 30, 2016 for up to 600,000 Depositary Receipts at prices up to $45.00.

The Partnership does not have any securities authorized for issuance pursuant to any equity compensation plans.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

There are no other family relationships among any of our directors. Messrs. Aertsen, Aloise and Ms. Harps representing a majority of our directors are determined to be independent under the rules of the NYSE Amex Exchange and the SEC. The board holds regularly scheduled meetings.

The Partnership's written policy with respect to the review and approval of related party transactions is governed by the Partnership Agreement which assigns the Advisory Committee with the responsibility to approve or reject all proposed acquisitions and investments with or from the General Partner or an Affiliate. Related Parties are identified by the Officers of the management company and material transactions are reported to and reviewed by the Audit Committee on a quarterly basis.

The Partnership invested approximately $34,049,000 in nine limited liability companies formed to acquire Investment Properties. The Partnership has a 40%- 50% ownership interest in each of these limited liability companies accounted for on the equity method of consolidation. The majority stockholder of the General Partner owns between 43.2% and 57% and the President and five employees of the management company own between 0% and 6.8% in each of the Investment Properties. See Note 14 of the consolidated financial statements for a description of the Investment Properties.

See also "Item 2. Properties," "Item 10. Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant" and "Item 11. Executive Compensation" for information regarding the fees paid to The Hamilton Company, an affiliate of the General Partner.

Miller Wachman LLP served as the Partnership's independent accountants for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 and has reported on the 2014 Consolidated Financial Statements. Aggregate fees rendered to Miller Wachman LLP for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were as follows:

The Audit Committee's charter provides that it has the sole authority to review in advance and grant any pre-approvals of (i) all auditing services to be provided by the independent auditor, (ii) all significant non-audit services to be provided by the independent auditors as permitted by Section 10A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and (iii) all fees and the terms of engagement with respect to such services. All audit and non-audit services performed by Miller Wachman during fiscal 2014 and 2013 were pre-approved pursuant to the procedures outlined above.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of New England Realty Associates Limited Partnership ("the Partnership") as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in partners' capital and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2014. We also have audited New England Realty Associates Limited Partnership's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Partnership's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and an opinion on the Partnership's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of New England Realty Associates Limited Partnership as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2014, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, New England Realty Associates Limited Partnership maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

NEW ENGLAND REALTY ASSOCIATES LIMITED PARTNERSHIP AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2014

Line of Business: New England Realty Associates Limited Partnership ("NERA" or the "Partnership") was organized in Massachusetts in 1977. NERA and its subsidiaries own 24 properties which include 16 residential buildings; 4 mixed use residential, retail and office buildings; 3 commercial buildings and individual units at one condominium complex. These properties total 2,412 apartment units, 19 condominium units and 108,043 square feet of commercial space. Additionally, the Partnership also owns a 40-50% interest in 9 residential and mixed use properties consisting of 790 apartment units, 12,500 square feet of commercial space and a 50 car parking lot. The properties are located in Eastern Massachusetts and Southern New Hampshire.

Basis of Presentation: The preparation of the financial statements, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United State of America, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NERA and its subsidiaries. NERA has a 99.67% to 100% ownership interest in each subsidiary except for the nine limited liability companies (the "Investment Properties" or "Joint Ventures") in which the Partnership has a 40 - 50% ownership interest. The consolidated group is referred to as the "Partnership." Minority interests are not recorded, since they are insignificant. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. The Partnership accounts for its investment in the above-mentioned Investment Properties using the equity method of consolidation. (See Note 14: Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures).

The Partnership accounts for its investments in joint ventures using the equity method of accounting. These investments are recorded initially at cost, as Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures, and subsequently adjusted for equity in earnings and cash contributions and distributions. Generally, the Partnership would discontinue applying the equity method when the investment (and any advances) is reduced to zero and would not provide for additional losses unless the Partnership has guaranteed obligations of the venture or is otherwise committed to providing further financial support for the investee. If the venture subsequently generates income, the Partnership only recognizes its share of such income to the extent it exceeds its share of previously unrecognized losses. In 2013, the carrying value of an investment fell below zero. We intend to fund our share of the investments' future operating deficits should the need arise. However, we have no legal obligation to pay for any of the liabilities of such investments nor do we have any legal obligation to fund operating deficits. (See Note 14: Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures.)

The authoritative guidance on consolidation provides guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights ("variable interest entities" or "VIEs") and the determination of which business enterprise, if any, should consolidate the VIE (the "primary beneficiary"). Generally, the consideration of whether an entity is a VIE applies when either (1) the equity investors (if any) lack one or more of the essential characteristics of a controlling financial interest, (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that equity's activities without additional subordinated financial support or (3) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests and the activities of the entity involve or are conducted

on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest. The primary beneficiary is defined by the entity having both of the following characteristics: (1) the power to direct the activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the variable interest entity's performance; and (2) the obligation to absorb losses and rights to receive the returns from VIE that would be significant to the VIE.

Impairment: On an annual basis management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the Partnership's rental properties or investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries may be impaired. In addition to identifying any specific circumstances which may affect a property or properties, management considers other criteria for determining which properties may require assessment for potential impairment. The criteria considered by management include reviewing low leased percentages, significant near term lease expirations, recently acquired properties, current and historical operating and/or cash flow losses, near term mortgage debt maturities or other factors that might impact the Partnership's intent and ability to hold property. A property's value is impaired only if management's estimate of the aggregate future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) to be generated by the property is less than the carrying value of the property. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss shall be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the property over the fair value of the property. The Partnership's estimates of aggregate future cash flows expected to be generated by each property are based on a number of assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, among others, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and costs to operate each property. As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management's assumptions, the future cash flows estimated by management in its impairment analyses may not be achieved.

Revenue Recognition: Rental income from residential and commercial properties is recognized over the term of the related lease. For residential tenants, amounts 60 days in arrears are charged against income. The commercial tenants are evaluated on a case by case basis. Certain leases of the commercial properties provide for increasing stepped minimum rents, which are accounted for on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Contingent rent for commercial properties are received from tenants for certain costs as provided in the lease agreement. The costs generally include real estate taxes, utilities, insurance, common area maintenance and recoverable costs. Rental concessions are also accounted for on the straight-line basis.

Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are initially recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the differences between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management's estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed-rate renewal options for below-market leases. The capitalized above-market lease values for acquired properties are amortized as a reduction of base rental revenue over the remaining term of the respective leases, and the capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to base rental revenue over the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market fixed-rate renewal options of the respective leases.

Rental Properties: Rental properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; improvements and additions which improve or extend the life of the assets are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost of the asset and related accumulated depreciation is eliminated from the accounts, and any gain or loss on such disposition is included in income. Fully depreciated assets are removed from the accounts. Rental properties are depreciated by both straight-line and accelerated methods over their estimated useful lives. Upon acquisition of rental property, the Partnership estimates the fair value of acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities assumed, generally consisting of the fair value of (i) above and below market leases, (ii) in-place leases and (iii) tenant relationships. The Partnership allocates the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values. The Partnership records goodwill or a gain on bargain purchase (if any) if the net assets acquired/liabilities assumed exceed the purchase consideration of a transaction. In estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired, the Partnership considers information obtained about each property as a result of its due diligence and marketing and leasing activities, and utilizes various valuation methods, such as estimated cash flow projections utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates, estimates of replacement costs net of depreciation, and available market information. The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it were vacant.

Other intangible assets acquired include amounts for in-place lease values and tenant relationship values, which are based on management's evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant's lease and the Partnership's overall relationship with the respective tenant. Factors to be considered by management in its analysis of in-place lease values include an estimate of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, depending on local market conditions. In estimating costs to execute similar leases, management considers leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses. Characteristics considered by management in valuing tenant relationships include the nature and extent of the Partnership's existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant's credit quality and expectations of lease renewals. The value of in-place leases are amortized to expense over the remaining initial terms of the respective leases. The value of tenant relationship intangibles are amortized to expense over the anticipated life of the relationships.

Financing and Leasing Fees: Financing fees are capitalized and amortized, using the interest method, over the life of the related mortgages. Leasing fees are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the related lease. Unamortized balances are expensed when the corresponding fee is no longer applicable.

Income Taxes: The financial statements have been prepared on the basis that NERA and its subsidiaries are entitled to tax treatment as partnerships. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes have been recorded (See Note 13).

Cash Equivalents: The Partnership considers cash equivalents to be all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less.

Segment Reporting: Operating segments are revenue producing components of the Partnership for which separate financial information is produced internally for management. Under the definition, NERA operated, for all periods presented, as one segment.

Comprehensive Income: Comprehensive income is defined as changes in partners' equity, exclusive of transactions with owners (such as capital contributions and dividends). NERA did not have any comprehensive income items in 2014, 2013, or 2012 other than net income as reported.

Income (Loss) Per Depositary Receipt: Effective January 3, 2012, the Partnership authorized a 3-for-1 forward split of its Depositary Receipts listed on the NYSE Amex and a concurrent adjustment of the exchange ratio of Depositary Receipts for Class A Units of the Partnership from 10-to-1 to 30-to-1, such that each Depositary Receipt represents one-thirtieth (¹/30) of a Class A Unit of the Partnership. All references to Depositary Receipts in the report are reflective of the 3- for-1 forward split.

Income Per Unit: Net income per unit has been calculated based upon the weighted average number of units outstanding during each period presented. The Partnership has no dilutive units and, therefore, basic net income is the same as diluted net income per unit (see Note 7).

Concentration of Credit Risks and Financial Instruments: The Partnership's properties are located in New England, and the Partnership is subject to the general economic risks related thereto. No single tenant accounted for more than 5% of the Partnership's revenues in 2014, 2013, or 2012. The Partnership makes its temporary cash investments with high-credit quality financial institutions. At December 31, 2014, substantially all of the Partnership's cash and cash equivalents were held in interest-bearing accounts at financial institutions, earning interest at rates from 0.01% to 0.35%. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively approximately $15,118,000 and $15,275,000 of cash and cash equivalents, and security deposits included in prepaid expenses and other assets exceeded federally insured amounts.

Advertising Expense: Advertising is expensed as incurred. Advertising expense was $119,015, $41,285 and $52,084 in 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

adopt the guidance for new disposals (or new classifications as held for sale) that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued or available for issuance. The Partnership has elected to early adopt this standard effective with the interim period beginning January 1, 2014. Prior to January 1, 2014, properties identified as held for sale and/or disposed of were presented in discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Interest Capitalized: The Partnership follows the policy of capitalizing interest as a component of the cost of rental property when the time of construction exceeds one year. During the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 there was no capitalized interest.

Extinguishment of Debt: When existing mortgages are refinanced with the same lender and it is determined that the refinancing is substantially different then they are recorded as an extinguishment of debt. However if it is determined that the refinancing is substantially the same then they are recorded as an exchange of debt. All refinancing qualify as extinguishment of debt.

Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts in order to conform to current period presentation.

As of December 31, 2014, the Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships owned 2,412 residential apartment units in 20 residential and mixed-use complexes (collectively, the "Apartment Complexes"). The Partnership also owns 19 condominium units in a residential condominium complex, all of which are leased to residential tenants (collectively referred to as the "Condominium Units"). The Apartment Complexes and Condominium Units are located primarily in the metropolitan Boston area of Massachusetts.

Additionally, as of December 31, 2014, the Partnership and Subsidiary Partnerships owned a commercial shopping center in Framingham, commercial buildings in Newton and Brookline and mixed-use properties in Boston, Brockton and Newton, all in Massachusetts. These properties are referred to collectively as the "Commercial Properties."

The Partnership also owned a 40% to 50% ownership interest in nine residential and mixed use complexes (the "Investment Properties") at December 31, 2014 with a total of 790 units, accounted for using the equity method of consolidation. See Note 14 for summary information on these investments.

Internal Revenue Service's rules under Sec. 1031. The gain on the sale in accordance with GAAP is approximately $3,679,000. The proceeds were subsequently used in the acquisition of the Hamilton Green Apartments described below.

On July 15, 2013, Hamilton Green Apartments, LLC, ("Hamilton Green") a newly formed subsidiary of the Partnership, purchased Windsor Green at Andover, a 193 unit apartment complex located at 311 and 319 Lowell Street, Andover, Massachusetts. The purchase price was $62,500,000. From the purchase price, the Partnership has allocated approximately $1,656,000 to the value of the in-place leases and approximately $96,000 to the value of the tenant relationships. These amounts will be amortized over 12 and 36 months respectively. To fund this purchase, the Partnership obtained short term financing of approximately $40,000,000, used the funds of approximately $2,100,000 from the sale of the Nashoba Apartments, and the balance from the Partnership's cash reserves. The closing costs associated with this short term financing were approximately $38,000. The original mortgage matured in November 2013. On December 20, 2013, the Partnership refinanced the mortgage on Hamilton Green. The new 15 year mortgage is $38,500,000; the interest rate is 4.67%; interest only for 2 years. After the first two years, principal is amortized on a 30-year amortization schedule through January 2029. This refinancing required additional capital of approximately $1,846,000 from the Partnership. The closing costs associated with this refinancing were approximately $346,000.

The Partnership's properties are managed by an entity that is owned by the majority shareholder of the General Partner. The management fee is equal to 4% of gross receipts of rental revenue and laundry income on the majority of the Partnership's properties and 3% on Linewt. Total fees paid were approximately $1,745,000, $1,578,000 and $1,447,000 in 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The Partnership Agreement permits the General Partner or Management Company to charge the costs of professional services (such as counsel, accountants and contractors) to NERA. In 2014, 2013 and 2012, approximately $925,000, $1,431,000 and $686,000, was charged to NERA for legal, accounting, construction, maintenance, rental and architectural services and supervision of capital improvements. Of the 2014 expenses referred to above, approximately $368,000 consisted of repairs and maintenance, $350,000 of administrative expense and $56,000 for rental commission. Approximately $151,000 of expenses for construction, architectural services and supervision of capital projects were capitalized in rental properties. Additionally in 2014, the Hamilton Company received approximately $955,000 from the Investment Properties of which approximately $652,000 was the management fee, approximately $165,000 was for construction, architectural services and supervision of capital projects, approximately $80,000 was for maintenance services, approximately $16,000 was for rental commissions and approximately $42,000 was for administrative services. The management fee is equal to 4% of gross receipts rental income on the majority of investment properties and 2% on Dexter Park.

The Partnership reimburses the management company for the payroll and related expenses of the employees who work at the properties. Total reimbursement was approximately $3,230,000, $2,926,000 and $2,606,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Management Company maintains a 401K plan for all eligible employees whereby the employees may contribute the maximum allowed by law. The plan also provides for discretionary contributions by the employer. There were no employer contributions during 2014, 2013 or 2012.

Bookkeeping and accounting functions are provided by the Management Company's accounting staff, which consists of approximately 14 people. During the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 the Management Company charged the Partnership $125,000 per year for bookkeeping and accounting services included in administrative expenses above.

The President of the Management Company performs asset management consulting services and receives an asset management fee from the Partnership. The Partnership does not have a written agreement with this individual. During the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 this individual received a quarterly fee of $18,750 for a total fee of $75,000.

The Partnership has invested in nine limited partnerships, which have invested in mixed use residential apartment complexes. The Partnership has a 40% to 50% ownership interest in each investment property. The other investors are Harold Brown, the President of the Management Company and five other employees of the Management Company. Harold Brown's ownership interest is between 43.2% and 57%. See Note 14 for a description of the properties and their operations.

On October 28, 2009, the Partnership borrowed approximately $7,168,000 with an interest rate of 6% from HBC Holdings, LLC, an entity owned by Harold Brown and his affiliates ("HBC"). The term of the loan is four years with a provision requiring payment in whole or in part upon demand by HBC with six months notice. The Partnership may also prepay the note without penalty. On August 17, 2010, HBC gave six months written notice to the Partnership requesting a principal pay down of $2,500,000. During the fourth quarter of 2010, the Partnership paid HBC $2,500,000 as requested. During 2011, the Partnership elected to make principal payments of $1,000,000 on August 1, 2011, $1,000,000 on October 1, 2011 and $1,000,000 on December 15, 2011 reducing the loan balance to $1,668,600. In February 2012, the Partnership elected to make additional principal payments of $750,000 to HBC Holdings and the balance of $918,600 was paid in full in April 2012.

Under the terms of the renewed Repurchase Program, the Partnership may purchase up to 1,500,000 Depositary Receipts from the start of the program in 2007 through March 31, 2015. On March 10, 2015, the General Partner authorized an increase in the Repurchase Program from 1,500,000 to 2,000,000 Depository Receipts and extended the Program for an additional five years from March 31, 2015 until March 31, 2020. The Repurchase Program requires the Partnership to repurchase a proportionate number of Class B Units and General Partner Units in connection with any repurchases of any Depositary Receipts by the Partnership based upon the 80%, 19% and 1% fixed distribution percentages of the holders of the Class A, Class B and General Partner Units under the Partnership's Second Amended and Restate Contract of Limited Partnership.

In 2014, the Partnership was involved in non-cash refinancing activities of approximately $7,077,000 for NERA Dean Street Associates, LLC and Westgate Apartments Burlington, LLC.

At December 31, 2014 and 2013, we do not have any significant financial assets or financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis in our consolidated financial statements.

At December 31, 2014 and 2013 the carrying amounts of certain of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and notes payable, accounts payable and accrued expenses were representative of their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments or, the recent acquisition of these items.

At December 31, 2014 and 2013, we estimated the fair value of our mortgages payable and other notes based upon quoted market prices for the same (Level 1) or similar (Level 2) issues when current quoted market prices are available. We estimated the fair value of our secured mortgage debt that does not have current quoted market prices available by discounting the future cash flows using rates currently available to us for debt with similar terms and maturities (Level 3). The differences in the fair value of our debt from the carrying value are the result of differences in interest rates and/or borrowing spreads that were available to us at December 31, 2014 and 2013, as compared with those in effect when the debt was issued or acquired. The secured mortgage debt contain pre-payment penalties or yield maintenance provisions that could make the cost of refinancing the debt at lower rates exceed the benefit that would be derived from doing so.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Partnership in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments:

The following table reflects the carrying amounts and estimated fair value of our debt.

Disclosure about fair value of financial instruments is based on pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2014 and 2013. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued

for purposes of these financial statements since December 31, 2014 and current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.

Taxable income reportable by the Partnership and includable in its partners' tax returns is different than financial statement income because of tax free exchanges, accelerated depreciation, different tax lives, and timing differences related to prepaid rents, allowances and intangible assets at significant acquisitions. Taxable loss of approximately $2,100,000 was approximately $3,100,000 less than statement income for the year ended December 31, 2014. The primary reason for the decrease is due to accelerated depreciation, tax free exchange and other differences in the treatment of certain expenditures. The cumulative tax basis of the Partnership's real estate at December 31, 2014 is approximately $5,000,000 less than the statement basis. The primary reasons for the lower tax basis are tax free exchanges, and accelerated depreciation. The Partnership's tax basis in its joint venture investments is approximately $1,300,000 less than statement basis because of accelerated depreciation.

Certain entities included in the Partnership's consolidated financial statements are subject to certain state taxes. These taxes are not significant and are recorded as operating expenses in the accompanying consolidates financial statements.

Allowable accelerated depreciation deductions expired in 2014. This may result in higher taxable income in future years. Future tax law changes may significantly affect taxable income.

The Partnership adopted the amended provisions related to uncertain tax provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes. As a result of the implementation of the guidance, the Partnership recognized no material adjustments regarding its tax accounting treatment. The Partnership expects to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, as income tax expense, which would be included in general and administrative expense.

In the normal course of business the Partnership or one of its subsidiaries is subject to examination by federal, state and local jurisdictions in which it operates, where applicable. As of December 31,

2014, the tax years that remain subject to examination by the major tax jurisdictions under the statute of limitations is from the year 2009 forward.

In January 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Comprehensive Income ("ASU 2013-02"), which requires an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income if the amount being reclassified is required under GAAP to be reclassified in its entirety to net income. For other amounts that are not required under GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income within the same reporting period, an entity is required to cross-reference other disclosures that provide additional detail about the reclassified amounts. The Partnership adopted the provisions of ASU 2013-02 on January 1, 2013, which did not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements or notes thereto.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, which requires management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide certain disclosures when it is probable that the entity will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. ASU 2014-15 is effective for the annual period ended December 31,2016 and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2014-15 is not expected to materially impact the Partnership's consolidated financial statements.

The following tables summarize income from discontinued operations and the related realized gain on sale of rental property for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012:
