NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note A – Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Davidson Growth Plus, L.P. (the "Partnership" or "Registrant") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of Davidson Growth Plus GP Corporation (the "Managing General Partner"), all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005. The Managing General Partner is an affiliate of Apartment Investment and Management Company ("AIMCO"), a publicly traded real estate investment trust.

Note B – Transactions with Affiliated Parties

The Partnership has no employees and depends on the Managing General Partner and its affiliates for the management and administration of all Partnership activities. Affiliates of the Managing General Partner provide property management and asset management services to the Partnership. The Partnership Agreement provides for (i) payments to affiliates for services and (ii) reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by affiliates on behalf of the Partnership.

Affiliates of the Managing General Partner receive 5% of gross receipts from all of the Partnership's properties as compensation for providing property management services. The Partnership paid to such affiliates approximately $144,000 and $128,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, which is included in operating expenses.

Affiliates of the Managing General Partner charged the Partnership for reimbursement of accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately $94,000 and $90,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expense and investment properties. The portion of these reimbursements included in investment properties for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 are fees related to construction management services provided by an affiliate of the Managing General Partner of approximately $20,000 and $23,000, respectively. As of June 30, 2006, the Partnership owed an affiliate of the Managing General Partner approximately $55,000 of accrued accountable administrative expenses, which is included in due to affiliates.

The Partnership Agreement provides for the Managing General Partner to receive a fee for managing the affairs of the Partnership. The fee is 2% of adjusted cash from operations as defined in the Partnership Agreement. Payment of this management fee is subordinated and is payable only after the Partnership has distributed to the limited partners adjusted cash from operations in any year equal to 10% of the limited partners adjusted invested capital, as defined in the Partnership Agreement, or upon the refinance or sale of a property in the Partnership. No Partnership management fees were accrued or paid during the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. Unpaid subordinated Partnership management fees at June 30, 2006, are approximately $44,000, which is included in other liabilities.

During the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, the Managing General Partner advanced approximately $210,000 and $346,000, respectively, to the Partnership to pay redevelopment costs and real estate taxes. At June 30, 2006, the amount of outstanding loans and accrued interest was approximately $2,270,000 and is included in due to affiliates on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Interest on the advances is charged at prime plus 1%, or 9.25% at June 30, 2006. Interest expense on the advances was approximately $93,000 and $22,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

The Partnership insures its properties up to certain limits through coverage provided by AIMCO which is generally self-insured for a portion of losses and liabilities related to workers compensation, property casualty, general liability and vehicle liability. The Partnership insures its properties above the AIMCO limits through insurance policies obtained by AIMCO from insurers unaffiliated with the Managing General Partner. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $173,000 for hazard insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration. Additional charges will be incurred by the Partnership during 2006 as other insurance policies renew later in the year. The Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $80,000 for insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration during the year ended December 31, 2005.

Note C – Minority Interest in Joint Venture

The Partnership owns an 82.5% general partner interest in the Sterling Crest Joint Venture ("Joint Venture") which operates Brighton Crest Apartments. The Partnership exercises control over the activities of the Joint Venture in accordance with the Joint Venture Agreement. The minority partner is an affiliated public partnership. As a result of the use of the equity method of accounting for the minority partner's investment in the joint venture, that minority interest has been reduced to zero. When the Joint Venture makes distributions in excess of the minority partner's investment balance, the Partnership, as the majority partner, records a charge equal to the minority partner's excess distribution over the investment balance. The charge is classified as distributions to minority interest partner in excess of investment on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Losses are allocated to the minority partner to the extent they do not create a minority deficit, in which case the Partnership recognizes 100% of the losses in operating income. The Partnership will recognize 100% of future net income of the Joint Venture to the extent of previously unallocated losses and distributions. Distributions to the minority partner have reduced its investment balance to zero. The Joint Venture had a net loss of approximately $106,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and a net loss of approximately $144,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively. The minority partner’s share of net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 was approximately $19,000 and $25,000, respectively. The Partnership recognized 100% of the net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and the net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2005 due to the minority partner’s investment balance being reduced to zero in 2002. There were no distributions from the Joint Venture to the minority partner during the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. The remaining unallocated losses and distributions at June 30, 2006 are approximately $950,000.

Note D – Casualty Events

In August 2004, the Partnership’s investment property located in Brandon, Florida, The Village Apartments, sustained damage from Hurricane Frances. The damage was estimated to be approximately $64,000 and the Partnership did not receive any insurance proceeds. During the six months ended June 30, 2005, the Partnership wrote off the net book value of the damaged assets of approximately $10,000, which resulted in a casualty loss. The casualty loss is included in operating expense on the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

On March 15, 2006, The Fairway Apartments experienced damage from a fire that damaged a total of 8 units. Insurance proceeds of approximately $140,000 were received during the six months ended June 30, 2006 related to this casualty. The Partnership recognized a casualty gain of approximately $88,000 as a result of the receipt of approximately $140,000 in insurance proceeds net of the write-off of undepreciated assets of approximately $52,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2006. Subsequent to June 30, 2006 the Partnership received additional insurance proceeds of approximately $103,000.

Note E – Contingencies

In March 1998, several putative unit holders of limited partnership units of the Partnership commenced an action entitled Rosalie Nuanes, et al. v. Insignia Financial Group, Inc., et al. (the "Nuanes action") in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of San Mateo. The plaintiffs named as defendants, among others, the Partnership, its Managing General Partner and several of their affiliated partnerships and corporate entities. The action purported to assert claims on behalf of a class of limited partners and derivatively on behalf of a number of limited partnerships (including the Partnership) that are named as nominal defendants, challenging, among other things, the acquisition of interests in certain Managing General Partner entities by Insignia Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia") and entities that were, at one time, affiliates of Insignia; past tender offers by the Insignia affiliates to acquire limited partnership units; management of the partnerships by the Insignia affiliates; and the series of transactions which closed on October 1, 1998 and February 26, 1999 whereby Insignia and Insignia Properties Trust, respectively, were merged into AIMCO. The plaintiffs sought monetary damages and equitable relief, including judicial dissolution of the Partnership. In addition, during the third quarter of 2001, a complaint captioned Heller v. Insignia Financial Group (the "Heller action") was filed against the same defendants that are named in the Nuanes action. On or about August 6, 2001, plaintiffs filed a first amended complaint. The Heller action was brought as a purported derivative action, and asserted claims for, among other things, breach of fiduciary duty, unfair competition, conversion, unjust enrichment, and judicial dissolution. On January 28, 2002, the trial court granted defendants motion to strike the complaint. Plaintiffs took an appeal from this order.

On January 8, 2003, the parties filed a Stipulation of Settlement in proposed settlement of the Nuanes action and the Heller action. On June 13, 2003, the court granted final approval of the settlement and entered judgment in both the Nuanes and Heller actions. On August 12, 2003, an objector ("Objector") filed an appeal (the “Appeal”) seeking to vacate and/or reverse the order approving the settlement and entering judgment thereto. On May 4, 2004, the Objector filed a second appeal challenging the court’s use of a referee and its order requiring Objector to pay those fees.

On March 21, 2005, the Court of Appeals issued opinions in both pending appeals. With regard to the settlement and judgment entered thereto, the Court of Appeals vacated the trial court’s order and remanded to the trial court for further findings on the basis that the “state of the record is insufficient to permit meaningful appellate review”. The matter was transferred back to the trial court on June 21, 2005. With regard to the second appeal, the Court of Appeals reversed the order requiring the Objector to pay referee fees. With respect to the related Heller appeal, on July 28, 2005, the Court of Appeals reversed the trial court’s order striking the first amended complaint.

On August 18, 2005, Objector and his counsel filed a motion to disqualify the trial court based on a peremptory challenge and filed a motion to disqualify for cause on October 17, 2005, both of which were ultimately denied and/or struck by the trial court. On or about October 13, 2005 Objector filed a motion to intervene and on or about October 19, 2005 filed both a motion to take discovery relating to the adequacy of plaintiffs as derivative representatives and a motion to dissolve the anti-suit injunction in connection with settlement. On November 14, 2005, Plaintiffs filed a Motion For Further Findings pursuant to the remand ordered by the Court of Appeals. Defendants joined in that motion. On February 3, 2006, the Court held a hearing on the various matters pending before it and ordered additional briefing from the parties and Objector. On June 30, 2006, the trial court entered an order confirming its approval of the class action settlement and entering judgment thereto after the Court of Appeals had remanded the matter for further findings. The substantive terms of the settlement agreement remain unchanged. The trial court also entered supplemental orders on July 1, 2006, denying Objector’s Motion to File a Complaint in Intervention, Objector’s Motion for Leave of Discovery and Objector’s Motion to Dissolve the Anti-Suit Injunction. Notice of Entry of Judgment was served on July 10, 2006.

The Managing General Partner does not anticipate that any costs to the Partnership, whether legal or settlement costs, associated with these cases will be material to the Partnership’s overall operations.

AIMCO Properties L.P. and NHP Management Company, both affiliates of the Managing General Partner, are defendants in a lawsuit alleging that they willfully violated the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”) by failing to pay maintenance workers overtime for all hours worked in excess of forty per week. The complaint, filed in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, attempts to bring a collective action under the FLSA and seeks to certify state subclasses in California, Maryland, and the District of Columbia. Specifically, the plaintiffs contend that AIMCO Properties L.P. and NHP Management Company failed to compensate maintenance workers for time that they were required to be "on-call." Additionally, the complaint alleges AIMCO Properties L.P. and NHP Management Company failed to comply with the FLSA in compensating maintenance workers for time that they worked in excess of 40 hours in a week. In June 2005 the court conditionally certified the collective action on both the on-call and overtime issues. Approximately 1,049 individuals opted in to the class. The defendants are moving to decertify the collective action on both issues in briefs to be filed by August 15, 2006. Because the court denied plaintiffs’ motion to certify state subclasses, on September 26, 2005, the plaintiffs filed a class action with the same allegations in the Superior Court of California (Contra Costa County), and on November 5, 2005 in Montgomery County Maryland Circuit Court. The California case has been stayed, and the defendants have moved to stay the Maryland case as well. Although the outcome of any litigation is uncertain, AIMCO Properties, L.P. does not believe that the ultimate outcome will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial condition or results of operations. Similarly, the Managing General Partner does not believe that the ultimate outcome will have a material adverse effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

The Partnership is unaware of any other pending or outstanding litigation matters involving it or its investment properties that are not of a routine nature arising in the ordinary course of business.

Environmental

Various Federal, state and local laws subject property owners or operators to liability for management, and the costs of removal or remediation, of certain hazardous substances present on a property. Such laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the release or presence of the hazardous substances. The presence of, or the failure to manage or remedy properly, hazardous substances may adversely affect occupancy at affected apartment communities and the ability to sell or finance affected properties. In addition to the costs associated with investigation and remediation actions brought by government agencies, and potential fines, or penalties imposed by such agencies in connection therewith, the presence of hazardous substances on a property could result in claims by private plaintiffs for personal injury, disease, disability or other infirmities. Various laws also impose liability for the cost of removal, remediation or disposal of hazardous substances through a licensed disposal or treatment facility. Anyone who arranges for the disposal or treatment of hazardous substances is potentially liable under such laws. These laws often impose liability whether or not the person arranging for the disposal ever owned or operated the disposal facility. In connection with the ownership, operation and management of its properties, the Partnership could potentially be liable for environmental liabilities or costs associated with its properties.

Mold

The Partnership is aware of lawsuits against owners and managers of multifamily property asserting claims of personal injury and property damage caused by the presence of mold, some of which have resulted in substantial monetary judgments or settlements. The Partnership has only limited insurance coverage for property damage loss claims arising from the presence of mold and for personal injury claims related to mold exposure. Affiliates of the Managing General Partner have implemented a national policy and procedures to prevent or eliminate mold from its properties and the Managing General Partner believes that these measures will minimize the effects that mold could have on residents. To date, the Partnership has not incurred any material costs or liabilities relating to claims of mold exposure or to abate mold conditions. Because the law regarding mold is unsettled and subject to change the Managing General Partner can make no assurance that liabilities resulting from the presence of or exposure to mold will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

The matters discussed in this report contain certain forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, statements regarding future financial performance and the effect of government regulations. Actual results may differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements and will be affected by a variety of risks and factors including, without limitation: national and local economic conditions; the terms of governmental regulations that affect the Registrant and interpretations of those regulations; the competitive environment in which the Registrant operates; financing risks, including the risk that cash flows from operations may be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest; real estate risks, including variations of real estate values and the general economic climate in local markets and competition for tenants in such markets; litigation, including costs associated with prosecuting and defending claims and any adverse outcomes, and possible environmental liabilities. Readers should carefully review the Registrant's financial statements and the notes thereto, as well as the risk factors described in the documents the Registrant files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Partnership's investment properties consist of three apartment complexes. The following table sets forth the average occupancy of the properties for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005:


	Average Occupancy
Property	2006	2005

Brighton Crest Apartments	94%	88%
Marietta, Georgia
The Fairway Apartments	96%	84%
Plano, Texas
The Village Apartments	95%	95%
Brandon, Florida

The Managing General Partner attributes the increase in occupancy at Brighton Crest Apartments to increased curb appeal of the property and improved tenant retention efforts.

The Managing General Partner attributes the increase in occupancy at The Fairway Apartments to improvements made to the property during 2005.

The Partnership’s financial results depend upon a number of factors including the ability to attract and maintain tenants at the investment properties, interest rates on mortgage loans, costs incurred to operate the investment properties, general economic conditions and weather. As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the Managing General Partner monitors the rental market environment of its investment properties to assess the feasibility of increasing rents, maintaining or increasing occupancy levels and protecting the Partnership from increases in expenses. As part of this plan, the Managing General Partner attempts to protect the Partnership from the burden of inflation-related increases in expenses by increasing rents and maintaining a high overall occupancy level. However, the Managing General Partner may use rental concessions and rental rate reductions to offset softening market conditions, accordingly, there is no guarantee that the Managing General Partner will be able to sustain such a plan. Further, a number of factors that are outside the control of the Partnership such as the local economic climate and weather can adversely or positively affect the Partnership’s financial results.

Results of Operations

The Partnership’s net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 was approximately $186,000 and $368,000, respectively, compared to a net loss of approximately $174,000 and $247,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005. The increase in net loss for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 was due to an increase in total expenses partially offset by an increase in total revenues. The increase in total revenues for both periods was due to an increase in both rental income and other income and a casualty gain. Rental income increased due to increases in occupancy at both Brighton Crest Apartments and The Fairway Apartments and increases in average rental rates at all three properties. The increase in other income is due to an increase in utility reimbursements at all three investment properties, late charges at Brighton Crest Apartments and an increase in interest income.

Total expenses increased for both periods due to an increase in operating, depreciation and interest expense. General and administrative and property tax expense remained relatively constant for the comparable periods. Operating expense increased due to an increase in property, insurance, administrative and management fee expenses partially offset by a decrease in advertising expenses. Property expense increased due to an increase in salaries and related benefits at all three properties and referral costs at Brighton Crest Apartments. Insurance expense increased due to an increase in hazard insurance costs at all three investment properties. Administrative expense increased due to an increase in telephone call centers and tenant application and retention costs. Management fee expense increased as a result of an increase in rental income on which such fee is based. Advertising expense decreased as a result of decreases in both web and print media advertising at Brighton Crest Apartments. Depreciation expense increased due to assets being placed into service at all three investment properties. Interest expense increased due to an increase in advances from an affiliate of the Managing General Partner along with an increase in the variable rate charged on such advances and, the addition of a second mortgage on The Village Apartments in December 2005, partially offset by a decrease in interest expense as a result of scheduled principal payments on the mortgages encumbering the investment properties.

Included in general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 are management reimbursements to the Managing General Partner as allowed under the Partnership Agreement. Also included in general and administrative expenses for both periods are costs associated with the quarterly and annual communications with investors and regulatory agencies and the annual audit required by the Partnership Agreement.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2006, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $188,000 compared to approximately $131,000 at June 30, 2005. Cash and cash equivalents decreased approximately $413,000 since December 31, 2005 due to approximately $927,000 of cash used in investing activities and approximately $91,000 of cash used in financing activities partially offset by approximately $605,000 of cash provided by operating activities. Cash used in investing activities consisted of property improvements and replacements and net deposits to restricted escrow accounts partially offset by the receipt of insurance proceeds. Cash used in financing activities consisted of principal payments made on the mortgages encumbering the Partnership’s investment properties and additional loan costs paid related to the December 2005 second mortgage obtained on The Village Apartments partially offset by an advance from an affiliate of the Managing General Partner. The Partnership invests its working capital reserves in interest bearing accounts.

The sufficiency of existing liquid assets to meet future liquidity and capital expenditure requirements is directly related to the level of capital expenditures required at the Partnership’s properties to adequately maintain the physical assets and other operating needs of the Partnership and to comply with Federal, state, and local legal and regulatory requirements. The Managing General Partner monitors developments in the area of legal and regulatory compliance. For example, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 mandates or suggests additional compliance measures with regard to governance, disclosure, audit and other areas. In light of these changes, the Partnership expects that it will incur higher expenses related to compliance. Capital improvements for each of the Partnership’s properties are detailed below.

Brighton Crest Apartments

During the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Partnership completed approximately $133,000 of capital improvements at Brighton Crest Apartments, consisting primarily of floor covering and appliance replacements. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow and replacement reserves. The Partnership regularly evaluates the capital improvement needs of the property. While the Partnership has no material commitments for property improvements and replacements, certain routine capital expenditures are anticipated during 2006. Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as replacement reserves and anticipated cash flow generated by the property.

The Fairway Apartments

During the six months ended June 30, 2006 the Partnership completed approximately $240,000 of capital improvements at the property arising from the redevelopment of the property which includes capitalized construction period interest of approximately $7,000. Additional capital improvements of approximately $194,000 consisted primarily of floor covering and appliance replacements. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow, an advance from an affiliate of the Managing General Partner and insurance proceeds. In August 2005, the Partnership began a major redevelopment project in order for the property to become more competitive with other properties in the Dallas area. The redevelopment was completed in the first quarter of 2006 at a total cost of approximately $2,200,000. The project consisted of structural upgrades, interior and exterior building improvements, balcony and deck upgrades, partial roof replacement, major landscaping, and parking area upgrades. The Partnership regularly evaluates the capital improvement needs of the property. While the Partnership had no material commitments for property improvements and replacements, now that the redevelopment project is complete, certain routine capital expenditures are anticipated during 2006. Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as anticipated cash flow generated by the property.

The Village Apartments

During the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Partnership completed approximately $86,000 of capital improvements at The Village Apartments, consisting primarily of structural upgrades and floor covering and appliance replacements. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow and replacement reserves. The Partnership regularly evaluates the capital improvement needs of the property. While the Partnership has no material commitments for property improvements and replacements, certain routine capital expenditures are anticipated during 2006. Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as replacement reserves and anticipated cash flow generated by the property.

Capital expenditures will be incurred only if cash is available from operations, Partnership reserves, or advances from an affiliate of the Managing General Partner. To the extent that such capital improvements are completed, the Partnership’s distributable cash flow, if any, may be adversely affected at least in the short term.

The Partnership’s assets are thought to be sufficient for any near-term needs (exclusive of capital improvements) of the Partnership. The mortgage indebtedness encumbering The Village Apartments consists of a first mortgage of approximately $3,261,000 and a second mortgage of approximately $2,057,000, both of which mature on December 1, 2015 at which time balloon payments of approximately $2,888,000 and $1,735,000 are due. The remaining mortgage indebtedness of approximately $15,029,000 is amortized over 20 years and matures January 1, 2021 and February 1, 2022, at which time the loans are scheduled to be fully amortized.

There were no distributions during the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of net cash generated from operations, and the timing of debt maturities, refinancings, and/or property sales. The Partnership’s cash available for distribution is reviewed on a monthly basis. In light of the amounts accrued and payable to affiliates of the Managing General Partner at June 30, 2006, there can be no assurance that the Partnership will generate sufficient funds from operations, after planned capital improvements, to permit any distributions to its partners during the remainder of 2006 or subsequent periods.

Other

In addition to its indirect ownership of the managing general partner interest in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 17,660 limited partnership units (the "Units") in the Partnership representing 62.25% of the outstanding Units at June 30, 2006. A number of these Units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. It is possible that AIMCO or its affiliates will acquire additional Units in exchange for cash or a combination of cash and units in AIMCO Properties, L.P., the operating partnership of AIMCO, either through private purchases or tender offers. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, unitholders holding a majority of the Units are entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters that include, but are not limited to, voting on certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting to remove the Managing General Partner. As a result of its ownership of 62.25% of the outstanding Units, AIMCO and its affiliates are in a position to control all voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. Although the Managing General Partner owes fiduciary duties to the limited partners of the Partnership, the Managing General Partner also owes fiduciary duties to AIMCO as its sole stockholder. As a result, the duties of the Managing General Partner, as managing general partner, to the Partnership and its limited partners may come into conflict with the duties of the Managing General Partner to AIMCO as its sole stockholder.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require the Partnership to make estimates and assumptions. The Partnership believes that of its significant accounting policies, the following may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Investment properties are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation, unless the carrying amount of the asset is not recoverable. If events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a property may not be recoverable, the Partnership will make an assessment of its recoverability by comparing the carrying amount to the Partnership’s estimate of the undiscounted future cash flows, excluding interest charges, of the property. If the carrying amount exceeds the aggregate undiscounted future cash flows, the Partnership would recognize an impairment loss to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the property.

Real property investment is subject to varying degrees of risk. Several factors may adversely affect the economic performance and value of the Partnership’s investment properties. These factors include, but are not limited to, general economic climate; competition from other apartment communities and other housing options; local conditions, such as loss of jobs or an increase in the supply of apartments that might adversely affect apartment occupancy or rental rates; changes in governmental regulations and the related cost of compliance; increases in operating costs (including real estate taxes) due to inflation and other factors, which may not be offset by increased rents; and changes in tax laws and housing laws, including the enactment of rent control laws or other laws regulating multi-family housing. Any adverse changes in these factors could cause impairment of the Partnership’s assets.

Capitalized Costs Related to Redevelopment and Construction Projects

The Partnership capitalizes costs incurred in connection with capital expenditure activities, including redevelopment and construction projects. Costs associated with redevelopment projects are capitalized in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 67, “Accounting for Costs and the Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Properties.” Included in these capitalized costs are payroll costs associated with time spent by site employees in connection with the planning, execution and control of all capital expenditure activities at the property level. The Partnership capitalizes interest, property taxes and operating costs in accordance with SFAS No. 34 “Capitalization of Interest Costs” during periods in which redevelopment and construction projects are in progress.

Revenue Recognition

The Partnership generally leases apartment units for twelve-month terms or less. The Partnership will offer rental concessions during particularly slow months or in response to heavy competition from other similar complexes in the area. Rental income attributable to leases, net of any concessions, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The Partnership evaluates all accounts receivable from residents and establishes an allowance, after the application of security deposits, for accounts greater than 30 days past due on current tenants and all receivables due from former tenants.

ITEM 3.

Based on such evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Managing General Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
