PART I

Item 1.        Business.

        Gulledge Realty Investors II, L.P., ("Registrant" or "Partnership") is a Virginia limited partnership formed to invest as a limited partner in other limited partnerships ("Project Partnerships") that own and operate apartment complexes ("Projects") that are financed and/or operated under federal or state housing assistance programs. Part of the original objective of the Registrant was to generate tax losses for investors. However, due to changes in the tax regulations, the use of these losses has been restricted for most investors.

        The Registrant is attempting to sell its assets and liquidate. Though the Registrant's current investment balance in these Project Partnerships is zero, the impact on future operations could be significant as distributions from Project Partnerships are the primary source of revenue for the Registrant. Proceeds, if any, from the sale of the Project Partnerships will be used to pay Registrant liabilities. The Registrant does not anticipate the sales to generate sufficient proceeds to make a distribution to partners. Any sale of the assets will cause capital gains to be passed through to partners as a result of negative tax basis in each of the investments from the accumulation of previous years' losses. The partners will also realize ordinary income to the extent liabilities are not satisfied by the sales proceeds.

        The ability to sell the Registrant's assets, i.e. the Project Partnerships, is limited by the overall market conditions in the geographic areas where the Projects operate and, potentially, by the ability of the Projects to qualify for Low Income Housing Tax Credits. For those Project Partnerships for which the Registrant's ownership interest is pledged as collateral in connection with promissory notes, the Registrant must also consider the outstanding balances of the notes and in some cases negotiate a reduced payoff on the notes.

        As of December 31, 2003, the Registrant has investments in Project Partnerships which own the Projects listed below:

        Although each Project must compete in the market place for tenants, interest subsidies and/or rent supplements from governmental agencies make it possible to offer certain of these dwelling units to eligible tenants at a cost significantly below the market rate for comparable conventionally-financed dwelling units.

        The Project Partnerships previously included Olympic Village Apts., which assets were sold in 2003, Country Oaks Apts., which limited partner interests were sold in 2003 and Pine West Ltd. and Rancho Vista Associates, which limited partner interests were sold in 2001.

Item 5.        Market for the Registrant's Common Equity and Related Security Holder Matters.

        As of December 31, 2003, the number of holders of units was 998.

        The Registrant is a limited partnership and thus has no common stock. There is no ready market for the Units and it is not anticipated that there will be any market. Any acquisitions or dispositions of Units that have occurred have been the result of private transactions, usually between related parties, and the Registrant has no knowledge of the prices bid for or asked with respect to the Units. The General Partner has no plans to offer any services that would match prospective buyers with prospective sellers of Units.

Item 7.         Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Result of Operations.

        The Registrant is a limited partnership formed to acquire limited partner interests in real estate limited partnerships (Project Partnerships). Part of the original objective of the Registrant was to generate tax losses for investors. However, due to changes in the tax regulations, there are some restrictions on the use of these losses.

        The Registrant is attempting to sell its assets and liquidate the Partnership. The ability to sell the Registrant's assets, i.e. the Project Partnerships, is limited by the overall market conditions in the geographic areas where the Projects operate and, potentially, by the ability of the Projects to qualify for Low Income Housing Tax Credits. For those Project Partnerships for which the Registrant's ownership interest is pledged as collateral in connection with promissory notes, the Registrant must also consider the outstanding balances of the notes and in some cases negotiate a reduced payoff on the notes. The sale of the assets will cause capital gains to be passed through to its partners as a result of negative tax basis in each of the investments from the accumulation of previous years' losses. The partners will also realize ordinary income to the extent liabilities are not satisfied by sales proceeds.

        The accounting for an investment in a Project Partnership involves increasing and decreasing the Registrant's investment in each Project Partnership by the Registrant's share of the Project Partnership's income and loss, respectively. If losses accumulate greater than gains plus capital contributions and less distributions to date, the investment is reduced until that investment reaches zero. Losses incurred by a Project Partnership subsequent to the Registrant's investment reaching zero are not reflected in the Registrant's financial statements until such time as the Project Partnership reports net income. Losses reported from the Project Partnerships are primarily the result of depreciation expense and interest expense incurred on non-recourse government backed debt and sole-recourse secondary financing loans. These losses, in and of themselves, do not accurately portray the surplus cash or excess cash (as defined by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD")) generating potential of the projects, such surplus cash being available for distribution to the partners of the Project Partnerships. The Registrant treats distributions as income, if the investment in the Project Partnership is zero, or as a return or withdrawal of capital invested in the Project Partnership, if the investment is above zero.

Results of Operations

        The net loss for 2003 was $270,504 compared to net loss of $120,485 for 2002 and net loss for 2001 of $329,969 (see Items 6 and 15(a)1) due to the changes in revenues and expenses noted below.

        Distributions from zero-basis Project Partnerships were $237,076 in 2003 compared to $399,314 in 2002 and $96,370 in 2001. The decrease in distributions from zero-basis Project Partnerships in 2003 as compared to 2002 was mainly the result of a decrease in occupancy for Hawthorn. The increase in distributions from zero-basis Project Partnerships in 2002 as compared to 2001 was mainly the result of the accounting treatment of distributions from limited liability partnerships under the equity method (see Note A to the Financial Statements). In 2003 and 2002, the Registrant received distributions of $233,136 and $399,314, respectively, from Hawthorn which were recognized as distributions from zero-basis Project Partnerships. In 2001, the Registrant recognized only $86,912 of its $373,481 distribution received from Hawthorn as distributions from zero-basis Project Partnerships as it first reduced its $286,570 investment balance in Hawthorn to zero.

        Equity in income of Project Partnerships was $0 in 2003 and 2002 as compared to $32,323 in 2001. The decrease in equity in income of Project Partnerships in 2002 was also due to the accounting treatment of investments in limited liability partnerships under the equity method. In 2003 and 2002, the Registrant did not recognize equity in income of Project Partnerships from Hawthorn, because Hawthorn's operating results along with distributions did not result in a write up of the investment value above its beginning balance of zero. In 2001, the beginning investment balance in Hawthorn was above zero. The Registrant recognized $32,323 as equity in income of Project Partnerships, which represented its pro-rata share of the earnings of Hawthorn prior to receipt of a distribution. The distribution reduced the investment balance to zero and the remaining amount was recognized as distributions from zero-basis project partnerships as explained above. Subsequent to receipt of the distribution and reduction of the investment balance to zero, equity income in Hawthorn was no longer recognized.

        The gain on sale of Project Partnerships of $76,000 in 2003 was due to the sale of the limited partner interests of Country Oaks. The limited partnership interests in Country Oaks were sold to GULL-AGE Properties, Inc. ("GAP"). The proceeds from the sale of $26,000 were used to make a payment on the amount owed to the General Partner. The remaining gain of $50,000 was due to the write-off of a contribution payable to Country Oaks. The partners of the Partnership will recognize capital gains on the sale of approximately $834,000. The gain on sale of Project Partnerships of $31,867 in 2001 was due to the sale of the limited partner interests of Rancho Vista Associates and Pine West, Ltd.

        In April 2003, the Partnership sold the assets of Olympic. As part of the terms of the sale, the purchaser assumed the primary mortgage on Olympic and all of the operating liabilities. A reduced payoff was negotiated on a secondary note which was collateralized by the Partnership's ownership interest in Olympic. The Partnership did not receive a distribution from the sale as all proceeds were used to pay expenses related to the sale. The Partnership did not recognize a gain or loss on the sale in the Statement of Operations as no proceeds were received and the Partnership had a zero basis in Olympic. As a result of the sale, partners of the Partnership will realize tax consequences including capital gains of approximately $3,500,000 and ordinary income to the extent of the reduced payoff on the secondary note in the approximate amount of $8,400,000.

        The decrease in miscellaneous income in 2003 compared to 2002 was due to a $10,000 deposit received in 2002 under the terms of a contract for the sale of Colony. The prospective buyer exercised its right under the sales contract to terminate the sale, forfeiting the deposit to the Registrant.

        Interest expense increased in 2003 and 2002, compared to 2001 as the result of a 2 percent increase in the interest rate on the note payable that became effective July 1, 2002.

        Professional fees increased in 2003 compared to 2002 as a result of an increase in audit fees.

        Operating expenses in 2003 compared to 2002 increased as the result of state taxes paid on behalf of two of the Project Partnerships and legal fees being incurred in connection with the disposition of the Project Partnerships. Operating expenses increased in 2002 compared to 2001 due to state taxes being paid on behalf of two of the Project Partnerships.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        The Registrant is liable for a promissory note that bears simple interest at a rate of 11 percent and is collateralized by the Registrant's ownership interest in Hawthorn. Principal and interest payable totaled $3,940,854 at December 31, 2003. Principal and interest can only be paid from distributions received from Hawthorn. The Registrant is not required to use distributions from other Project Partnerships to make payments on this promissory note. The promissory note along with accrued interest was due on June 30, 2002 and is currently in default. As a result, the Registrant's ownership interest in Hawthorn may revert to the noteholder (see Note E to Financial Statements). The noteholder has not notified the Registrant of a demand for payment or a claim on the collateral.

        In January of 2004, the Registrant sold the assets of Hawthorn. The Registrant recognized a gain on the sale of $3,401,551. Under the terms of the sale, the purchaser assumed the primary mortgage and all of the operating liabilities of Hawthorn. Proceeds of $3,301,551 from the sale were used to make a partial payment on the note payable which was collateralized by the Partnership's limited partner interests in Hawthorn. The remaining proceeds of $100,000 were used to pay Partnership liabilities owed to the general partner per the partnership agreement. The remaining balance of the note payable, including accrued interest to the date of the sale, of $597,363 was forgiven as part of the terms of a negotiated reduced payoff entered into prior to the sale.

        As a result of the sale of the assets of Hawthorn, capital gains of approximately $6,100,000 and ordinary income, to the extent of the debt forgiveness on the note payable, will be allocated to the partners based on the terms of the partnership agreement.

        The Registrant's ownership interest in Colony is pledged as collateral in connection with a promissory note issued by Colony. The Colony promissory note was due June 30, 1997 and had been extended to November 30, 1999, while the General Partner attempted to locate a buyer. A buyer was not located before November 30, 1999. This note is currently in default. Therefore, the Colony noteholder may demand payment and Colony may revert to its noteholder. In 2003, the Registrant entered into an agreement, subject to HUD approval, with a third-party purchaser to sell the limited partner interest in Colony. Under the terms of the agreement, the purchaser will acquire all of the assets as well as assume all of the liabilities of Colony, including the primary mortgage and operating liabilities, except for the secondary note. Immediately prior to the sale, $225,000 of proceeds will be used to make a negotiated reduced payoff on the secondary note, and approximately $10,000 will be used to pay expenses of the sale.

        The partners will be allocated capital gains of approximately $583,000 as a result of the gain on the sale of the limited partner interests in Colony, and ordinary income of approximately $756,000, resulting from the debt forgiveness on the promissory note, based on the terms of the partnership agreement.

        Due to the sales of Hawthorn and Country Oaks, the Partnership will no longer have a reliable source of operating cash, as Colony, its sole remaining project partnership, has not made a significant distribution to the Partnership since its purchase. Additionally, the sale of Colony is not expected to provide any proceeds to the Partnership. Also, as a result of the sale of Hawthorn, the Partnership will have no future obligations under the note payable agreement including the interest payments and annual consulting fees of $19,000 to GAP and $25,000 to the noteholder. Given the aforementioned sales and the pending sale of Colony, the Partnership will have limited operations going forward. Accordingly, the Partnership will not have sufficient cash to pay the liability to the General Partner, of approximately $997,000. To the extent existing cash balances are not sufficient, the Partnership will be unable to pay the liability to the General Partner and the partners will realize ordinary income to the extent of debt forgiveness. When the Partnership receives regulatory approval from HUD for its sale of Colony, the Partnership will dissolve. Since the ultimate dissolution is subject to the final sale of Colony, which is contingent upon HUD approval, no adjustments have been made to the accompanying financial statements to reflect the potential impact of liquidation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

        In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46"), an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, " Consolidated Financial Stements," which requires the consolidation by a business enterprise of variable interest entities if the business enterprise is the primary beneficiary. FIN 46 was effective January 31, 2003 for the Partnership with respect to interests in variable interest entities obtained after that date. With respect to interests in variable interest entities existing prior to February 1, 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), which extends the effective date of FIN 46 to the interim period ending March 31, 2004. The Partnership currently does not believe it will be required to consolidate any material interests in variable interest entities.

Item 7A.        Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

        The Partnership is exposed to interest rate risk related to changes in fair value on its fixed rate debt. As of December 31, 2003, the partnership had $3,940,854 of principal and accrued interest on a fixed rate note bearing interest at 11% (See Note E to the Financial statements).

Item 8.        Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

        Financial statements of the Registrant are filed herewith (See Item 15(a)1). The supplementary financial information specified by Item 302 of Regulation S-K is not applicable.

Item 9.       Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and  Financial Disclosure.

        None.

Item 9A.        Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

        The management of the General Partner including Mr. Douglas L. Kelly as President and Mr. Joseph G. Porter as Vice President have evaluated the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures. Under rules promulgated by the SEC, disclosure controls and procedures are defined as those "controls or other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports filed or submitted by it under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms." Based on the evaluation of the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures, it was determined that such controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2003.

        Further, there were no significant changes in the internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls after December 31, 2003.

The Committee may also approve certain on-going non-audit services not previously approved in the limited circumstances provided for in the SEC rules. All services performed by the independent auditor were pre-approved.

        Individual Project Partnerships retain their own independent auditors. Project Partnership independent auditors are not included in the Committee's policy relating to the engagement of the Registrant's independent auditors.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Partners of
Gulledge Realty Investors II:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Gulledge Realty Investors II (a limited Partnership) (the "Partnership") as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related statements of operations, changes in partners' deficit and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership, a majority owned Limited Partnership ("the Project Partnership"), the Partnership's investment in which is accounted for by use of the equity method. The Partnership's investment in the Project Partnership's net assets of $0 and $0 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and its share of Project Partnership's net income of $0, $0 and $32,323 for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003 are included in the accompanying financial statements. The financial statements of the Project Partnership were audited by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to amounts included for such Project Partnership is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the reports of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Gulledge Realty Investors II as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note A to the financial statements, subject to regulatory approval from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Partnership is in the process of selling Colony Place Associates, Ltd. ("Colony") the sole remaining Project Partnership. Once approval is obtained and Colony is sold, the Partnership intends to liquidate its assets and liabilities and dissolve.

Independent Auditors' Report

S2100-020

To The Partners
Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership, Project No. 071-11069, a limited partnership, as of December 31, 2003 and the related statements of profit and loss, partners' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership as of December 31, 2003 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated January 29, 2004 on our consideration of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's internal control and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grants. Those reports are an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be read in conjunction with this report in considering the results of our audit. Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplementary information (shown on Pages 13 through 15) is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

GULLEDGE REALTY INVESTORS II
(A Virginia Limited Partnership)

Notes To Financial Statements
Three Years Ended December 31, 2003

 

Note A           Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Partnership Organization

Gulledge Realty Investors II (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership organized on December 1, 1983 under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia for the purpose of acquiring limited partner interests in real estate limited partnerships ("Project Partnerships"). At December 31, 2003, these Project Partnerships include Colony Place Associates, Ltd. ("Colony") and Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership ("Hawthorn"). Hawthorn was sold in January 2004 (see Note F). The Project Partnerships previously included Olympic Housing Limited Partnership ("Olympic") which assets were sold in April 2003, Country Oaks Apartments Limited Partnership ("Country Oaks") which limited partner interests were sold in December 2003 and Pine West, Ltd., ("Pine West") and Rancho Vista Associates ("Rancho Vista"), which limited partner interests were sold in 2001. Each of the remaining Project Partnerships is an operating real estate project which receives mortgage interest subsidies and/or rental assistance from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The Registrant commenced operations in March 1984. GULL-AGE Properties, Inc. ("GAP") is the General Partner of the Partnership. GAP is an indirectly owned subsidiary of A.G. Edwards, Inc.

The Partnership owns 100% of the limited partner interests in the Project Partnerships, which represents 99.0% and 99.0% of the total ownership interests in Colony and Hawthorn, respectively. GULL-AGE Realty Advisors, Inc., ("GARA") an entity related to GAP, is the General Partner or the agent for the General Partner or Special General Partner of Colony and Hawthorn. GARA owns or controls through its agency agreement .10% and .01% of Colony and Hawthorn, respectively. The remaining partnership interests of the Project Partnerships are owned by unrelated individuals or entities.

In January 2004, the Partnership completed the sale of Hawthorn (See Note F). Absent Hawthorn, the Partnership’s sole remaining project partnership is Colony. In 2003, the Partnership entered into an agreement with a third-party purchaser to sell the limited partner interests in Colony. The ability to sell the Partnership’s limited partner interests in Colony, i.e., the Project Partnership, is limited by the overall market conditions in the geographic area where the Project operates and, potentially, the ability of the Project to qualify for Low Income Housing Tax Credits and regulatory approval from HUD. The Partnership’s limited partner interest in Colony is pledged as collateral in connection with a promissory note issued by Colony (See Note E). Therefore, the Partnership must also consider the outstanding balance of the note and negotiate a reduced payoff on the note.

Due to the sales of Hawthorn and Country Oaks, the Partnership will no longer have a reliable source of operating cash, as Colony, its sole remaining project partnership, has not made a significant distribution to the Partnership since its purchase. Additionally, the sale of Colony is not expected to provide any proceeds to the Partnership. Also, as a result of the sale of Hawthorn, the Partnership will have no future obligations under the note payable agreement including interest payments and annual consulting fees of $19,000 to GAP and $25,000 to the noteholder. Given the aforementioned sales and the pending sale of Colony, the Partnership will have limited operations going forward. Accordingly, the Partnership will not have sufficient cash to pay the liability to the General Partner, of approximately $997,000. To the extent existing cash balances are not sufficient, the Partnership will be unable to pay the liability to the General Partner and the partners will realize ordinary income to the extent of debt forgiveness. When the Partnership receives regulatory approval from HUD for its sale of Colony, the Partnership will dissolve. Since the ultimate dissolution is subject to the final sale of Colony, which is contingent upon HUD approval, no adjustments have been made to the accompanying financial statements to reflect the potential impact of liquidation.

Partner's Activities

The financial statements include only those assets, liabilities, and results of operations which relate to the business of the Partnership and do not include any assets, liabilities, or operating results attributable to the partners' individual activities.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Partnership considers interest bearing money market account balances to be cash equivalents.

Investment in Project Partnerships

The investment in Project Partnerships is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, investments are reflected at cost, adjusted for the Partnership's share of the Project Partnerships' income or loss. The Partnership is under no obligation to contribute additional capital, or to lend monies necessary to fund cash flow deficiencies of the Project Partnerships, because the Partnership is a limited partner in such partnerships. The investment account for a Project Partnership will not be reduced below zero because the Partnership is not liable for Project Partnership losses in excess of such investment. Any distributions received from the Project Partnerships subsequent to reducing the investment account to zero, will be recognized as income in the year received.

Income Taxes

No provision has been made for current or deferred income taxes since they are the responsibility of each partner. Profits (or gains) and losses of the Partnership are allocated to the partners in accordance with the partnership agreement.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 were equal to the Partnership net loss.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimated.

Segment Reporting

The Partnership's principal line of business is investing in Project Partnerships that own and operate low-income housing Projects that are financed and/or operated under federal or state housing assistance programs. Management believes that the Partnership operates in one business segment.

Reclassifications

Where appropriate, prior years' financial information has been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46"), an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements", which requires the consolidation by a business enterprise of variable interest entities if the business enterprise is the primary beneficiary. FIN 46 was effective January 31, 2003, for the Partnership with respect to interests in variable interest entities obtained after that date. With respect to interests in variable interest entities existing prior to February 1, 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), which extends the effective date of FIN 46 to the interim period ending March 31, 2004. The Partnership currently does not believe it will be required to consolidate any material interests in variable interest entities.

Note B           Partners' Deficit

Profits and losses of the Partnership are allocated pro-rata to the partners in accordance with their interest as follows:

General partner (131 units)

    1.1%

Special limited partners (225 units)

    1.9

Investor limited partners (11,458 units)

  97.0

 

100.0%

Upon dissolution and termination of the Partnership, the net proceeds resulting from the sale of Partnership assets are first used to pay all debts and liabilities of the Partnership; next, to repay capital contributions of the partners less any prior cash distributions from capital proceeds; then, to the payment of a cumulative disposition fee to the General Partner, with any remaining funds allocated as follows:

General partner

    4.0%

Special limited partners

    6.0

Investor limited partners

  90.0

 

100.0%

In the event that net operating revenues, as defined, are realized during any fiscal year, an annual noncumulative program management fee of up to $59,250 is payable to the managing General Partner. The fee represents compensation for maintaining the Partnership's books, records and accounts per the Partnership agreement. The amount of the program management fee plus the asset management fee accrued each year shall not exceed .5% of invested assets, as defined in the Partnership's Limited Partnership Agreement (the "Agreement").

Upon the distribution of capital proceeds by the Partnership, the General Partner is authorized to receive a cumulative disposition fee equal to 1% of the capital proceeds generated through the sale of Project Partnerships to the extent such proceeds exceed priority payments as defined in the Agreement.

Note C           Reconciliation of Operations: Financial Statement Versus Income Tax Return

The financial statement (loss)/income is reconciled to income tax loss for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001 as follows:

Amounts due in accordance with the Agreement at December 31, 2003 and 2002 are $978,040 and $889,460, respectively. The Partnership also pays annual consulting fees of $19,000 out of the distributions from Hawthorn to GAP. Amounts due for consulting fees at December 31, 2003 and 2002 are $19,000.

The Partnership's limited partner interests in Colony serve as collateral in connection with a promissory note issued by Colony as described below:

Project Partnership
         (Debtor)               

Promissory Note,
Including Accrued Interest


Payment Terms

     

Colony

$1,021,355

9% interest due annually.

   

Principal plus unpaid interest

   

due on November 30, 1999.

   

Note is currently in default.

     

Colony's promissory note was originally due December 31, 1995, but was extended until June 30, 1997, while a sale of the project was being pursued under the Low Income Housing Preservation and Resident Homeownership Act ("LIHPRHA"). LIHPRHA was a program administered by the Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD"). Unfortunately, funds are no longer available under the LIHPRHA program. The promissory note had been extended to November 30, 1999, while the General Partner attempted to locate a buyer for the project. A buyer was not located before November 30, 1999. This note is currently in default. Therefore, the Colony noteholder may demand payment and Colony may revert to its noteholder at any time. In 2003, the Registrant entered into an agreement, subject to HUD approval, with a third-party purchaser to sell the limited partner interest in Colony. Under the terms of the agreement, the purchaser will acquire all of the assets as well as assume all of the liabilities of Colony, including the primary mortgage and operating liabilities, except for the secondary note. Immediately prior to the sale, $225,000 of proceeds will be used to make a negotiated reduced payoff on the secondary note, and approximately $10,000 will be used to pay expenses of the sale.

Hawthorn refinanced its mortgage during 1997. Proceeds from the refinancing were used to make a partial payment on the promissory note which had come due December 31, 1996. The remaining balance of the promissory note was renegotiated. The mortgage was refinanced under HUD regulations which limit the amount of debt that can be collateralized by the project. Accordingly, HUD would not approve the mortgage refinance unless the promissory note was no longer a liability of the project. Therefore, the General Partner of the Partnership and the noteholder agreed to have the promissory note assumed by the Partnership. The promissory note is now collateralized by the Partnership's interest in Hawthorn. Principal and interest are only payable from surplus cash received by the Partnership from Hawthorn. The Partnership is not required to make any payments from surplus cash it receives from any other project. Under the terms of the promissory note, the Partnership pays an annual consulting fee of $19,000 to GAP and $25,000 to the noteholder. The consulting fees are only payable out of distributions from Hawthorn.

The promissory note plus accrued interest totaled $3,940,854 at December 31, 2003, and bears simple interest at a rate of 11%. The note bore simple interest at a rate of 9% until the note expired on June 30, 2002, at which time, the interest rate increased to 11%.

In conjunction with assuming the liability for the promissory note, the Partnership recorded a corresponding investment in Hawthorn. The investment account was then reduced by previously unrecorded losses of Hawthorn in accordance with the equity method of accounting. The investment account was adjusted in subsequent years by the Partnership's share of any additional income or loss from Hawthorn. This investment account was also reduced when the Partnership received distributions from Hawthorn. In 2003 and 2002, the Partnership did not recognize equity in income of Project Partnerships from Hawthorn, because the beginning investment balance was zero. In 2001, the Partnership's share of income and distributions from Hawthorn were $105,970 and $373,481, respectively. Income of $32,323 was recorded as equity in income of Project Partnerships in the Statements of Operations, prior to receipt of the distribution. The distribution was recorded as a reduction of investment in Project Partnerships of $286,569 on the Balance Sheet and distributions from zero-basis Project Partnerships of $86,912 in the Statement of Operations.

During the fourth quarter of 2003, the limited partnership interests in Country Oaks were sold to GAP. The gain on the sale of the interest of $76,000 is included in gain on sale of Project Partnerships in the Statement of Operations. The proceeds from the sale of $26,000 were used to make a payment on the amount owed to the General Partner. The remaining gain of $50,000 was due to the write-off of a contribution payable to Country Oaks. The partners of the Partnership will recognize capital gains on the sale of approximately $834,000.

In April 2003, the Partnership sold the assets of Olympic. As part of the terms of the sale, the purchaser assumed the primary mortgage on Olympic and all of the operating liabilities. A reduced payoff was negotiated on a secondary note which was collateralized by the Partnership's ownership interest in Olympic. The Partnership did not receive a distribution from the sale as all proceeds were used to pay expenses related to the sale. The Partnership did not recognize a gain or loss on the sale in the Statement of Operations as no proceeds were received and the Partnership had a zero basis in Olympic. As a result of the sale, partners of the Partnership will realize tax consequences including capital gains of approximately $3,500,000 and ordinary income to the extent of the reduced payoff on the secondary note in the approximate amount of $8,400,000.

The Partnership's limited partner interests in Pine West and Rancho Vista were sold in 2001. The gains on the sale of the interests are included in gain on sale of Project Partnerships in the Statement of Operations.

Notwithstanding the balances owed on the defaulted notes, none of the Project Partnerships are experiencing significant operating cash flow deficiencies.

Note F           Subsequent Events

In January 2004, the Registrant sold the assets of Hawthorn. The Registrant recognized a gain on the sale of $3,401,551. Under the terms of the sale, the purchaser assumed the primary mortgage and all of the operating liabilities of Hawthorn. Proceeds of $3,301,551 from the sale were used to make a partial payment on the note payable which was collateralized by the Partnership's limited partner interests in Hawthorn. The remaining proceeds of $100,000 were used to pay Partnership liabilities owed to the General Partner per the Partnership Agreement. The remaining balance of the note payable, including accrued interest to the date of the sale, of $597,363 was forgiven as part of the terms of a negotiated reduced payoff entered into prior to the sale.

As a result of the sale of the assets of Hawthorn, capital gains of approximately $6,100,000 and ordinary income, to the extent of the debt forgiveness on the note payable, will be allocated to the partners based on the terms of the partnership agreement.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2003


1. Organization And Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization (S3100-010)

Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership (the Partnership) was organized as a limited partnership during June 1984 for the purpose of constructing and operating a rental housing project (the Project) pursuant to a regulatory agreement with the Illinois Housing Development Authority (IHDA). In November 1997, the Project was refinanced under Section 223(f) of the National Housing Act. The Project consists of 176 units located in Woodridge, Illinois, operating under the name of Hawthorn Ridge Apartments. The Project is regulated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and IHDA, as administrator of the housing assistance contract, as to rent charges and operating methods.

The regulatory agreement with HUD limits annual distributions of net operating receipts to surplus cash. At December 31, 2003, there was surplus cash in the amount of $137,570 available for distribution.

Significant Accounting Policies (S3100-040)

The following significant accounting policies have been followed in the preparation of the financial statements:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Partnership considers all temporary cash investments as cash equivalents.  These temporary cash investments are securities held for cash management purposes, having maturities of three months or less.

The Partnership deposits its cash in financial institutions. At times, deposits exceed federally insured limits. The Partnership has not experienced losses in such accounts.

Tenant accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. Based on management's assessment of the credit history with tenants having outstanding balances and current relationships with them, it has concluded that realization losses on balances outstanding at year end would be immaterial.

Rental property is carried as cost. Depreciation is provided using straight-line and accelerated methods over estimated useful lives ranging from 5 to 40 years.

The replacement reserve can only be used for improvements to buildings upon prior approval of HUD.

Intangible assets consist of deferred loan costs of $506,303, incurred for obtaining the HUD insured mortgage loan, which are being amortized using the straight‑line method over the life of the mortgage loan. Accumulated amortization amounted to $88,441 at December 31, 2003.

Income or loss of the Partnership is allocated .01 % to the general partner and 99.99 % to the limited partners. No income tax provision has been included in the financial statements since income or loss of the Partnership is required to be reported by the partners on their respective income tax returns.

2. Mortgage Payable (S3100-050)

The mortgage payable is insured by the Department of Housing and Urban Development and collateralized by a deed of trust on the rental property. The mortgage is payable to P/R Mortgage & Investment Corp. and bears interest at the rate of 6.6% per annum. Principal and interest are payable by the Partnership in monthly installments of $29,940 through December 2032.

Under agreements with the mortgage lender and HUD, the Partnership is required to make monthly escrow deposits for property taxes, insurance, mortgage insurance and replacement of Project assets.

The scheduled maturities of the mortgage payable at December 31, 2003 are as follows: (S3100-x1x)

3. Commitments (S3100-x3x) (S3100-240)

The Partnership has entered into a regulatory agreement with HUD which regulates, among other things, the rents which may be charged for apartment units in the Project, prohibits the sale of the Project without HUD consent, limits the annual distribution of cash flow to the partners and otherwise regulates the relationship between the Partnership and HUD.

The Department of Housing and Urban Development, through a program administered by the Illinois Housing Development Authority, has contracted with the Partnership, effective December 1976, under Section 8 of the National Housing Act of 1968, to make housing assistance payments to the Project on behalf of qualified tenants. The term of the agreement is 5 years with renewal options for terms not to exceed 40 years.

4. Related-Party Transactions (S3100-200)

The Project is managed by Alan A. Fox Real Estate Investment and Management Co., Inc., an affiliate of the special limited partner. The management contract provides for a management fee of 6% of gross collections. Total fees incurred for 2003 were $90,825. At December 31, 2003, management fees of $7,548 are payable to Alan A. Fox Real Estate Investment and Management Co., Inc. (S3100‑230)

Alan A. Fox Real Estate Investment and Management Co., Inc. also receives a monthly accounting services fee of $3.50 per unit. This fee is charged for services which are not included in the monthly management fee. Total fees incurred during 2003 were $7,392. At December 31, 2003, fees of $616 are payable to Alan A. Fox Real Estate Investment and Management Co., Inc.

S3100-210 Company Name Alan A. Fox Real Estate Investment and Management Co, Inc.

5. Subsequent Event (S3100-x3x) (S3100-240)

On June 6, 2003, the Partnership entered into an agreement to sell its operating assets. Effective January 21, 2004, the operating assets, including property and equipment, were sold in exchange for cash of approximately $3,434,000 plus assumption of the mortgage payable having a principal balance of approximately $4,632,000 on the date of sale.

S2200-020 Independent Auditors' Report On Internal

Control (Combined Report Applicable To Internal

Control Over Financial Reporting Based On An Audit

Of Financial Statements And Internal Control

Over Compliance For HUD-Assisted Programs)

To The Partners

Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership

We have audited the financial statements of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership as of and for the year ended December 31, 2003, and have issued our report thereon dated January 29, 2004. We have also audited Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's compliance with requirements applicable to HUD-assisted programs and have issued our reports thereon dated January 29, 2004.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and the Consolidated Audit Guide for Audits of HUD Programs (the Guide) issued by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Office of the Inspector General. Those standards and the Guide require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and about whether Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership complied with laws and regulations, noncompliance with which would be material to a HUD-assisted program.

The management of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control. In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's internal control over financial reporting and its internal control over compliance with requirements that would have a direct and material effect on a major HUD-assisted program in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements and on compliance and not to provide assurance on the internal control over financial reporting and the internal control over compliance.


Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily disclose all matters in internal control that might be material weaknesses. A material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements that would be material in relation to the financial statements or that noncompliance with applicable requirements of laws and regulations that would be material in relation to a major HUD-assisted program may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. We noted no matters involving internal control and its operation that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of management, the Illinois Housing Development Authority and the Department of Housing and Urban Development and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

S2300-020 Independent Auditors' Report On Compliance

With Specific Requirements Applicable To Major HUD Programs

To The Partners

Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership

We have audited Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's compliance with the specific program requirements governing federal financial reports, mortgage status, replacement reserve, distributions to owners, cash receipts and disbursements, tenant application, eligibility and recertification, and management functions that are applicable to each of its major HUD-assisted programs for the year ended December 31, 2003. The management of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership is responsible for compliance with those requirements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance with those requirements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and the Consolidated Audit Guide for Audits of HUD Programs (the Guide) issued by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Office of Inspector General. Those standards and the Guide require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether material noncompliance with the requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on a major HUD-assisted program occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our audit does not provide a legal determination of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's compliance with those requirements.


In our opinion, Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership complied, in all material respects, with the requirements referred to above that are applicable to each of its major HUD-assisted programs for the year ended December 31, 2003.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of management, the Illinois Housing Development Authority and the Department of Housing and Urban Development and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

S2500-020 Independent Auditors' Report On

Compliance With Specific Requirements

Applicable To Fair Housing And Non-Discrimination

To The Partners

Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership

We have applied procedures to test Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's compliance with the Fair Housing and Non-Discrimination requirements applicable to its HUD-assisted programs for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Our procedures were limited to the applicable compliance requirement described by the Consolidated Audit Guide for Audits of HUD Programs (the Guide) issued by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Office of Inspector General. Our procedures were substantially less in scope than an audit, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion on Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's compliance with the Fair Housing and Non-Discrimination requirements. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance that are required to be reported herein under the Guide.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of management, the Illinois Housing Development Authority and the Department of Housing and Urban Development and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

S2100-020 Independent Auditors' Report

To The Partners
Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership, Project No. 071-11069, a limited partnership, as of December 31, 2002 and the related statements of profit and loss, partners' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership as of December 31, 2002 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our reports dated January 28, 2003 on our consideration of Hawthorn Housing Limited partnership's internal control and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grants. Those reports are an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be read in conjunction with this report in considering the results of our audit.

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplementary information (shown on Pages 13 through 15) is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2002

 

1. Organization And Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization (S3100-010)

Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership (the Partnership) was organized as a limited partnership during June 1984 for the purpose of constructing and operating a rental housing project (the Project) pursuant to a regulatory agreement with Illinois Housing Development Authority (IHDA). In November 1997, the Project was refinanced under Section 223(f) of the National Housing Act. The Project consists of 176 units located in Woodridge, Illinois, operating under the name of Hawthorn Ridge Apartments. The Project is regulated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and IHDA, as administrator of the housing assistance contract, as to rent charges and operating methods.

The regulatory agreement with HUD limits annual distributions of net operating receipts to surplus cash. At December 31, 2002, there was surplus cash in the amount of $252,560 available for distribution.

Significant Accounting Policies (S3100-040)

The following significant accounting policies have been followed in the preparation of the financial statements:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Partnership considers all temporary cash investments as cash equivalents. These temporary cash investments are securities held for cash management purposes, having maturities of three months or less.

The Partnership deposits its cash in financial institutions. At times, deposits exceed federally insured limits. The Partnership has not experienced losses in such accounts.

Tenant accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. Management provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated collection losses that will be incurred in collection of all receivables. The estimated losses are based on a review of the current status of the existing receivables. No allowance for doubtful accounts was provided for at December 31, 2002 as none was deemed necessary by management.

Rental property is carried as cost. Depreciation is provided using straight-line and accelerated methods over estimated useful lives ranging from 5 to 40 years.

The replacement reserve can only be used for improvements to buildings upon prior approval of HUD.

Deferred loan costs of $506,303 consist of fees for obtaining the HUD insured mortgage loan and are being amortized using the straight-line method over the life of the mortgage loan. Accumulated amortization amounted to $74,041 at December 31, 2002.

Income or loss of the Partnership is allocated .01% to the general partner and 99.99% to the limited partners. No income tax provision has been included in the financial statements since income or loss of the Partnership is required to be reported by the partners on their respective income tax returns.

2. Mortgage Payable (S3100-050)

The mortgage payable is insured by the Department of Housing and Urban Development and collateralized by a deed of trust on the rental property. The mortgage is payable to P/R Mortgage & Investment Corp. and bears interest at the rate of 6.6% per annum. Principal and interest are payable by the Partnership in monthly installments of $29,940 through December 2032.

Under agreements with the mortgage lender and HUD, the Partnership is required to make monthly escrow deposits for property taxes, insurance, mortgage insurance and replacement of Project assets.

The scheduled maturities of the mortgage payable at December 31, 2002 are as follows: (S3100-x1x)

3. Commitments (S3100-x3x) (S3100-240)

The Partnership has entered into a regulatory agreement with HUD which regulates, among other things, the rents which may be charged for apartment units in the Project, prohibits the sale of the project without HUD consent, limits the annual distribution of cash flow to the partners and otherwise regulates the relationship between the Partnership and HUD.

The Department of Housing and Urban Development, through a program administered by the Illinois Housing Development Authority, has contracted with the Partnership, effective December 1976, under Section 8 of the National Housing Act of 1968, to make housing assistance payments to the project on behalf of qualified tenants. The term of the agreement is five years with renewal options for terms not to exceed 40 years.

4. Related Party Transactions (S3100-200)

The Project is managed by Alan Fox Real Estate Investment and Management Co., Inc., an affiliate of the special limited partner. The management contract provides for a management fee of 5.4% of gross collections. The management contract was amended effective July 1, 2002 to provide for a management fee of 6% of gross collections. Total fees incurred for 2002 were $88,233. At December 31, 2002, management fees of $7,481 are payable to Alan A. Fox Real Estate Investment and Management Co., Inc. (53100-230).

Alan A. Fox Real Estate Investment and Management Co., Inc. also receives a monthly accounting services fee of $3.50 per unit. This fee is charged for services which are not included in the monthly management fee. Total fees incurred during 2002 were $7,392. At December 31, 2002, fees of $616 are payable to Alan A. Fox Real Estate Investment and Management Co., Inc.

S2200-020 Independent Auditors' Report On Internal Control

(Combined Report Applicable To Internal Control Over
Financial Reporting Based On An Audit Of Financial
Statements And Internal Control Over Compliance For
HUD-Assisted Programs)

To The Partners
Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership

We have audited the financial statements of Hawthorne Housing Limited Partnership as of and for the year ended December 31, 2002, and have issued our report thereon dated January 28, 2003. We have also audited Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's compliance with requirements applicable to HUD-assisted programs and have issued our reports thereon dated January 28, 2003.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and the Consolidated Audit Guide for Audits of HUD Programs (the Guide) issued by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Office of the Inspector General. Those standards and the Guide require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and about whether Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership complied with laws and regulations, noncompliance with which would be material to a major HUD-assisted program.

The management of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control. In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's internal control over financial reporting and its internal control over compliance with requirements that would have a direct and material effect on a major HUD-assisted program in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements and on compliance and not to provide assurance on the internal control over financial reporting and the internal control over compliance.

To the Partners
Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership

Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily disclose all matters in internal control that might be material weaknesses. A material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements that would be material in relation to the financial statements or that noncompliance with applicable requirements of laws and regulations that would be material in relation to a major HUD-assisted program may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. We noted no matters involving internal control and its operation that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of management, the Illinois Housing Development Authority and the Department of Housing and Urban Development and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

Independent Auditors' Report On Compliance With
Specific Requirements Applicable To Major HUD Programs

 

To The Partners
Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership

We have audited Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's compliance with the specific program requirements governing federal financial reports, mortgage status, replacement reserve, security deposits, cash receipts and disbursements, tenant application, eligibility and recertification, and management functions that are applicable to each of its major HUD-assisted programs for the year ended December 31, 2002. The management of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership is responsible for compliance with those requirements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance with those requirements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and the Consolidated Audit Guide for Audits of HUD Programs (the Guide) issued by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Office of Inspector General. Those standards and the Guide require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether material noncompliance with the requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on a major HUD-assisted program occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our audit does not provide a legal determination of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's compliance with those requirements.

 

 

 

 

To The Partners
Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership

In our opinion, Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership complied, in all material respects, with the requirements described above that are applicable to each of its major HUD-assisted programs for the year ended December 31, 2002.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of management, the Illinois Housing Development Authority and the Department of Housing and Urban Development and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

Independent Auditors' Report On Compliance With Specific
Requirements Applicable To Fair Housing and Non-Discrimination

 

To The Partners
Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership

We have applied procedures to test Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's compliance with Fair Housing and Non-Discrimination requirements applicable to its HUD-assisted programs for the year ended December 31, 2002.

Our procedures were limited to the applicable compliance requirement described by the Consolidated Audit Guide for Audits of HUD Programs (the Guide) issued by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Office of Inspector General. Our procedures were substantially less in scope than an audit, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion on Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's compliance with Fair Housing and Non-Discrimination requirements. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance that are required to be reported herein under the Guide.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of management, the Illinois Housing Development Authority and the Department of Housing and Urban Development and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

S2100-020 Independent Auditors' Report

To The Partners
Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership, Project No. 071-11069, a limited partnership, as of December 31, 2001 and the related statements of profit and loss, partners' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership as of December 31, 2001 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards and the Consolidated Audit Guide for Audits of HUD Programs issued by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, we have also issued a report dated January 29, 2002 on our consideration of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's internal control and reports dated January 29, 2002 on its compliance with specific requirements applicable to major HUD programs and specific requirements applicable to Fair Housing and Non-Discrimination. Those reports are an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be read in conjunction with this report in considering the results of our audit.

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplementary information (shown on Pages 14 through 16) is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2001

 

1. Organization And Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization (S3100-010)

Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership (the Partnership) was organized as a limited partnership during June 1984 for the purpose of constructing and operating a rental housing project (the Project) pursuant to a regulatory agreement with Illinois Housing Development Authority (IHDA). In November 1997, the Project was refinanced under Section 223(f) of the National Housing Act. The Project consists of 176 units located in Woodridge, Illinois, operating under the name of Hawthorn Ridge Apartments. The Project is regulated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the Illinois Housing Development Authority (IHDA), as administrator of the housing assistance contract, as to rent charges and operating methods.

The regulatory agreement with HUD limits annual distributions of net operating receipts to surplus cash. At December 31, 2001, there was "surplus cash" in the amount of $403,347 available for distribution.

Significant Accounting Policies (S3100-040)

The following significant accounting policies have been followed in the preparation of the financial statements:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Partnership considers all temporary cash investments as cash equivalents. These temporary cash investments are securities held for cash management purposes, having maturities of three months or less.

The Partnership deposits its cash in financial institutions. At times, deposits exceed federally insured limits. The Partnership has not experienced losses in such accounts.

The Partnership provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated collection losses that will be incurred in collection of all receivables. The estimated losses are based on a review of the current status of the existing receivables. No allowance for doubtful accounts was provided for at December 31, 2001 as none was deemed necessary by management.

Rental property is carried as cost. Depreciation is provided using straight-line and accelerated methods over estimated useful lives ranging from five to forty years.

The replacement reserve can only be used for improvements to buildings upon prior approval of HUD.

Deferred loan costs of $506,303 consist of fees for obtaining the HUD insured mortgage loan and are being amortized using the straight-line method over the life of the mortgage loan. Accumulated amortization amounted to $59,641 at December 31, 2001.

Income or loss of the Partnership is allocated .01% to the general partner and 99.99% to the limited partners. No income tax provision has been included in the financial statements since income or loss of the Partnership is required to be reported by the partners on their respective income tax returns.

2. Mortgage Payable (S3100-050)

The mortgage payable is insured by the Department of Housing and Urban Development and collateralized by a deed of trust on the rental property. The mortgage is payable to P/R Mortgage & Investment Corp. and bears interest at the rate of 6.6% per annum. Principal and interest are payable by the Partnership in monthly installments of $29,940 through December 2032.

Under agreements with the mortgage lender and HUD, the Partnership is required to make monthly escrow deposits for property taxes, insurance, mortgage insurance and replacement of Project assets.

The scheduled maturities of the mortgage payable at December 31, 2001 are as follows: (S3100-x1x)

3. Commitments (S3100-x3x) (S3100-240)

The Partnership has entered into a regulatory agreement with HUD which regulates, among other things, the rents which may be charged for apartment units in the Project, prohibits the sale of the project without HUD consent, limits the annual distribution of cash flow to the partners and otherwise regulates the relationship between the Partnership and HUD.

The Department of Housing and Urban Development, through a program administered by the Illinois Housing Development Authority, has contracted with the Partnership, effective December 1976, under Section 8 of the National Housing Act of 1968, to make housing assistance payments to the project on behalf of qualified tenants. The term of the agreement is five years with renewal options for terms not to exceed forty years.

4. Related Party Transactions (S3100-200)

The Project is managed by Alan Fox Real Estate Investment and Management Co., Inc., an affiliate of the special limited partner. The management contract provides for a management fee of 5.4% of gross collections. Total fees incurred for 2001 were $85,820. At December 31, 2001, management fees of $7,272 are payable to Alan A. Fox Real Estate Investment and Management Co., Inc. (53100-230).

Alan A. Fox Real Estate Investment and Management Co., Inc. also receives a monthly accounting services fee of $3.50 per unit. This fee is charged for services which are not included in the monthly management fee. Total fees incurred during 2001 were $7,392. At December 31, 2001, fees of $616 are payable to Alan A. Fox Real Estate Investment and Management Co., Inc.

Independent Auditors' Report On Internal Control

To The Partners
Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership

We have audited the financial statements of Hawthorne Housing Limited Partnership as of and for the year ended December 31, 2001, and have issued our report thereon dated January 29, 2002. We have also audited Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's compliance with requirements applicable to HUD-assisted programs and have issued our reports thereon dated January 29, 2002.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and the Consolidated Audit Guide for Audits of HUD Programs (the Guide) issued by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Office of the Inspector General. Those standards and the Guide require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and about whether Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership complied with laws and regulations, noncompliance with which would be material to a major HUD-assisted program.

The management of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of controls. The objectives of internal control are to provide management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, that transactions are executed in accordance with management authorization and recorded properly to permit the preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that HUD-assisted programs are managed in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Because of inherent limitations in any internal control, errors, irregularities or instances of noncompliance may nevertheless occur and not be detected. Also, projection of any evaluation of internal control to future periods is subject to the risk that procedures may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the effectiveness of the design and operation of controls may deteriorate.

To the Partners
Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership

In planning and performing our audits, we obtained an understanding of the design of relevant controls and determined whether they had been placed in operation, and we assessed control risk in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership and on its compliance with specific requirements applicable to its major HUD-assisted programs and to report on internal control in accordance with the provisions of the Guide and not to provide any assurance on internal control.

We performed tests of controls, as required by the Guide, to evaluate the effectiveness of the design and operation of controls that we considered relevant to preventing or detecting material noncompliance with specific requirements applicable to Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's major HUD-assisted programs. Our procedures were less in scope than would be necessary to render an opinion on internal control. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily disclose all matters in internal control that might be material weaknesses under standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that errors or irregularities in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements or that noncompliance with laws and regulations that would be material to a HUD-assisted program may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. We noted no matters involving internal control and its operation that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of management, the Illinois Housing Development Authority and the Department of Housing and Urban Development and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

Independent Auditors' Report On Compliance With

Specific Requirements Applicable To Major HUD Programs

 

To The Partners
Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership

We have audited the financial statements of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership as of and for the year ended December 31, 2001 and have issued our report thereon dated January 29, 2002. We have also audited Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's compliance with the specific program requirements governing federal financial reports, mortgage status, replacement reserve, security deposits, cash receipts and disbursements, tenant application, eligibility and recertification, and management functions that are applicable to each of its major HUD-assisted programs for the year ended December 31, 2001. The management of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership is responsible for compliance with those requirements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance with those requirements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit of compliance with those requirements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and the Consolidated Audit Guide for Audits of HUD Programs (the Guide) issued by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Office of Inspector General. Those standards and the Guide require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether material noncompliance with the requirements referred to above occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's compliance with those requirements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The results of our audit procedures disclosed an immaterial instance of noncompliance with the requirements referred to above, which is described in the accompanying Schedule of Financings and Questioned Costs. We considered this instance of noncompliance in forming our opinion on compliance, which is expressed in the following paragraph.

In our opinion, Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership complied, in all material respects, with the requirements described above that are applicable to each of its major HUD-assisted programs for the year ended December 31, 2001.

Independent Auditors' Report On Compliance With Specific
Requirements Applicable To Fair Housing and Non-Discrimination

 

To The Partners
Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership

We have audited the financial statements of Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership as of and for the year ended December 31, 2001, and have issued our report thereon dated January 29, 2002.

We have also applied procedures to test Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's compliance with Fair Housing and Non-Discrimination requirements applicable to its HUD-assisted programs for the year ended December 31, 2001.

Our procedures were limited to the applicable compliance requirement described by the Consolidated Audit Guide for Audits of HUD Programs (the Guide) issued by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Office of Inspector General. Our procedures were substantially less in scope than an audit, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion on Hawthorn Housing Limited Partnership's compliance with Fair Housing and Non-Discrimination requirements. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance that are required to be reported herein under the Guide.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of management, the Illinois Housing Development Authority and the Department of Housing and Urban Development and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
