NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
GENERAL
The information contained in the following notes to the financial
statements is condensed from that which would appear in the annual
financial statements; accordingly, the financial statements included
herein should be reviewed in conjunction with the financial statements
and related notes thereto contained in the Annual Report for the year
ended December 31, 1994 prepared by Real Estate Associates Limited VII
(the "Partnership."). National Partnership Investments Corp.
("NAPICO") is the corporate general partner of the Partnership.
Accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve greater
reliance on estimates than at year end. The results of operations for
the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the
results for the entire year.
In the opinion of the Partnership, the accompanying unaudited
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting primarily of
normal recurring accruals), necessary to present fairly the financial
position of the Partnership at June 30, 1995, and the results of
operations and changes in cash flows for the six months then ended.
METHOD OF ACCOUNTING FOR INVESTMENT IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS
The investment in limited partnerships is accounted for on the equity
method. Acquisition, selection and other costs related to the
acquisition of the projects were capitalized as part of the investment
account.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and bank certificates of
deposit.
SHORT TERM INVESTMENTS
Short term investments consist of bank certificates of deposit with
original maturities ranging from more than three months to twelve
months. The fair value of these securities, which have been
classified as held for sale, approximates their carrying value.
INCOME TAXES
No provision has been made for income taxes in the accompanying
financial statements since such taxes, if any, are the liability of
the individual partners.

NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS
The Partnership holds limited partnership interests in 32 limited
partnerships. In addition, the Partnership holds a general partner
interest in REA IV, NAPICO is also the general partner in REA IV. REA
IV, in turn, holds limited partner interests in 16 additional limited
partnerships. In total, therefore, the Partnership holds interests,
either directly or indirectly through REA IV, in 48 partnerships all
of which own residential rental projects consisting of 4,731 apartment
units. The mortgage loans of these projects are insured by various
governmental agencies.
The Partnership, as a limited partner, is entitled to between 98
percent and 99 percent of the profits and losses in the limited
partnerships it has invested in directly. The Partnership is also
entitled to 99 percent of the profits and losses of REA IV. REA IV
holds a 99 percent interest in each of the limited partnerships in
which it has invested.
Equity in losses of limited partnerships is recognized in the
financial statements until the limited partnership investment account
is reduced to a zero balance. Losses incurred after the limited
partnership investment account is reduced to zero are not recognized.
Distributions from the limited partnerships are accounted for as a
return of capital until the investment balance is reduced to zero.
Subsequent distributions received are recognized as income.
The following is a summary of the investment in limited partnerships
as of June 30, 1995:
Balance, beginning of period $19,757,594
Cash distributions recognized as a return of capital (495,884)
Advances to limited partnerships 72,000
Amortization of acquisition costs (38,000)
Equity in loss of limited partnerships (412,000)

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S ANALYSIS AND DISCUSSION OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Partnership's primary sources of funds include interest income
earned from investing available cash and distributions from limited
partnerships in which the Partnership has invested. It is not
expected that any of the local limited partnerships in which the
Partnership has invested will generate cash flow sufficient to provide
for distributions to limited partners in any material amount.
Certain of the Partnership's investments involved purchases of
partnership interests from partners who subsequently withdrew from the
operating partnership. The Partnership is obligated on non-recourse
notes payable, bearing interest at 9 1/2 percent, to the sellers of
the Partnership interests. The notes have principal maturity dates
ranging from December 1996 to December 2002 or upon sale or
refinancing of the underlying partnership properties. These
obligations are collateralized by the Partnership's investments in the
investee partnerships and are payable out of cash distributions from
the investee partnerships, as defined in the notes. Unpaid interest,
equal to $21,352,354 at June 30, 1995, is due at maturity of the
notes.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Partnership revenues consist primarily of interest income earned on
certificates of deposit and other temporary investment of funds not
requred for investment in local partnerships.
Operating expenses consist primarily of recurring general and
administrative expenses and professional fees for services rendered to
the Partnership. In addition, an annual Partnership management fee in
an amount equal to .5 percent of invested assets is payable to the
corporate general partner.
The Partnership accounts for its investments in the local limited
partnerships on the equity method, thereby adjusting its investment
balance by its proportionate share of the income or loss of the local
limited partnerships. Losses incurred after the limited partnership
account is reduced to zero are not recognized.
Distributions received from limited partnerships are recognized as
return of capital until the investment balance has been reduced to
zero or to a negative amount equal to future capital contributions
required. Subsequent distributions received are recognized as income.
Except for certificates of deposit and money market funds, the
Partnership's investments are entirely interests in other limited and
general partnerships owning government assisted projects. Available
cash is invested in money market funds and certificates of deposit
which provide interest income as reflected in the statement of
operations. These temporary investments can be easily converted to
cash to meet obligations as they arise. The Partnership intends to
continue investing available funds in this manner.
