DAVIDSON DIVERSIFIED REAL ESTATE II, L.P.


NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)


Note A - Basis of Presentation


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


Note B - Transactions with Affiliated Parties


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


Affiliates of the Managing General Partner receive 5% of gross receipts from all of the Partnership's properties for providing property management services. The Partnership paid to such affiliates approximately $184,000 and $167,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, which is included in operating expenses.  


An affiliate of the Managing General Partner charged the Partnership for reimbursement of accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately $140,000 and $132,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expenses and investment properties. The portion of these reimbursements included in investment properties for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 are fees related to construction management services provided by an affiliate of the Managing General Partner of approximately $42,000 and $33,000, respectively.


In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, an affiliate of the Managing General Partner advanced the Partnership approximately $174,000 and $25,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 to cover operational expenses. At June 30, 2006, the amount of the outstanding loans and accrued interest was approximately $5,513,000. Interest is charged at prime plus 1%, or 9.25% at June 30, 2006. Interest expense was approximately $383,000 and $291,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.  For the six months ended June 30, 2006 the Partnership made payments of approximately $3,366,000 of principal and $1,168,000 of accrued interest to an affiliate of the Managing General Partner from cash reserves and refinancing proceeds. There were no payments made during the six months ended June 30, 2005. An affiliate of the Managing General Partner is considering the remedies it can pursue including accelerating repayment of the outstanding loans it has made to the Partnership to cover capital expenditures, operational expenses and to assist in the refinancing of the mortgage encumbering Reflections Apartments.


The Partnership accrued a real estate commission due to the Managing General Partner of $48,000 upon the sale of Shoppes at River Rock during the year ended December 31, 1999. During 2002, the Partnership paid $30,000 of the amount to a third party as part of a settlement regarding brokerage services. Approximately $18,000 is accrued at June 30, 2006 and is included in other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Payment of the remaining accrued commission is subordinate to the limited partners receiving their original invested capital plus a cumulative non-compounded annual return of 8% on their adjusted invested capital.


The Partnership insures its properties up to certain limits through coverage provided by AIMCO which is generally self-insured for a portion of losses and liabilities related to workers compensation, property casualty, general liability and vehicle liability.  The Partnership insures its properties above the AIMCO limits through insurance policies obtained by AIMCO from insurers unaffiliated with the Managing General Partner.  During the six months ended June 30, 2006 the Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $209,000 for insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration.  Additional charges will be incurred by the Partnership during 2006 as other insurance policies renew later in the year.    The Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $108,000 for insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration during the year ended December 31, 2005.


Note C – Casualty Event


During April 2006 Reflections Apartments suffered significant damage to all of the property’s roofs as a result of hail and wind produced by tornadoes.  The current estimated cost to replace the roofs is approximately $600,000.  The Managing General Partner is working with the insurance company to finalize the estimated costs and insurance proceeds to be received.  It is currently estimated that insurance proceeds will cover the costs to replace the roofs.


Note D – Mortgage Refinancing


On May 31, 2006, the Partnership refinanced the mortgage encumbering one of its investment properties, The Trails Apartments.  The Partnership recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $526,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2006 due to the write off of unamortized loan costs and debt discounts.  The new mortgage loan, in the principal amount of $8,700,000 replaced the existing mortgage loan, which had an outstanding balance at the time of the refinancing of approximately $4,066,000. Closing costs of approximately $129,000 were capitalized and are included in other assets.  The new mortgage loan requires monthly payments of principal and interest of approximately $52,000, beginning on July 1, 2006 until the loan matures on June 1, 2016, with a fixed interest rate of 5.96% and a balloon payment of approximately $7,385,000 due at maturity. The Partnership is also required to comply with the terms of a repair agreement, which calls for approximately $186,000 of capital improvements and repairs to be made within one year.  Such capital improvements and repairs consist of exterior stair and wall repairs, parking and sidewalk repairs and additional foundation support to the clubhouse.  From May 31, 2006 through December 1, 2015 (the “Prepayment Premium Period”) the loan may be prepaid with the payment of a prepayment penalty, as defined in the loan agreement. After the Prepayment Premium Period and until maturity, the loan may be prepaid without penalty.  As a condition of the new loan, the lender required AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the Partnership, to guarantee the obligations and liabilities of the Partnership with respect to the new mortgage financing.


Note E - Contingencies


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


Environmental


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


Mold


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


ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF PLAN OF OPERATION


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


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


 

Average Occupancy

 

2006

2005

Big Walnut Apartments

  

Columbus, Ohio (1)

97%

71%

The Trails Apartments

  

Nashville, Tennessee (2)

96%

92%

Reflections Apartments

  

Indianapolis, Indiana

90%

90%


(1)

The increase in occupancy at Big Walnut Apartments is attributable to enhancing the curb appeal of the property, addressing security issues in the surrounding area, improving the service to tenants and stabilizing the tenant base.


(2)

The increase in occupancy at The Trails Apartments is due to an improved pricing structure developed to maintain competitiveness with other properties and improved market conditions in the local area.


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


Results of Operations


The Partnership’s net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 was approximately $996,000 and $1,387,000, respectively, compared to net loss of approximately $472,000 and $852,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively.  The increase in net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 is due to an increase in total expenses partially offset by an increase in total revenues.


Total expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2006 increased due to increases in operating, depreciation, and interest expenses and the recognition of a loss on early extinguishment of debt partially offset by decreases in general and administrative and property tax expenses.  Total expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2006 increased due to increases in depreciation and interest expenses and the recognition of a loss on early extinguishment of debt. Operating, general and administrative and property tax expenses remained relatively constant for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Operating expense for the three months ended June 30, 2006 increased due to an increase in property, administrative, and insurance expense partially offset by a decrease in maintenance expense.  Property expense increased due to an increase in payroll and related costs at Big Walnut and The Trails Apartments.  Administrative expense increased due to an increase in eviction costs, phone sales, and cleaning costs at Big Walnut Apartments and Reflections Apartments. Insurance expense increased due to an increase in hazard insurance premiums at all three investment properties.  Maintenance expense decreased due to a decrease in contract labor at Big Walnut Apartments and Reflections Apartments and turnover costs at Reflections Apartments. Property tax expense decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2006 due to an adjustment to property tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2005 related to prior capitalized assets from the redevelopment of Reflections Apartments in the prior year. Depreciation expense for both periods increased due to fixed assets being placed into service over the past year at all three investment properties.  Interest expense increased for both periods due to an increase in interest charged on advances from an affiliate of the Managing General Partner due to an increase in such advances during the second half of 2005, along with an increase in the interest rate charged on such advances which more than offset payments made on the advances during the second quarter of 2006. Also contributing to the increase in interest expense is an increase in the variable interest rate on the mortgage at Big Walnut Apartments. The increase in loss on early extinguishment of debt is due to the refinancing of the mortgage encumbering The Trails Apartments in May 2006. See discussion in liquidity and capital resources below.


Total revenues for both periods increased due to an increase in both rental and other income. Rental income increased due to an increase in occupancy at Big Walnut Apartments and The Trails Apartments, an increase in the average rental rates at The Trails Apartments and Reflections Apartments, and a decrease in bad debt expense at Big Walnut Apartments and Reflections Apartments partially offset by a decrease in the average rental rate at Big Walnut Apartments.  Other income increased due to an increase in interest income as a result of higher cash balances during the six months ended June 30, 2006 and the receipt of a refund related to Tennessee franchise taxes paid in 2002 that was received in 2006.


General and administrative expenses decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2006 due to estimated Tennessee franchise taxes paid during the second quarter of 2005. Included in general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 are management reimbursements to the Managing General Partner as allowed under the Partnership Agreement. Also included in general and administrative expenses for both periods are costs associated with the quarterly and annual communications with investors and regulatory agencies and the annual audit required by the Partnership Agreement.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


At June 30, 2006, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $788,000 compared to approximately $340,000 at June 30, 2005. Cash and cash equivalents increased approximately $160,000 since December 31, 2005 due to approximately $956,000 of cash provided by financing activities offset by approximately $432,000 of cash used in investing activities and approximately $364,000 of cash used in operating activities. Cash provided by financing activities consisted of proceeds from the refinancing of the mortgage encumbering The Trails Apartments and advances from an affiliate of the Managing General Partner, partially offset by payments made on the advances received, payments made on the mortgages encumbering the Partnership’s investment properties, repayment of the prior mortgage encumbering The Trails Apartments and loan costs paid related to the new mortgage. Cash used in investing activities consisted of property improvements and replacements offset by net withdrawals from restricted escrows.  The Partnership invests its working capital reserves in interest bearing accounts.


In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, an affiliate of the Managing General Partner advanced the Partnership approximately $174,000 and $25,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 to cover operational expenses. At June 30, 2006, the amount of the outstanding loans and accrued interest was approximately $5,513,000. Interest is charged at prime plus 1%, or 9.25% at June 30, 2006. Interest expense was approximately $383,000 and $291,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.  For the six months ended June 30, 2006 the Partnership made payments of approximately $3,366,000 of principal and approximately $1,168,000 of accrued interest to an affiliate of the Managing General Partner from cash reserves and refinancing proceeds. An affiliate of the Managing General Partner is considering the remedies it can pursue including accelerating repayment of the outstanding loans it has made to the Partnership to cover capital expenditures, operational expenses and to assist in the refinancing of the mortgage encumbering Reflections Apartments.


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


Big Walnut Apartments


During the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Partnership completed approximately $399,000 of capital expenditures at Big Walnut Apartments consisting primarily of exterior door replacements, swimming pool decking upgrades, parking lot upgrades, foundation repairs, roof replacement, balcony upgrades, and appliance and floor covering replacements. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow and replacement reserves. The Partnership regularly evaluates the capital improvement needs of the property. While the Partnership has no material commitments for property improvements and replacements, certain routine capital expenditures are anticipated during 2006. Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as anticipated cash flow generated by the property.


The Trails Apartments


During the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Partnership completed approximately $115,000 of capital expenditures at The Trails Apartments consisting primarily of appliance and floor covering replacements and wall coverings. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow. The Partnership regularly evaluates the capital improvement needs of the property. In connection with the refinancing of the mortgage encumbering the property in May 2006, approximately $186,000 of improvements are required to be made to the property. These improvements consist of exterior stair and wall repairs, parking and sidewalk repairs and additional foundation support to the clubhouse. While the Partnership has no additional material commitments for property improvements and replacements, certain routine capital expenditures are anticipated during 2006. Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as anticipated cash flow generated by the property.


Reflections Apartments


During the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Partnership completed approximately $115,000 of capital expenditures at Reflections Apartments consisting primarily of structural upgrades, parking lot upgrades, and appliance and floor covering replacements. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow. The Partnership regularly evaluates the capital improvement needs of the property. While the Partnership has no material commitments for property improvements and replacements, certain routine capital expenditures are anticipated during 2006. Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as anticipated cash flow generated by the property.


During April 2006 Reflections Apartments suffered significant damage to all of the property’s roofs as a result of hail and wind produced by tornadoes.  The current estimated cost to replace the roofs is approximately $600,000.  The Managing General Partner is working with the insurance company to finalize the estimated costs and insurance proceeds to be received.  It is currently estimated that insurance proceeds will cover the costs to replace the roofs.


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


The Partnership's assets are thought to be generally sufficient for any near-term needs (exclusive of capital improvements) of the Partnership. The mortgage indebtedness encumbering Reflections Apartments of approximately $12,720,000 matures in January 2029 at which time the loan is scheduled to be fully amortized. However, the lender can exercise a call option on the mortgage on February 1, 2009 and every fifth anniversary thereafter until maturity. If the lender exercises the call option, the outstanding principal balance and any related interest expense is due and payable on the call date. The mortgage indebtedness encumbering Big Walnut Apartments of approximately $5,226,000 matures in September 2007 at which time a balloon payment of approximately $5,042,000 is required.  The Managing General Partner has the option to extend the maturity on the Big Walnut Apartments loan for another five years. On May 31, 2006, the Partnership refinanced the mortgage encumbering one of its investment properties, The Trails Apartments.  The Partnership recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $526,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2006 due to the write off of unamortized loan costs and debt discounts.  The new mortgage loan, in the principal amount of $8,700,000 replaced the existing mortgage loan, which had an outstanding balance at the time of the refinancing of approximately $4,066,000. Closing costs of approximately $129,000 were capitalized and are included in other assets.  The new mortgage loan requires monthly payments of principal and interest of approximately $52,000, beginning on July 1, 2006 until the loan matures on June 1, 2016, with a fixed interest rate of 5.96% and a balloon payment of approximately $7,385,000 due at maturity. The Partnership is also required to comply with the terms of a repair agreement, which calls for approximately $186,000 of capital improvements and repairs to be made within one year.  Such capital improvements and repairs consist of exterior stair and wall repairs, parking and sidewalk repairs and additional foundation support to the clubhouse.  From May 31, 2006 through December 1, 2015 (the “Prepayment Premium Period”) the loan may be prepaid with the payment of a prepayment penalty, as defined in the loan agreement. After the Prepayment Premium Period and until maturity, the loan may be prepaid without penalty.  As a condition of the new loan, the lender required AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the Partnership, to guarantee the obligations and liabilities of the Partnership with respect to the new mortgage financing. The Managing General Partner will attempt to refinance and/or sell the properties prior to such maturity dates. If the properties cannot be refinanced or sold for a sufficient amount, the Partnership may risk losing such properties through foreclosure.


Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the term of the Partnership is scheduled to expire on December 31, 2008. Accordingly, prior to such date the Partnership will need to either sell the investment properties or extend the term of the Partnership.


No cash distributions were made during the six months ended June 30, 2006 or 2005. Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of net cash generated from operations, and the timing of debt maturities, refinancings, and/or property sales. The Partnership's cash available for distribution is reviewed on a monthly basis. In light of the significant amount due to affiliates of the Managing General Partner at June 30, 2006, it is not anticipated that the Partnership will make any distributions in the foreseeable future.


Other


In addition to its indirect ownership of the managing and associate general partner interests in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 656.50 limited partnership units ("Units") in the Partnership representing 53.62% of the outstanding Units at June 30, 2006. A number of these Units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. It is possible that AIMCO or its affiliates will acquire additional Units in exchange for cash or a combination of cash and units in AIMCO Properties, L.P., the operating partnership of AIMCO, either through private purchases or tender offers. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, unitholders holding a majority of the Units are entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters that include, but are not limited to, voting on certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting to remove the Managing General Partner. As a result of its ownership of 53.62% of the outstanding Units, AIMCO is in a position to control all such voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. Although the Managing General Partner owes fiduciary duties to the limited partners of the Partnership, the Managing General Partner also owes fiduciary duties to AIMCO as its sole stockholder. As a result, the duties of the Managing General Partner, as managing general partner, to the Partnership and its limited partners may come into conflict with the duties of the Managing General Partner to AIMCO as its sole stockholder.


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates


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


Impairment of Long-Lived Assets


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


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


Revenue Recognition


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


ITEM 3.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


(a)

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Partnership’s management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Managing General Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Managing General Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.


(b)

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have not been any changes in the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.


PART II - OTHER INFORMATION



ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


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


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


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


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


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


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