PART I


Item 1.

Description of Business


Davidson Diversified Real Estate II, L.P. (the "Partnership" or "Registrant") is a Delaware limited partnership organized in June 1984.  The general partners of the Partnership are Davidson Diversified Properties, Inc., a Tennessee corporation ("Managing General Partner"); Davidson Equities, Limited, ("Associate General Partner"); and David W. Talley ("Individual General Partner") (collectively, the "General Partners").  The Managing General Partner is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Apartment Investment and Management Company (“AIMCO”), a publicly traded real estate investment trust.  The Partnership Agreement provides that the Partnership is to terminate on December 31, 2008, unless terminated prior to such date.


The offering of the Partnership's limited partnership units (the "Units") commenced on October 16, 1984, and terminated on October 15, 1985. The Partnership received gross proceeds from the offering of $24,485,000 and net proceeds of $21,760,500. Upon termination of the offering, the Partnership had accepted subscriptions for 1,224.25 Units. Since its initial offering, the Partnership has not received, nor are limited partners required to make, additional capital contributions.


The Partnership is engaged in the business of operating and holding real estate properties for investment. In 1984 and 1985, during its acquisition phase, the Partnership acquired eight existing multifamily residential and commercial properties of which three have been sold and two have been foreclosed upon by the mortgage holder.  The last commercial shopping center was sold on December 30, 1999.  As of December 31, 2006, the Partnership owned and operated three multifamily residential properties.


The Partnership has no employees. Management and administrative services are provided by the Managing General Partner. These services were provided by affiliates of the Managing General Partner for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.


Risk Factors


The real estate business in which the Partnership is engaged is highly competitive. There are other residential properties within the market area of the Partnership’s properties. The number and quality of competitive properties, including those that rental market for the apartments at the Partnership’s properties and the rents that may be charged for such apartments.  While the Managing General Partner and its affiliates own and/or control a significant number of apartment units in the United States, such units represent an insignificant percentage of total apartment units in the United States and competition for the apartments is local.


Laws benefiting disabled persons may result in the Partnership's incurrence of unanticipated expenses.  Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, or ADA, all places intended to be used by the public are required to meet certain Federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. Likewise, the Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988, or FHAA, requires apartment properties first occupied after March 13, 1990 to be accessible to the handicapped.  These and other Federal, state and local laws may require modifications to the Partnership's properties, or restrict renovations of the properties.  Noncompliance with these laws could result in the imposition of fines or an award of damages to private litigants and also could result in an order to correct any non-complying feature, which could result in substantial capital expenditures. Although the Managing General Partner believes that the Partnership's properties are substantially in compliance with the present requirements, the Partnership may incur unanticipated expenses to comply with the ADA and the FHAA.


Both the income and expenses of operating the properties owned by the Partnership are subject to factors outside of the Partnership’s control, such as changes in the supply and demand for similar properties resulting from various market conditions, increases/decreases in unemployment or population shifts, changes in the availability of permanent mortgage financing, changes in zoning laws, or changes in patterns or needs of users.  In addition, there are risks inherent in owning and operating residential properties because such properties are susceptible to the impact of economic and other conditions outside of the control of the Partnership.


From time to time, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, or FBI, and the United States Department of Homeland Security issue alerts regarding potential terrorist threats involving apartment buildings. Threats of future terrorist attacks, such as those announced by the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security, could have a negative effect on rent and occupancy levels at the Partnership’s properties. The effect that future terrorist activities or threats of such activities could have on the Partnership’s operations is uncertain and unpredictable. If the Partnership were to incur a loss at a property as a result of an act of terrorism, the Partnership could lose all or a portion of the capital invested in the property, as well as the future revenue from the property.


There have been, and it is possible there may be other, Federal, state and local legislation and regulations enacted relating to the protection of the environment. The Partnership is unable to predict the extent, if any, to which such new legislation or regulations might occur and the degree to which such existing or new legislation or regulations might adversely affect the properties owned by the Partnership.


The Partnership monitors its properties for evidence of pollutants, toxins and other dangerous substances, including the presence of asbestos. In certain cases environmental testing has been performed which resulted in no material adverse conditions or liabilities.  In no case has the Partnership received notice that it is a potentially responsible party with respect to an environmental clean up site.


A further description of the Partnership's business is included in "Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation" included in "Item 6." of this Form 10-KSB.

See "Item 7. Financial Statements - Note B" for information with respect to the Partnership's ability to prepay the loans and other details about the loans.


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 year ended December 31, 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 $139,000 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.

(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.


As noted under "Item 1. Description of Business", the real estate industry is highly competitive. All of the properties are subject to competition from other residential apartment complexes in the area.  The Managing General Partner believes that all of the properties are adequately insured.  Each property is an apartment complex which leases units for terms of one year or less.  As of December 31, 2006, no residential tenant leases 10% or more of the available rental space.  All of the properties are in good condition subject to normal depreciation and deterioration as is typical for assets of this type and age.

Capital Improvements


Big Walnut Apartments:


During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Partnership completed approximately $649,000 of capital expenditures at Big Walnut Apartments consisting primarily of structural upgrades, swimming pool decking upgrades, roof replacement, foundation repairs, balcony upgrades, parking lot 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 2007.  Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property and anticipated cash flow generated by the property.






The Trails Apartments:


During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Partnership completed approximately $371,000 of capital expenditures at The Trails Apartments consisting primarily of appliance and floor covering replacements, structural upgrades, wall coverings, major landscaping, recreation facility improvements, air conditioning and plumbing upgrades. 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 2007.  Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property and anticipated cash flow generated by the property.


Reflections Apartments:


During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Partnership completed approximately $993,000 in capital expenditures at Reflections Apartments consisting primarily of kitchen and bath resurfacing, heating and air conditioning upgrades, structural and parking lot upgrades, appliance and floor covering replacements, office equipment and casualty repairs. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow and insurance proceeds. 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 2007.  Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property and anticipated cash flow generated by the property.


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


Item 3.

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. On August 31, 2006, the Objector filed a Notice of Appeal to the Court’s June 30, 2006 and July 1, 2006 orders. On December 14, 2006, Objector filed his Appellant’s Brief. The Partnership and its affiliates, as well as counsel of the Settlement Class, have not yet filed their briefs in response.


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. On March 28, 2007, the court issued an opinion decertifying the collective action on both issues.  The court held that the members of the collective action are not similarly situated and the case may not proceed as a collective action.  The nine named plaintiffs still maintain their individual causes of action. The California and Maryland cases are still pending as they were stayed pending the outcome of the decertification motion in the District of Columbia case.  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.


Item 4.

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders


During the quarter ended December 31, 2006, no matters were submitted to a vote of Unit holders through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise.








PART II


Item 5.

Market for the Partnership Equity and Related Partner Matters


The Partnership, a publicly-held limited partnership, offered and sold 1,224.25 Limited Partnership Units ("Units") aggregating $24,485,000. As of December 31, 2006 there were 689 holders of record owning an aggregate of 1,224.25 Units. Affiliates of the Managing General Partner owned 706 units or 57.67% of the outstanding Units at December 31, 2006. There is no established public trading market for the Units and it is not anticipated that such a market will develop in the future.


No cash distributions were made to the partners during 2006 or 2005. Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of net cash generated from operations, the timing of debt maturities, property sales and/or refinancings. 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 December 31, 2006, it is not anticipated that the Partnership will make any distributions in the foreseeable future. See "Item 2. Description of Properties – Capital Improvements" for information relating to anticipated capital expenditures at the properties.


In addition to its indirect ownership of the managing and associate general partner interests in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 706 Units in the Partnership representing 57.67% of the outstanding Units at December 31, 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 57.67% of the outstanding Units, AIMCO and its affiliates are 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.


Item 6.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation


This item should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and other items contained elsewhere in this report.


The Partnership’s financial results depend on 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 was approximately $2,191,000 for the year ended December 31, 2006 compared to a net loss of approximately $1,846,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005.  The increase in net loss for the year ended December 31, 2006 is due to an increase in total expenses, partially offset by an increase in total revenues.


Total expenses increased due to increases in operating, depreciation and interest expense and the recognition of a loss on early extinguishment of debt.  General and administrative expense and property tax expense remained relatively constant for the comparable periods. Operating expense increased due to an increase in insurance and management fee expenses partially offset by a decrease in advertising and maintenance expenses. Insurance expense increased due to an increase in hazard insurance premiums at all three investment properties. Management fee expense increased due to an increase in rental income which this fee is based. Advertising expense decreased due to a decrease in periodical advertising at all three investment properties. Maintenance expense decreased due to a decrease in contract labor and the cost of readying apartments for rent at all three investment properties. Depreciation expense increased due to fixed assets being placed into service during 2006 at all three investment properties. Interest expense increased due to an increase in the variable interest rate on the mortgage at Big Walnut Apartments and an increase in interest due to the refinancing of the mortgage encumbering The Trails Apartments partially offset by a decrease in interest charged on advances from an affiliate of the Managing General Partner due to payments made on advances with proceeds from the refinancing of the mortgage encumbering The Trails Apartments. The increase in loss on early extinguishment of debt for the year ended December 31, 2006 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 increased due to increases in both rental income and other income and the recognition of a casualty gain. Rental income increased due to an increase in occupancy at both 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 The Trails Apartments. Other income increased due to an increase in interest income as a result of higher average cash balances during 2006 and the receipt of a refund related to Tennessee franchise taxes paid in 2002 that was received in 2006.  


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 estimated cost to replace the roofs is approximately $554,000. During the fourth quarter of 2006 the Partnership received insurance proceeds of approximately $442,000. Additional insurance proceeds of approximately $110,000 were received subsequent to December 31, 2006. A casualty gain of approximately $27,000 was recognized during the fourth quarter of 2006 as a result of receiving insurance proceeds of approximately $442,000 offset by approximately $415,000 of undepreciated assets written off.


Included in general and administrative expense for the years ended December 31, 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 the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 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 December 31, 2006, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $603,000 compared to approximately $628,000 at December 31, 2005. Cash and cash equivalents decreased approximately $25,000 since December 31, 2005 due to approximately $1,395,000 of cash used in investing activities partially offset by approximately $694,000 of cash provided by financing activities and approximately $676,000 of cash provided by operating activities. Cash used in investing activities consisted of property improvements and replacements partially offset by the receipt of insurance proceeds and the release of replacement reserve escrows.  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 from an affiliate of the Managing General Partner, 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.


In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, an affiliate of the Managing General Partner advanced the Partnership approximately $346,000 to cover operational expenses and real estate taxes during the year ended December 31, 2006. During the year ended December 31, 2005 an affiliate of the Managing General Partner advanced the Partnership approximately $197,000 to cover capital expenditures. The Partnership repaid approximately $3,496,000 of advances and approximately $1,338,000 of interest during the year ended December 31, 2006. There were no payments made during the year ended December 31, 2005. At December 31, 2006, the amount of the outstanding loans and accrued interest was approximately $5,643,000 and is included in due to affiliates on the consolidated balance sheet. Interest on advances is charged at prime plus 1% or 9.25% at December 31, 2006. Interest expense was approximately $642,000 and $660,000 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. 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 various 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. The Partnership regularly evaluates the capital improvement needs of the properties.  While the Partnership has no material commitments for property improvements and replacements, certain routine capital expenditures are anticipated during 2007.  Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the properties as well as partnership reserves and anticipated cash flow generated by the properties.


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 $12,548,000 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 $5,153,000 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 year ended December 31, 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 $139,000 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.


There were no distributions during the years ended December 31, 2006 or 2005. Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of net cash generated from operations, 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 December 31, 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 706 limited partnership units ("Units") in the Partnership representing 57.67% of the outstanding Units at December 31, 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 57.67% of the outstanding Units, AIMCO and its affiliates are 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


A summary of the Partnership’s significant accounting policies is included in "Note A – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" which is included in the consolidated financial statements in "Item 7. Financial Statements".  The Managing General Partner believes that the consistent application of these policies enables the Partnership to provide readers of the consolidated financial statements with useful and reliable information about the Partnership’s operating results and financial condition.  The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires the Partnership to make estimates and assumptions.  These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.  Judgments and assessments of uncertainties are required in applying the Partnership’s accounting policies in many areas. 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.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Davidson Diversified Real Estate II, L.P. as of December 31, 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in partners' deficit, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2006. 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 conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).   Those stan­dards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.  Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Davidson Diversified Real Estate II, L.P. at December 31, 2006, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2006, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


December 31, 2006



Note A - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Organization


Davidson Diversified Real Estate II, L.P. (the "Partnership" or "Registrant") is a Delaware limited partnership organized in June 1984 to acquire and operate residential and commercial real estate properties. The general partners of the Partnership are Davidson Diversified Properties, Inc., a Tennessee corporation ("Managing General Partner"); Davidson Equities, Limited, ("Associate General Partner"); and David W. Talley ("Individual General Partner") (collectively, the "General Partners"). The Managing General Partner is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Apartment Investment and Management Company ("AIMCO"), a publicly traded real estate investment trust. The Partnership commenced operations on October 16, 1984, and completed its acquisition of investment properties prior to December 31, 1985. The Partnership Agreement provides that the Partnership is to terminate on December 31, 2008, unless terminated prior to such date. As of December 31, 2006, the Partnership operates three apartment properties located in or near major urban areas in the United States.

 

Principles of Consolidation


The Partnership's consolidated financial statements include all the accounts of the Partnership and its two 99.9% owned partnerships and one wholly owned partnership. The general partner of these partnerships is Davidson Diversified Properties, Inc. Davidson Diversified Properties, Inc. may be removed as the general partner of these partnerships by the Partnership; therefore, the consolidated partnerships are controlled and consolidated by the Partnership. All significant interpartnership balances have been eliminated.


Allocations of Profits, Gains & Losses


Net income, other than that arising from the occurrence of a sale or refinancing, and net loss shall be allocated 2% to the general partners and 98% to the limited partners.


Allocation of Cash Distributions


Cash distributions by the Partnership are allocated between general and limited partners in accordance with the Partnership Agreement. The Partnership Agreement provides that 98% of distributions of adjusted cash from operations are allocated to the limited partners and 2% to the general partners. Cash from operations is defined as the excess of cash received from operations less operating expenses paid, adjusted for certain specified items which primarily include mortgage payments on debt, property improvements and replacements not previously reserved, and the effects of other adjustments to reserves including reserve amounts deemed necessary by the Managing General Partner.


Distributions made from reserves no longer considered necessary by the general partners are considered to be additional adjusted cash from operations for allocation purposes. No cash distributions to the partners were made during the years ended December 31, 2006 or 2005.


Cash from sales or refinancings (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) shall be distributed to the limited partners until each limited partner has received his original invested capital plus an amount equal to a cumulative 8% per annum of the average of the limited partners' adjusted invested capital, less any prior distributions.  The general partners are then entitled to receive 3% of the selling price of properties sold where they acted as a broker. The limited partners will then be allocated 85% of any remaining distributions and the general partners will receive 15%.


Investment Properties


Investment properties consist of three apartment complexes and are stated at cost.  The Partnership capitalizes costs incurred in connection with capital expenditure activities, including redevelopment and construction projects, other tangible property improvements and replacements of existing property components.  Costs including interest, property taxes and operating costs associated with redevelopment and construction projects are capitalized during periods in which redevelopment and construction projects are in progress in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 34, “Capitalization of Interest Costs” and SFAS No. 67, “Accounting for Costs and the Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Properties.”  Costs incurred in connection with capital projects are capitalized where the costs of the project exceed $250.  Included in these capitalized costs are payroll costs associated with time spent by site employees in connection with the planning, execution and control of all capital expenditure activities at the property level.  The Partnership did not capitalize any costs related to interest, property taxes or operating costs during the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.  Capitalized costs are depreciated over the useful life of the asset.  Expenditures for ordinary repairs, maintenance and apartment turnover costs are expensed as incurred.


In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, the Partnership records impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when events and circumstances indicate the assets might be impaired and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying amounts of those assets.  No adjustments for impairment of value were necessary for the years ending December 31, 2006 and 2005.


Depreciation


Depreciation is provided by the straight-line method over the estimated lives of the apartment properties and related personal property. For Federal income tax purposes, the accelerated cost recovery method is used for real property over 19 years for additions after May 8, 1985, and before January 1, 1987. As a result of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, for additions after December 31, 1986, the modified accelerated cost recovery method is used for depreciation of (1) real property additions over 27 1/2 years, and (2) personal property additions over 5 years.


Deferred Costs


Loan costs of approximately $448,000, less accumulated amortization of approximately $231,000, are included in other assets.  The loan costs are amortized over the terms of the related loan agreements. Amortization expense was approximately $70,000 and $66,000 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and is included in interest expense on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.  Amortization expense is expected to be approximately $67,000 in 2007 approximately $43,000 in 2008, approximately $16,000 in 2009 and approximately $14,000 in 2010 and 2011.


Leasing commissions and other direct costs incurred in connection with successful leasing efforts are deferred and amortized over the terms of the related leases.  Amortization of these costs is included in operating expenses.


Cash and Cash Equivalents


Cash and equivalents include cash on hand and in banks. At certain times, the amount of cash deposited at a bank may exceed the limit on insured deposits. Cash balances include approximately $548,000 at December 31, 2006 that are maintained by an affiliated management company on behalf of affiliated entities in cash concentration accounts.


Tenant Security Deposits


The Partnership requires security deposits from lessees for the duration of the lease and such deposits are included in receivables and deposits. The security deposits are refunded when the tenant vacates, provided the tenant has not damaged the space and is current on rental payments.


Leases


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.


Advertising Costs


The Partnership expenses the costs of advertising as incurred. Advertising expense, included in operating expenses was approximately $148,000 and $184,000 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments


SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments", as amended by SFAS No. 119, "Disclosures about Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments", requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. Fair value is defined in the SFAS as the amount at which the instruments could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The Partnership believes that the carrying amounts of its financial instruments (except for long term debt) approximates their fair value due to the short term maturity of these instruments including the debt encumbering Big Walnut Apartments. The Partnership estimates the fair value of its long term debt by discounting future cash flows using a discount rate commensurate with that currently believed to be available to the Partnership for similar term long-term debt. The fair value of the Partnership's long term debt at the Partnership’s incremental borrowing rate approximates its carrying value.


Segment Reporting


SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" established standards for the way public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports. SFAS No. 131 also established standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. As defined in SFAS No. 131, the Partnership has only one reportable segment.


Use of Estimates


The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


In May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 154 “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, which replaces APB Opinion No. 20 and SFAS No. 3, and changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. This statement is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Partnership adopted SFAS No. 154 effective January 1, 2006. The adoption of SFAS No. 154 did not have a material effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.


In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" ("FIN 48").  FIN 48 prescribes a two-step process for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.  The first step involves evaluation of a tax position to determine whether it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position.  The second step involves measuring the benefit to recognize in the financial statements for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold.  FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.  FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006.  The Partnership has not yet determined the effect that FIN 48 will have on its consolidated financial statements.


In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the market in which the reporting entity transacts. SFAS No. 157 applies whenever other standards require assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value and does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. SFAS No. 157 establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the information used in developing fair value estimates. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data, such as the reporting entity’s own data. SFAS No. 157 requires fair value measurements to be disclosed by level within the fair value hierarchy. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Partnership does not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have a material effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial statements.


In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS No. 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Partnership has not yet determined whether it will elect the fair value option for any of its financial instruments.

Adjustable interest rate is based on the Fannie Mae discounted mortgage-backed security index plus 85 basis points through March 31, 2006 and 105 basis points from April 1, 2006 through December 31, 2006.  The rate at December 31, 2006 was 6.3%.


(2)

Fixed rate mortgage.



The mortgage notes payable are non-recourse and are secured by a pledge of the Partnership’s rental properties and by a pledge of revenues from the respective rental properties. The mortgage note payable for Reflections Apartments and The Trails Apartments include prepayment penalties if repaid prior to maturity. Further, the properties may not be sold subject to existing indebtedness.


The mortgage for Big Walnut Apartments is financed under a permanent credit facility ("Permanent Credit Facility").  The Permanent Credit Facility has a maturity of September 15, 2007, with one five-year extension option. This Permanent Credit Facility creates separate loans for each property that are not cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with the other property loans. Each note under this Permanent Credit Facility begins as a variable rate loan with the option of converting to a fixed rate loan after three years. The interest rate on the variable rate loans is the Fannie Mae discounted mortgage-backed security index plus 85 basis points through March 31, 2006 and 105 basis points from April 1, 2006 through December 31, 2006 and resets monthly. The rate at December 31, 2006 was 6.30%. Each loan automatically renews at the end of each month. In addition, monthly principal payments are required based on a 30-year amortization schedule, using the interest rate in effect during the first month that any property is in the Permanent Credit Facility. The loans are prepayable without penalty and are guaranteed by an affiliate of the Managing General Partner.


The mortgage for Reflections Apartments has a maturity date of January 1, 2029, 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.


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 year ended December 31, 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 $139,000 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 D - 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 as compensation for providing property management services. The Partnership paid or accrued to such affiliates approximately $375,000 and $346,000 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, which is included in operating expenses. At December 31, 2006 approximately $2,000 of such expense is accrued and is included in due to affiliates on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.


An affiliate of the Managing General Partner charged the Partnership for reimbursement of accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately $360,000 and $295,000 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expense and investment properties. The portion of these reimbursements included in investment properties for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 are construction management services provided by an affiliate of the Managing General Partner of approximately $175,000 and $107,000, respectively. At December 31, 2006 approximately $47,000 of reimbursements is accrued and is included in due to affiliates on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.


In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, an affiliate of the Managing General Partner advanced the Partnership approximately $346,000 to cover operational expenses and real estate taxes during the year ended December 31, 2006. During the year ended December 31, 2005 an affiliate of the Managing General Partner advanced the Partnership approximately $197,000 to cover capital expenditures. The Partnership repaid approximately $3,496,000 of advances and approximately $1,338,000 of interest during the year ended December 31, 2006. There were no payments made during the year ended December 31, 2005. At December 31, 2006, the amount of the outstanding loans and accrued interest was approximately $5,643,000 and is included in due to affiliates on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Interest on advances is charged at prime plus 1% or 9.25% at December 31, 2006. Interest expense was approximately $642,000 and $660,000 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. 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 this amount to an unaffiliated third party as part of a settlement regarding brokerage services. Approximately $18,000 is accrued at December 31, 2006 and is included in other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Payment of this 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 years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $215,000 and $108,000, respectively, for insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration.


In addition to its indirect ownership of the managing and associate general partner interests in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 706 limited partnership units ("Units") in the Partnership representing 57.67% of the outstanding Units at December 31, 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 57.67% of the outstanding Units, AIMCO and its affiliates are 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.

The aggregate cost of the real estate for Federal income tax purposes at December 31, 2006 and 2005, is approximately $56,112,000 and $54,528,000 respectively. The accumulated depreciation taken for Federal income tax purposes at December 31, 2006 and 2005, is approximately $33,988,000 and $32,258,000, respectively.


Note F - 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 estimated cost to replace the roofs is approximately $554,000. During the fourth quarter of 2006 the Partnership received insurance proceeds of approximately $442,000. Additional insurance proceeds of approximately $110,000 were received subsequent to December 31, 2007. A casualty gain of approximately $27,000 was recognized during the fourth quarter of 2006 as a result of receiving insurance proceeds of approximately $442,000 offset by approximately $415,000 of undepreciated assets written off.


Note G - 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. On August 31, 2006, the Objector filed a Notice of Appeal to the Court’s June 30, 2006 and July 1, 2006 orders. On December 14, 2006, Objector filed his Appellant’s Brief. The Partnership and its affiliates, as well as counsel of the Settlement Class, have not yet filed their briefs in response.


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. On March 28, 2007, the court issued an opinion decertifying the collective action on both issues.  The court held that the members of the collective action are not similarly situated and the case may not proceed as a collective action.  The nine named plaintiffs still maintain their individual causes of action. The California and Maryland cases are still pending as they were stayed pending the outcome of the decertification motion in the District of Columbia case.  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 policies, procedures, third-party audits and training and the Managing General Partner believes that these measures will prevent or eliminate mold exposure and will minimize the effects that mold may 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.


Excise Taxes


During 2006, the Partnership received an excise tax audit assessment from Tennessee in the amount of approximately $32,000 for the tax years 2002-2005. The Partnership does not believe it should be subject to excise tax and intends to formally contest such assessment. Therefore, the Partnership has not accrued any amounts related to this assessment.

Item 8A.

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 fourth quarter of 2006 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item 12.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence


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 as compensation for providing property management services. The Partnership paid or accrued to such affiliates approximately $375,000 and $346,000 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, which is included in operating expenses. At December 31, 2006 approximately $2,000 of such expense is accrued and is included in due to affiliates.


An affiliate of the Managing General Partner charged the Partnership for reimbursement of accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately $360,000 and $295,000 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expense and investment properties. The portion of these reimbursements included in investment properties for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 are construction management services provided by an affiliate of the Managing General Partner of approximately $175,000 and $107,000, respectively. At December 31, 2006 approximately $47,000 of reimbursements is accrued and is included in due to affiliates.


In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, an affiliate of the Managing General Partner advanced the Partnership approximately $346,000 to cover operational expenses and real estate taxes during the year ended December 31, 2006. During the year ended December 31, 2005 an affiliate of the Managing General Partner advanced the Partnership approximately $197,000 to cover capital expenditures. The Partnership repaid approximately $3,496,000 of advances and approximately $1,338,000 of interest during the year ended December 31, 2006. There were no payments made during the year ended December 31, 2005. At December 31, 2006, the amount of the outstanding loans and accrued interest was approximately $5,643,000 and is included in due to affiliates. Interest on advances is charged at prime plus 1% or 9.25% at December 31, 2006. Interest expense was approximately $642,000 and $660,000 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. 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 this amount to an unaffiliated third party as part of a settlement regarding brokerage services. Approximately $18,000 is accrued at December 31, 2006 and is included in other liabilities. Payment of this 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 years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $215,000 and $108,000, respectively, for insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration.


In addition to its indirect ownership of the managing and associate general partner interests in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 706 limited partnership units ("Units") in the Partnership representing 57.67% of the outstanding Units at December 31, 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 57.67% of the outstanding Units, AIMCO and its affiliates are 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.


Neither of the Managing General Partner’s directors is independent under the independence standards established for New York Stock Exchange listed companies as both directors are employed by the parent of the Managing General Partner.
