MCCOMBS REALTY PARTNERS


NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)



Note A – Going Concern


The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming McCombs Realty Partners (the “Partnership”) will continue as a going concern.  The Partnership continues to generate recurring operating losses, has advances due to affiliates and its mortgage note payable matures December 1, 2007.  The Partnership’s general partner, CRPTEX, Inc., a Texas corporation (the “General Partner”) is currently evaluating its options to improve the operations of the property and further increase occupancy levels to improve the cash flows generated by the property.


As a result of the above, there is substantial doubt about the Partnership’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.


Note B – Basis of Presentation


The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Partnership, a California limited partnership, 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 the General Partner, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 1 0-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006. The General Partner is a subsidiary of Apartment Investment and Management Company ("AIMCO"), a publicly traded real estate investment trust.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“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 va lue 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 financ ial instruments.


Note C – Plan of Reorganization


On March 9, 1987, the original general partners of the Partnership, on behalf of the Partnership, filed a voluntary petition under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code in U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Central District of California ("Court").  The Partnership continued as Debtor-In-Possession to operate its business in the ordinary course until the Court confirmed the Partnership's Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”) effective October 25, 1988.  The Plan was approved by all required classes of creditors.


The Plan required that the Partnership make certain payments to its secured creditors and others on or before October 20, 1995.  These payments were made on or

about June 25, 1995, when the Partnership refinanced the outstanding mortgages encumbering the property.  The Plan also required that the Partnership make the following distributions on October 20, 1998, from available cash:


1)

First, Limited Partners, both original and substitute, who made additional capital contributions under the Plan would receive a repayment of the additional contributions totaling approximately $730,000; if sufficient funds were unavailable to fully satisfy this amount then a pro-rata portion would be paid based upon available funds;


2)

Second, Class 12 unsecured creditors ($23,100) would be paid on their claims;


3)

Third, Limited Partners who made additional capital contributions and were original Limited Partners would receive a repayment of their original capital contributions totaling approximately $9,818,000; if sufficient funds were unavailable to fully satisfy this amount then a pro-rata portion of available cash less a pro-rata portion reserved for one third of the existing capital contributions of non-contributing Limited Partners would be paid based upon available funds;


4)

Fourth, Limited Partners who did not make additional capital contributions would receive a repayment of one-third of their original capital contributions (i.e., one-third of $1,200,000); if sufficient funds were unavailable to fully satisfy this amount then a pro-rata portion would be paid based upon available funds.


Additionally, the Plan required CRPTEX, Inc. to make a capital contribution of $14,500 and loan an additional $117,500 on behalf of the Partnership.  The Partnership received the $14,500 capital contribution but did not receive or require the additional $117,500 to be loaned.


The payments required by number 2 above were timely made.  With respect to the amounts due to the Limited Partners under numbers 1, 3, and 4 above, there were not sufficient funds available to completely satisfy these obligations at October 20, 1998.


It was not anticipated that at October 20, 1998, there would be available funds to fully satisfy the unsecured claims of the Limited Partners, as indicated under the Plan.  The limited partners were approached in August 1998 and asked to either approve a sale of the Partnership’s sole investment property or for the General Partner to petition the Bankruptcy Court for an extension of the settlement date.   The required fifty-one percent response was not received. As a result, the Partnership did not make any payments to the Limited Partners on October 20, 1998, as required by the Plan from available funds.  There is no requirement, however, that the Partnership sell or again refinance the property in order to pay in part or in whole, the payments to the Limited Partners referred to above.  The General Partner has determined that although all of the required payments due under the Plan to the Limited Partners were not ma de, that the Partnership is not in any material financial default in connection with its prior bankruptcy.  In addition, the General Partner believes that it is proper for the Partnership to continue operating under the terms of its Partnership Agreement as modified by the Plan.


Since the expiration of the Plan on October 20, 1998, the General Partner had reserved all excess cash to ensure that the Partnership would be able to meet its operating and capital improvement needs rather than making pro-rata payments to the limited partners in accordance with numbers 1, 3, and 4 above.  During the fourth quarter of 2001, the General Partner determined that the Partnership had accumulated approximately $562,000 in excess funds.  Approximately $530,000, which had been reserved since 1998 to ensure that the property was fully able to meet its operating and capital improvement needs with existing operating funds, was distributed during the year ended December 31, 2002 in accordance with number 1 above.  In addition, approximately $32,000 was distributed from operations during the year ended December 31, 2002.  Any additional funds will be distributed in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement as mo dified by the Plan.


Note D - Transactions with Affiliated Parties


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


Affiliates of the General Partner receive 5% of gross receipts from the Partnership's investment property as compensation for providing property management services.  The Partnership paid to such affiliates approximately $21,000 and $16,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, which are included in operating expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.


Affiliates of the General Partner charged the Partnership for reimbursement of accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately $15,000 for both of the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 and are included in general and administrative expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Approximately $328,000 in reimbursement of accountable administrative expenses, including related accrued interest of approximately $51,000, was owed to affiliates of the General Partner at March 31, 2007 and is included in due to affiliates on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.


In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, during the three months ended March 31, 2006 an affiliate of the General Partner advanced the Partnership approximately $64,000 to fund operating expenses. There were no such advances during the three months ended March 31, 2007.  Advances bear interest at the prime rate plus 2% (10.25% at March 31, 2007).  Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 was approximately $49,000 and $40,000, respectively.  At March 31, 2007, the total amount of outstanding advances and accrued interest was approximately $1,962,000 and is included in due to affiliates on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.  


The Partnership insures its property 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 property above the AIMCO limits through insurance policies obtained by AIMCO from insurers unaffiliated with the General Partner. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $47,000 for hazard insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration.  Additional charges will be incurred by the Partnership during 2007 as other insurance policies renew later in the year.  The Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $44,000 for insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration during the year ended December 31, 200 6.


Note E – Contingencies


AIMCO Properties, L.P. and NHP Management Company, both affiliates of the 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 General Partner does not believe that the ultimate outcome will have a material adverse effect on the Partnership 6;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 property 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 property, the Partnership could potentially be liable for environmental liabilities or costs associated with its property.  


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 General Partner have implemented policies, procedures, third-party audits and training and the 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 General Partner can make no assura nce that liabilities resulting from the presence of or exposure to mold will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.







ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION


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


The Partnership's investment property consists of one apartment complex. The following table sets forth the average occupancy of the property for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006:


 

Average Occupancy

Property

2007

2006

   

Lakewood at Pelham

95%

81%

  Greenville, South Carolina

  


The General Partner attributes the increase in occupancy at Lakewood at Pelham to more stable tenant base and increased traffic due to property improvements.


The Partnership’s financial results depend upon a number of factors including the ability to attract and maintain tenants at the investment property, interest rates on mortgage loans, costs incurred to operate the investment property, general economic conditions and weather. As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the General Partner monitors the rental market environment of its investment property 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 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 General Partner may use rental concessions and rental rate reductions to offset softening market conditions; accordingly, there is no guarantee that the General Partner wi ll be able to sustain such a plan. Further, a number of factors which are outside the control of the Partnership such as the local economic climate and weather can adversely or positively impact the Partnership’s financial results.


Results of Operations


The Partnership’s net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was approximately $98,000 as compared to a net loss of approximately $133,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006.  The decrease in net loss is due to an increase in total revenues partially offset by an increase in total expenses.


Total revenues increased for the three months ended March 31, 2007 due to increases in rental and other income.   Rental income increased primarily due to an increase in occupancy and, to a lesser extent, a slight increase in the average rental rate and a decrease in bad debt at the property. Other income increased primarily due to an increase in tenant utility reimbursements.


The increase in total expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2007 is due to increases in operating, depreciation and interest expenses, partially offset by a decrease in general and administrative expenses. Property tax expense remained comparable for both periods. Operating expenses increased due to increases in management fee and administrative expenses. Management fee expense increased due to the increase in rental income discussed above.  Administrative expense increased due to an increase in contract common area cleaning services. Depreciation expense increased as a result of property improvements and replacements placed into service over the past twelve months at the investment property, which are now being depreciated. Interest expense increased due to an increase in interest on advances from an affiliate of the General Partner due to a higher average outstanding balance and an increase in the interest rate charged on such advanc es, and due to an increase in the variable interest rate on the mortgage encumbering the investment property.


General and administrative expense decreased due to a decrease in professional services associated with Partnership matters. Included in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 are cost of services included in the management reimbursements to the General Partner as allowed under the Partnership Agreement. Also included in general and administrative expenses are costs associated with quarterly and annual communications with investors and regulatory agencies and the annual audit required by the Partnership Agreement.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


At March 31, 2007, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $125,000 as compared to approximately $69,000 at March 31, 2006.  The increase in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $32,000, from December 31, 2006, is due to approximately $40,000 of cash provided by operating activities, partially offset by approximately $8,000 of cash used in investing activities. Cash used in investing activities consisted of property improvements and replacements, partially offset by net withdrawals from escrow accounts maintained by the mortgage lender. The Partnership invests its working capital reserves in interest bearing accounts.


The sufficiency of existing liquid assets to meet future liquidity and capital expenditure requirements is directly related to the level of capital expenditures required at the property 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 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 at the Partnership's investment property are detailed below.


During the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Partnership completed approximately $53,000 of capital improvements at Lakewood at Pelham, consisting primarily of floor covering, water heater, and appliance replacements. These improvements were funded from operations 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 as well as replacement reserves and anticipated cash flow generated by the property.


The capital expenditures will be incurred only if cash is available from operations or from Partnership reserves. 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 mortgage encumbering the investment property of approximately $4,350,000 requires monthly payments of interest until maturity in December 1, 2007, with interest being equal to the average of the one-month LIBOR plus 230 basis points (7.62% at March 31, 2007 with a minimum rate of 5.40%).  Subsequent to March 31, 2007, the Partnership exercised its option to extend the maturity from June 1, 2007 to December 1, 2007.  The Partnership has the option of extending the maturity date for an additional six month period upon delivering written notice to the lender, paying an extension fee, no event of default existing and certain performance criteria being met.  In conjunction with the mortgage note, in 2005 the Partnership paid approximately $14,000 to enter into an interest rate cap agreement, which limits the Partnership’s exposure to interest rate increases.  Under this interest rate cap agreement, which expires in June 2007 , the Partnership’s interest rate on the amounts owed to the lender will be no higher than 7.55%. The Partnership has evaluated Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, which was amended by SFAS No. 138 “Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities – an Amendment of SFAS No. 133” and determined that the Partnership’s interest rate cap does not qualify for special hedge accounting treatment as defined by SFAS 133, and therefore all changes in the fair value of the interest rate cap are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations as an adjustment to interest expense. The fair value of the interest rate cap was reduced to zero during the year ended December 31, 2006.  The lender did not require the Partnership to enter into an interest rate cap agreement in conjunction with its exercise of the option to extend the maturity until Decemb er 1, 2007, however the lender reserves the right to require the Partnership to enter into an interest rate cap agreement at a later date.


On March 9, 1987, the original general partners of the Partnership, on behalf of the Partnership, filed a voluntary petition under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code in U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Central District of California ("Court").  The Partnership continued as Debtor-In-Possession to operate its business in the ordinary course until the Court confirmed the Partnership's Plan of Reorganization (The "Plan") effective October 25, 1988.  The Plan was approved by all required classes of creditors.


The Plan required that the Partnership make certain payments to its secured creditors and others on or before October 20, 1995.  These payments were made on or about June 25, 1995, when the Partnership refinanced the outstanding mortgages encumbering the property.  The Plan also required that the Partnership make the following distributions on October 20, 1998, from available cash:


1)

First, Limited Partners, both original and substitute, who made additional capital contributions under the Plan would receive a repayment of the additional contributions totaling approximately $730,000; if sufficient funds were unavailable to fully satisfy this amount then a pro-rata portion would be paid based upon available funds;


2)

Second, Class 12 unsecured creditors ($23,100) would be paid on their claims;


3)

Third, Limited Partners who made additional capital contributions and were original Limited Partners would receive a repayment of their original capital contributions totaling approximately $9,818,000; if sufficient funds were unavailable to fully satisfy this amount then a pro-rata portion of available cash less a pro-rata portion reserved for one third of the existing capital contributions of non-contributing Limited Partners would be paid based upon available funds;


4)

Fourth, Limited Partners who did not make additional capital contributions would receive a repayment of one-third of their original capital contributions (i.e., one-third of $1,200,000); if sufficient funds were unavailable to fully satisfy this amount then a pro-rata portion would be paid based upon available funds.


Additionally, the Plan required CRPTEX, Inc. to make a capital contribution of $14,500 and loan an additional $117,500 on behalf of the Partnership.  The Partnership received the $14,500 capital contribution but did not receive or require the additional $117,500 to be loaned.


The payments required by number 2 above were timely made.  With respect to the amounts due to the Limited Partners under numbers 1, 3, and 4 above, there were not sufficient funds available to completely satisfy these obligations at October 20, 1998.


It was not anticipated that at October 20, 1998, there would be available funds to fully satisfy the unsecured claims of the Limited Partners, as indicated under the Plan.  The limited partners were approached in August 1998 and asked to either approve a sale of the Partnership’s sole investment property or for the General Partner to petition the Bankruptcy Court for an extension of the settlement date.   The required fifty-one percent response was not received. As a result, the Partnership did not make any payments to the Limited Partners on October 20, 1998, as required by the Plan from available funds.  There is no requirement, however, that the Partnership sell or again refinance the property in order to pay in part or in whole, the payments to the Limited Partners referred to above.  The General Partner has determined that although all of the required payments due under the Plan to the Limited Partners were not ma de, that the Partnership is not in any material financial default in connection with its prior bankruptcy.  In addition, the General Partner believes that it is proper for the Partnership to continue operating under the terms of its Partnership Agreement as modified by the Plan.


Since the expiration of the Plan on October 20, 1998, the General Partner had reserved all excess cash to ensure that the Partnership would be able to meet its operating and capital improvement needs rather than making pro-rata payments to the limited partners in accordance with numbers 1, 3, and 4 above.  During the fourth quarter of 2001, the General Partner determined that the Partnership had accumulated approximately $562,000 in excess funds.  Approximately $530,000 which had been reserved since 1998 to ensure that the property was fully able to meet its operating and capital improvement needs with existing operating funds, was distributed during the year ended December 31, 2002 in accordance with number 1 above. In addition, approximately $32,000 was distributed from operations during the year ended December 31, 2002. Any additional funds will be distributed in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement as modified by the Plan. In light of the amounts accrued and payable to affiliates of the General Partner at March 31, 2007, there can be no assurance that the Partnership will generate sufficient funds from operations after required capital improvements to permit any distributions to its partners in 2007 or subsequent periods.


Other


In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partner interests in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 4,558.50 limited partnership units (the “Units”) in the Partnership representing 26.57% of the outstanding Units at March 31, 2007. 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 General Partner.  Although the General Partner owes fiduciary duties to the limited partners of the Partnership, the General Partner also owes fiduciary duties to AIMCO as its sole stockholder.   As a result, the duties of the General Partner, as general partner, to the Partnership and its limited partners may come into conflict with the duties of the 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 Asset


Investment property is 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 the 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 property.  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 asset.


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 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 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


AIMCO Properties, L.P. and NHP Management Company, both affiliates of the 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 20 05 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 General Partner does not believe that the ultimate outcome will have a material adverse effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financi al condition or results of operations.
