NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note A – Basis of Presentation

As of December 31, 2005, Multi Benefit Realty Fund ’87-1 (the “Partnership” or “Registrant”) adopted the liquidation basis of accounting due to the sale of its remaining investment property (as discussed in “Note B – Disposition of Investment Property”).

As a result of the decision to liquidate the Partnership, the Partnership changed its basis of accounting for its consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2005, to the liquidation basis of accounting. Consequently, assets have been valued at estimated net realizable value and liabilities are presented at their estimated settlement amounts, including estimated costs associated with carrying out the liquidation of the Partnership. The valuation of assets and liabilities necessarily requires many estimates and assumptions and there are substantial uncertainties in carrying out the liquidation. The actual realization of assets and settlement of liabilities could be higher or lower than amounts indicated and is based upon the General Partner’s estimates as of the date of the consolidated financial statements.

The general partner of the Partnership, ConCap Equities, Inc. (“CEI” or the “General Partner”) an affiliate of Apartment Investment and Management Company (“AIMCO”), a publicly traded real estate investment trust, estimates that the liquidation process will be completed by December 31, 2006. Because the success in realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities is based on the General Partner’s best estimates, the liquidation period may be shorter than projected or it may be extended beyond the projected period.

Limited Partnership Units

The Partnership has issued two classes of Units of Depositary Receipts ("Units"), "A" Units and "B" Units. The two classes of Units are entitled to different rights and priorities as to cash distributions and Partnership allocations. The Units represent economic rights attributable to the limited partnership interests in the Partnership and entitle the holders thereof ("Unit holders") to participate in certain allocations and distributions of the Partnership.

Note B – Disposition of Investment Property

On December 1, 2005, the Partnership sold its sole investment property, Hunt Club Apartments, to a third party. In addition to Hunt Club, the third party also purchased four other apartment complexes, each of which was owned in whole or in part by affiliates of AIMCO, an affiliate of the General Partner. The total sales price for Hunt Club Apartments and the four other properties was approximately $38,501,000 of which approximately $4,552,000 was allocated to Hunt Club Apartments. The net proceeds realized by the Partnership were approximately $3,592,000 after payment of closing costs and a prepayment penalty paid by the purchaser. The Partnership used approximately $3,396,000 to repay the mortgage encumbering the property. The Partnership realized a gain of approximately $2,138,000 as a result of the sale. In addition, the Partnership recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $1,020,000 as a result of the write-off of unamortized loan costs of approximately $99,000 and a prepayment penalty of approximately $921,000 which was paid by the purchaser.

Note C – Deficit Restoration

As of December 31, 2005, the Partnership adopted the liquidation basis of accounting due to the sale of its remaining investment property. Per the Partnership Agreement, if the General Partner has a deficit balance in its capital account, on a tax basis, following the liquidation of the Partnership, it shall be unconditionally obligated to restore the amount of such deficit balance to the Partnership in cash within 90 days. The Partnership recorded a receivable from the General Partner at December 31, 2005 of approximately $1,492,000 to restore the General Partner’s deficit tax basis balance. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, this balance was received from the General Partner.

Note D – Distributions

Upon receipt of the deficit restoration funds, the Partnership distributed approximately $437,000 to the “B” unitholders (approximately $5.81 per “B” unit) during the six months ended June 30, 2006.

Note E – Casualty Gain

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, a net casualty gain of approximately $26,000 was recorded at Hunt Club Apartments. The casualty gain related to a fire, occurring in March 2005, which caused damage to three units at the property. The gain was the result of the receipt of insurance proceeds of approximately $32,000 offset by approximately $6,000 of undepreciated property improvements and replacements being written off.

Note F - 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 (i) payments to affiliates for services and (ii) reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by affiliates on behalf of the Partnership.

Affiliates of the General Partner received 5% of gross receipts from the Partnership's property as compensation for providing property management services. The Partnership paid to such affiliates approximately $35,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, which was included in operating expenses.

Affiliates of the General Partner charged the Partnership for reimbursement of accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately $49,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, which was included in general and administrative expenses.

The Partnership Agreement also provided for a special management fee equal to 9% of distributable cash from operations (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) received by the limited partners to be paid to the General Partner for executive and administrative management services. There were no such fees earned for the six months ended June 30, 2005 as there were no operating distributions.

In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, an affiliate of the General Partner loaned the Partnership approximately $92,000 during the fourth quarter of 2004 and approximately $358,000 during the year ended December 31, 2005 to fund capital projects and accounts payable at the Partnership’s sole property. Interest accrued at the prime rate plus 2% and amounted to approximately $5,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005. During the year ended December 31, 2005 the Partnership repaid approximately $18,000 of advances and accrued interest. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Partnership repaid approximately $452,000 of advances and accrued interest which were outstanding at December 31, 2005. No amounts were owed at June 30, 2006.

The Partnership insured 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 insured its property above the AIMCO limits through insurance policies obtained by AIMCO from insurers unaffiliated with the General Partner. During the six months ended June 30, 2005, the Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $21,000 for hazard insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration.

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 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 General Partner entities by Insignia Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia") and entities that were, at one time, affiliates of Insignia; past tender offers by the Insignia affiliates to acquire limited partnership units; management of the partnerships by the Insignia affiliates; and the series of transactions which closed on October 1, 1998 and February 26, 1999 whereby Insignia and Insignia Properties Trust, respectively, were merged into AIMCO. The plaintiffs sought monetary damages and equitable relief, including judicial dissolution of the Partnership. In addition, during the third quarter of 2001, a complaint captioned Heller v. Insignia Financial Group (the "Heller action") was filed against the same defendants that are named in the Nuanes action. On or about August 6, 2001, plaintiffs filed a first amended complaint. The Heller action was brought as a purported derivative action, and asserted claims for, among other things, breach of fiduciary duty, unfair competition, conversion, unjust enrichment, and judicial dissolution. On January 28, 2002, the trial court granted defendants motion to strike the complaint. Plaintiffs took an appeal from this order.

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

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

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

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

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; litigation, including costs associated with prosecuting and defending claims 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.

Results from Operations

As of December 31, 2005, the Partnership adopted the liquidation basis of accounting, due to the sale of its remaining investment property.

As a result of the decision to liquidate the Partnership, the Partnership changed its basis of accounting for its consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2005, to the liquidation basis of accounting. Consequently, assets have been valued at estimated net realizable value and liabilities are presented at their estimated settlement amounts, including estimated costs associated with carrying out the liquidation of the Partnership. The valuation of assets and liabilities necessarily requires many estimates and assumptions and there are substantial uncertainties in carrying out the liquidation. The actual realization of assets and settlement of liabilities could be higher or lower than amounts indicated and is based upon estimates of the General Partner as of the date of the consolidated financial statements.

During the six months ended June 30, 2006, net assets in liquidation decreased by approximately $407,000. The decrease in net assets in liquidation is primarily due to decreases in due from General Partner, receivables and deposits and an increase in other liabilities, partially offset by an increase in cash and cash equivalents and decreases in accounts payable, due to affiliates and estimated costs during the period of liquidation. The decrease in due from General Partner and the increase in cash and cash equivalents is due to the Partnership receiving the deficit restoration contribution from the General Partner. The decrease in receivables and deposits is due to the collection of receivables relating to the sale of the Partnership’s investment property. The decrease in due to affiliates is due to the Partnership’s repayment of advances from an affiliate of the General Partner. The decrease in accounts payable is due to the payment of trailing payables relating to the sale of the Partnership’s investment property.

The statement of net assets in liquidation as of June 30, 2006 includes approximately $43,000 of costs that the General Partner estimates will be incurred during the period of liquidation, based on the assumption that the liquidation process will be completed by December 31, 2006. Because the success in realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities, including liabilities related to the legal cases discussed in “Item 1. Financial Statements - Note G – Contingencies” to the consolidated financial statements, is based on the General Partner’s best estimates, the liquidation period may be shorter than projected or extended beyond December 31, 2006, the projected date of liquidation.

During the six months ended June 30, 2006, a distribution of approximately $437,000 was made to the “B” unitholders (approximately $5.81 per “B” unit). The distribution was made from deficit restoration funds of approximately $1,492,000 required to be contributed by the General Partner upon liquidation of the Partnership as defined in the partnership agreement. There were no distributions made during the six months ended June 30, 2005.

Future cash distributions will depend on the amount of cash remaining after fully liquidating the Partnership. The Partnership’s cash available for distributions will be reviewed on a quarterly basis. There can be no assurance, however, that the Partnership will have any funds available after liquidation to permit distributions to its partners in 2006.

Other

In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partner interest in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 63,163 "A" and 40,151 "B" Units of Depository Receipts ("Units") in the Partnership representing 65.60% and 53.43% of the outstanding "A" and "B" Units, respectively, at June 30, 2006. A number of these units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. 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. As a result of its ownership of 65.60% and 53.43% of the outstanding "A" and "B" Units, respectively, AIMCO and its affiliates are in a position to control all such voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. 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.

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.
