PART I


Item 1.

Description of Business


United Investors Income Properties (the "Registrant" or "Partnership"), a Missouri Limited Partnership, was organized as a limited partnership under the laws of the State of Missouri on June 23, 1988.  The Partnership is governed by an Agreement of Limited Partnership dated July 27, 1988. United Investors Real Estate, Inc., a Delaware corporation, is the sole general partner ("UIRE" or the "General Partner") of the Partnership. UIRE 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, 2018 unless terminated prior to such date.


Commencing in May 1988, the Partnership offered, pursuant to a Registration Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), up to a maximum of 80,000 units of limited partnership interest (the "Units") at $250 per Unit with a minimum required purchase of eight Units or $2,000 (four Units or $1,000 for an Individual Retirement Account). The offering of Units terminated May 4, 1990. Upon termination of the offering, the Partnership had accepted subscriptions for 61,063 Units resulting in gross offering proceeds of approximately $15,266,000. Since its initial offering, the Partnership has not received, nor are limited partners required to make, additional capital contributions.  


The Partnership was engaged in the business of acquiring and operating multifamily residential and commercial real estate properties and other income producing real estate.  The Partnership had acquired three multifamily residential properties, a medical office building, and an interest in a joint venture which owned a medical office building. The medical office building, the joint venture and one of the multifamily residential properties were sold prior to 2006. The remaining two properties are residential properties and are further described in "Item 2. Description of Properties".


The Partnership has no employees. Management and administrative services are provided by the General Partner and by agents retained by the General Partner.  Property management services are provided by an affiliate of NHP Management Company (“NHP”), an affiliate of AIMCO.


Risk Factors


The risk factors noted in this section and other factors noted throughout this Report describe certain risks and uncertainties that could cause the Partnership’s actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement.


Failure to generate sufficient net operating income may limit the Partnership’s ability to pay distributions.


The Partnership’s ability to make distributions to its investors depends on its ability to generate net operating income in excess of required debt payments and capital expenditure requirements. Net operating income may be adversely affected by events or conditions beyond the Partnership’s control, including:


the 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;

changes in tax laws and housing laws, including the enactment of rent control laws or other laws regulating multifamily housing; and

changes in interest rates and the availability of financing.


The Partnership’s existing and future debt financing could render it unable to operate, result in foreclosure on its properties or prevent it from making distributions on its equity.


The Partnership’s strategy is generally to incur debt to increase the return on its equity while maintaining acceptable interest coverage ratios. Payments of principal and interest may leave the Partnership with insufficient cash resources to operate its properties or pay distributions.  The Partnership is also subject to the risk that its cash flow from operations will be insufficient to make required payments of principal and interest, and the risk that existing indebtedness may not be refinanced or that the terms of any refinancing will not be as favorable as the terms of existing indebtedness. If the Partnership fails to make required payments of principal and interest on secured debt, its lender could foreclose on the properties securing such debt, which would result in loss of income and asset value to the Partnership.


Competition could limit the Partnership’s ability to lease apartments or increase or maintain rents.


The Partnership’s apartment properties compete for residents with other housing alternatives, including other rental apartments, condominiums and single-family homes that are available for rent, as well as new and existing condominiums and single-family homes for sale. Competitive residential housing in such market area could adversely affect the Partnership’s ability to lease apartments and to increase or maintain rental rates.



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 Partnership believes that its properties are substantially in compliance with present requirements, the Partnership may incur unanticipated expenses to comply with the ADA and the FHAA.


Potential liability or other expenditures associated with potential environmental contamination may be costly.


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.  


Moisture infiltration and resulting mold remediation may be costly.


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 assurance that liabilities resulting from the presence of or exposure to mold will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership’s financial condition or results of operations.


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

On September 21, 2007, the Partnership refinanced the mortgage encumbering Bronson Place Apartments. The refinancing replaced the existing mortgage, which at the time of refinancing had a principal balance of approximately $1,858,000, with a new mortgage loan in the principal amount of approximately $3,451,000. The new loan was refinanced under a secured real estate credit facility (“Secured Credit Facility”) with AEGON USA Realty Advisors, Inc., as agent for Transamerica Occidental Life Insurance Company, which has a maturity of October 1, 2010, with two one-year extension options. The new mortgage requires monthly payments of interest only beginning on November 1, 2007, through the October 1, 2010 maturity date, at which date the entire principal balance of approximately $3,451,000 is due.  The new loan has a variable interest rate of the one-month LIBOR rate plus 0.78% (6.01% per annum at December 31, 2007) and resets monthly.  The variable interest rate may increase to the one-month LIBOR rate plus 0.98% if the debt service coverage ratio of the investment property decreases below a prescribed threshold. The Secured Credit Facility provides mortgage loans on properties owned by other partnerships that are affiliated with the General Partner. The Secured Credit Facility creates separate loans for each property that are not cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with the other property loans. The loans are prepayable without penalty.  As a condition of the Secured Credit Facility, the lender required AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the General Partner, to guarantee certain obligations and liabilities of the Partnership with respect to the new mortgage financing.

The General Partner attributes the increase in occupancy at Defoors Crossing Apartments to increased marketing efforts.


As noted under "Item 1. Description of Business", the real estate industry is highly competitive. Both of the Partnership’s properties are subject to competition from other residential apartment complexes in the localities in which they operate. The General Partner believes that both of the properties are adequately insured. Each residential property is an apartment complex which leases units for lease terms of one year or less. No residential tenant leases 10% or more of the available rental space. Both of the properties are in good physical condition, subject to normal depreciation and deterioration as is typical for assets of this type and age.

Capital Improvements


Bronson Place Apartments


During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Partnership completed approximately $300,000 of capital improvements at Bronson Place Apartments, consisting primarily of major landscaping, exterior painting, cabinet upgrades and floor covering replacement. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow and advances from AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the General Partner.  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 expenditures are anticipated during 2008. Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as anticipated cash flow generated by the property.


DeFoors Crossing Apartments


During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Partnership completed approximately $110,000 of capital improvements at DeFoors Crossing Apartments, consisting primarily of plumbing upgrades, cabinet upgrades and floor covering replacement. 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 expenditures are anticipated during 2008. Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as anticipated cash flow generated by the property.


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.

Legal Proceedings


None.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2007, no matters were submitted to a vote of Unit holders through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise.






PART II


Item 5.

Market for Partnership Equity and Related Partner Matters


The Partnership, a publicly-held limited partnership, offered 80,000 and sold 61,063 Limited Partnership Units (the "Units") during its offering period through May 4, 1990, aggregating approximately $15,266,000. The Partnership currently has 61,063 Units outstanding and 1,081 holders of record. Affiliates of the General Partner and AIMCO owned 24,498 Units or 40.12% at December 31, 2007. No public trading market has developed for the Units, and it is not anticipated that such a market will develop in the future.

Proceeds from the September 2007 refinancing of the mortgage encumbering Bronson Place Apartments.


Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of cash generated from operations, the timing of the debt maturity, property sales and/or financings.  The Partnership’s cash available for distribution is reviewed on a monthly basis. There can be no assurance, however, that the Partnership will generate sufficient funds from operations, after required capital expenditures, to permit distributions to its partners in 2008 or subsequent periods.  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 sole general partner of the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 24,498 Units in the Partnership representing 40.12% of the outstanding Units at December 31, 2007. A number of these Units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. AIMCO or its affiliates may 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. Under 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 40.12% of the outstanding Units at December 31, 2007, AIMCO and its affiliates are in a position to influence 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 6.

Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation


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


The Partnership’s financial results depend upon a number of factors including the ability to attract and maintain tenants at the investment properties, interest rates on mortgage loans, costs incurred to operate the investment properties, general economic conditions and weather.  As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the 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 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 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 recognized net losses of approximately $96,000 and $128,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.  The decrease in net loss is due to an increase in total revenues, partially offset by an increase in total expenses and the recognition of a casualty gain during 2006.  The increase in total revenues is due to increases in both rental and other income. Rental income increased primarily due to increases in both occupancy and the average rental rate at both of the Partnership’s investment properties.  Other income increased primarily due to increases in utility reimbursements and lease cancellation fees at both of the Partnership’s investment properties.


The increase in total expenses is due to increases in depreciation, property tax, interest and general and administrative expenses.  Operating expenses remained relatively constant for the comparable periods. Depreciation expense increased due to property improvements and replacements placed into service during the past twelve months primarily at Bronson Place Apartments.  Property tax expense increased primarily due to an increase in the assessed value of DeFoors Crossing Apartments.  Interest expense increased primarily due to the refinancing of the mortgage encumbering Bronson Place Apartments during the year ended December 31, 2007, as discussed in “Liquidity and Capital Resources”, which resulted in a higher average outstanding debt balance.


The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to an increase in management reimbursements to the General Partner as allowed under the Partnership Agreement. Also included in general and administrative expenses for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 are costs associated with the quarterly and annual communications with investors and regulatory agencies and the annual audit required by the Partnership Agreement.


In March 2006, there was a fire at Bronson Place Apartments, causing damage to one unit. Insurance proceeds of approximately $36,000 were received during the year ended December 31, 2006 to cover the damages. The Partnership recognized a casualty gain of approximately $20,000 as a result of the receipt of insurance proceeds, offset by the write-off of the undepreciated damaged assets of approximately $16,000.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


At December 31, 2007, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $152,000, compared to approximately $73,000 at December 31, 2006.  The increase in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $79,000 is due to approximately $292,000 and $162,000 of cash provided by operating and financing activities, respectively, partially offset by approximately $375,000 of cash used in investing activities.  Cash provided by financing activities consisted of proceeds received from the refinancing of the mortgage encumbering Bronson Place Apartments and advances received from an affiliate of the General Partner, partially offset by the repayment of the previous mortgage encumbering Bronson Place Apartments, distributions to partners, repayment of advances received from an affiliate of the General Partner, loan costs paid and principal payments made on the previous mortgage encumbering Bronson Place Apartments. Cash used in investing activities consisted of property improvements and replacements. 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 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 General Partner monitors developments in the area of legal and regulatory 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 2008. Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the properties as well as anticipated cash flow generated by the properties.


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 Partnership’s assets are thought to be sufficient for any near-term needs (exclusive of capital improvements) of the Partnership.  On September 21, 2007, the Partnership refinanced the mortgage encumbering Bronson Place Apartments. The refinancing replaced the existing mortgage, which at the time of refinancing had a principal balance of approximately $1,858,000, with a new mortgage loan in the principal amount of approximately $3,451,000. The new loan was refinanced under a secured real estate credit facility (“Secured Credit Facility”) with AEGON USA Realty Advisors, Inc., as agent for Transamerica Occidental Life Insurance Company, which has a maturity of October 1, 2010, with two one-year extension options. The new mortgage requires monthly payments of interest only beginning on November 1, 2007, through the October 1, 2010 maturity date, at which date the entire principal balance of approximately $3,451,000 is due.  The new loan has a variable interest rate of the one-month LIBOR rate plus 0.78% (6.01% per annum at December 31, 2007) and resets monthly.  The variable interest rate may increase to the one-month LIBOR rate plus 0.98% if the debt service coverage ratio of the investment property decreases below a prescribed threshold. The Secured Credit Facility provides mortgage loans on properties owned by other partnerships that are affiliated with the General Partner. The Secured Credit Facility creates separate loans for each property that are not cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with the other property loans. The loans are prepayable without penalty.  As a condition of the Secured Credit Facility, the lender required AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the General Partner, to guarantee certain obligations and liabilities of the Partnership with respect to the new mortgage financing.  Total capitalized loan costs in connection with the new mortgage were approximately $66,000 and are included in other assets on the balance sheet included in “Item 7. Financial Statements”.  Loan costs associated with the previous mortgage were fully amortized.

Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of cash generated from operations, the timing of the debt maturity, property sales and/or financings.  The Partnership’s cash available for distribution is reviewed on a monthly basis.  There can be no assurance, however, that the Partnership will generate sufficient funds from operations after required capital expenditures to permit distributions to its partners during 2008 or subsequent periods.


Other


In addition to its indirect ownership of the sole general partner of the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 24,498 Units in the Partnership representing 40.12% of the outstanding Units at December 31, 2007. A number of these Units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. AIMCO or its affiliates may 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. Under 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 40.12% of the outstanding Units at December 31, 2007, AIMCO and its affiliates are in a position to influence 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.


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 financial statements in "Item 7. Financial Statements". The General Partner believes that the consistent application of these policies enables the Partnership to provide readers of the financial statements with useful and reliable information about the Partnership’s operating results and financial condition.  The preparation of 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.

The Partners

United Investors Income Properties



We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of United Investors Income Properties as of December 31, 2007, and the related statements of operations, changes in partners' (deficiency) capital, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2007. 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 financial position of United Investors Income Properties at December 31, 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

December 31, 2007


Note A - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Organization: United Investors Income Properties (the "Registrant" or "Partnership"), a Missouri Limited Partnership, was organized as a limited partnership under the laws of the State of Missouri on June 23, 1988.  The Partnership is governed by an Agreement of Limited Partnership dated July 27, 1988. United Investors Real Estate, Inc., a Delaware corporation, is the sole general partner ("UIRE" or the "General Partner") of the Partnership. UIRE 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, 2018 unless terminated prior to such date. As of December 31, 2007, the Partnership operates one residential property in the northwest and one residential property in the south.


Cash and cash equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents includes 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 $106,000 at December 31, 2007 that are maintained by an affiliated management company on behalf of affiliated entities in cash concentration accounts.


Allocations of profits, losses and distributions: In accordance with the Partnership’s agreement of limited partnership (the “Partnership Agreement”), all operating profits, losses and distributions are to be allocated 1% to the General Partner and 99% to the limited partners. Profits from the sale of an investment property are allocated in accordance with the Partnership Agreement.


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. Deposits are refunded when the tenant vacates, provided the tenant has not damaged the space and is current on rental payments.


Investment Properties: Investment properties consist of two 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, 2007 and 2006.  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 ended December 31, 2007 and 2006.


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 depreciation of (1) real property over 27.5 years and (2) personal property additions over 5 years.


Deferred Costs: Loan costs of approximately $66,000, less accumulated amortization of approximately $5,000, are included in other assets and are amortized over the term of the related loan agreement.  Amortization expense for 2007 and 2006 of approximately $38,000 and $43,000, respectively, is included in interest expense on the accompanying statements of operations. Amortization expense is expected to be approximately $22,000 for both 2008 and 2009 and approximately $17,000 for 2010.


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.


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 amount of its financial instruments (except for long term debt) approximates their fair value due to the short term maturity of these instruments. The fair value of the Partnership’s long term debt at the Partnership’s incremental borrowing rate approximates its carrying value.


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.


Use of Estimates: The preparation of 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 financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Advertising: The Partnership expenses the costs of advertising as incurred. Advertising expense was approximately $68,000 and $53,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and is included in operating expenses.


Segment Reporting: SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information", established standards for the way that 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.



Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2006 balances to conform to the 2007 presentation.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“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 at the measurement date. 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. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157”, which deferred the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for all nonrecurring fair value measurements of non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008.  The provisions of SFAS No. 157 are applicable to recurring fair value measurements of financial assets and liabilities for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, which for the Partnership is generally limited to annual disclosures required by SFAS No. 107.  The Partnership is in the process of implementing SFAS No. 157; however, it has not completed its evaluation and thus has not yet determined the effect that SFAS No. 157 will have on the Partnership’s 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 adopted SFAS No. 159 on January 1, 2008, and at that time did not elect the fair value option for any of its financial instruments or other items within the scope of SFAS No. 159.


In June 2007, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the “AICPA”) issued Statement of Position No. 07-1, “Clarification of the Scope of the Audit and Accounting Guide Investment Companies and Accounting by Parent Companies and Equity Method Investors for Investments in Investment Companies” ("SOP 07-1").  SOP 07-1 provides guidance for determining whether the accounting principles of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide “Investment Companies” are required to be applied to an entity by clarifying the definition of an investment company and, whether investment company accounting should be retained by a parent company upon consolidation of an investment company subsidiary, or by an investor in the application of the equity method of accounting to an investment company investee. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position SOP 07-1-1 that indefinitely defers the effective date of SOP 07-1.

Adjustable rate based on the one-month LIBOR rate plus 0.78%. The rate at December 31, 2007 was 6.01%.


On September 21, 2007, the Partnership refinanced the mortgage encumbering Bronson Place Apartments. The refinancing replaced the existing mortgage, which at the time of refinancing had a principal balance of approximately $1,858,000, with a new mortgage loan in the principal amount of approximately $3,451,000. The new loan was refinanced under a secured real estate credit facility (“Secured Credit Facility”) with AEGON USA Realty Advisors, Inc., as agent for Transamerica Occidental Life Insurance Company, which has a maturity of October 1, 2010, with two one-year extension options. The new mortgage requires monthly payments of interest only beginning on November 1, 2007, through the October 1, 2010 maturity date, at which date the entire principal balance of approximately $3,451,000 is due.  The new loan has a variable interest rate of the one-month LIBOR rate plus 0.78% (6.01% per annum at December 31, 2007) and resets monthly.  The variable interest rate may increase to the one-month LIBOR rate plus 0.98% if the debt service coverage ratio of the investment property decreases below a prescribed threshold. The Secured Credit Facility provides mortgage loans on properties owned by other partnerships that are affiliated with the General Partner. The Secured Credit Facility creates separate loans for each property that are not cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with the other property loans. The loans are prepayable without penalty.  As a condition of the Secured Credit Facility, the lender required AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the General Partner, to guarantee certain obligations and liabilities of the Partnership with respect to the new mortgage financing.  Total capitalized loan costs in connection with the new mortgage were approximately $66,000 and are included in other assets.  Loan costs associated with the previous mortgage were fully amortized.


The mortgage note payable is non-recourse and is secured by a pledge of Bronson Place Apartments and revenues generated by the property. Further, the property may not be sold subject to existing indebtedness.

The aggregate cost of the real estate for Federal income tax purposes at December 31, 2007 and 2006 is approximately $8,630,000 and $8,220,000, respectively. The accumulated depreciation taken for Federal income tax purposes at December 31, 2007 and 2006 is approximately $4,562,000 and $4,122,000, respectively.


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 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 both of the Partnership's properties as compensation for providing property management services. The Partnership paid to such affiliates approximately $69,000 and $59,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, which are included in operating expenses.


An affiliate of the General Partner charged the Partnership for reimbursement of accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately $50,000 and $40,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expenses.


In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, during the year ended December 31, 2007, AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the General Partner, advanced approximately $171,000 to the Partnership to fund capital improvements, operating expenses and costs associated with the September 2007 refinancing of the mortgage encumbering Bronson Place Apartments. During the year ended December 31, 2006, AIMCO Properties, L.P. advanced approximately $105,000 to the Partnership to fund operating expenses at both of the Partnership’s investment properties.  During the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, interest on advances, at the rate of prime plus 2%, was approximately $8,000 and $3,000, respectively.  During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Partnership repaid approximately $276,000 and $11,000, respectively, of advances and associated accrued interest from proceeds from the refinancing of the mortgage encumbering Bronson Place Apartments. There were no such payments made during the year ended December 31, 2006. At December 31, 2007, there were no advances or associated accrued interest due to AIMCO Properties, L.P. The Partnership may receive additional advances of funds from AIMCO Properties, L.P. although AIMCO Properties, L.P. is not obligated to provide such advances. For more information on AIMCO Properties, L.P., including copies of its audited balance sheet, please see its reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


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 General Partner. During the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $27,000 and $25,000, respectively, for insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration.


In addition to its indirect ownership of the sole general partner of the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 24,498 limited partnership units (the "Units") in the Partnership representing 40.12% of the outstanding Units at December 31, 2007. A number of these Units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. AIMCO or its affiliates may 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. As a result of its ownership of 40.12% of the outstanding Units at December 31, 2007, AIMCO and its affiliates are in a position to influence 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.








Note E – Casualty Event


In March 2006, there was a fire at Bronson Place Apartments, causing damage to one unit. Insurance proceeds of approximately $36,000 were received during the year ended December 31, 2006 to cover the damages. The Partnership recognized a casualty gain of approximately $20,000 as a result of the receipt of insurance proceeds, offset by the write-off of the undepreciated damaged assets of approximately $16,000.


Note F - Income Taxes


The Partnership is classified as a partnership for Federal income tax purposes.  Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is made in the financial statements of the Partnership. Taxable income or loss of the Partnership is reported in the income tax returns of its partners.


The following is a reconciliation between net loss as reported in the financial statements and Federal taxable loss allocated to the partners in the Partnership's tax return for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 (in thousands, except unit data):

Note G – Contingencies


The Partnership is unaware of any 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 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 assurance that liabilities resulting from the presence of or exposure to mold will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership’s financial condition or results of operations.

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 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 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.  


Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting


The Partnership’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the principal executive and principal financial officers of the General Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, and effected by the Partnership’s management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:


·

pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of assets;


·

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Partnership’s management; and


·

provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.


Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.


The Partnership’s management assessed the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007.  In making this assessment, the Partnership’s management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.


Based on their assessment, the Partnership’s management concluded that, as of December 31, 2007, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting is effective.


This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Partnership’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to the attestation by the Partnership’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Partnership to provide only management’s report in this annual report.


(b)

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.


There have been no significant changes in the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fourth quarter of 2007 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence


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 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 both of the Partnership's properties as compensation for providing property management services. The Partnership paid to such affiliates approximately $69,000 and $59,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, which are included in operating expenses on the statements of operations included in “Item 7.

In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, during the year ended December 31, 2007, AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the General Partner, advanced approximately $171,000 to the Partnership to fund capital improvements, operating expenses and costs associated with the September 2007 refinancing of the mortgage encumbering Bronson Place Apartments. During the year ended December 31, 2006, AIMCO Properties, L.P. advanced approximately $105,000 to the Partnership to fund operating expenses at both of the Partnership’s investment properties.  During the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, interest on advances, at the rate of prime plus 2%, was approximately $8,000 and $3,000, respectively.  During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Partnership repaid approximately $276,000 and $11,000, respectively, of advances and associated accrued interest from proceeds from the refinancing of the mortgage encumbering Bronson Place Apartments. There were no such payments made during the year ended December 31, 2006. At December 31, 2007, there were no advances or associated accrued interest due to AIMCO Properties, L.P.

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 General Partner. During the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $27,000 and $25,000, respectively, for insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration.

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 40.12% of the outstanding Units at December 31, 2007, AIMCO and its affiliates are in a position to influence 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.
