NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)



Note A – Basis of Presentation


The accompanying unaudited financial statements of United Investors Income Properties (the "Partnership" or "Registrant") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X.  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 Partnership’s general partner, United Investors Real Estate, Inc. (the “General Partner” or “UIRE”), a Delaware corporation and a subsidiary of Apartment Investment and Management Company (“AIMCO”), a publicly traded real estate investment trust, 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, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.


Recent Accounting Pronouncement


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 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 adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 157 during the three months ended March 31, 2008, and at that time determined no transition adjustment was required.


Note B - 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 $18,000 and $16,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, 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 $12,000 for each of the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, which is included in general and administrative expenses.


In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, prior to 2007, AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the General Partner, advanced funds to the Partnership. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, interest on advances, at the rate of prime plus 2%, was approximately $3,000.  The entire advance balance was repaid during the third quarter of 2007 with proceeds from the refinancing of the mortgage encumbering Bronson Place Apartments. At March 31, 2008 and 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 three months ended March 31, 2008, the Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $15,000 for hazard insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration.  Additional charges will be incurred by the Partnership during 2008 as other insurance policies renew later in the year. The Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $27,000 for insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration during the year ended December 31, 2007.


Note C - 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.


Note D - Subsequent Event


In April 2008, the Partnership entered into a sale contract with a third party relating to the sale of Defoors Crossing Apartments. This sale contract was terminated by the Purchaser in May 2008. The Partnership determined that certain criteria of SFAS No. 144 were not met at March 31, 2008 and therefore continues to report the assets and liabilities of the investment property as held for investment and its respective operations as continuing operations. The Partnership continues to actively market the property for sale.








ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS

OF OPERATIONS


The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements in certain circumstances. Certain information included in this Report contains or may contain information that is forward-looking, including, without limitation, statements regarding the effect of redevelopments, the Partnership’s future financial performance, including the Partnership’s ability to maintain current or meet projected occupancy and rent levels, and the effect of government regulations. Actual results may differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements and, in addition, will be affected by a variety of risks and factors that are beyond the Partnership’s control including, without limitation: natural disasters such as hurricanes; national and local economic conditions; the general level of interest rates; energy costs; the terms of governmental regulations that affect the Partnership’s property and interpretations of those regulations; the competitive environment in which the Partnership operates; financing risks, including the risk that the Partnership’s cash flows from operations may be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest; real estate risks, including fluctuations in real estate values and the general economic climate in local markets and competition for tenants in such markets; insurance risks; development risks; litigation, including costs associated with prosecuting or defending claims and any adverse outcomes; and possible environmental liabilities, including costs, fines or penalties that may be incurred due to necessary remediation of contamination of properties presently owned or previously owned by the Partnership. Readers should carefully review the Partnership’s financial statements and the notes thereto and the other documents the Partnership files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


The Partnership's investment properties consist of two apartment complexes. The following table sets forth the average occupancy of the properties for each of the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007:


 

Average Occupancy

Property

2008

2007

   

Bronson Place Apartments

99%

98%

Mountlake Terrace, Washington

  

Defoors Crossing Apartments (1)

100%

96%

Atlanta, Georgia

  


(1)

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


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 which are outside the control of the Partnership such as the local economic climate and weather can adversely or positively affect the Partnership’s financial results.







Results of Operations


The Partnership’s net income for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was approximately $12,000, compared to a net loss of approximately $2,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  The increase in net income is due to an increase in total revenues, partially offset by an increase in total expenses.


Total revenues increased due to an increase in rental income. Other income remained relatively constant for the comparable periods.  Rental income increased due to increases in occupancy and the average rental rate at both of the Partnership’s investment properties.  


Total expenses increased due to increases in depreciation and property tax expenses.  Operating, interest and general and administrative 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 at both of the Partnership’s investment properties. Property tax expense increased primarily due to an increase in the assessed value of Defoors Crossing Apartments.


Included in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 are management reimbursements to the General Partner as allowed under the Partnership Agreement, costs associated with the quarterly and annual communications with investors and regulatory agencies and the annual audit required by the Partnership Agreement.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


At March 31, 2008, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $168,000, compared to approximately $106,000 at March 31, 2007.  Cash and cash equivalents increased approximately $16,000, from December 31, 2007, due to approximately $90,000 of cash provided by operating activities, partially offset by approximately $74,000 of cash used in investing activities.  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 are 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.  Capital improvements planned for the Partnership's properties are detailed below.


Bronson Place Apartments


During the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Partnership completed approximately $39,000 of capital improvements at Bronson Place Apartments, consisting primarily of structural improvements. 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 the remainder of 2008. Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as the anticipated cash flow generated by the property.


DeFoors Crossing Apartments


During the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Partnership did not complete any capital improvements at DeFoors Crossing Apartments. 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 the remainder of 2008. Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as the 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.


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% (3.90% per annum at March 31, 2008) 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 will attempt to refinance such indebtedness and/or sell the property prior to such maturity date. If the property cannot be refinanced or sold for a sufficient amount, the Partnership will risk losing such property through foreclosure.  


There were no distributions made to the partners during the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007. 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 capital improvements to permit distributions to its partners during 2008 or subsequent periods.


In April 2008, the Partnership entered into a sale contract with a third party relating to the sale of Defoors Crossing Apartments. This sale contract was terminated by the Purchaser in May 2008. The Partnership determined that certain criteria of SFAS No. 144 were not met at March 31, 2008 and therefore continues to report the assets and liabilities of the investment property as held for investment and its respective operations as continuing operations. The Partnership continues to actively market the property for sale.


Other


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 March 31, 2008. 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 March 31, 2008, 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


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


Impairment of Long-Lived Assets


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


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


Revenue Recognition


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


ITEM 4.

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)

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.


There have been no significant 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.
