Item 5.       OTHER EVENTS

              UPDATES ON POTENTIAL LOAN PAYOFFS

              The following information updates information included in the
              quarterly report for the period ended September 30, 2002 of Krupp
              Government Income Trust II ("GIT II"). GIT II is providing this
              information solely in light of the announcement by Berkshire
              Income Realty, Inc. ("BIR") of its intention to conduct an
              exchange offer for shares. By disclosing the information below,
              GIT II does not intend to indicate that it believes this
              information to be material to shareholders. Moreover, GIT II
              expressly disclaims any obligation to provide periodic updates
              regarding the status of its mortgage portfolio or otherwise, other
              than in its regular quarterly or annual public filings.

              On November 25, 2002, GIT II received $4,488,878, which was a
              payoff of the Sunset Summit Additional Loan. The payoff consisted
              of $1,900,000 for the principal due on the Additional Loan, base
              interest of $33,250, Preferred Interest of $1,532,498 and
              Participating Appreciation Interest of $1,023,130. On December 26,
              2002, GIT II received the proceeds from the Fannie Mae MBS of
              $9,094,934. During the first half of 2003 GIT II will pay a
              special dividend of $0.74 per share from the prepayment of the
              Sunset Summit PIMI.

              On December 30, 2002, GIT II received a prepayment of the Mequon
              Trails PIM participation feature totaling $572,226. The payoff
              consisted of $385,000 of Shared Appreciation Interest and $187,226
              of Minimum Additional Interest and Shared Income Interest. GIT II
              will receive the proceeds from the Fannie Mae MBS portion of the
              Mequon Trails PIM in January 2003 (approximately $13,008,000). GIT
              II will make a special dividend of $0.74 per share from the
              proceeds of the Mequon Trails PIM prepayment during the first half
              of 2003.

              GIT II expects to receive a prepayment of the Oasis at Springtree
              Additional Loan during the first quarter of 2003.

              The borrower on the Crossings Village PIMI has contacted GIT II
              regarding a payoff. GIT II expects that this loan will not be paid
              off until October 2003 at the earliest due to the yield
              maintenance provision on the first mortgage, which underlies the
              Fannie Mae MBS.
