Organization

 

Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund III L.P. (the “Fund”) is a limited partnership formed under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act as of September 19, 1991.  Effective as of June 1, 2001, there was a restructuring and, as a result, the Fund’s general partner was reorganized as follows.  The general partner of the Fund continues to be Boston Capital Associates III L.P., a Delaware limited partnership.  The general partner of the general partner is now BCA Associates Limited Partnership, a Massachusetts limited partnership, whose sole general partner is C&M Management, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation.  John P. Manning is the principal of Boston Capital Partners, Inc.  The limited partner of the general partner is Capital Investment Holdings, a general partnership whose partners are certain officers and employees of Boston Capital Partners, Inc., and its affiliates.  The assignor limited partner is BCTC III Assignor Corp., a Delaware corporation which is wholly-owned by John P. Manning.

 

The assignor limited partner was formed for the purpose of serving in that capacity for the Fund and will not engage in any other business. Units of beneficial interest in the limited partnership interest of the assignor limited partner are assigned by the assignor limited partner by means of beneficial assignee certificates (“BACs”) to investors and investors are entitled to all the rights and economic benefits of a limited partner of the Fund, including rights to a percentage of the income, gains, losses, deductions, credits and distributions of the Fund.

 

A Registration Statement on Form S-11 and the related prospectus, as supplemented (together with each subsequently filed prospectus, as supplemented, the “Prospectus”) was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and became effective January 24, 1992 in connection with a public offering (together with each subsequent offering of BACs described herein, the “Offering”) in one or more series of a minimum of 250,000 BACs and a maximum of 20,000,000 BACs at $10 per BAC.  On September 4, 1993 the Fund filed Form S-11 with the Securities and Exchange Commission which registered an additional 2,000,000 BACs at $10 per BAC for sale to the public in one or more series.  The registration for additional BACs became effective on October 6, 1993.  As of March 31, 2008, subscriptions had been received and accepted by the General Partner in Series 15, 16, 17, 18 and 19 for 21,996,102 BACs, representing capital contributions of $219,961,020.  The Fund issued the last BACs in Series 19 on December 17, 1993.  This concluded the Offering of the Fund.

 

The Offering, including information regarding the issuance of BACs in series, is described in each Prospectus, as supplemented, under the caption “The Offering”, which descriptions are incorporated herein by reference.

Description of Business

 

The Fund’s principal business is to invest as a limited partner in other limited partnerships (the “Operating Partnerships”) each of which will own or lease and will operate an apartment complex exclusively or partially for low- and moderate-income tenants.  Each Operating Partnership in which the Fund invests owns apartment complexes, which are completed, newly constructed, under construction or rehabilitation, or to-be constructed or rehabilitated, and which are expected to receive government assistance.  Each apartment complex is expected to qualify for the low-income housing tax credit under Section 42 of the Code (the “Federal Housing Tax Credit”), providing tax benefits over a period of ten to twelve years in the form of tax credits which investors may use to offset income, subject to strict limitations, from other sources.  Some apartment complexes may also qualify for the historic rehabilitation tax credit under Section 47 of the Code (the “Rehabilitation Tax Credit”).  The Federal Housing Tax Credit and the government assistance programs are described on pages 37 to 51 of the Prospectus, as supplemented, under the captions “Tax Credit Programs” and “Government Assistance Programs,” which is incorporated herein by reference.  Section 236 (f) (ii) of the National Housing Act, as amended, and Section 101 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1965, as amended, each provide for the making by HUD of rent supplement payments to low income tenants in properties which receive other forms of federal assistance including tax credits.  The payments for each tenant, which are made directly to the owner of their property, generally are in amounts to enable the tenant to pay rent equal to 30% of the adjusted family income.  Some of the apartment complexes in which the Fund has invested are receiving such rent supplements from HUD. HUD has been in the process of converting rent supplement assistance to assistance paid not to the owner of the apartment complex, but directly to the individuals.  At this time, the Fund is unable to predict whether Congress will continue rent supplement programs payable directly to owners of apartment complexes.

 

As of March 31, 2008 the Fund had invested in 58 Operating Partnerships on behalf of Series 15, 61 Operating Partnerships on behalf of Series 16, 47 Operating Partnerships on behalf of Series 17, 34 Operating Partnerships on behalf of Series 18 and 26 Operating Partnerships on behalf of Series 19.  A description of these Operating Partnerships is set forth in Item 2 herein.

 

The business objectives of the Fund are to:

 

(1)       provide current tax benefits to investors in the form of Federal Housing Tax Credits, and in limited instances, a small amount of Rehabilitation Tax Credits, which an investor may apply, subject to strict limitations, against the investor’s federal income tax liability from active, portfolio and passive income;

 

(2)       provide tax benefits in the form of passive losses which an investor may apply to offset his passive income (if any); and

 

(3)       preserve and protect the Fund’s capital and provide capital appreciation and cash distributions through increases in value of the Fund’s investments and, to the extent applicable, equity buildup through periodic payments on the mortgage indebtedness with respect to the apartment complexes.

The business objectives and investment policies of the Fund are described more fully on pages 30 to 37 of the Prospectus, as supplemented, under the caption “Investment Objectives and Acquisition Policies,” which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Employees

 

The Fund does not have any employees.  Services are performed by the general partner and its affiliates and agents retained by them.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

As used in this Item 1A, references to “we, “us” and “our” mean the Fund.

 

An investment in our BACs and our investments in Operating Partnerships are subject to risks. These risks may impact the tax benefits of an investment in our BACs, and the amount of proceeds available for distribution to our limited partners, if any, on liquidation of our investments.

 

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the following factors which could materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. The risks described below are not the only risks we face. Additional factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business operations.

 

The ability of limited partners to claim tax losses from their investment in us is limited.

 

The IRS may audit us or an Operating Partnership and challenge the tax treatment of tax items. The amount of Low Income Housing Tax Credits and tax losses allocable to the investors could be reduced if the IRS were successful in such a challenge.  The alternative minimum tax could reduce tax benefits from an investment in our BACs.  Changes in tax laws could also impact the tax benefits from an investment in our BACs and/or the value of the Operating Partnerships.  Until the Operating Partnerships have completed a mandatory fifteen year Low Income Housing Tax Credit compliance period, investors are at risk for potential recapture of Low Income Housing Tax Credits that have already been claimed.

 

The Low Income Housing Tax Credits rules are extremely complicated and noncompliance with these rules may have adverse consequences for BAC holders.

 

Noncompliance with applicable tax regulations may result in the loss of future Low Income Housing Tax Credits and the fractional recapture of Low Income Housing Tax Credits already taken. In most cases the annual amount of Low Income Housing Tax Credits that an individual can use is limited to the tax liability due on the person’s last $25,000 of taxable income.  The Operating Partnerships may be sold at a price which would not result in our realizing cash distributions or proceeds from the transaction.  Accordingly, we may be unable to distribute any cash to our investors. Low Income Housing Tax Credits may be the only benefit from an investment in our BACs.

 

3



 

Poor performance of one housing complex, or the real estate market generally, could impair our ability to satisfy our investment objectives.

 

Each housing complex is subject to mortgage indebtedness. If an Operating Partnership failed to pay its mortgage, it could lose its housing complex in foreclosure. If foreclosure were to occur during the first 15 years of the existence of the Fund, the loss of any remaining future Low Income Housing Tax Credits, a fractional recapture of previously claimed Low Income Housing Tax Credits, and a loss of our investment in the housing complex would occur.  To the extent the Operating Partnerships receive government financing or operating subsidies, they may be subject to one or more of the following risks:

 

·      difficulties in obtaining rent increases;

·      limitations on cash distributions;

·      limitations on sales or refinancing of Operating Partnerships;

·      limitations on transfers of interests in Operating Partnerships;

·      limitations on removal of local general partners;

·      limitations on subsidy programs; and

·      possible changes in applicable regulations.

 

The value of real estate is subject to risks from fluctuating economic conditions, including employment rates, inflation, tax, environmental, land use and zoning policies, supply and demand of similar properties, and neighborhood conditions, among others.

 

No trading market for the BACs exists or is expected to develop.

 

There is currently no active trading market for the BACs.  Accordingly, limited partners may be unable to sell their BACs or may have to sell BACs at a discount.  Limited partners should consider their BACs to be a long-term investment.

 

Investors may realize taxable gain on sale or disposition of BACs.

 

Upon the sale or other taxable disposition of BACs, investors will realize taxable income to the extent that their allocable share of the non-recourse mortgage indebtedness on the apartment complexes, together with the money they receive from the sale of the BACs, is greater than the original cost of their BACs.  This realized taxable income is reduced to the extent that investors have suspended passive losses or credits.  It is possible that the sale of BACs may not generate enough cash to pay the tax obligations arising from the sale.

 

Investors may have tax liability in excess of cash.

 

Investors eventually may be allocated profits for tax purposes, which exceed any cash distributed to them.  Under these circumstances, unless an investor has passive losses or credits to reduce this tax liability, the investor will have to pay federal income tax without a corresponding cash distribution.  Similarly, in the event of a sale or foreclosure of an apartment complex or a sale of BACs, an investor may be allocated taxable income, resulting in tax liability, in excess of any cash distributed to him or her as a result of the event.

 

4



 

Investors may not receive cash if apartment complexes are sold.

 

There is no assurance that investors will receive any cash distributions from the sale or refinancing of an apartment complex.  The price at which an apartment complex is sold may not be large enough to pay the mortgage and other expenses which must be paid at such time.  Even if there are net cash proceeds from a sale distributed to the Fund, expenses such as accrued management fees and unpaid loans will be deducted pursuant to Section 4.02(a) of the Fund Agreement.  If any of these events happen, investors will not get all of their investment back, and the only benefit from an investment will be the tax credits received.

 

The sale or refinancing of the apartment complexes is dependent upon the following material factors:

 

·    The necessity of obtaining the consent of the operating general partners;

·    The necessity of obtaining the approval of any governmental agency(ies) providing government assistance to the apartment complex; and

·    The uncertainty of the market.

 

Any sale may occur well after the fifteen-year federal housing tax credit compliance period.

 

We have insufficient sources of cash to pay our existing liabilities.

 

We currently do not have sufficient cash resources to satisfy our financial liabilities.  Furthermore, we do not anticipate that we will have sufficient available cash to pay our future financial liabilities.  Substantially all of our existing liabilities are payable to our general partner and its affiliates.  Though the amounts payable to the General Partner and its affiliates are contractually currently payable, we do not believe that the General Partner or its affiliates will demand immediate payment of these contractual obligations in the near term; however, there can be no assurance that this will be the case.  We would be materially adversely affected if the general partner or its affiliates demanded payment in the near term of our existing contractual liabilities or suspended the provision of services to us because of our inability to satisfy these obligations.   All monies currently deposited, or that will be deposited in the future, into the Fund’s working capital reserves are intended to be utilized to pay our existing and future liabilities.

Not applicable.

 

Item 2.            Properties

 

The Fund has acquired a limited partnership interest in 226 Operating Partnerships in five series, identified in the table set forth below.  In each instance the apartment complexes owned by the applicable Operating Partnership is eligible for the Federal Housing Tax Credit.  Initial occupancy of a unit in each apartment complex which complied with the minimum set-aside test  (i.e., initial occupancy by tenants with incomes equal to no more than a

 

5



 

designated percentage of area median income) and the rent restriction test (i.e., gross rent charged tenants does not exceed 30% of the applicable income standards) is referred to as “Qualified Occupancy.”  Each of the Operating Partnerships and each of the respective apartment complexes are described more fully in the Prospectus or applicable Report on Form 8-K.  The general partner believes that there is adequate casualty insurance on the properties.

 

Please refer to Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for a more detailed discussion of operational difficulties experienced by certain of the Operating Partnerships.

Results of Operations

 

The Fund incurred an annual fund management fee to the general partner and/or its affiliates in an amount equal to 0.5% of the aggregate cost of the apartment complexes owned by the Operating Partnerships, less the amount of various partnership management and reporting fees paid or payable by the Operating Partnerships.  The annual fund management fee incurred, net of reporting fees received for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, was $2,073,124 and $2,138,666, respectively.

 

The Fund’s investment objectives do not include receipt of significant cash distributions from the Operating Partnerships in which it has invested or intends to invest.  The Fund’s investments in Operating Partnerships have been and will be made principally with a view towards realization of Federal Housing Tax Credits for allocation to its partners and BAC holders.

 

(Series 15).  As of March 31, 2008 and 2007, the average Qualified Occupancy for the series was 100% and 99.9%, respectively.  The series had a total of 58 properties at March 31, 2008, all of which were at 100% Qualified Occupancy.

 

For the tax years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the series, in total, generated $3,135,833 and $2,103,420, respectively, in passive income tax losses that were passed through to the investors and also provided $0.24 and $0.00, respectively, in tax credits per BAC to the investors. The Operating Partnerships were allocated tax credits for 10 years.  Based on each Operating Partnership’s lease-up, the total credits could be spread over as many as 13 years.  In cases where the actual number of years is more than 10, the credits delivered in the early and later years will be less than the maximum allowable per year.

 

As of March 31, 2008 and 2007, Investments in Operating Partnerships for Series 15 was $209,560 and $361,924, respectively.  Investments in Operating Partnerships was affected by the way the Fund accounts for its investments, the equity method.  By using the equity method the Fund adjusts its investment cost for its share of each Operating Partnership’s results of operations and for any distributions received or accrued.

 

For the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, the net income (loss) for series 15 was $(525,430) and $516,570, respectively.  The major components of these amounts are the Fund’s share of income (losses) from Operating Partnership and

the fund management fee. The variances in net income is due to the income (losses) recorded from the dispositions of Operating Partnerships in the prior year.

Beckwood Manor Eight Limited Partnership (Lakeside Apartments) is a 32-unit, senior property, located in Lake Village, Arkansas.  Occupancy averaged 70% in the first quarter of 2008, a slight decrease from 2007. The local economy remains challenging in nature due to an abundance of low income tax credit units available for rent in the area.  According to the operating general partner, the supply in the marketplace continues to exceed the demand. The new leasing incentive is three months of free electricity.  In an effort to increase rental traffic to the property, the management company continues to advertise heavily in surrounding area newspapers. The operating general partner has taken a proactive initiative in reducing operating expenses in 2007.  The property operated below breakeven in 2007.  The mortgage payments, taxes, insurance, and accounts payables are all current.

 

Livingston Plaza, Limited (Livingston Plaza) is a 24-unit, family property located in Livingston, Texas. In 2007 the property operated below breakeven due to an average occupancy of only 61%. Occupancy suffered in 2007 as a result of an increase in security issues at the property, such as violent behavior and vandalism.  To address these issues, the management hired a full time security person and evicted the problem residents. However, later in the year the management made a decision to eliminate the security officer position due to limited funds. As a result, in the third and fourth quarters, vandalism and drug activity increased causing the average physical occupancy to again drop. As of December 2007, physical occupancy was 58% and the property was unable to breakeven. Through the first quarter 2008, the property continues to struggle with occupancy. However, as of March 2008, the property’s occupancy increased to 71%.  Low occupancy is largely a result of property’s increasingly poor reputation. In February 2008, the management replaced the property’s site manager. To improve the reputation of the property, the new manager immediately implemented both an improved resident screening program, which scores each potential resident, as well as a strict rent collection policy that included initiating eviction proceedings if rent was not collected by the fifth of the month.  Management is also strictly enforcing the property’s rules and regulations and is initiating eviction proceedings if they are broken. Also, the new manager started working very closely with the local police department to establish regular evening and afternoon police patrols of the property. Furthermore, to increase the occupancy, the management is continuously working with local Section 8 representatives and developing relationships with local churches and community centers. The mortgage payments, taxes, insurance, and accounts payables are current. The operating general partner guarantee is unlimited in time and amount.

 

Osage Housing Associates Limited Partnership (Spring Creek Apartments II) is a 50-unit family property located in Derby, Kansas, a suburb of Wichita. In 2007, despite an average occupancy of 92% the property operated below breakeven due to high utility and maintenance expenses. Despite an occupancy average of 99%, the property continued to operate below breakeven in the first quarter of 2008 due to high water and maintenance expenses. Water costs in Derby are three times the average water costs in neighboring towns. In addition, the age of the property necessitates extensive maintenance repairs. To offset high maintenance and water costs, a rent increase was implemented in

December 2007. The rent increase will increase annual gross potential rent by approximately $8,640. Despite an expired guarantee, the operating general partner has a longstanding history of funding operating deficits and continues to fund deficits as necessary. The mortgage payments, taxes, and insurance are current.  On December 31, 2006, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired with respect to Osage Housing Associates Limited Partnership.  The investment general partner is in the process of exploring various disposition opportunities consistent with the investment objectives of the investment partnership.

 

Greentree Apartments Limited (Sue-Ellen Apartments) is a 24-unit, family property located in Utica, OH.  Occupancy began dropping in 2006 due to poor management.  A new management company started in early 2006 and their focus on outreach to local businesses resulted in a 2007 average occupancy of 87%.  The first quarter of 2008 continues to show improvement, averaging 89%; however, the property is still operating below breakeven. The operating general partner passed away in the second quarter of 2007.  His widow is now the operating general partner.  Their grandson has assumed the day-to-day operations of the partnership but communication has been intermittent and calls have gone unanswered.  The investment general partner will continue to follow up with the operating general partner until all communication issues have been resolved.  The low income housing tax credit compliance period for this property expires in 2009.

 

In January 2008, the investment general partner transferred its interest in Wood Park Pointe to an entity affiliated with the operating general partner for its assumption of the outstanding mortgage balance and cash proceeds to the investment limited partner of $37,000.

Of the remaining proceeds, $15,000 was paid to BCAMLP for expenses related to the sale, which includes third party legal costs.  The remaining proceeds from the sale of $20,544 will be returned to cash reserves held by Series 15.  The monies held in cash reserves will be utilized to pay current operating expenses, accrued but unpaid asset management fees, and accrued but unpaid expenses of the investment partnership. After all outstanding obligations of the investment partnership are satisfied, any remaining monies will be distributed based on the number of BACs held by each investor at the time of distribution. Annual losses generated by the Operating Partnership, which were applied against the investment limited partnership’s investment in the Operating Partnership in accordance with the equity method of accounting, had previously reduced the investment limited partnership investment in the Operating Partnership to zero.

Buena Vista Apartments, Phase II (Buena Vista Apartments) is a 44-unit property located in Union, SC.  Industrial decline in the area has led to a dwindling population base from which to draw qualified residents.  The property continues to have trouble competing with properties that offer project-based rental assistance, but was still able to maintain an average occupancy of 95%.

Showboat Manor LDHA LP (Showboat Manor Apartments) is a 26-unit senior property located in Chesaning, MI. The property operated below breakeven in 2007 due to declining occupancy and poor on-site management. Average occupancy for 2007 was 77%.  The property has experienced high on-site management turnover since December 2006. The new site manager was hired in August 2007. She is very enthusiastic and has high expectations for the property, which has already positively impacted the residents. She has worked to increase property’s awareness, by inviting community members to resident events and posting flyers and advertising in the city library and in pharmacies. As a result, in the fourth quarter 2007, the property’s physical occupancy increased to 84%. Through the first quarter of 2008 occupancy has remained stable at 82%. Physical occupancy is expected to improve in the second quarter of 2008. In May 2008, the management is planning to internally transfer a new site manager; the new manager is expected to implement new marketing strategies to attract potential residents. This is in an effort to keep fresh energy on site and a new set of eyes. The tax and insurance escrow was not adequately funded in 2007, and 2007 real estate taxes are delinquent.  In an effort to address the delinquencies management created a two-year workout plan, which is currently in review by Rural Development. The primary goal of the workout plan is to pay down delinquent real estate taxes. The secondary goal is to properly fund the tax and insurance escrow account. As a result, the management company is proposing the replacement reserve funding requirement be waived in 2008, and allow those scheduled deposits to be allocated to the funding of the tax and insurance escrow. The tax and insurance escrow account is expected to be adequately funded over a period of 18 months, at which time the focus will convert to the funding of the replacement reserves. The workout plan also contains a request for rent increases, which will directly go towards the funding of the escrow accounts. The operating general partnership’s operating deficit guarantee has expired. The partnership’s mortgage payments are current to date. On December 31, 2007, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired.  The investment general partner is in the process of exploring various disposition opportunities consistent with the investment objectives of the investment partnership.

The Fitzgerald Building (Cass Partners, LP) is a 20-unit apartment building located in Plattsmouth, NE.  This property continues to operate below breakeven due to low occupancy. The first quarter 2008 physical occupancy averaged 5% and 2007 occupancy averaged 39%.  Due to the lack of cash flow, management has not been able to make ready the vacant apartments, which are in need of general maintenance and repairs, as well as update the kitchen appliances.  Also affecting the marketing of the property is its downtown location, lack of parking, and lack of amenities such as washer/dryer hook-ups.  The operating general partner has been able to reduce operating expenses over the last two years by self-managing the property.  The property insurance is current through December 2007; however, the 2005 through 2007 real estate taxes have not been paid.  The operating partnership is three years in arrears on the first mortgage from the City of Plattsmouth; however, the operating general partner has been in continual communication with the City on this matter and no default notice has yet been issued. As of March 2008, the payment due under the second mortgage was 15 days in arrears. Despite an expired operating deficit guaranty, the operating general partner has continued to fund operating deficits. However, the operating general partner has indicated that it will not be able to continue funding deficits. The City of Plattsmouth recently notified the operating general partner that, if the first mortgage is not brought current through an immediate payment of approximately $55,000, the City will begin foreclosure proceedings. In addition, the second mortgage matures in July 2008 and the lender has stated that it will not extend the term of the loan or refinance the debt. The investment general partner has analyzed the potential costs and benefits of maintaining the property through the 2008 compliance period and concluded that the cost of supporting the property’s operations through the end of the compliance period is too high. Avoiding tax credit recapture does not appear to justify the amount of the required investment.  As a result, the investment general partner believes a consensual transfer of the property to the lender prior to the end of the compliance period is likely. If this occurs, the Operating Partnership will experience recapture and interest in the estimated amount of $ 152,087.  This represents estimated recapture and interest of $27 per 1,000 BACs.

 

The operating general partner of Mariner’s Pointe Limited Partnership I and Mariner’s Pointe Limited Partnership II entered into an agreement to sell Mariner’s Pointe I & II.

The sales price for Mariner’s Pointe I & II was $4,587,705, which includes outstanding mortgage balances of approximately $3,998,707 and proceeds to the investment limited partnership of $264,924. Of the total investment limited partnership proceeds received, $110,860 represents a reimbursement of funds previously advanced to the Operating Partnership by the investment limited partnership, $52,500 represents payment of outstanding

reporting fees due to an affiliate of the investment limited partnership and approximately $14,501 is for third party legal costs. Proceeds from the sale of $87,063 will be returned to cash reserves held by Series 16.  The monies held in< font size="1" style="font-size:8.0pt;"> cash reserves will be utilized to pay current operating expenses, accrued but unpaid fund management fees, and accrued but unpaid expenses of the investment limited partnership. After all outstanding obligations of the investment limited partnership are satisfied, any remaining monies will be distributed based on the number of BACs held by each investor at the time of distribution. Losses on the sale of the property were recorded by Series 16 of $(108,072) in the quarter ended March 31, 2006. The loss recorded represents the proceeds received by the investment limited partner, net of their remaining investment balance. Accordingly, a loss on the sale of the Operating Partnership of the proce eds from the sale, net of the overhead and expense reimbursemen t, has been recorded in the amount of ($23,530) as of March 31, 2006. At the time of the sale, the operating general partner retained some funds in an account in the name of the Operating Partnership to cover costs that would be incurred in the process of dissolving the Operating Partnership entity.  These funds were not fully utilized and the investment limited partnership share of the remaining funds was paid in June 2006.  Accordingly, a gain was recorded for the total additional proceeds received in the amount of $2,521 as of June 30, 2006.

 

Summersville Estates, LP (Summersville Estates) is a 24-unit low-income housing property located in Summersville, Missouri. Despite an occupancy average of 82%, the property operated above breakeven in 2007. As of March 2008, the property was 79% occupied. The property operated below breakeven at the end of the first quarter of 2008 due to low occupancy. Low occupancy is the result of a lack of rental assistance for four units and in addition the property is located in an impoverished and isolated area. Without rental assistance, potential residents in the area cannot afford the property’s rents. Management is considering converting eight one bedroom units into four three bedrooms.  Such changes would allow the property to provide rent-assisted apartments for all of its residents.  The investment general partner is working with management to assess the benefit of potential unit conversions. The investment general partner is also working with management to implement various marketing strategies to improve occupancy. The taxes, mortgage and insurance payments are all current.

 

Croix Commons Limited Partnership (St. Croix Commons Apartments) is a 40-unit, family property located in Woodville, Wisconsin.  The property operated at a deficit in 2007 due to an average occupancy of 82%. The average physical occupancy through the first quarter 2008 remained at 82%. Operating expenses continue to stay below the state average. However, due to an inability to raise rental rates and the high vacancy rate, the property continued to operate below breakeven in 2008. The management agent continues to market the available units by working closely with the local housing authority and continues various marketing efforts to attract qualified residents.  The operating general partner continues to financially support the Operating Partnership. The operating general partner operating deficit guarantee is unlimited in time and amount.  The mortgage, taxes, insurance and payables are current.

 

Lofts By The Market Apartments (1413 Leavenworth Historic, L.P.) is a 60-unit historic development located on the fringe of the historic warehouse district in downtown Omaha, Nebraska.  The property operated with positive cash flow through 1999. In 2000, the property began operating below breakeven as the result of ineffective management. Operations were further negatively impacted when deferred maintenance items, which were corrected in 2002, resulted in the property operating with a substantial negative cash flow. The original

developer/general partner is still in place and continues to fund the operating deficits.  Over the past seven years, there have been four different management companies retained to manage the property.  This inconsistency contributed to the cash flow problems at the property.  In 2003, management of the property was transferred to Fieldcrest Management, which is an entity related to the operating general partner. The management company has implemented expense controls and has worked to decrease payables. In addition, the property refinanced the debt at the beginning of September 2005 and paid down some payables from the proceeds of the refinance. Despite an oversupply of apartments and condos in downtown Omaha, which are newer and offer more amenities, occupancy remains strong with the average for 2007 at 95% and the average for the first quarter of 2008 at 96%. Operations were above breakeven in 2007 and have remained above breakeven for the first quarter of 2008.

 

Sable Chase of McDonough L.P (Sable Chase) is a 225-unit property located in McDonough, GA.  In August 2006, a new site manager raised rents during substantial roof renovations. The rent increase and disruption from construction work, coupled with increased drug activity, caused residents to move out. After a drug enforcement sweep and subsequent evictions, the original rents were reinstated and a new leasing staff was hired. Although the average annual occupancy for 2007 was only 65%, it steadily increased during the year ending with an average of 72% in the fourth quarter.  According to management, newly developed affordable rental housing and single family homes have created increased supply without a corresponding increased need.  However, several businesses are rumored to be moving from Atlanta to McDonough which should increase the need for housing in the area.  The occupancy continues to show signs of improvement with an average of 75% for the first quarter of 2008.  Management forecasts a continued slow but steady increase in occupancy throughout 2008. The operating reserve fund is completely drawn down, and the operating general partner has begun funding deficits under an unlimited operating deficit guarantee.   The low income housing tax credit compliance period expires in 2008. All insurance, real estate taxes and mortgage payments are current.

 

Meadows of Southgate LDHA (Meadows of Southgate), is an 83-unit property located in Southgate, MI. Average occupancy for 2007 was 95%.

The newly hired site manager is actively marketing the community in the surrounding areas and more prospective residents are visiting the property.  The property is positioned in a convenient location and the management is optimistic that the physical occupancy will stabilize at 95%.  The mortgage, taxes, and insurance are current.

 

In December 2006, the investment general partner transferred its investment limited partner interest and its general partner interest in Riviera Apartments, Limited to an entity related to the remaining operating general partner for its assumption of the outstanding mortgage balance and cash proceeds of $25,000 to the general partner and $25,000 to the investment limited partner.

Of the proceeds received, $5,000 represented reporting fees due to an affiliate of the investment limited partnership and the balance represented proceeds from the sale.

Although significant occupancy increases occurred during the second half of 2007, the final average occupancy for the year decreased to 82%. The property continued to operate below breakeven in 2007.  The operating general partner expects operations to stabilize in 2008 and be closer to breakeven.  The new site manager is aggressively addressing the high accounts receivable and accounts payable balances. The mortgage, real estate taxes and insurance payments are current.

 

Green Acres Limited Partnership (Green Acres Estates) is a 4 8 unit (20 Low-Income Housing Tax Credit units) located in West Bath, Maine. The property operated below breakeven in 2007 and continued to operate below breakeven in the first quarter of 2008 due to vacancy loss.  Occupancy levels have been dimini shing for the past couple of years, resulting in decreased rent al income and increased accounts payable. Average occupancy in 2007 was 86% and has dropped to 75% in the first quarter of 2008. The closing of the Brunswick Naval Airbase and lack of funds to make vacant units rent ready has contributed greatly to the decrease in occupancy.  The investment general partner is currently working with the operating general partner to< font size="1" style="font-size:8.0pt;"> pay down the accounts payable and have the vacant units updated and rent ready in the second quarter of 2008.  Once the vacant units become rent ready, management

feels they will then be able to stabilize occupancy above 90%.  All taxes, insurance, and mortgage payments are current. The operating general partner’s obligation to fund operating deficits is unlimited in time and amount.

 

Park Place II, Ltd (Park Place Apartments) is a 34-unit property located in Leigh Acres, FL.  In 2007, the property operated with a small deficit due to an average occupancy of 74%. The occupancy at Park Place has historically averaged in the high 90% range.  In the first quarter of 2008 the property operated below breakeven and occupancy averaged 69%. Management has advised that the drop in occupancy is due to an increase in rental rates.  The increase in rental rates was required to cover the additional debt the property had to assume to fix the property after Hurricane Wilma. The property lost a number of long time tenants due to the rental rate increases. Management also stated another cause of the low occupancy is that local single family homes in the area are being rented for similar prices.  Management has increased their marketing efforts and is offering move-in specials to increase traffic. The investment general partner will monitor weekly traffic reports to ensure occupancy improves.  All taxes, insurance and mortgage payments are current and the final year of compliance is 2008.

 

Palmetto Properties Ltd. (Palmetto Villas) is a 49-unit property located in Palmetto, Florida. The property has historically suffered from low occupancy, high operating expenses and deferred maintenance issues. As a result of poor operations, the replacement reserve account was under-funded. The operating general partner was successful in refinancing the debt and obtaining successive rent increases in 2006 and 2007.  The property operated well through the first three quarters of 2007; however, a sharp decrease in occupancy resulted in deteriorating conditions in the fourth quarter and into the first quarter of 2008.  Occupancy dropped to an average of 71% in the fourth quarter due to evictions for non-payment of rent.  In January 2008 the site manager resigned, and there was no manager in place for four weeks to process applications.  In February 2008, there was a fire at the property which took two units off-line.  The units have not yet been repaired due to delays in Rural Development inspections, and processing the insurance claim.  The units have been an eyesore, and as a result occupancy has dropped to 52% in March 2008.  The management company has been very proactive in the last month, getting the necessary approvals to rebuild the units and work with the new site manager to lease units and improve occupancy.  The investment general partner will continue to monitor this situation closely. The low income housing tax credit compliance period expires in 2008.

 

Aspen Ridge Apartments (Aspen Ridge Apartments, L.P.) is a 42-unit development located in Omaha, Nebraska.  The property operated with positive cash flow through 1999.  In 2000 the property began operating below breakeven as the result of ineffective management. Operations were further negatively impacted when deferred maintenance was addressed in 2002. The original general partner is still in place and continues to fund the operating deficits.  Over the past seven years, there have been four different management companies retained to manage the property.  This inconsistency contributed to the cash flow problems at the property.  On June 1, 2003, management of the property was transferred to Fieldcrest Management, which is an entity related to the operating general partner. The management company has implemented expense controls and has worked to decrease payables. The property also refinanced the debt at the beginning of September 2005 and was able to pay some expenses from the proceeds of the refinance. Occupancy averaged 96% for 2007 and averaged 93% for the first quarter of 2008. The property operated above breakeven for the year 2007 and has remained above breakeven for the first quarter of 2008.  Significant legal fees were incurred in 2007 as the result of a resident lawsuit. The resident sued the Operating Partnership for discrimination;

however, the resident was one of several residents who received rent subsidies from the Omaha Housing Authority, referred to as OHA. When management terminated the OHA subsidy contract, the resident, along with the other residents receiving OHA rent subsidies, was offered the opportunity to remain as a resident at the non-subsidized rental rate or to vacate at the end of her lease. The Nebraska Equal Opportunity Commission has reviewed the case and has found no merit in her claim. The Operating Partnership was able to settle the case for $2,000 to cover the resident’s moving expenses and legal fees.

 

Shawnee Housing Associates Limited Partnership (Villa West South V) is a 52-unit development located in Topeka, KS. Despite an average occupancy of 98%, the property operated below breakeven in 2007. The property operated below breakeven due to high maintenance expenses. To reduce maintenance expenses, management solicits competitive bids from outside contractors and the maintenance staff works to purchase parts and supplies at competitive prices. The property was 96% occupied as of March 2008 and the property operated below breakeven in the first quarter of 2008 due to carpet replacement, snow removal and heating expenses. To offset high operating expenses, a rent increase was implemented in May 2008. Monthly rents increased by $20 per unit, which will increase gross potential revenue by approximately $1,040 per month. Despite an expired guarantee, the operating general partner has a longstanding history of funding operating deficits and continues to fund deficits as necessary. The mortgage, taxes and insurance payments are all current. On December 31, 2007, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired.  The investment general partner is in the process of exploring various disposition opportunities consistent with the investment objectives of the investment partnership.

 

In December 2006, the investment general partner of Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund II – Series 14, Series 17 and Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund IV – Series 20 transferred 33% of their interest in College Greene Rental Associates Limited Partnership to entities affiliated with the operating general partners for their assumption of one third of the outstanding mortgage balance.  The cash proceeds received by Series 14, Series 17, and Series 20 were $25,740, $7,919, and $65,341, respectively.

Annadale Housing Partners (King’s View Apartments) is a 222-apartment property in Fresno, CA.  The property operated above breakeven in 2006 as a result of being funded primarily with soft debt.  Operating expenses were slightly higher than state averages but not of serious concern.  The main issue at Annadale is low occupancy.  Occupancy continued to suffer in 2007, averaging 82% in the fourth quarter. King’s View Apartments is located in one of the most violent gang and high crime areas in the city of Fresno, and crime has increased substantially in the past two years.  Management spends $11,500 per month on average for private security.  The operating general partner estimates that in reality the site requires $30,000-$60,000 per month in private security to effectively secure the property.  Management has been working closely with the police department, which has diverted resources from other areas of the city to the King’s View neighborhood in the past few

months.  This has made a positive impact on the area but the operating general partner is doubtful that the impact will be long lasting.  As a result of the substantial, visible crime in the area, management has had extreme difficulty in finding and maintaining quality tenants and numerous tenants have moved out of the area.  Management continues to work with police, the City of Fresno, and the Housing Development Departments for additional support. The investment limited partner will continue to monitor occupancy and management efforts.

 

Cypress Point LP (Luarel Ridge Apartments) is a 78-unit property, located in Naples, FL. Due to local economic conditions, occupancy has steadily decreased from its average of near 100% to a 2007 average of 90%, and below breakeven operations for the year.  As new construction has halted in the Naples area, many construction employees and laborers have left the area for construction jobs in other areas of the country.  As construction employees made up a significant and regular portion of its tenant base, the property has been negatively affected and has had difficulty offsetting this loss with another target market.  In 2008, aggressive management and marketing strategies have allowed the property to improve its performance significantly.  As of May 2008, the property was 100% occupied.  Management was able to achieve this through re-directing their marketing approaches and increasing referral amounts.  The investment general partner will continue to monitor operations to ensure occupancy has stabilized.  The mortgage, real estate taxes and insurance payments are current.

losses that were passed through to the investors and also provided $3.71 and $0.00, respectively, in tax credits per BAC to the investors.  The Operating Partnerships were allocated tax credits for 10 years.  Based on each Operating Partnership’s lease-up, the total credits could be spread over as many as 13 years.  In cases where the actual number of years is more than 10, the credits delivered in the early and later years will be less than the maximum allowable per year

Natchitoches Elderly Apartments LP (Natchitoches Seniors Apartments) is a 32-unit property located in Natchitoches, Louisiana.  The property operated below breakeven in 2007 due to declining occupancy.  Occupancy reached 100% in February 2007; however, it steadily declined to 63% by December 2007, the lowest since construction completion in December 1994.  The decline in occupancy is directly attributed to a rental rate increase of about $50 per unit.  The new rates were effective July 2007 for new move-ins or upon lease renewal.  The resident base is comprised of elderly residents that cannot afford even the slightest increase which is what led to a 12% decline from the 2006 average.  Additionally, the increased vacancy resulted in higher operating expenses as costs associated with evictions and turnovers were incurred.  Additionally, since the property was completed in 1994, deferred maintenance items exist at the site.  During the first quarter of 2008, occupancy continued to decline, averaging only 58%.  The operating general partner is adamant that current rents remain inadequate to cover normal operating expenses and the needed site improvements.  However, management is having difficulty finding qualified elderly applicants that can afford these rents.  The investment general partner will continue to monitor operations and occupancy closely.  The operating general partner is funding all deficits as needed.  All real estate tax, mortgage, and insurance payments are current.

 

Westminster Meadow L.D.H.A. LP (Westminster Meadow Apartments) is a 64-unit (63 LIHTC, 1 Market) property located in Grand Rapids, MI. In 2007, average physical occupancy was 93% and the property was operating below breakeven. The operating deficit was due to high maintenance expenses associated with making apartments rent ready. However, maintenance expenses are anticipated to decrease by 40% which will allow the property to operate above breakeven. In the first quarter 2008, occupancy continues to be strong. As of March 2008, this property was 100% occupied and able to breakeven. The mortgage, taxes, insurance and payables are current. The operating general partner continues to fund all operating deficits.

 

Glen Place Apartments (Glen Place Apartments)is a 35-unit family development located in Duluth, MN. The property operated with an average occupancy of 95% in 2007. Average occupancy through March 2008 has been consistent with the prior year average at 94%. The operating expenses continue to stay below the state average.  Despite the strong occupancy level, the low rental rates in the area prevented the property from achieving breakeven operations. The management agent continues to market the available units by working closely

with the housing authority and continuing various marketing efforts to attract qualified residents.  The operating general partner continues to financially support the partnership. The operating general partner’s operating deficit guarantee is unlimited in time and amount. The mortgage, taxes, insurance and payables are current.

 

Arch Development, LP (Arch Apartments) is a 75-unit property located in Boston, Massachusetts, providing low-income housing to homeless, HIV positive and very low income tenants.  In 2007, occupancy averaged 79% and the property operated slightly below breakeven due to low occupancy caused by ineffective management. There is no hard debt associated with this partnership’s financing. The property continued to operate below breakeven in the first quarter of 2008; however, occupancy did improve. Occupancy was at 84% as of March 2008. According to the City of Boston, real estate tax payments have been made on all of the six parcels; however, only one parcel is current. The total amount outstanding, including interest and fees as of April 10, 2008 is $15,192. According to the Boston Water and Sewer Department, water and sewer payments are delinquent on all but one of the five accounts. The last payment on each account was made in February 2008. The total due by April 1, 2008 on all five accounts is $30,064. The investment general partner continues to monitor this partnership closely to ensure that taxes, water and sewer bills are paid. To improve occupancy, management continues to work with the Boston Housing Authority to improve applicant processing and move-in timeframes. The Boston Housing Authority’s certification and recertification process is very slow and results in large tenant and subsidy receivables from retroactive rent changes. The investment general partner will continue to monitor this partnership until operations have improved and stabilized. The operating general partner has an unlimited guarantee in time and amount.

 

Bear Creek of Naples (Bear Creek Apartments) is a 120-unit family development located in Naples, Florida.  The management company is a related entity to the operating general partner.  In 2007, occupancy averaged 83% and, as a result, the property operated slightly below breakeven.  The property continued to operate below breakeven in the first quarter of 2008 as occupancy remained low, averaging 83%.  The drop in occupancy is due to the addition of new tax credit properties in the market. To increase traffic and boost occupancy, the operating general partner has hired a third party professional leasing agent. The leasing agent has a thorough understanding of the local market and strong connections with the local housing authority. The leasing agent is working with management to develop a comprehensive marketing and outreach program. The investment general partner will continue to monitor operations and work with the management company to help improve occupancy. All tax, insurance, and mortgage payments are current.

The operating general partner’s operating deficit guarantee is unlimited as to time and amount.  The mortgage and insurance payments are current.

This property experienced a significant drop in occupancy in 2006, averaging 89% compared to 98% in 2005. This occupancy decline was due to

 

50



 

management’s difficulty in finding qualified residents.  In 2007, the operating general partner received preliminary approval to convert three units set aside for the homeless into Section 8 housing.  This has helped to improve occupancy levels, which averaged 96% during the third and fourth quarter of 2007.  Although the property incurred a significant cash deficit in 2007, the shortfall decreased by 36% in comparison to 2006. The operating general partner continues to fund operating deficits as needed.  The real estate taxes, mortgage, and insurance payments are all current.

 

Preston Wood Associates, LP is a 62-unit property located in Bentonville, Arkansas. Average occupancy was 75% for 2007 and the property continued to operate below breakeven. In 2006 a $270,000 rehabilition was completed in an effort to make the units more marketable. The improvements were funded entirely by the operating general partner. The operating general partner believes that Bentonville is a growing community and making the improvements to the property will increase occupancy and improve operations; however, performance continued to struggle after the completion of the project. January and February 2008 occupancy was 45% and 52%, respectively. At the end of 2007, the general partner dismissed the management company and replaced the on-site manager. The property is currently being owner managed. According to the operating general partner, the focus in early 2008 has been on improving collections, and they have been successful in reducing the tenant receivables. In 2007, a portion of the parking lot was sold to the Arkansas State Highway Commission to be used for highway construction purposes.  A new ramp is being built by the property and the road is being expanded to accommodate the increase in traffic.  The operating general partner anticipates this should improve occupancy significantly as the property will have an advantagous location next to the highway for commuters and will also increase site visibility.  The operating general partner anticipates occupancy should begin to improve and reach near 90% by August 2008. The investment general partner will continue to monitor occupancy and operations to ensure that performance picks up. In addition, a site visit is scheduled for the first half of 2008.  The operating general partner continues to fund all operating deficits. The mortgage, accounts payable, property taxes, and insurance are all current.

 

Humboldt I, LP (Briarwood Apartments)is a 20-unit property located in Humboldt, IA.  The property operated below breakeven in 2005 and 2006 due to low occupancy, 82% in 2005 and 89% in 2006, and high maintenance expenses related to resident turnover. In order to fund the operating deficits, reserves were not funded to the required levels.  Historical and ongoing challenges cited by management include competition for one-bedroom units from a neighboring senior development, past problem tenants that required eviction, difficulty attracting quality tenants, and the poor state of the local economy.  Forty percent of the apartments at the property are one bedroom units and, historically, these have been the most difficult to fill.  Management targets seniors for one-bedroom units through outreach with various housing programs.  Management relies heavily on word of mouth and the local housing authority for rental traffic but also runs an advertisement for the property in a free weekly advertiser that is distributed throughout town.  In addition, management obtained approval to offer a rental incentive of a gas card or grocery card for new tenants starting in the first quarter of 2007.  These efforts, as well as an increased focus on quick application turnaround, have increased traffic and occupancy at the property.  Occupancy was 90% in March 2008 and averaged 88% for the first quarter of 2008.  The property operated slightly below breakeven in 2007.  Management anticipates the partnership to operate above breakeven and the replacement reserve to be fully funded by year end 2008. In March 2007, the investment limited partner negotiated the transfer of the operating general partner interest to National Affordable Housing Foundation, a local company with a good working

relationship with Rural Development. As part of this transaction, the Foundation originally agreed to obtain a conventional loan to replace two roofs at the property that have had problems with loose shingles, reface kitchen and bathroom cabinets in ten units, and remove and replace parking lot concrete.  As of the first quarter 2008, the Foundation obtained Rural Development rental rate increase approval that will allow them to make larger replacement reserve deposits going forward instead of taking on additional debt. These larger deposits will be used to fund Rural Development approved capital needs.  The capital needs assessment includes replacement of two roofs, concrete work and cabinetry repairs, all to be completed by year end 2008.  The investment limited partner will work closely with the operating general partner to monitor the capital improvements, funding of the replacement reserve, and ensure operational stabilization.

 

Marengo Park Apartments LP (Marengo Park Apartments) is a 24 - -unit property located in Marengo Park, IA.  The property operated above breakeven in 2005. A decline in occupancy that began in the fourth quarter of 2005 and continued into 2006 to a low of 58% resulted in an operating deficit at year end 2006.  As a result of low occupancy, the property was unable to make the September 2006 tax payment.  The large decrease in occupancy was the result of a lack of oversight by management.  Management had been very slow to evict problem tenants at the property.  As a result, the police were called to the site frequently and over time Marengo Park developed a poor reputation in the community.  In addition, an August 2006 inspection by Rural Development showed numerous deficiencies in the nine units that were vacant at the time.  In the first quarter of 2007, the investment general partner negotiated the transfer of the operating general partner interest to National Affordable Housing Foundation, a local company with a good working relationship with Rural Development.  The transfer occurred< /font> on March 30, 2007.  Upon transfer, the Foundation paid the< /font> outstanding September 2006 tax bill as well as the March 2007 tax bill.  After several years of unsuccessful site manageme nt, a new site manager was hired in June 2007 and she has had an immediate impact on the property.  The site manager is splitting her time between Marengo Park and the 84-unit senior property across the street.  The site manager frequently walks the site and is always available to meet with prospective residents.  National Management negotiated an agreement with t he owners of the senior property, and Marengo Housing transformed a portion of common space at that property into an office to be used for both properties.  This was completed in October 2007.  With the help of an on-site location and normal office hours, management has been able to offer assistance on applications, provide quick application turnaround, offer property tours, and also track undesirable tenants and make prompt evictions when necessary. Management’s focus on quick application turnaround and follow-up resulted in an increase in occupancy to 88% as of the end of the fourth quarter 2007; however, due to the eviction of four non-paying residents in the first quarter of 2008, occupancy averaged 76% for the quarter.  With improved operations, the property was able to fund the September 2007 and March 2008 tax payments through operations.  Current marketing efforts include advertising in a local newspaper, distributing flyers, contacting local employers, and offering a gas card or grocery card to new tenants.  The investment general partner will work closely with the new operating general partner to monitor the property until occupancy improves and operations stabilize back above breakeven.

 

Rio Grande Apartments, LTD (Rio Grande Apartments) is a 100-unit property located in Eagle Pass, TX.  The property has experienced a drop in occupancy since September 2006.  A hailstorm hit the property causing significant roof damage, resulting in leaks in approximately twenty of the units, making them uninhabitable.  The repair work progressed much slower than was originally anticipated and was completed in early May 2007.  Since units were offline

The investment general partner will continue to monitor operations to ensure stabilization.  All taxes, insurance and mortgage payments are current.

Since occupancy is strong, the investment general partner suggested that management implement a rent increase to offset high operating expenses. The investment general partner will continue to work with the operating general partner to monitor expense levels.  Despite an expired guarantee, the operating general partner has a longstanding history of funding operating deficits and continues to fund deficits as necessary. All tax, mortgage, and insurance payments are current. On December 31, 2009, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period will expire.

 

Hebbronville Apartments, Ltd. (Hebbronville Senior) is a 20-unit property located in Hebbronville, Texas.  In 2007, the property operated with a cash flow deficit due to insufficient rental rates, which could not support normal operating expenses.  The last rent increase approved by Rural Development was implemented in the first quarter of 2006, but was less than half of the identified need.  In 2007, the operating general partner continued to work with Rural Development in an effort to gain approval for another increase, but no increase was granted.  During 2007, occupancy remained strong averaging 97%, but the rental rates remained inadequate to generate enough revenue to support normal operating expenses.  Rural Development approved a rent increase of approximately $30 per unit effective January 1, 2008 for new move-ins or upon lease renewal.  This increase is expected to significantly improve operations in 2008.  During the first quarter 2008, occupancy averages 100% and operations appear to be improving as more revenue is generated to support the operating expenses.  The operating general partner continues to fund all deficits as needed.  The investment general partner will continue to monitor the partnership’s operations closely.  All real estate tax, mortgage, and insurance payments are current.  On December 31, 2008, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period will expire.

 

Martindale Apartments, Ltd. (Martindale Apartments) is a 24-unit property located in Martindale, Texas.  Rental rate increases were implemented in 2006 and 2007, yet the rents were still inadequate to cover normal operating expenses.  Rural Development approved another increase of approximately $15 per unit effective January 1, 2008 for new move-ins or upon lease renewal.  Although the increased rents will generate more revenue, it is much less than the requested increase of $60 per unit.  During 2007, occupancy fluctuated from 83% to 96% and averaging 91% for the year.  The vacancies were due to the raised rents, as well as evictions.  Unit and curb appeal improvements were ongoing throughout 2007.  During the last quarter 2007, occupancy began to rebound as each vacant unit was evaluated and updated as necessary. The manager is adamant that the improvements are necessary to obtain and maintain a better resident base.  During the first quarter of 2008, occupancy has increased to average 92%.  The operating general partner is hopeful that the approved rent increase and site improvements will improve operations in 2008. The operating general partner is funding all deficits as needed.  The investment general partner will continue to monitor the property’s improvements, occupancy and operations.  All tax, mortgage, and insurance payments are current.  On December 31, 2008, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period will expire.

Carrollton Villa, L.P. (Meadow Ridge Apartments) located in Carrollton, Missouri, has historically operated below breakeven due to low rent levels.  Occupancy at the property averaged 88% in 2006, and 98% in 2007.  The average occupancy for the first quarter of 2008 is 99%.  In an effort to improve occupancy, the property offered one-month free rent for new residents as well as one-month free rent for resident referrals.  Management expanded their outreach and advertising to attract potential residents from bordering communities.  As a result, occupancy improved significantly.  Despite strong occupancy, the property continues to operate below breakeven through the first quarter of 2008 due to the low rent levels that are not sufficient to cover operating expenses.  The property received a grant of $40,000 from the State to enable the property to reduce the rents for the residents but not lose any income.  Upon transfer of the operating general partner interests in 2004, the mortgage became a cash flow only mortgage, which has helped to significantly reduce its operating deficits.  The second mortgage is due in November 2008 and debt service payments for the first mortgage will begin December 1, 2008. The operating general partner has contacted the lender about extending the payment dates until after the end of the tax credit compliance in 2009, and is awaiting a response.  The taxes, mortgage and insurance are all current.

 

Forest Associates Limited (Sharon Apartments) is a 24-unit apartment complex for families located in Forest, OH. The property has suffered low occupancy due to poor management.  A new management company started in early 2006.  The property improved in 2007 with an average occupancy of 87%.  The management company is working to make all vacant units market ready and is networking with local businesses to attract income qualified applicants.  The first quarter of 2008 showed signs of improvement increasing to 89% from 83% in the fourth quarter of 2007.  Further improvements are still needed as the property is operating below breakeven. The operating general partner passed away in the second quarter of 2007 and his widow is now the operating general partner.  Their grandson is assuming the day-to-day operations of the partnership but communication has been intermittent and calls have gone unanswered.  The investment general partner will continue to follow up with the operating general partner until all communication issues are resolved.  The low income housing tax credit compliance period expires in 2009.

 

Jeremy Associates, LP (Coopers Crossing Apartments) is a 93-unit family development located in Las Colinas, Texas.  Average occupancy for 2007 was 90%, down 6% from the 2006 average occupancy.  Through the first quarter of 2008, average occupancy is 93%, and has steadily increased each month to reach 95% as of March 2008.  The reason for the decline in performance in 2007 was due to having to relocate tenants out of an entire building for structural repairs.  In 2003 an engineer’s report identified foundation and stress cracks in a number of buildings on site.  The total cost of the project was estimated at $320,000; however, there were additional repairs required due to plumbing breaks as the foundations were being repaired, resulting in a total project cost of $360,000. The construction repairs were funded by a capital contribution from the operating general partner, and the project was completed in November of 2007 and all units have been brought back on line.  In efforts to market the units, management reduced the move-in deposit and has been networking with local employers.  The investment general partner inspected the project after completion of the repairs and found that all foundation repairs have been addressed and the overall property is in very good physical condition, as all structural repairs have been addressed and operations are improving to pre-project levels.  The mortgage, trade payables, property taxes and insurance are current.

 

Munford Village, Ltd. (Munford Village) is a 24-unit family project in Munford, AL.   Occupancy increased to 97% in 2007 but the property still

 

55



 

operated below breakeven.  Occupancy has averaged 92% through the first quarter of 2008. Leasing concessions have been eliminated completely at the moment.  Management has implemented more stringent credit and criminal background checks on prospective tenants in an effort to minimize delinquency. Low rent levels and turnover costs are the primary reasons for the 2007 cash deficit. The property’s mortgage is current and the replacement reserve is adequately funded.  The tax and insurance escrow accounts remain under-funded and will consequently rely on reserves, which are ample.  The operating deficit is being funded with a cash overdraft, which is currently $39,000.  The bank allows an overdraft in an unlimited amount and for an unlimited period without interest charges.  The operating deficit guarantee is unlimited in time and amount. The property’s low income housing tax credit compliance period expires in 2009.

 

Sherwood Knoll L.P. (Sherwood Knoll Apartments) is a 24-unit project located in Rainsville, Alabama.  The 2007 occupancy average was 99% and operating expenses decreased from 2006; however, the property continued to operate below breakeven. Through the first quarter of 2008, occupancy is 100%. The current rent levels do not allow enough revenue to cover operating expenses.  The operating deficit is being funded with a cash overdraft that is currently $10,120.  The replacement reserve is adequately funded.  The investment general partner will continue to work with the operating general partner to find ways to improve operations and position the property to operate back above breakeven status.  The operating deficit guarantee is unlimited in time and amount. The low income housing tax credit compliance period for the property ends in 2009.

 

Tanglewood Park (Willowood Park, LP) is a 130-unit family development located in Lawrenceville, Georgia, approximately twenty-six miles from downtown Atlanta.  Over the past few years, occupancy has suffered from the over-development of the Georgia market, but began to increase in the third and fourth quarters of 2007.  However, the low occupancy in the beginning of the year and increased security and administrative expenses resulted in below breakeven operations.  Through the first quarter of 2008, occupancy averaged 97% and operations resulted in a small deficit due to high operating expenses. To date, the operating general partner has advanced $238,600 in operating deficit funding.  The mortgage, taxes and insurance payments are current.  The low income housing tax credit compliance period expires in 2008.

 

In February 2008, the investment general partner of Community Dynamics – Plano, Ltd. approved an agreement to sell the property and the transaction is anticipated to close in July 2008.   The anticipated sales price for the property is $11,500,000, which includes the outstanding mortgage balance of approximately $6,381,560 and cash proceeds to the investment limited partner of $2,078,576.  Of the total proceeds anticipated to be received, $120,000 represents reporting fees due to an affiliate of the investment partnership and the balance represents proceeds from the sale.  Of the remaining proceeds, it is anticipated that $15,000 will be paid to BCAMLP for expenses related to the sale, which includes third party legal costs.  The remaining proceeds from the sale of $1,943,576 is anticipated to be returned to cash reserves held by Series 19.  The monies held in cash reserves will be utilized to pay current operating expenses, accrued but unpaid asset management fees, and accrued but unpaid expenses of the investment partnership. After all outstanding obligations of the investment partnership are satisfied, any remaining monies will be distributed based on the number of BACs held by each investor at the time of distribution.

Principal Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which requires the Fund to make various estimates and assumptions.  A summary of significant accounting policies is provided in Note A to the financial statements.  The following section is a summary of some aspects of those accounting policies that may require subjective or complex judgments and are most important to the portrayal of the Fund’s financial condition and results of operations.  The Fund believes that there is a low probability that the use of different estimates or assumptions in making these judgments would result in materially different amounts being reported in the financial statements.

 

The Fund is required to assess potential impairments to its long-lived assets, which is primarily investments in limited partnerships.  The Fund accounts for its investment in limited partnerships in accordance with the equity method of accounting since the Fund does not control the operations of the Operating Partnership.

 

If the book value of the Fund’s investment in an Operating Partnership exceeds the estimated value derived by management, which generally consists of the remaining future Low-Income Housing Credits allocable to the Fund and the estimated residual value to the Fund, the Fund reduces its investment in the Operating Partnership and includes the reduction in equity in loss of investment of limited partnerships.

 

As of March 31, 2004, the Fund adopted FASB Interpretation No. 46 - Revised (“FIN46R”), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.”  FIN 46R provides guidance on when a company should include the assets, liabilities, and activities of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in its financial statements and when it should disclose information about its relationship with a VIE. A VIE is a legal structure used to conduct activities or hold assets, which must be consolidated by a company if it is the primary beneficiary because it absorbs the majority of the entity’s expected losses, the majority of the expected returns, or both.

 

Based on the guidance of FIN 46R, the Operating Partnerships in which the Fund invests meet the definition of a VIE.  However, management does not consolidate the Fund’s interests in these VIEs under FIN 46R, as it is not considered to be the primary beneficiary.  The Fund currently records the amount of its investment in these partnerships as an asset on its balance sheet, recognizes its share of partnership income or losses in the statement of operations, and discloses how it accounts for material types of these investments in its financial statements.

 

The Fund’s balance in investment in Operating Partnerships, plus the risk of recapture of tax credits previously recognized on these investments, represents its maximum exposure to loss.  The Fund’s exposure to loss on these partnerships is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the underlying properties as well as the strength of the local general partners and their guarantee against credit recapture.

Recent Accounting Changes

 

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” (SFAS 157), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and shall be applied prospectively except for very limited transactions, which for the Fund is April 1, 2008.  In December 2007, the FASB delayed the implementation of SFAS 157 as it pertains to non-financial assets and liabilities for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, which for the Fund is April 1, 2009. The Fund is currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of SFAS 157 on its financial statements.

 

In February 2007 the FASB issued SFAS 159 “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.”  SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.  The fair value election is designed 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 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  The Fund does not expect to elect the fair value option.

 

On December 4, 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 141R, “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141 R”).  This statement changes the accounting for acquisitions specifically eliminating the step acquisition model, changing the recognition of contingent consideration from being recognized when it is probable to being recognized at the time of acquisition, and disallowing the capitalization of transaction costs and delays when restructurings related to acquisitions can be recognized.  The standard is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008.  The Fund is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of SFAS 141 R on its financial statements.  However, the Fund does not expect SFAS 141R to have a material impact on the Fund’s statement of operations or financial position.

 

On December 4, 2007, the FASB issued statement No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”).  SFAS 160 replaces the concept of minority interest with noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries.  Noncontrolling interests will now be reported as a component of equity in the consolidated statement of financial position.  Earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests will continue to be reported as a part of consolidated earnings; however, SFAS 160 requires that income attributable to both controlling and noncontrolling interests be presented separately on the face of the consolidated income statement.  In addition, SFAS 160 provides that when losses attributable to noncontrolling interests exceed the noncontrolling interest’s basis, losses continue to be attributed to the noncontrolling interest as opposed to being absorbed by the consolidating entity.  SFAS 160 requires retroactive adoption of the presentation and disclosure requirements for existing minority interests.  All other requirements of SFAS 160 shall be applied prospectively. SFAS 160 is effective for the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. However, the Fund does not expect SFAS 160 to have a material impact on the Fund’s financial statements.

Item 9a.                  Controls & Procedures

 

(a)           Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Fund’s general partner, under the supervision and with the participation of the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer of C&M Management, Inc., carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Fund’s “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15. Based on that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Fund’s disclosure controls and procedures were adequate and effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Fund required to be included in the Fund’s periodic SEC filings.

 

(b)           Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting Management of the Fund is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). The Fund’s internal control system over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Fund’s management regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

Due to inherent limitations, an internal control system over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

 

The Fund’s general partner, under the supervision and with the participation of the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer of Boston Capital Associates III LP, assessed the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal controls and procedures over financial reporting as of March 31, 2008. In making this assessment, the Fund’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 this assessment, management believes that, as of March 31, 2008, the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting was effective.

 

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

 

(c)           Changes in Internal Controls There were no changes in the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2008 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Partners

Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund III, L.P.

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund III L.P. - Series 15 through Series 19, in total and for each series, as of March 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related statements of operations, changes in partners’ capital and cash flows for the total partnership and for each of the series for each of the years in the two-year period ended March 31, 2008.  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 did not audit the financial statements of certain operating limited partnerships which investments represent $232,003 and $728,741 of the total partnership assets as of March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and $(808,242) and $(593,912), of the total partnership loss for the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively; of the assets for Series 15 as of March 31, 2008 and 2007, $201,333 and $289,968, respectively, and of the loss for Series 15 for the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, $(88,635) and $(117,013), respectively; of the assets for Series 16 as of March 31, 2008 and 2007, $0 and $0, respectively, and of the loss for Series 16 for the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, $(551,518) and $0, respectively; of the assets for Series 17 as of March 31, 2008 and 2007, $0 and $240,014 , respectively, and of the loss for Series 17 for the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, $0 and $(202,389), respectively; of the assets for Series 18 as of March 31, 2008 and 2007, $0 and $22,873 , respectively, and of the loss for Series 18 for the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, $(22,873) and $(120,600), respectively; and of the assets for Series 19 as of March 31, 2008 and 2007, $30,670 and $175,886, respectively, and of the loss for Series 19 for the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, $(145,216) and $(153,510), respectively.  Those statements were audited by other auditors, whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to those operating limited partnerships, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.

 

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.  The partnership has determined that it is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit 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 includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits and the reports of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

F-3



 

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund III L.P. - Series 15 through Series 19, in total and for each series, as of March 31, 2008 and 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the total partnership and for each of the series for each of the years in the two-year period ended March 31, 2008, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

March 31, 2008 and 2007

 

NOTE A - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund III L.P. (the “partnership” or “fund”) was formed under the laws of the State of Delaware on September 19, 1991, for the purpose of acquiring, holding, and disposing of limited partnership interests in operating limited partnerships which were organized to acquire, develop, rehabilitate, operate and own newly constructed, existing or rehabilitated apartment complexes which qualified for the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit established by the Tax Reform Act of 1986.  Accordingly, the apartment complexes are restricted as to rent charges and operating methods.  Certain of the apartment complexes also qualified for the Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit for their rehabilitation of a certified historic structure and are subject to the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code relating to the Rehabilitation Investment Credit.  The general partner of the fund is Boston Capital Associates III L.P. and the limited partner is BCTC III Assignor Corp. (the “assignor limited partner”).

 

Pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, the fund filed a Form S-11 Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, effective January 24, 1992, which covered the offering (the “Public Offering”) of the fund’s beneficial assignee certificates (“BACs”) representing assignments of units of the beneficial interest of the limited partnership interest of the assignor limited partner.   The fund originally registered 20,000,000 BACs at $10 per BAC for sale to the public in one or more series.  An additional 2,000,000 BACs at $10 per BAC were registered for sale to the public in one or more series on September 4, 1994.  BACs sold in bulk were offered to investors at a reduced cost per BAC.

 

The BACs issued and outstanding in each series at March 31, 2008 and 2007 are as follows:

 

Series 15

 

3,870,500

 

Series 16

Total

 

21,996,102

 

 

In accordance with the limited partnership agreements, profits, losses, and cash flow (subject to certain priority allocations and distributions) and tax credits are allocated 99% to the assignees and 1% to the general partner.

NOTE A - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Investments in Operating Limited Partnerships

 

The fund accounts for its investments in operating limited partnerships using the equity method, whereby the fund adjusts its investment cost for its share of each operating limited partnership’s results of operations and for any distributions received or accrued.  However, the fund recognizes the individual operating limited partnership’s losses only to the extent that the fund’s share of losses of the operating limited partnerships does not exceed the carrying amount of its investment and its advances to operating limited partnerships.  Unrecognized losses are suspended and offset against future individual operating limited partnership income.

 

Under Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 98-13, after the investment account is reduced to zero, receivables due from the operating limited partnerships are decreased by the fund’s share of losses and, accordingly, a valuation allowance is recorded against the receivables.  Accordingly, the partnership recorded a valuation allowance as follows:

A loss in value of an investment in an operating limited partnership other than a temporary decline is recorded as an impairment loss.  Impairment is measured by comparing the investment carrying amount to the sum of the total amount of the remaining tax credits allocated to the fund and the estimated residual value of the investment.  In addition, deferred acquisition costs related to each investment are evaluated for impairment when an impairment loss has reduced an investment balance to zero.  Accordingly, the partnership recorded an impairment loss of $293,550 and $1,365,076 during the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

March 31, 2008 and 2007

 

NOTE A - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Investments in Operating Limited Partnerships (Continued)

 

Capital contributions to operating limited partnerships are adjusted by tax credit adjusters.  Tax credit adjusters are defined as adjustments to operating limited partnership capital contributions due to reductions in actual tax credits from those originally projected.  The fund records tax credit adjusters as a reduction in investment in operating limited partnerships and capital contributions payable.

 

The operating limited partnerships maintain their financial statements based on a calendar year and the fund utilizes a March 31 year-end.  The fund records income and losses from the operating limited partnerships on a calendar year basis which is not materially different from income and losses generated if the operating limited partnerships utilized a March 31 year-end.

 

The fund records capital contributions payable to the operating limited partnerships once there is a binding obligation to fund a specified amount.  The operating limited partnerships record capital contributions from the fund when received.

 

The fund records certain acquisition costs as an increase in its investment in operating limited partnerships.  Certain operating limited partnerships have not recorded the acquisition costs as a capital contribution from the fund.  These differences are shown as reconciling items in note C.

 

As of March 31, 2004, the partnership adopted FASB Interpretation No. 46 - - Revised (“FIN 46R”), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.”  FIN 46R provides guidance on when a company should include the assets, liabilities, and activities of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in its financial statements and when it should disclose information about its relationship with a VIE. A VIE is a legal structure used to conduct activities or hold assets, which must be consolidated by a company if it is the primary beneficiary because it absorbs the majority of the entity’s expected losses, the majority of the expected residual returns, or both.

NOTE A - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Investments in Operating Limited Partnerships (Continued)

 

Based on the guidance of FIN 46R, the operating limited partnerships in which the partnership invests in meet the definition of a VIE.  However, management does not consolidate the partnership’s interests in these VIEs under FIN 46R, as it is not considered to be the primary beneficiary.  The partnership currently records the amount of its investment in these partnerships as an asset in the balance sheets, recognizes its share of partnership income or losses in the statements of operations, and discloses how it accounts for material types of these investments in the financial statements.

 

The partnership’s balance in investment in operating limited partnerships, plus the risk of recapture of tax credits previously recognized on these investments, represents its maximum exposure to loss.  The partnership’s exposure to loss on these partnerships is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the underlying properties as well as the strength of the local general partners and their guarantee against credit recapture.

 

Deferred Acquisition Costs

 

Acquisition costs were deferred until March 31, 1995.  As of April 1, 1995, the fund reallocated certain acquisition costs, common to all Series, based on a percentage of equity raised to each Series.  Acquisition costs are being amortized on the straight-line method starting April 1, 1995, over 27.5 years (330 months).

 

Accumulated amortization as of March 31, 2008 and 2007 is as follows:

Deferred Acquisition Costs (Continued)

 

The amortization of the deferred acquisition costs for each of the ensuing 5 years through March 31, 2013 is estimated to be $52,385 per year.

 

Income Taxes

 

No provision or benefit for income taxes has been included in these financial statements since taxable income or loss passes through to, and is reportable by, the partners and assignees individually.

 

Cash Equivalents

 

Cash equivalents include repurchase agreements and money market accounts having original maturities at date of acquisition of three months or less.  The carrying value approximates fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

Fiscal Year

 

For financial reporting purposes, the fund uses a March 31 year-end, whereas for income tax reporting purposes, the fund uses a calendar year.  The operating limited partnerships use a calendar year for both financial and income tax reporting.

 

Net Income (Loss) per Beneficial Assignee Certificate

 

Net income (loss) per beneficial assignee partnership unit is calculated based upon the number of units outstanding during the year.  The number of units in each series at March 31, 2008 and 2007 are as follows:

 

Series 15

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

During the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, the fund entered into several transactions with various affiliates of the general partner, including Boston Capital Partners, Inc., Boston Capital Services, Inc., Boston Capital Holdings Limited Partnership and Boston Capital Asset Management Limited Partnership, as follows:

 

Boston Capital Asset Management Limited Partnership is entitled to an annual fund management fee based on .5% of the aggregate cost of all apartment complexes acquired by the operating limited partnerships, less the amount of certain partnership management and reporting fees paid or payable by the operating limited partnerships.  The aggregate cost is comprised of the capital contributions made by each series to the operating limited partnerships and 99% of the permanent financing at the operating limited partnership level.  The fee is payable without interest as sufficient funds became available from sales or refinancing proceeds from operating limited partnerships.

NOTE H - CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

 

The Fund maintains its cash and cash equivalent balances in several accounts in various financial institutions. The balances are generally insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) up to specified limits by each institution. At times, the balances may exceed these insurance limits; however, the Fund has not experienced any losses with respect to it balances in excess of FDIC or SIPC insurance. Management believes that no significant concentration of credit risk with respect to these cash and cash equivalent balances exists as of March 31, 2008.

Independent Auditors’ Report

 

To the Partners of

   SABLE CHASE OF MCDONOUGH, L.P.

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of SABLE CHASE OF MCDONOUGH, L.P. as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related statements of operations, changes in partners’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the General Partner and management of the Partnership.  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 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.  The partnership has determined that it is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit 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 includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as 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 SABLE CHASE OF MCDONOUGH, L.P., as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental information is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements.  This supplemental information is the responsibility of the Partnership’s management.  Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

SABLE CHASE OF MCDONOUGH, L.P.

 

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2007 AND 2006

 

A.    ORGANIZATION
 

The Partnership was formed as a Limited Partnership under the laws of the State of Georgia, on May 1, 1992, for the purpose of acquiring land, owning, constructing and operating a 225 unit multi-family rental housing project.

 

B.    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Accounting Method

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.

 

Rental Income

 

Rental income is recognized as rentals become due.  Rental payments received in advance are deferred until earned.  All leases between the Partnership and the tenants of the property are operating leases.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Buildings, improvements and equipment are being depreciated on various methods over 5 to 27.5 years for both financial statement and income tax accounting purposes. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.  The Partnership reviews its investment in real estate for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such property may not be recoverable.  There were no impairment losses recognized in 2007 or 2006.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Partnership considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

C.    INCOME TAXES
 

No income tax provision has been included in the financial statements because income or loss of the Partnership is required to be reported by the respective partners on their income tax returns.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2007 AND 2006

 

D.    MORTGAGES PAYABLE
 

The first mortgage payable to Mass Mutual Life Insurance Company is nonrecourse and is collateralized by a first mortgage on the rental property.  This mortgage bears interest at 8.45% per annum.  The proceeds were used to refinance the First Union National Bank of Florida loan.

 

$33,289 payable monthly until the principal and interest are fully paid except that the final installment shall be due and payable on December 1, 2020.

 

The second mortgage payable to Georgia Housing and Finance Authority, under the HOME Program, provided non-interest bearing construction financing of $1,000,000.  The construction loan was converted to permanent financing in 1995.  The note is collateralized by a deed to secure debt on the partnership rental property, subordinate to Mass Mutual Life Insurance Company’s lien on the property.

 

$2,778 is payable monthly until 2035, when unpaid principal becomes due.

 

Maturities of the notes payable are as follows for the years ended December 31:

The liability of the Partnership is limited to the underlying value of the real estate collateral.

 

E.     TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
 

An affiliate performs rental, administrative and accounting services for SABLE CHASE OF MCDONOUGH, L.P. in its capacity as managing agent of the Project for which the affiliate received $55,007 in 2007 and $72,693 in 2006.

 

The Partnership is committed to pay a non-cumulative annual fee of $28,125  to its General Partner for management services and a non-cumulative annual fee of $10,665  to an affiliate of the Limited Partner for reporting services if and when sufficient cash flow, as defined in the partnership agreement is available.  The Partnership paid management and reporting fees of $0 to the General Partner in the year 2007 and $0 in the year 2006.  The Partnership paid reporting fees of $0 for the year 2007 and $10,665 for 2006 to an affiliate of the Limited Partner.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2007 AND 2006

 

E.     TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES (CONTINUED)

F.     CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

G.    VULNERABILITY DUE TO CERTAIN CONCENTRATIONS
 

The Partnership’s operations are concentrated in the multi-family real estate market.  In addition, the Partnership operates in a heavily regulated environment.  The operations of the Partnership are subject to the administrative directives, rules and regulations of federal, state and local regulatory agencies.  Such administrative directives, rules and regulations are subject to change by acts of or administrative changes mandated by these regulatory agencies.  Such changes occur with little notice or inadequate funding to pay for the related cost, including the additional administrative burden, to comply with a change.

 

H.    GAIN FROM INVOLUNTARY CONVERSION
 

The Project sustained tornado damage in 2004 and carries commercial insurance to cover the damages. Funds were being held in escrow by the mortgage company, Mass Mutual Life Insurance Company, and were disbursed in 2006.  During 2006, the Project received proceeds from the insurance company of $0, and spent $286,438, of which $240,253 was capitalized for roof replacement.  The net amount of ($46,185) for 2006 is reported in the Statement of Operations under the caption Gain (loss) from involuntary conversion. As of December 31, 2006, the Project has completed all the repairs.
