PART I
Item 1. Business
The Registrant, Inland Land Appreciation Fund, L.P. (the "Partnership"), was
formed in October 1987, pursuant to the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited
Partnership Act, to invest in undeveloped land on an all-cash basis and realize
appreciation of such land upon resale. On October 12, 1988, the Partnership
commenced an Offering of 10,000 (subject to increase to 30,000) Limited
Partnership Units ("Units") pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-11
under the Securities Act of 1933. The Offering terminated on October 6, 1989,
with total sales of 30,000 Units, at $1,000 per Unit, resulting in gross
offering proceeds of $30,000,000, which does not include the General Partner or
the Initial Limited Partner. All of the holders of these Units have been
admitted to the Partnership. Inland Real Estate Investment Corporation is the
General Partner. The Partnership used $25,187,069 of gross offering proceeds to
purchase on an all-cash basis twenty-five parcels of undeveloped land and an
option to purchase undeveloped land. The Limited Partners of the Partnership
share in their portion of benefits of ownership of the Partnership's real
property investments according to the number of Units held. As of December 31,
1998, the Partnership has repurchased a total of 394.75 Units for $350,868 from
various Limited Partners through the Unit Repurchase Program. Under this
program Limited Partners may under certain circumstances have their Units
repurchased for an amount equal to their Invested Capital.
The Partnership is engaged in the business of real estate investment which
management considers to be a single operating segment. A presentation of
information about operating segments would not be material to an understanding
of the Partnership's business taken as a whole.
The Partnership acquired fee ownership of the following real property
investments:

Reference is made to Note 4 of the Notes to Financial Statements (Item 8 of
this Annual Report) for additional descriptions of the Partnership's real
property investments.
The Partnership had purchased on an all-cash basis, twenty-five parcels of
undeveloped land and is engaged in the rezoning and resale of the parcels. All
of the investments were made in the Chicago metropolitan area. The anticipated
holding period of the land was approximately two to seven years from the
completion of the land portfolio acquisitions. As of December 31, 1998, the
Partnership has had multiple sales transactions, through which it has disposed
of approximately 800 acres of the approximately 3,102 acres originally owned.
The General Partner anticipates that land purchased by the Partnership will
produce sufficient income to pay property taxes, insurance and other
miscellaneous expenses. Income will be derived through leases to farmers or
from other activities compatible with undeveloped land. The majority of the
parcels purchased by the Partnership consist of land which generates revenue
from farming or other leasing activities. It is not expected that the
Partnership will generate cash distributions to investors from farm leases or
other activities.
The Partnership had no employees during 1998.
The terms of transactions between the Partnership and Affiliates of the General
Partner of the Partnership are set forth in Item 11 below and Note 3 of the
Notes to Financial Statements (Item 8 of this Annual Report) to which reference
is hereby made for a description of such terms and transactions.
Item 2. Properties
The Partnership owns directly the parcels of land referred to in Item 1 and in
Note 4 of the Notes to Financial Statements (Item 8 of this Annual Report) to
which reference is hereby made for a description of said parcels.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
The Partnership is not subject to any material pending legal proceedings.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
There were no matters submitted to a vote of security holders during 1998.

PART II
Item 5. Market for the Partnership's Limited Partnership Units and Related
Security Holder Matters
As of December 31, 1998, there were 3,278 holders of Units of the Partnership.
There is no public market for Units nor is it anticipated that any public
market for Units will develop.
Although the Partnership has established a Unit Repurchase Program, funds for
repurchase of Units are limited. Reference is made to "Unit Repurchase
Program" on pages 17-18 of the Prospectus of the Partnership dated October 12,
1988, which is incorporated herein by reference. As of December 31, 1998, the
Partnership had approximately $46,750 available for the repurchase of Units.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Certain statements in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" and elsewhere in this annual report on
Form 10-K constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the
Federal Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-
looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other
factors which may cause the Partnership's actual results, performance, or
achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance,
or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These
factors include, among other things, federal, state or local regulations;
adverse changes in general economic or local conditions; uninsured losses; and
potential conflicts of interest between the Partnership and its Affiliates,
including the General Partner.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On October 12, 1988, the Partnership commenced an Offering of 10,000 (subject
to increase to 30,000) Limited Partnership Units pursuant to a Registration
Statement on Form S-11 under the Securities Act of 1933. On October 6, 1989,
the Offering terminated with a total of 30,000 Units sold to the public at
$1,000 per Unit resulting in $30,000,000 in gross offering proceeds, which does
not include the Initial Limited Partner and the General Partner. All of the
holders of these Units have been admitted to the Partnership. The Limited
Partners of the Partnership share in their portion of benefits of ownership of
the Partnership's real property investments according to the number of Units
held.
The Partnership used $25,187,069 of gross offering proceeds to purchase on an
all-cash basis twenty-five parcels of undeveloped land and an option to
purchase undeveloped land. These investments include the payment of the
purchase price, acquisition fees and acquisition costs of such properties.
Fourteen of the parcels were purchased during 1989 and eleven during 1990. As
of December 31, 1998, the Partnership has had multiple sales transactions,
through which it has disposed of approximately 800 acres of the approximately
3,102 acres originally owned. As of December 31, 1998, cumulative distributions
to the Limited Partners have totaled $9,422,838 (which represents a return of
Invested Capital, as defined in the Partnership Agreement) and $153,743 to the
General Partner. Through December 31, 1998, the Partnership has used
$10,861,746 of working capital reserve for rezoning and other activities. Such
amounts have been capitalized and are included in investments in land.
The Partnership's capital needs and resources will vary depending upon a number
of factors, including the extent to which the Partnership conducts rezoning and
other activities relating to utility access, the installation of roads,
subdivision and/or annexation of land to a municipality, changes in real estate
taxes affecting the Partnership's land, and the amount of revenue received from
leasing. As of December 31, 1998, the Partnership owns, in whole or in part,
nineteen of its twenty-five original parcels, the majority of which are leased
to local farmers and are generating sufficient cash flow from farm leases to
cover property taxes and insurance.
-8-
At December 31, 1998, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of
$1,133,942, of which approximately $46,750 is reserved for the repurchase of
Units through the Unit Repurchase Program. The remaining $1,087,192 is
available to be used for the Partnership expenses and liabilities, cash
distributions to partners and other activities with respect to some or all of
its land parcels. The Partnership has increased its parcel sales effort in
anticipation of rising land values.
The Partnership plans to enhance the value of its land through pre-development
activities such as rezoning annexation and land planning. The Partnership has
already been successful in, or is in the process of pre-development activity on
a majority of the Partnership's land investments. Parcels 4, 6 and 7 have
completed one phase of improvements for an industrial park and sites are being
marketed. Parcels 16, 21 and 23 have been zoned with development and sales
marketing underway. The Partnership sold the remaining acres of Parcel 1, 15
and 21 to unaffiliated third-parties (see Note 4 of the Notes to Financial
Statements.)
Results of Operations
As of December 31, 1998, the Partnership owned nineteen parcels of land
consisting of approximately 2,302 acres. Of the 2,302 acres owned,
approximately 2,070 acres are tillable, leased to local farmers and generate
sufficient cash flow to cover property taxes, insurance and other miscellaneous
expenses. Sale of investments in land and improvements and cost of land sold
for the year ended December 31, 1998 is a result of the sale of approximately
272 acres, including the remaining acreage of Parcels 15 and 21 and the sale of
approximately 31 acres of Parcel 16. Sale of investments in land and
improvements and cost of land sold for the year ended December 31, 1997 is a
result of the sale of approximately 89 acres, including the remaining acres of
Parcel 1, the sale of five additional lots of Parcel 15 and the sale of 2.081
acres of Parcel 13. Sale of investments in land and improvements and cost of
land sold for the year ended December 31, 1996 is a result of the sale of
approximately 19 acres, including 4.629 acres of Parcel 24, the sale of six
lots of Parcel 15 totaling 10.53 acres, the sale of 15 lots of Parcel 1
totaling 3.52 acres, and the prepayments of the remaining mortgage loans
receivable and recognition of deferred gain relating to the 1994 lot sales of
Parcel 23. Reference is made to Note 4 of the Notes to Financial Statements
for additional discussion on the sales of the Partnership's real property
investments.
Rental income decreased for the year ended December 31, 1998, as compared to
the year ended December 31, 1997, due to the decrease in tillable acres due to
land sales and pre-development activity on the Partnership's land investments.
This decrease is partially offset by the annual increase in lease amounts from
tenants. Rental income increased for the year ended December 31, 1997, as
compared to the year ended December 31, 1996, due to the annual increase in
lease amounts from tenants.
-9-
Interest income increased for the year ended December 31, 1998, as compared to
the year ended December 31, 1997, due primarily as a result of the interest
income earned on the mortgage loans receivable the Partnership received from
the sales of the remaining acreage of Parcels 1, 15 and 21 and the sale of
approximately 31 acres of Parcel 16. See Note 6 of the Notes to Financial
Statements for further discussion of the terms of the mortgage loans receivable
received from these sales. Interest income decreased for the year ended
December 31, 1997, as compared to the year ended December 31, 1996, due
primarily to the Partnership utilizing its working capital reserve to fund pre-
development activity on the Partnership's land investments.
The other income recorded for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 is the
result of the Partnership receiving non-operating income relating to the
Partnership's land investments.
Professional services to Affiliates increased for the years ended December 31,
1998 and 1997, as compared to the year ended December 31, 1996, due to
increases in legal and accounting services related to the increase in sales
activity within the Partnership. Professional services to non-affiliates
decreased for the year ended December 31, 1998, as compared to the year ended
December 31, 1997, due primarily to a decrease in legal services. Professional
services to non-affiliates increased for the year ended December 31, 1997, as
compared to the year ended December 31, 1996, due to increases in legal and
accounting services related to the increase in sales activity within the
Partnership.
General and administrative expenses to Affiliates decreased for the year ended
December 31, 1998, as compared to the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996,
due primarily to decreases in postage, data processing and investor services
expenses. General and administrative expenses to non-affiliates decreased for
the year ended December 31, 1998, as compared to the year ended December 31,
1997, and increased for the year ended December 31, 1997, as compared to the
year ended December 31, 1996, due primarily to the Illinois Replacement Tax
paid.
Marketing expenses to Affiliates increased for the years ended December 31,
1998 and 1997, as compared to the year ended December 31, 1996, due to the
timing of expenses relating to marketing and advertising the Partnership's land
investments for sale. Marketing expenses to non-affiliates increased for the
year ended December 31, 1998, as compared to the year ended December 31, 1997,
and decreased for the year ended December 31, 1997, as compared to the year
ended December 31, 1996, due to the timing of advertising and travel expenses
relating to marketing the land portfolio to prospective purchasers.
Land operating expenses to Affiliates decreased for the year ended December 31,
1998, as compared to the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, due to a
decrease in Asset Management Fees incurred. Asset Management Fees are limited
to a cumulative total over the life of the Partnership of 2% of the land's
original cost. As of June 30, 1998, the Partnership had met this limit. Land
operating expenses to non-affiliates increased for the years ended December 31,
1998 and 1997, as compared to the year ended December 31, 1996, due to an
increase in real estate taxes and maintenance expenses of the Partnership's
land investments.
-10-
Year 2000 Issues
GENERAL
- -------
Many computer operating systems and software applications were designed such
that the year 1999 is the maximum date that can be processed accurately. In
conducting business, the Partnership relies on computers and operating systems
provided by equipment manufacturers, and also on application software developed
internally and, to a limited extent, by outside software vendors. The
Partnership has assessed its vulnerability to the so-called "Year-2000 Issue"
with respect to its equipment and computer systems.
STATE OF READINESS
- ------------------
The Partnership has identified the following two areas for "Year-2000"
compliance efforts:
Business Computer Systems: The majority of the Partnership's information
technology systems were developed internally and include accounting, lease
management, investment portfolio tracking, and tax return preparation. The
Partnership has rights to the source code for these applications and employs
programmers who are knowledgeable regarding these systems. The process of
testing these internal systems to determine year 2000 compliance is nearly
complete. The Partnership does not anticipate any material costs relating to
its business computer systems regarding year 2000 compliance since the
Partnership's critical hardware and software systems use four digits to
represent the applicable year. The Partnership does use various computers, so-
called "PC's", that may run software that may not use four digits to represent
the applicable year. The Partnership is in the process of testing the PC
hardware and software to determine year 2000 compliance, but it must be noted
that such PC's are incidental to the Partnership's critical systems. The
Partnership is considering independent testing of its critical systems.
Suppliers and other Parties: The Partnership is in the process of surveying
suppliers and other parties with whom the Partnership does a significant amount
of business to identify the Partnership's potential exposure in the event such
parties are not year 2000 compliant in a timely manner. At this time, the
Partnership is not aware of any party that is anticipating a material Year 2000
compliance issue. However, since this area involves some parties over which
the Partnership has no control, such as public utility companies, it is
difficult, at best, to judge the status of the outside companies' year 2000
compliance. The Partnership is working closely with all suppliers of goods and
services in an effort to minimize the impact of the failure of any supplier to
become year 2000 compliant by December 31, 1999. The Partnership's
investigations and assessments of possible year 2000 issues are in a
preliminary stage, and currently the Partnership is not aware of any material
impact on its business, operations or financial condition even if one or more
parties is not Year 2000 compliant in a timely manner, due to the number and
nature of the Partnership's diverse supplier base.
-11-
YEAR 2000 RISKS
- ---------------
The most reasonable likely worst case scenario for the Partnership with respect
to the year 2000 non-compliance of its business computer systems would be the
inability to access information which could result in the failure to issue
financial reports.
YEAR 2000 COSTS
- ---------------
The Partnership's General Partner and its Affiliates estimate that costs to
achieve year 2000 compliance will not exceed $100,000. However, only
approximately 1% of these costs will be directly allocated to and paid by the
Partnership. The balance of the year 2000 compliance costs, approximately 99%,
will be paid by the General Partner and its Affiliates. Total year 2000
compliance costs incurred through December 31, 1998 are estimated at
approximately $5,000.
CONTINGENCY PLAN
- ----------------
The Partnership is expects to be Year 2000 compliant in advance of the year
2000. The Partnership will continue to monitor its progress and state of
readiness, and is in the process of formulating a contingency plan which the
Partnership will be prepared to adopt with respect to areas in which evidence
arises that it may not become Year 2000 compliant in sufficient time. With
respect to its suppliers and other parties with whom the Partnership conducts
business, the Partnership does not yet have sufficient information to identify
the types of problems it may encounter in the event these third parties are not
Year 2000 compliant. As information is obtained that may indicate such parties
may not become Year 2000 compliant in sufficient time, the Partnership is
prepared to develop contingency plans, accordingly.
Inflation
Inflation in future periods may cause capital appreciation of the Partnership's
investments in land. Rental income levels (from leases to new tenants or
renewals of existing tenants) will rise and fall in accordance with normal
agricultural market conditions and may or may not be affected by inflation.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Inland Land Appreciation
Fund, L.P. (a limited partnership) as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
related statements of operations, partners' capital, and cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. 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, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Inland Land Appreciation Fund, L.P. as of
December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

INLAND LAND APPRECIATION FUND, L.P.
(a limited partnership)
Notes to Financial Statements
For the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996
(1) Organization and Basis of Accounting
The Registrant, Inland Land Appreciation Fund, L.P. (the "Partnership"), was
formed in October 1987, pursuant to the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited
Partnership Act, to invest in undeveloped land on an all-cash basis and realize
appreciation of such land upon resale. On October 12, 1988, the Partnership
commenced an Offering of 10,000 (subject to increase to 30,000) Limited
Partnership Units ("Units") pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-11
under the Securities Act of 1933. Inland Real Estate Investment Corporation is
the General Partner. The Offering terminated on October 6, 1989, with total
sales of 30,000 Units, at $1,000 per Unit, not including the General Partner or
the Initial Limited Partner. All of the holders of these Units have been
admitted to this Partnership. The Limited Partners of the Partnership share in
their portion of benefits of ownership of the Partnership's real property
investments according to the number of Units held. As of December 31, 1998,
the Partnership has repurchased a total of 394.75 Units for $350,868 from
various Limited Partners through the Unit Repurchase Program. Under this
program Limited Partners may under certain circumstances have their Units
repurchased for an amount equal to their Invested Capital.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles 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.
Offering costs have been offset against the Limited Partners' capital accounts.
The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents and are carried at
cost, which approximates market.
Except as described in footnote (b) to Note 4 of these notes, the Partnership
uses the area method of allocation, which approximates the relative sales
method of allocation, whereby a per acre price is used as the standard
allocation method for land purchases and sales. The total cost of the parcel
is divided by the total number of acres to arrive at a per acre price.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of"
("SFAS 121") requires the Partnership to record an impairment loss on its
property to be held for investment whenever its carrying value cannot be fully
recovered through estimated undiscounted future cash flows from their
operations and sale. The amount of the impairment loss to be recognized would
be the difference between the property's carrying value and the property's
estimated fair value. As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Partnership has
not recognized any such impairment.

INLAND LAND APPRECIATION FUND, L.P.
(a limited partnership)
Notes to Financial Statements
(continued)
The Partnership is required to pay a withholding tax to the Internal Revenue
Service with respect to a Partner's allocable share of the Partnership's
taxable net income, if the Partner is a foreign person. The Partnership will
first pay the withholding tax from the distributions to any foreign partner,
and to the extent that the tax exceeds the amount of distributions withheld, or
if there have been no distributions to withhold, the excess will be accounted
for as a distribution to the foreign partner. Withholding tax payments are made
every April, June, September and December.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 "Earnings per Share" was
adopted by the Partnership for the year ended December 31, 1997 and has been
applied to all prior earnings periods presented in the financial statements.
The Partnership has no dilutive securities.
A presentation of information about operating segments as required in Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 "Disclosures About Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information" would not be material to an understanding
of the Partnership's business taken as a whole as the Partnership is engaged in
the business of real estate investment which management considers to be a
single operating segment.
No provision for Federal income taxes has been made as the liability for such
taxes is that of the Partners rather than the Partnership.
The Partnership's records are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The Federal
income tax return has been prepared from such records after making appropriate
adjustments, if any, to reflect the Partnership's accounts as adjusted for
Federal income tax reporting purposes. Such adjustments are not recorded in
the records of the Partnership. The net effect of these items is summarized as
follows:
1998 1997

Net income per Limited
Partnership Unit........ 68.47 68.51 5.85 5.82
The net income per Unit is based upon the weighted average number of Units of
29,621.04 and 29,639.10 during 1998 and 1997, respectively.

Notes to Financial Statements
(continued)
(2) Partnership Agreement
The Partnership Agreement defines the allocation of profits and losses, and
available cash. If and to the extent that real estate taxes and insurance
payable with respect to the Partnership's land during a given year exceed
revenues of the Partnership, the General Partner will make a Supplemental
Capital Contribution of such amount to the Partnership to ensure that it has
sufficient funds to make such payments.
Profits and losses from operations (other than capital transactions) will be
allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner. The net
gain from a sale of Partnership properties is first allocated among the
Partners in proportion to the negative balances, if any, in their respective
capital accounts. Thereafter, except as provided below, net gain is allocated
to the General Partner in an amount equal to the proceeds distributed to the
General Partner from such sale and the balance of any net gain is allocated to
the Limited Partners. If the amount of net gain realized from a sale is less
than the amount of cash distributed to the General Partner from such sale, the
Partnership will allocate income or gain to the General Partner in an amount
equal to the excess of the cash distributed to the General Partner with respect
to such sale as quickly as permitted by law. Any net loss from a sale will be
allocated to the Limited Partners.
Distributions of Net Sale Proceeds will be allocated between the General
Partner and the Limited Partners based upon both an aggregate overall return to
the Limited Partners and a separate return with respect to each parcel of land
purchased by the Partnership.
As a general rule, Net Sale Proceeds will be distributed 90% to the Limited
Partners and 10% to the General Partner until the Limited Partners have
received from Net Sale Proceeds (i) a return of their Original Capital plus
(ii) a noncompounded Cumulative Preferred Return of 15% of their Invested
Capital. However, with respect to each parcel of land, the General Partner's
10% share will be subordinated until the Limited Partners receive a return of
the Original Capital attributed to such parcel ("Parcel Capital") plus a 6% per
annum noncompounded Cumulative Preferred Return thereon.
After the amounts described in items (i) and (ii) above and any previously
subordinated distributions to the General Partner have been paid, and the
amount of any Supplemental Capital Contributions have been repaid to the
General Partner, subsequent distributions shall be paid 75% to the Limited
Partners and 25% to the General Partner without considering Parcel Capital.
If, after all Net Sale Proceeds have been distributed, the General Partner has
received more than 25% of all Net Sale Proceeds (exclusive of distributions
made to the Limited Partners to return their Original Capital), the General
Partner shall contribute to the Partnership for distribution to the Limited
Partners an amount equal to such excess.
-24-
INLAND LAND APPRECIATION FUND, L.P.
(a limited partnership)
Notes to Financial Statements
(continued)
Any distributions from Net Sale Proceeds at a time when Invested Capital is
greater than zero shall be deemed applied first as a reduction of such Invested
Capital before application to payment of any deficiency in the 15% Cumulative
Preferred Return.
(3) Transactions with Affiliates
The General Partner and its Affiliates are entitled to reimbursement for
salaries and expenses of employees of the General Partner and its Affiliates
relating to the administration of the Partnership. Such costs are included in
professional services and general and administrative expenses to Affiliates, of
which $65,066 and $90,278 was unpaid as of December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.
The General Partner is entitled to receive Asset Management Fees equal to one-
quarter of 1% of the original cost to the Partnership of undeveloped land
annually, limited to a cumulative total over the life of the Partnership of 2%
of the land's original cost to the Partnership. As of June 30, 1998, the
Partnership had met this limit. Such fees of $25,858, $55,279 and $56,774 have
been incurred for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively, and are included in land operating expenses to Affiliates, of
which $81,136 and $55,279 was unpaid as of December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.
An Affiliate of the General Partner performed marketing and advertising
services for the Partnership and was reimbursed (as set forth under terms of
the Partnership Agreement) for direct costs. Such costs of $90,279, $123,333
and $57,870 have been incurred and are included in marketing expenses to
Affiliates for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively,
of which $14,829 and $151,908 was unpaid as of December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.
An Affiliate of the General Partner performed property upgrades, rezoning,
annexation and other activities to prepare the Partnership's land investments
for sale and was reimbursed (as set forth under terms of the Partnership
Agreement) for salaries and direct costs. The Affiliate did not recognize a
profit on any project. Such costs of $188,506 and $233,540 have been incurred
for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and are included
in investments in land, of which $0 and $113,878 was unpaid as of December 31,
1998 and 1997, respectively.
