Item 1. Business
Consolidated Capital Institutional Properties/3 was organized on May 23, 1984, as a limited partnership under the California Uniform Limited Partnership Act. Commencing July 23, 1985, the Partnership offered 800,000 Units of Limited Partnership Interests (the "Units") at a purchase price of $250 per Unit pursuant to a Registration Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Units represent equity interests in the Partnership and entitle the holders thereof to participate in certain allocations and distributions of the Partnership. The sale of Units terminated on May 15, 1987, with 383,033 Units sold for an aggregate of approximately $95,758,000. Since its initial offering, the Partnership has not received, nor are limited partners required to make, additional capital contributions.
The general partner of the Partnership is ConCap Equities, Inc. ("CEI" or the "General Partner"), a Delaware corporation. The General Partner is a subsidiary of Apartment Investment and Management Company ("AIMCO"), a publicly traded real estate investment trust. The Partnership Agreement provides that the Partnership is to terminate on December 31, 2015 unless terminated prior to such date.
On October 2, 2008, the Partnership changed its domicile from California to Delaware by merging with and into Consolidated Capital Institutional Properties/3, LP, a Delaware limited partnership, with the Delaware partnership as the surviving entity in the merger. The merger was undertaken pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 29, 2008, by and between the California partnership and the Delaware partnership.
Under the merger agreement, each unit of limited partnership interest in the California partnership was converted into an identical unit of limited partnership interest in the Delaware partnership and the general partnership interest in the California partnership previously held by the general partner was converted into a general partnership interest in the Delaware partnership. All interests in the Delaware partnership outstanding immediately prior to the merger were cancelled in the merger.
The voting and other rights of the limited partners provided for in the partnership agreement were not changed as a result of the merger. In the merger, the partnership agreement of the California partnership was adopted as the partnership agreement of the Delaware partnership, with the following changes: (i) references therein to the California Uniform Limited Partnership Act were amended to refer to the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act; (ii) a description of the merger was added; (iii) the name of the partnership was changed to “Consolidated Capital Institutional Properties/3, LP” and (iv) a provision was added that gives the general partner authority to establish different designated series of limited partnership interests that have separate rights with respect to specified partnership property, and profits and losses associated with such specified property.
The Partnership is engaged in the business of operating and holding real estate properties for investment. The Partnership was formed for the benefit of its Limited Partners (herein so called and together with the General Partner shall be called the "Partners") to lend funds to ConCap Equity Partners/3, ConCap Equity Partners/4, and ConCap Equity Partners/5 ("EP/3", "EP/4" and "EP/5", respectively). EP/3, EP/4 and EP/5 represent California limited partnerships in which certain of the partners were former shareholders and former management of Consolidated Capital Equities Corporation ("CCEC"), the former corporate general partner of the Partnership.
Through December 31, 1994, the Partnership had made twelve specific loans against a Master Loan agreement and advanced a total of $67,300,000 (the "Master Loan"). EP/3 used $17,300,000 of the loaned funds to purchase two apartment complexes and one office building. EP/4 used $34,700,000 of the loaned funds to purchase four apartment complexes and one office building, which was subsequently sold in 1989. EP/5 used $15,300,000 of the loaned funds to purchase two apartment complexes and two office buildings. Through a series of transactions, the Partnership has acquired all of EP/3, EP/4 and EP/5's properties in full settlement of their liability under the Master Loan. For a brief description of the properties owned by the Partnership refer to "Item 2. Properties".
Upon the Partnership's formation in 1984, CCEC, a Colorado corporation, was the corporate general partner. In 1988, through a series of transactions, Southmark Corporation ("Southmark") acquired controlling interest in CCEC. In December 1988, CCEC filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. In 1990, as part of CCEC's reorganization plan, CEI acquired CCEC's general partner interests in the Partnership and in 15 other affiliated public limited partnerships (the "Affiliated Partnerships") and CEI replaced CCEC as managing general partner in all 16 partnerships. The selection of CEI as the sole managing general partner was approved by a majority of the limited partners in the Partnership and in each of the Affiliated Partnerships pursuant to a solicitation of the Limited Partners dated August 10, 1990. As part of this solicitation, the Limited Partners also approved an amendment to the Partnership Agreement to limit changes of control of the Partnership. As of December 31, 2008, AIMCO IPLP, L.P. an affiliate of AIMCO, owned 100% of the outstanding stock of CEI.
At December 31, 2008, the Partnership owned five apartment complexes located in Florida, North Carolina, Washington and Colorado.
The Partnership has no employees. Management and administrative services are provided by the General Partner and by agents retained by the General Partner. An affiliate of the General Partner provides such property management services at the Partnership’s properties.
Item 1A.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
The risk factors noted in this section and other factors noted throughout this Annual Report describe certain risks and uncertainties that could cause the Partnership’s actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement.
The Partnership’s existing and future debt financing could render it unable to operate, result in foreclosure on its properties, prevent it from making distributions on its equity or otherwise adversely affect its liquidity.
The Partnership is subject to the risk that its cash flow from operations will be insufficient to make required payments of principal and interest, and the risk that existing indebtedness may not be refinanced or that the terms of any refinancing will not be as favorable as the terms of existing indebtedness. If the Partnership fails to make required payments of principal and interest on secured debt, its lender could foreclose on the properties securing such debt, which would result in loss of income and asset value to the Partnership. Payments of principal and interest may leave the Partnership with insufficient cash resources to operate its properties or pay distributions.
Disruptions in the financial markets could affect the Partnership’s ability to obtain financing and the cost of available financing and could adversely affect the Partnership’s liquidity.
The Partnership’s ability to obtain financing and the cost of such financing depends on the overall condition of the United States credit markets and the level of involvement of certain government sponsored entities, specifically, Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, or Freddie Mac, and Federal National Mortgage Association, or Fannie Mae, in secondary credit markets. Recently the United States credit markets have experienced significant liquidity disruptions, which have caused the spreads on debt financings to widen considerably and have made obtaining financing more difficult. Further or prolonged disruptions in the credit markets could result in Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae reducing their level of involvement in secondary credit markets which would adversely affect the Partnership’s ability to obtain non-recourse property debt financing.
Failure to generate sufficient net operating income may limit the Partnership’s ability to fund necessary capital expenditures or the Partnership’s ability to repay advances from affiliates.
The Partnership’s ability to fund necessary capital expenditures on its properties depends on its ability to generate net operating income in excess of required debt payments. If the Partnership is unable to fund capital expenditures on its properties, the Partnership may not be able to preserve the competitiveness of its properties, which could adversely affect the Partnership’s net operating income.
The Partnership’s ability to repay advances from affiliates depends on its ability to generate net operating income in excess of required debt payments and capital expenditure requirements. Net operating income and liquidity may be adversely affected by events or conditions beyond the Partnership’s control, including:
the general economic climate;
competition from other apartment communities and other housing options;
local conditions, such as loss of jobs or an increase in the supply of apartments, that might adversely affect apartment occupancy or rental rates;
changes in governmental regulations and the related cost of compliance;
increases in operating costs (including real estate taxes) due to inflation and other factors, which may not be offset by increased rents;
changes in tax laws and housing laws, including the enactment of rent control laws or other laws regulating multifamily housing; and
changes in interest rates and the availability of financing.
Competition could limit the Partnership’s ability to lease apartments or increase or maintain rents.
The Partnership’s apartment properties compete for residents with other housing alternatives, including other rental apartments, condominiums and single-family homes that are available for rent, as well as new and existing condominiums and single-family homes for sale. Competitive residential housing in a particular area could adversely affect the Partnership’s ability to lease apartments and to increase or maintain rental rates. The current challenges in the credit and housing markets have increased housing inventory that competes with the Partnership’s properties.
Laws benefiting disabled persons may result in the Partnership’s incurrence of unanticipated expenses.
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, or ADA, all places intended to be used by the public are required to meet certain Federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. Likewise, the Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988, or FHAA, requires apartment properties first occupied after March 13, 1990, to be accessible to the handicapped. These and other Federal, state and local laws may require modifications to the Partnership’s properties, or affect renovations of the properties. Noncompliance with these laws could result in the imposition of fines or an award of damages to private litigants and also could result in an order to correct any non-complying feature, which could result in substantial capital expenditures. Although the Partnership believes that its properties are substantially in compliance with present requirements, the Partnership may incur unanticipated expenses to comply with the ADA and the FHAA in connection with the ongoing operation of its properties.
Potential liability or other expenditures associated with potential environmental contamination may be costly.
Various Federal, state and local laws subject property owners or operators to liability for management, and the costs of removal or remediation, of certain hazardous substances present on a property, including lead-based paint. Such laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the release or presence of the hazardous substances. The presence of, or the failure to manage or remedy properly, hazardous substances may adversely affect occupancy at affected apartment communities and the ability to sell or finance affected properties. In addition to the costs associated with investigation and remediation actions brought by government agencies, and potential fines or penalties imposed by such agencies in connection therewith, the presence of hazardous substances on a property could result in claims by private plaintiffs for personal injury, disease, disability or other infirmities. Various laws also impose liability for the cost of removal, remediation or disposal of hazardous substances through a licensed disposal or treatment facility. Anyone who arranges for the disposal or treatment of hazardous substances is potentially liable under such laws. These laws often impose liability whether or not the person arranging for the disposal ever owned or operated the disposal facility. In connection with the ownership, operation and management of its properties, the Partnership could potentially be liable for environmental liabilities or costs associated with its properties.
Moisture infiltration and resulting mold remediation may be costly.
The Partnership is aware of lawsuits against owners and managers of multifamily properties asserting claims of personal injury and property damage caused by the presence of mold, some of which have resulted in substantial monetary judgments or settlements. The Partnership has only limited insurance coverage for property damage loss claims arising from the presence of mold and for personal injury claims related to mold exposure. Affiliates of the General Partner have implemented policies, procedures, third-party audits and training and the General Partner believes that these measures will prevent or eliminate mold exposure and will minimize the effects that mold may have on residents. To date, the Partnership has not incurred any material costs or liabilities relating to claims of mold exposure. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Partnership incurred approximately $206,000 related to mold abatement conditions that occurred at Cedar Rim Apartments and an additional $88,000 during the year ended December 31, 2008. Because the law regarding mold is unsettled and subject to change the General Partner can make no assurance that liabilities resulting from the presence of or exposure to mold will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership’s financial condition or results of operations.
A further description of the Partnership's business is included in "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" included in this Form 10-K.

(1) Fixed rate mortgages
(2) See "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note C" for information with respect to the Partnership's ability to prepay the loans and other specific details about the loans.
On August 31, 2007, the Partnership obtained a second mortgage in the principal amount of $4,200,000 on Lamplighter Park Apartments. The second mortgage bears interest at a fixed interest rate of 5.93% per annum and requires monthly payments of principal and interest of approximately $25,000 beginning October 1, 2007 through the July 1, 2019 maturity date. The second mortgage has a balloon payment of approximately $3,339,000 due at maturity. If no event of default exists at maturity, the maturity date will automatically be extended for one additional year to July 1, 2020, during which period the second mortgage would bear interest at the one-month LIBOR rate plus 250 basis points and would require monthly payments of principal and interest. The Partnership may prepay the second mortgage at any time with 30 days written notice to the lender subject to a prepayment penalty. As a condition of the loan, the lender required AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the Partnership, to guarantee certain non-recourse obligations and liabilities of the Partnership with respect to the new mortgage financing. In connection with the new loan, loans costs of approximately $107,000 were capitalized and are included in other assets.
In connection with the second mortgage loan, the Partnership also agreed to certain modifications on the existing mortgage loan encumbering Lamplighter Park Apartments. The modification includes an interest rate of 7.48% per annum and monthly payments of principal and interest of approximately $46,000, commencing October 1, 2007, through the maturity date of July 1, 2021, at which time a balloon payment of approximately $5,224,000 is due. The previous terms were an interest rate of 7.48% per annum and monthly payments of principal and interest of approximately $64,000 through the maturity date of July 1, 2021, at which date the mortgage was scheduled to be fully amortized. The Partnership may prepay the first mortgage loan at any time subject to a prepayment penalty. As a condition of the loan, the lender required AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the Partnership, to guarantee certain non-recourse obligations and liabilities of the Partnership with respect to the modified loan.
Schedule of Rental Rates and Occupancy
Average annual rental rates and occupancy for 2008 and 2007 for each property were as follows:
(1) The General Partner attributes the increase in occupancy at Cedar Rim Apartments to the availability of apartment units at the property as the redevelopment of the property was completed. As of December 31, 2008 the redevelopment was complete.
(2) The General Partner attributes the increase in occupancy at Sienna Bay Apartments to completion of the redevelopment of the property during the first quarter of 2008.
As noted under "Item 1. Business", the real estate industry is highly competitive. All of the Partnership's properties are subject to competition from other residential apartment complexes in the area. The General Partner believes that all of the properties are adequately insured. The properties are apartment complexes which lease units for terms of one year or less. No tenant leases 10% or more of the available rental space. The properties are in good physical condition, subject to normal depreciation and deterioration as is typical for assets of this type and age.

Capital Improvements
Cedar Rim Apartments
During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Partnership completed approximately $3,547,000 of capital improvements arising from the redevelopment of the property, which includes capitalization of construction period interest of approximately $141,000, construction period property taxes of approximately $8,000, and other construction period operating costs of approximately $19,000. The property underwent a redevelopment project in order to become more competitive with other properties in the area in an effort to increase net operating income at the property. The redevelopment consisted of site, building exterior, common area and unit interior improvements. The site improvements consisted of landscape enhancements and replacements, lighting upgrades, replacing pool area with a renovated sundeck area, construction of a maintenance shop and storage building and the addition of covered parking spaces. The building exterior improvements consisted of roof replacements, gutter improvements, foundation work, replacement of all exterior siding and balcony and stairwell improvements. The common area improvements consisted of the reconstruction of mail box kiosks. The unit interior improvements consisted of kitchen and bath upgrades, replacement of appliances, and other interior renovations. The redevelopment was completed during the fourth quarter of 2008 at a total cost of approximately $14,428,000, of which approximately $10,881,000 was completed during the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006. The project was funded by the Partnership’s operating cash flow and advances from AIMCO Properties, L.P., although AIMCO Properties, L.P. was not obligated to fund such advances. Additional capital improvements of approximately $313,000 were completed during the year ended December 31, 2008 and consisted primarily of building improvements and furniture replacements. The Partnership regularly evaluates the capital improvement needs of the property. While the Partnership has no material commitments for property improvements and replacements, certain routine capital expenditures are anticipated during 2009. Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as anticipated cash flow generated by the property.
Lamplighter Park Apartments
During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Partnership completed approximately $529,000 of capital improvements at the property consisting primarily of recreation facility improvements, roof and building improvements, swimming pool resurfacing, exterior painting, floor covering and appliance replacements. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow, insurance proceeds and advances from AIMCO Properties, L.P., although AIMCO Properties, L.P. is not obligated to fund such advances. The Partnership regularly evaluates the capital improvement needs of the property. While the Partnership has no material commitments for property improvements and replacements, certain routine capital expenditures are anticipated during 2009. Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as anticipated cash flow generated by the property.
Park Capitol Apartments
During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Partnership completed approximately $89,000 of capital improvements at the property consisting primarily of floor covering replacements, swimming pool resurfacing and structural improvements. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow. This property was sold during June 2008.
Tamarac Village Apartments
During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Partnership completed approximately $625,000 of capital improvements at the property consisting primarily of land entitlements, elevator improvements, floor covering, appliance and roof replacements, kitchen and bath resurfacing, structural improvements, recreational facility improvements and exterior painting. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow and advances from AIMCO Properties, L.P., although AIMCO Properties, L.P. is not obligated to fund such advances. The Partnership regularly evaluates the capital improvement needs of the property. While the Partnership has no material commitments for property improvements and replacements, certain routine capital expenditures are anticipated during 2009. Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as anticipated cash flow generated by the property.
Williamsburg Manor Apartments
During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Partnership completed approximately $200,000 of capital improvements at the property consisting primarily of floor covering and appliance replacements and building improvements. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow, insurance proceeds and advances from AIMCO Properties, L.P., although AIMCO Properties, L.P. is not obligated to fund such advances. The Partnership regularly evaluates the capital improvement needs of the property. While the Partnership has no material commitments for property improvements and replacements, certain routine capital expenditures are anticipated during 2009. Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as anticipated cash flow generated by the property.
Sienna Bay Apartments
During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Partnership completed approximately $5,000 of capital improvements arising from the redevelopment of the property. Additional capital improvements of approximately $944,000 were completed and consisted primarily of sidewalk, floor covering and furniture replacements, electrical and fire safety improvements and electrical conservation upgrades. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow and advances from AIMCO Properties, L.P., although AIMCO Properties, L.P. is not obligated to fund such advances. During 2005, the Partnership began a major redevelopment project at Sienna Bay Apartments in order to become more competitive with other properties in the area in an effort to increase occupancy at the property. As of December 31, 2008 the redevelopment was complete. The total cost of the redevelopment was approximately $6,780,000, of which approximately $5,000 was completed during the year ended December 31, 2008, as mentioned above. The Partnership regularly evaluates the capital improvement needs of the property. While the Partnership has no material commitments for property improvements and replacements, certain routine capital expenditures are anticipated in 2009. Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as anticipated cash flow generated by the property.
Capital expenditures will be incurred only if cash is available from operations, Partnership reserves or advances from AIMCO Properties, L.P., although AIMCO Properties, L.P. is not obligated to fund such advances. To the extent that capital improvements are completed, the Partnership's distributable cash flow, if any, may be adversely affected at least in the short term.
Item 3.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
As previously disclosed, AIMCO Properties, L.P. and NHP Management Company, both affiliates of the General Partner, were defendants in a lawsuit, filed as a collective action in August 2003 in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, alleging that they willfully violated the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”) by failing to pay maintenance workers overtime for time worked in excess of 40 hours per week (“overtime claims”). The plaintiffs also contended that AIMCO Properties, L.P. and NHP Management Company failed to compensate maintenance workers for time that they were required to be "on-call" (“on-call claims”). In March 2007, the court in the District of Columbia decertified the collective action. In July 2007, plaintiffs’ counsel filed individual cases in Federal court in 22 jurisdictions. In the second quarter of 2008, AIMCO Properties, L.P. settled the overtime cases involving 652 plaintiffs and established a framework for resolving the 88 remaining “on-call” claims and the attorneys’ fees claimed by plaintiffs’ counsel. As a result, the lawsuits asserted in the 22 Federal courts will be dismissed. During the fourth quarter of 2008, the Partnership paid approximately $4,800 for settlement amounts for alleged unpaid overtime to employees who had worked at the Partnership’s investment properties. At this time, the 88 remaining “on-call” claims and the attorneys’ fees claimed by plaintiffs’ counsel are not resolved. The General Partner is uncertain as to the amount of any additional loss that may be allocable to the Partnership. Therefore, the Partnership cannot estimate whether any additional loss will occur or a potential range of loss.
Item 4.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
During the quarter ended December 31, 2008, no matter was submitted to a vote of the Unit holders through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise.
PART II
Item 5.
Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Common Equity, Related Security Holder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
The Partnership, a publicly held limited partnership, sold 383,033 limited partnership units (the "Units") aggregating approximately $95,758,000. The Partnership currently has 6,876 holders of record owning an aggregate of 382,997 Units. Affiliates of the General Partner owned 239,212 units or 62.46% at December 31, 2008. No public trading market has developed for the Units, and it is not anticipated that such a market will develop in the future.
The Partnership made no distributions during the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007. Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of cash generated from operations, and the timing of debt maturities, property sales and/or refinancings. The Partnership's cash available for distribution is reviewed on a monthly basis. In light of the amounts accrued and payable to affiliates of the General Partner at December 31, 2008, it is unlikely that the Partnership will generate sufficient funds from operations, after planned capital expenditures and repayment of amounts accrued and payable to affiliates, to permit any distributions to its partners for the foreseeable future. See "Item 2. Properties - Capital Improvements" for information relating to anticipated capital expenditures at the properties.
In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partner interest in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 239,212 Units in the Partnership representing 62.46% of the outstanding Units at December 31, 2008. A number of these Units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. It is possible that AIMCO or its affiliates will acquire additional Units in exchange for cash or a combination of cash and units in AIMCO Properties, L.P., the operating partnership of AIMCO, either through private purchases or tender offers. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, unitholders holding a majority of the Units are entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters that include, but are not limited to, voting on certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting to remove the General Partner. As a result of its ownership of 62.46% of the outstanding Units, AIMCO and its affiliates are in a position to control all such voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. Although the General Partner owes fiduciary duties to the limited partners of the Partnership, the General Partner also owes fiduciary duties to AIMCO as its sole stockholder. As a result, the duties of the General Partner, as general partner, to the Partnership and its limited partners may come into conflict with the duties of the General Partner to AIMCO as its sole stockholder.
Item 7.
Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
This item should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and other items contained elsewhere in this report.
The Partnership’s financial results depend upon a number of factors including the ability to attract and maintain tenants at the investment properties, interest rates on mortgage loans, costs incurred to operate the investment properties, general economic conditions and weather. As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the General Partner monitors the rental market environment of each of its investment properties to assess the feasibility of increasing rents, maintaining or increasing occupancy levels and protecting the Partnership from increases in expenses. As part of this plan, the General Partner attempts to protect the Partnership from the burden of inflation-related increases in expenses by increasing rents and maintaining a high overall occupancy level. However, the General Partner may use rental concessions and rental rate reductions to offset softening market conditions, accordingly, there is no guarantee that the General Partner will be able to sustain such a plan. Further, a number of factors that are outside the control of the Partnership such as the local economic climate and weather can adversely or positively affect the Partnership’s financial results.
Results of Operations
The Partnership’s net income was approximately $5,189,000 for the year ended December 31, 2008 compared to a net loss of approximately $1,004,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007. The increase in net income for the year ended December 31, 2008 is primarily due to an increase in the recognition of a gain on the sale of discontinued operations, an increase in the recognition of casualty gains, a decrease in loss from discontinued operations and an increase in total revenues partially offset by an increase in total expenses.
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, the accompanying statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2007 has been restated to reflect the operations of Park Capitol Apartments as discontinued operations as a result of the sale of the property in June 2008. The accompanying statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2007 also includes the operations of Hidden Cove by the Lake Apartments as discontinued operations as a result of the sale of the property in August 2007.
On June 6, 2008, the Partnership sold Park Capitol Apartments to a third party for a gross sales price of $12,250,000. The net proceeds realized by the Partnership were approximately $11,904,000 after payment of closing costs. The Partnership used approximately $4,738,000 of the net proceeds to repay the mortgage encumbering the property. The Partnership realized a gain on sale of discontinued operations of approximately $9,924,000 during the year ended December 31, 2008 as a result of the sale. In addition, the Partnership recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $383,000 due to the write-off of unamortized loan costs and the payment of a prepayment penalty associated with the payment of the mortgage of approximately $315,000. The loss on extinguishment of debt is included in loss from discontinued operations.
On August 16, 2007, the Partnership sold Hidden Cove by the Lake Apartments to a third party for a gross sales price of $4,100,000. The net proceeds realized by the Partnership were approximately $3,992,000 after payment of closing costs of approximately $108,000. The Partnership used approximately $2,379,000 of the net proceeds to repay the mortgage encumbering the property. The Partnership realized a gain on sale of discontinued operations of approximately $2,382,000 during the year ended December 31, 2007 as a result of the sale. In addition, the Partnership recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $437,000 due to the write-off of unamortized loan costs and the payment of a prepayment penalty associated with the payment of the mortgage of approximately $351,000. The loss on extinguishment of debt is included in loss from discontinued operations.
The following table presents summarized results of operations related to the Partnership’s discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 (in thousands):
During February 2007, one of the Partnership’s investment properties, Hidden Cove by the Lake Apartments, sustained water damage from a pipe break of approximately $35,000. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Partnership received approximately $26,000 in insurance proceeds and recognized a casualty gain of approximately $22,000 as a result of the write off of undepreciated damaged assets of approximately $4,000, which is included in loss from discontinued operations.
The Partnership recognized a loss from continuing operations of approximately $4,427,000 for the year ended December 31, 2008 compared to loss from continuing operations of approximately $3,005,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007. The increase in loss from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2008 is due to an increase in total expenses partially offset by an increase in total revenues and an increase in the recognition of casualty gains.
Total revenues increased for the year ended December 31, 2008 due to increases in both rental and other income. Rental income increased for the year ended December 31, 2008 due to an increase in the average rental rates at all of the Partnership’s investment properties except Sienna Bay Apartments and increases in the average occupancy of all the Partnership’s investment properties, except Williamsburg Manor and Lamplighter Park Apartments. Other income increased for the year ended December 31, 2008 due to an increase in tenant utility reimbursements at all of the Partnership’s investment properties and lease cancellation fees at all of the Partnership’s investment properties with the exception of Sienna Bay Apartments.
During September 2007, one of the Partnership’s investment properties, Williamsburg Manor Apartments, sustained fire damage. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Partnership received approximately $25,000 in insurance proceeds and recognized a casualty gain of approximately $8,000 as a result of the write off of undepreciated damaged assets of approximately $17,000. During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Partnership received approximately $38,000 in additional insurance proceeds and recognized an additional casualty gain of approximately $33,000 as a result of an additional write off of undepreciated damaged assets of approximately $5,000. The Partnership does not expect to receive any further insurance proceeds related to this casualty.
During December 2007, one of the Partnership’s investment properties, Lamplighter Park Apartments, sustained flood damage to several of its apartment units of approximately $70,000. The casualty gain recognized by the Partnership as of December 31, 2008 was approximately $60,000 as a result of receiving approximately $108,000 in insurance proceeds during the year ended December 31, 2008, of which approximately $38,000 was for emergency expenses, and writing off undepreciated assets of approximately $10,000. The Partnership does not expect to receive any further insurance proceeds related to this casualty.
During December 2006, one of the Partnership’s investment properties, Tamarac Village Apartments, incurred damage from a roof leak of approximately $35,000. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Partnership received approximately $25,000 in insurance proceeds and recognized a casualty gain of approximately $19,000 as a result of the write off of undepreciated damaged assets of approximately $6,000.
During June 2008, one of the Partnership’s investment properties, Lamplighter Park Apartments, sustained damage from a fire of approximately $24,000. Subsequent to December 31, 2008, the Partnership received approximately $14,000 in insurance proceeds and is expected to recognize a casualty gain of approximately $11,000 as a result of the write off of undepreciated damaged assets of approximately $3,000 during the first quarter of 2009. In addition, the Partnership received approximately $3,000 for lost rents associated with the casualty event, which is included in rental income.
During August 2008, one of the Partnership’s investment properties, Lamplighter Park Apartments, sustained damage from a fire. The estimated cost of the damages is approximately $30,000 which includes clean up costs of approximately $9,000. The General Partner anticipates that the insurance proceeds to be received will be sufficient to cover the damages and no casualty loss will result from this event.
During January 2007, one of the Partnership’s investment properties, Tamarac Village Apartments, sustained damage from a pipe break of approximately $27,000. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Partnership received approximately $17,000 in insurance proceeds and recognized a casualty gain of approximately $11,000 as a result of the write off of undepreciated damaged assets of approximately $6,000.
During December 2006, one of the Partnership’s investment properties, Lamplighter Park Apartments, sustained storm damage. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Partnership received approximately $28,000 in insurance proceeds and recognized a casualty gain of approximately $21,000 as a result of the write off of undepreciated damaged assets of approximately $7,000. In addition, the Partnership received approximately $2,000 for lost rents associated with the casualty event, which is included in rental income.
Total expenses increased for the year ended December 31, 2008 due to increases in depreciation, interest and property tax expenses partially offset by decreases in operating and general and administrative expenses. Depreciation expense increased primarily due to assets being placed into service at all of the Partnership’s investment properties but primarily at Sienna Bay and Cedar Rim Apartments due to the completion of redevelopment projects. Interest expense increased due to an increase in advances from AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the General Partner, the addition of a second mortgage at Lamplighter Park Apartments during 2007, and a decrease in capitalized interest at Cedar Rim Apartments related to the redevelopment project, partially offset by principal payments on the mortgages encumbering the Partnership’s investment properties, which lowered the carrying balance of the mortgages. Property tax expense increased primarily due to an increase in the tax rate and assessed value of Sienna Bay Apartments, a decrease in capitalized taxes at Cedar Rim Apartments along with an increase in the assessed value of Cedar Rim Apartments and a successful tax appeal at Tamarac Village Apartments during the prior year related to previous year’s taxes, partially offset by a decrease in the assessed value and tax rate at Williamsburg Manor Apartments. Operating expense decreased primarily due to a decrease in maintenance expense partially offset by increases in advertising, insurance and management fee expenses. Maintenance expense decreased primarily due to a decrease in expenses at Lamplighter Park Apartments associated with minor casualties which occurred in 2007, partially offset by an increase in costs associated with mold abatement at Cedar Rim Apartments. Advertising expense increased primarily due to an increase in advertising and promotion costs at Cedar Rim Apartments. Insurance expense increased due to increased premiums at Sienna Bay Apartments due to its completed redevelopment. Management fees increased at all properties due to an increase in revenues upon which the fee is based.
General and administrative expense decreased for the year ended December 31, 2008 due to a decrease in management reimbursements to the General Partner as a result of the sale of properties. Included in general and administrative expenses for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 are management reimbursements to the General Partner as allowed under the Partnership Agreement. Also included in general and administrative expenses for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 are costs associated with the quarterly and annual communications with investors and regulatory agencies and the annual audit required by the Partnership Agreement.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At December 31, 2008, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $367,000 compared to approximately $224,000 at December 31, 2007. The increase in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $143,000 is due to approximately $4,050,000 and $2,331,000 of cash provided by investing and operating activities, respectively, partially offset by approximately $6,238,000 of cash used in financing activities. Cash provided by investing activities consisted of proceeds from the sale of Park Capitol Apartments and insurance proceeds received partially offset by property improvements and replacements. Cash used in financing activities consisted of repayments of advances from an affiliate of the General Partner, the repayment of the debt encumbering Park Capitol Apartments, monthly payments on mortgage notes and payment of a prepayment penalty related to Park Capitol Apartments partially offset by the receipt of advances from an affiliate of the General Partner. The Partnership invests its working capital reserves in interest bearing accounts.
During the year ended December 31, 2008, AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the General Partner advanced the Partnership approximately $1,970,000 to cover expenses related to operations at each of the Partnership’s properties and approximately $4,416,000 to cover redevelopment costs at Cedar Rim Apartments. During the year ended December 31, 2007, AIMCO Properties, L.P., advanced the Partnership approximately $3,408,000 to cover expenses related to operations at each of the Partnership’s properties and approximately $7,546,000 to cover redevelopment costs at Sienna Bay Apartments and Cedar Rim Apartments and property improvements at Park Capitol Apartments, Williamsburg Manor Apartments and Lamplighter Park Apartments. AIMCO Properties, L.P. charges interest on advances under the terms permitted by the Partnership Agreements. The interest rates charged on the outstanding advances made to the Partnership range from the prime rate to a variable rate based on the prime rate plus a market rate adjustment for similar type loans. Affiliates of the General Partner review the market rate adjustment quarterly. The interest rates on outstanding advances at December 31, 2008 ranged from 4.69% to 10.69%. Interest expense on outstanding advance balances was approximately $945,000 and $660,000 for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Partnership repaid AIMCO Properties, L.P. approximately $6,431,000 which included approximately $205,000 of accrued interest, with proceeds from the sale of Park Capitol Apartments. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Partnership repaid AIMCO Properties, L.P., approximately $3,904,000 which included approximately $425,000 of accrued interest, primarily with proceeds from the sale of Hidden Cove by the Lake Apartments. Total advances and accrued interest of approximately $11,826,000 and $10,926,000 remain unpaid and are owed to AIMCO Properties, L.P. at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and are included in due to affiliates. The Partnership may receive additional advances of funds from AIMCO Properties, L.P. although AIMCO Properties, L.P. is not obligated to provide such advances. For more information on AIMCO Properties, L.P., including copies of its audited balance sheet, please see its reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
On August 31, 2007, the Partnership obtained a second mortgage in the principal amount of $4,200,000 on Lamplighter Park Apartments. The second mortgage bears interest at a fixed interest rate of 5.93% per annum and requires monthly payments of principal and interest of approximately $25,000 beginning October 1, 2007 through the July 1, 2019 maturity date. The second mortgage has a balloon payment of approximately $3,339,000 due at maturity. If no event of default exists at maturity, the maturity date will automatically be extended for one additional year to July 1, 2020, during which period the second mortgage would bear interest at the one-month LIBOR rate plus 250 basis points and would require monthly payments of principal and interest. The Partnership may prepay the second mortgage at any time with 30 days written notice to the lender subject to a prepayment penalty. As a condition of the loan, the lender required AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the Partnership, to guarantee certain non-recourse obligations and liabilities of the Partnership with respect to the new mortgage financing. In connection with the new loan, loan costs of approximately $107,000 were capitalized and are included in other assets.
In connection with the second mortgage loan, the Partnership also agreed to certain modifications on the existing mortgage loan encumbering Lamplighter Park Apartments. The modification includes an interest rate of 7.48% per annum and monthly payments of principal and interest of approximately $46,000, commencing October 1, 2007, through the maturity date of July 1, 2021, at which time a balloon payment of approximately $5,224,000 is due. The previous terms were an interest rate of 7.48% per annum and monthly payments of principal and interest of approximately $64,000 through the maturity date of July 1, 2021, at which date the mortgage was scheduled to be fully amortized. The Partnership may prepay the first mortgage loan at any time subject to a prepayment penalty. As a condition of the loan, the lender required AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the Partnership, to guarantee certain non-recourse obligations and liabilities of the Partnership with respect to the modified loan.
The Partnership's assets are thought to be generally sufficient for near-term needs (exclusive of capital improvements and repayment of amounts owed to affiliates) of the Partnership. The mortgage indebtedness encumbering the Partnership's properties of approximately $46,860,000 has maturity dates ranging from September 2012 to August 2021. The mortgage indebtedness encumbering Tamarac Village Apartments and Cedar Rim Apartments of approximately $20,428,000 requires monthly payments until the loans mature between July 2021 and August 2021, respectively, at which time the loans are scheduled to be fully amortized. The mortgage indebtedness encumbering Lamplighter Park Apartments, Williamsburg Manor Apartments and Sienna Bay Apartments of approximately $26,432,000 requires monthly payments until the loans mature between September 2012 and July 2021 and have balloon payments totaling approximately $23,257,000 due at maturity. The General Partner will attempt to refinance such indebtedness and/or sell the properties prior to such maturity dates. If the investment properties cannot be refinanced or sold for a sufficient amount, the Partnership may risk losing such properties through foreclosure.
The sufficiency of existing liquid assets to meet future liquidity and capital expenditure requirements is directly related to the level of capital expenditures required at the properties to adequately maintain the physical assets and other operating needs of the Partnership and to comply with Federal, state, and local legal and regulatory requirements. The General Partner monitors developments in the area of legal and regulatory compliance. The Partnership regularly evaluates the capital improvement needs of its properties. While the Partnership has no material commitments for property improvements and replacements, certain routine capital expenditures are anticipated during 2009. Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the properties as well as anticipated cash flow generated by the properties. Capital expenditures will be incurred only if cash is available from operations, Partnership reserves or advances from AIMCO Properties, L.P., although AIMCO Properties, L.P. is not obligated to fund such advances. To the extent that capital improvements are completed, the Partnership's distributable cash flow, if any, may be adversely affected at least in the short term.
The Partnership made no distributions during the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007. Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of cash generated from operations, and the timing of debt maturities, property sales and/or refinancings. The Partnership's cash available for distribution is reviewed on a monthly basis. In light of the amounts accrued and payable to affiliates of the General Partner at December 31, 2008, it is unlikely that the Partnership will generate sufficient funds from operations, after planned capital expenditures and repayment of amounts accrued and payable to affiliates, to permit any distributions to its partners for the foreseeable future.
In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partner interest in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 239,212 Units in the Partnership representing 62.46% of the outstanding Units at December 31, 2008. A number of these Units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. It is possible that AIMCO or its affiliates will acquire additional Units in exchange for cash or a combination of cash and units in AIMCO Properties, L.P., the operating partnership of AIMCO, either through private purchases or tender offers. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, unitholders holding a majority of the Units are entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters that include, but are not limited to, voting on certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting to remove the General Partner. As a result of its ownership of 62.46% of the outstanding Units, AIMCO and its affiliates are in a position to control all such voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. Although the General Partner owes fiduciary duties to the limited partners of the Partnership, the General Partner also owes fiduciary duties to AIMCO as its sole stockholder. As a result, the duties of the General Partner, as general partner, to the Partnership and its limited partners may come into conflict with the duties of the General Partner to AIMCO as its sole stockholder.

The Partners
Consolidated Capital Institutional Properties/3, LP
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Consolidated Capital Institutional Properties/3, LP as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related statements of operations, changes in partners' deficit, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 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 conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Consolidated Capital Institutional Properties/3, LP as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2008, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2008
Note A - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization: Consolidated Capital Institutional Properties/3, a California limited partnership, was formed on May 23, 1984, to lend funds through non-recourse notes with participation interests (the "Master Loan"). The loans were made to, and the real properties that secure the Master Loan were purchased and owned by, ConCap Equity Partners/3, ConCap Equity Partners/4, and ConCap Equity Partners/5, ("EP/3", "EP/4", and "EP/5", respectively), California limited partnerships, in which certain of the partners were former shareholders and former management of Consolidated Capital Equities Corporation ("CCEC"). The Partnership entered into a Master Loan Agreement with EP/3, EP/4, and EP/5, pursuant to which the aggregate principal would not exceed the net amount raised by the Partnership's offering of approximately $96,000,000. Through a series of transactions, the Partnership has acquired all of EP/3, EP/4 and EP/5's properties in full settlement of their liability under the Master Loan.
Upon the Partnership's formation in 1984, CCEC, a Colorado corporation, was the corporate general partner. In December 1988, CCEC filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code ("Chapter 11"). In 1990, as part of CCEC's reorganization plan, ConCap Equities, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "General Partner" or "CEI") acquired CCEC's general partner interests in the Partnership and in 15 other affiliated public limited partnerships and replaced CCEC as managing general partner in all 16 partnerships. The General Partner is an affiliate of Apartment Investment and Management Company ("AIMCO"), a publicly traded real estate investment trust. The Partnership Agreement provides that the Partnership is to terminate on December 31, 2015 unless terminated prior to such date.
On October 2, 2008, the Partnership changed its domicile from California to Delaware by merging with and into Consolidated Capital Institutional Properties/3, LP, a Delaware limited partnership, with the Delaware partnership as the surviving entity in the merger. The merger was undertaken pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 29, 2008, by and between the California partnership and the Delaware partnership.
Under the merger agreement, each unit of limited partnership interest in the California partnership was converted into an identical unit of limited partnership interest in the Delaware partnership and the general partnership interest in the California partnership previously held by the general partner was converted into a general partnership interest in the Delaware partnership. All interests in the Delaware partnership outstanding immediately prior to the merger were cancelled in the merger.
The voting and other rights of the limited partners provided for in the partnership agreement were not changed as a result of the merger. In the merger, the partnership agreement of the California partnership was adopted as the partnership agreement of the Delaware partnership, with the following changes: (i) references therein to the California Uniform Limited Partnership Act were amended to refer to the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act; (ii) a description of the merger was added; (iii) the name of the partnership was changed to “Consolidated Capital Institutional Properties/3, LP” and (iv) a provision was added that gives the general partner authority to establish different designated series of limited partnership interests that have separate rights with respect to specified partnership property, and profits and losses associated with such specified property.
The Partnership operates five apartment properties as of December 31, 2008, located throughout the United States.
Basis of Presentation: In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, the accompanying statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2007 has been restated as of January 1, 2007 to reflect the operations of Park Capitol Apartments as loss from discontinued operations due to its sale on June 6, 2008. The accompanying statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2007 also includes the operations of Hidden Cove by the Lake Apartments as discontinued operations as a result of the sale of the property on August 16, 2007. In addition, the balance sheet as of December 31, 2007 has been restated to reflect the respective assets and liabilities of Park Capitol Apartments as held for sale due to its sale in June 2008. See “Note G - Sale of Investment Properties” for further information related to the sales.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2007 balances to conform to the 2008 presentation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and in banks. At certain times, the amount of cash deposited at a bank may exceed the limit on insured deposits. Cash balances include approximately $80,000 and $87,000 at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, that are maintained by an affiliated management company on behalf of affiliated entities in cash concentration accounts.
Tenant Security Deposits: The Partnership requires security deposits from lessees for the duration of the lease, and such deposits are included in receivables and deposits. The security deposits are refunded when the tenant vacates, provided the tenant has not damaged the space and is current on rental payments.
Investment Properties: Investment properties consist of five apartment complexes and are stated at cost. The Partnership capitalizes costs incurred in connection with capital expenditure activities, including redevelopment and construction projects, other tangible property improvements and replacements of existing property components. Costs including interest, property taxes and operating costs associated with redevelopment and construction projects are capitalized during periods in which redevelopment and construction projects are in progress in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 34, “Capitalization of Interest Costs” and SFAS No. 67, “Accounting for Costs and the Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Properties.” Costs incurred in connection with capital projects are capitalized where the costs of the project exceed $250. Included in these capitalized costs are payroll costs associated with time spent by site employees in connection with the planning, execution and control of all capital expenditure activities at the property level. The Partnership capitalizes interest, property taxes and operating costs during periods in which redevelopment and construction projects are in progress. During the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Partnership capitalized interest of approximately $141,000 and $617,000, property taxes of approximately $8,000 and $94,000, and operating costs of approximately $19,000 and $56,000. Capitalized costs are depreciated over the useful life of the asset. Expenditures for ordinary repairs, maintenance and apartment turnover costs are expensed as incurred.
In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, the Partnership records impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when events and circumstances indicate the assets might be impaired and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying amounts of those assets. No adjustments for impairment of value were necessary for the years ending December 31, 2008 and 2007.
Abandoned Units: During 2008 and 2007, the number of limited partnership units decreased by 4 and 7 units, respectively, due to limited partners abandoning their units. In abandoning his or her partnership units, a limited partner relinquishes all right, title and interest in the Partnership as of the date of the abandonment.
Depreciation: Depreciation is provided by the straight-line method over the estimated lives of the apartment properties and related personal property. For Federal income tax purposes, the modified accelerated cost recovery method is used for depreciation of (1) real property over 27 ½ years and (2) personal property additions over 5 years.
Leases: The Partnership generally leases apartment units for twelve-month terms or less. The Partnership will offer rental concessions during particularly slow months or in response to heavy competition from other similar complexes in the area. Rental income attributable to leases, net of any concessions, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The Partnership evaluates all accounts receivable from residents and establishes an allowance, after the application of security deposits, for accounts greater than 30 days past due on current tenants and all receivables due from former tenants.
Deferred Costs: At December 31, 2008 and 2007, loan costs of approximately $1,294,000, less accumulated amortization of approximately $611,000 and $513,000 at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, are included in other assets. Loan costs of approximately $94,000, less accumulated amortization of approximately $21,000, are included in assets held for sale at December 31, 2007. The loan costs are amortized over the terms of the related loan agreements. Amortization expense was approximately $103,000 and $111,000 for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and is included in interest expense and loss from discontinued operations. Amortization expense is expected to be approximately $95,000 for 2009, $93,000 for 2010, $90,000 for 2011, $78,000 for 2012 and $57,000 for 2013.
Leasing commissions and other direct costs incurred in connection with successful leasing efforts are deferred and amortized over the terms of the related leases. Amortization of these costs is included in operating expenses and loss from discontinued operations.
Allocation of Net Income and Net Loss: The Partnership Agreement provides for net income and net losses for both financial and tax reporting purposes to be allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments: SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments", as amended by SFAS No. 119, "Disclosures about Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments", requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. Fair value is defined in the SFAS as the amount at which the instruments could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The Partnership believes that the carrying amounts of its financial instruments (except for long term debt) approximate their fair values due to the short term maturity of these instruments. The Partnership estimates the fair value of its long term debt by discounting future cash flows using a discount rate commensurate with that currently believed to be available to the Partnership for similar term long-term debt. The fair value of the Partnership's long term debt at the Partnership's incremental borrowing rate is approximately $48,200,000.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Segment Reporting: SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" established standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports. SFAS No. 131 also established standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. As defined in SFAS No. 131, the Partnership has only one reportable segment.
Advertising: The Partnership expenses the costs of advertising as incurred. Advertising expenses of approximately $348,000 and $345,000 for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, were charged to operating expense and loss from discontinued operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement: In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. SFAS No. 157 applies whenever other standards require assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value and does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. SFAS No. 157 establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the information used in developing fair value estimates. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data, such as the reporting entity’s own data. SFAS No. 157 requires fair value measurements to be disclosed by level within the fair value hierarchy. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157”, which deferred the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for all nonrecurring fair value measurements of non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The provisions of SFAS No. 157 are applicable to recurring fair value measurements of financial assets and liabilities for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, which for the Partnership is generally limited to annual disclosures required by SFAS No. 107. The Partnership adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 157 effective January 1, 2008, and at that time determined no transition adjustment was required.
Note B - Transactions with Affiliated Parties
The Partnership has no employees and depends on the General Partner and its affiliates for the management and administration of all Partnership activities. The Partnership Agreement provides for (i) certain payments to affiliates for services and (ii) reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by affiliates on behalf of the Partnership.
Affiliates of the General Partner receive 5% of gross receipts from all of the Partnership's properties as compensation for providing property management services. The Partnership was charged by such affiliates approximately $696,000 and $689,000 for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, which is included in operating expense and loss from discontinued operations. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, approximately $8,000 and $6,000, respectively, of these fees are payable to affiliates and are included in due to affiliates.
Affiliates of the General Partner charged the Partnership reimbursement of accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately $902,000 and $1,109,000 for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expenses, investment properties, assets held for sale, and gain on sale of discontinued operations. The portion of these reimbursements included in investment properties, assets held for sale, and gain on sale of discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 are redevelopment and construction management services provided by an affiliate of the General Partner of approximately $504,000 and $702,000, respectively. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, approximately $198,000 and $92,000, respectively, of these reimbursements are payable to affiliates of the General Partner and are included in due to affiliates.
During the year ended December 31, 2008, AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the General Partner advanced the Partnership approximately $1,970,000 to cover expenses related to operations at each of the Partnership’s properties and approximately $4,416,000 to cover redevelopment costs at Cedar Rim Apartments. During the year ended December 31, 2007, AIMCO Properties, L.P., advanced the Partnership approximately $3,408,000 to cover expenses related to operations at each of the Partnership’s properties and approximately $7,546,000 to cover redevelopment costs at Sienna Bay Apartments and Cedar Rim Apartments and property improvements at Park Capitol Apartments, Williamsburg Manor Apartments and Lamplighter Park Apartments. AIMCO Properties, L.P. charges interest on advances under the terms permitted by the Partnership Agreements. The interest rates charged on the outstanding advances made to the Partnership range from the prime rate to a variable rate based on the prime rate plus a market rate adjustment for similar type loans. Affiliates of the General Partner review the market rate adjustment quarterly. The interest rates on outstanding advances at December 31, 2008 ranged from 4.69% to 10.69%. Interest expense on outstanding advance balances was approximately $945,000 and $660,000 for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Partnership repaid AIMCO Properties, L.P. approximately $6,431,000 which included approximately $205,000 of accrued interest, with proceeds from the sale of Park Capitol Apartments. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Partnership repaid AIMCO Properties, L.P., approximately $3,904,000 which included approximately $425,000 of accrued interest, primarily with proceeds from the sale of Hidden Cove by the Lake Apartments. Total advances and accrued interest of approximately $11,826,000 and $10,926,000 remain unpaid and are owed to AIMCO Properties, L.P. at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and are included in due to affiliates. The Partnership may receive additional advances of funds from AIMCO Properties, L.P. although AIMCO Properties, L.P. is not obligated to provide such advances. For more information on AIMCO Properties, L.P., including copies of its audited balance sheet, please see its reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
In connection with the addition of a second mortgage on Lamplighter Park Apartments in August 2007, the General Partner was entitled to a fee of 1% of the new debt obtained. Accordingly, approximately $42,000 was paid during the year ended December 31, 2007 (see “Note C - Mortgage Notes Payable”).
The Partnership insures its properties up to certain limits through coverage provided by AIMCO which is generally self-insured for a portion of losses and liabilities related to workers compensation, property casualty, general liability and vehicle liability. The Partnership insures its properties above the AIMCO limits through insurance policies obtained by AIMCO from insurers unaffiliated with the General Partner. During the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $291,000 and $359,000, respectively, for insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration.
In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partner interest in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 239,212 the Units in the Partnership representing 62.46% of the outstanding Units at December 31, 2008. A number of these Units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. It is possible that AIMCO or its affiliates will acquire additional Units in exchange for cash or a combination of cash and units in AIMCO Properties, L.P., the operating partnership of AIMCO, either through private purchases or tender offers. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, unitholders holding a majority of the Units are entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters that include, but are not limited to, voting on certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting to remove the General Partner. As a result of its ownership of 62.46% of the outstanding Units, AIMCO and its affiliates are in a position to control all such voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. Although the General Partner owes fiduciary duties to the limited partners of the Partnership, the General Partner also owes fiduciary duties to AIMCO as its sole stockholder. As a result, the duties of the General Partner, as general partner, to the Partnership and its limited partners may come into conflict with the duties of the General Partner to AIMCO as its sole stockholder.
Note C - Mortgage Notes Payable
The terms of the mortgage notes payable are as follows:
On August 31, 2007, the Partnership obtained a second mortgage in the principal amount of $4,200,000 on Lamplighter Park Apartments. The second mortgage bears interest at a fixed interest rate of 5.93% per annum and requires monthly payments of principal and interest of approximately $25,000 beginning October 1, 2007 through the July 1, 2019 maturity date. The second mortgage has a balloon payment of approximately $3,339,000 due at maturity. If no event of default exists at maturity, the maturity date will automatically be extended for one additional year to July 1, 2020, during which period the second mortgage would bear interest at the one-month LIBOR rate plus 250 basis points and would require monthly payments of principal and interest. The Partnership may prepay the second mortgage at any time with 30 days written notice to the lender subject to a prepayment penalty. As a condition of the loan, the lender required AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the Partnership, to guarantee certain non-recourse obligations and liabilities of the Partnership with respect to the new mortgage financing. In connection with the new loan, loans costs of approximately $107,000 were capitalized and are included in other assets.
In connection with the second mortgage loan, the Partnership also agreed to certain modifications on the existing mortgage loan encumbering Lamplighter Park Apartments. The modification includes an interest rate of 7.48% per annum and monthly payments of principal and interest of approximately $46,000, commencing October 1, 2007, through the maturity date of July 1, 2021, at which time a balloon payment of approximately $5,224,000 is due. The previous terms were an interest rate of 7.48% per annum and monthly payments of principal and interest of approximately $64,000 through the maturity date of July 1, 2021, at which date the mortgage was scheduled to be fully amortized. The Partnership may prepay the first mortgage loan at any time subject to a prepayment penalty. As a condition of the loan, the lender required AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the Partnership, to guarantee certain non-recourse obligations and liabilities of the Partnership with respect to the modified loan.
The mortgage notes payable are fixed rate mortgages that are non-recourse and are secured by a pledge of the Partnership’s rental properties and by a pledge of revenues from the respective rental properties. The mortgage notes payable include prepayment penalties if repaid prior to maturity. Further, the properties may not be sold subject to existing indebtedness.

During January 2007, one of the Partnership’s investment properties, Tamarac Village Apartments, sustained damage from a pipe break of approximately $27,000. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Partnership received approximately $17,000 in insurance proceeds and recognized a casualty gain of approximately $11,000 as a result of the write off of undepreciated damaged assets of approximately $6,000.

Note H - Redevelopment
During 2005, the Partnership began a major redevelopment project at Sienna Bay Apartments in order to become more competitive with other properties in the area in an effort to increase occupancy at the property. As of December 31, 2008 the redevelopment was complete. The total cost of the redevelopment was approximately $6,780,000, of which approximately $5,000 was completed during the year ended December 31, 2008.
During 2006, the Partnership began a major redevelopment project at Cedar Rim Apartments in order to become more competitive with other properties in the area in an effort to increase occupancy at the property. The redevelopment was completed as of December 31, 2008 at a total cost of approximately $14,428,000, of which approximately $10,881,000 was completed during the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 and an additional $3,547,000 was completed during the year ended December 31, 2008. The redevelopment consisted of site, building exterior, common area and unit interior improvements.

Note I - Contingencies
As previously disclosed, AIMCO Properties, L.P. and NHP Management Company, both affiliates of the General Partner, were defendants in a lawsuit, filed as a collective action in August 2003 in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, alleging that they willfully violated the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”) by failing to pay maintenance workers overtime for time worked in excess of 40 hours per week (“overtime claims”). The plaintiffs also contended that AIMCO Properties, L.P. and NHP Management Company failed to compensate maintenance workers for time that they were required to be "on-call" (“on-call claims”). In March 2007, the court in the District of Columbia decertified the collective action. In July 2007, plaintiffs’ counsel filed individual cases in Federal court in 22 jurisdictions. In the second quarter of 2008, AIMCO Properties, L.P. settled the overtime cases involving 652 plaintiffs and established a framework for resolving the 88 remaining “on-call” claims and the attorneys’ fees claimed by plaintiffs’ counsel. As a result, the lawsuits asserted in the 22 Federal courts will be dismissed. During the fourth quarter of 2008, the Partnership paid approximately $4,800 for settlement amounts for alleged unpaid overtime to employees who had worked at the Partnership’s investment properties. At this time, the 88 remaining “on-call” claims and the attorneys’ fees claimed by plaintiffs’ counsel are not resolved. The General Partner is uncertain as to the amount of any additional loss that may be allocable to the Partnership. Therefore, the Partnership cannot estimate whether any additional loss will occur or a potential range of loss.
The Partnership is unaware of any other pending or outstanding litigation matters involving it or its investment properties that are not of a routine nature arising in the ordinary course of business.
Environmental
Various Federal, state and local laws subject property owners or operators to liability for management, and the costs of removal or remediation, of certain hazardous substances present on a property, including lead-based paint. Such laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the release or presence of the hazardous substances. The presence of, or the failure to manage or remedy properly, hazardous substances may adversely affect occupancy at affected apartment communities and the ability to sell or finance affected properties. In addition to the costs associated with investigation and remediation actions brought by government agencies, and potential fines or penalties imposed by such agencies in connection therewith, the presence of hazardous substances on a property could result in claims by private plaintiffs for personal injury, disease, disability or other infirmities. Various laws also impose liability for the cost of removal, remediation or disposal of hazardous substances through a licensed disposal or treatment facility. Anyone who arranges for the disposal or treatment of hazardous substances is potentially liable under such laws. These laws often impose liability whether or not the person arranging for the disposal ever owned or operated the disposal facility. In connection with the ownership, operation and management of its properties, the Partnership could potentially be liable for environmental liabilities or costs associated with its properties.
Mold
The Partnership is aware of lawsuits against owners and managers of multifamily properties asserting claims of personal injury and property damage caused by the presence of mold, some of which have resulted in substantial monetary judgments or settlements. The Partnership has only limited insurance coverage for property damage loss claims arising from the presence of mold and for personal injury claims related to mold exposure. Affiliates of the General Partner have implemented policies, procedures, third-party audits and training and the General Partner believes that these measures will prevent or eliminate mold exposure and will minimize the effects that mold may have on residents. To date, the Partnership has not incurred any material costs or liabilities relating to claims of mold exposure. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Partnership incurred approximately $206,000 related to mold abatement conditions that occurred at Cedar Rim Apartments and an additional $88,000 during the year ended December 31, 2008. The mold abatement is a direct result of extremely wet and rainy weather conditions which occurred during the redevelopment work to several buildings which required exterior walls and windows to be removed prior to replacement. Because the law regarding mold is unsettled and subject to change the General Partner can make no assurance that liabilities resulting from the presence of or exposure to mold will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership’s financial condition or results of operations.

Item 9A(T). Controls and Procedures
(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Partnership’s management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the General Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the General Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The Partnership’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the principal executive and principal financial officers of the General Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, and effected by the Partnership’s management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
· pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of assets;
· provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Partnership’s management; and
· provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
The Partnership’s management assessed the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008. In making this assessment, the Partnership’s management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.
Based on their assessment, the Partnership’s management concluded that, as of December 31, 2008, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting is effective.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Partnership’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to the attestation by the Partnership’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Partnership to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fourth quarter of 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.

The Partnership Agreement provides for (i) certain payments to affiliates for services and (ii) reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by affiliates on behalf of the Partnership.
Affiliates of the General Partner receive 5% of gross receipts from all of the Partnership's properties as compensation for providing property management services. The Partnership was charged by such affiliates approximately $696,000 and $689,000 for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, which is included in operating expense and loss from discontinued operations. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, approximately $8,000 and $6,000, respectively, of these fees are payable to affiliates and are included in due to affiliates.
Affiliates of the General Partner charged the Partnership reimbursement of accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately $902,000 and $1,109,000 for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expenses, investment properties, assets held for sale and gain on sale of discontinued operations. The portion of these reimbursements included in investment properties, assets held for sale and gain on sale of discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 are redevelopment and construction management services provided by an affiliate of the General Partner of approximately $504,000 and $702,000, respectively. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, approximately $198,000 and $92,000, respectively, of these reimbursements are payable to affiliates of the General Partner and are included in due to affiliates.
During the year ended December 31, 2008, AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the General Partner advanced the Partnership approximately $1,970,000 to cover expenses related to operations at each of the Partnership’s properties and approximately $4,416,000 to cover redevelopment costs at Cedar Rim Apartments. During the year ended December 31, 2007, AIMCO Properties, L.P., advanced the Partnership approximately $3,408,000 to cover expenses related to operations at each of the Partnership’s properties and approximately $7,546,000 to cover redevelopment costs at Sienna Bay Apartments and Cedar Rim Apartments and property improvements at Park Capitol Apartments, Williamsburg Manor Apartments and Lamplighter Park Apartments. AIMCO Properties, L.P. charges interest on advances under the terms permitted by the Partnership Agreements. The interest rates charged on the outstanding advances made to the Partnership range from the prime rate to a variable rate based on the prime rate plus a market rate adjustment for similar type loans. Affiliates of the General Partner review the market rate adjustment quarterly. The interest rates on outstanding advances at December 31, 2008 ranged from 4.69% to 10.69%. Interest expense on outstanding advance balances was approximately $945,000 and $660,000 for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Partnership repaid AIMCO Properties, L.P. approximately $6,431,000 which included approximately $205,000 of accrued interest, with proceeds from the sale of Park Capitol Apartments. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Partnership repaid AIMCO Properties, L.P., approximately $3,904,000 which included approximately $425,000 of accrued interest, primarily with proceeds from the sale of Hidden Cove by the Lake Apartments. Total advances and accrued interest of approximately $11,826,000 and $10,926,000 remain unpaid and are owed to AIMCO Properties, L.P. at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and are included in due to affiliates. The Partnership may receive additional advances of funds from AIMCO Properties, L.P. although AIMCO Properties, L.P. is not obligated to provide such advances. For more information on AIMCO Properties, L.P., including copies of its audited balance sheet, please see its reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
In connection with the addition of a second mortgage on Lamplighter Park Apartments in August 2007, the General Partner was entitled to a fee of 1% of the new debt obtained. Accordingly, approximately $42,000 was paid during the year ended December 31, 2007.
The Partnership insures its properties up to certain limits through coverage provided by AIMCO which is generally self-insured for a portion of losses and liabilities related to workers compensation, property casualty, general liability and vehicle liability. The Partnership insures its properties above the AIMCO limits through insurance policies obtained by AIMCO from insurers unaffiliated with the General Partner. During the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Partnership was charged by AIMCO and its affiliates approximately $291,000 and $359,000, respectively, for insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration.
In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partner interest in the Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 239,212 the Units in the Partnership representing 62.46% of the outstanding Units at December 31, 2008. A number of these Units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its affiliates. It is possible that AIMCO or its affiliates will acquire additional Units in exchange for cash or a combination of cash and units in AIMCO Properties, L.P., the operating partnership of AIMCO, either through private purchases or tender offers. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, unitholders holding a majority of the Units are entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters that include, but are not limited to, voting on certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting to remove the General Partner. As a result of its ownership of 62.46% of the outstanding Units, AIMCO and its affiliates are in a position to control all such voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. Although the General Partner owes fiduciary duties to the limited partners of the Partnership, the General Partner also owes fiduciary duties to AIMCO as its sole stockholder. As a result, the duties of the General Partner, as general partner, to the Partnership and its limited partners may come into conflict with the duties of the General Partner to AIMCO as its sole stockholder.
Neither of the General Partner's directors is independent under the independence standards established for New York Stock Exchange listed companies as both directors are employed by the parent of the General Partner.
