ITEM 1. BUSINESS
- ----------------

General

Wells Real Estate Fund IV, L.P. (the "Partnership") is a Georgia public limited
partnership, having Leo F. Wells, III and Wells Partners, L.P., a non-public
limited partnership, as General Partners. The Partnership was organized on
October 25, 1990, under the laws of the state of Georgia, for the purpose of
acquiring, developing, constructing, owning, operating, improving, leasing and
otherwise managing for investment purposes income-producing commercial or
industrial properties.

On March 4, 1991, the Partnership commenced an offering of up to $25,000,000 of
Class A or Class B limited partnership units ($10.00 per unit) pursuant to a
Registration Statement on Form S-11 under the Securities Act of 1933. The
Partnership did not commence active operations until it received and accepted
subscriptions for 125,000 units which occurred on May 13, 1991. The offering was
terminated on February 29, 1992, at which time the partnership had obtained
total contributions of $13,614,652 representing subscriptions from 1,285 Limited
Partners.

The Partnership owns interests in properties through its equity ownership in the
following two joint ventures: (i) Fund III and Fund IV Associates, a joint
venture between the Partnership and Wells Real Estate Fund III, L.P. ( the "Fund
III - Fund IV Joint Venture"); and (ii) Fund IV and Fund V Associates, a joint
venture between the Partnership and Wells Real Estate Fund V, L.P. (the
"Fund IV-Fund V Joint Venture").

As of December 31, 2000, the Partnership owned interests in the following
properties through its ownership of the foregoing joint ventures: (i) a retail
shopping center located in Stockbridge, Georgia, (the "Stockbridge Village
Shopping Center"), which is owned by the Fund III - Fund IV Joint Venture; (ii)
a two-story office building located in Richmond, Virginia (the "Reciprocal Group
Building, formerly known as the G.E. Building/Richmond"), which is owned by the
Fund III - Fund IV Joint Venture; (iii) two substantially identical two-story
office buildings located in Clayton County, Georgia (the "Village Overlook
Property"), which are owned by the Fund IV - Fund V Joint Venture, and (iv) a
four-story office building located in Jacksonville, Florida (the "IBM
Jacksonville Project"), which is owned by the Fund IV - Fund V Joint Venture.
All of the foregoing properties were acquired on an all cash basis and are
described in more detail in Item 2, below.

Employees

The Partnership has no direct employees. The employees of Wells Capital, Inc.,
the sole general partner of Wells Partners, L.P., a General Partner of the
Partnership, perform a full range of real estate services including leasing and
property management, accounting, asset management and investor relations for the
Partnership. See Item 11 - "Compensation of General Partners and Affiliates" for
a summary of the fees paid to the General Partners and their affiliates during
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000.

2


Insurance

Wells Management Company, Inc., an affiliate of the General Partners, carries
comprehensive liability and extended coverage with respect to all the properties
owned directly or indirectly by the Partnership. In the opinion of management of
the registrant, the properties are adequately insured.

Competition

The Partnership will experience competition for tenants from owners and managers
of competing projects which may include the General Partners and their
affiliates. As a result, the Partnership may be required to provide free rent,
reduced charges for tenant improvements and other inducements, all of which may
have an adverse impact on results of operations. At the time the Partnership
elects to dispose of its properties, the Partnership will also be in competition
with sellers of similar properties to locate suitable purchasers for its
properties.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.
- -------------------

The Partnership owns interest in four properties through its investment in joint
ventures of which three are office buildings and one is a retail building. The
Partnership does not have control over the operations of the joint ventures;
however, it does exercise significant influence. Accordingly, investment in
joint ventures is recorded on the equity method. As of December 31, 2000, these
properties were 79.15% occupied, as compared to 91.72% at December 31, 1999 and
97% at December 31, 1998.

The following table shows lease expirations during each of the next ten years
for all leases as of December 31, 2000, assuming no exercise of renewal options
or termination rights:

42.8% of equity interest in the Fund III-Fund IV Joint Venture which includes a
multi-tenant retail center and an office building. As of December 31, 2000, the

On April 4, 1991, the Fund III-Fund IV Joint Venture purchased 13.62 acres of
real property located in Clayton County, Georgia for the purchase price of
$3,057,729, including acquisition costs, for the purpose of developing,
constructing and operating a shopping center known as the Stockbridge Village
Shopping Center (the "Stockbridge Property"). The Stockbridge Property consists
of a multi-tenant shopping center containing approximately 112,891 square feet
of which approximately 64,097 square feet is occupied by the Kroger Company, a
retail grocery chain. This is the only tenant which occupies more than ten
percent of the rentable square feet. The lease with Kroger Company is for an
initial term of 20 years commencing November 14, 1991, with an option to extend
for four consecutive five year periods at the same rental rate as the original
lease. The annual base rent payable under the Kroger lease during the initial
term is $492,692. The remaining 48,794 square feet is comprised of 12 separate
retail spaces and 3 free-standing retail buildings. As of December 31, 2000, the
Partnership had contributed a total of $5,114,502 and Wells Fund III had
contributed a total of $4,574,247 to fund the total costs of approximately
$9,688,749 to fund the acquisition and development of the Stockbridge Property.

The occupancy rate at the year end for the Stockbridge Property was 100% in
2000, 95% in 1999 and 100% in 1998. The average effective annual rental per
square foot at the Stockbridge Property was $11.29 for 2000, $11.23 for 1999,
$10.82 for 1998 and $9.86 for 1997 and $9.59 for 1996.

Fund V"), a Georgia public limited partnership affiliated with the Partnership
through common general partners, entered into a joint venture agreement known as
Fund IV and Fund V Associates (the "Fund IV - Fund V Joint Venture"). The
investment objectives of Wells Fund V are substantially identical to those of
the Partnership. As of December 31, 2000, the Partnership had contributed
approximately $4,837,041 to the Fund IV - V Joint Venture, and Wells Fund V had
contributed approximately $8,032,509. The Partnership holds on approximate 38%

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
- --------------------------

There were no material pending legal proceedings or proceedings known to be
contemplated by governmental authorities involving the Partnership during 2000.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.
- ------------------------------------------------------------

No matters were submitted to a vote of the Limited Partners during the year of
2000.

PART II
-------

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR PARTNERSHIP'S UNITS AND RELATED SECURITY HOLDER MATTERS.
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

As of February 28, 2001, the Partnership had 1,322,909 outstanding Class A Units
held by a total of 1,273 Limited Partners and 38,551 outstanding Class B Units
held by a total of 20 Limited Partners. The capital contribution per unit is
$10.00. There is no established public trading market for the Partnership's
limited partnership units, and it is not anticipated that a public trading
market for the units will develop. Under the Partnership Agreement, the General
Partners have the right to prohibit transfers of units.

The General Partners have estimated the investment value of properties held by
the Partnership, as of December 31, 2000, to be $11.13 per Class A unit and
$16.24 per Class B unit based on market conditions existing in early December,
2000. The methodology used for this valuation was to estimate the amount a
holder of Partnership Units would receive if the Partnership's properties were
all sold in the ordinary course of business as of December 31, 2000, and the
proceeds from such sales (without reduction for selling expenses), together with
Partnership funds held as of such date, were distributed in a liquidation of the
Partnership. This value was confirmed as reasonable by an independent MAI
appraiser, David L. Beal Company, although no actual MAI appraisal was performed
due to the inordinate expense involved with such an undertaking. The valuation
does not include any fractional interest valuation.

Cash available for distribution to the Limited Partners is distributed on a
quarterly basis unless Limited Partners select to have their cash distributions
paid monthly. Under the Partnership Agreement, distributions are allocated first
to the Limited Partners holding Class A Units until they have received cash
distributions in each fiscal year of the Partnership equal to 10% of their
adjusted capital contribution. After this preference is satisfied, the General
Partners will receive an amount of Net Cash from Operations equal to one-tenth
of the total amount of Net Cash from Operations distributed. After, the Limited
Partners holding Class A Units will receive 90% of Net Cash from Operations, and
the General Partners will receive 10%. No Net Cash from Operations will be
distributed to Limited Partners holding Class B Units. Cash distributions made
to the Limited Partners holding Class A Units for the two most recent fiscal
years were as follows:

March 31, 1999 $261,712 $ 0.11 $ 0.09 $ 0.00 $ 0.00
June 30, 1999 $265,723 $ 0.14 $ 0.06 $ 0.00 $ 0.00

Dec. 31, 2000 $ 0 $ 0.00 $ 0.00 $ 0.00 $ 0.00


The cash distributions to Limited Partners holding Class A units were
substantially reduced in 2000 due to the vacancy at the Reciprocal Group
Building, previously known as the G.E. Building and the cost necessary to lease
up the property as previously discussed. Distributions have been reserved for
the 2nd, 3rd and 4th quarters of 2000 to fund these costs.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OF OPERATION.
- -------------

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
selected financial data and the accompanying financial statements of the
Partnership and notes thereto. This Report contains forward-looking statements,
within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including discussion and analysis of the
financial condition of the Partnership, anticipated capital expenditures
required to complete certain projects, amounts of cash distributions anticipated
to be distributed to Limited Partners in the future and certain other matters.
Readers of this Report should be aware that there are various factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statement
made in this Report, which include construction costs which may exceed
estimates, construction delays, lease-up risks, inability to obtain new tenants
upon the expiration of existing leases, and the potential need to fund tenant
improvements or other capital expenditures out of operating cash flow.

Results of Operations and Changes in Financial Conditions
- ---------------------------------------------------------

General
- -------

Gross revenues of the Partnerships were $428,694 for the year ended December 31,
2000, as compared to $684,024 for the year ended December 31, 1999 and $655,837
for the year ended December 31, 1998. The decrease in 2000, as compared to 1999
and 1998, was due primarily to decreased earnings from the joint ventures which
was a result of decreased occupancy at the Reciprocal Group Building, previously
known as the G.E. Building/Richmond, in 2000.

Expenses of the Partnership decreased slightly to $71,289 in 2000, as compared
to $75,312 in 1999 and $81,803 in 1998. The decrease in 2000, as compared to
1999, was due to slight fluctuations in all areas of administrative costs.

As a result, net income of the Partnership decreased to $357,405 for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2000, as compared to $608,712 for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1999 and $574,034 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998.

The Partnership made cash distributions to the Limited Partners holding Class A
Units of $.16 per Class A Unit for the year ended December 31, 2000, $.80 per
Class A Unit for the year ended December 31, 1999 and $.73 for the year ended
December 31, 1998. No cash distributions were made to the Limited Partners
holding Class B Units or to the General Partners for the fiscal years ended
December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998. The decrease in distributions for 2000 is the
result of distributions being reserved for the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quarters due to
the vacancy at the Reciprocal Building and the costs necessary to lease up the
property.

- -------------------

As of December 31, 2000, the Partnership's ownership interest in Fund III - Fund

Net income allocated to the

Rental income increased for the year ended December 31, 2000, as compared to
1999 and 1998, due to increased occupancy and increased rental renewal rates.
Other operating expenses increased due primarily to differences in adjustment
for prior year common area maintenance billings to tenants and increased
expenditures for depreciation and management and leasing expenses. Tenants are
billed an estimated amount for the current year common area maintenance which is
then reconciled the following year and the difference billed to the tenant.

Distributions were lower in 2000, as compared to 1999 due primarily to the
decreased net income and payments of tenant improvements of $47,000 in 2000.

Real estate taxes were $111,481 for 2000, $109,806 for 1999 and $110,891 for
1998.

11


The Partnership's ownership in the Fund III - Fund IV Joint Venture increased in
1999, as compared to 1998, due to additional fundings in 1999 by the
Partnership, which decreased the Partnership's ownership in the Fund III - Fund
IV Joint Venture.

For comments on the general competitive conditions to which the property may be

Rental income, net income and cash distributions generated from the Reciprocal
Group Building decreased for the year ended December 31, 2000, as compared to
the same periods in 1999, due primarily to G.E.'s lease expiration on March 31,
2000. Other operating expenses have increased due to the fact that G.E. no
longer reimburses for the buildings operating costs such as property taxes,
electricity and various other expenses. As of October 4, 2000, the entire
building has been leased to The Reciprocal Group for a term of eight years with
occupancy and rental income commencing in early February, 2001. At this time,
the cost for new tenant buildout and building maintenance is anticipated to be
approximately $1,270,000, of which the Partnership has funded $178,743.

Real estate taxes were $39,972 for 2000. In prior years, G.E. paid the real
estate taxes directly.

Rental income for the IBM Jacksonville Property decreased slightly in 2000, as
compared to 1999 and 1998, even though occupancy remained the same due to
holdover rent from 1998 received in 1999 from a tenant subleasing space from
IBM. Operating expenses increased in 2000, over 1999, due to substantial
increase in the areas of repairs and maintenance of the irrigation system, the
parking lot lighting and some common areas in the building during the second
quarter of 2000, but decreased in 1999, as compared to 1998 due primarily to
savings in various building operating expenses.

The Jacksonville Property incurred property taxes of $181,064 for 2000, $182,936
for 1999 and $188,333 for 1998.

Net income allocated to the Partnership decreased in 2000, as compared to 1999
and 1998 due primarily to increased repairs and maintenance costs. Cash
distributions decreased for 2000 as compared to 1999 and 1998. The Partnership's
ownership in the Fund IV-V Joint Venture increased in 2000, as compared to 1998,
due to additional fundings for tenant improvement to the Joint Venture.

Rental income for the Village Overlook Property increased in 2000, over 1999 and
1998 due to increased in the occupancy over 1999, but due to increased rental
rates over 1998. Occupancy increased to 78% in 2000, as compared to 62% in 1999,
but decreased from the 1998 high of 92%. All efforts are being made by the
Partnership to lease the remaining 7,782 square feet of vacant space. Operating
expenses increased in 2000 as compared to 1999 and 1998 due to a substantial
increase in repairs and maintenance costs associated with common floor space.
Net income increased in 2000, as compared to 1999, due primarily to the increase
in rental income.

Even though net income increased, cash distributions remained stable as compared
to 1999 due to capital improvements being funded from cash flow. The
Partnership's ownership interest increased due to the contribution of cash
fundings for tenant improvements. The Village Overlook Properties incurred
property taxes of $39,100 for 2000, $35,002 for 1999 and $36,862 for 1998.

Liquidity and Capital Reserves
- ------------------------------

During its offering, which terminated on February 29, 1992, the Partnership
raised a total $13,614,652 in capital through the sale of 1,361,465 units. No
additional units will be sold by the Partnership. From the original funds
raised, the Partnership had invested a total of $11,088,611 in properties, paid
$748,805 in acquisition and advisory fees, $1,767,236 in selling commission and
organization and offering expenses, and is maintaining a working capital reserve
of $10,000.

Since the Partnership is an investment partnership formed for the purpose of
acquiring, owning and operating income-producing real property and has invested
all of its funds available for investment, it is unlikely that the Partnership
will acquire interests in any additional properties, and the Partnership's
capital resources are anticipated to remain relatively stable over the holding
period of its investments.

The Partnership's net cash used in operating activities decreased to $64,803
from 2000 from $78,269 for 1999 and $69,592 for 1998. Net cash provided by
investing activities decreased to $743,211 in 2000 from $1,058,115 in 1999 and
$973,824 in 1998. The decrease was due primarily to decreased distributions from
joint ventures, due to the expiration of G.E.'s lease on March 31, 2000. Net
cash used in financing activities decreased to $471,383 in 2000, as compared to
$1,037,233 in 1999 and 1998 as distributions to limited partners decreased as
net income decreased, and the reserving of funds for the tenant improvements at
the Reciprocal Group Building. As a result, cash and cash equivalents increased
from $102,960 in 1998 and $45,573 in 1999 to $252,598 in 2000.

The Partnership's distributions paid for 2000 have been paid from net cash from
operations and from a return of capital. The Partnership anticipates that
distributions will likely continue to be paid on a quarterly basis from such
sources for the year 2001.

The Partnership is unaware of any additional demands, commitments, events or
capital expenditures other than tenant improvement costs at the Reciprocal Group
Building and that which is required fro the normal operations of its properties
that will result in the Partnership's liquidity increasing or decreasing in any
material way. The Partnership has reserved the second, third and fourth quarter
2000 distribution to fund theses costs. The Partnership's portion of these costs
are expected to be $543,560 of which $178,743 was funded as of December 31,
2000.

15


Inflation
- ---------

The real estate market has not been affected significantly by inflation in the
past three years due to the relatively low inflation rate. There are provisions
in the majority of tenant leases executed by the Partnership to protect the
Partnership from the impact of inflation. Most leases contain common area
maintenance charges, real estate tax and insurance reimbursements on a per
square foot basis, or in some cases, annual reimbursement of operating expenses
above a certain per square foot allowance. These provisions should reduce the
Partnership's exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting
from inflation. In addition, a number of the Partnership's leases are for terms
of less than five years which may permit the Partnership to replace existing
leases with new leases at higher base rental rates if the existing leases are
below market rate. There is no assurance, however, that the Partnership would be
able to replace existing leases with new leases at higher base rentals.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To Wells Real Estate Fund IV, L.P.:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of WELLS REAL ESTATE FUND IV,
L.P. (a Georgia public limited partnership) as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 and
the related statements of income, partners' capital, and cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 2000. 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 auditing standards generally accepted
in the 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Wells Real Estate Fund IV, L.P.
as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2000 in

Partnership has two classes of limited partnership interests, Class A and
Class B units. Limited partners may vote to, among other things, (a) amend
the partnership agreement, subject to certain limitations, (b) change the
business purpose or investment objectives of the Partnership, and (c)
remove a general partner. A majority vote on any of the above described
matters will bind the Partnership without the concurrence of the general
partners. Each limited partnership unit has equal voting rights, regardless
of class.

The Partnership was formed to acquire and operate commercial real
properties, including properties which are either to be developed,
currently under development or construction, newly constructed, or have
operating histories. The Partnership owns an interest in the following
properties through joint ventures between the Partnership and other Wells
Real Estate Funds: (i) the Stockbridge Village Shopping Center, a retail
shopping center located in Stockbridge, Georgia, southeast of Atlanta,
Georgia, (ii) the G.E. Lighting National Customer Center, a two-story
office building located in Richmond, Virginia, (iii) the Village Overlook
Project (formerly known as the "Medical Center Project"), two substantially
identical two-story office buildings located in Clayton County, Georgia,
and (iv) the Jacksonville IBM Building, a four-story office building
located in Jacksonville, Florida.

Use of Estimates and Factors Affecting the Partnership

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

The carrying values of real estate are based on management's current intent
to hold the real estate assets as long-term investments. The success of the
Partnership's future operations and the ability to realize the investment
in its assets will be dependent on the Partnership's ability to maintain
rental rates, occupancy, and an appropriate level of operating expenses in
future years. Management believes that the steps it is taking will enable
the Partnership to realize its investment in its assets.

Income Taxes

The Partnership is not subject to federal or state income taxes, and
therefore, none have been provided for in the accompanying financial
statements. The partners are required to include their respective shares of
profits and losses in their individual income tax returns.

F-7


Distributions of Net Cash From Operations

Cash available for distribution, as defined by the partnership agreement, is
distributed on a cumulative noncompounded basis to the limited partners
quarterly. In accordance with the partnership agreement, distributions are paid
first to limited partners holding Class A units until they have received a 10%
per annum return on their adjusted capital contributions, as defined. Cash
available for distribution is then paid to the general partners until they have
received an amount equal to 10% of distributions. Any remaining cash available
for distribution is split between the limited partners holding Class A units and
the general partners on a basis of 90% and 10%, respectively. No distributions
will be made to the limited partners holding Class B units.

Distribution of Sales Proceeds

Upon sales of properties, the net sales proceeds are distributed in the
following order:

. To limited partners on a per unit basis until each limited partner
has received 100% of their adjusted capital contribution, as
defined

. To limited partners holding Class B units on a per unit basis
until they receive an amount equal to the net cash available for
distribution received by the limited partners holding Class A
units

. To all limited partners on a per unit basis until they receive a
cumulative 10% per annum return on their adjusted capital
contribution, as defined

. To limited partners holding Class B units on a per unit basis
until they receive a cumulative 15% per annum return on their
adjusted capital contribution, as defined

. To all limited partners until they receive an amount equal to
their respective cumulative distributions, as defined

. To the general partners until they have received 100% of their
capital contributions, as defined

. Thereafter, 80% to the limited partners and 20% to the general
partners

Allocation of Net Income, Net Loss, and Gain on Sale

Net income is defined as net income recognized by the Partnership, excluding
deductions for depreciation and amortization. Net income, as defined, of the
Partnership will be allocated each year in the same proportions that net cash
from operations is distributed to the partners. To the extent the Partnership's
net income in any year exceeds net cash from operations, it will be allocated
99% to the limited partners holding Class A units and 1% to the general
partners.

Net loss, depreciation, and amortization deductions for each fiscal year will be
allocated as follows: (a) 99% to the limited partners holding Class B units and
1% to the general partners until their capital accounts are reduced to zero, (b)
then to any partner having a positive balance in his capital account in an
amount not to exceed such positive balance, and (c) thereafter to the general
partners.

Gain on the sale or exchange of the Partnership's properties will be allocated
generally in the same manner that the net proceeds from such sale are
distributed to partners after the following allocations are made, if applicable:
(a) allocations made pursuant to a qualified income offset provision in the
partnership agreement, (b) allocations to partners having negative capital
accounts until all negative capital accounts have been restored to zero, and (c)
allocations to Class B limited partners in amounts equal to deductions for
depreciation and amortization previously allocated to them with respect to the

F-8


specific Partnership property sold, but not in excess of the amount of gain on
sale recognized by the Partnership with respect to the sale of such property.

Investment in Joint Ventures

Basis of Presentation

The Partnership does not have control over the operations of the joint
ventures; however, it does exercise significant influence. Accordingly,
investment in joint ventures is recorded using the equity method of
accounting.

Real Estate Assets

Real estate assets held by the joint ventures are stated at cost less
accumulated depreciation. Major improvements and betterments are
capitalized when they extend the useful life of the related asset. All
ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

Management continually monitors events and changes in circumstances
which could indicate that carrying amounts of real estate assets may
not be recoverable. When events or changes in circumstances are present
which indicate that the carrying amounts of real estate assets may not
be recoverable, management assesses the recoverability of real estate
assets by determining whether the carrying value of such real estate
assets will be recovered through the future cash flows expected from
the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. Management has
determined that there has been no impairment in the carrying value of
real estate assets held by the joint ventures as of December 31, 2000.

Depreciation for buildings and improvements is calculated using the
straight-line method over 25 years.

Revenue Recognition

All leases on real estate assets held by the joint ventures are
classified as operating leases, and the related rental income is
recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective
leases.

Partners' Distributions and Allocations of Profit and Loss

Cash available for distribution and allocations of profit and loss to
the Partnership by the joint ventures are made in accordance with the
terms of the individual joint venture agreements. Generally, these
items are allocated in proportion to the partners' respective ownership
interests. Cash is paid from the joint ventures to the Partnership
quarterly.

Deferred Lease Acquisition Costs

Costs incurred to procure operating leases are capitalized and
amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related
leases.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Partnership considers all
highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or
less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include cash and short-term
investments. Short-term investments are stated at cost, which approximates fair
value, and consist of investments in money market accounts.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current
year financial statement presentation.

2. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Due from affiliates at December 31, 2000 and 1999 represents the
Partnership's share of cash to be distributed from its joint venture
investments for the fourth quarters of 2000 and 1999 as follows:

========= ========

The Partnership entered into a property management agreement with Wells
Management Company, Inc. ("Wells Management"), an affiliate of the general
partners. In consideration for supervising the management of the
Partnership's properties, the Partnership will generally pay Wells
Management management and leasing fees equal to (a) 3% of the gross
revenues for management and 3% of the gross revenues for leasing (aggregate
maximum of 6%), plus a separate fee for the one-time initial lease-up of
newly constructed properties in an amount not to exceed the fee customarily
charged in arm's-length transactions by others rendering similar services
in the same geographic area for similar properties or (b) in the case of
commercial properties, which are leased on a long-term net basis (ten or
more years), 1% of the gross revenues except for initial leasing fees equal
to 3% of the gross revenues over the first five years of the lease term.

The Partnership incurred management and leasing fees and lease acquisition
costs at the joint venture level of $173,471, $140,551, and $98,517 for the
years ended December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively, which were
paid to Wells Management.

Wells Capital, Inc. ("the "Company"), the general partner of Wells
Partners, performs certain administrative services for the Partnership,
such as accounting and other partnership administration, and incurs the
related expenses. Such expenses are allocated among the various Wells Real
Estate Funds based on time spent on each fund by individual administrative
personnel. In the opinion of management, such allocation is a reasonable
estimation of such expenses.

The general partners are also general partners of other Wells Real Estate
Funds. As such, there may exist conflicts of interest where the general
partners in the capacity as general partners of other Wells Real Estate
Funds may be in competition with the Partnership for tenants in similar
geographic markets.
