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

General

Wells Real Estate Fund V, 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 formed on October
25, 1990, for the purpose of acquiring, developing, owning, operating,
improving, leasing, and otherwise managing for investment purposes income
producing commercial or industrial properties.

On March 6, 1992, 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 filed under the Securities Act of 1933. The
Partnership did not commence active operations until it received and accepted
subscriptions for a minimum of 125,000 units on April 27, 1992. The offering
was terminated on March 3, 1993, at which time the Partnership had sold
1,520,967 Class A Units and 179,635 Class B Units representing $17,006,020 of
capital contributions by investors who were admitted to the Partnership as
Limited Partners.

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

As of December 31, 1998, the Partnership owned interests in the following
properties through its ownership of the foregoing joint ventures: (i) a four-
story office building located in Jacksonville, Florida ("IBM Jacksonville"),
which is owned by the Fund IV - Fund V Joint Venture; (ii) two substantially
identical two-story office buildings located in Clayton County, Georgia (the
"Medical Center Project"), which are owned by the Fund IV - Fund V Joint
Venture; (iii) a four-story office building located in metropolitan Hartford,
Connecticut (the "Hartford Building"), which is owned by the Fund V - Fund VI
Joint Venture; (iv) two retail buildings located in Clayton County, Georgia
("Stockbridge Village II"), which are owned by the Fund V - Fund VI Joint
Venture; and (v) a three-story office building located in Appleton, Wisconsin
(the "Marathon Building"), which is owned by the Fund V-VI-VII Joint Venture.
All of the foregoing properties were acquired on an all cash basis.

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

2


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, 1998.

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 five properties through its investment in joint
ventures of which four 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, 1998, these
properties were 94% occupied, as compared to 95% at December 31, 1997, 92% at
December 31, 1996.

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

contemplated by governmental authorities involving the Partnership during 1998.


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

No matters were submitted to a vote of the Limited Partners during the fourth
quarter of 1998.

8


PART II
-------

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

As of February 28, 1999, the Partnership had 1,559,021 outstanding Class A Units
held by a total of 1,597 Limited Partners and 141,581 outstanding Class B Units
held by a total of 76 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, 1998, to be $11.49 per Class A Unit and
$14.92 per Class B Unit based on market conditions existing in early December,
1998. 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. Therefore, 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:



Per Class A Unit
-------------------------
Distributions For Total Cash Investment Return of
Quarter Ended Distribution Income Capital
-------------------------------------------------------------


March 31, 1997 $262,966 $0.17 $0.00
June 30, 1997 $272,997 $0.17 $0.00
Sept. 30, 1997 $277,959 $0.18 $0.00
Dec. 31, 1997 $288,503 $0.08 $0.11
March 31, 1998 $289,025 $0.09 $0.10
June 30, 1998 $300,005 $0.14 $0.05
Sept. 30, 1998 $296,796 $0.08 $0.11
Dec. 31, 1998 $273,913 $0.09 $0.09


The fourth quarter distribution was accrued for accounting purposes in 1998, and
was not actually paid to the limited partners holding Class A units until
February 1999. Even though

9


there is no guarantee, the General Partners anticipate that cash distributions
to Limited Partners holding Class A units will continue in 1999 at a level at
least comparable with 1998 cash distributions on an annual basis.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA.
- ---------------------------------

The Partnership commenced the offering on March 6, 1992, but did not commence
active operations until it received and accepted subscriptions for a minimum of
125,000 units on April 27, 1992.

The following sets forth a summary of the selected financial data for the fiscal
years ended December 31, 1998, 1997, 1996, 1995 and 1994.

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

10


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 Partnership were $708,264 for the year ended December 31,
1998, as compared to $633,247 for the year ended December 31, 1997 and $590,839
for the year ended December 31, 1996. Interest income decreased from 1996 to
1997 and 1998 due to a greater amount of investor funds invested in interest
bearing accounts in 1996 than in 1997 and 1998. Gross revenues and net income
increased for the year 1998, as compared to 1997 and 1996, due primarily to
increased equity in income from the joint ventures.

Expenses of the Partnership increased to $86,158 for the year ended December 31,
1998 from $73,446 for the year ended December 31, 1997 and $85,189 for the year
ended December 31, 1996, due primarily to fluctuations in legal and accounting
costs and in partnership administration expenses.

The Partnership made cash distributions to the Limited Partners holding Class A
Units of $.75 per Class A Unit for the year ended December 31, 1998, $.71 per
Class A Unit for the year ended December 31, 1997 and $.65 per Class A Unit for
the year ended December 31, 1996. No cash distributions were made to the
Limited Partners holding Class B Units. Distributions accrued for the fourth
quarter of 1998 were paid in February, 1999.

In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed of", which is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. SFAS No. 121
establishes standards for determining when impairment losses on long-lived
assets have occurred and how impairment losses should be measured. The joint
ventures adopted SFAS No. 121, effective January 1, 1995. The impact of the
adoption of SFAS No. 121 was not material to the financial statements of the
joint ventures.

As of December 31, 1998, the Partnership's ownership interest in Fund IV-Fund V
Joint Venture was 62.4%, in Fund V-Fund VI Joint Venture 46.5% and in Fund V-VI-

Rental income decreased slightly in 1998 as compared to 1997 and 1996 due to
decreased occupancy. Expenses decreased in 1998 as compared to 1997 due
primarily to savings in various building operating expenses. Cash distributions
remained stable in 1998 as compared to 1997. Net income increased in 1998, as
compared to 1997 and 1996 levels, due primarily to savings in operating

Rental income increased in 1998 over 1997 and 1996 levels due to increased lease
up at the Medical Center Project but decreased in 1997, due to a prior year
straight line rent adjustment. Occupancy increased to 92% in 1998, as compared
to 81% (on both buildings) in 1997 and 67% 1996. Expenses remained stable in
1998, as compared to 1997, but decreased when compared to 1996. Depreciation
increased in 1998 and 1997 due to the increased tenant build-out.

Cash distributions allocated to the Partnership have increased over prior year
levels due primarily to the lease up of the project and savings in operating
expenses. Cash fundings to the Joint Venture for construction were contributed
by Wells Fund V which increased its ownership interest and decreased the
Partnership's ownership interest in the Fund IV -- V-Joint Venture.

The Medical Center Project incurred property taxes of $36,862 for 1998, $35,691
for 1997, and $37,898 for 1996.

Net Income Allocated to the

Net income decreased and expenses increased in 1998, as compared to 1997, due
primarily to an insurance reimbursement received in 1997 from the tenant for
prior year's expenses.

The Partnership's ownership in the Fund V-Fund VI Joint Venture decreased from
47.5% in 1996, to 46.5% in 1997 and 1998 due to additional fundings by Wells
Fund VI, which increased Wells Fund VI's ownership interest and decreased the
Partnership's ownership interest in the Fund V- Fund VI Joint Venture.

Cash distributions remained relatively stable from 1998 as compared to 1997 and
1996. Net income allocated to the Partnership decreased in 1998 as compared to
1997 due to decreased insurance reimbursement as discussed above but increased
in 1997 as compared to 1996, due to the insurance reimbursement discussed above.

Real estate taxes and all operational expenses for the building are the

Net income is greater in 1998, as compared to 1997, due primarily to increased

from 1996 levels due primarily to a bad debt recovery in 1997, and decreased in
1998 from 1997 due to increased CAM billings to tenants.

The Partnership's ownership percentage in the Fund V - Fund VI Joint Venture
decreased to 46.5% in 1998 and 1997 from 47.5% in 1996 due to additional
investments by Wells Fund VI which increased Wells Fund VI's ownership interest
and decreased the Partnership's ownership interest in the Fund V - Fund VI Joint
Venture.

The Stockbridge Village II Project incurred property taxes of $23,508 for 1998,

increasing, as compared to 1997. Cash distributions to the partnership and net
income allocated to Partnership remained relatively stable for 1998.

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

During its offering, which terminated on March 3, 1993, the Partnership raised a
total $17,006,020 in capital through the sale of 1,700,602 units. No additional
units will be sold by the Partnership. As of December 31, 1998, the Partnership
incurred $3,145,282 in commission fees, acquisition fees, organization and
offering costs; invested $13,774,757 in properties; reserved $85,981 as working
capital reserves. No funds have been reserved by the Partnership for investment
in the Fund V - Fund VI Stockbridge Village II Project.

16


Pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership is required
to maintain working capital reserves in an amount equal to the cash operating
expenses required to operate the Partnership for a six-month period not the be
reduced below 1% of Limited Partners' capital contributions. As set forth
above, in order to fund tenant improvements of approximately $84,079 the General
Partners have used a portion of the Partnership's working capital reserves to
reduce the balance below this minimum amount, rather than funding out of
operating cash flow. The General Partners anticipated that the remaining
$85,981 in working capital reserves will be sufficient to meet its future needs.

The Partnership's net cash used in operating activities increased from $65,728
for the year ended December 31, 1996 to $66,556 for the year ended December 31,
1997 to $77,135 for the year ended December 31, 1998 primarily due to decreases
in interest income in 1998 and 1997 and changes in accounts payable. Net cash
provided by investing activities fluctuated from $1,072,610 in 1996 and $966,869
in 1997 and $1,223,796 in 1998 primarily due to changes in investments in joint
ventures and increases in distributions received from joint ventures.

The Partnership's distributions paid and payable through the fourth quarter of
1998 have been paid from net cash from operations and from a return of capital.
The Partnership anticipates that distributions will continue to be paid on a
quarterly basis from such sources.

The Partnership is unaware of any known demands, commitments, events or capital
expenditures other than that which is required for the normal operations of its
properties that will result in the Partnership's liquidity increasing or
decreasing in any material way. The Partnership expects to meet liquidity
requirements and budget demands through cash flow from operations.

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.

Year 2000
- ---------

The Partnership is presently reviewing the potential impact of Year 2000
compliance issues on its information systems and business operations. A full
assessment of Year 2000 compliance issues was begun in late 1997 and is expected
to be completed by March 31, 1999. Renovations and replacements of equipment
have been and are being made as warranted as the assessment

17


progresses. The costs incurred by the Partnership and its affiliates thus far
for renovations and replacements have been immaterial. Some testing of systems
has begun and all testing is expected to be complete by June 30, 1999.

As to the status of the Partnership's information technology systems, it is
presently believed that all major systems and software packages with the
exception of the accounting and property management package are Year 2000
compliant. The Partnership's affiliated entities are purchasing the upgrade for
the accounting and property management package system; however, it is not slated
to be available until the end of the first quarter of 1999. At the present
time, it is believed that all major non-information technology systems are Year
2000 compliant. The cost to upgrade any non-compliant systems is believed to be
immaterial.

The Partnership is in the process of confirming with the Partnership's
vendors, including third-party service providers such as banks, that their
systems will be Year 2000 compliant. Based on the information received thus
far, the primary third-party service providers with which the Partnership has
relationships have confirmed their Year 2000 readiness.

The Partnership relies on computers and operating systems provided by
equipment manufacturers, and also on application software designed for use with
its accounting, property management and investment portfolio tracking. The
Partnership has preliminarily determined that any costs, problems or
uncertainties associated with the potential consequences of Year 2000 issues are
not expected to have a material impact on the future operations or financial
condition of the Partnership. The Partnership will perform due diligence as to
the Year 2000 readiness of each property owned by the Partnership and each
property contemplated for purchase by the Partnership.

The Partnership's reliance on embedded computer systems (i.e.,
microcontrollers) is limited to facilities related matters, such as office
security systems and environmental control systems.

The Partnership is currently formulating contingency plans to cover any areas
of concern. Alternate means of operating the business are being developed in
the unlikely circumstance that the computer and phone systems are rendered
inoperable. An off-site facility from which the Partnership could operate is
being sought as well as alternate means of communication with key third-party
vendors. A written plan is being developed for testing and dispensation to each
staff member of the Advisor of the Partnership.

Management believes that the Partnership's risk of Year 2000 problems is
minimal. In the unlikely event there is a problem, the worst case scenarios
would include the risks that the elevator or security systems within the
Partnership's properties would fail or the key third-party vendors upon which
the Partnership relies would be unable to provide accurate investor information.
In the event that the elevator shuts down, the Partnership has devised a plan
for each building whereby the tenants will use the stairs until the elevators
are fixed. In the event that the security system shuts down, the Partnership
has devised a plan for each building to hire temporary on-site security guards.
In the event that a third-party vendor has Year 2000 problems relating to
investor information, the Partnership intends to perform a full system back-up
of all investor information as of December 31, 1999 so that the Partnership will
have accurate hard-copy investor information.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



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

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of WELLS REAL ESTATE FUND V,
L.P. (a Georgia public limited partnership) as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and
the related statements of income, partners' capital, and cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998. These financial
statements and the schedule referred to below are the responsibility of the
Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and schedule 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 V, L.P.
as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998 in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. Schedule III--Real Estate Investments
and Accumulated Depreciation as of December 31, 1998 is presented for purposes
of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and is not part
of the basic financial statements. This schedule has been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and,
in our opinion, fairly states in all material respects the financial data
required to be set forth therein in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


DECEMBER 31, 1998, 1997, AND 1996

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization and Business

Wells Real Estate Fund V, L.P. (the "Partnership") is a public limited
partnership organized on October 25, 1990 under the laws of the state of
Georgia. The general partners are Leo F. Wells, III and Wells Partners, L.P.
("Wells Partners"), a Georgia nonpublic limited partnership. The Partnership
has two classes of limited partnership interests, Class A and Class B units.
Class B limited partners shall have a one-time right to elect to have all of
their units treated as Class A 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 to be developed, are currently
under development or construction, are 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 Jacksonville IBM Building, a four-story office building
located in Jacksonville, Florida, (ii) the Medical Center Project, two
substantially identical two-story buildings located in Clayton County,
Georgia, (iii) the Stockbridge Village II property, two retail buildings
located in Clayton County, Georgia, (iv) the Hartford Building, a four-story
office building located in Southington, Connecticut, and (v) the Marathon
Building, a three-story office building located in Appleton, Wisconsin.

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 the real estate assets 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.

F-7


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.

Distribution of Net Cash From Operations

Cash available for distribution, as defined by the partnership agreement, is
distributed to 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 first 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 all limited partners
have received 100% of their adjusted capital contributions, 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
contributions, 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 contributions, as defined

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

. To all the general partners until they have received 100% of their
capital contribution, 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 and 1% to the general partners.

F-8


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 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, investments in joint ventures are 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
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, 1998.

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.

F-9


Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Partnership considers
all highly liquid investments 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.

Per Unit Data

Net income (loss) per unit with respect to the Partnership for the years
ended December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996 is computed based on the average
number of units outstanding during the period.

Reclassifications

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

2. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Due from affiliates at December 31, 1998 and 1997 represents the
Partnership's share of cash to be distributed from its joint venture
investments for the fourth quarters of 1998 and 1997, as follows:



1998 1997
-------- --------

Fund IV and V Associates $154,358 $144,088
Fund V and VI Associates 107,472 123,561
Fund V, VI, and VII Associates 38,844 38,061
-------- --------
$300,674 $305,710
======== ========


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 $109,011, $111,690, and $174,834 for
the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively, which were
paid to Wells Management.

The Company 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.

F-10


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.

3. INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURES

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS




To Wells Real Estate Fund V, L.P. and
Wells Real Estate Fund VI, L.P.:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of THE HARTFORD building as of
December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the related statements of income, partners'
capital, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 1998. These financial statements are the responsibility of the building's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Hartford Building as of
December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

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.

Income Taxes

Hartford is not deemed to be a taxable entity for federal income tax
purposes.

Real Estate Assets

Real estate assets are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Major
improvements and betterments are capitalized when they extend the useful life
of the related asset. All 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 Hartford as of December 31, 1998.

Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over 25 years.

F-31


Revenue Recognition

The lease on Hartford is classified as an operating lease, and the related
rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the
lease.

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 statement of cash flows, Hartford considers all
highly liquid investments 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.

2. RENTAL INCOME

The future minimum rental income due Hartford under noncancelable operating
leases at December 31, 1998 is as follows:

Year ending December 31:
1999 $ 724,200
2000 724,200
2001 724,200
2002 724,200
Thereafter 663,850
----------
$3,560,650
==========

One tenant contributed 100% of rental income for the year ended December 31,
1998 and represents 100% of the future minimum rental income above.

3. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Fund V and Fund VI entered into a property management agreement with Wells
Management Company, Inc. ("Wells Management"), an affiliate of Fund V and
Fund VI. In consideration for supervising the management of Hartford, Fund V
and Fund VI 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.

Hartford incurred management and leasing fees of $27,719, $30,189, and
$28,700 for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively,
which were paid to Wells Management.
