PART 1.

Item 1. Business

Organization

WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund, VI, L.P., Series 5 (the "Partnership") was formed
under the California Revised Limited Partnership Act on March 3, 1997 and
commenced operations on August 29, 1997. The Partnership was formed to invest
primarily in other limited partnerships or limited liability companies which
will own and operate multifamily housing complexes that are eligible for
low-income housing federal and, in certain cases, California income tax credits
("Low Income Housing Credit").

The general partner of the Partnership is WNC & Associates, Inc. ("Associates"
or the "General Partner".) Wilfred N. Cooper, Sr., through the Cooper Revocable
Trust, owns 66.8% of the outstanding stock of Associates. John B. Lester, Jr.
was the original limited partner of the Partnership and owns, through the Lester
Family Trust, 28.6% of the outstanding stock of Associates. Wilfred N. Cooper,
Jr., President of Associates, owns 2.1% of the outstanding stock of Associates.
The business of the Partnership is conducted primarily through Associates, as
the Partnership has no employees of its own.

Pursuant to a registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on June 23, 1997, the Partnership commenced a public offering of
25,000 units of Limited Partnership Interest ("Units"), at a price of $1,000 per
Unit. As of the close of the public offering on July 9, 1998, the Partnership
had received and accepted subscriptions for 25,000 Units in the amount of
$24,918,175 net of volume and dealer discounts of $81,825. Holders of Units are
referred to herein as "Limited Partners."

Description of Business

The Partnership's principal business objective is to provide its Limited
Partners with Low Income Housing Credits. The Partnership's principal business
therefore consists of investing as a limited partner or non-managing member in
Local Limited Partnerships each of which will own and operate a multi-family
housing complex (the "Housing Complex") which will qualify for the Low Income
Housing Credit. In general, under Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code, an
owner of low-income housing can receive the Low Income Housing Credit to be used
to reduce Federal taxes otherwise due in each year of a ten-year period. In
general, under Section 17058 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code, an
owner of low-income housing can receive the Low Income Housing Credit to be used
against California taxes otherwise due in each year of a four-year period. The
Housing Complex is subject to a fifteen-year compliance period (the "Compliance
Period"), and under state law may have to be maintained as low income housing
for 30 or more years.

In general, in order to avoid recapture of Low Income Housing Credits, the
Partnership does not expect that it will dispose of its interests in Local
Limited Partnerships ("Local Limited Partnership Interests") or approve the sale
by any Local Limited Partnership of its Housing Complex prior to the end of the
applicable Compliance Period. Because of (i) the nature of the Housing
Complexes, (ii) the difficulty of predicting the resale market for low-income
housing 15 or more years in the future, and (iii) the ability of government
lenders to disapprove of transfer, it is not possible at this time to predict
whether the liquidation of the Partnership's assets and the disposition of the
proceeds, if any, in accordance with the Partnership's Agreement of Limited
Partnership, as amended "by Supplements thereto" (the "Partnership Agreement"),
will be able to be accomplished promptly at the end of the 15-year period. If a
Local Limited Partnership is unable to sell its Housing Complex, it is
anticipated that the local general partner ("Local General Partner") will either
continue to operate such Housing Complex or take such other actions as the Local
General Partner believes to be in the best interest of the Local Limited
Partnership. Notwithstanding the preceding, circumstances beyond the control of
the General Partner or the Local General Partners may occur during the
Compliance Period, which would require the Partnership to approve the
disposition of a Housing Complex prior to the end thereof, possibly resulting in
recapture of Low Income Housing Credits.

3



As of March 31, 2001, the Partnership had invested in fifteen Local Limited
Partnerships. Each of these Local Limited Partnerships owns a Housing Complex
that is eligible for the federal Low Income Housing Credit. Certain Local
Limited Partnerships may also benefit from government programs promoting low- or
moderate-income housing.

The Partnership's investments in Local Limited Partnerships are subject to the
risks incident to the management and ownership of low-income housing and to the
management and ownership of multi-unit residential real estate. Some of these
risks are that the Low Income Housing Credit could be recaptured and that
neither the Partnership's investments nor the Housing Complexes owned by the
Local Limited Partnerships will be readily marketable. To the extent the Housing
Complexes receive government financing or operating subsidies, they may be
subject to one or more of the following risks: difficulties in obtaining tenants
for the Housing Complexes; difficulties in obtaining rent increases; limitations
on cash distributions; limitations on sales or refinancing of Housing Complexes;
limitations on transfers of Local Limited Partnership Interests; limitations on
removal of Local General Partners; limitations on subsidy programs; and possible
changes in applicable regulations. The Housing Complexes are subject to mortgage
indebtedness. If a Local Limited Partnership does not make its mortgage
payments, the lender could foreclose resulting in a loss of the Housing Complex
and Low Income Housing Credits. As a limited partner or non-managing member of
the Local Limited Partnerships, the Partnership will have very limited rights
with respect to management of the Local Limited Partnerships, and will rely
totally on the general partners or managing members of the Local Limited
Partnerships for management of the Local Limited Partnerships. The value of the
Partnership's investments will be subject to changes in national and local
economic conditions, including unemployment conditions, which could adversely
impact vacancy levels, rental payment defaults and operating expenses. This, in
turn, could substantially increase the risk of operating losses for the Housing
Complexes and the Partnership. In addition, each Local Limited Partnership is
subject to risks relating to environmental hazards and natural disasters, which
might be uninsurable. Because the Partnership's operations will depend on these
and other factors beyond the control of the General Partner and the Local
General Partners, there can be no assurance that the anticipated Low Income
Housing Credits will be available to Limited Partners.

In addition, Limited Partners are subject to risks in that the rules governing
the Low Income Housing Credit are complicated, and the use of credits can be
limited. The only material benefit from an investment in Units may be the Low
Income Housing Credits. There are limits on the transferability of Units, and it
is unlikely that a market for Units will develop. All Partnership management
decisions are made by the General Partner.

As a limited partner or non-managing member, the Partnership's liability for
obligations of each Local Limited Partnership is limited to its investment. The
Local General Partners of each Local Limited Partnership retain responsibility
for developing, constructing, maintaining, operating and managing the Housing
Complexes.

Item 2. Properties

Through its investments in Local Limited Partnerships, the Partnership holds
limited partnership interests in the Housing Complexes. The following table
reflects the status of the fifteen Housing Complexes as of the dates and for the
periods indicated:

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

Forward Looking Statements

With the exception of the discussion regarding historical information,
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" and other discussions elsewhere in this Form 10-K contain forward
looking statements. Such statements are based on current expectations subject to
uncertainties and other factors which may involve known and unknown risks that
could cause actual results of operations to differ materially from those
projected or implied. Further, certain forward-looking statements are based upon
assumptions about future events which may not prove to be accurate.

Risks and uncertainties inherent in forward looking statements include, but are
not limited to, our future cash flows and ability to obtain sufficient
financing, level of operating expenses, conditions in the low income housing tax
credit property market and the economy in general, as well as legal proceedings.
Historical results are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for
any future period.

Subsequent written and oral forward looking statements attributable to us or
persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by
cautionary statements in this Form 10-K and in other reports we filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The following discussion should be read in
conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto
included elsewhere in this filing.

Financial Condition

The Partnership's assets at March 31, 2001 consisted primarily of $90,481 in
cash, $256,649 in cash in escrow, $18,822 in amounts due from affiliate, and
aggregate investments in the fifteen Local Limited Partnerships of $17,555,917.
Liabilities at March 31, 2001 primarily consisted of $229,030 due to limited
partnerships, $24,164 in annual asset management fees and $42,134 in advances
and other payables due to the General Partner or affiliates.

Results of Operations

Year Ended March 31, 2001 Compared to Year Ended March 31, 2000. The
Partnership's net loss for the year ended March 31, 2001 was $(2,163,000),
reflecting an increase of $(377,000) from the $(1,786,000) of net loss
experienced for the year ended March 31, 2000. The change is primarily due to an
increase in equity in losses of limited partnerships of $(665,000) to
$(1,804,000) for the year ended March 31, 2001 from $(1,139,000) for the year
ended March 31, 2000. In addition, the change is due to a decrease in advances
to a Local Limited Partnership written off totaling $229,015 during the year
ended March 31, 2001, compared with advances of $402,243 to the same partnership
in 2000 which were also written off in full. Furthermore, interest income
decreased by $102,943 due to significant aggregate capital contributions paid to
certain Local Limited Partnerships during the year ended March 31, 2000
resulting in a significantly lower average cash balance for the year ended March
31, 2001.

Year Ended March 31, 2000 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 1998. The
Partnership's net loss for the year ended March 31, 2000 was $(1,786,000),
reflecting an increase of $1,841,000 from the $55,000 of net income experienced
for the year ended December 31, 1998. The change is primarily due to an increase
in equity in losses of limited partnerships of $1,029,000 to $(1,139,000) for
the year ended March 31, 2000 from $(110,000) for the year ended December 31,
1998. In addition, during the year ended March 31, 2000, the Partnership wrote
off advances of $402,000 to a Local Limited Partnership, realized loss increased
by $188,000, interest income decreased by $156,000, amortization increased by
$17,000 and other operating expenses increased by $48,000.

10


Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1998.
The Partnership's net loss for the three months ended March 31, 1999 was
$(43,000), reflecting a decrease of $75,000 from the net income experienced for
the three months ended March 31, 1998. The change is primarily due to a decrease
in interest income of $39,000 to $14,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1999 from $53,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and an increase in
equity in losses of limited partnerships of $8,000 to $(22,000) for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 from $(14,000) for the three months ended March 31,
1998. In addition, amortization expense increased by $8,000, asset management
fees increased by $16,000 and other operating expenses increased by $3,000.

Cash Flows

Year Ended March 31, 2001 Compared to Year Ended March 31, 2000. The net
decrease in cash during the year ended March 31, 2001 was $(484,000), compared
to a net decrease in cash for the year ended March 31, 2000 of $(2,529,000). The
change was primarily due to a decrease in cash used in investing activities
related to purchase of Limited Partnership interests of approximately $1,593,000
together with a decrease in cash paid to a Local Limited Partnership of
$115,000.

Year Ended March 31, 2000 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 1998. The net
decrease in cash during the year ended March 31, 2000 was $(2,529,000), compared
to a net decrease in cash for the year ended December 31, 1998 of $(1,368,000).
The change was primarily due to a decrease in cash provided by financing
activities of $13,332,000. The decrease in cash provided by financing activities
was due to a decrease in capital contributions of $14,517,000, a decrease in the
collection of notes receivable of $632,000, offset by a decrease in offering
expenses paid of $1,817,000. Net cash used in operating activities increased by
$93,825. The increase in cash used in operating activities was due primarily to
an increase in other expenses. The decrease in cash from financing activities
and operating activities was offset by a decrease in cash used in investing
activities of $12,667,000. The decrease in investing activities was primarily
due to decrease in funds placed in escrow of $9,488,000, a decrease in
investments in limited partnerships of $2,987,000, a decrease in capitalized
acquisition costs and fees of $1,121,000, offset by a decrease in cash collected
on loans receivable of $879,000, an increase in advances to Local Limited
Partnership of $402,000 and an increase in marketable securities of $50,000.

Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1998.
Net decrease in cash during the three months ended March 31, 1999 was
$(419,000), compared to a net increase in cash for the three months ended March
31, 1998 of $2,723,000. The change was due primarily to a decrease in capital
contributions of $5,411,000 and an increase in cash paid to the General Partner
or affiliates of $18,000, offset by an increase in collections of notes
receivable due from limited partners of $880,000, a decrease in offering
expenses paid of $533,000, a decrease in investments in limited partnerships of
$608,000 and a decrease in acquisition fees and costs of $266,000.

During the years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, the three months ended March 31,
1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998, accrued payables, which consist of
related party management fees and advances due to the General Partner, decreased
by $58,000, decreased by $36,000, increased by $63,000 and decreased by
$265,000, respectively.

The Partnership expects its future cash flows, together with its net available
assets at March 31, 2001, to be sufficient to meet all currently foreseeable
future cash requirements.

To the Partners
WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P., Series 5


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund
VI, L.P., Series 5 (a California Limited Partnership) (the "Partnership") as of
March 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related statements of operations, partners'
equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, the
three months ended March 31, 1999, and the year ended December 31, 1998. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. A significant portion of the financial statements of the limited
partnerships in which the Partnership is a limited partner were audited by other
auditors whose reports have been furnished to us. As discussed in Note 3 to the
financial statements, the Partnership accounts for its investments in limited
partnerships using the equity method. The portion of the Partnership's
investment in limited partnerships audited by other auditors represented 84% and
83% of the total assets of the Partnership at March 31, 2001 and 2000,
respectively. Our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included in the
financial statements for the limited partnerships which were audited by others,
is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. 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 and the reports of
the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors, the
financial statements referred to above present fairly in all material respects,
the financial position of WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P., Series 5 (a
California Limited Partnership) as of March 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results
of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended March 31, 2001 and
2000, the three months ended March 31, 1999, and the year ended December 31,
1998, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- ---------------------------------------------------
Organization
- ------------
WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P., Series 5, a California Limited Partnership
(the "Partnership"), was formed on March 3, 1997 under the laws of the State of
California, and commenced operations on August 29, 1997. The Partnership was
formed to invest primarily in other limited partnerships and limited liability
companies (the "Local Limited Partnerships") which own and operate multi-family
housing complexes (the "Housing Complex") that are eligible for low income
housing credits. The local general partners (the "Local General Partners") of
each Local Limited Partnership retain responsibility for maintaining, operating
and managing the Housing Complex.

The general partner is WNC & Associates, Inc. ("WNC") (the "General Partner"), a
California corporation. Wilfred N. Cooper, Sr., through the Cooper Revocable
Trust, owns 66.8% of the outstanding stock of WNC. John B. Lester was the
original limited partner of the Partnership and owns, through the Lester Family
Trust, 28.6% of the outstanding stock of WNC. Wilfred N. Cooper, Jr., President
of WNC, owns 2.1% of the outstanding stock of WNC.

The Partnership shall continue in full force and effect until December 31, 2052,
unless terminated prior to that date, pursuant to the partnership agreement or
law.

The financial statements include only activity relating to the business of the
Partnership, and do not give effect to any assets that the partners may have
outside of their interests in the Partnership, or to any obligations, including
income taxes, of the partners.

The partnership agreement authorized the sale of up to 25,000 units at $1,000
per Unit ("Units"). The offering of Units concluded on July 9, 1998 at which
time 25,000 Units representing subscriptions in the amount of $24,918,175, net
of discount of $54,595 for volume purchases and $27,230 for dealer discounts,
had been accepted. The General Partner has a 1% interest in operating profits
and losses, taxable income and losses, in cash available for distribution from
the Partnership and tax credits. The limited partners will be allocated the
remaining 99% interest in proportion to their respective investments.

After the limited partners have received proceeds from a sale or refinancing
equal to their capital contributions and their return on investment (as defined
in the Partnership Agreement) and the General Partner has received proceeds
equal to its capital contribution and a subordinated disposition fee (as
described in Note 4) from the remainder, any additional sale or refinancing
proceeds will be distributed 90% to the limited partners (in proportion to their
respective investments) and 10% to the General Partner.

Change in Reporting Year End
- ----------------------------
In 1999, the Partnership elected to change its year end for financial reporting
purposes from December 31 to March 31. All financial information reflected in
the financial statements and related footnotes has been adjusted for this change
in year end except for the combined condensed financial information relating to
the Local Limited Partnerships included in Note 3.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
- --------------------------------------------------------------
Risks and Uncertainties
- -----------------------
The Partnership's investments in Local Limited Partnerships are subject to the
risks incident to the management and ownership of low-income housing and to the
management and ownership of multi-unit residential real estate. Some of these
risks are that the low income housing credit could be recaptured and that
neither the Partnership's investments nor the Housing Complexes owned by the
Local Limited Partnerships will be readily marketable. To the extent the Housing
Complexes receive government financing or operating subsidies, they may be
subject to one or more of the following risks: difficulties in obtaining tenants
for the Housing Complexes; difficulties in obtaining rent increases; limitations
on cash distributions; limitations on sales or refinancing of Housing Complexes;
limitations on transfers of Local Limited Partnership Interests; limitations on
removal of Local General Partners; limitations on subsidy programs; and possible
changes in applicable regulations. The Housing Complexes are or will be subject
to mortgage indebtedness. If a Local Limited Partnership does not make its
mortgage payments, the lender could foreclose resulting in a loss of the Housing
Complex and low-income housing credits. As a limited partner of the Local
Limited Partnerships, the Partnership will have very limited rights with respect
to management of the Local Limited Partnerships, and will rely totally on the
Local General Partners of the Local Limited Partnerships for management of the
Local Limited Partnerships. The value of the Partnership's investments will be
subject to changes in national and local economic conditions, including
unemployment conditions, which could adversely impact vacancy levels, rental
payment defaults and operating expenses. This, in turn, could substantially
increase the risk of operating losses for the Housing Complexes and the
Partnership. In addition, each Local Limited Partnership is subject to risks
relating to environmental hazards and natural disasters, which might be
uninsurable. Because the Partnership's operations will depend on these and other
factors beyond the control of the General Partner and the Local General
Partners, there can be no assurance that the anticipated low income housing
credits will be available to Limited Partners.

In addition, Limited Partners are subject to risks in that the rules governing
the low income housing credit are complicated, and the use of credits can be
limited. The only material benefit from an investment in Units may be the low
income housing credits. There are limits on the transferability of Units, and it
is unlikely that a market for Units will develop. All management decisions will
be made by the General Partner.

Method of Accounting for Investments in Limited Partnerships
- ------------------------------------------------------------
The Partnership accounts for its investments in limited partnerships using the
equity method of accounting, whereby the Partnership adjusts its investment
balance for its share of the Local Limited Partnerships' results of operations
and for any distributions received. The accounting policies of the Local Limited
Partnerships' are consistent with those of the Partnership. Costs incurred by
the Partnership in acquiring the investments are capitalized as part of the
investment account and are being amortized over 30 years (see Note 3).

Losses from Local Limited Partnerships for the year ended December 31, 1998 have
been recorded by the Partnership based on reported results provided by the Local
Limited Partnerships. Losses from Local Limited Partnerships for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 have been estimated by management of the
Partnership. Losses from limited partnerships for the years ended March 31, 2001
and 2000 have been recorded by the Partnership based on nine months of reported
results provided by the Local Limited Partnerships and on three months of
results estimated by management of the Partnership. Losses from the limited
partnerships allocated to the Partnership will not be recognized to the extent
that the investment balance would be adjusted below zero.

Offering Expenses
- -----------------
Offering expenses consist of underwriting commissions, legal fees, printing,
filing and recordation fees, and other costs incurred in connection with selling
limited partnership interests in the Partnership. The General Partner is
obligated to pay all offering and organization costs in excess of 14.5%
(including sales commissions) of the total offering proceeds. Offering expenses
are reflected as a reduction of limited partners' capital and amounted to
$3,557,441, $3,357,441, $3,248,440, and $3,183,115 as of March 31, 2001, 2000
and 1999 and December 31, 1998, respectively.

For The Year Ended December 31, 1998


NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
- --------------------------------------------------------------
Use of Estimates
- ----------------
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 materially differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
- -------------------------
The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with remaining
maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. As of
March 31, 2001 and 2000, the Partnership had cash equivalents of $50,000 and
$393,648, respectively. Of this amount, $50,000 and $375,000, respectively,
consist of tax exempt instruments collateralized by tax exempt municipal bonds
from various municipalities throughout the United States. These instruments
generate tax exempt yields and generally have 35 day or less maturities.

Concentration of Credit Risk
- ----------------------------
At March 31, 2001, the Partnership maintained cash balances at certain financial
institutions in excess of the federally insured maximum.

Net (Loss) Income Per Limited Partner Unit
- ------------------------------------------
Net (loss) income per limited partner unit is calculated pursuant to Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Net (loss) income
per unit includes no dilution and is computed by dividing loss available to
limited partners by the weighted average number of units outstanding during the
period. Calculation of diluted net (loss) income per unit is not required.

Reporting Comprehensive Income
- ------------------------------
In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. This statement establishes
standards for reporting the components of comprehensive income and requires that
all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as
components of comprehensive income be included in a financial statement that is
displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. Comprehensive
income includes net income as well as certain items that are reported directly
within a separate component of partners' equity and bypass net income. The
Partnership adopted the provisions of this statement in 1998. For the periods
presented, the Partnership has no elements of other comprehensive income, as
defined by SFAS No. 130.

NOTE 3 - INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS
- --------------------------------------------

As of March 31, 2001 and 2000 the Partnership had acquired limited partnership
interests in 15 and 14 Local Limited Partnerships, respectively, each of which
owns one Housing Complex consisting of an aggregate of 624 and 614 apartment
units, respectively. The respective general partners of the Local Limited
Partnerships Manage the day-To-day operations of the entities. Significant Local
Limited Partnership business decisions require approval from the Partnership.
The Partnership, as a limited partner, is generally entitled to 99%, as
specified in the Local Limited Partnership agreements, of the operating profits
and losses, taxable income and losses and tax credits of the Local Limited
Partnerships.

The Partnership's investments in limited partnerships as reflected in the
balance sheets at March 31, 2001 and 2000, are approximately $1,653,000 and
$2,134,000, respectively, greater than the Partnership's combined equity at the
preceding December 31 as shown in the Local Limited Partnerships' combined
financial statements presented below. This difference is primarily due to
acquisition, selection, and other costs related to the acquisition of the
investments which have been capitalized in the Partnership's investment account
and to capital contributions payable to the limited partnerships which were
netted against partner capital in the Local Limited Partnerships' financial
statements (see Note 5). The Partnership's investment is also lower than the
Partnership's equity as shown in the Local Limited Partnership's combined
financial statements due to the losses recorded by the Partnership for the three
month period ended March 31.

Equity in losses of the Local Limited Partnerships is recognized in the
financial statements until the related investment account is reduced to a zero
balance. Losses incurred after the investment account is reduced to zero are not
recognized. If the Local Limited Partnerships report net income in future years,
the Partnership will resume applying the equity method only after its share of
such net income equals the share of net losses not recognized during the
period(s) the equity method was suspended.

Distributions received by limited partners are accounted for as a reduction of
the investment balance. Distributions received after the investment has reached
zero are recognized as income. As of March 31, 2001, no investment accounts in
Local Limited Partnerships reached a zero balance.

NOTE 6 - PAYABLES TO LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS
- -----------------------------------------
Payables to limited partnerships represent amounts which are due at various
times based on conditions specified in the respective limited partnership
agreements. These contributions are payable in installments and are generally
due upon the limited partnerships achieving certain development and operating
benchmarks (generally within two years of the Partnership's initial investment).

NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES
- ---------------------
No provision for income taxes has been recorded in the accompanying financial
statements as any liability for income taxes is the obligation of the partners
of the Partnership.

NOTE 8 - SUBSCRIPTIONS AND NOTES RECEIVABLE
- -------------------------------------------
During 1998, the Partnership received subscriptions for 15,166 Units which
included promissory notes of $615,250, of which $576,650 was collected in 1999
prior to the issuance of the December 31, 1998 financial statements, leaving an
unpaid balance of $38,600. As this balance was paid in 1999 prior to issuance of
the March 31, 1999 financial statements it is reflected as capital contributed
during the three months ended March 31, 1999.

In 1997, the Partnership had received promissory notes of $351,150 related to
the sale of Units, of which the balance of $303,150 was collected in full in

an asset in the financial statements. Any unpaid balance as of the issuance of
the 1998 financial statements was reflected as a reduction of partners' equity
in the financial statements.

property has continued to rent up and Section 8 certifications have been
obtained for approximately 100% of the units. Such certifications should enable

MANSUR WOOD LIVING CENTER, L.P.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2000 AND 1999




NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION

Mansur Wood Living Center, L.P. ("the Partnership") was formed as a
limited partnership under the laws of the State of Illinois on April 21,
1998, for the purpose of constructing and operating a rental housing
project. The project consists of 115 units located in Carbon Cliff,
Illinois, and will operate under the name of Mansur Wood Living Center.

The project is expected to qualify for the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit
established by the Tax Reform Act of 1986.



NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the Partnership's significant accounting policies
consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial
statements follows:

CAPITALIZATION AND DEPRECIATION

Land, building and improvements are recorded at cost. Improvements are
capitalized, while expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged
to expense as incurred. Upon disposal of depreciable property, the
appropriate property accounts are reduced by the related costs and
accumulated depreciation. Interest expense capitalized in 2000 and 1999
amounts to $146,589 and $13,125, respectively.

Depreciation is provided for in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of
depreciable assets to operations over their estimated service lives. The
estimated service life of the assets for depreciation purposes may be
different than their actual economic useful lives.

Estimated Life Method
-------------- -------
Land - None
Building and Improvements 27.5 Years Straight-Line
Furniture and Equip Various MACRS

RENTAL INCOME AND PREPAID RENTS
- -------------------------------
Rental income is recognized for apartment rentals as it
accrues.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (Continued)
- ------------------------------------------

CUMULATIVE EFFECT OF CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE
- ---------------------------------------------------
In April 1998, Statement of Position (SOP) No. 98-5 Reporting on the
Costs of Start-Up Activities was issued. This SOP provides guidance on
the financial reporting of start-up costs and organization costs, and
requires that these costs be expensed as incurred effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1998. As of January 1, 2000, the
unamortized organization costs were written off and accounted for as a
cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. This change did
not have a material effect on prior periods. The effect of this change
was to increase the 2000 loss by $13,893.

AMORTIZATION
------------
Mortgage costs are amortized over the term of the mortgage loan using the
straight-line method.

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

ESTIMATES
---------
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.

NOTE 3 - CASH
----

The Partnership maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at
times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Partnership has not
experienced any losses in such accounts. The Partnership believes it is
not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.
