1.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Organization and Business

Wells Real Estate Fund VII, L.P. (the “Partnership”) is a public limited partnership organized on December 1, 1992 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 non-public limited partnership (the “General Partners”). Upon subscription, limited partners elect to have their units treated as either Class A units or Class B units. Limited partners have the right to change their prior elections to have some or all of their units treated as Class A or Class B units one time during each quarterly accounting period. 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.

On April 6, 1994, the Partnership commenced an offering of up to $25,000,000 of Class A or Class B limited partnership units pursuant to a Registration Statement filed on Form S-11 under the Securities Act of 1933. The Partnership terminated its offering on January 5, 1995 upon receiving gross proceeds of $24,180,174 representing subscriptions for approximately 1,678,810 Class A units and 739,207 Class B units held by 1,591 and 319 limited partners, respectively.

The Partnership owns interests in all of its real estate assets through Joint Ventures with other Wells Real Estate Funds. As of June 30, 2003, the Partnership owned interests in the following eight properties through the affiliated Joint Ventures (the “Joint Ventures”) listed below:
