PART I

 

Item 1.                                     Business

 

Organization

 

Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund III L.P. (the “Fund”) is a limited partnership formed under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act as of September 19, 1991.  Effective as of June 1, 2001, there was a restructuring and, as a result, the Fund’s general partner was reorganized as follows.  The general partner of the Fund continues to be Boston Capital Associates III L.P., a Delaware limited partnership.  The general partner of the general partner is now BCA Associates Limited Partnership, a Massachusetts limited partnership, whose sole general partner is C&M Management, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation.  John P. Manning is the principal of Boston Capital Partners, Inc.  The limited partner of the general partner is Capital Investment Holdings, a general partnership whose partners are certain officers and employees of Boston Capital Partners, Inc., and its affiliates.  The assignor limited partner is BCTC III Assignor Corp., a Delaware corporation which is wholly-owned by John P. Manning.

 

The assignor limited partner was formed for the purpose of serving in that capacity for the Fund and will not engage in any other business. Units of beneficial interest in the limited partnership interest of the assignor limited partner are assigned by the assignor limited partner by means of beneficial assignee certificates (“BACs”) to investors and investors are entitled to all the rights and economic benefits of a limited partner of the Fund, including rights to a percentage of the income, gains, losses, deductions, credits and distributions of the Fund.

 

A Registration Statement on Form S-11 and the related prospectus, as supplemented (together with each subsequently filed prospectus, as supplemented, the “Prospectus”) was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and became effective January 24, 1992 in connection with a public offering (together with each subsequent offering of BACs described herein, the “Offering”) in one or more series of a minimum of 250,000 BACs and a maximum of 20,000,000 BACs at $10 per BAC.  On September 4, 1993 the Fund filed Form S-11 with the Securities and Exchange Commission which registered an additional 2,000,000 BACs at $10 per BAC for sale to the public in one or more series.  The registration for additional BACs became effective on October 6, 1993.  As of March 31, 2010, subscriptions had been received and accepted by the General Partner in Series 15, 16, 17, 18 and 19 for 21,996,102 BACs, representing capital contributions of $219,961,020.  The Fund issued the last BACs in Series 19 on December 17, 1993.  This concluded the Offering of the Fund.

 

The Offering, including information regarding the issuance of BACs in series, is described in each Prospectus, as supplemented, under the caption “The Offering”, which descriptions are incorporated herein by reference.

Description of Business

 

The Fund’s principal business is to invest as a limited partner in other limited partnerships (the “Operating Partnerships”) each of which will own or lease and will operate an apartment complex exclusively or partially for low- and moderate-income tenants.  Each Operating Partnership in which the Fund invests owns apartment complexes, which are completed, newly constructed, under construction or rehabilitation, or to-be constructed or rehabilitated, and which are expected to receive government assistance.  Each apartment complex is expected to qualify for the low-income housing tax credit under Section 42 of the Code (the “Federal Housing Tax Credit”), providing tax benefits over a period of ten to twelve years in the form of tax credits which investors may use to offset income, subject to strict limitations, from other sources.  Some apartment complexes may also qualify for the historic rehabilitation tax credit under Section 47 of the Code (the “Rehabilitation Tax Credit”).  The Federal Housing Tax Credit and the government assistance programs are described on pages 37 to 51 of the Prospectus, as supplemented, under the captions “Tax Credit Programs” and “Government Assistance Programs,” which is incorporated herein by reference.  Section 236 (f) (ii) of the National Housing Act, as amended, and Section 101 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1965, as amended, each provide for the making by HUD of rent supplement payments to low income tenants in properties which receive other forms of federal assistance including tax credits.  The payments for each tenant, which are made directly to the owner of their property, generally are in amounts to enable the tenant to pay rent equal to 30% of the adjusted family income.  Some of the apartment complexes in which the Fund has invested are receiving such rent supplements from HUD. HUD has been in the process of converting rent supplement assistance to assistance paid not to the owner of the apartment complex, but directly to the individuals.  At this time, the Fund is unable to predict whether Congress will continue rent supplement programs payable directly to owners of apartment complexes.

 

As of March 31, 2010 the Fund had invested in 40 Operating Partnerships on behalf of Series 15, 46 Operating Partnerships on behalf of Series 16, 39 Operating Partnerships on behalf of Series 17, 26 Operating Partnerships on behalf of Series 18 and 19 Operating Partnerships on behalf of Series 19.  A description of these Operating Partnerships is set forth in Item 2 herein.

 

The business objectives of the Fund are to:

 

(1)                    provide current tax benefits to investors in the form of Federal Housing Tax Credits, and in limited instances, a small amount of Rehabilitation Tax Credits, which an investor may apply, subject to strict limitations, against the investor’s federal income tax liability from active, portfolio and passive income;

 

(2)                    provide tax benefits in the form of passive losses which an investor may apply to offset his passive income (if any); and

 

(3)                    preserve and protect the Fund’s capital and provide capital appreciation and cash distributions through increases in value of the Fund’s investments and, to the extent applicable, equity buildup through periodic payments on the mortgage indebtedness with respect to the apartment complexes.

The business objectives and investment policies of the Fund are described more fully on pages 30 to 37 of the Prospectus, as supplemented, under the caption “Investment Objectives and Acquisition Policies,” which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Employees

 

The Fund does not have any employees.  Services are performed by the general partner and its affiliates and agents retained by them.

 

Item 1A.                           Risk Factors

 

As used in this Item 1A, references to “we, “us” and “our” mean the Fund.

 

An investment in our BACs and our investments in Operating Partnerships are subject to risks. These risks may impact the tax benefits of an investment in our BACs, and the amount of proceeds available for distribution to our limited partners, if any, on liquidation of our investments.

 

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the following factors which could materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. The risks described below are not the only risks we face. Additional factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business operations.

 

The ability of limited partners to claim tax losses from their investment in us is limited.

 

The IRS may audit us or an Operating Partnership and challenge the tax treatment of tax items. The amount of Low Income Housing Tax Credits and tax losses allocable to the investors could be reduced if the IRS were successful in such a challenge.  The alternative minimum tax could reduce tax benefits from an investment in our BACs.  Changes in tax laws could also impact the tax benefits from an investment in our BACs and/or the value of the Operating Partnerships.  Until the Operating Partnerships have completed a mandatory fifteen year Low Income Housing Tax Credit compliance period, investors are at risk for potential recapture of Low Income Housing Tax Credits that have already been claimed.

 

The Low Income Housing Tax Credits rules are extremely complicated and noncompliance with these rules may have adverse consequences for BAC holders.

 

Noncompliance with applicable tax regulations may result in the loss of future Low Income Housing Tax Credits and the fractional recapture of Low Income Housing Tax Credits already taken. In most cases the annual amount of Low Income Housing Tax Credits that an individual can use is limited to the tax liability due on the person’s last $25,000 of taxable income.  The Operating Partnerships may be sold at a price which would not result in our realizing cash distributions or proceeds from the transaction.  Accordingly, we may be unable to distribute any cash to our investors. Low Income Housing Tax Credits may be the only benefit from an investment in our BACs.

Table of Contents

 

Poor performance of one housing complex, or the real estate market generally, could impair our ability to satisfy our investment objectives.

 

Each housing complex is subject to mortgage indebtedness. If an Operating Partnership failed to pay its mortgage, it could lose its housing complex in foreclosure. If foreclosure were to occur during the first 15 years of the existence of the Fund, the loss of any remaining future Low Income Housing Tax Credits, a fractional recapture of previously claimed Low Income Housing Tax Credits, and a loss of our investment in the housing complex would occur.  To the extent the Operating Partnerships receive government financing or operating subsidies, they may be subject to one or more of the following risks:

 

·                  difficulties in obtaining rent increases;

·                  limitations on cash distributions;

·                  limitations on sales or refinancing of Operating Partnerships;

·                  limitations on transfers of interests in Operating Partnerships;

·                  limitations on removal of local general partners;

·                  limitations on subsidy programs; and

·                  possible changes in applicable regulations.

 

The value of real estate is subject to risks from fluctuating economic conditions, including employment rates, inflation, tax, environmental, land use and zoning policies, supply and demand of similar properties, and neighborhood conditions, among others.

 

No trading market for the BACs exists or is expected to develop.

 

There is currently no active trading market for the BACs.  Accordingly, limited partners may be unable to sell their BACs or may have to sell BACs at a discount.  Limited partners should consider their BACs to be a long-term investment.

 

Investors may realize taxable gain on sale or disposition of BACs.

 

Upon the sale or other taxable disposition of BACs, investors will realize taxable income to the extent that their allocable share of the non-recourse mortgage indebtedness on the apartment complexes, together with the money they receive from the sale of the BACs, is greater than the original cost of their BACs.  This realized taxable income is reduced to the extent that investors have suspended passive losses or credits.  It is possible that the sale of BACs may not generate enough cash to pay the tax obligations arising from the sale.

 

Investors may have tax liability in excess of cash.

 

Investors eventually may be allocated profits for tax purposes, which exceed any cash distributed to them.  Under these circumstances, unless an investor has passive losses or credits to reduce this tax liability, the investor will have to pay federal income tax without a corresponding cash distribution.  Similarly, in the event of a sale or foreclosure of an apartment complex or a sale of BACs, an investor may be allocated taxable income, resulting in tax liability, in excess of any cash distributed to him or her as a result of the event.

Table of Contents

 

Investors may not receive cash if apartment complexes are sold.

 

There is no assurance that investors will receive any cash distributions from the sale or refinancing of an apartment complex.  The price at which an apartment complex is sold may not be large enough to pay the mortgage and other expenses which must be paid at such time.  Even if there are net cash proceeds from a sale distributed to the Fund, expenses such as accrued management fees and unpaid loans will be deducted pursuant to Section 4.02(a) of the Fund Agreement.  If any of these events happen, investors will not get all of their investment back, and the only benefit from an investment will be the tax credits received.

 

The sale or refinancing of the apartment complexes is dependent upon the following material factors:

 

·                  The necessity of obtaining the consent of the operating general partners;

·                  The necessity of obtaining the approval of any governmental agency(ies) providing government assistance to the apartment complex; and

·                  The uncertainty of the market.

 

Any sale may occur well after the fifteen-year federal housing tax credit compliance period.

 

We have insufficient sources of cash to pay our existing liabilities.

 

We currently do not have sufficient cash resources to satisfy our financial liabilities.  Furthermore, we do not anticipate that we will have sufficient available cash to pay our future financial liabilities.  Substantially all of our existing liabilities are payable to our general partner and its affiliates.  Though the amounts payable to the General Partner and its affiliates are contractually currently payable, we do not believe that the General Partner or its affiliates will demand immediate payment of these contractual obligations in the near term; however, there can be no assurance that this will be the case.  We would be materially adversely affected if the general partner or its affiliates demanded payment in the near term of our existing contractual liabilities or suspended the provision of services to us because of our inability to satisfy these obligations.  All monies currently deposited, or that will be deposited in the future, into the Fund’s working capital reserves are intended to be utilized to pay our existing and future liabilities.

Item 2.                                     Properties

 

The Fund has acquired a limited partnership interest in 170 Operating Partnerships in five series, identified in the table set forth below.  In each instance the apartment complexes owned by the applicable Operating Partnership is eligible for the Federal Housing Tax Credit.  Initial occupancy of a unit in each apartment complex which complied with the minimum set-aside test (i.e., initial occupancy by tenants with incomes equal to no more than a

designated percentage of area median income) and the rent restriction test (i.e., gross rent charged tenants does not exceed 30% of the applicable income standards) is referred to as “Qualified Occupancy.”  Each of the Operating Partnerships and each of the respective apartment complexes are described more fully in the Prospectus or applicable Report on Form 8-K.  The general partner believes that there is adequate casualty insurance on the properties.

 

Please refer to Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for a more detailed discussion of operational difficulties experienced by certain of the Operating Partnerships.

Liquidity

 

The Fund’s primary source of funds is the proceeds of each Offering. Other sources of liquidity include (i) interest earned on capital contributions held pending investment or on working capital reserves and (ii) cash distributions from operations of the Operating Partnerships in which the Fund has and will invest.  All sources of liquidity are available to meet the obligations of the Fund.  The Fund does not anticipate significant cash distributions in the long or short term from operations of the Operating Partnerships.

Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, such liabilities will be deferred until the Fund receives sale or refinancing proceeds from Operating Partnerships, and at that time proceeds from such sales or refinancing would be used to satisfy such liabilities.

Results of Operations

 

The Fund incurred an annual fund management fee to the general partner and/or its affiliates in an amount equal to 0.5% of the aggregate cost of the apartment complexes owned by the Operating Partnerships, less the amount of various partnership management and reporting fees paid or payable by the Operating Partnerships.  The annual fund management fee incurred, net of reporting fees received for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, was $1,293,970 and $1,546,001, respectively.

 

The Fund’s investment objectives do not include receipt of significant cash distributions from the Operating Partnerships in which it has invested or intends to invest.  The Fund’s investments in Operating Partnerships have been and will be made principally with a view towards realization of Federal Housing Tax Credits for allocation to its partners and BAC holders.

 

(Series 15).  As of March 31, 2010 and 2009, the average Qualified Occupancy for the series was 100%.  The series had a total of 40 properties at March 31, 2010, all of which were at 100% Qualified Occupancy.

 

For the tax years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the series, in total, generated $(447,576) and $2,001,140, respectively, in passive tax income (losses) that were passed through to the investors.

As of March 31, 2010 and 2009, Investments in Operating Partnerships for Series 15 was $0.  Investments in Operating Partnerships was affected by the way the Fund accounts for its investments, the equity method.  By using the equity method the Fund adjusts its investment cost for its share of each Operating Partnership’s results of operations and for any distributions received or accrued.

Beckwood Manor Eight Limited Partnership (Lakeside Apartments) is a 32-unit, senior property, located in Lake Village, Arkansas. The property receives rental assistance for 23 units and is generally able to keep those units occupied. There are several other low income tax credit developments in the area offering rental assistance, and this competition has contributed to the property’s historically low occupancy. It remains difficult to rent units without rental assistance.  The property is offering two months of free rent as a leasing incentive and the management company continues to advertise heavily in surrounding areas. Occupancy was 66% at the end of the first quarter of 2010.  The property operated below breakeven in 2009 due to the low occupancy combined with an increase in operating expenses. Through the first quarter of 2010, the property is operating above breakeven due to a decrease in maintenance and administrative expenses. The investment general partner will conduct a site visit in the third quarter of 2010 to ensure the property is being properly maintained. The operating general partner continues to fund operating deficits as needed.  The mortgage payments, taxes, insurance, and accounts payable are all current.

 

Livingston Plaza, Limited (Livingston Plaza) is a 24-unit, family property located in Livingston, Texas. The property has struggled with occupancy levels for several years. Despite efforts to improve the reputation of the property and reduce resident turnover and evictions, occupancy averaged 62% in 2009 and was 63% at the end of the first quarter of 2010. The property operated below breakeven in 2009 and continues to operate below breakeven through the first quarter of 2010.  The continued low occupancy is partially due to economic conditions in the area. There are also several competitive properties less than a mile from the property. Management reports that trailer home ownership is very affordable in the area and often the monthly mortgage payment is in line with the rent at Livingston Plaza. Management continues to evict between two and three residents each month. Marketing consists of advertisements in local newspapers and distributing flyers to local businesses, churches, and schools. Management has also contacted the local housing authority. Also, to maintain a safe environment for the residents, the site manager worked with the local police department and was successful in establishing regular afternoon and evening police patrols through the property. The mortgage payments, taxes, insurance, and accounts payable are current. The operating general partner guarantee is unlimited in time and amount. The low income housing tax credit compliance period expired on December 31, 2008. The investment general partner is in the process of exploring various disposition opportunities consistent with the investment objectives of the investment partnership.

 

In October 2009, the investment general partner transferred its interest in Osage Housing Associates LP to an entity affiliated with the operating general partner for its assumption of the outstanding mortgage balance of approximately $530,583 and cash proceeds to the investment limited partner of $480,000.  Of the total proceeds received, $7,600 will be paid to BCAMLP for expenses related to the transfer, which includes third party legal costs.  The remaining proceeds of $472,400 will be returned to cash reserves held by Series 15.  The monies held in cash reserves will be utilized to pay current operating expenses, accrued but unpaid asset management fees, and accrued but unpaid expenses of the investment partnership.  After all outstanding obligations of the investment partnership are satisfied, any remaining monies will be distributed based on the number of BACs held by each investor at the time of distribution. Annual losses generated by the Operating Partnership, which were applied against the investment limited partnership investment in the Operating Partnership in accordance with the equity method of accounting, had previously reduced the investment limited partnership investment in the

Operating Partnership to zero. Accordingly, a gain on the sale of the Operating Partnership, net of the overhead and expense reimbursement, has been recorded in the amount of $472,400 as of December 31, 2009.

 

Greentree Apartments Limited (Sue-Ellen Apartments) is a 24-unit, family property located in Utica, OH.  The operating general partner passed away in the second quarter of 2007 and his widow assumed the responsibilities. During 2008, communication with the new operating general partner became extremely difficult while operations declined.  The property operated below breakeven in 2008.  During the first quarter of 2009, the operating general partner learned that the current management company’s contract had been terminated as of December 31, 2008. In addition, Rural Development has accelerated the note and started foreclosure proceedings.  Although the operating general partner appealed, the appeal was denied. The investment general partner learned of these developments from the real estate broker engaged by the operating general partner. There is a reputable potential operating general partner that is interested in acquiring the operating general partner and investment general partner interests.  We anticipate an offer in the third quarter 2010. The affiliated management company of the potential operating general partner has already been placed on-site by Rural Development.  This has improved the overall management of the property. The investment limited partner met with the operating general partner in September 2009 in an effort to push forward the potential sale. The investment general partner will continue to work with the potential incoming operating general partner and Rural Development until there is a resolution to the foreclosure proceedings. The low income housing tax credit compliance period expired on December 31, 2009.

 

Showboat Manor LDHA LP (Showboat Manor Apartments) is a 26-unit senior property located in Chesaning, MI. The property has historically operated with low occupancy, which has resulted in below breakeven operations. In 2009, this property continued to face several challenges. Despite efforts to reduce vacancy through aggressive marketing, occupancy ended in the fourth quarter of 2009 at 85%, and the property continued to operate below breakeven through 2009. Marketing consists of advertisements in local newspapers and distributing flyers to local businesses, churches, and schools. Management has also contacted the local housing authority and has instituted a resident referral program.  To help retain residents, management is offering onsite events to enhance the sense of community. Also, to maintain a safe environment for the residents, the site manager worked with the local police department and was successful in establishing regular afternoon and evening police patrols.  Because of ongoing operating cash flow issues the property was put under a workout plan with Rural Development in 2008.  The goal of the plan was to fully fund the tax and insurance escrow as well as the replacement reserve. However, due to continued low occupancy, management was unsuccessful in fully funding the tax and insurance escrow and replacement reserve account. In December 2009 management informed Rural Development of the issue and at this time is waiting for their response. Through first quarter 2010, the property is continuing to operate with low occupancy and as a result is unable to breakeven. As of March 2010, the property was 84% occupied. The operating general partner’s operating deficit guarantee has expired. The Operating Partnership’s mortgage payments are current. On December 31, 2007, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired.  The investment general partner is in the process of exploring various disposition opportunities consistent with the investment objectives of the investment partnership.

Annual losses generated by the Operating Partnership, which were applied against the investment limited partnership investment in the Operating Partnership in accordance with the equity method of accounting, had previously reduced the investment limited partnership investment in the Operating Partnership to zero.

Palmetto Properties Ltd. (Palmetto Villas) is a 49-unit property located in Palmetto, Florida. The property has historically suffered from low occupancy, high operating expenses, and deferred maintenance issues. Occupancy averaged 73% in 2009. The low occupancy was caused by the property’s lack of rental assistance. Only 28 units had rental assistance, and rents on the remaining units were high relative to what the market could pay. Rural Development agreed to transfer 18 additional units of rental assistance to the property in 2009 and, as a result, occupancy increased to 88% by December. The property has maintained occupancy at 88% through the end of the first quarter of 2010. Despite the increased occupancy the property continues to operate well below breakeven.  Taxes are in arrears, and were sold at a tax certificate sale. On January 5, 2010 Rural Development issued a notice of acceleration on the debt. The reasons for the acceleration were the failure to pay the real estate taxes, adequately fund replacement reserves, maintain the complex in a decent, safe, and sanitary condition, submit an operating budget, and maintain an acceptable occupancy rate. The operating general partner requested a meeting with Rural Development as a result of the acceleration.  The meeting was held on February 10, 2010.  The operating general partner offered several proposals to resolve the cash flow issue including Rural Development approving debt deferral for a period of two years, a rent increase of $30 per unit, the borrower and the investment limited partenr contributing funds, and the deferral of the management fee. Rural Development responded that they did not believe any of the proposals were sufficient and that they were continuing to move forward with the acceleration. The operating general partner has requested mediation to resolve the dispute with Rural Development. The investment general partner will continue to monitor this situation closely. The low income housing tax credit compliance period expired on December 31, 2009.

Cypress Point LP (Laurel Ridge Apartments) is a 78-unit property, located in Naples, FL. Due to local economic conditions, occupancy began decreasing from its historical average of near 100% in 2007. Occupancy averaged 90% in 2008 and 94% in 2009 with below breakeven operations. As economic conditions have deteriorated in Florida, the property has continued to struggle. Prior to 2007, the Naples area had experienced significant growth in the construction industry, but in 2007 construction halted due to oversupply and declining property values.  In efforts to avoid foreclosure, many private owners began competing with Low Income Housing Tax Credit properties by accepting Section 8 vouchers.  As no additional Section 8 vouchers were being provided to area residents, the market became extremely competitive as properties were vying for the same dwindling tenant base. Concessions increased dramatically and rental rates declined significantly. In addition, the tourism market has slowed, resulting in many service employees losing their jobs or seeing their hours reduced. As a result, evictions increased in the area as rents became unaffordable to many. Management at Laurel Ridge has reduced rents and is offering a one-month concession broken out over the first two months of a twelve-month lease. Although the property has been able to maintain occupancy above 90%, operations have remained below breakeven. Management is working with tenants to make payment arrangements in an effort to reduce bad debt and evictions. At the end of the first quarter of 2010, occupancy was 97% with below breakeven operations. The investment general partner will work with the operating general partner to reduce bad debt and ensure that all deficits are funded.  The low income housing tax credit compliance period expired on December 31, 2009. The mortgage, real estate taxes, and insurance payments are current.

Gallaway Associates is a 36-unit elderly property located in Gallaway, TN.  The property averaged 80% occupancy through the first half of 2009.  Management indicated that the low occupancy was due to a combination of the age and physical condition of the property, as well as the $550 utility deposit.  Management has alleviated the burden of the utility deposit by creating individual workout plans with each prospective tenant.  Each workout plan is dependent on the tenant’s ability to make additional monthly payments. The property has addressed the deteriorating physical conditions by infusing $18,000 from replacement reserves into unit restoration.  Unit restoration consists of replacement of outdated appliances, carpets, and doors.  All restoration took place throughout the first half of 2009.  Since management addressed these two prevailing property issues occupancy increased from a low of 69% in May 2009 to 100% by November 2009, with operations just above breakeven status.  Occupancy is averaging 98% through the first quarter of 2010 with operations remaining slightly above breakeven.  The mortgage payments, taxes, insurance, and accounts payable are all current.  On December 31, 2008, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired.

Newton I (Newton Plaza Apartments) is a 24-unit family development in Newton, Iowa.  Occupancy decreased in the second and third quarters of 2009 due to evictions for nonpayment of rent, but the property recovered and ended the year at 100% occupancy. The improved occupancy was due to increased marketing efforts and rental incentives.  Advertisements were posted on a weekly basis and flyiers were distributed by management. The high turnover resulted in higher than budgeted maintenance expenses in 2009, primarily for carpet and vinyl replacements, causing the property to operate below breakeven during the year.  Occupancy was 92% at the end of the first quarter of 2010, but the property continues to operate below breakeven due to high operating expenses. Operating cash flow is anticipated to gradually improve during 2010.

first quarter 2010 with March occupancy ending at 90%.

Preston Wood Associates, LP (Preston Wood Apartments) is a 62-unit property located in Bentonville, Arkansas. Occupancy has historically been an issue, dropping to an average of 47% in 2008.  In January 2009, the operating general partner brought in a new management company with prior success in the market. Since the new company has assumed management duties, deferred maintenance has been performed and physical improvements have been made in an effort to make the property more attractive.  In addition, new tenant programs and marketing outreach initiatives were introduced.  However, the property remains unable to effectively compete with newer properties in the area due to its age and the fact that it offers fewer amenities than its competitors. Further adding to marketing challenges is a road-widening project the City is performing in front of the property.  The property sign has been taken down and the construction activity limits drive-by traffic as the property entrance is typically blocked by construction equipment.  The City does not allow temporary banners, balloons, or other signs in front of the property. Roadwork on the side of the road closest to the community will be completed in the spring of 2010 but work on the opposite side of the road is not anticipated to be completed until 2011. At the end of the first quarter of 2010, occupancy was 69% and operations were below breakeven. The permanent debt matured in August 2009 and was initially extended to December 2009.  At the end of the fourth quarter 2009 the operating general partner confirmed that the mortgage was extended again to August 2012.  All deficits are being funded by the operating general partner. The investment general partner will continue to

Humboldt I, LP (Briarwood Apartments) is a 20-unit property located in Humboldt, IA.  Operations have struggled at this property for the past several years due to low occupancy and high maintenance expenses related to resident turnover.  Lack of cash flow has resulted in the replacement reserve not being funded to the required levels. Historical and ongoing challenges cited by management include problem tenants that require eviction, difficulty attracting quality tenants, and the poor state of the local economy.  Management relies heavily on outside contacts and referrals from the local housing authority, but also runs advertisements on a weekly basis in a free weekly advertiser that is distributed throughout town. Advertising has been expanded into surrounding towns to increase interest and rental incentives and discounts are being offered. Occupancy was 75% at the end of the first quarter of 2010.  Move-outs were mainly due to relocations.  The low occupancy and unit turnover resulted in the property operating below breakeven in 2009 and into the first quarter of 2010.  The replacement reserves account is underfunded due to the constant withdrawals of funds to finance capital expenditures and costs related to turnover.  A Servicing Workout Plan (SWP) was approved by Rural Development on September 28, 2009 and was intended to fully fund the replacement reserve, pay down accounts payable, and increase occupancy.  Quarterly meetings are being held as a means of tracking progress as part of the SWP.  A new site manager was hired in August 2009 to assist with the property’s overall improvement.  A site visit was conducted in October 2009 by the investment general partner.  The property was found to be in generally good condition.

 

Marengo Park Apartments LP (Marengo Park Apartments) is a 24-unit property located in Marengo Park, IA. Occupancy has historically been an issue for this property.  Occupancy was at 58% at the end of the first quarter of 2010.  The low occupancy was due to tenants vacating because of unemployment and evictions for nonpayment of rent. Management anticipates improvements in occupancy as a result of a new full time site manager who was recently hired. In addition to advertising weekly in a local newspaper, distributing fliers, and contacting local employers, the site manager is working with the local housing agencies to attract residents. Management has also revised advertising and started advertising on-line.  The property is operating slightly above breakeven as of the end of the first quarter.  Maintenance expenses remain relatively high.  Accounts payable are anticipated to be paid down as occupancy improves and rental income increases. The property is operating under an approved SWP dated March 3, 2009, which aims to fund the replacement reserves, make payables current, and resolve capital improvement issues.

In January 2010, the investment general partner transferred its interest in Maple Leaf Apartments LP to an entity affiliated with the operating general partner for its assumption of the outstanding mortgage balance of approximately $1,057,089 and cash proceeds to the investment limited partner of $0.  Of the total proceeds received, $0 will be returned to cash reserves held by Series 18.  The monies held in cash reserves will be utilized to pay current operating expenses, accrued but unpaid asset management fees, and accrued but unpaid expenses of the investment partnership.  After all outstanding obligations of the investment partnership are satisfied, any remaining monies will be distributed based on the number of BACs held by each investor at the time of distribution.  In addition, the investment general partner on behalf of the investment limited partnership entered into an agreement with the Operating Partnership for receipt of a residual payment, if any.  Under the terms of the residual agreement if the property owned by the Operating Partnership is refinanced or sold, on or before December 18, 2013, and cash proceeds are paid to the Operating Partnership as a result of such refinance or sale, there will be a payment of cash proceeds distributable to the investment limited partnership in accordance with the Operating Partnership Agreement in effect at the date the investment limited partnership transferred its interest. Annual losses generated by the Operating Partnership, which were applied against the investment limited partnership investment in the Operating Partnership in accordance with the equity method of accounting, had previously reduced the investment limited partnership investment in the Operating Partnership to zero. Accordingly, a gain on the sale of the Operating Partnership, net of the overhead and expense reimbursement, has been recorded in the amount of $0 as of March 31, 2010.

 

In May 2010, the investment general partner of Series 18 and Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund IV LP — Series 20, respectively, transferred their interests in Evergreen Hills Associates, Limited Partnership to an entity affiliated with the operating general partner for its assumption of the outstanding mortgage balance of approximately $2,635,694 and cash proceeds to the investment partnerships of $29,680 and $12,720 in Series 18 and Series 20, respectively. Of the total proceeds received, $22,680 and $9,720, for Series 18 and Series 20, respectively, represents reporting fees due to an affiliate of the investment partnerships and the balance represents proceeds from the transfer. Of the remaining proceeds, $ 7,000 and $3,000, for Series 18 and Series 20, respectively, will be paid to BCAMLP for expenses related to the transfer, which includes third party legal costs.  No proceeds were returned to cash reserves held by Series 18 and Series 20, respectively.  The monies held in cash reserves will be utilized to pay current operating expenses, accrued but unpaid asset management fees, and accrued but unpaid expenses of the investment partnership.  After all outstanding obligations of the investment partnership are satisfied, any remaining monies will be distributed based on the number of BACs held by each investor at the time of distribution.

 

(Series 19).  As of March 31, 2010 and 2009, the average Qualified Occupancy for the series was 100%.  The series had a total of 19 properties at March 31, 2010, all of which were at 100% Qualified Occupancy.

 

For the tax year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the series, in total, generated $(107,836) and $(2,154,784), respectively, in passive tax income (losses) that were passed through to the investors. All of the Operating Partnerships in the Series have completed their respective credit periods prior to the year ended December 31, 2008, and it is not expected that any additional tax credits will be generated.

 

As of March 31, 2010 and 2009, Investments in Operating Partnerships for Series 19 was $0.  Investments in Operating Partnerships are affected by the way the Fund accounts for these investments, the equity method.  By using the

equity method the Fund adjusts its investment cost for its share of each Operating Partnership’s results of operations and for any distributions received or accrued.

 

For the years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the net income (loss) for series 19 was $110,179 and $2,830,736, respectively. The major components of these amounts are the Fund’s share of income from Operating Partnership, impairments, and the fund management fee. The variances in net income is due to the income (losses) recorded from the dispositions of Operating Partnerships in the prior year.

 

Martindale Apartments, Ltd. (Martindale Apartments) is a 24-unit property located in Martindale, Texas.  In the past, inadequate rental rates did not cover normal operating expenses.  In 2008, Rural Development approved a rent increase of approximately $15 per unit. The increased rents caused resident turnover and occupancy decreased to an average 87% in 2008.  The property operated below breakeven in 2008 due to the low occupancy. In 2009 occupancy averaged 92%. Despite the improvement in occupancy, the property continued to operate below breakeven due to insufficient rental rates. Occupancy has improved in the first quarter of 2010 and is at 96% as of April 2010 and the property has operated above breakeven through the first quarter.  All real estate tax, mortgage, and insurance payments are current.  On December 31, 2008, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired. The investment general partner is in the process of exploring various disposition opportunities consistent with the investment objectives of the investment partnership.

 

Carrollton Villa, L.P. (Meadow Ridge Apartments) located in Carrollton, Missouri, has historically operated below breakeven, due to insufficient rental rates and few job opportunities in the property’s rural location. The property receives a grant from the State to enable the property to reduce the rents for the residents but not lose any income.  The grant is received annually and is valid through December 2010.  Despite occupancy that is consistently high, averaging 99% in 2008 and 97% in 2009, the property continues to operate below breakeven.  In addition to low rent levels, the property suffers from high operating expenses, specifically utilities.  According to management, the City of Carrollton has dramatically increased water and sewer billing rates to cover the cost of repairs to the water lines; per conversations with management, this cost is not expected to decline or return to historic levels.  Operations have remained consistent and below breakeven through the first quarter of 2010, with an average occupancy of 100%.  Fortunately, upon transfer of the operating general partner interests in 2004, the mortgage became a cash flow only mortgage, which has helped to reduce operating deficits.  The due dates for the primary and secondary mortgages were extended from December 2008 and November 2008 to December 2013 and November 2013, respectively.  In 2007, the Operating Partnership did not submit an audit by the State’s deadline, causing the property to be placed in non-compliance with Missouri Housing Development Corporation (MHDC).  The operating general partner chose to have the Operating Partnership issue a tax return, rather than an audit, since the LIHTC compliance period expired on December 31, 2009, and the property has historically operated at a deficit. In addition the property did not have the funds to perform an audit.  The operating general partner appealed MHDC’s audit requirement ruling, but his request was denied.  The 2007 and 2008 audits were finalized June 25, 2009, and the operating general partner worked with MHDC to enter the audits into the system.  This issue was resolved in the first quarter of 2010, and the property’s non-compliance status was lifted.  The real estate taxes, mortgage and insurance are all current.  Operating deficits have been funded through the operating general partner and the investment limited partner

contributions. On December 31, 2009, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired.  The investment general partner is in the process of exploring various disposition opportunities consistent with the investment objectives of the investment partnership.

 

Forest Associates Limited (Sharon Apartments) is a 24-unit apartment complex for families located in Forest, OH.  The operating general partner passed away in the second quarter of 2007 and his widow assumed the responsibilities. During 2008, communication with the new operating general partner became extremely difficult.  The operations declined and the property operated below breakeven for 2008 with occupancy ending at 63% for December 2008. During the first quarter of 2009, the investment general partner learned that the current management company’s contract had been terminated as of December 31, 2008. In addition, Rural Development has accelerated the note and started foreclosure proceedings.  Although the operating general partner appealed, the appeal was denied. The investment general partner learned of these developments from the real estate broker engaged by the operating general partner. There is a reputable operating general partner that is interested in acquiring the operating general partner and investment general partner interests.  We anticipate an offer by the third quarter of 2010. The affiliated management company of the potential operating general partner has already been placed on-site by Rural Development. The investment general partner met with the operating general partner in September in an effort to push forward the potential sale. The investment limited partner will continue to work with the potential incoming operating general partner and Rural Development until there is a resolution to the foreclosure proceedings. If the foreclosure were to take place in 2010 the Operating Partnership will experience estimated recapture and interest of $30,050, equivalent to $6 per 1,000 BACs. The 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expires at December 31, 2010.

 

Jeremy Associates, LP (Coopers Crossing Apartments) is a 93-unit family development located in Las Colinas, Texas.  In 2009, average occupancy was 95%; however, the property continued to operate below breakeven due to high operating expenses.  Occupancy continues to be strong and was 95% at the end of the first quarter of 2010.  Operating expenses are high mainly due to high maintenance costs as a result of severe physical deficiencies in a number of buildings on site.  Since construction, a number of the buildings have had differential settlement issues resulting in cracked floor slabs, cracked brick veneer, cracking windows and doors and sagging balconies.  These concerns have been addressed on an ongoing basis via advances by the operating general partner.  Despite high occupancy and cost control efforts including staffing reduction, reduced marketing and the shutting down of one boiler during warmer months, the property continued to operate below breakeven in 2009. The operating general partner continues to address settlement concerns by slab-jacking to stabilize movement.  All buildings are on-line and deferred maintenance does not appear to be an issue.  The operating general partner is actively repairing drywall cracks, adjusting sticking doors, and repainting impacted units. The operating general partner continues to fund operating deficits despite the expiration of the operating deficit guarantee.  So far the operating general partner has advanced over $1,800,000 for repairs and operating deficits. The mortgage, trade payables, property taxes and insurance are current. The low income housing tax credit compliance period will expire on December 31, 2010.

 

Sherwood Knoll L.P. (Sherwood Knoll Apartments) is a 24-unit project located in Rainsville, Alabama.  The property operated below breakeven in 2009 with an average occupancy of 89%. Occupancy at the end of the first quarter 2010 was 100% and the property continues to operate below breakeven. Management is

advertising in the local paper as well as posting fliers throughout the immediate area.  The operating deficit is being funded with a cash overdraft. The bank allows an overdraft in an unlimited amount and for an unlimited period without interest charges.  The replacement reserve was underfunded in 2008, but was fully funded in 2009.  The investment general partner will continue to work with the operating general partner to find ways to improve operations and position the property to operate back above breakeven status.  The operating deficit guarantee is unlimited in time and amount. On December 31, 2009, the 15-year low income housing tax credit compliance period expired. The investment general partner is in the process of exploring various disposition opportunities consistent with the investment objectives of the investment partnership.

 

Northpointe LP (Northpointe Apartments) is a 158-unit family property located in Kansas City, MO.  In 2009, despite average occupancy of 92% and a slight decrease in operating expenses, the property operated below breakeven. Rents have been kept below the maximum allowable to remain competitive with two nearby tax credit properties developed within the past five years.  Occupancy has improved to 94% as of March 2010, but rent levels remain insufficient to cover expenses. The operating general partner continues to fund deficits as needed.  The property’s mortgage, real estate taxes and insurance payments are all current.  The low income housing tax credit compliance period expired on December 31, 2009, and the investment limited partner is in the process of exploring various disposition opportunities consistent with the investment objectives of the partnership.

Principal Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require the Fund to make various estimates and assumptions.  The following section is a summary of some aspects of those accounting policies that may require subjective or complex judgments and are most important to the portrayal of the Fund’s financial condition and results of operations.  The Fund believes that there is a low probability that the use of different estimates or assumptions in making these judgments would result in materially different amounts being reported in the financial statements.

 

The Fund is required to assess potential impairments to its long-lived assets, which are primarily investments in limited partnerships.  The Fund accounts for its investment in limited partnerships in accordance with the equity method of accounting since the Fund does not control the operations of the Operating Partnerships. The purpose of an impairment analysis is to verify that the real estate investment balance reflected on the balance sheet does not exceed the value of the underlying investments.

 

If the book value of the Fund’s investment in an Operating Partnership exceeds the estimated value derived by management, which generally consists of the remaining future Low-Income Housing Credits allocable to the Fund and the estimated residual value to the Fund, the Fund reduces its investment in the Operating Partnership and includes this reduction in equity in loss of investment of limited partnerships.

 

GAAP provides guidance on when a company should include the assets, liabilities, and activities of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in its financial statements and when it should disclose information about its relationship with a VIE.  A VIE is a legal structure used to conduct activities or hold assets, which must be consolidated by a company if it is the primary beneficiary because it absorbs the majority of the entity’s expected losses, the majority of the expected returns, or both.

 

Based on this guidance, the Operating Partnerships in which the Fund invests meet the definition of a VIE.  However, management does not consolidate the Fund’s interests in these VIEs under this guidance, as it is not considered to be the primary beneficiary.  The Fund currently records the amount of its investment in these partnerships as an asset on its balance sheet, recognizes its share of partnership income or losses in the statements of operations, and discloses how it accounts for material types of these investments in its financial statements.

 

The Fund’s balance in investment in Operating Partnerships, plus the risk of recapture of tax credits previously recognized on these investments, represents its maximum exposure to loss.  The Fund’s exposure to loss on these partnerships is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the underlying properties as well as the strength of the local general partners and their guarantee against credit recapture.

Recent Accounting Changes

 

In June 2006, accounting guidance for Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of the accounting guidance for Accounting for Income Taxes, was issued.  This requires all taxpayers to analyze all material positions they have taken or plan to take in all tax returns that have been filed or should have been filed with all taxing authorities for all years still subject to challenge by those taxing authorities. The Fund has elected to be treated as a pass-through entity for income tax purposes and, as such, is not subject to income taxes.  Rather, all items of taxable income, deductions and tax credits are passed through to and are reported by its owners on their respective income tax returns.  The Fund’s federal tax status as a pass-through entity is based on its legal status as a Partnership.  Accordingly, the Fund is not required to take any tax positions in order to qualify as a pass-through entity.  The Fund is required to file and does file tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities.  Accordingly, these financial statements do not reflect a provision for income taxes and the Fund has no other tax positions which must be considered for disclosure.

 

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued accounting guidance for Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. This guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and shall be applied prospectively except for very limited transactions.  In February 2008, the FASB delayed for one year implementation of the guidance as it pertains to certain non-financial assets and liabilities. The Fund adopted GAAP for Fair Value Measurements effective April 1, 2008, except as it applies to those non-financial assets and liabilities, for which the effective date was April 1, 2009. The Fund has determined that adoption of this guidance has no material impact on the Fund’s financial statements.

 

In February 2007, the FASB issued accounting guidance for The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This guidance permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.  The fair value election is designed to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. It is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  On April 1, 2008, the Fund adopted GAAP for The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities and elected not to apply the provisions to its eligible financial assets and financial liabilities on the date of adoption. Accordingly, the initial application of the guidance had no effect on the Fund.

 

In November 2008, the FASB issued accounting guidance on Equity Method Investment Accounting Considerations that addresses how the initial carrying value of an equity method investment should be determined, how an impairment assessment of an underlying indefinite-lived intangible asset of an equity method investment should be performed, how an equity method investee’s issuance of shares should be accounted for, and how to account for a change in an investment from the equity method to the cost method. This guidance is effective in fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Fund adopted the guidance for the interim quarterly period beginning April 1, 2009. The impact of adopting it does not have a material impact on the Fund’s financial condition or results of operations.

Recent Accounting Changes - continued

 

In April 2009, the FASB issued accounting guidance for Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments.  This requires disclosure about the method and significant assumptions used to establish the fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods as well as annual statements.  It became effective for Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund III L.P. as of and for the interim period ended June 30, 2009 and has no impact on the Fund’s financial condition or results of operations.

 

In May 2009, the FASB issued guidance regarding subsequent events, which was subsequently updated in February 2010. This guidance established general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. In particular, this guidance sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements, and the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. This guidance was effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods ending after June 15, 2009, and was therefore adopted by the Fund for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The adoption did not have a significant impact on the subsequent events that the Fund reports, either through recognition or disclosure, in the financial statements. In February 2010, the FASB amended its guidance on subsequent events to remove the requirement to disclose the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events, alleviating conflicts with current SEC guidance. This amendment was effective immediately and therefore the Company did not include the disclosure in this Form 10-K.

 

In June 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting and disclosure requirements for the consolidation of variable interest entities (VIEs).  The amended guidance modifies the consolidation model to one based on control and economics, and replaces the current quantitative primary beneficiary analysis with a qualitative analysis. The primary beneficiary of a VIE will be the entity that has (1) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE.  If multiple unrelated parties share such power, as defined, no party will be required to consolidate the VIE. Further, the amended guidance requires continual reconsideration of the primary beneficiary of a VIE and adds an additional reconsideration event for determination of whether an entity is a VIE.  Additionally, the amendment requires enhanced and expanded disclosures around VIEs.  This amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009.  The adoption of this guidance on April 1, 2010 is not expected to have a material effect on the Fund’s financial statements.

 

In June 2009, the FASB issued the Accounting Standards Codification (Codification).  Effective July 1, 2009, the Codification is the single source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by non-governmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP.  The Codification is intended to reorganize, rather than change, existing GAAP.  Accordingly, all references to currently existing GAAP have been removed and have been replaced with plain English explanations of the Fund’s accounting policies.  The adoption of the Codification did not have a material impact on the Fund’s financial position or results of operations.

(a)

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Fund’s general partner, under the supervision and with the participation of the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer of C&M Management, Inc., carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Fund’s “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15. Based on that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Fund’s disclosure controls and procedures were adequate and effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Fund required to be included in the Fund’s periodic SEC filings.

 

 

 

 

(b)

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

 

Management of the Fund is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). The Fund’s internal control system over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Fund’s management regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

Due to inherent limitations, an internal control system over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

 

The Fund’s general partner, under the supervision and with the participation of the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer of Boston Capital Associates III LP, assessed the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal controls and procedures over financial reporting as of March 31, 2010. In making this assessment, the Fund’s management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, management believes that, as of March 31, 2010, the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting was effective.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Fund’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Fund’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Fund to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

 

 

 

 

(c)

Changes in Internal Controls

 

 

There were no changes in the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2010 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting.
