1.           ORGANIZATION

Capital Realty Investors, Ltd. (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership which was formed under the District of Columbia Limited Partnership Act on June 1, 1981.  The Partnership was formed for the purpose of raising capital by offering and selling limited partnership interests and then investing in limited partnerships ("Local Partnerships"), each of which owns and operates an existing rental housing project which was originally financed and/or operated with one or more forms of rental assistance or financial assistance from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD"). The Partnership originally made investments in eighteen Local Partnerships.  As of March 31, 2012, the Partnership retained investments in six Local Partnerships.

The General Partners of the Partnership are C.R.I., Inc. (“CRI”), which is the Managing General Partner, current and former shareholders of CRI and Rockville Pike Associates, Ltd., a Maryland limited partnership, which includes the shareholders of CRI and certain former officers and employees of CRI.  Services for the Partnership are performed by CRI, as the Partnership has no employees of its own.


2.           BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q.  Certain information and accounting policies and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in conformity with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such instructions.  These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Partnership's annual report on Form 10-K at December 31, 2011.

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other bodies that may have an impact on the Partnership’s financial reporting or accounting. The Partnership does not believe that any such recently issued pronouncement has had or will have a material effect on the Partnership’s financial statements.

In the opinion of CRI, the Managing General Partner of the Partnership, the accompanying unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of the Partnership as of March 31, 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.  The results of operations for the interim period ended March 31, 2012, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.


3.           INVESTMENTS IN AND ADVANCES TO PARTNERSHIPS
 
At March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Partnership had limited partnership equity interests in six Local Partnerships, each of which owned an apartment complex.

Cash distributions received from Local Partnerships which have investment basis (equity method) are recorded as a reduction of investments in partnerships and as cash receipts on the respective balance sheets.  Cash distributions received from Local Partnerships which have cumulative losses in excess of the amount of the Partnership’s investments in those Local Partnerships (equity method suspended) are recorded as share of income from partnerships on the respective statements of operations and as cash receipts on the respective balance sheets.  As of March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Partnership's share of cumulative losses to date for three of six and four of six Local Partnerships, exceeded the amount of the Partnership's investments in those Local Partnerships by $3,343,037 and $4,708,209, respectively.  As the Partnership has no further obligation to advance funds or provide financing to these Local Partnerships, the excess losses have not been reflected in the accompanying financial statements.

b.           Advances to Local Partnerships

As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Partnership had advanced funds, including accrued interest, totaling $0 and $1,008,738, respectively, to ARA Associates-Shangri-La Ltd. (Shallowford Oaks).  On April 15, 2010, the Partnership advanced $100,000 to Shallowford Oaks for operating expenses.  For financial reporting purposes, these loans have been reduced to zero by the Partnership as a result of losses at the Local Partnership level during prior years.  As a result, the amount advanced has been reflected as a reduction of share of income from the Partnership in 2011.

On December 19, 2002, the Local Partnership which owned the Baltic Plaza apartments sold the property. Cash proceeds received by the Partnership totaled $2,053,358.  As part of the consideration, the Local Partnership took back a 30-year purchase money note in the principal amount of $2,300,000, collateralized by the partnership interests of the general partner of the maker/purchaser.  The Local Partnership assigned the purchase money note to an escrow for the benefit of its partners (with CRI serving as escrow agent), so that the Local Partnership entity could be dissolved.  The purchase money note bears interest at 4.6% compounded annually, and requires a minimum annual payment equal to 50% of the maker/purchaser’s annual audited cash flow, as defined, with the balance of unpaid principal, if any, plus accrued interest, due and payable on December 31, 2032.  As of March 31, 2012, no payments of principal or interest have been received on this purchase money note.  The Partnership’s 98% beneficial interest in this purchase money note is reflected in the accompanying balance sheets at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, at its original principal balance of $2,300,000 plus estimated accrued but unpaid interest, all discounted to $619,000 to provide for an effective interest rate commensurate with the investment risk.  The resulting discounted amount has been fully reserved due to uncertainty of collection of the purchase money note and related interest.

c.           Investment Reconciliation

The following is a reconciliation of investments in partnerships at December 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012.

5.           CASH DISTRIBUTIONS

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2012, the Partnership had not received cash flow distributions from the Local Partnerships.

8.           SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements were available to be issued must be evaluated for recognition or disclosure. The effects of subsequent events that provide evidence about conditions that existed at the balance sheet date are recognized in the accompanying financial statements. Subsequent events which provide evidence about conditions that existed after the balance sheet date require disclosure in the accompanying notes.  The following events required disclosure in the financial statements:

On May 8, 2012, the Partnership entered into an assignment and assumption agreement to assign all of its rights, title, and interests in Hillview Terrace in exchange for $299,990. The Partnership’s investment basis in this Local Partnership at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $0. The Partnership expects to receive $248,716 as a result of this assumption.

On May 15, 2012, the Partnership entered into an option agreement to sell Capitol Commons Senior Apartments for $9,500,000. The Partnership’s investment basis in this Local Partnership at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $4,419,186 and $4,186,351, respectively. The Partnership expects to receive $6,257,353 as a result of the sale.

Part I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
 
and Results of Operations
 
              
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section is based on the financial statements, and contains information that may be considered forward looking, including statements regarding the effect of governmental regulations.  Actual results may differ materially from those described in the forward looking statements and will be affected by a variety of factors including national and local economic conditions, the general level of interest rates, governmental regulations affecting the Partnership and interpretations of those regulations, the competitive environment in which the Partnership operates, and the availability of working capital.

 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 

The Partnership has disclosed its selection and application of significant accounting policies in Note 1 of the notes to financial statements included in the Partnership’s annual report on Form 10-K at December 31, 2011.  The Partnership accounts for its investments in partnerships (Local Partnerships) by the equity method because the Partnership is a limited partner in the Local Partnerships.  As such the Partnership has no control over the selection and application of accounting policies, or the use of estimates, by the Local Partnerships.  Environmental and operational trends, events and uncertainties that might affect the properties owned by the Local Partnerships would not necessarily have a significant impact on the Partnership’s application of the equity method of accounting, since the equity method has been suspended for two Local Partnerships which have cumulative losses in excess of the amount of the Partnership’s investments in those Local Partnerships. The Partnership reviews property assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable.  Recoverability is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  If an asset were determined to be impaired, its basis would be adjusted to fair value through the recognition of an impairment loss.

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.  Generally, a variable interest entity, or VIE, is an entity with one or more of the following characteristics:  (a) the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support; (b) as a group the holders of the equity investment at risk lack (i) the ability to make decisions about an entity’s activities through voting or similar rights, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity; or (c) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportional to their economic interests and substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve, or are conducted on behalf of, an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights.  The primary beneficiary of a VIE is generally the entity that will receive a majority of the VIE’s expected losses, receive a majority of a VIE’s expected residual returns, or both.

The Partnership does not consolidate the Partnership's interests in these VIE’s under this guidance, as it is not considered to be the primary beneficiary.  Accounting guidance requires continued reconsideration as to the consideration of the primary beneficiary. The Partnership 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 Partnership’s balance in investment in Local Partnerships represents its maximum exposure to loss.  The Partnership’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.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
 
and Results of Operations - Continued

Financial Condition/Liquidity

The Partnership's liquidity, with unrestricted cash resources of $2,061,135 as of March 31, 2012, along with anticipated future cash distributions from the Local Partnerships, is expected to be adequate to meet its current and anticipated operating cash needs.  As of August 29, 2012, there were no material commitments for capital expenditures.

The Partnership closely monitors its cash flow and liquidity position in an effort to ensure that sufficient cash is available for operating requirements.  For the three month period ended March 31, 2012, existing cash resources were adequate to support net cash used in operating activities.  Cash and cash equivalents decreased $133,732 during the three month period ended March 31, 2012, primarily due to operating costs.

Results of Operations

The Partnership recognized an increase in the net income of $134,166 for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the three month period ended March 31, 2011, primarily due to an increase in the share of income from Local Partnerships and a reduction in professional fees.

For financial reporting purposes, the Partnership, as a limited partner in the Local Partnerships, does not record losses from the Local Partnerships in excess of its investment to the extent that the Partnership has no further obligation to advance funds or provide financing to the Local Partnerships.  As a result, the Partnership's share of income from Local Partnerships for the three month period ended March 31, 2012, did not include losses of $4,775, compared to excluded losses of $16,115 for the three month period ended March 31, 2011.

No other significant changes in the Partnership's operations have taken place during the three month period ended March 31, 2012.

Certain states may assert claims against the Partnership for failure to withhold and remit state income tax on operating profit or where the sale(s) of property in which the Partnership was invested failed to produce sufficient cash proceeds with which to pay the state tax and/or to pay statutory partnership filing fees.  The Partnership is unable to quantify the amount of such potential claims at this time. The Partnership has consistently advised its Partners that they should consult with their tax advisors as to the necessity of filing non-resident returns in such states with respect to their proportional taxes due.

Item 4.
Controls and Procedures
 
 
a)           Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

The Partnership’s management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Managing General Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report.  A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.  Based on such evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Managing General Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as a result of insufficient accounting systems and processes in place to ensure timely reports.  

The Partnership must rely on the Local Limited Partnerships to provide the Partnership with certain information necessary for the timely filing of the Partnership’s periodic reports. Factors in the accounting at the Local Limited Partnerships have caused delays in the provision of such information during past reporting periods, and resulted in the Partnership’s inability to file its periodic reports in a timely manner.

Once the Partnership has received the necessary information from the Local Limited Partnerships, the Partnership’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer believe that the material information required to be disclosed in the Partnership’s periodic report filings with SEC is effectively recorded, processed, summarized and reported, albeit not in a timely manner. Going forward, the Partnership will use the means reasonably within its power to impose procedures designed to obtain from the Local Limited Partnerships the information necessary for the timely filing of the Partnership’s periodic reports.

b)            Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

There has been no change in the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.
 
Part II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.
Legal Proceedings
   
 
The Partnership is unaware of any pending or outstanding litigation involving it or the underlying investment property of the Local Partnerships in which the Partnership invests that are not of a routine nature arising in the ordinary course of business or that would have a material adverse effect on the business.

Item 5.
Other Information
   

There has not been any information required to be disclosed in a report on Form 8-K during the quarter ended March 31, 2012, but not reported, whether or not otherwise required by this Form 10-Q at March 31, 2012.

There is no established market for the purchase and sale of units of limited partner interest (Units) in the Partnership, although various informal secondary market services exist.  Due to the limited markets, however, investors may be unable to sell or otherwise dispose of their Units.
