NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2009

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Line of Business:  New England Realty Associates Limited Partnership (“NERA” or the “Partnership”) was organized in Massachusetts in 1977. NERA and its subsidiaries own and operate various residential apartment buildings, condominium units and commercial properties located in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. NERA has also made investments in other real estate partnerships and has participated in other real estate-related activities, primarily located in Massachusetts.

Accounting Standards: On July 1, 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued the FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, also known as FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 105-10, General Accepted Accounting Principles (“ASC 105-10”).  ASC 105-10 established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”) as the single source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities.  Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants.  The Codification supersedes all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards.  All other non -grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become non-authoritative.  Following the Codification, the FASB will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts.  Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates, which will serve to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the basis for conclusions on the changes to the Codification.  GAAP was not intended to be changed as a result of the FASB’s Codification project, but it will change the way the guidance is organized and presented.  As a result, these changes will have a significant impact on how companies reference GAAP in their financial statements and in their accounting policies for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.  The Partnership has implemented the Codification in this quarterly report by providing references to the Codification topics, as appropriate.

Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NERA and its subsidiaries. NERA has a 99.67% to 100% ownership interest in each subsidiary except for the eight limited liability companies (the “Investment Properties” or “Joint Ventures”) in which the Partnership has a 50% ownership interest. The consolidated group is referred to as the “Partnerships.” Minority interests are not recorded, since they are insignificant. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. The Partnership accounts for its investment in the above-mentioned Investment Properties using the equity method of consolidation. (See Note 14: Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures).

The Partnership accounts for its investments in joint ventures using the equity method of accounting. These investments are recorded initially at cost, as Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures, and subsequently adjusted for equity in earnings and cash contributions and distributions. The authoritative guidance on consolidation provides guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights (“variable interest entities” or “VIEs”) and the determination of which business enterprise, if any, should consolidate the VIE (the “primary beneficiary”).  Generally, the consideration of whether an entity is a VIE applies when either (1) the equity investors (if any) lack one or more of the essential characteristics of a controlling financial interest, (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support or (3) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests and the activities of the entity involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest.

Impairment:  On an annual basis management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the Partnership’s rental properties or investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries may be impaired.  A property’s value is impaired only if management’s estimate of the aggregate future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) to be generated by the property is less than the carrying value of the property.  To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss shall be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the property over the fair value of the property.  The Company’s estimates of aggregate future cash flows expected to be generated by each property are based on a number of assumptions that are subject to

7

Table of Contents

economic and market uncertainties including, among others, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and costs to operate each property.  As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management’s assumptions, the future cash flows estimated by management in its impairment analyses may not be achieved. The Partnership has not recognized an impairment loss since 1995.

Accounting Estimates: The preparation of the financial statements, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United State of America, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition:  Rental income from residential and commercial properties is recognized over the term of the related lease. For residential tenants, amounts 60 days in arrears are charged against income. The commercial tenants are evaluated on a case by case basis. Certain leases of the commercial properties provide for increasing stepped minimum rents, which are accounted for on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Concessions made on residential leases are also accounted for on the straight-line basis.

Rental Properties:  Rental properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; improvements and additions are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost of the asset and related accumulated depreciation is eliminated from the accounts, and any gain or loss on such disposition is included in income. Fully depreciated assets are removed from the accounts. Rental properties are depreciated by both straight-line and accelerated methods over their estimated useful lives. Significant acquisitions with long term leases are evaluated to determine if a portion of the purchase price is allocable to intangibles such as non market rate rents.

In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a rental property may be impaired, an analysis of the value is prepared. The estimated future undiscounted cash flows are compared to the asset’s carrying value to determine if a write-down to fair value is required.

Financing and Leasing Fees: Financing fees are capitalized and amortized, using the interest method, over the life of the related mortgages. Leasing fees are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the related lease. Unamortized balances are expensed when the corresponding fee is no longer applicable.

Income Taxes: The financial statements have been prepared on the basis that NERA and its subsidiaries are entitled to tax treatment as partnerships. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded.

Cash Equivalents: The Partnership considers cash equivalents to be all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less.

Segment Reporting: Operating segments are revenue-producing components of the Partnership for which separate financial information is produced internally for management. Under the definition, NERA operated, for all periods presented, as one segment.

Comprehensive Income: Comprehensive income is defined as changes in partners’ equity, exclusive of transactions with owners (such as capital contributions and dividends). NERA did not have any comprehensive income items in 2009 or 2008 other than net income as reported.

Income Per Unit: Net income per unit has been calculated based upon the weighted average number of units outstanding during each period presented. The Partnership has no dilutive units and, therefore, basic net income is the same as diluted net income per unit (see Note 7).

Concentration of Credit Risks and Financial Instruments: The Partnership’s properties are located in New England, and the Partnership is subject to the general economic risks related thereto. No single tenant accounted for more than 5% of the Partnership’s revenues in 2009 or 2008. The Partnership makes its temporary cash investments with high-credit-quality financial institutions. At September 30, 2009, substantially all of the Partnership’s cash and cash equivalents were held in interest-bearing accounts at financial institutions, earning interest at rates from 0.05 % to 1.44 %.  At September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively approximately $4,723,000 and $10,300,000 of cash and cash equivalents, and cash included in prepaid expenses and other assets exceeded federally insured amounts.

Table of Contents

Advertising Expense: Advertising is expensed as incurred. Advertising expense was $58,884 and $80,224 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Discontinued Operations and Rental Property Held for Sale:  When assets are identified by management as held for sale, the Partnership discontinues depreciating the assets and estimates the sales price, net of selling costs, of such assets. If, in management’s opinion, the net sales price of the assets which have been identified as held for sale is less than the net book value of the assets, a valuation allowance is established. Properties identified as held for sale and/or sold are presented in discontinued operations for all periods presented.

If circumstances arise that previously were considered unlikely and, as a result, the Partnership decides not to sell a property previously classified as held for sale, the property is reclassified as held and used. A property that is reclassified is measured and recorded individually at the lower of (a) its carrying amount before the property was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation (amortization) expense that would have been recognized had the property been continuously classified as held and used, or (b) the fair value at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell.

Interest Capitalized: The Partnership follows the policy of capitalizing interest as a component of the cost of rental property when the time of construction exceeds one year. During the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and the year ended December 31, 2008, there was no capitalized interest.

Extinguishment of Debt: When existing mortgages are refinanced with the same lender and it is determined that the refinancing is substantially different then they will be recorded as an extinguishment of debt.  However if it is determined that the refinancing is substantially the same then they will be recorded as an exchange of debt. All refinancings qualify as extinguishment of debt.

Reclassifications:  Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts in order to conform to current period presentation.

Subsequent Events:  The Partnership has evaluated subsequent events through November 6, 2009, the date the financial statements were issued.

NOTE 2. RENTAL PROPERTIES

As of September 30, 2009, the Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships owned 2,269 residential apartment units in 19 residential and mixed-use complexes (collectively, the “Apartment Complexes”). The Partnership also owns 19 condominium units in a residential condominium complex, all of which are leased to residential tenants (collectively referred to as the “Condominium Units”). The Apartment Complexes and Condominium Units are located primarily in the metropolitan Boston area of Massachusetts.

Additionally, as of September 30, 2009, the Partnership and Subsidiary Partnerships owned a commercial shopping center in Framingham, commercial buildings in Newton and Brookline and mixed-use properties in Boston, Brockton and Newton, all in Massachusetts. These properties are referred to collectively as the “Commercial Properties.”

The Partnership also owned a 50% ownership interest in eight residential and mixed use complexes (the “Investment Properties”) at September 30, 2009 with a total of 392 units, accounted for using the equity method of consolidation. See Note 14 for summary information on these investments.

Rental properties consist of the following:

Table of Contents

On January 3, 2008, the Partnership sold the Oak Ridge Apartments, a 61-unit residential apartment complex located in Foxboro, Massachusetts. The sale price was $7,150,000, which resulted in a gain of approximately $6,000,000.  In November 2007, the Partnership purchased a fully occupied commercial building located in Newton, Massachusetts, known as Linewt LLC. The purchase price was $3,475,000 and the building consists of 5,850 square feet of commercial space. The Partnership utilized Section 1031 of the IRS code to affect a tax free exchange on the gain of Oak Ridge up to the purchase price of the Newton property. In accordance with Section 1031, the Newton property was owned by a Qualified Intermediary for the period from the purchase date of the Newton property and the sale date of the Foxboro property. The Qualified Intermediary borrowed $3,225,112 from Harold Brown, Treasurer of the General Partner, to purchase the Newton property. This loan was paid in full, with interest at 6% of $34,401, from the proceeds of the Oak Ridge sale on January 3, 2008. On January 22, 2008, the Partnership financed the Newton property with a first mortgage of $1,700,000 at 5.75% interest only until maturity in January 2018.

In April 2008, the Partnership sold the Coach Apartments, a 48 unit residential apartment complex located in Acton, Massachusetts. The sale price was $4,600,000, which resulted in a gain of approximately $3,800,000 and recorded in the second quarter of 2008.  In October 2008, the Partnership purchased a fully occupied medical office building located in Brookline, Massachusetts, referred to as “the Barn.” The purchase price of the Barn was $7,000,000 and it consists 20,000 square feet of commercial space.  The Partnership utilized Section 1031 of the IRS code to affect a tax free exchange on the gain of Coach up to the purchase price of the Barn.  This acquisition was funded from the assumption of the existing mortgage of approximately $4,000,000, the cash from the sale of Coach of approximately $2,600,000, and the balance of $400,000 was funded from cash reserves.

As more fully described in Note 3, the Partnership sold the five condominiums located in Brookline, Massachusetts in 2008. The net proceeds from the sale of the five units were approximately $740,000 which resulted in a gain of approximately $240,000, which is included in gain from the sale of rental properties in the second and third quarter of 2008.

NOTE 3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Partnership’s properties are managed by an entity that is owned by the majority shareholder of the General Partner. The management fee is equal to 4% of rental revenue and laundry income. Total fees paid were approximately $1,012,000 and $976,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

The Partnership Agreement permits the General Partner or management company to charge the costs of professional services (such as counsel, accountants and contractors) to NERA. During the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, approximately $597,000 and $412,000 was charged to NERA for legal, accounting, construction, maintenance, rental and architectural services and supervision of capital improvements.  Of the 2009 expenses referred to above, approximately $310,000 consisted of repairs and maintenance and $250,000 of administrative expense. Approximately $37,000 of expenses for construction, architectural services and supervision of capital projects were capitalized in rental properties. Additionally in 2009, the Hamilton Company received approximately $301,000 from the Investment Properties of which approximately $201,000 was the management fee, approximately $3,800 was for construction supervision and architectural fees, approximately $79,000 was for maintenance services and approximately $17,000 was for administrative services.

On January 1, 2004, all employees were transferred to the management company’s payroll. The Partnership reimburses the management company for the payroll and related expenses of the employees who work at the properties. Total reimbursement was approximately $1,680,000 and $1,672,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The Management Company maintains a 401K plan for all eligible employees whereby the employees may contribute the maximum allowed by law. The plan also provides for discretionary contributions by the employer. There were no employer contributions in 2009 and 2008.

In 1996, prior to becoming an employee and President of the Management Company, the current President of the Management Company performed asset management consulting services to the Partnership. This individual continues to

10

perform this service and receives an asset management fee from the Partnership, receiving $37,500 during the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008.

The Partnership has invested in eight limited partnerships, which have invested in mixed use residential apartment complexes. The Partnership has a 50% ownership interest in each investment. The other investors are Harold Brown, the President of the Management Company and five other employees of the Management Company. Harold Brown’s ownership interest is between 43.2% and 47.5%, with the balance of 6.8% and 2.5% owned by others. See Note 14 for a description of the properties and their operations.

On June 30, 2003, the Partnership purchased five condominium units in a 42-unit building located in Brookline, Massachusetts. These were purchased from Harvard 45 Associates LLC (“Harvard 45”) which is owned 70% by the 75% shareholder and treasurer of the General Partner, and 5% by the President of Hamilton. The total purchase price for these condominiums was approximately $2,416,000 and was approved both by the Partnership’s Advisory Committee and the General Partner. Harvard 45 realized a gain of approximately $648,000 from these sales. Harvard 45 also sold 16 units to unrelated parties; the prices for all 21 units sold were comparable.  The Partnership sold all of these units in 2008 and realized a gain of approximately $240,000.  The above mentioned gains are recorded as gain on the sale of real estate from discontinued operations.   In addition, the Partnership paid The Hamilton Company or its affiliate approximately $16,000 in legal fees and approximately $62,000 in commissions in connection with the sale of these condominiums in 2008.

The above 42-unit condominium building was managed by an entity wholly owned by the 25% shareholder and President of the General Partner. That entity received annual management fees from the five units of approximately $1,500, and Hamilton reduced its management fees to approximately 2%, so that the total management fee will not exceed the 4% allowed by the Partnership’s Partnership Agreement.

In March 2005, the Partnership sold the Middlesex Apartments to an entity wholly owned by the majority shareholder of the General Partner. The selling price was $6,500,000 which resulted in a capital gain for the Partnership of approximately $5,800,000 and an increase in the Partnership’s cash reserves of approximately $4,800,000 after paying off the existing $1,300,000 mortgage, prepayment penalties and other selling expenses. The buyer sold the property as condominium units. An entity 31% owned by the majority shareholder of the General Partner and 5% owned by the President of the management company was the sales agent and received a variable commission of 3% to 5% on each sale. Total commissions paid were approximately $138,000.  Although the buyer assumed the costs and economic risks of converting and selling the condominium units, if the net gain from the sale of these units exceeded $500,000, the excess were to be split equally between the buyer and Partnership.  The last remaining unit was sold in October 2008, which resulted in a gain of approximately $50,000.

On September 17, 2008, the Partnership completed the issuance of an aggregate of 6,642 Class A Units held in treasury to current holders of Class B and General Partner Units upon the simultaneous retirement to treasury of 6,309 Class B Units and 333 General Partner Units pursuant to an equity distribution plan authorized by the Board of Directors of the General Partner on August 8, 2008 and as further described under Item 3.02 of the Partnership’s Current Report on Form 8-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 18, 2008, which is incorporated herein by reference. Harold Brown, the treasurer of the General Partner, owns 75% of the issued and outstanding Class B Units of the Partnership and 75% of the issued and outstanding equity of the General Partner, Ronald Brown, the brother of Harold Brown and the president of the General Partner, owns 25% of the issued and outstanding Class B Units of the Partnership and 25% of the issued and outstanding equity of the General Partner.

In 2008, the Partnership borrowed a total of approximately $8,510,000 from Harold Brown.  Approximately $5,285,000 was used to repurchase depositary receipts and approximately $3,225,000 was used to facilitate the purchase of Linewt.  These loans were repaid in 2008 with interest of approximately $72,300.

See Note 17 — Subsequent Events for information about a $7.8 million loan from HBC Holdings, LLC.

NOTE 5. MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE

At September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the mortgages payable consisted of various loans, all of which were secured by first mortgages on properties referred to in Note 2. At September 30, 2009, the fixed interest rates on these loans ranged from 4.84% to 8.46%, payable in monthly installments aggregating approximately $727,000, including principal, to various dates through 2023. The majority of the mortgages are subject to prepayment penalties.  At September 30, 2009, the weighted average interest rate on the above mortgages was 5.63%. The effective rate of 5.72% includes the amortization expense of deferred financing costs. See Note 12 for fair value information.

The Partnerships have pledged tenant leases as additional collateral for certain of these loans.

Approximate annual maturities at September 30, 2009 are as follows:

In January 2008, the Partnership obtained a $1,700,000 mortgage on an unencumbered commercial property in Newton, Massachusetts known as Linewt LLC. The mortgage which matures in January 2018 requires interest only payments at 5.75% for the term of the mortgage.

In February 2008, the Partnership refinanced ten properties with outstanding 8.44% mortgages of approximately $37,800,000 with new mortgages totaling $58,000,000. The new mortgages which mature in February 2023 require interest only payments at interest rates from 5.6% to 5.7%. Deferred costs associated with these mortgages totaled approximately $710,000 and, accordingly, the effective interest rates are 5.7% to 5.8%. Prepayment penalties of approximately $3,700,000 were incurred in these transactions. After payment of existing mortgages, prepayment penalties and other costs of the transactions, approximately $16,000,000 was received by the Partnership.

In April 2008, the Partnership refinanced the property located at 659 Worcester Road with a mortgage balance of approximately $3,500,000 at 7.84% with a new $6,000,000 mortgage at 5.97% interest only mortgage which matures in March 2018. Deferred financing costs associated with this mortgage totaled approximately $86,000 and accordingly the effective interest rate is 6.1%. Prepayment penalties of approximately $783,000 were incurred in this transaction.  After payment of the existing mortgage and prepayment penalties, approximately $1,700,000 was received by the Partnership.

In June 2008, the Partnership refinanced the Westside Colonial Apartments with a balance of approximately $4,600,000 maturing in 2008 with interest at a rate of 6.52% with $7,000,000 at 5.66% interest only mortgage maturing in June 2023. Deferred financing costs associated with this mortgage totaled approximately $62,000 and accordingly the effective interest rate is 5.8%.  Closing costs were approximately $100,000. There were no prepayment penalties. After payment of the existing mortgage and closing costs, approximately $2,377,000 was received by the Partnership.

See Note 17 — Subsequent Events for refinancing of Linhart Limited Partnership.

NOTE 6. ADVANCE RENTAL PAYMENTS AND SECURITY DEPOSITS

The Partnership’s residential lease agreements may require tenants to maintain a one-month advance rental payment and/or a security deposit. At September 30, 2009, amounts received for prepaid rents of approximately $1,426,000 are included in cash and cash equivalents, and security deposits of approximately $1,406,000 are included in other assets.

NOTE 7. PARTNERS’ CAPITAL

The Partnership has two classes of Limited Partners (Class A and B) and one category of General Partner. Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, distributions to holders of Class B Units and General Partnership Units must represent 19% and 1%, respectively, of the total units outstanding. All classes have equal profit sharing and distribution rights, in proportion to their ownership interests.

In 2009 the Partnership approved quarterly distributions of $7.00 per unit ($0.70 per receipt) payable on March 31, June 30, and September 30, 2009.

In 2008, the Partnership paid quarterly distributions of $7.00 per unit ($.70 per receipt) in March, June, September, and December for a total distribution of $28.00 per unit ($2.80 per receipt).

The Partnership has entered into a deposit agreement with an agent to facilitate public trading of limited partners’ interests in Class A Units. Under the terms of this agreement, the holders of Class A Units have the right to exchange each Class A Unit for 10 Depositary Receipts. The following is information per Depositary Receipt:

NOTE 8. TREASURY UNITS

NOTE 12. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Partnership in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments:

·                  For cash and cash equivalents, other assets, investment in partnerships, accounts payable, advance rents and security deposits: fair value approximates the carrying value of such assets and liabilities.

·                  For mortgage notes payable: fair value is generally based on estimated future cash flows, which are discounted using the quoted market rate from an independent source for similar obligations. Refer to the table below for the carrying amount and estimated fair value of such instruments.

Disclosure about fair value of financial instruments is based on pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since December 31, 2008 and current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.

NOTE 13. TAXABLE INCOME AND TAX BASIS

Taxable income reportable by the Partnership and includable in its partners’ tax returns is different than financial statement income because of a tax free exchanges, accelerated depreciation, different tax lives, and timing differences related to prepaid rents and allowances. Taxable income was approximately $7,500,000 less than statement income for the year ended December 31, 2008 and approximately $1,000,000 greater than statement income for the year ended December 31, 2007. The cumulative tax basis of the Partnership’s real estate at December 31, 2008 is approximately $5,000,000 less than the statement basis. The primary reason for the lower taxable income and the lower tax basis is the acquisition of Linewt and Cypress Street utilizing tax free exchanges in 2008. The Partnership’s tax basis in its joint venture investments is approximately $200,000 less than statement basis. The tax free exchanges and mortgage prepayment penalties in 2008 generated substantial tax deductions in 2008, accordingly taxable income in future years may exceed statement income.
