NEW ENGLAND REALTY ASSOCIATES LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

General

New England Realty Associates Limited Partnership (NERA or the Partnership), a Massachusetts Limited Partnership, was formed on August 12, 1977 as the successor to five real estate limited partnerships (collectively, the Colonial Partnerships), which filed for protection under Chapter XII of the Federal Bankruptcy Act in September 1974. The bankruptcy proceedings were terminated in late 1984. In July 2004, the General Partner extended the termination date of the Partnership until 2057, as allowed in the Partnership Agreement.

The authorized capital of the Partnership is represented by three classes of partnership units (Units). There are two categories of limited partnership interests (Class A Units and Class B Units) and one category of general partnership interests (the General Partnership Units). The Class A Units were issued to creditors and limited partners of the Colonial Partnerships and have been registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Each Class A Unit is exchangeable for ten publicly traded depositary receipts (Receipts), which are currently listed on the American Stock Exchange and are registered under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act. The Class B Units were issued to the original general partners of the Partnership. The General Partnership Units are held by the current general partner of the Partnership, NewReal, Inc. (the General Partner). The Class A Units represent an 80% ownership interest, the Class B Units represent a 19% ownership interest, and the General Partnership Units represent a 1% ownership interest.

The Partnership is engaged in the business of acquiring, developing, holding for investment, operating and selling real estate. The Partnership, directly or through 22 subsidiary limited partnerships or limited liability companies, owns and operates various residential apartment buildings, condominium units and commercial properties located in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. As used herein, the Partnerships subsidiary limited partnerships and limited liability companies are each referred to as a Subsidiary Partnership and are collectively referred to as the Subsidiary Partnerships.

The Partnership owns between a 99.67% and 100% interest in each of the Subsidiary Partnerships, except in seven limited liability companies (the Investment Properties) in which the Partnership has a 50% ownership interest. For the Investment Properties, the Partnership owns 50% of each entity, the majority shareholder of the General Partner owns between 43.2% and 47.5%, the President of Hamilton owns between 2.5% and 4.5%, and five other management employees of Hamilton own collectively between 0 and 2.3% respectively. The Partnerships interest in the Investment Properties is accounted for on the equity method of consolidation in the Consolidated Financial Statements. See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements - Principles of Consolidation. See Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of the properties and their operations. Of those Subsidiary Partnerships not wholly owned by the Partnership, except for the Investment Properties, the remaining ownership interest is held by an unaffiliated third party. In each such case, the third party has entered into a lease agreement with the Partnership, pursuant to which any benefit derived from its ownership interest in the applicable Subsidiary Partnerships will be returned to the Partnership.

The long-term goals of the Partnership are to manage, rent and improve its properties and to acquire additional properties with income and capital appreciation potential as suitable opportunities arise. When appropriate, the Partnership may sell or refinance selected properties. Proceeds from any such sales or refinancings will be reinvested in acquisitions of other properties, distributed to the partners, or used for operating expenses or reserves, as determined by the General Partner.

Operations of the Partnership

The Partnership is managed by the General Partner, NewReal, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation wholly owned by Harold Brown and Ronald Brown. The General Partner has engaged The Hamilton Company, Inc. (the Hamilton Company or Hamilton) to perform general management functions for the Partnerships properties in exchange for management fees. The Hamilton Company is wholly owned by Harold Brown and employs Ronald Brown and Harold Brown. The Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships currently employ 45 and the Investment Properties employ 13 individuals who are primarily involved in the supervision and maintenance of specific properties. The General Partner has no employees.

As of February 1, 2007, the Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships owned 2,377 residential apartment units in 22 residential and mixed-use complexes (collectively, the Apartment Complexes). The Partnership also owns 24 condominium units in two residential condominium complexes, all of which are leased to residential tenants (collectively referred to as the Condominium Units). The Apartment Complexes, the Condominium Units and the Investment Properties are located primarily in the metropolitan Boston area of Massachusetts.

Additionally, as of February 1, 2007, the Subsidiary Partnerships owned a commercial shopping center in Framingham, Massachusetts and commercial space in mixed-use buildings in Boston, Brockton and Newton, Massachusetts. These properties are referred to collectively as the Commercial Properties. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, included as a part of this Form 10-K.

Additionally, as of February 1, 2007, the Partnership owned a 50% ownership interest in seven residential complexes, the Investment Properties, with a total of 503 units. See Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on these investments.

The Apartment Complexes, Investment Properties, Condominium Units and Commercial Properties are referred to collectively as the Properties.

Harold Brown and, in certain cases, Ronald Brown, own or have owned interests in certain of the Properties and the Subsidiary Partnerships. See Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.

The leasing of real estate in the metropolitan Boston area of Massachusetts is highly competitive. The Apartment Complexes, Condominium Units and the Investment Properties must compete for tenants with other residential apartments and condominium units in the areas in which they are located. The Commercial Properties must compete for commercial tenants with other shopping malls and office buildings in the areas in which they are located. Thus, the level of competition at each Property depends on how many other similarly situated properties are in its vicinity. See Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsFactors that May Affect Future Results.

The Second Amended and Restated Contract of Limited Partnership of the Partnership (the Partnership Agreement) authorizes the General Partner to acquire real estate and real estate related investments from or in participation with either or both of Harold Brown and Ronald Brown, or their affiliates, upon the satisfaction of certain terms and conditions, including the approval of the Partnerships Advisory Committee and limitations on the price paid by the Partnership for such investments. The Partnership Agreement also permits the Partnerships limited partners and the General Partner to make loans to the Partnership, subject to certain limitations on the rate of interest that may be charged to the Partnership. Except for the foregoing, the Partnership does not have any policies prohibiting any limited partner, General Partner or any other person from having any direct or indirect pecuniary interest in any investment to be acquired or disposed of by the Partnership or in any transaction to which the Partnership is a party or has an interest in or from engaging, for their own account, in business activities of the types conducted or to be conducted by the Partnership. The General Partner is not limited in the number or

SEQ.=1,FOLIO='3',FILE='C:\fc\71184337553_D11905_1850754\5823-1-de.htm',USER='jmsproofassembler',CD='Mar 12 18:44 2007'

amount of mortgages which may be placed on any Property, nor is there a policy limiting the percentage of Partnership assets which may be invested in any specific Property.

Industry Segments

The Partnership operates in only one industry segmentreal estate. The Partnership does not have any foreign operations, and its business is not seasonal. See the Consolidated Financial Statements attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein for financial information relating to our industry segment.

Recent Developments

In 2006 and 2005, the Partnership paid distributions of $28.00 per Unit ($2.80 per Receipt) for a total payment of $4,843,216. In February 2007, the Partnership approved a quarterly distribution of $ 7.00 per Unit ($0.70 per Receipt), payable on March 31, 2007.

During 2006, the Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships completed improvements to certain of the Properties at a total cost of approximately $2,800,000. These improvements were funded from cash reserves and, to some extent, escrow accounts established in connection with the financing or refinancing of the applicable Properties. These sources have been adequate to fully fund improvements. The most significant improvements were made at 62 Boylston Street, Westgate Apartments, Hamilton Oaks, Westside Colonial, Redwood Hills, and School Street, at a cost of approximately $168,000, $427,000, $383,000, $380,000, $195,000 and $196,000, respectively. The Partnership plans to invest approximately $2,250,000 in capital improvements in 2007.

As more fully described in Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, during 2005, the Partnership invested approximately $6,853,000 to acquire 50% equity interests in three complexes located in Boston and Quincy, Massachusetts. These Investment Properties subsequently returned approximately $2,100,000 to the Partnership in 2005; an additional $2,300,000 was invested in 2006.

Advisory Committee

The Partnership has an Advisory Committee composed of two limited partners who are not general partners or affiliates of the Partnership. The Advisory Committee meets with the General Partner to review the progress of the Partnership, assist the General Partner with policy formation, review the appropriateness, timing and amount of proposed distributions, approve or reject proposed acquisitions and investments with affiliates, and advise the General Partner on various other Partnership affairs. Per the Partnership Agreement, the Advisory Committee has no binding power except that it must approve certain investments and acquisitions or sales by the Partnership from or with affiliates of the Partnership.

Two members of the Advisory Committee were elected directors of the General Partner and appointed members of the General Partners Audit Committee on March 11, 2002. See Item 10. Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

We are subject to certain risks and uncertainties as described below. These risks and uncertainties may not be the only ones we face; there may be additional risks that we do not presently know of or that we currently consider immaterial. All of these risks could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Our ability to pay distributions on, and the market price of, our equity securities may be adversely affected if any of such risks are realized. All investors should consider the following risk factors before deciding to purchase or sell securities of the Partnership.

*We are subject to risks inherent in the ownership of real estate.* We own and manage multifamily apartment complexes and commercial properties that are subject to varying degrees of risk generally incident to the ownership of real estate. Our financial condition, the value of our properties and our ability to make distributions to our shareholders will be dependent upon our ability to operate our properties in a manner sufficient to generate income in excess of operating expenses and debt service charges, which may be affected by the following risks, some of which are discussed in more detail below:

· changes in the economic climate in the markets in which we own and manage properties, including interest rates, the overall level of economic activity, the availability of consumer credit and mortgage financing, unemployment rates and other factors;

· a lessening of demand for the multifamily units that we own;

· competition from other available multifamily units and changes in market rental rates;

· increases in property and liability insurance costs;

· changes in real estate taxes and other operating expenses (e.g., cleaning, utilities, repair and maintenance costs, insurance and administrative costs, security, landscaping, staffing and other general costs);

· changes in laws and regulations affecting properties (including tax, environmental, zoning and building codes, and housing laws and regulations);

· weather and other conditions that might adversely affect operating expenses;

· expenditures that cannot be anticipated, such as utility rate and usage increases, unanticipated repairs and real estate tax valuation reassessments or mileage rate increases;

· our inability to control operating expenses or achieve increases in revenues;

· the results of litigation filed or to be filed against us;

· risks related to our joint ventures;

· risks of personal injury claims and property damage related to mold claims because of diminished insurance coverage;

· catastrophic property damage losses that are not covered by our insurance;

· risks associated with property acquisitions such as environmental liabilities, among others;

· changes in market conditions that may limit or prevent us from acquiring or selling properties; and

SEQ.=1,FOLIO='5',FILE='C:\fc\71184337553_D11905_1850754\5823-1-de.htm',USER='jmsproofassembler',CD='Mar 12 18:44 2007'

· the perception of residents and prospective residents as to the attractiveness, convenience and safety of our properties or the neighborhoods in which they are located.

*We are dependent on rental income from our multifamily apartment complexes and commercial properties.* If we are unable to attract and retain residents or if our residents are unable to pay their rental obligations, our financial condition and funds available for distribution to our shareholders will be adversely affected.

*Our multifamily apartment complexes and commercial properties are subject to competition.* Our properties and joint venture investments are located in developed areas that include other properties. The properties also compete with other rental alternatives, such as condominiums, single and multifamily rental homes and owner occupied single and multifamily homes, in attracting residents. This competition may affect our ability to attract and retain residents and to increase or maintain rental rates.

*The properties we own are concentrated in Eastern Massachusetts and Southern New Hampshire.* Our performance, therefore, is linked to economic conditions and the market for available rental housing in these states. The decline in the market for apartment housing and/or commercial properties may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and ability to make distributions to our shareholders.

*Our insurance may not be adequate to cover certain risks.* There are certain types of risks, generally of a catastrophic nature, such as earthquakes, floods, windstorms, act of war and terrorist attacks, that may be uninsurable, or are not economically insurable, or are not fully covered by insurance. Moreover, certain risks, such as mold and environmental exposures, generally are not covered by our insurance. Should an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occur, we could lose our equity in the affected property as well as the anticipated future cash flow from that property. Any such loss could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

*Debt financing could adversely affect our performance.* The vast majority of our assets are encumbered by project specific, non-recourse, non-cross-collateralized mortgage debt. There is a risk that these properties will not have sufficient cash flow from operations for payments of required principal and interest. We may not be able to refinance these loans at an amount equal to the loan balance and the terms of any refinancing will not be as favorable as the terms of existing indebtedness. If we are unable to make required payments on indebtedness that is secured by a mortgage, the Partnership will either invest additional money in the property or the property securing the mortgage may be foreclosed with a consequent loss of income and value to us.

*Real estate investments are generally illiquid, and we may not be able to sell our properties when it is economically or strategically advantageous to do so.* Real estate investments generally cannot be sold quickly, and our ability to sell properties may be affected by market conditions. We may not be able to diversify or vary our portfolio promptly in accordance with our strategies or in response to economic or other conditions.

*Our access to public debt markets is limited.* Substantially all of our debt financings are secured by mortgages on our properties because of our limited access to public debt markets.

*Litigation may result in unfavorable outcomes.* Like many real estate operators, we may be involved in lawsuits involving premises liability claims, housing discrimination claims and alleged violations of landlord-tenant laws, which may give rise to class action litigation or governmental investigations. Any material litigation not covered by insurance, such as a class action, could result in substantial costs being incurred.

*Our financial results may be adversely impacted if we are unable to sell properties and employ the proceeds in accordance with our strategic plan.* Our ability to pay down debt, reduce our interest costs,

SEQ.=1,FOLIO='6',FILE='C:\fc\71201011769_D11905_1851481\5823-1-dg.htm',USER='jmsproofassembler',CD='Mar 12 20:11 2007'

buy back stock and acquire properties is dependent upon our ability to sell the properties we have selected for disposition at the prices and within the deadlines we have established for each respective property.

*The costs of complying with laws and regulations could adversely affect our cash flow and ability to make distributions to our shareholders.* Our properties must comply with Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (the ADA) to the extent that they are public accommodations or commercial facilities as defined in the ADA. The ADA does not consider apartment complexes to be public accommodations or commercial facilities, except for portions of such properties that are open to the public. In addition, the Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988 (the FHAA) requires apartment complexes first occupied after March 13, 1990, to be accessible to the handicapped. Other laws also require apartment communities to be handicap accessible. Noncompliance with these laws could result in the imposition of fines or an award of damages to private litigants. We may be subject to lawsuits alleging violations of handicap design laws in connection with certain of our developments. If compliance with these laws involves substantial expenditures or must be made on an accelerated basis, our ability to make distributions to our shareholders could be adversely affected.

Under various federal, state and local laws, an owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in the property. This liability may be imposed without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of the substances. Other law imposes on owners and operators certain requirements regarding conditions and activities that may affect human health or the environment. Failure to comply with applicable requirements could complicate our ability to lease or sell an affected property and could subject us to monetary penalties, costs required to achieve compliance and potential liability to third parties. We are not aware of any material noncompliance, liability or claim relating to hazardous or toxic substances or other environmental matters in connection with any of our properties. Nonetheless, it is possible that material environmental contamination or conditions exist, or could arise in the future, in the apartment communities or on the land upon which they are located.

*We are subject to the risks associated with investments through joint ventures.* Seven of our properties are owned by joint ventures in which we do not have a controlling interest. We may enter into joint ventures, including joint ventures that we do not control, in the future. Any joint venture investment involves risks such as the possibility that the co-venturer may seek relief under federal or state insolvency laws, or have economic or business interests or goals that are inconsistent with our business interests or goals. While the bankruptcy or insolvency of our co-venturer generally should not disrupt the operations of the joint venture, we could be forced to purchase the co-venturers interest in the joint venture or the interest could be sold to a third party. We also may guarantee the indebtedness of our joint ventures. If we do not have control over a joint venture, the value of our investment may be affected adversely by a third party that may have different goals and capabilities than ours.

*We are subject to risks associated with development, acquisition and expansion of multifamily apartment complexes.* Development projects and acquisitions and expansions of apartment complexes are subject to a number of risks, including:

· availability of acceptable financing;

· competition with other entities for investment opportunities;

· failure by our properties to achieve anticipated operating results;

· construction costs of a property exceeding original estimates;

· delays in construction; and

· expenditure of funds on, and the devotion of management time to, transactions that may not come to fruition.

SEQ.=1,FOLIO='7',FILE='C:\fc\71201011769_D11905_1851481\5823-1-dg.htm',USER='jmsproofassembler',CD='Mar 12 20:11 2007'

*We are subject to control by our directors and officers.* The directors and executive officers of the General Partner and members of their families owned approximately 18.0% of our depositary receipts as of December 31, 2006. Additionally, management decisions rest with our General Partner without limited partner approval. The Partnership has not submitted any items for a vote by partners since inception.

*Competition for skilled personnel could increase our labor costs.* We and our management company compete with various other companies in attracting and retaining qualified and skilled personnel who are responsible for the day-to-day operations of our properties. Competitive pressures may require that we enhance our pay and benefits package to compete effectively for such personnel. We may not be able to offset such added costs by increasing the rates we charge our tenants. If there is an increase in these costs or if we fail to attract and retain qualified and skilled personnel, our business and operating results could be harmed.

*We depend on our key personnel.* Our success depends to a significant degree upon the continued contribution of key members of the management company, who may be difficult to replace. The loss of services of these executives could have a material adverse effect on us. There can be no assurance that the services of such personnel will continue to be available to us. We do not hold key-man life insurance on any of our key personnel.

345 FRANKLIN, LLC. In November 2001, the Partnership acquired, through this LLC, a 50% interest in a 40-unit apartment building in Cambridge, Massachusetts. This property has a 12-year mortgage, which is amortized on a 30-year schedule, with a final payment of approximately $6,000,000 due in 2014.

HAMILTON ON MAIN, LLC. In August 2004, the Partnership acquired for approximately $8,000,000 a 50% interest in a six building 280-unit apartment complex in Watertown, Massachusetts for $56,000,000. A $43,000,000 mortgage was obtained on the buildings. This acquisition was subsequently split into two parcels of three buildings with the intention of selling 137 apartments in three buildings as condominiums and retaining 146 units, after additional modifications were made, in three buildings. At December 31,2006, the remaining mortgage balance on the unsold units was $2,380,745.

In February 2005, Hamilton on Main obtained a new ten year mortgage on the three buildings to be retained for $16,825,000 interest only at 5.18% for 3 years and amortizing on a 30 - year schedule for the remaining seven years when the balance is due. The net proceeds after funding escrow accounts and closing costs on the new mortgage was approximately $16,700,000, which was used to reduce the existing mortgage. Hamilton Place incurred losses in 2005 of approximately $400,000 in connection with this early extinguishment of debt.

HAMILTON MINUTEMAN, LLC. In August 2004, the Partnership acquired, through this LLC, a 50% interest in a 42-unit apartment building in Lexington, Massachusetts for approximately $10,000,000.

In October 2004, the Partnership obtained a three year mortgage on the property in the amount of $8,025,000 and returned $3,775,000 to the Partnership. In January 2007, the original mortgage was refinanced for $5,500,000. This refinancing required a capital contribution by the Partnership of $1,250,000.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

The information required by this Item is included on page 42 of this Form 10-K.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereof appearing elsewhere in this Report. This Report, on Form 10-K, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the securities law. Actual results or developments could differ materially from those projected in such statements as a result of certain factors set forth in the section below entitled Factors That May Affect Future Results and elsewhere in this Report.

While job growth in Massachusetts has been slow, there has been net positive absorption of commercial office and R&D space for three plus years in both the urban and suburban metropolitan areas. This modest economic growth has helped stabilize the residential rental market. Fewer apartment complexes are being built and currently it appears that supply/demand is in equilibrium to some weighting in favor of landlords. According to Cushman & Wakefields greater Boston residential report, the average

SEQ.=1,FOLIO='17',FILE='C:\fc\7118442947_D11905_1850754\5823-1-dm.htm',USER='jmsproofassembler',CD='Mar 12 18:05 2007'

vacancy rate for 2006 was 3.9%. NERAs average 2006 vacancy rate of approximately 1.5% was well below the industry average. For the year 2007, we anticipate average revenue gains to be positive but modest.

During 2006, NERAs rentals units began to experience declines in renting, insurance and real estate tax expenses. This was a result of the improving conditions in the marketplace, competitive bidding and vigilant tax abatement procedures. Management continues to play an active role in the cost containment of utilities by improving the buildings. Management also expects the past increase in repair and maintenance expenses to stabilize given the previous years investment in unit renovations.

While apartment rentals continue to be NERAs primary long term focus, condominium conversions at the Investment Properties provided alternative investment vehicles for NERA starting in 2005. During 2005 and 2006, approximately two thirds of the 384 units held for sale have been sold. While the pace of sales has slowed, Management believes that based upon the current interest level, current mortgage interest rate environment and units currently under agreement, that the majority of the remaining units will be sold during 2007. This will result in a return of capital invested, retirement of existing floating rate debt and substantial reduction in carrying costs thus yielding increasing profits in the latter half of 2007. Operationally, Management has also taken steps to reduce operating costs at the Investment Properties, and expects to further modify loan agreements in 2007 at reduced interest rates.

The Partnership has retained The Hamilton Company (Hamilton) to manage and administer the Partnerships wholly owned and joint venture properties. Hamilton is a full-service real estate management company, which has legal, construction, maintenance, architectural, accounting and administrative departments. The Partnerships properties represent approximately 40% of the total properties and 70% of the residential properties managed by Hamilton. Substantially all of the other properties managed by Hamilton are owned, wholly or partially, directly or indirectly, by Harold Brown. The Partnerships Second Amended and Restated Contract of Limited Partnership (the Partnership Agreement) expressly provides that the general partner may employ a management company to manage the properties, and that such management company may be paid a fee of 4% of rental receipts for administrative and management services (the Management Fee). The Partnership annually pays Hamilton the full Management Fee, in monthly installments.

Harold Brown, his brother Ronald Brown and the President of Hamilton, Carl Valeri, collectively own approximately 21.2% of the depositary receipts representing the Partnership Class A Units (including depositary receipts held by trusts for the benefit of such persons family members). Harold Brown also owns 75% of the Partnerships Class B Units, 75% of the capital stock of NewReal, Inc. (NewReal), the Partnerships sole general partner, and all of the outstanding stock of Hamilton. Ronald Brown also owns 25% of the Partnerships Class B Units and 25% of NewReals capital stock. In addition, Ronald Brown is the President and director of NewReal and Harold Brown is NewReals Treasurer and a director. Three of NewReals other directors, Thomas Raffoul, Conrad DiGregorio and Edward Sarkisian, also own immaterial amounts of the Partnerships Class A Units or receipts.

Beyond the Management Fee, the Partnership Agreement further provides for the employment of outside professionals to provide services to the Partnership and allows NewReal to charge the Partnership for the cost of employing professionals to assist with the administration of the Partnerships properties. In addition to the Management Fee, from time to time the Partnership pays Hamilton for repairs and maintenance services, legal services, construction services and accounting services. The costs charged by Hamilton for these services are at the same hourly rate charged to all entities managed by Hamilton, and management believes such rates are competitive in the marketplace.

Hamilton accounted for approximately 4% of the repair and maintenance expense paid for by the Partnership in the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005. Of the funds paid to Hamilton for this purpose, the great majority was to cover the cost of services provided by the Hamilton maintenance department, including plumbing, electrical, carpentry services, and snow removal for those properties close

to Hamiltons headquarters. However, several of the larger Partnership properties have their own maintenance staff. Further, those properties that do not have their own maintenance staff but are located more than a reasonable distance from Hamiltons headquarters in Allston, Massachusetts are generally serviced by local, independent companies.

Hamiltons legal department handles most of the Partnerships eviction and collection matters. Additionally, it prepares most long-term commercial lease agreements and represents the Partnership in selected purchase and sale transactions. Overall, Hamilton provided approximately 72% of the legal services paid for by the Partnership during the year ended December 31, 2006 and approximately 70% for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Additionally, as described in Note 3, The Hamilton Company receives similar fees from the Investment Properties.

R. Brown Partners, which is owned by Ronald Brown, manages five condominium units located in Brookline, Massachusetts. That entity will receive annual management fees from the five units of approximately $3,000, and Hamilton will reduce its management fees to approximately 2%, so that the total management fee will not exceed the 4% allowed by the Partnerships Partnership Agreement.

The Partnership requires that three bids be obtained for construction contracts in excess of $5,000. Hamilton may be one of the three bidders on a particular project and may be awarded the contract if its bid and its ability to successfully complete the project are deemed appropriate. For contracts that are not awarded to Hamilton, Hamilton charges the Partnership a construction supervision fee equal to 5% of the contract amount. Hamiltons architectural department also provides services to the Partnership on an as-needed basis. In 2006, Hamilton provided the Partnership approximately $36,000 in construction and architectural services. In 2005, Hamilton provided construction and architectural services paid for by the Partnership totaling $109,000.

Prior to 1991, the Partnership employed an outside, unaffiliated company to perform its bookkeeping and accounting functions. Since that time, such services have been provided by Hamiltons accounting staff, which consists of approximately 14 people. In 2006, Hamilton charged the Partnership $80,000 per year ($20,000 per quarter) for bookkeeping and accounting services. In 2007, Hamilton will charge the Partnership $100,000 per year for bookkeeping and accounting services ($25,000 per quarter.)

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires the Partnership to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. The Partnership regularly and continually evaluates its estimates, including those related to acquiring, developing and assessing the carrying values of its real estate properties and its investments in and advances to joint ventures. The Partnership bases its estimates on historical experience, current market conditions, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. The Partnerships critical accounting policies are those which require assumptions to be made about such matters that are highly uncertain. Different estimates could have a material effect on the Partnerships financial results. Judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of these policies and estimates may result in materially different amounts being reported under different conditions and circumstances. See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, Principles of Consolidation.

SEQ.=1,FOLIO='19',FILE='C:\fc\7118442947_D11905_1850754\5823-1-dm.htm',USER='jmsproofassembler',CD='Mar 12 18:05 2007'

Revenue Recognition: Rental income from residential and commercial properties is recognized over the term of the related lease. Amounts 60 days in arrears are charged against income. 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..

Real Estate and Depreciation: Real estate assets are stated at the lower of cost or fair value, less accumulated depreciation. Costs related to the acquisition, development, construction and improvement of properties are capitalized, including interest, internal wages and benefits, real estate taxes and insurance. Capitalization usually begins with commencement of development activity and ends when the property is ready for leasing. Replacements and improvements, such as HVAC equipment, structural replacements, windows, appliances, flooring, carpeting and kitchen/bath replacements and renovations, are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives as follows:

· Depreciation is computed on the straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. In assessing estimated useful lives, the Partnership makes assumptions based on historical experience acquired from both within and outside the Partnership. These assumptions have a direct impact on the Partnerships net income.

· Ordinary repairs and maintenance, such as unit cleaning and painting and appliance repairs, are expensed.

If there is an event or change in circumstances that indicates an impairment in the value of a property, the Partnerships policy is to assess the impairment by making a comparison of the current and projected operating cash flows of the property over its remaining useful life, on an undiscounted basis, to the carrying amount of the property. If the carrying value is in excess of the estimated projected operating cash flows of the property, the Partnership would recognize an impairment loss equivalent to the amount required to adjust the carrying amount to its estimated fair value. The Partnership has not recognized an impairment loss since 1995.

Rental Property Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations: 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 managements 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.

Investments in Partnerships: The Partnership accounts for its 50% ownership in the Investment Properties under the equity method of accounting, as it exercises significant influence over, but does not control these entities. These investments are recorded initially at cost, as Investments in Partnerships, and subsequently adjusted for the Partnerships share in earnings, cash contributions and distributions. Under the equity method of accounting, our net equity is reflected on the consolidated balance sheets, and our share of net income or loss from the Partnership is included on the consolidated statements of income.

With respect to investments in and advances to the Investment Properties, the Partnership looks to the underlying properties to assess performance and the recoverability of carrying amounts for those investments in a manner similar to direct investments in real estate properties. An impairment charge is recorded if the carrying value of the investment exceeds its fair value.

Legal Proceedings: The Partnership is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise, from time to time, in the ordinary course of business. These matters are frequently covered by insurance. If it is determined that a loss is likely to occur, the estimated amount of the loss is recorded in the financial statements. Both the amount of the loss and the point at which its occurrence is considered likely can be difficult to determine.

Rental income from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2006 was approximately $31,689,000, compared to approximately $31,323,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005, an increase of approximately $366,000. Properties with significant increases in rental income include the Courtyard at Westgate, 62 Boylston Street, Westgate Apartments, Westside Colonial, Hamilton Oaks and School Street. These increases are due to improved occupancy levels and slight increases in rental rates.

Expenses from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2006 were approximately $30,703,000, compared to approximately $29,835,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005, an increase of approximately $868,000. The most significant factors contributing to this increase were: an increase in repairs and maintenance expenses of approximately $628,000 (13%) due to an increase in salaries and wages for the repairs and maintenance staff as well as an increase in the cleaning services due to continued efforts to maintain high levels of occupancy; an increase in depreciation and amortization of approximately $389,000 (6.0%) due to continued improvements to Partnership properties; an increase in administrative expenses of approximately $96,000 (7.1%) due to an increase in professional fees; and an increase in the management fee of approximately $18,000 (1.4%) due to an increase in rental income.

SEQ.=1,FOLIO='22',FILE='C:\fc\7416148794_D11087_1873595\5823-1-do.htm',USER='jmsproofassembler',CD='Mar 15 16:03 2007'

These increases are offset by a decrease in operating expenses of approximately $161,000 (3.9%) due to a decrease in snow removal and utility costs due to a mild winter; and a decrease in renting expenses of approximately $34,000 (6.5%) due to a decrease in rental commissions.

At December 31, 2006, the Partnership has a 50% ownership interest in seven different Investment Properties. See a description of these properties included in the section titled Investment Properties as well as Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a detail of the financial information of each Investment Property.

As described in Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Partnerships share of the net loss from the 50% owned Investment Properties was approximately $445, 000. Included in this loss is depreciation expense of approximately $4,786,000 and a gain on the sale of units of approximately $5,435,000. There were 104 units sold in 2006. The operating loss can be further attributable to absorbing the expenses of vacant units being held for sale as described in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. In 2005, the Partnerships share of income was approximately $1,352,000. Included in the Partnerships share of income was a gain on the sale of units of approximately $4,242,000 and depreciation expense of $2,119,000. There were 147 units sold in 2005.

Interest income for the year ended December 31, 2006, was approximately $434,000 compared to approximately $224,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005, an increase of approximately $210,000. This increase is due to an increase in interest rates.

As a result of the changes discussed above, net income for the year ended December 31, 2006 was approximately $1,403,000 compared to approximately $9,456,000, a decrease of approximately $8,052,000. The net income for the year ended December 31, 2005 includes a gain of approximately $5,960,000 on the sale of real estate from discontinued operations.

Years ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 (as adjusted for discontinued operations)

The Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships earned income before other income and loss and discontinued operations of $1,910,347 during the year ended December 31, 2005, compared to $2,105,407 for the year ended December 31, 2004, a decrease of $195,060 (9.3%).

The adjustment removes from 2005 the operations of properties that are not comparable to the same properties in 2004.

** Discontinued operations are excluded in the year-to-year comparisons.

Rental income from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2005 was approximately $31,323,000, compared to approximately $30,510,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004, an increase of approximately $813,000. Properties with significant increases in rental income include the Courtyard at Westgate, 62 Boylston Street, Westgate Apartments, and Westside Colonial. These increases are due to improved occupancy levels and slight increases in rental rates.

Expenses from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2005 were approximately $29,835,000, compared to approximately $28,760,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004, an increase of approximately $1,075,000. The most significant factors contributing to this increase were: an increase in operating expenses of approximately $654,000 (19%) due to increases in snow removal and utility costs due to an extremely harsh winter in 2005; an increase in depreciation and amortization of approximately $328,000 (5.4%) due to continued improvements to Partnership properties as well as a full years depreciation in 2005 on the Courtyard at Westgate; and an increase in taxes and insurance of approximately $133,000 (3.9%) due to increases in real estate taxes at many of the Partnership properties.

These increases are offset by a decrease in renting expenses of approximately $92,000 due to a decrease in advertising expense.

At December 31, 2005, the Partnership has a 50% ownership interest in seven different Investment Properties. See Note 14 for financial information of these Investment Properties. The summaries are as follows:

As described in Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Partnerships share of the net profit from the 50% owned Investment Properties was approximately $1,352,000 comprised of gains from sales of individual units of approximately $4,243,000 offset by an operating loss of approximately $2,891,000. Approximately $2,100,000 of the operating loss is depreciation expense and approximately $200,000 related to the early extinguishment of debt. The operating loss can be further attributable to absorbing the expenses of vacant units being held for sale as described in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. In 2004, the Partnerships share of the net loss was approximately $335,000 of which approximately $455,000 was depreciation. There were no units sold in 2004.

Interest income was approximately $224,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005, compared to approximately $216,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004, an increase of approximately $8,000 (3.7%). This is due to a slight increase in interest rates earned.

In 2004, the Partnership recorded a loss on the early extinguishment of debt of approximately $411,000 due to prepayment penalties of $387,000 and the write-off of deferred financing fees of approximately $24,000 relating to the Dean Street refinancing.

As a result of the changes discussed above, net income for the year ended December 31, 2005 was approximately $9,456,000 inclusive of the gain on the sale of Middlesex of approximately $5,960,000, compared to approximately $1,612,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004, an increase of approximately $7,844,000 (486%).

The Partnerships principal source of cash during 2006 and 2005 was the collection of rents. The majority of cash and cash equivalents of $9,773,250 at December 31, 2006 and $12,049,392 at December 31, 2005 were held in interest-bearing accounts at creditworthy financial institutions.

This decrease of $2,276,142 at December 31, 2006 is summarized as follows:

	Year Ended December 31, — 2006		2005

operating activities	$ 8,589,954		$ 8,066,015

The cash provided by operating activities is primarily due to the collection of rents less cash operating expenses. The increase in cash used in investing activities is due to the sale of a Partnership property in March 2005. The increase in cash used in financing activities is due to the refinancing of a Partnership property in January 2005.

As discussed previously, in 2005 the Partnership invested approximately $6,852,000 for a 50% ownership interest in three Investment Properties and an additional 2,300,000 in 2006. See Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of the Investment Properties and the related income on these investments.

During 2006, the Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships completed improvements to certain of the Properties at a total cost of approximately $2,800,000. These improvements were funded from cash reserves and, to some extent, escrow accounts established in connection with the financing or refinancing of the applicable Properties. These sources have been adequate to fully fund improvements. The most significant improvements were made at 62 Boylston Street, Westgate Apartments, Hamilton Oaks, Westside Colonial, Redwood Hills, and School Street, at a cost of approximately $168,000, $427,000, $383,000, $380,000, $196,000 and $196,000, respectively. The Partnership plans to invest approximately $2,250,000 in capital improvements in 2007.

The Partnership paid a quarterly distributions of $7.00 per Unit ($.70 per Receipt) on March 31, 2006, June 30, 2006, September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2006. The total distributions paid during the year ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 were $4,843,216.

In February 2007, the Partnership approved a distribution of $7.00 per Unit ($. 70 per Receipt) payable March 31, 2007.

The Partnership anticipates that cash from operations and interest-bearing investments will be sufficient to fund its current operations and to finance current improvements to its properties. The Partnerships net income and cash flow may fluctuate dramatically from year to year as a result of the sale of properties, increases or decreases in rental income or expenses, or the loss of significant tenants.

Off-Balance Sheet ArrangementsJoint Venture Indebtedness

As of December 31, 2006, the Partnership had a 50% ownership in seven joint ventures, all of which have mortgage indebtedness. We do not have control of these partnerships and therefore we account for them using the equity method of consolidation. At December 31, 2006, our proportionate share of the non-recourse debt related to these investments was equal to approximately $32,919,000. See Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Contractual Obligations

See Notes 5 and 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of mortgage notes payable. The Partnerships have no other material contractual obligations to be disclosed.

FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain information contained herein includes forward-looking statements, which are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Liquidation Reform Act of 1995 (the Act). Forward-looking statements in this report, or which management may make orally or in written form from time to time, reflect managements good faith belief when those statements are made, and are based on information currently available to management. Caution should be exercised in interpreting and relying on such forward-looking statements, the realization of which may be impacted by known and unknown risks

SEQ.=1,FOLIO='27',FILE='C:\fc\71201722307_D11905_1851481\5823-1-dq.htm',USER='jmsproofassembler',CD='Mar 12 20:18 2007'

and uncertainties, events that may occur subsequent to the forward-looking statements, and other factors which may be beyond the Partnerships control and which can materially affect the Partnerships actual results, performance or achievements for 2006 and beyond. Should one or more of the risks or uncertainties mentioned below materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to update our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on past forward-looking statements, which are based on results and trends at the time they are made, to anticipate future results or trends.

Along with risks detailed in Item 1A and from time to time in the Partnerships filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, some factors that could cause the Partnerships actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include but are not limited to the following:

· The Partnership depends on the real estate markets where its properties are located, primarily in Eastern Massachusetts, and these markets may be adversely affected by local economic market conditions, which are beyond the Partnerships control.

· The Partnership is subject to the general economic risks affecting the real estate industry, such as dependence on tenants financial condition, the need to enter into new leases or renew leases on terms favorable to tenants in order to generate rental revenues and our ability to collect rents from our tenants. The Partnership is also impacted by changing economic conditions making alternative housing arrangements more or less attractive to the Partnerships tenants, such as the interest rates on single-family home mortgages and the availability and purchase price of single-family homes in the Greater Boston metropolitan area.

· The Partnership is subject to significant expenditures associated with each investment, such as debt service payments, real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs, which are generally not reduced when circumstances cause a reduction in revenues from a property.

· The Partnership is subject to increases in heating and utility costs that may arise as a result of economic and market conditions and fluctuations in seasonal weather conditions.

· Civil disturbances, earthquakes and other natural disasters may result in uninsured or underinsured losses.

· Actual or threatened terrorist attacks may adversely affect our ability to generate revenues and the value of our properties.

· Financing or refinancing of Partnership properties may not be available to the extent necessary or desirable, or may not be available on favorable terms.

· The Partnership properties face competition from similar properties in the same market. This competition may affect the Partnerships ability to attract and retain tenants and may reduce the rents that can be charged.

· Given the nature of the real estate business, the Partnership is subject to potential environmental liabilities. These include environmental contamination in the soil at the Partnerships or neighboring real estate, whether caused by the Partnership, previous owners of the subject property or neighbors of the subject property, and the presence of hazardous materials in the Partnerships buildings, such as asbestos, mold and radon gas. Management is not aware of any material environmental liabilities at this time.

SEQ.=1,FOLIO='28',FILE='C:\fc\71201722307_D11905_1851481\5823-1-dq.htm',USER='jmsproofassembler',CD='Mar 12 20:18 2007'

· Insurance coverage for and relating to commercial properties is increasingly costly and difficult to obtain. In addition, insurance carriers have excluded certain specific items from standard insurance policies, which have resulted in increased risk exposure for the Partnership. These include insurance coverage for acts of terrorism and war, and coverage for mold and other environmental conditions. Coverage for these items is either unavailable or prohibitively expensive.

· Market interest rates could adversely affect market prices for Class A Partnership Units and Depositary Receipts as well as performance and cash flow.

· Changes in income tax laws and regulations may affect the income taxable to owners of the Partnership. These changes may affect the after-tax value of future distributions.

· The Partnership may fail to identify, acquire, construct or develop additional properties; may develop or acquire properties that do not produce a desired or expected yield on invested capital; may be unable to sell poorly-performing or otherwise undesirable properties quickly; or may fail to effectively integrate acquisitions of properties or portfolios of properties.

· Risk associated with the use of debt to fund acquisitions and developments.

· Competition for acquisitions may result in increased prices for properties.

· The sale of condominium units may not generate enough net proceeds to pay the minimum curtailment payments required at Hamilton Place and Hamilton Minuteman. The Partnership may be required to fund any deficiencies.

· Any weakness identified in the Partnerships internal controls as part of the evaluation being undertaken by the Company and its independent public accountant pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 could have an adverse effect on the Companys business.

· Ongoing compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 may require additional personnel or systems changes.

The foregoing factors should not be construed as exhaustive or as an admission regarding the adequacy of disclosures made by the Partnership prior to the date hereof or the effectiveness of said Act. The Partnership expressly disclaims any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

The residential real estate market in the Greater Boston area has softened, and the Partnership anticipates the climate will remain the same in the foreseeable future. This may result in increases in vacancy rates and/or a reduction in some rents. The Partnership believes its present cash reserves as well as anticipated rental revenue will be sufficient to fund its current operations, finance current planned improvements to its properties, and continue dividend payments in the foreseeable future.

Since the Partnerships long-term goals include the acquisition of additional properties, a portion of the proceeds from the refinancing and sale of properties is reserved for this purpose. The Partnership will consider refinancing or selling existing properties if the Partnerships cash reserves are insufficient to repay existing mortgages or if the Partnership needs additional funds for future acquisitions.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As of December 31, 2006, the Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships collectively have approximately $115,000,000 in long-term debt, all of which pays interest at fixed rates. Accordingly, the fair value of these debt instruments is affected by changes in market interest rates. Approximately $33,000,000 of Investment Property mortgages payable are at a variable rate of 2% over the 30 day LIBOR rate (5.35%) at December 31, 2006. These mortgages mature through 2008. For information regarding the fair

value and maturity dates of these debt obligations, see Item 2 and Notes 5, 12 and 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

None.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We have evaluated the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures to determine whether they are effective in ensuring that the disclosure of required information is timely made in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) and the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. This evaluation was made under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) as of the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K. The CEO and CFO have concluded, based on their review, that our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e), are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. We assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework. Based on that assessment and those criteria, we concluded that our internal control over financial reporting is effective as of December 31, 2006. Our independent registered public accounting firm, Miller Wachman LLP, has issued an audit report on managements assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, which is included in the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm in Part II, Item 8 of this report on Form 10-K.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2006 that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

We believe that because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

PART III

ITEM 10. DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT

The General Partner is a Massachusetts corporation wholly owned by Harold Brown and Ronald Brown, who are brothers. Harold Brown and Ronald Brown were individual general partners of the Partnership until May 1984, when NewReal, Inc. replaced them as the sole General Partner of the Partnership. The General Partner is responsible for making all decisions and taking all action deemed by it necessary or appropriate to conduct the business of the Partnership.

From October 1992 until 1996, the General Partner engaged The Hamilton Partnership as the management company to manage the properties of the Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships. The Hamilton Company, a Massachusetts corporation, was the 99% General Partner of The Hamilton Partnership. During 1996, the Hamilton Partnership was dissolved and its successor and general partner assumed the management functions of the Hamilton Partnership. The Hamilton Company continues to manage the Properties. The Hamilton Company was purchased by Harold Brown in August 1993. Harold Brown also owned the corporation that was the 1% limited partner of the Hamilton Partnership. See Item 11. Executive Compensation for information concerning fees paid by the Partnership to The Hamilton Company during 2006.

Because the General Partner has engaged The Hamilton Company as the manager for the Properties, the General Partner has no employees.

The directors of the General Partner are Ronald Brown, Harold Brown, Guilliaem Aertsen, Conrad DiGregorio, Edward Sarkisian and Thomas Raffoul. The directors of the General Partner hold office until their successors are duly elected and qualified.

Ronald Brown and Harold Brown hold all of the executive officer positions of the General Partner. The executive officers of the General Partner serve at the pleasure of the Board of Directors.

On June 14, 2001, the Board of Directors of the General Partner created an Audit Committee, consisting of three members, and approved the charter of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee was not filled until March 11, 2002, on which date Messrs. Aertsen, DiGregorio and Raffoul were appointed as its members. On January 2, 2003, the Audit Committee was expanded to four members, and Edward Sarkisian was added as a member. The Board of Directors of the General Partner has determined that Guilliaem Aertsen is an audit committee financial expert, as that term is defined in Item 401 of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-K.

COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Partnerships directors, executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Partnerships equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission reports of ownership changes and changes in ownership of the Partnership. Officers, directors and greater-than-10% shareholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Partnership with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely on review of the copies of such reports furnished to the Partnership or written or oral representations that no reports were required, the Partnership believes that during the 2006 fiscal year, all filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and greater-than-10% beneficial owners were complied with. Also, as of December 2003, Mr. Raffoul only owned 846 Class A Units (the 2003 10-K incorrectly listed his ownership as 907 Class A Units), and Mr. Raffoul sold an additional 150 Class A Units on October 11, 2004. Finally, Mr. Sarkisian sold all of his Class A Units on May 24, 2004 and purchased 684 receipts in 2005.

CODE OF ETHICS

The Partnership, its General Partner and Hamilton, the Partnerships management company, have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which constitutes a Code of Ethics as defined by the SEC and applies to executive officers as well as to all other employees. A copy of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is available in the Investor Relations section of the management companys website at www.thehamiltoncompany.com/nerainvestor.htm. To the extent required by the rules of the SEC, the Partnership and its related entities will disclose amendments and waivers of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics in the same place on the aforementioned website.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Partnership is not required to and did not pay any compensation to its officers or the officers and directors of the General Partner in 2006 except as described below, for attendance at Advisory and Audit Committee meetings. As more fully described below, the Partnership employs a management company which is solely responsible for performing all management and policy making functions for the Partnership. The only compensation paid by the Partnership to any person or entity is in the form of management fees and administrative fees paid to the General Partner, or any management entity employed by the General Partner, in accordance with the Partnership Agreement.

Specifically, the Partnership Agreement provides that the General Partner, or any management entity employed by the General Partner, is entitled to a management fee equal to 4% of the rental and other operating income from the Partnership Properties and a mortgage servicing fee equal to 0.5% of the unpaid principal balance of any debt instruments received, held and serviced by the Partnership (the Management Fee). The Partnership Agreement also authorizes the General Partner to charge to the Partnership its cost for employing professionals to assist with the administration of the Partnership Properties (the Administrative Fees). The Administrative Fee is not charged against the Management Fee. In addition, upon the sale or disposition of any Partnership Properties, the General Partner, or any management entity which is the effective cause of such sale, is entitled to a commission equal to 3% of the gross sale price (the Commission), provided that should any other broker be entitled to a commission in connection with the sale, the commission shall be the difference between 3% of the gross sale price and the amount to be paid to such broker.

The General Partner has engaged The Hamilton Company (Hamilton) to operate and manage the Partnership, and in accordance with the Partnership Agreement, the Management Fee, the Administrative Fees and the Commission are paid Hamilton. See Item 10. Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant. The total Management Fee paid to Hamilton during 2006 was approximately $1,297,000. The management services provided by Hamilton include but are not limited to: collecting rents and other income; approving, ordering and supervising all repairs and other decorations; terminating leases, evicting tenants, purchasing supplies and equipment, financing and refinancing properties, settling insurance claims, maintaining administrative offices and employing personnel. In addition, the Partnership engages the president of Hamilton as a consultant to provide asset management services to the Partnership, for which the Partnership paid $50,000 in 2006.

In 2006, the Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships paid administrative fees to Hamilton of approximately $385,000 inclusive of construction supervision and architectural fees of approximately $28,000, repairs and maintenance service fees of approximately $202,000, legal fees of $143,000, and rental commissions of approximately $12,000. The Partnership also paid Hamilton approximately $80,000 for accounting services and approximately $7,000 for construction costs capitalized in rental properties. Additionally, the administrative fees included $24,000 that was paid by the Partnership to Ronald Brown for construction supervision services.

SEQ.=1,FOLIO='34',FILE='C:\fc\74162846733_D11086_1873775\5823-1-du.htm',USER='jmsproofassembler',CD='Mar 15 16:29 2007'

Additionally, The Hamilton Company received approximately $1,090,000 from the 50% owned Investment Properties of which approximately $360,000 was the management fee, approximately $21,000 was for construction supervision and architectural fees, and approximately $466,000 was for maintenance services, $13,000 for legal services, and $230,000 for construction costs. Additionally, The Hamilton Company received approximately $88,000 in legal fees from the sales of units.

The Advisory Committee held six meetings during 2006, and each of the persons indicated above received $3,000 in total for attendance at and participation in such meetings. Additionally, each member of the Audit Committee received $500 per meeting for a total of $2,000 in 2006.

Compensation Discussion & Analysis

As discussed above, the only compensation awarded to, earned by, or paid to any person or entity performing management or policy-making functions for the Partnership are in the form of the Management Fee, the Administrative Fee, and the Commission paid to Hamilton as the management entity employed by the General Partner. The Partnerships third-party management structure is customary among publicly traded limited partnerships, particularly those partnerships in the Partnerships peer group in the residential real estate industry. The Management Fee and Commission payable to Hamilton pursuant to the Partnership Agreement increase proportionately with the income and gross sale price figures, respectively, to which such elements of compensation are tied. This compensation arrangement provides an incentive for Hamilton to maximize income and gross sale prices of the Partnership which, in turn, maximizes the Limited Partners return on their investment.

Except as otherwise disclosed herein above, the Partnership does not pay any compensation as such term is defined in Item 402(a)(2) of Regulation S-K, and the foregoing discussion includes all of the material information that is necessary to an understanding of the Partnerships compensation policies and decisions regarding the General Partner and Hamilton.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

As of March 1, 2007, except as listed below, the General Partner was not aware of any beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding Class A Units or the Depositary Receipts, other than Computershare, which, under the Deposit Agreement, as Depositary, is the record holder of the Class A Units exchanged for Depositary Receipts. As of March 1, 2007, pursuant to the Deposit Agreement, Computershare was serving as the record holder of the Class A Units with respect to which 1,318,916 Depositary Receipts had been issued to 1,092 holders. As of March 1, 2007, there were issued and outstanding 6,486 Class A Units (not including the Depositary Receipts) held by 314 limited partners, 33,015 Class B Units and 1,738 General Partnership Units held by the persons listed below. During 2006, 1,992 Class A Units were exchanged for 19,920 Depositary Receipts.

SEQ.=1,FOLIO='35',FILE='C:\fc\74162846733_D11086_1873775\5823-1-du.htm',USER='jmsproofassembler',CD='Mar 15 16:29 2007'

The following table sets forth certain information regarding each class of Partnership Units beneficially owned as of December 31, 2006 by (i) each person known by the Company to beneficially own more than 5% of any class of Partnership Units, (ii) each director and officer of the General Partner and (iii) all directors and officers of the General Partner as a group. For purposes of this table, all Depositary Receipts are included as if they were converted back into Class A Units. The inclusion in the table below of any Units deemed beneficially owned does not constitute an admission that the named persons are direct or indirect beneficial owners of such Units. Unless otherwise indicated, each person listed below has sole voting and investment power with respect to the Units listed.

(1) As of February 27, 2007, 21,061 Depositary Receipts are held of record by Harold Brown and 222,746 Depositary Receipts are held of record by the NERA 1994 Irrevocable Trust (the Trust), a grantor trust established by Harold Brown. The beneficiaries of the Trust are trusts for the benefit of children of Mr. Brown. During his lifetime, Mr. Brown is entitled to receive the income from the Trust and has the right to reacquire the Depositary Receipts held by the Trust provided that substitute assets are transferred to the Trust. Accordingly, Mr. Brown may be deemed to beneficially own the Depositary Receipts held by the Trust. Because a Depositary Receipt represents beneficial ownership of one-tenth of a Class A Unit, Harold Brown may be deemed to beneficially own approximately 24,381 Class A Units (approximately 17.6% of the outstanding Class A Units) and the Trust may be deemed to beneficially own approximately 22,275 Class A Units (approximately 16.1% of the outstanding Class A Units). Mr. Brown currently has no voting or investment power over the Depositary Receipts held by the Trust and disclaims beneficial ownership of such Depositary Receipts. Sally E. Michael and Robert Somma, as trustees of the Trust (the Trustees), share voting and investment power over the Depositary Receipts held by the Trust, subject to the provisions of the Trust, and thus may each be deemed to beneficially own the 222,746 Depositary Receipts held by the Trust. The Trustees have no pecuniary interest in the Depositary Receipts held by the Trust and disclaim beneficial ownership of such Depositary Receipts.

(2) Consists of Class B Units held by the Trust. See Note (1) above. Harold Brown currently has no voting or investment power over the Class B Units held by the Trust and disclaims beneficial ownership of such Class B Units. The Trustees share voting and investment power over the Class B Units held by the Trust, subject to the provisions of the Trust, and thus may each be deemed to beneficially own the 24,761 Class B Units held by the Trust. The Trustees have no pecuniary interest in the Class B Units held by the Trust and disclaim beneficial ownership of such Class B Units.

(3) Since Harold Brown and Ronald Brown are the controlling stockholders, executive officers and directors of NewReal, Inc., they may be deemed to beneficially own all 1,738 of the General Partnership Units held of record by NewReal, Inc.

(4) Consists of 7,648 Depositary Receipts held of record jointly by Ronald Brown and his wife. Because a Depositary Receipt represents beneficial ownership of one-tenth of a Class A Unit, Ronald Brown may be deemed to beneficially own approximately 765 Class A Units.

(5) Consists of the Class A Units described in Notes (1) and (4) above, plus those held by Messrs. DiGregorio, Raffoul and Sarkisian, as indicated in the table.

(6) Includes the Class B Units described in Note (2) above.

(7) See Item 10, Compliance with Section 16(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

(8) Mr. Malcolm F. MacLean IV (Mr. MacLean) and Mr. David R. Jarvis (Mr. Jarvis) are the Managing Members of Mercury Advisors which act as investment advisors to Mercury Special Situations. As such, Messrs. MacLean and Jarvis are deemed to have complete discretion with respect to the depositary receipts of the issuer held by each entity. The information with respect to Mercury Advisors and Mercury Special Situations is based on the Schedule 13G/A dated December 31, 2006, filed by such entities, Mr. MacLean and Mr. Jarvis with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

On November 13, 2000, the Partnership adopted a Policy for Establishment of Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans. Pursuant to this Policy, the Partnership authorized its officers, directors and certain employees, shareholders and affiliates who are deemed insiders of the Partnership to adopt individual plans for trading the Partnerships securities (Trading Plans), and established certain procedural requirements relating to the establishment, modification and termination of such Trading Plans. On May 14, 2001, the Partnership approved a Trading Plan of Harold Brown, providing for the purchase of up to 20,000 Depositary Receipts of the Partnership as such become available during the period from May 14, 2001 through May 13, 2002. Mr. Brown amended and restated this Trading Plan on November 19, 2001 to increase the number of Depositary Receipts which were to be purchased pursuant thereto from 20,000 to 50,000, expanding the date through which purchases could be made to September 30, 2002, and to provide that purchases under his Trading Plan were to be made only if the price per Depositary Receipt was $45.00 or less. On November 4, 2005, Mr. Brown amended and restated the Trading Plan expanding the date through which Depositary Receipts may be purchased through September 30, 2007 for up to 50,000 Depositary Receipts at prices up to $100 each.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

The Partnership invested approximately $18,000,000 in seven limited liability companies formed to acquire Investment Properties. The Partnership has a 50% ownership interest in each of these limited liability companies accounted for on the equity method of consolidation. The majority stockholder of the General Partner owns between 43.2% and 47.5% and the President and five employees of the management company own between 6.8% and 2.5% in each of the Investment Properties. See Note 14 of the consolidated financial statements for a description of the Investment Properties.

On June 30, 2003, the Partnership purchased five condominium units from a group of investors who are also affiliated with the Partnership. The total purchase price for the five units was $2,421,286 including closing costs. The Partnership obtained a $1,600,000 mortgage on these condominiums. See Note 3 and 5 to the consolidated financial statements for a discussion of certain related parties associated with this acquisition and its financing. The majority owner of the General Partner has agreed to indemnify the Partnership for any losses incurred from the sale of any of these units for a three-year period from acquisition.

In December 2004, the Partnership sold 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 $6,000,000 and increased the Partnerships cash reserves by approximately $4,600,000 after payment of the existing $1,300,000 mortgage, prepayment penalties and other selling expenses. It was the buyers intent to sell the property as condominium units as soon as practical. An entity 31% owned by the majority shareholder of the General Partner and 5% owned by the President of the management company is the sales agent and received variable commissions of 3% to 5% on each sale. Although the buyer is assuming the costs and economic risks of converting and selling the condominium units, if the net gains from the sale of these units exceed $500,000, the excess will be split equally between the buyer and the Partnership.

See also Item 2. Properties, Item 10. Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant and Item 11. Executive Compensation for information regarding the fees paid to The Hamilton Company, an affiliate of the General Partner.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Partners New England Realty Associates Limited Partnership:

We have completed integrated audits of New England Realty Associates Limited Partnerships (the Partnership) 2006 and 2005 consolidated financial statements and of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006 in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Our opinions, based on our audits, are presented below.

Consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedules

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(1) present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of New England Realty Associates Limited Partnership and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedules listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2) present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. These financial statements and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Partnerships management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit of financial statements includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Internal control over financial reporting

Also, in our opinion, managements assessment, included in Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A, that the Partnership maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006 based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on those criteria. Furthermore, in our opinion, the Partnership maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the COSO. The Partnerships management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on managements assessment and on the effectiveness of the Partnerships internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit of internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. An audit of internal control over financial reporting includes obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating managements assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we consider necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.

SEQ.=1,FOLIO='',FILE='C:\fc\7216130178_D11089_1857291\5823-1-fa.htm',USER='jmsproofassembler',CD='Mar 13 16:13 2007'

A partnerships internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A partnerships internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the partnership; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the partnership are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the management of the partnership; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the partnerships assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

NEW ENGLAND REALTY ASSOCIATES LIMITED PARTNERSHIP AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2006

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. In connection with the mortgages referred to in Note 5, a substantial number of NERAs properties are owned by separate subsidiaries without any change in the historical cost basis.

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 seven limited liability companies (the Investment Properties) 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 limited liability companies using the equity method of consolidation. (See Note 14 for information on the Investment Properties).

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.

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.

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 assets 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.

NEW ENGLAND REALTY ASSOCIATES LIMITED PARTNERSHIP AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) DECEMBER 31, 2006

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 2006, 2005 or 2004 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 year 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 Partnerships 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 Partnerships revenues in 2006 or 2005. The Partnership makes its temporary cash investments with high-credit-quality financial institutions. At December 31, 2006, substantially all of the Partnerships cash and cash equivalents were held in interest-bearing accounts at financial institutions, earning interest at rates from 2.2% to 5.16%. At December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively, approximately $10,000,000 and $12,000,000 of cash and cash equivalents, and cash included in prepaid expenses and other assets exceeded federally insured amounts.

Advertising Expense: Advertising is expensed as incurred. Advertising expense was $149,799, $129,313 and $204,152 in 2006, 2005 and 2004, 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 managements opinion, the net sales price of the assets which have been identified as held for sale is less than the net book 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 Company 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 year ended December 31, 2006 and the year ended December 31, 2005, there was no capitalized interest.

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

NOTE 2. RENTAL PROPERTIES

As of December 31, 2006, the Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships owned 2,377 residential apartment units in 22 residential and mixed-use complexes (collectively, the Apartment Complexes). The Partnership also owns 24 condominium units in two residential condominium complexes, 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 December 31, 2006, the Subsidiary Partnerships owned a commercial shopping center in Framingham, Massachusetts and mixed-use properties in Boston, Brockton and Newton, Massachusetts. These properties are referred to collectively as the Commercial Properties.

Additionally, as of December 31, 2006, the Partnership owned a 50% ownership interest in seven residential and mixed use complexes (the Investment Properties) with a total of 503 units, accounted for using the equity method of consolidation. See Note 14 for summary information on these investments.

See Note 3 for a description of the sale of Middlesex Apartments to the majority shareholder of the General Partner in 2005.

The Partnerships 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 $1,296,878, $1,281,899 and $1,267,766 in 2006, 2005 and 2004, 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. In 2006, 2005 and 2004, approximately $472,000, $506,000 and $4,187,000, respectively, was charged to NERA for legal, accounting, construction, maintenance, rental and architectural services and supervision of capital improvements. Of the 2006 expenses referred to above, approximately $202,000 consisted of repairs and maintenance and $223,000 of administrative expense. Approximately $36,000 of expenses for construction, architectural services and supervision of capital projects was capitalized in rental properties.

Additionally in 2006, the Hamilton Company received approximately $1,090,000 from the Investment Properties of which approximately $360,000 was the management fee, $230,000 for construction costs, $20,000 was for construction supervision and architectural fees, $466,000 was for maintenance services and $13,000 was for administrative services. The Hamilton Company legal department acts as closing attorney on certain condo sales receiving approximately $88,000 during the year ended December 31, 2006. As more fully described in Note 14, an entity partially owned by the majority shareholder of the General Partner is the sales agent for certain condominium sales receiving approximately $213,000 of commissions in 2006.

On January 1, 2004, all employees were transferred to the management companys payroll. The Partnership reimburses the management company for the payroll and related expenses of the employees directly employed by the properties. Total reimbursement was approximately $2,259,000 for the year ended December 31, 2006. 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 2006, 2005, and 2004.

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 perform this service and receives an asset management fee from the Partnership, receiving $50,000 during the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.

The Partnership has invested in seven limited liability companies to purchase six residential apartment complexes (the Investment Properties). The Partnership owns 50% of each entity, the majority shareholder of the General Partner owns between 43.2% and 47.5% and the President of Hamilton owns between 2.5% and 4.5%, and five other management employees of Hamilton own collectively between 0% and 2.3% respectively. 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 Partnerships 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 majority shareholder of the general partner has guaranteed the $1,600,000 mortgage for these five units. The original mortgage of $1,600,000 has been

extended to August 2009. The mortgage rate of 6.5% is fixed for three years and the cost associated with this extension is approximately $8,000.

The above 42-unit condominium building is managed by an entity wholly owned by the 25% shareholder and President of the General Partner. That entity will receive annual management fees from the five units of approximately $1,500, and Hamilton will reduce its management fees to approximately 2%, so that the total management fee will not exceed the 4% allowed by the Partnerships 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 Partnerships cash reserves of approximately $4,800,000 after payment off the existing $1,300,000 mortgage, prepayment penalties and other selling expenses. The buyer is selling 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 is the sales agent and will receive a variable commission of 3% to 5% on each sale. Total commissions paid to date are approximately $138,000. Although the buyer is assuming the costs and economic risks of converting and selling the condominium units, if the net gains from the sale of these units exceed $500,000, the excess will be split equally between the buyer and the Partnership. The buyer estimated that the gain from the sale of these units would exceed $500,000. There is one remaining unit unsold at December 31, 2006.

NOTE 4. OTHER ASSETS

Included in prepaid expenses and other assets at December 31, 2006 and 2005 is approximately $250,000 and $313,000, respectively, held in escrow to fund future capital improvements.

NOTE 5. MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE

At December 31, 2006 and 2005, the mortgages payable consisted of various loans, all of which were secured by first mortgages on properties referred to in Note 2. At December 31, 2006, the fixed interest rates on these loans ranged from 4.84% to 8.46%, payable in monthly installments aggregating approximately $704,000, including interest, to various dates through 2016. The majority of the mortgages are subject to prepayment penalties. At December 31, 2006, the weighted average interest rate on the above mortgages was 6.63%. The effective rate of 6.72% 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.

NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, the Partnerships are involved in various ordinary routine litigation incidental to their business. The Partnership either has insurance coverage or has provided for any uninsured claims which, in the aggregate, are not significant. The Partnerships are not involved in any material pending legal proceedings.

2011	1,111,000
Thereafter	3,146,000
	$ 10,654,000

The aggregate minimum future rental income does not include contingent rentals that may be received under various leases in connection with percentage rents, common area charges and real estate taxes.

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.


Mortgage Notes Payable
At December 31,
2006	$ 114,659,052	$ 117,251,025
At December 31,
2005	$ 115,585,241	$ 119,817,130

Disclosure about fair value of financial instruments is based on pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2006 and 2005. 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, 2006 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 accelerated depreciation, different tax lives, and timing differences related to prepaid rents and allowances. Taxable income is approximately $700,000 greater than statement income for the year ended December 31, 2006 and approximately $13,000 less than statement income for the year ended December 31, 2005. The cumulative tax basis of the Partnerships real estate at December 31, 2006 is approximately $1,100,000 greater than the statement basis. The Partnerships tax basis in its joint venture investments is approximately $400,000 less than statement basis. The depreciation rules that generated substantial tax deductions in 2004 and 2003 expired in 2004, accordingly taxable income in future years may exceed statement income.

Taxable income	2006 — Total	Per Receipt	2005 — Total	Per Receipt	2004 — Total	Per Receipt
Ordinary income	$ 2,129,222	$ 1.23	$ 3,128,988	$ 2.26	$ 202,698	$ 0.15

five other employees of the Management Company. Harold Browns ownership interest is between 43.2% and 47.5%, with the balance of 6.8% and 2.5% owned by others. A description of each investment is as follows:

On March 7, 2005, the Partnership invested $2,000,000 for a 50% ownership interest in a building comprising 49 apartments, one commercial space and a 50-car surface parking lot located in Boston, Massachusetts. The purchase price was $14,300,000, and a $10,750,000 30-month mortgage with a floating interest rate (7.35%) of 2% over the 30 day Libor Index (5.35% at December 31, 2006) was obtained to finance this acquisition. The Partnership plans to operate the building and initiate development of the parking lot. The plan may also include disposition of selected units, as condominiums in order to reduce the above mentioned mortgage. Any profits from the condominium sales will be taxed at ordinary rates. Mr. Brown has guaranteed 25% of this mortgage until such time as $2,687,500 of principal has been paid. The Partnership and the other investor have, in turn agreed to indemnify Mr. Brown for their proportional share of any losses incurred by this guarantee. This investment is referred to as Essex Street.

On March 2, 2005, the Partnership invested $2,352,000 for a 50% ownership interest in a 176-unit apartment complex with an additional small commercial building located in Quincy, Massachusetts. The purchase price was $23,750,000, and a $19,200,000 30-month mortgage with a floating interest rate (7.35%) of 2% over the 30 day Libor Index (5.35% at December 31, 2006) was obtained to finance this acquisition. The Partnership plans to sell the majority of units as condominiums and retain 48 units for long-term investment. The Partnership obtained a new 10-year mortgage in the amount of $5,000,000 on the units to be retained by the Partnership. The interest on the new loan is 5.67% fixed for the 10 year term with interest only payments for five years and amortized over a 30 year period for the balance of the loan term. The closing costs associated with the new mortgage were approximately $50,000, which will be amortized over the 10-year term. The loan is due in 2016 and will close in the fourth quarter of 2006. As of December 31, 2006, 110 units have been sold, and two units have a signed purchase and sales agreement. Gains from the sales of units (approximately $55,000 per unit) will be taxed at ordinary income rates. This investment is referred to as Hamilton 1025, LLC.

On October 3, 2005, the Partnership invested $2,500,000 for a 50% ownership interest in a 168-unit apartment complex in Quincy, Massachusetts. The purchase price was $30,875,000 and a $26,165,127 30-month mortgage with a floating interest rate (7.35%) of 2% over the 30 day Libor Index (5.35% at December 31, 2006) was obtained to finance this acquisition. The Partnership plans to sell the majority of units as condominium and retain 48 units for long-term investment. The proceeds from the condominium sales are primarily to be used to reduce the above-mentioned mortgage. Gains from the sales of units will be taxed at ordinary income rates (approximately $51,000 per unit). As of December 31, 2006, 52 units have been sold and an additional five units have a signed purchase and sales agreement. In February 2007, the Partnership refinanced the 48 units which will be retained with a new mortgage in the amount of $4,750,000 with an interest rate of 5.57%, interest only for five years and amortized over 30 years thereafter. The loan will be amortized over 30 years and matures in March 2017. The balance on the original loan on the units held for sale is approximately $10,481,000. This investment is referred to as Hamilton Bay, LLC.

In September 2004, the Partnership invested approximately $5,075,000 for a 50% ownership interest in a 42-unit apartment complex located in Lexington, Massachusetts.

returned $3,775,000 to the Partnership. The Partnership obtained a new 10-year mortgage in the amount of $5,500,000. The interest on the new loan is 5.67% fixed for the 10 year term with interest only payments for five years and amortized over a 30 year period for the balance of the loan. This new loan required a cash contribution by the Partnership of $1,250,000. The closing costs associated with the new mortgage were approximately $37, 000, which will be amortized over the 10-year term. The unamortized deferred financing costs of approximately $30,000 will be written off in the first quarter of 2007. This investment is referred to as Hamilton Minuteman, LLC.

In August 2004, the Partnership invested $8,000,000 for a 50% ownership interest in a 280-unit apartment complex located in Watertown, Massachusetts. The total purchase price was $56,000,000. The Partnership plans to sell, over time, three buildings with a total of 137 units as condominiums commencing in January 2005. As of December 31, 2006, 93 units have been sold and an additional 3 units were under contract. Gains from these sales will be taxed as ordinary income (approximately $60,000 per unit). The majority of the sales proceeds will be used to reduce the mortgage. An entity partially owned by the majority shareholder of the General Partner and the President of the management company, 31% and 5% respectively, is the sales agent and will receive a variable commission on each sale of 3% to 5%. This investment is referred to as Hamilton On Main, LLC.

In 2005, Hamilton on Main, LLC obtained a new 10 year mortgage on the three buildings to be retained. The new mortgage is $16,825,000, with interest only of 5.18% for three years and amortizing on a 30 year schedule for the remaining seven years when the balance is due. The net proceeds after funding escrow accounts and closing costs on the new mortgage were approximately $16,700,000, which were used to reduce the existing mortgage. Hamilton on Main, LLC paid a fee of approximately $400,000 in connection with this early extinguishment of debt.

In November 2001, the Partnership formed a limited liability company to purchase a 40-unit apartment building in Cambridge, Massachusetts. This property has a 12-year mortgage, which is amortized on a 30-year schedule, with a final payment of approximately $6,000,000 in 2014. The Partnership is a 50% owner in this investment and is referred to as 345 Franklin, LLC.

As required by the lender for the 2004 and 2005 acquisitions, the Treasurer of the General Partner has provided a limited repayment guaranty equal to fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding balance, reducing to zero percent (0%) upon the completion of the Curtailment Payments. In the event that he is obligated to make payments to the lender as a result of this guaranty, the Partnership and other investors have, in turn, agreed to indemnify him for their proportionate share of any such payments.

NOTE 15. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2005, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, and FASB Statement No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements. FASB Statement No. 154 changes the requirement for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. This Statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle. It also applies to changes required by an accounting pronouncement in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions. When a pronouncement includes specific transition provisions, those provisions should be followed. FASB Statement No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005.

In March 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB or the Board) issued final guidance that clarifies how companies should account for conditional asset retirement obligations (AROs). FASB Interpretation No. 47 Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations (FIN 47 or the Interpretation), deals with obligations to perform asset retirement activities in which the timing and (or) method of settlement are conditional on a future event (e.g., legal requirements surrounding asbestos handling and disposal that are triggered by demolishing or renovating a facility). The new guidance will likely require many companies to recognize liabilities for these obligations. In implementing the new guidance, which must be adopted by calendar year enterprises by December 31, 2005, a company will need to identify its conditional AROs and determine whether it can reasonably estimate the fair value of each obligation. If the company can reasonably estimate the fair value of an obligation, it will need to recognize a liability for that obligation based on its current present value. This liability would then accrete to the ultimate liability over the service period (adjusted periodically for changes in estimates). We have reviewed tangible long-lived assets and other agreements for associated AROs in accordance with this Interpretation and have concluded that we do not have any material AROs that would require recognition as a liability or disclosure in our financial statements at December 31, 2006.

In June 2005, the FASB ratified the consensus reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) regarding EITF 04-05, Investors Accounting for an Investment in a Limited Partnership When the Investor is the Sole General Partner and the Limited Partners Have Certain Rights. The conclusion provides a framework for addressing the question of when a sole general partner, as defined in EITF 04-05, should consolidate a limited partnership. The EITF has concluded that the general partner of a limited partnership should consolidate a limited partnership, unless the limited partners have either (a) the substantive ability to dissolve the limited partnership or otherwise remove the general partner without cause, or (b) substantive participating rights. In addition, the EITF concluded that the guidance should be expanded to include all limited partnerships, including those with multiple general partners. We adopted EITF 04-05 as of January 1, 2006. We have assessed our investments in unconsolidated real estate joint ventures and have determined that EITF 04-05 did not have an impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157). SFAS No. 157 provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. This statement clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. SFAS No. 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy, giving the highest

NEW ENGLAND REALTY ASSOCIATES LIMITED PARTNERSHIP AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) DECEMBER 31, 2006

priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data. SFAS No. 157 applies whenever other standards require assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. This statement is effective in fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We believe that the adoption of this standard on January 1, 2008 will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (SAB 108), which becomes effective for the first fiscal period ending after November 15, 2006. SAB 108 provides guidance on the consideration of the effects of prior period misstatements in quantifying current year misstatements for the purpose of a materiality assessment. SAB 108 provides for the quantification of the impact of correcting all misstatements, including both the carryover and reversing effects of prior year misstatements, on the current year financial statements. The adoption of SAB 108 on December 21, 2006 did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS No. 159). SFAS No. 159 expands opportunities to use fair value measurement in financial reporting and permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. This Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We have not decided if we will early adopt SFAS No. 159 or if we will choose to measure any eligible financial assets and liabilities at fair value.
