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 includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

HAMILTON PARK TOWERS LLC

(Unconsolidated Significant Joint Venture)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2013

NOTE 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

        Line of Business:    Hamilton Park Towers LLC, (the "Joint Venture" or the "Property"), was organized in Massachusetts in 2009. The Joint Venture owns and operates 409 residential apartment units located in Brookline, Massachusetts. The Joint Venture is owned 40% by New England Realty Associates Limited Partnership ("NERA") and is a "significant unconsolidated subsidiary" under Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X requiring separated financial statements.

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

        Revenue Recognition:    Rental income from residential properties is recognized over the term of the related leases. For residential tenants, amounts 60 days in arrears are charged against income. Concessions made on residential leases are accounted for on the straight-line basis.

        Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are initially recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the differences between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management's estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed-rate renewal options for below-market leases. The capitalized above-market lease values for acquired properties are amortized as a reduction of base rental revenue over the remaining term of the respective leases, and the capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to base rental revenue over the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market fixed-rate renewal options of the respective leases.

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

        Upon acquisition of rental property, the Joint Venture estimated the fair value of acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities assumed, generally consisting of the fair value of (i) above and below market leases, (ii) in-place leases and (iii) tenant relationships. The Joint Venture allocated the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values. The Joint Venture records goodwill or a gain on bargain purchase (if any) if the net assets acquired/liabilities assumed exceed the purchase consideration of a transaction. In estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired, the Joint Venture considers information obtained about each property as a result of its due diligence and marketing and

leasing activities, and utilizes various valuation methods, such as estimates cash flow projections utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates, estimates of replacement costs net of depreciation, and available market information. The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it is vacant.

        Other intangible assets acquired include amounts for in-place lease values and tenant relationship values, which are based on management's evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant's lease and the Joint Venture's overall relationship with the respective tenant. Factors to be considered by management in its analysis of in-place lease values include an estimate of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, depending on local market conditions. In estimating costs to execute similar leases, management considers leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses. Characteristics considered by management in valuing tenant relationships include the nature and extent of the Joint Venture's existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant's credit quality and expectations of lease renewals. The value of in-place leases are amortized to expense over the remaining initial terms of the respective leases. The value of tenant relationship intangibles are amortized to expense over the anticipated life of the relationships.

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

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

        Income Taxes:    The financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the joint venture is entitled to tax treatment as a partnership. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded. (See note 10)

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

        Comprehensive Income:    Comprehensive income is defined as changes in members' equity, exclusive of transactions with owners (such as capital contributions and dividends). The Joint Venture did not have any comprehensive income items in 2013, 2012, or 2011 other than net income as reported.

        Concentration of Credit Risks and Financial Instruments:    The Joint Venture property is located in Brookline, Massachusetts, and is subject to the general economic risks related thereto. No single tenant accounted for more than 5% of the revenues in 2013, 2012 or 2011. The Joint Venture makes its temporary cash investments with high-credit-quality financial institutions. At December 31, 2013 and

2012, respectively approximately $1,605,000 and $1,571,000 of cash and cash equivalents, and security deposits included in prepaid expenses and other assets exceeded federally insured amounts.

        Advertising Expense:    Advertising is expensed as incurred. Advertising expense was $9,000 in 2013, $14,000 in 2012 and $27,000 in 2011.

        Interest Capitalized:    The Joint Venture 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 years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 there was no capitalized interest.

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

        Subsequent Events:    The Joint Venture has evaluated subsequent events through March 18, 2014, the date the financial statements were issued.

DECEMBER 31, 2013

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)

Financial Assets and Liabilities not Measured at Fair Value

        At December 31, 2013 and 2012 the carrying amounts of certain of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and note payable, accounts payable and accrued expenses were representative of their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments or, the recent acquisition of these items.

        At December 31, 2013 and 2012, we estimated the fair value of our mortgage payable based upon quoted market prices for the same (Level 1) or similar (Level 2) issues when current quoted market prices are available. We estimated the fair value of our secured mortgage debt that does not have current quoted market prices available by discounting the future cash flows using rates currently available to us for debt with similar terms and maturities (Level 3). The differences in the fair value of our debt from the carrying value are the result of differences in interest rates and/or borrowing spreads that were available to us at December 31, 2013 and 2012, as compared with those in effect when the debt was issued or acquired.

NOTE 10. TAXABLE INCOME AND TAX BASIS
