PART 1
ITEM 1 - BUSINESS
The ADVANTA Revolving Home Equity Loan Trust 1996-A, (the "Trust" or
"Issuer") is a New York common law trust established as of November 1,
1996, pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement (the "Pooling and
Servicing Agreement") between ADVANTA Mortgage Conduit Services, Inc.
as sponsors (the "Sponsor") and ADVANTA Mortgage Corp. USA as Master
Servicer (the "Master Servicer") (together, the "Companies") and Bankers
Trust Company, acting thereunder not in its individual capacity but solely as
trustee (the "Trustee"). The Issuer's only purpose is the issuance of
$50,000,000.00 principal amount of ADVANTA Home Equity Loan Pass-
Through Certificates, Series 1996-A, Class A (the "Cert-
ificates") and the subordinated residual certificates pursuant to the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement. On November 22, 1996, the Sponsor sold
$50,000,000.00 aggregate principal amount of mortgage loans (the "Mort-
gage Loans"), to the Issuer in exchange for the Certificates, and sold the
Certificates pursuant to a public offering, the underwriting of which was
managed by Lehman Brothers.
The Mortgage Loans and the distributions thereon,
along with certain insurance proceeds, certain proceeds obtained on foreclosure
and any investment income earned thereon, are the only significant assets of
the Issuer. The Certificates represent obligations solely of the Issuer. The
Certificates were registered under a Registration Statement (file no. 33-99510)
on Form S-3 declared effective on September 6, 1996.
ITEM 2 - PROPERTIES
The Issuer neither owns nor leases any physical properties.
ITEM 3 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Master Servicer is not aware of any material pending legal proceedings
involving either the Issuer, the Trustee, the Sponsor or the Master Servicer
with respect to the Certificates or the Issuer's property.
ITEM 4 - SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
No matter has been submitted to a vote of the holders of beneficial interests
in the Issuer through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise.
PART II
ITEM 5 - MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON STOCK AND RELATED STOCK-
HOLDER MATTERS
The Trust is not an issuer of common stock in a corporation, although the
Certificates represent equity interest that has voting rights. The equity of
the Trust consists of the beneficial or ownership interest therein for which,
to the best knowledge of the Master Servicer, there is no established
public trading market.
As of July 7, 1998, there were approximately 3 holders of the Class A-1
Certificates. The number of holders includes individual participants in
security position listings. As of December 26, 1996, 1 monthly distribution
had been made to the holders of the Certificates.
ITEM 6 - SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
Not applicable.
ITEM 7 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATION
On November 22, 1996, the Issuer issued $50,000,000.00 aggregate
principal amount of Class A-1 Certificates having a variable monthly rate,
which are collateralized by Mortgage Loans.
The sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Issuer, the issuance of the Certificates
and the simultaneous delivery of the Certificates to the Companies for sale
pursuant to a public offering, the underwriting of which was co-managed by
Lehman Brothers has been accounted for as a sale of the Certificates. The value
of the Certificates issued by the Issuer equaled the value of the Mortgage Loans
conveyed to the Issuer by the Companies, plus funds held in the Prefunding
Account (if any) and subsequently used to acquire additional mortgage loans.
Accordingly, there was no income, expense, gain or loss resulting from
the aforementioned transaction.
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
The Issuer's primary sources of funds with respect to the Certificates will be
receipts of interest on and principal of the Mortgage Loans, along with certain
insurance proceeds, certain proceeds obtained on foreclosure and any
investment income earned thereon. The respective management's of the
Companies believe that the Issuer will have sufficient liquidity and capital
resources to pay all amounts on the Certificates as they become due and
all other anticipated expenses of the Issuer. The Issuer does not have, nor
will it have in the future, any significant source of capital for payment of the
Certificates and its operating expenses other than the receipt of interest on
and principal of the mortgage loans, certain insurance proceeds and certain
proceeds obtained on foreclosure and any payments made by the Certificate
Insurer. The Issuer is a limited purpose trust. The Certificates represent
obligations solely of the Issuer.
ITEM 8 - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
Not applicable.
ITEM 9 - CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON
ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
There were no changes of accountants or disagreements on accounting or
financial disclosures between the Issuer and its accountants.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To ADVANTA Mortgage Corp. USA:
We have examined management's assertion about Advanta Mortgage Corp. USA's compliance
with the minimum servicing standards identified in the Mortgage Bankers Association of
America's Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers (USAP) and that
Advanta Mortgage Corp. USA had in effect fidelity bond coverage in the amount of $15 million
and mortgage contingent liability protection coverage in the amount of $2 million as of and for
the year ended December 31, 1996 included in the accompanying management assertion.
Management is responsible for Advanta Mortgage Corp. USA's compliance with those
minimum servicing standards and for maintaining fidelity bond and mortgage contingent
liability protection coverage policies. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
management's assertion about the entity's compliance with the minimum servicing standards
and maintenance of fidelity bond and mortgage contingent liability protection coverage policies
based on our examination.
Our examination was made in accordance with standards established by the American Institute
of Certified Public Accountants and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence
about Advanta Mortgage Corp. USA's compliance with the minimum servicing standards and
performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We
believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our examination
does not provide a legal determination on Advanta Mortgage Corp. USA's compliance with the
minimum servicing standards.
In our opinion, management's assertion that Advanta Mortgage Corp. USA complied with the
aforementioned minimum servicing standards and that Advanta Mortgage Corp. USA had in
effect fidelity bond coverage in the amount of $15 million and mortgage contingent liability
protection coverage in the amount of $2 million as of and for the year ended December 31, 1996
is fairly stated, in all material respects.
