                                  ------------

                               The WMF Group, Ltd.
                               -------------------

                                 Amendment No. 3
                                 ---------------

This Amendment No. 3 hereby amends the initial Schedule 13D filed on July 10,
1998, Amendment No. 1 to the initial Schedule 13D filed on September 25, 1998
and Amendment No. 2 to the initial Schedule 13D filed on January 11, 1999.


Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
         --------------------------------------------------

        Item 3 is amended by adding the following thereto:

        On January 13, 1999, Demeter and Phemus received notice of early
termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act, in connection with the HSR
Act notification which the parties filed with the Federal Trade Commission and
the Department of Justice on December 31, 1998. In accordance with the terms of
the Issuer's Class A Preferred, upon receipt of such notice of early
termination, the outstanding shares of Class A Preferred were converted on a
one-for-one basis into shares of the Issuer's common stock. Consequently,
Demeter and Phemus acquired 2,757,633 shares and 151,145 shares, respectively,
of the Issuer's common stock on January 13, 1999, upon the conversion, on a
one-for-one basis, of the 2,757,633 shares and 151,145 shares of Class A
Preferred held by Demeter and Phemus, respectively.

        All shares issued to Demeter and Phemus pursuant to the foregoing will
have registration rights pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as
of June 12, 1998 and amended as of October 16, 1998, among the Issuer, HPCH,
Capricorn, Demeter and Phemus.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
         -------------------------------------

        Item 5, paragraphs (a) and (c) are amended to read as follows:

        (a) Charlesbank is deemed to be the beneficial owner of 4,894,680 shares
of common stock (approximately 54.8% of the shares of common stock based on the
most recent filing of the Issuer with the SEC plus the 3,635,972 shares of
common stock which are outstanding following the conversion of the Class A
Preferred and including shares of common stock of which Harvard and its
affiliates have the right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days).

        (c)    See response to Item 3 above.
