ITEM 2.    ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

On January 5, 1999, Factual Data Corp. (the "Company") closed its acquisition of
the assets of Oxbow  Enterprises,  Inc.  ("Oxbow") pursuant to an Asset Purchase
Agreement  (the  "Agreement").  The Company and its  franchisees  and  licensees
provide information services, including mortgage credit reports, to mortgage and
consumer  lenders,  employment  screening  services  ("EMPfacts") and credit and
tenant  screening  services  ("QUICKpeek  Tenant").  Oxbow is  headquartered  in
Brookfield, Wisconsin and operates in Wisconsin and Illinois.

Pursuant to the Agreement,  the Company acquired the assets of Oxbow in exchange
for $300,000 cash (subject to adjustment for  receivables,  payables and closing
items) and a $170,000 promissory note payable over twenty quarters with interest
at 8% per annum. In connection with the acquisition,  the Company obtained three
year non-competition agreements with the owners of Oxbow.

ITEM 7.    FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS

      (a)  Although the acquisition  meets the 10% materiality test for purposes
           of Item 2 of  this  Report,  none of the  tests  in Rule  3-05(b)  of
           Regulation   S-X  were  exceeded,   hence  no  historical   financial
           statements of the business acquired are included herein.

      (b)  None of the tests set forth in Rule 11-01(b) of  Regulation  S-X were
           exceeded,  hence no pro  forma  financial  statement  information  is
           included herein.

      (c)  Exhibits.

           2.1*   Asset Purchase  Agreement  between Factual Data Corp.
                  and Oxbow Enterprises, Inc. dated January 4, 1999.
