                                EXPLANATORY NOTE

      This Current Report on Form 8-K/A amends and restates in its entirety Item
7 of the Current Report on Form 8-K of American Home Mortgage Holdings, Inc.
(the "Company"), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February
1, 2000 (the "Original 8-K").

      THE PROFORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL DATA SET FORTH HEREIN GIVE EFFECT TO THE
PENDING MERGER OF AMERICAN HOME MORTGAGE HOLDINGS, INC. ("AMERICAN HOME") AND
FIRST HOME MORTGAGE CORP., INC. AS OF MARCH 31, 2000 THIS MERGER HAD NOT BEEN
COMPLETED, AND REMAINS SUBJECT TO CERTAIN CLOSING CONDITIONS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT
LIMITED TO, REGULATORY APPROVALS. AMERICAN HOME CURRENTLY ANTICIPATES THAT THE
MERGER WILL BE CONSUMMATED LATE IN THE SECOND QUARTER OF 2000, BUT THERE CAN BE
NO ASSURANCES THAT THE MERGER WILL BE CONSUMMATED BY SUCH TIME, OR AT ALL.

                           FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

      This Form 8-K/A contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning
of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which are intended to be covered by
the safe harbors created thereby. The words "believe," "will be able," or
similar words are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such
statements involve risks and uncertainties that exist in the Company's
operations and business environment that could render actual outcomes and
results materially different than predicted. The Company's forward-looking
statements are based on assumptions about many factors, including, but not
limited to, general volatility of the capital markets; changes in the real
estate market, interest rates or the general economy of the markets in which the
Company operates; economic, technological or regulatory changes affecting the
use of the Internet and changes in government regulations that are applicable to
the Company's regulated brokerage and property management businesses. These and
other factors are more fully discussed in the Company's prospectus filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission as part of its Registration Statement on
Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-82409). While the Company believes that its
assumptions are reasonable at the time forward-looking statements were made, it
cautions that it is impossible to predict the actual outcome of numerous factors
and, therefore, readers should not place undue reliance on such statements.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and the
Company undertakes no obligation to update such statements in light of new
information or future events.

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
of First Home Mortgage Corporation and Subsidiaries
Mount Prospect, Illinois


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of First Home
Mortgage Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the
related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income,
stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated
financial statements are the responsibility of the company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of First Home Mortgage Corporation
and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of its
operations, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then
ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                FIRST HOME MORTGAGE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           DECEMBER 31, 1999 AND 1998


NOTE 1 -  Nature of operations and significant accounting policies
          --------------------------------------------------------

          Nature of operations
          --------------------

          The company is a wholesale mortgage banker. The company also performs
          the services of a mortgage broker. It is licensed in the states of
          Illinois, Wisconsin, Arizona, Connecticut, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana and
          Texas. The subsidiary companies are licencsed in the states of New
          Mexico and Arizona.

          In 1999, the company originated over $1,000,000,000 in new loans and
          closed approximately $718,000,000 in its retail division. The
          wholesale division closed $801,000,000 of new loans during 1999.

          In 1998, the company originated over $1,100,000,000 in new loans and
          closed approximately $787,000,000 in its retail division. The
          wholesale division closed $1,095,000,000 in new loans during 1998.

          The subsidiary companies originated approximately $41,000,000 of loans
          for the period April 16, 1999 through December 31, 1999.

          The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:

          Principles of consolidation
          ---------------------------

          The 1999 consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
          company and its 50.01% owned subsidiaries, PHS Mortgage Company and
          Harvard Mortgage Company Limited Parnership beginning on April 16,
          1999, the date of acquisition. All significant intercompany accounts
          and transactions have been eliminated.

          Method of accounting
          --------------------

          The company prepares its financial statements on the accrual basis of
          accounting. Commission income is recognized upon closing of a
          mortgage, application income is recognized upon receipt of funds, and
          related application fee disbursements are recognized as the liability
          is incurred. Fees end service release and discount premium received
          for the funding of mortgages held for sale to investors are recognized
          when the mortgages are sold to the investor.

          Use of estimates
          ----------------

          The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with
          generally accepted accounting principles 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 reported amounts of
          revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
          could differ from those estimates.

          Cash and cash equivalents
          -------------------------

          Cash and cash equivalents include checking accounts, money market
          accounts and short-term certificates of deposit.

          (Nasdaq/AHMH)("American Home"), an unrelated mortgage company, to sell
          all of their stock in the company in exchange for cash and stock of
          American Home. First Home would then be merged into American Home
          Mortgage Sub II, Inc. a wholly-owned subsidiary of American Home.

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
of First Home Mortgage Corporation
Mount Prospect, Illinois


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of First Home Mortgage
Corporation as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related statements of
income and comprehensive income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the
years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
and Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the
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 includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of First Home Mortgage Corporation
as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of its operations, changes in
stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.


In accordance with Government Auditing Standards and the Consolidated Audit
Guide for Audits of HUD Programs issued by the U.S. Department of Housing and
Urban Development, we have also issued a report dated February 18, 1999, on our
consideration of the company's internal control and a report dated February 18,
1999, on its compliance with specific requirements applicable to major HUD
programs.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1997


NOTE 1 -  Nature of operations and significant accounting policies
          --------------------------------------------------------

          Nature of operations
          --------------------

          The company is a wholesale mortgage banker. The company also performs
          the services of a mortgage broker. Substantially all of its operations
          are in Northeastern Illinois. It is licensed in the states of
          Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, Texas, Kentucky, Arkansas, Missouri and
          Kansas.

          In 1998, the company originated over $1,100,000,000 in new loans and
          closed approximately $787,000,000 in its retail division. The
          wholesale division closed $1,095,000,000 in new loans during 1998.

          In 1997, the company originated over $624,000,000 in new loans and
          closed approximately $395,400,000 in its retail division. The
          wholesale division closed $432,000,000 of new loans during 1997.

          The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:

          Method of accounting
          --------------------

          The company prepares its financial statements on the accrual basis of
          accounting. Commission income is recognized upon closing of a
          mortgage, application income is recognized upon receipt of funds, and
          related application fee disbursements are recognized as the liability
          is incurred. Fees and service release and discount premium received
          for the funding of mortgages held for sale to investors are recognized
          when the mortgages are sold to the investor.

          Use of estimates
          ----------------

          The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with
          generally accepted accounting principles 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 reported amounts of
          revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
          could differ from those estimates.

          Cash and cash equivalents
          -------------------------

          Cash and cash equivalents include checking accounts, money market
          accounts and short-term certificates of deposit.

          Investments
          -----------

          The investment in marketable securities is classified as
          available-for-sale and is recorded at fair market value. The
          corresponding unrealized gain is recorded as a separate component of
          stockholders' equity.

          Income taxes
          ------------

          The stockholders of the company have elected to be treated as an "S"
          Corporation under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.
          Accordingly, each stockholder will report his pro rata share of the
          taxable income of the corporation on his individual income tax return.

          Advertising
          -----------

          Advertising costs, which are principally included in selling expenses,
          are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense was $167,105 and
          $117,165 for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

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




  To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
  of First Home Mortgage Corporation
  Mount Prospect, Illinois



  Our report on our audit of the basic financial statements of FIRST HOME
  MORTGAGE CORPORATION for the year ended December 31, 1998, is presented in the
  preceding section of this report. That audit was conducted for the purpose of
  forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The
  accompanying supplementary computation of adjusted net worth and schedule of
  operating expenses are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and to
  comply with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's reporting
  requirements and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.
  Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the
  audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated
  in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken
  as a whole.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED
                     PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS ON INTERNAL CONTROL
                     ---------------------------------------




To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
of First Home Mortgage Corporation
Mount Prospect, Illinois

We have audited the financial statements of First Home Mortgage Corporation as
of and for the year ended December 31,1998, and have issued our report thereon
dated February 18, 1999. We have also audited First Home Mortgage Corporation's
compliance with requirements applicable to major HUD-assisted programs and have
issued our report thereon dated February 18, 1999.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of
the United States, and the Consolidated Audit Guide for Audits OF HUD Programs
(the "Guide"), issued by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development,
Office of the Inspector General. Those standards and the Guide require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement and about whether the
company complied with laws and regulations, noncompliance with which would be
material to a major HUD-assisted program.

The management of First Home Mortgage Corporation is responsible for
establishing and maintaining internal control. In fulfilling this
responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the
expected benefits and related costs of controls. The objectives of internal
control are to provide management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance
that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition,
that transactions are executed in accordance with management's authorization
and recorded properly to permit the preparation of financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that HUD-assisted
programs are managed in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Because
of inherent limitations in any internal control, errors, irregularities, or
instances of noncompliance may nevertheless occur and not be detected. Also,
projection of any evaluation of internal control to future periods is subject to
the risk that procedures may become inadequate because of changes in conditions
or that the effectiveness of the design and operation of controls may
deteriorate.

In planning and performing our audits, we obtained an understanding of the
design of relevant internal controls and determined whether they had been placed
in operation, and we assessed control risk in order to determine our auditing
procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the company's financial
statements and on its compliance with specific requirements applicable to its
major HUD-assisted programs and to report on internal control in accordance with
the provisions of the Guide and not to provide any assurance on internal
control.


<PAGE>


                                    PAGE TWO


We performed tests of controls, as required by the Guide, to evaluate the
effectiveness of the design and operation of controls that we considered
relevant to preventing or detecting material noncompliance with specific
requirements applicable to the company's major HUD-assisted programs. Our
procedures were less in scope than would be necessary to render an opinion on
internal control. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Our consideration of the internal control would not necessarily disclose all
matters in internal control that might be material weaknesses under standards
established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A
material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more
of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the
risk that errors or irregularities in amounts that would be material in relation
to the financial statements or that noncompliance with laws and regulations that
would be material to a HUD-assisted program may occur and not be detected within
a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned
functions. We noted no matters involving internal control and its operation that
we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of the audit
committee, board of directors, management, and the Department of Housing and
Urban Development and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone
other than these specified parties.

               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
                    ON COMPLIANCE WITH SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS
                        APPLICABLE TO MAJOR HUD PROGRAMS
               --------------------------------------------------



To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
of First Home Mortgage Corporation
Mount Prospect, Illinois


We have audited the financial statements of First Home Mortgage Corporation as
of and for the year ended December 31, 1998, and have issued our report thereon
dated February 18, 1999.

We have also audited the company's compliance with the specific program
requirements governing the quality control plan, branch office operations, loan
origination, loan settlement, federal financial and activity reports, kickbacks
and mortgage approval requirements that are applicable to its major HUD-assisted
program for the year ended December 31, 1998. The management of First Home
Mortgage Corporation is responsible for compliance with those requirements. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance with those requirements
based on our audit.

We conducted our audit of compliance with those requirements in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, issued by
the Comptroller General of the United States, and the Consolidated Audit Guide
for Audits of HUD Programs (the "Guide") issued by the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development, Office of the Inspector General. Those standards
and the Guide require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether material noncompliance with the requirements referred to
above occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the
company's compliance with those requirements. We believe that our audit provides
a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, First Home Mortgage Corporation complied, in all material
respects, with the requirements described above that are applicable to its major
HUD-assisted program for the year ended December 31, 1998.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of the audit
committee, board of directors, management, and the Department of Housing and
Urban Development and is not intended to be and should be not be used by anyone
other than these specified parties.

THE PROFORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL DATA SET FORTH HEREIN GIVE EFFECT TO THE PENDING
MERGER OF AMERICAN HOME MORTGAGE HOLDINGS, INC. ("AMERICAN HOME") AND FIRST HOME
MORTGAGE CORP., INC. AS OF MARCH 31, 2000 THIS MERGER HAD NOT BEEN COMPLETED,
AND REMAINS SUBJECT TO CERTAIN CLOSING CONDITIONS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED
TO, REGULATORY APPROVALS. AMERICAN HOME CURRENTLY ANTICIPATES THAT THE MERGER
WILL BE CONSUMMATED LATE IN THE SECOND QUARTER OF 2000, BUT THERE CAN BE NO
ASSURANCES THAT THE MERGER WILL BE CONSUMMATED BY SUCH TIME, OR AT ALL.

The pro forma combined financial data set forth herein give effect to the

First Home Mortgage Corp., Inc ("First Home") as if the merger had been
consummated on January 1, 1997 for income statement information and December 31,
1999 for balance sheet information. As of March 31, 2000 this merger had not
been completed. This pro forma also gives effect to the merger with Marina

and Exchange Commission on March 14, 2000 and is hereby incorporated by
reference. The unaudited pro forma combined consolidated balance sheet as of
December 31, 1999 and the unaudited pro forma combined consolidated statements
of income for the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999 are based
upon the historical consolidated financial statements of American Home as

These unaudited pro forma combined financial statements are not necessarily
indicative of the operating results that would have been achieved had the
American Home/First Home merger been consummated as of the beginning of the
periods presented and should not be construed as representative of future
operating results. These unaudited pro forma combined financial statements give
effect to the American Home/First Home merger by combining the results of

(3)         Per Share Data is calculated using pro forma net income, which
            accounts for American Home Mortgage's S-Corporation status prior to
            their Initial Public Offering.

                                             1999        1998        1997

            FIRST HOME MORTGAGE CORP.     $  (9,075)  $1,536,000   $ 763,550

            Prior to the fourth quarter of 1999, American Home had elected to be
            taxed as an S-Corporation. Pro forma taxes reflect an additional
            provision for taxes as if American Home had been a C-Corporation for
            the entire year in 1999, 1998 and 1997. The provision in 1999
            excludes a $625,000 one-time non-cash, non-recurring tax expense
            resulting from the conversion from the S-Corporation to
            C-Corporation status.

(4)         Average common shares used to calculate net income per common share
            for the each of the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997
            were calculated using the following information:
