INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT

The Board of Directors
Long Beach Mortgage Company

     We have examined management's assertion about Long Beach Mortgage Company's
compliance  with the minimum  servicing  standards  identified  in the  Mortgage
Bankers Association of America's Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage
Bankers (USAP) as of and for the year ended  December 31, 1999,  included in the
accompanying  management  assertion.  Management is  responsible  for Long Beach
Mortgage  Company's  compliance  with those  minimum  servicing  standards.  Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion  on  management's  assertion  about the
entity's compliance 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  Long  Beach  Mortgage  Company'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 Long Beach Mortgage  Company's  compliance
with the minimum servicing standards.

     In our opinion,  management's  assertion that Long Beach  Mortgage  Company
complied with the aforementioned  minimum servicing  standards as of and for the
year ended December 31, 1999, is fairly stated, in all material respects.
