NOTE 3 - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

As of September 30, 2000, Due from Managing Member approximating $47,000 relate
to loan origination fees due from Vestin.

Vestin may originate loans and earn loan brokerage fees paid by the borrowers
for loans selected for investment into the Company. The Managing Member may, in
its full discretion, share with the Company the origination fees it receives
from the borrowers. The Managing Member is under no obligation to share its
origination fees and investor should not assumed that any origination fees will
be shared with the Company. As of September 30, 2000, the Company received
approximately $47,000 in fees which approximately $4,000 was recorded as income
and the remaining balance of $43,000 has been recorded as deferred fees and
amortized over 11 months based on the effective interest method.

Vestin, as the Managing Member, is entitled to an annual management fee of up to
0.25% of the aggregate capital contributions to the Company which will be paid
by the Company. Vestin has elected to waive such fee for the month ended
September 30, 2000. If such fee and expense would have been recorded as of
September 30, 2000, it would have decreased net income by approximately $8,000
to $118,000 from a reported net income of approximately $126,000. Accordingly,
the pro forma effect of net income allocated to members per weighted average
membership units would have been a decrease of $0.006 to $0.077 from $0.083.

converted this deferred offering costs amount as membership units in the Company
since the minimum number of units to be sold was met. Any additional offering
costs incurred by the Company will be converted to membership units in the
Company up to an aggregate of $1,000,000 and any additional cost will be
absorbed by the Managing Member.

NOTE 5 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 5, 2000, the Company made cash distributions to its members totaling
$168,568.

Subsequent to September 30, 2000 through October 25, 2000, the Company sold
approximately 440,000 additional units to the public with total proceeds of
approximately $4,400,000. The proceeds will be invested in loans secured by real
estate.

The Company will be concurrently filing a post-effective amendment to its Form
S-11 with its September 30, 2000 Form 10-Q, to include the elimination of
certain fees chargeable to the Company by Vestin and its affiliates.

</TABLE>

As of September 30, 2000, investment in loans secured by real estate are
invested in loans with a weighted average interest yield of 14.20% maturing
within twelve (12) months. The Company believes that on an annual basis, overall
net yield to the members on a weighted average per unit basis will range from
13% to 13.5%, net of all operating expenses, through the year ended December 31,
2000. The Company believes that it will achieve these rates through the high
yield returns it anticipates receiving from current and future investment in
loans secured by real estate. This is a forward looking statement and there can
be no assurance that the Company will achieve such anticipated results and
actual results may be different due to interest rate fluctuations, loan
defaults, changes in general economic condition, etcetera.

INVESTMENT IN LOANS SECURED BY REAL ESTATE QUALITY

Some losses are considered normal when funding mortgage type loans and the
amount of losses will vary as the loan portfolio is affected by changing
economic conditions and financial experiences of these borrowers. There is no
precise method of predicting specific losses or amounts that ultimately may be
charged off to particular segments of the investment in loans portfolio.

The conclusion that a Company loan may become uncollectible, in whole or in
part, is a matter of professional judgment. Although lenders such as traditional
banks, and savings and loan institutions are subject to federal and state
regulations that require them to perform ongoing analyses of their loan
portfolios, loan to value ratios, reserves, etc., and to obtain current
information regarding its borrowers and the securing properties, the Company is
not subject to such regulations and has not adopted these practices. Rather, the
management of the Company, in connection with the quarterly closing of the
accounting records of the Company and the preparation of the financial
statements, evaluates the Company's investment in loans portfolio. Based upon
this evaluation method, a determination is made as to whether the allowance for
loan losses is adequate to cover potential losses of the Company. As of
September 30, 2000 management believes that no allowances for loan losses is
necessary. Based upon the loan to value criteria established by the management
of the Company and that all loans are current and performing, it is in the
opinion of the Company's management that the investment in loans secured by real
estate appear in general to be adequately secured as of September 30, 2000.

Managements professional judgment of the adequacy of allowance for loan losses
may include considerations of economic conditions, borrower's financial
condition, evaluation of industry trends, review and evaluation of loans
identified as having loss potential, and quarterly review by Managing Member's
loan committee.

CAPITAL AND LIQUIDITY

Liquidity is a measure of a company's ability to meet potential cash
requirements, including ongoing commitments to fund lending activities and for
general operation purposes. The Company believes that interest earned from both
investment loans and cash held at bank institutions in the next twelve months
will be sufficient to meet its capital requirements. The Company does not
anticipate the hiring of any employees, acquiring fixed assets such as office
equipment or furniture, or incurring material office expenses during the next
twelve months because the Company will be utilizing Vestin's personnel and
office equipment. The Company may pay Vestin an annual management fee up to
0.25% of its aggregate capital contributions. The Company will not reimburse
Vestin for any overhead expenses in excess of this management fee.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000, cash flows provided
by operating activities approximated $31 thousand. Investing activities
consisted of investment in loans secured by real estate in the amount of $13.8
million. Financing activities consisted of proceeds from the sale of units in
the amount of $20 million.

The Company will rely upon the cash flow from operations to provide for its
capital requirements. Management believes that cash generated from operations
will be sufficient to provide for its capital requirements for at least the next
12 months. The Company will continue to offer to sell its remaining unsold units
up to a maximum of 10,000,000 units. As of September 30, 2000, the Company has
sold approximately 2 million units with proceeds approximating $19.6 million.
Proceeds from future sale of the Company's units will be used to provide capital
for investments in loans. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to sell its remaining unsold units.

At September 30, 2000, the Company had $5.8 million in cash and cash equivalents
and $19.8 million in total assets. On the same date, total liabilities were
nominal. Accordingly, the Company appears to have sufficient working capital to
meet its operating needs in the near term.

The Company maintains working capital reserves of at least 3% of aggregate
members' capital accounts in cash and cash equivalents, and certificates of
deposits. This reserve is available to pay expenses in excess of revenues,
satisfy obligations of underlying security properties, expend money to satisfy
our unforeseen obligations and for other permitted uses of the working capital.
Working capital reserves of up to 3% are included in the funds committed to loan
investments in determining what proportion of the offering proceeds and
reinvested distributions have been invested in mortgage loans.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The current economic climate in the Southwestern United States, specifically
Arizona, Nevada and Utah, is strong. Despite the Company's ability to invest in
loans secured by real estate with relatively strong interest rate yields which
has resulted in strong yields paid to the members of the Company, increased
competition or changes in the economy could have the effect of reducing loan
yields in the future. Current investment in loans with relatively high interest
rate yields could be paid off before maturity by the borrowers with loans
yielding lower interest rates, which in turn could reduce the net yield paid to
the members' of the Company. In addition, if there is less demand by borrowers
for loans and, henceforth, fewer loans for the Company to invest in, it will
have excess cash in alternative short-term investments yielding considerably
less than the current investments in loans portfolio.

Vestin has the ability to purchase delinquent loans from the Company but is not
required to do so; therefore, the Company could sustain losses with respects to
loans secured by real estate located in areas of declining real estate values.
This could result in a reduction of net income of the Company for the period in
which those losses occur. There is no way of making a reliable estimate of these
potential losses at the present time.
