     ITEM 4.   CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

     On May 16, 1996, the Registrant  dismissed  Farber,  Blicht & Eyerman,  LLP
("Farber") as its independent accountants subject to the completion by Farber of
its audit for the nine month period ended  December 31, 1995.  The  Registrant's
Board of Directors approved such dismissal.  Farber's accountant's report on the
financial statements of the Registrant for the past two years did not contain an
adverse  opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as
to  uncertainty,  audit scope,  or  accounting  principles.  There were no other
reportable  events or  disagreements  with  Farber to report in response to Item
304(a) of Regulation S-K, ss. 229.304(a).

     On May 16,  1996,  Grant  Thornton  LLP was engaged as new  independent
accountants  to the  Registrant  with respect to the fiscal year ended March 31,
1996.

and  under  dates  of June  20,  1994 and June  20,  1995,  we  reported  on the
consolidated  financial  statements of United Vanguard Homes, Inc. as of and for
the years ended March 31, 1994 and 1995.  On May 16, 1996,  our  appointment  as
principal accountants was terminated,  subject to our completion of the audit of
the Company's financial  statements as of and for the nine months ended December

Item 4 of its Form 8-K dated May 16, 1996 and we agree with such statements.

                                   Very truly yours,

                                   FARBER, BLICHT & EYERMAN, LLP
