INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
- ----------------------------

The GMAC Mortgage Corporation Savings Incentive Plan:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of the GMAC Mortgage Corporation Savings Incentive Plan (the "Plan") at December
31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of changes in net assets available
for  benefits  for the years then  ended.  These  financial  statements  are the
responsibility  of the Plan'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. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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,  such  financial  statements  present  fairly,  in all material
respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at December 31, 1996
and 1995,  and the changes in net assets  available  for  benefits for the years
then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits  were  conducted  for the  purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial  statements taken as a whole. The supplemental  information by Fund is
presented  for  the  purpose  of  additional  analysis  of the  basic  financial
statements rather than to present information regarding the net assets available
for  benefits of the  individual  Funds and is not a required  part of the basic
financial statements. The accompanying supplemental schedules of (1) assets held
for investment purposes at December 31, 1996 and (2) reportable transactions for
the year ended December 31, 1996 are presented for the purpose of complying with
the  Department of Labor's Rules and  Regulations  for Reporting and  Disclosure
under the Employee  Retirement  Income  Security Act of 1974.  The  supplemental
information by Fund and the supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the
Plan's  management.  Such  supplemental  information  by Fund  and  supplemental
schedules have been subjected to the auditing  procedures  applied in the audits
of the basic financial  statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all
material  respects  when  considered  in  relation  to the basic 1996  financial
statements taken as a whole.

THE GMAC MORTGAGE CORPORATION SAVINGS INCENTIVE PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.  INFORMATION CONCERNING THE PLAN

      The GMAC  Mortgage  Corporation  Savings  Incentive  Plan (the "Plan") was
      adopted by action of the Board of Directors of GMAC  Mortgage  Corporation
      (the  "Company") on April 30, 1986.  The Plan complies with the Tax Reform
      Act of 1986.  The Plan  was  amended  and  completely  restated  effective
      January 1, 1994, primarily to clarify existing plan features and to effect
      administrative  changes.  The Plan is  subject  to the  provisions  of the
      Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

      The  Plan  is  a  defined  contribution  plan  with  a  cash  or  deferred
      arrangement for Employees of the Company,  its participating  subsidiaries
      and any related  entities  electing to adopt the Plan.  The  Employees may
      elect to  participate  and must  meet  certain  eligibility  requirements.
      Subsidiaries or related entities participating in the Plan include:

         GMAC Mortgage Corporation of PA
            (successor by merger of GMAC Mortgage Corporation of Iowa)
         Residential Funding Corporation
         GMAC Commercial Mortgage Corporation

      On  February  1,  1995,  GMAC  Commercial  Mortgage  Corporation  acquired
      Republic Realty Mortgage  Corporation  ("RRMC").  Effective March 3, 1995,
      RRMC's assets of approximately $2.6 million were added to the Plan. Former
      RRMC employees maintain their scheduled vesting accrual.

      On February 6, 1995, GMAC Mortgage  Corporation acquired Residential Money
      Centers  ("RMC").   RMC  did  not  previously  have  a  qualified  defined
      contribution  plan. Former RMC employees are vested in accordance with the
      Plan's vesting schedule and their original dates of hire.

      Effective  October 1, 1995,  Residential  Funding  Corporation  acquired a
      division  of  Mortgage  Services  of America  ("MSA").  As a result of the
      acquisition,  $411,770 was rolled over into the Plan.  Former employees of
      MSA are vested in accordance  with the Plan's  vesting  schedule and their
      original dates of hire.

      On October 1, 1996,  GMAC  Commercial  Mortgage  Corporation  acquired the
      Hanford Healy Companies  ("Hanford  Healy").  Former  employees of Hanford
      Healy were given the  opportunity  to roll over funds into the Plan.  They
      are  vested in  accordance  with the  Plan's  vesting  schedule  and their
      original dates of hire.

      The Plan is sponsored  and  administered  by the Company.  At December 31,
      1996 and 1995, all assets were held in trust at Fidelity  Management Trust
      Company, Inc.

      A general  description of the Plan provisions is incorporated in the notes
      which  follow.  A Summary  Plan  Description,  providing a more  extensive
      description  of Plan  provisions,  has been  published and is available to
      participants in the Plan.

THE GMAC MORTGAGE CORPORATION SAVINGS INCENTIVE PLAN

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      The  significant  accounting  policies  followed in the preparation of the
      accompanying financial statements are as follows:

      .  Investment  transactions  are recorded on the trade date and investment
         balances  are stated at fair  value or  contract  value  which has been
         determined as follows:

         .. Assets  invested in common stocks,  mutual funds and pooled separate
            accounts are carried at quoted market price.

         .. Assets invested in unallocated insurance contracts are carried at 
            principal contributed plus interest credited.

      .  Realized and unrealized gains and losses are computed based on the fair
         value of investments at the beginning of the Plan year.

      .  Dividends  and interest are included in income when earned based on the
         term of the  investments  and the periods during which the  investments
         are owned by the Plan.

      .  Balances in the loan fund are carried at the principal balance
         outstanding.

3.    CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE PLAN

      Annual  additions  to  an  Employee's   account  are  subject  to  certain
      limitations imposed by the Plan.  Employees may elect to contribute to the
      Plan on a pre-tax basis, in even multiples of 1% of base compensation,  up
      to 9% of  compensation  (subject  to a limit of $9,500  and $9,240 for the
      years  ended  December  31,  1996 and 1995,  respectively).  The  Employee
      contribution  limitation is adjusted annually for cost of living increases
      to the extent  permitted by the Internal  Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
      (the "Code"). The Company will match an Employee's contribution in cash up
      to 6%  of  compensation  to an  annual  limit  of  $3,000.  Based  on  the
      Employee's election,  such contributions can be directed to any of several
      investment  funds or options (see Note 7).  Employees  may elect to change
      contribution  elections  daily.  On May 8,  1997,  the  Pension  Committee
      approved  increasing  the  contribution  level from the current 9% to 12%,
      effective July 1, 1997.


4.    VESTING

      Two pre-tax basis accounts are maintained for each participating Employee.
      The Salary Reduction Account consists of a participant's contributions and
      is  fully  vested.   The  Matching   Account  consists  of  the  Company's
      contributions.  A  participant's  Matching  Account accrued balance is 20%
      after one year of credited  service and increases 20% per year  thereafter
      until fully vested.

      While the Company has not  expressed  any intent to terminate the Plan, it
      may do so at any time.  In the  event of  termination  of the  Plan,  each
      participant's  Matching  Account becomes fully vested to the extent of the
      amount in the participant's Matching Account.

THE GMAC MORTGAGE CORPORATION SAVINGS INCENTIVE PLAN

5.    DISTRIBUTIONS

      Participants   may  withdraw   their  vested  assets  at  any  time  after
      termination of employment.  Prior to termination of employment, the assets
      may  only be  withdrawn  because  of  disability  or  financial  hardship.
      Participants  may elect to receive  their  withdrawal in either a lump-sum
      payment, by purchase of various annuities or over various periods of time.
      Participants  may also  elect a  distribution  of  shares  of stock to the
      extent shares have been credited to their account.  Participants also have
      the option of borrowing  against their vested  balances in an amount up to
      50% of the  participant's  accrued  vested  benefit as  determined  on the
      valuation date, or $50,000, whichever is less (see Note 8).

6.    FORFEITURES

      Participant   forfeitures  are  utilized  to  reduce  subsequent   Company
      contributions.   Upon   termination,   the   nonvested   portion   of  the
      participant's Matching Account is forfeited.

7.    INVESTMENT FUNDS OR OPTIONS

      Participants  can direct the Plan Trustee to make  investments of Employee
      contributions in the Investment Options described below:

      FIDELITY  MANAGED  INCOME  FUND - The fund seeks to  preserve  capital and
      provide  a   competitive   level  of  income  over  time.   It   purchases
      high-quality,   short-  and  long-term   investment  contracts  issued  by
      insurance  companies,  banks and other  approved  financial  institutions.
      Investment contracts are unsecured agreements when the purchaser agrees to
      pay the issuer and the issuer  agrees to pay interest at a specified  rate
      for the life of the contract and to repay the money at maturity.  The fund
      may also  purchase  synthetics  which  simulate the terms of  conventional
      investment contracts and money market instruments on liquidity.

      FIDELITY GROWTH & INCOME FUND - The fund seeks  long-term  capital growth,
      current income, and growth of income consistent with reasonable investment
      risk.  It invests in common  stocks,  securities  convertible  into common
      stocks, preferred stocks and fixed income securities.

      FIDELITY OVERSEAS FUND - The fund seeks long term capital growth primarily
      through investments in foreign securities.  Investments may include common
      stock, securities convertible to common stock and debt instruments. Due to
      currency  fluctuations  and  the  political  and  economic   uncertainties
      associated  with  foreign  investments,  the risks and  potential  rewards
      relating  to  this  fund  are  greater  than  funds  which  purchase  U.S.
      investments.

      FIDELITY  ASSET  MANAGER  FUND - The fund seeks a high total  return  with
      reduced risk over the long term by  allocating  its assets among  domestic
      and foreign equities, bonds and short-term instruments.

      FIDELITY MAGELLAN FUND - The fund seeks long-term capital  appreciation by
      investing in stocks of both  well-known  and  lesser-known  companies with
      potentially  above-average  growth potential and a correspondingly  higher
      level of risk.
      Securities may be of foreign, domestic and multinational companies.

      FIDELITY RETIREMENT  GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET FUND - The fund seeks as high
      a level of  current  income  as is  consistent  with the  preservation  of
      principal and liquidity. It invests in obligations issued or guaranteed as
      to  principal  and  interest  by the  U.S.  Government,  its  agencies  or
      instrumentalities,   and  in   repurchase   agreements   secured   by  the
      obligations.

THE GMAC MORTGAGE CORPORATION SAVINGS INCENTIVE PLAN

      FIDELITY  CONTRAFUND - The fund seeks  long-term  capital  appreciation by
      investing  mainly in the  securities  of  companies  believed to be out of
      favor or  undervalued.  The fund invests in common  stocks and  securities
      convertible  into common stock,  but it may purchase other securities that
      may produce capital appreciation.

      FIDELITY  GINNIE MAE FUND - The fund seeks a high level of current  income
      by investing primarily in Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie
      Mae) securities and other securities that are guaranteed by the full faith
      and credit of the U.S. Government and private issuers. Assets not invested
      in Ginnie  Maes may be  invested  in any type of U.S.  or foreign  debt or
      other income producing investments.

      THE CORESTATES  FINANCIAL CORP. COMMON STOCK option is the residual of the
      former Colonial Companies Savings Incentive Plan (which became the Plan in
      1986). Activity is limited to the reinvestment of earnings and participant
      distributions.

      GM  UNITIZED  STOCK FUND - The  objective  is to  provide a Company  Stock
      investment  option that can be traded and accessed with the same frequency
      and timeliness as a Fidelity mutual fund. This fund is primarily comprised
      of GM Common  Stock and a small  percentage  of cash and/or  other  liquid
      investments (usually 1-3%). The availability of the cash makes it possible
      to trade shares of GM Common Stock without  waiting the mandatory five day
      settlement period.

      Beginning  January 1, 1997,  participants can also direct the Plan Trustee
      to make investments of employee  contributions  in the Investment  Options
      described below:

      FIDELITY  SMALL CAP STOCK FUND - The fund seeks  capital  appreciation  by
      investing  mainly in equity  securities  of  companies  with small  market
      capitalizations  believed  to be  undervalued  compared to others in their
      industry.  The fund may also invest in all types of equity  securities and
      may invest a portion of its assets in the stock of  companies  with larger
      capitalizations.

      FIDELITY OTC PORTFOLIO - The fund seeks capital  appreciation by investing
      mainly in equity securities traded on the over-the-counter market.

      FIDELITY  PURITAN FUND - The fund seeks high income with  preservation  of
      capital and the potential  for growth of capital.  It invests in a broadly
      diversified portfolio of high-yielding equity and debt securities.

      Beginning July 1, 1997,  participants  can also direct the Plan Trustee to
      make  investments  of  Employee  contributions  in the  Investment  Option
      described below:

      FIDELITY FREEDOM FUNDS - These funds provide investment diversity based on
      the  projected  years to  retirement.  A  participant  can choose the fund
      tailored to their retirement specification. These funds eliminate the need
      for the investor to determine the asset allocation.

      During 1996 and 1995, contributions to each participant's Matching Account
      are invested in the GM Unitized Stock Fund.

      For 1996 and 1995,  participants may change  allocations among funds in 1%
      increments daily. In addition,  participants may elect to transfer,  in 1%
      increments,  balances  from one or more  investment  funds or  options  to
      another on a daily basis.

THE GMAC MORTGAGE CORPORATION SAVINGS INCENTIVE PLAN

      The  number  of  participants  in each  Investment  Fund or  Option  as of
      December 31, 1996 and 1995 is shown  below.  The sum of  participation  by
      Investment  Fund or  Option  is  greater  than the  total  number  of Plan
      participants  because  participation  is  allowed in more than one fund or
      option.

THE GMAC MORTGAGE CORPORATION SAVINGS INCENTIVE PLAN

8.    LOANS RECEIVABLE FROM PARTICIPANTS

      Active  participants in the Plan are generally eligible to borrow from the
      Plan  up to the  lesser  of  $50,000  or 50% of the  participant's  vested
      account balance.  Interest on participant  loans is determined by the Plan
      Administrator  based on rates  offered by  commercial  lenders for similar
      type loans. Loan repayments are in level monthly  installments over a term
      not to exceed five years.  Loans are funded through the liquidation of the
      participant's related investments.  Repayments of principal are reinvested
      based upon the participant's  current investment options.  During the year
      ended  December  31,  1996,  there  were   approximately   $2,170,000  and
      $1,289,000 of new borrowings and principal  repayments,  respectively.  At
      December  31,  1996,  there  were 611 loans  outstanding  with an  average
      balance and interest rate of $4,971 and 9.54%,  respectively.  At December
      31, 1995,  there were 548 loans  outstanding  with an average  balance and
      interest rate of $4,251 and 8.93%, respectively.

      Four employees of the Company who serve indirectly as Plan  Administrators
      also serve as Trustees for the notes securing the Plan's loans  receivable
      (for loans  originated prior to 1994). One of the employees of the Company
      who  serves  on  the  Pension  Committee  also  has  an  outstanding  loan
      receivable.  Loan  activity  for these  individuals  for the  years  ended
      December 31, 1996 and 1995 is as follows:

</TABLE>

9.    PLAN STATUS

      The Plan  obtained  its latest  determination  letter on July 13,  1995 in
      which the Internal  Revenue  Service stated that the Plan,  subject to the
      adoption  of several  technical  amendments,  was in  compliance  with the
      applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The Plan adopted the
      technical  amendments  on August 9, 1995 to comply  with the  requirements
      noted in the most recent determination letter. Therefore, no provision for
      income taxes has been included in the Plan's financial statements.

      Temporary  employees  do not  normally  qualify  for  benefits  due to the
      expected tenure of their employment.  However,  from 1993 to 1996, certain
      temporary  employees qualified for Plan benefits as a result of working in
      excess of 1,000 hours for the eligibility  computation  period.  Due to an
      administrative  error,  these  employees were not given the opportunity to
      participate  in the Plan.  As a result,  the  Company has filed for relief
      with  the  Internal  Revenue  Service  under  the  Standardized  Voluntary
      Compliance  Resolution  Procedure  ("SVP")  and  will  make  contributions
      required to obtain relief under SVP. The Company has developed an estimate
