                        Independent Accountants' Report


American Business Credit, Inc.
Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania

We have examined management's assertion American Business Credit, Inc.'s
compliance with the minimum servicing standards identified in the Mortgage
Bankers Association of America's Uniform Single Attestation Program for
Mortgage Bankers (the USAP) as of and for the year ended December 31, 1996.
Management is responsible for American Business Credit, Inc.'s compliance with
those minimum serving 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 American Business Credit, Inc.'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 American Business Credit, Inc.'s
compliance with the minimum servicing standards.

In our opinion, management's assertion that American Business Credit, Inc.
complied with the aforementioned minimum servicing standards as of and for the
period ended December 31, 1996, is fairly stated, in all material respects.
