Item 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER

The class of equity securities to which this statement relates is the common
stock (the "Securities") of Hanover Capital Mortgage Holdings, Inc. (the
"Issuer"). The aggregate amount beneficially owned by each Reporting Person has
changed since the original Schedule 13D was filed on April 7, 2000 because
warrants which were convertible by the Reporting Persons into common stock
within sixty days expired on September 15, 2000. This is the only ownership
change reported on this amended Schedule 13D. The Issuer's principal executive
offices are located at 90 West Street, Suite 2210, New York, New York 10006.


Item 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND

Wallace R. Weitz & Company ("Weitz & Co."), a Nebraska corporation, is an
investment adviser registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under
the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. Weitz & Co. provides investment
advice to certain investment limited partnerships, individual advisory accounts
and registered investment companies. Weitz Series Fund, Inc., is a registered
investment company organized as a Minnesota corporation and having four
individual series, including the Value Fund ("Value Fund"). Weitz Partners, Inc.
is a registered investment company organized as a Nebraska corporation and
having one series, the Partners Value Fund ("Partners Value Fund"). Weitz
Partners III Limited Partnership ("Partners III") is a Nebraska limited
partnership whose sole General Partner is Wallace R. Weitz. The principal office
of Weitz & Co., Value Fund, Partners Value Fund and Partners III is One Pacific
Place, 1125 South 103rd Street, Suite 600, Omaha, Nebraska 68124.

The Securities to which this statement relates were acquired on behalf of
investment advisory clients of Weitz & Co., including Value Fund, Partners Value
Fund and Partners III under sole discretionary authority granted to Weitz & Co
by such advisory clients. None of the Securities are owned by or on behalf of
Weitz & Co. or by any officer or director of Weitz & Co. or by any of the
officers or directors of Value Fund, Partners Value Fund or the General Partner
of Partners III. Weitz & Co. may, however, from time to time own shares of the
Value Fund or the Partners Value Fund.

This statement is also being filed by Wallace R. Weitz, President and sole owner
of Weitz & Co., in the event he could be deemed to be an indirect beneficial
owner of the Securities reported by Weitz & Co. through the exercise of voting
control and/or dispositive power over the Securities as a result of his official
positions or ownership of the voting securities of Weitz & Co. Neither Weitz &
Co. nor Mr. Weitz owns any Securities for its or his own account and each
disclaims beneficial interest in any of the Securities reported in the
statement.

Weitz & Co., Value Fund, Partners Value Fund, Partners III and Mr. Weitz are
referred to collectively in this statement as the "Reporting Persons".

During the past five years none of the Reporting Persons has been convicted in a
criminal proceeding or been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body involving any alleged violations of any securities laws.
<PAGE>

Schedule I which is attached to this statement and incorporated herein sets
forth the names, business addresses and principal occupations of each director
and officer of Weitz & Co., each director and officer of Weitz Series Fund, Inc.
and Weitz Partners, Inc. and the General Partner of Weitz Partners III.


Item 3: SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

The Reporting Persons used approximately $9,263,231 in the aggregate to purchase
the Securities reported on this statement. Such consideration came from the
assets of the advisory clients and not the assets of Weitz & Co. None of the
funds used to purchase the Common Stock were borrowed funds.


Item 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

The Securities reported in this statement were acquired in the ordinary course
of business by Weitz & Co. on behalf of its investment advisory clients for
investment purposes with the goal of capital appreciation. The Securities are
reported by Weitz & Co. and Mr. Weitz, President of Weitz & Co. in the event
that either should be deemed to be a member of a group under Section 13(d)(3) or
the beneficial owner of the Securities under the provisions of subparagraph (b)
of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Beneficial ownership by
Weitz & Co. and Mr. Weitz as members of a group or as beneficial owners is
expressly disclaimed, as permitted by Rule 13d-4. Weitz & Co. may from time to
time acquire additional Securities on behalf of advisory clients or dispose of
all or a portion of the current holdings of Securities.

Weitz & Co. is engaged in the business of investment management and pursues an
investment philosophy of identifying undervalued situations and acquiring
positions in undervalued companies on behalf of its advisory clients. In
pursuing this investment philosophy, Weitz & Co. analyzes the operations,
capital structure and markets of companies in which its clients invest and
continuously monitors the business operations of such companies through analysis
of financial statements and other public documents, through discussion with
knowledgeable industry observers, and with management of such companies, often
at management's invitation.

Weitz & Co., as an investment adviser registered under Section 203 of the
Investment Advisers Act of 1940 may elect to file securities ownership reports
required by the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 on Schedule 13G. Weitz & Co.
routinely uses Schedule 13G to report its beneficial ownership of securities
purchased for its advisory clients. As a result of investment analysis and the
occurrence of events, Weitz & Co. may desire to participate in discussions with
management of a particular company or with third parties about significant
matters in which Weitz & Co. may suggest possible courses of action to assist in
building corporate intrinsic value per share or to cause a company's true
economic value to be recognized. In such situations Weitz & Co. may elect to
convert a filing on Schedule 13G to a filing on Schedule 13D in order to be more
freely involved with management and to enter into discussions with third parties
concerning possible strategic alternatives.
<PAGE>

To obtain the necessary flexibility to have such discussions with management,
other shareholders and third parties, Weitz & Co. is converting its ownership
filing on Schedule 13G to a filing on Schedule 13D. Depending on such
discussions and consideration of strategic alternatives, Weitz & Co. could
support one or more of the actions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of
Item 4 of Schedule 13D.


Item 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

(a)  The following Reporting Persons own in excess of 5% of the Securities: (i)
     the aggregate number of Securities owned beneficially by Weitz & Co. is
     841,700 shares of common stock representing 17.2% of such Securities; (ii)
     the aggregate number of shares of common stock owned of record by the Value
     Fund is 301,300 representing 6.1% of such Securities; and (iii) The
     aggregate number of shares of common stock owned of record by Partners III
     is 278,400 representing 5.7% of such Securities.
(b)  Weitz & Co. has the sole power to vote or direct the vote of the Securities
     and the sole power to dispose of or direct the disposition of the
     Securities.
(c)  N/A
(d)  Weitz & Co.'s advisory clients have the sole right to receive and, subject
     to notice, to withdraw the proceeds from the sale of the Securities, and
     the sole power to direct the receipt of dividends from the Securities held
     for their accounts. Investment advisory clients may also terminate the
     investment advisory agreements without penalty upon appropriate notice.
     Weitz & Co. does not have an economic interest in any of the Securities
     reported in this statement.
(e)  Not applicable.


Item 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIP WITH RESPECT TO
SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

As discussed above, Weitz & Co. has written investment advisory contracts with
each of its clients who own the Securities of the Issuer. Such contracts provide
Weitz & Co. investment authority over all securities purchased for the
individual accounts. There are no special arrangements with respect to the
Securities of the Issuer. Weitz & Co. has voting authority with respect to the
securities owned of record by its advisory clients.
