      Re: Form 8-K filing dated 11/15/96 (copy received by our office on same 
          date)

Dear Mr. Jacobs:

As comments to the above-referenced form 8K filing, we confirm that there were
no disagreements between the registrant and our firm regarding matters relating
to accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or
auditing scope or procedure.

There are however, a few differences on the form 8K filing which we would like
to disclose. Our firm was dismissed by the registrant in August of 1995.
Accordingly, we issued our final audit opinion on the registrant for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 1994. That audit opinion did contain a modification for
the emphasis of a matter, disclosing the Company's default on its Reg.
D Notes (see attached copy of opinion).

If you have any questions regarding this letter, please do not hesitate to
contact our office.

Very truly yours,



Vincent P. Argy, CPA

                         INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

Board of Directors
IMMO-FINANCE CORPORATION

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of IMMO-Finance
Corporation (a Delaware corporation), and subsidiaries, as of December 31, 1994
and 1993, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in
stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company'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 audit 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, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated position of IMMO-Finance Corporation and
subsidiaries, as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the consolidated results of
its operations, changes in stockholders' equity, and its cash flows for the
years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

As further discussed in Notes 10, 17 and 19, and subsequent to the balance sheet
date of December 31, 1994, the Company is currently in default on a principal
balance of $1,775,000, for 35.5 units of Regulation D, six-month, 12% notes
which became due on April 4, 1995. Management has determined a course to rectify
the issue; however, if any noteholder brings an action against the Company
seeking enforcement of the terms of the notes, it could have a materially
adverse affect on the Company.
