PART 1

Item 1: Business

General
THE MORTGAGE BANCFUND OF AMERICA II, L.P.,
is a California Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") of which the 
general partners are Robert Y. Strom and the Mortgage BancFund Corporation
(the Corporation), a California Corporation wholly owned by Mr. Strom. The
Partnership was organized to make first and second trust deed  commercial 
real estate loans in the southern California area..

State of the Economy

The southern California economy continues to be the most important factor
which affects the operations of the Partnership. Throughout 1994 and 1995

Employees

The Partnership does not directly employ personnel. The Corporate
general partner handles all the business affairs of the partnership with its
remaining full-time staff of one employee..


Item 2: Properties:

The Partnership does not own any real property other than foreclosed
properties acquired during the normal course of business which was disp
