PART I

Item 1.        Business

        Information not provided pursuant to No Action Request.

Item 2.        Properties

        Pursuant to the No Action  Request,  Residential  Funding  Corporation's
        (the "Master  Servicer") Annual Statement as to Compliance,  dated as of
        March 30, 2004 is filed as Exhibit 99.1 under Item 16 (a) hereof.

Item 3.        Legal Proceedings

        Residential  Asset Securities  Corporation and the Indenture Trustee for
        Home Loan Trust  2002-KS6 have been named as defendants in the following
        purported class action lawsuit:

               Henry and Georgia Adams et al v. Gateway Financial Corporation et
               al, in the United States District Court for the Northern District
               of Illinois.

               The case was  initially  filed on September  17,  2003.  The case
               alleges that unreasonable  title fees and charges assessed by the
               title company and broker caused the borrowers'  annual percentage
               rate to be overstated and their finance charge to be understated,
               thereby  allegedly  violating  the Truth in Lending Act. It seeks
               statutory penalties and rescission of all putative class members'
               loans.  No liability is directed  toward either the Registrant or
               the  Indenture  Trustee,  but they  have been  presumably  put on
               notice of the alleged right of rescission  through naming them as
               parties.  The case has been stayed,  pending  discussions  by the
               plaintiffs and the  originating  lender who are seeking to settle
               the case on an individual,  rather than a class,  basis.  RFC has
               indemnified  the  Indenture  Trustee  for all costs and  expenses
               associated with the litigation. If any of the loans at issue were
               determined  by a  court  not to  have  been  originated  in  full
               compliance   with  applicable  law,  RFC  would  be  required  to
               repurchase such loans from the trust.

        Residential Asset Securities Corporation,  the Indenture Trustee and the
        Owner Trustee of Series 1998-KS1,  and the trust itself, have been named
        as defendants in the following purported class action lawsuit.

               Danita S. Couch et al v. SMC Lending,  Inc., in the Circuit Court
               for Clay County, Missouri.

               The seventh  amendment  to this case,  filed on February 2, 2004,
               added  the  above-referenced  defendants.  The  initial  case was
               filed, however, on January 3, 2002. The case alleges that certain
               loans  originated  by SMC Lending,  Inc.  were not  originated in
               accordance with applicable  state law and that the Registrant and
               trust-related  defendants  may be liable as  assignees  under the
               federal Home Ownership and Equity  Protection Act. The plaintiffs
               are primarily  seeking monetary  damages.  The Registrant and the
               trust-related  defendants are  vigorously  defending the case and
               will file a Motion to Dismiss the seventh amended complaint.  RFC
               has  indemnified  the  trustees  and the  trust for all costs and
               expenses  associated with the litigation.  If any of the loans at
               issue were  determined by a court not to have been  originated in
               full  compliance  with  applicable  law, RFC would be required to
               repurchase such loans from the trust.

        Residential  Asset Securities  Corporation and the Indenture  Trustee of
        Home  Equity  Mortgage  Asset-Backed   Pass-Through  Certificate  Series
        1999-KS2,  as well as the trust itself, have been named as defendants in
        the following purported class action lawsuit:

               Lloyd and Barbara Lilly v. Homecomings  Financial  Network et al,
               in the Circuit Court of Raleigh County, West Virginia.

               The case was  initially  filed on  November  24,  2003.  The case
               alleges the servicer and the Indenture  Trustee  violated certain
               West Virginia  collection  and  foreclosure  laws and  wrongfully


                                        2
<PAGE>

               foreclosed  upon the  borrowers'  property.  It also  alleges the
               servicer  wrongfully  force-placed  insurance  on the  borrowers'
               property.  Plaintiffs'  are  seeking  a  preliminary  restraining
               order,  stopping  all West  Virginia  foreclosures  currently  in
               process,   an  undisclosed  amount  of  monetary  damages  and  a
               cancellation of the prior  foreclosure  sales. The Registrant and
               all trust-related defendants are vigorously defending the case. A
               motion for class certification has been filed, and the defendants
               will  file an  opposition.  RFC  has  indemnified  the  Indenture
               Trustee and the trust for all costs and expenses  associated with
               the litigation. If any of the loans at issue were determined by a
               court  of law  not to  have  been  serviced  in  compliance  with
               applicable  law,  RFC would pay any  damages,  judgment,  fees or
               costs associated with the litigation.

        The Indenture  Trustee for Series 2002-KS2 and the Indenture Trustee for
        Series 2002-KS6 have been named as defendants in the following purported
        class action lawsuit:

               Robert  Earle  and  Ella  Walker  et  al  v.  Gateway   Financial
               Corporation et al in the United States  District  Court,  Eastern
               District of Wisconsin.

               The suit was  initially  filed on September  23,  2003.  The case
               alleges that unreasonable  title fees and charges assessed by the
               title company and broker caused the borrowers'  annual-percentage
               rate to be overstated and the finance  charge to be  understated,
               thereby  allegedly  violating  the Truth in Lending  Act. It also
               claims that the borrowers signed an affirmation of non-rescission
               at  closing,  effectively  waiving  their  right  to  rescind  in
               contravention  of federal law. It seeks  statutory  penalties and
               rescission of all putative class members'  loans. No liability is
               directed toward either the Registrant or the Indenture  Trustees,
               but they have been  presumably put on notice of the alleged right
               of rescission  through naming them as parties.  The case has been
               stayed, pending discussions by the plaintiffs and the originating
               lender  who are  seeking  to  settle  the case on an  individual,
               rather than a class,  basis.  RFC has  indemnified  the Indenture
               Trustees  for  all  costs  and  expenses   associated   with  the
               litigation.  If any of the loans at issue  were  determined  by a
               court  not to  have  been  originated  in  full  compliance  with
               applicable  law, RFC would be required to  repurchase  such loans
               from the relevant trust.
