Dear Mr. Roberts:

We have reviewed your registration statem ent and have the following comments.  In
some of our comments, we may ask you to provi de us with information so we may better
understand your disclosure.
 Please respond to this letter by amendi ng your registration statement and providing
the requested information.  If you do not beli eve our comments appl y to your facts and
circumstances or do not believe an amendment is appropriate, please tell us why in your
response.
 After reviewing any amendment to your re gistration statement and the information
you provide in response to these comments,  we may have additional comments.
 Historical Performance of Angelo, Gordon, page 106

 1. We note your response to comment 3.  Item  8 of Industry Guide 5 requests narrative
prior performance disclosure, including disclosure regarding material adverse
business developments, of any prior program th at invests primarily in real estate, and
more detailed tabular disclosure for a limite d range of prior programs, such as those
with “similar investment objectives.”  Because the company intends to focus on
RMBS, we believe that pr ior programs focusing on RMBS are those with “similar
investment objectives,” and acknowledge th at you have provided more detailed
performance disclosure for these programs.  However, we continue to believe that any
material adverse business developments should be disclosed for all prior MBS
programs covered by the narrative se ction, including CMBS programs.

We urge all persons who are responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of the
disclosure in the filing to be certain that th e filing includes the information the Securities Act
of 1933 and all applicable S ecurities Act rules require.  Since the company and its

responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of the disclosures they have made.

Notwithstanding our comments, in the event you request accelerati on of the effective
date of the pending registration statement pl ease provide a written statement from the
company acknowledging that:
 should the Commission or the staff, acting purs uant to delegated authority, declare the
filing effective, it does not foreclose th e Commission from taking any action with
respect to the filing;

 the action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in
declaring the filing effective,  does not relieve the company from its full responsibility
for the adequacy and accuracy of th e disclosure in the filing; and

 the company may not assert staff comments a nd the declaration of effectiveness as a
defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.

Please refer to Rules 460 and 461 regard ing requests for acceleration.  We will
consider a written request for acceleration of th e effective date of the registration statement
as confirmation of the fact that those request ing acceleration are aware of their respective
responsibilities under the Securi ties Act of 1933 and the Securiti es Exchange Act of 1934 as
