Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
At a meeting of the Board of Directors of Owens Financial Group, Inc., the General Partner of Owens Mortgage Investment Fund, a California Limited Partnership (the “Registrant”), held on September 8, 2009, the Board of Directors dismissed the accounting firm of Moss Adams LLP as the Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm and principal certifying accountant.

Moss Adams LLP’s reports on the Registrant’s financial statements for the two years ended December 31, 2008 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and for the interim period ended September 8, 2009, there were no disagreements with Moss Adams LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Moss Adams LLP, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with their reports on the financial statements for such years.  During the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and through September 8, 2009, there were no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a) (1) (v) of Regulation S-K.  The Registrant provided Moss Adams LLP with a copy of the foregoing disclosure and requested that Moss Adams LLP furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the foregoing disclosure.  A copy of Moss Adams LLP’s letter, dated September 14, 2009, stating that it agrees with the foregoing disclosure, is filed herewith as Exhibit 16.

At a meeting of the Board of Directors of Owens Financial Group, Inc., the General Partner of the Registrant, held on September 8, 2009, the Board of Directors engaged the accounting firm of Perry-Smith LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm to perform future independent audits of the Registrant.  Perry-Smith LLP thereby replaced Moss Adams LLP as the Registrant’s principal certifying accountant. During the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and through September 8, 2009, the Registrant did not consult with Perry-Smith LLP regarding any of the matters or events set forth in Item 304(a) (2) (i) or (ii) of Regulation S-K.
