The attached tables and other statistical analyses (the "Computational
Materials") are privileged and confidential and are intended for use by the
addressee only. These Computational Materials are furnished to you solely by

The information herein may not be provided by the addressees to any third

Numerous assumptions were used in preparing the Computational Materials which
may or may not be stated therein. As such, no assurance can be given as to
the accuracy, appropriateness or completeness of the Computational Materials
in any particular context; or as to whether the Computational Materials
and/or the assumptions upon which they are based reflect present market
conditions or future market performance. These Computational Materials
should not be construed as either projections or predictions or as legal,
tax, financial or accounting advice.
Any yields or weighted average lives shown in the Computational Materials are
based on prepayment assumptions and actual prepayment experience may
dramatically affect such yields or weighted average lives. In addition, it
is possible that prepayments on the underlying assets will occur at rates
slower or faster than the rates assumed in the attached Computational
Materials. Furthermore, unless otherwise provided, the Computational
Materials assume no losses on the underlying assets and no interest
shortfall. The specific characteristics of the securities may differ from
those shown in the Computational Materials due to differences between the
actual underlying assets and the hypothetical assets used in preparing the
Computational Materials. The principal amount and designation of any
security described in the Computational Materials are subject to change prior
to issuance.

TRANSACTION SUMMARY:
Issuer: Sequoia Mortgage Trust 2
Servicer: Merrill Lynch Credit Corporation
Underwriter: Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated
Trustee: Norwest Bank Minnesota, N.A.
Surety Bond Provider: AMBAC
Expected Pricing Date: Week of October 20, 1997
Expected Closing Date: Week of October 27, 1997
Distribution Date: 25th of each month, beginning on November 25, 1997
Cut-off Date: October 1, 1997
Stated Delay: No delay days
Tax Status: Owner Trust
SMMEA: Class A Bonds will constitute "mortgage related
securities" for purposes of SMMEA.
ERISA: Class A Bonds will be eligible for purchase by ERISA
accounts subject to the satisfaction of the conditions
of the underwriter's exemption. A Benefit Plan should
consult with counsel before making a purchase.
STRUCTURE:
Credit Enhancement: Class A Bonds will be supported by a 100% insurance
guarantee provided by an AMBAC Bond Insurance Policy,
which is non-cancelable, in favor of the Trustee.
The AMBAC policy will guarantee timely payment of
interest and ultimate payment of principal. The AMBAC
policy will also guarantee the Class A-1 Interest Rate
and the Class A-2 Interest Rate.
In addition, excess servicing and
overcollateralization of 1.00% is available to cover
losses on the Class A Bonds.
Bond Interest Rate: CLASS A-1
The interest rate for the Class A-1 Bonds for any
Distribution Date (the "Class A-1 Interest Rate") will
be equal to a per annum floating rate equal to the
Rolling One-Year Constant Maturity Treasury Rate for
the related Interest Accrual Period. The Class A-1
Interest Rate for the first Payment Date will equal
6.50% per annum.
The "Rolling One-Year Constant Maturity Treasury Rate"
will be equal to the arithmetic average of twelve
reference rates (each, a "Reference Rate") determined
in the following manner. Each month one of the twelve
Reference Rates will be set and the rate so determined
by the Bond Trustee will remain fixed for the
following twelve months. Only one Reference Rate will
be set each month; the other eleven Reference Rates
will remain constant. For example, the Reference Rate
for January 1998 will be set on the One-Year Constant
Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date occurring in
January 1998 and will remain fixed for the period of
January 25, 1998 through January 24, 1999.
The Reference Rate determined each month will be set
to a level equal to the One-Year Constant Maturity
Treasury Index in effect for the week ending on Friday
of the first full week (i.e. the week which includes
the first Monday of the month) of the prior month
(i.e. a 45 day look back) plus a fixed margin to be
set at pricing, subject, however, to (i) a maximum
increase not to exceed the sum of the Reference Rate
for such month determined in the immediately preceding
year plus 2.0% and (ii) a maximum rate of 10%. The
method used to determine the Class A-1 Interest Rate
is similar to the way a coupon would be set for a pool
of CMT ARM loans.
The "One-Year Constant Maturity Treasury Index" will
be the average of the published yields for each
business day during the specified one full week of
the yield on United States Treasury securities
adjusted to a constant maturity of one year.
CLASS A-2
The interest rate for the Class A-2 Bonds for
any Distribution Date (the "Class A-2 Interest
Rate") will be equal to the lesser of (i) a per
annum floating rate equal to One Month LIBOR for the
related Interest Accrual Period, plus _.__%, and (ii)
10% per annum.
Principal Payments: On each Payment Date, to the
extent funds are available therefor, principal
payments will be made on a pro rata basis to Class
A-1 and Class A-2 according to the outstanding balance
of each class.
Priority of
Payments: The Available Funds will be distributed as
follows: (i) Bond Insurance Premium and fee payable
to Redwood Trust under Management Agreement and the
fee payable to the Owner Trustee and the Custodian
(ii) the Issuer Swap Payment, if any, (iii) Interest
Payment Amount to Bondholders, (iv) Basic Principal
Payment Amount, (v) Insurer Reimbursement Amount,
(vi) Excess Cashflow Principal Amount, (vii)
certain payments necessary to reimburse the Servicer
or Bond Trustee, and (viii) any remaining amounts
to the holder of the Investor Certificate.
Convertible Loans: Convertible Mortgage Loans allow the borrower to
convert the adjustable rate to a fixed rate (0.73% of
the Pool Balance as of the Cut-off Date) and to a
different Index (100% of the Pool Balance as of
the Cut-off Date). Index Convertible Mortgage Loans
allow the borrower to convert its Index to a
different Index. The frequency of the Interest
Adjustment Date may not be changed in connection
with such conversion.
The Servicer is obligated to purchase any mortgage loan
that converts to a fixed rate. The Servicer will not
purchase a mortgage loan upon its conversion to
another index.
Optional
Termination: The Issuer may redeem the Class A Bonds remaining
outstanding on any Distribution Date at the earlier
of: (a) 10 years from the Closing Date, or (b) when
the aggregate unpaid Principal Balance of such Mortgage
Loans is less than 25% of the aggregate unpaid
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans on the Cut-off
Date. If an election to redeem the Bonds is made,
the Issuer must redeem both Class A-1 and Class A-2
Bonds.
The Bond Insurer may redeem the Class A Bonds
remaining outstanding on the Distribution Date when
the aggregate unpaid Principal Balance of such
Mortgage Loans is less than 5% of the aggregate unpaid
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans on the Cut-off
Date. The Call Price on the Class A-1 Bonds will be
set at the price at which the Class A-1 Bonds are
expected to be offered, (103)%. The Call Price on the
Class A-2 Bonds is par.
COLLATERAL:
All PrimeFirst(Registered Trademark) loans are high balance, adjustable rate
mortgage loans secured by first liens on 1-4 family residential properties.
All the mortgage loans in Sequoia Mortgage Trust 2 are PrimeFirst(Registered
Trademark) loans that were originated by Merrill Lynch Credit Corporation or
acquired by it in the course of its correspondent lending activities. In
general, each PrimeFirst(Registered Trademark) loan acquired as of the
Closing Date will have an original term to maturity of 25 years and is
scheduled to pay only interest for the first 10 years of its term.
Each mortgage loan has an interest rate that adjusts either a) monthly to a
spread over 1 Month LIBOR, Prime or the 1 Year Treasury, or b) semi-annually
to a spread over either 6 Month LIBOR, Prime, or 1 Year Treasury. The
Mortgage Loans have lifetime rate caps but no periodic rate caps.
The following statistics relate to the $764,291,900 of Mortgage Loans
expected to be transferred to the Owner Trust on the Closing Date (subject to
loan substitutions to be completed prior to the Closing Date and expected not
to exceed 5% of the Outstanding Principal Balance).
