         Item 5.  OTHER EVENTS.

                  On or about September 4, 1998, the Registrant will cause the
         issuance and sale of approximately $800,000,000 initial principal
         amount of Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 1998-B, Class A-1,
         Class A-2, Class A-IO, Class M-1, Class M-2, Class B, Class C, Class
         R-I, Class R-II, and Class R-III (collectively, the "Certificates")
         pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be dated as of
         September, 1998, by and among the Registrant, as company, WMC Mortgage
         Corp., as master servicer, and The First National Bank of Chicago, as
         trustee.

                  In connection with the sale of Mortgage Pass-Through
         Certificates, Series 1998-B, Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-IO, Class
         M-1, Class M-2 and Class B (collectively, the "Underwritten
         Certificates"), the Registrant has been advised by Bear, Stearns & Co.
         Inc., NationsBanc Montgomery Securities LLC, Lehman Brothers Inc.,
         Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation and First Union Capital Markets,
         a division of Wheat First Securities, Inc. (together, the
         "Underwriters") that the Underwriters have furnished to prospective
         investors certain yield tables and other computational materials and
         structural term sheets (collectively, the "Computational Materials")
         with respect to the Underwritten Certificates following the effective
         date of Registration Statement No. 333-59687, which Computational
         Materials are being filed as exhibits to this report.

                    The information in the Computational Materials will be
         superseded by the Prospectus Supplement relating to the Certificates
         and by any other information subsequently filed with the Securities and
         Exchange Commission.

                  The Computational Materials were prepared by the Underwriters
         at the request of certain prospective investors, based on collateral
         information provided by the Registrant and assumptions provided by, and
         satisfying the special requirements of, such prospective investors. The
         Computational Materials may be based on assumptions that differ from
         the assumptions set forth in the Prospectus Supplement. The
         Computational Materials may not include, and do not purport to include,
         information based on assumptions representing a complete set of
         possible scenarios. Accordingly, the Computational Materials may not be
         relevant to or appropriate for investors other than those specifically
         requesting them.

                  In addition, the actual characteristics and performance of the
         mortgage loans underlying the Underwritten Certificates (the "Mortgage
         Loans") may differ from the assumptions used in the Computational
         Materials, which are hypothetical in nature and which were provided to
         certain investors only to give a general sense of how the yield,
         average life, duration, expected maturity, interest rate sensitivity
         and cash flow characteristics of a particular class of Underwritten
         Certificates might vary under varying prepayment and other scenarios.
         Any difference between such assumptions and the actual characteristics
         and performance of the Mortgage Loans will affect the actual yield,
         average

      STATEMENT REGARDING ASSUMPTIONS AS TO SECURITIES, PRICING ESTIMATES,
                             AND OTHER INFORMATION


The information contained in the attached materials (the "Information") may
include various forms of performance analysis, security characteristics and
securities pricing estimates for the securities addressed. Please read and
understand this entire statement before utilizing the Information. The
Information is provided solely by Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. ("Bear Stearns"), not
as agent for any issuer, and although it may be based on data supplied to it by
an issuer, the issuer has not participated in its preparation and makes no
representations regarding its accuracy or completeness. Should you receive
Information that refers to the "Statement Regarding Assumptions and Other
Information," please refer to this statement instead.

The Information is illustrative and is not intended to predict actual results
which may differ substantially from those reflected in the Information.
Performance analysis is based on certain assumptions with respect to significant
factors that may prove not to be as assumed. You should understand the
assumptions and evaluate whether they are appropriate for your purposes.
Performance results are based on mathematical models that use inputs to
calculate results. As with all models, results may vary significantly depending
upon the value of the inputs given. Inputs to these models include but are not
limited to: prepayment expectations (economic prepayment models, single expected
lifetime prepayments or a vector of periodic prepayments), interest rate
assumptions (parallel and nonparallel changes for different maturity
instruments), collateral assumptions (actual pool level data, aggregated pool
level data, reported factors or imputed factors), volatility assumptions
(historically observed or implied current) and reported information (paydown
factors, rate resets, and trustee statements). Models used in any analysis may
be proprietary making the results difficult for any third party to reproduce.
Contact your registered representative for detailed explanations of any modeling
techniques employed in the Information.

The Information addresses only certain aspects of the applicable security's
characteristics and thus does not provide a complete assessment. As such, the
Information may not reflect the impact of all structural characteristics of the
security, including call events and cash flow priorities at all prepayment
speeds and/or interest rates. You should consider whether the behavior of these
securities should be tested as assumptions different from those included in the
Information. The assumptions underlying the Information, including structure and
collateral may be modified from time to time to reflect changed circumstances.
Any investment decision should be based only on the data in the prospectus and
the prospectus supplement or private placement memorandum (Offering Documents)
and the then current version of the Information. Offering Documents contain data
that is current as of their publication dates and after publication may no
longer be complete or current. Contact your registered representative for
Offering Documents, current Information or additional materials, including other
models for performance analysis which are likely to produce different results,
and any further explanation regarding the Information.

Any pricing estimates Bear Stearns has supplied at your request (a) represent
our view, at the time determined, of the investment value of the securities
between the estimated bid and offer levels, the spread between which may be
significant due to market volatility or illiquidity, (b) do not constitute a bid
by any person for any security, (c) may not constitute prices at which the
securities could have been purchased or sold in any market, (d) have not been
confirmed by actual trades, may vary from the value Bear Stearns assigns any
such security while in its inventory, and may not take into account the size of
a position you have in the security, and (e) may have been derived from matrix
pricing that uses data relating to other securities whose prices are more
readily ascertainable to produce a hypothetical price based on the estimated
yield spread relationship between the securities.

GENERAL INFORMATION: The data underlying the Information has been obtained from
sources that we believe are reliable, but we do not guarantee the accuracy of
the underlying data or computations based thereon. Bear Stearns and/or
individuals thereof may have positions in these securities while the Information
is circulating or during such period may engage in transactions with the issuer
or its affiliates. We act as principal in transactions with you, and
accordingly, you must determine the appropriateness for you of such transactions
and address any legal, tax, or accounting considerations applicable to you. Bear
Stearns shall not be a fiduciary or advisor unless we have agreed in writing to
receive compensation specifically to act in such capacities. If you are subject
to ERISA, the Information is being furnished on the condition that it will not
form a primary basis for any investment decision. The Information is not a
solicitation of any transaction in securities which may be made only by
prospectus when required by law, in which event you may obtain such prospectus
from Bear Stearns.

 (1) Bear Stearns is Sole Manager of the Class A-IO Certificates.
 (2) Amount set forth based upon a Notional Amount described herein.
 (3) For modeling purposes assumed one-month LIBOR of 5.64453% and coupons based
     on one-month LIBOR+0.06% for the Class A-1; one-month LIBOR+0.19% for the
     Class A-2; one-month LIBOR+0.35% for the Class M-1; one-month LIBOR+0.58%
     for the Class M-2; and one-month LIBOR+1.17% for the Class B. For
     collateral modeling purposes, six-month LIBOR was assumed to be 5.71875%.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE CERTIFICATES:

The Certificates are backed by six-month LIBOR-indexed, "2/28," "3/27" and
"5/25" conventional, adjustable-rate mortgage loans.

All Classes are priced to call.

Classes are payable monthly starting 10/20/98; the floating-rate Certificates
pay on an Actual/360 basis and the fixed-rate Class A-IO Certificates pay on a
30/360 basis.

Floating-rate Classes reset monthly to one month LIBOR plus their respective
margins subject to the available funds cap with no delay.

Optional call is 10% of the Assumed Pool Principal Balance. Step function is
subject to available funds cap. If the loans are not called, the Certificate
Margin of the Class A-1 and Class A-2 Certificates will increase by a multiple
of 2X and the Certificate Margin of the Subordinate Certificates will increase
by a multiple of 1.5X. Adjustable-rate mortgage loans pricing speeds: 25%
constant CPR.

The applicable Pass-through Rate with respect to the Class A-IO Certificates is
equal to 5.50% for the first 12 Distribution Dates, 4.00% for the 13th through
the 24th Distribution Dates, 2.50% for the 25th through the 30th Distribution
Dates, and 0.00% thereafter. The Class A-IO Certificates will be divided into
three components, which are not separately transferable as distinct securities.

STRUCTURE SUMMARY:

Credit enhancement is provided using excess cash, overcollateralization and
subordination. The initial Overcollateralization Amount is equal to 0.00% of the
sum of the Cut-off Date Pool Principal Balance and the Original Pre-funded
Amount. The Required Overcollateralization Amount is equal to 3.85% of the
Cut-off Date Pool Principal Balance and the Original Pre-funded Amount.

On each Distribution Date (a) before the Stepdown Date or (b) with respect to
which a Trigger Event is in effect, the Principal Distribution Amount will be
distributed sequentially to the Class A-1, the Class A-2, the Class M-1, the
Class M-2 and the Class B Certificates, in that order, until each Certificate
Principal Balance of each such class has been reduced to zero.

Following the occurrence of the Stepdown Date and so long as no Trigger Event is
in effect, the Class A-1 and the Class A-2 Certificates will sequentially
receive 100% of the Principal Distribution Amount until the Required
Overcollateralization Amount is reached. At the point when this event occurs,
the Class B Certificates will have 7.7% subordination, the Class M-2
Certificates will have 19.7% subordination, the Class M-1 Certificates will have
33.7% subordination and the Class A-1 and A-2 Certificates will have 49.7%
subordination. The Certificates will be paid in the proper proportions to keep
these subordination levels in line until the Overcollateralization Amount
reaches a floor equal to 0.50% of the sum of the Cut-off Date Pool Principal
Balance and the Original Pre-funded Amount. At and after that point, the
Overcollateralization Amount will remain constant at the floor.

The Class C Certificates and the Residual Certificates, which are not offered,
will get all excess cash, if any, on each Distribution Date after payment to the
Class A-IO, Class A-1, Class A-2, Class M-1, Class M-2 and Class B of all
amounts to which they are entitled.

                                    Distribution Date up to the Distribution
                                    Date on which the aggregate principal
                                    balance of the Mortgage Loans is reduced to
                                    10% or less of the Assumed Pool Principal
                                    Balance (as defined herein), or One-Month
                                    LIBOR plus their respective higher margins,
                                    in the case of any Distribution Date

                                    (as defined herein). The applicable Interest
                                    Accrual Period with respect to each
                                    Distribution Date and class of Floating-rate
                                    Certificates is the Period from the
                                    Distribution Date in the month preceding the

                                    case of the first Distribution Date, from
                                    the Closing Date) through the day before
                                    such Distribution Date.

                                    On each Distribution Date, the holders of
                                    the Class A-IO Certificates will be entitled
                                    to receive, to the extent of amounts

                                    herein, interest distributions in an amount
                                    equal to the sum of (i) interest accrued for
                                    the related Interest Accrual Period on the

                                    Date. The applicable Pass-through Rate with
                                    respect to the Class A-IO Certificates is
                                    equal to 5.50% for the first 12 Distribution
                                    Dates, 4.00% for the 13th through the 24th
                                    Distribution Dates, 2.50% for the 25th
                                    through the 30th Distribution Dates, and
                                    0.00% thereafter. The "Notional Amount" for
                                    the Class A-IO Certificates will be equal to
                                    10% of the aggregate Certificate Principal
                                    Balances of the Floating-rate Certificates
                                    as of the Closing Date.

                                    subject to an Available Funds Cap equal to
                                    the weighted average of the rates on the
                                    Mortgage Loans as of the second day of the
                                    month preceding the month of such
                                    Distribution Date less an amount equal to
                                    the sum of the Servicing Fee Rate and the
                                    applicable Pass-through Rate with respect to
                                    the Class A-IO Certificates.

                                   Additional Mortgage Loans originated or
                                   acquired prior to the Closing Date (the
                                   "Additional Mortgage Loans") will also be
                                   included in the assets of the Trust. It is
                                   anticipated that the aggregate principal
                                   balance of the Additional Mortgage Loans as
                                   of the Cut-off Date will not exceed
                                   $80,000,000. The "Initial Pool Principal
                                   Balance" is defined as the sum of the
                                   principal balances of the Initial Mortgage
                                   Loans and the Additional Mortgage Loans as of
                                   the Closing Date. The Initial Pool Principal
                                   Balance is subject to a permitted variance of
                                   5%+/-.


PRE-FUNDING FEATURE:               An amount equal to the excess of the
                                   Aggregate Certificate Principal Balance over
                                   the Initial Pool Principal Balance plus the
                                   overcollateralization amount (the "Original
                                   Pre-funded Amount") will be deposited on the
                                   Closing Date for the acquisition of Mortgage
                                   Loans (the "Subsequent Mortgage Loans")
                                   during a 90 day period following the Closing
                                   Date. Any amount not so used will be
                                   distributed to the holders of the Class A-1
                                   Certificates. It is anticipated that the
                                   Original Pre-funded Amount will be
                                   approximately $120,000,000, which will be
                                   deposited in a Pre-funding Account.

ASSUMED POOL PRINCIPAL
BALANCE:                           The sum of (i) the Initial Pool Principal
                                   Balance and (ii) the amount deposited in the
                                   Pre-funding Account. This amount represents
                                   the approximate final pool of Mortgage Loans
                                   for the transaction, after amounts in the
                                   Pre-funding Account have been used to
                                   purchase Subsequent Mortgage Loans as
                                   described under the caption "Pre-funding
                                   Feature" above.

STEPDOWN DATE:                     The "Stepdown Date" means the latter to occur
                                   of:

                                    2)  The first Distribution Date on which the
                                        Senior Enhancement Percentage is greater
                                        than or  equal to the  Senior  Specified

Servicing Fee/
Trustee Fee:                        The Trust is subject to certain fees,
                                    including a Servicing Fee of approximately
                                    0.51% per annum payable monthly at
                                    one-twelfth of the annual rate. The Trustee
                                    Fee will be paid separately by the Master
                                    Servicer and will not be deducted from cash
                                    flows allocable to the Trust.

Denominations:                      $25,000 minimum and integral multiples of $1
                                    in excess thereof, except for the Class A-IO
                                    Certificates, which will be issued in
                                    minimum denominations of a 20% percentage
                                    interest and integral multiples of 0.01% in
                                    excess thereof. The Class A-IO Certificates
                                    will be divided into three components (each,
                                    a "Component"). The Class A-IO Components
                                    are not separately transferable as distinct
                                    securities.

Tax Status:                         For federal income tax purposes, two or more
                                    real estate mortgage investment conduit
                                    (each, a "REMIC") elections will be made and
                                    each REMIC will qualify as a REMIC under the
                                    Internal Revenue Code.

ERISA Eligibility:                  The Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-IO
                                    Certificates only will be ERISA eligible.
                                    Prospective pension plan investors should
                                    consult their own counsel with respect to an
                                    investment in the Offered Certificates. The
                                    Class M-1, Class M-2 and Class B
                                    Certificates will not be ERISA eligible.

SMMEA Treatment:                    At such time as the Pre-funding Account has
                                    been reduced to zero, the Senior
                                    Certificates and the Class M-1 Certificates
                                    will constitute "mortgage related
                                    securities" for purposes of SMMEA. The Class
                                    M-2 and Class B Certificates will not
                                    constitute "mortgage related securities" for
                                    purposes of SMMEA.

Prospectus:                         The Offered Certificates are being offered
                                    pursuant to a prospectus which includes a
                                    prospectus supplement (together, the
                                    "Prospectus"). Complete information with
                                    respect to the Offered Certificates and the
                                    Mortgage Loans is contained in the
                                    Prospectus. The material presented herein is
                                    qualified in its entirety by the information
                                    appearing in the Prospectus. To the extent
                                    that the foregoing is inconsistent with the
                                    Prospectus, the Prospectus shall govern in
                                    all respects. Sales of the Offered
                                    Certificates may not be consummated unless
                                    the purchaser has received the Prospectus.
