Item 5.               Other Events.


  On November 26, 1996, the Registrant expects to cause
the issuance and sale of Mortgage Pass-Through
Certificates, Series 1996-S23 (the "Certificates")
pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be
dated as of November 1, 1996, among the Registrant,
Residential Funding Corporation, as Master Servicer,
and Bankers Trust Company, as Trustee.

  In connection with the expected sale of the Series
1996-S23, Classes A-1,A-2, A-3, A-4, A-5, A-6, A-7, A-8, A-
9, A-10, A-11,A-12,A-13,A-15,A-16,  R-I, R-II, 
Certificates (the  "Donaldson,Lufkin & Jenrette
Underwritten Certificates"), and the Class M-1,M-2 and M-3 (the
"Residential Funding Securities Corporation Underwritten
Certificates").   The  Donaldson,Lufkin & Jenrette certificates along with the
Residential Funding Securities Corporation underwritten certificates
 are hereinafter referred to collectively
as the "Underwritten Certificates"), the Registrant has
been advised by Donaldson,Lufkin & Jenrette  and RFSC (collectively, the
"Underwriters")
that the Underwriters have furnished to prospective
investors certain computational materials (the
"Computational Materials") with respect to the
Underwritten Certificates following the effective date
of the related Registration Statement, which
Computational Materials are being filed manually as an
exhibit to this report.

  The Computational Materials filed herewith as Exhibit
99 have been provided by the Underwriters.  The
information in the Computational Materials is
preliminary and may be superseded by the Prospectus
Supplement relating to the Certificates and by any
other related 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 assumptions provided by, and
satisfying the special requirements of, such investors. 
The Computational Materials may be based on assumptions
that differ from the assumptions set forth in the
related 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
Certificates 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 may very
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 life, duration,
expected maturity, interest rate sensitivity and cash
flow characteristics of a particular class of
Underwritten Certificates.

  Certain assumptions may have been made in the
Computational Materials which have resulted in certain
returns which are detailed in the Computational
Materials.  No representation is made that any returns
set forth in the Computational Materials will be
achieved.  Changes to the assumptions used therein may
have a material impact on any returns detailed.  Past
performance is not indicative of future results.
