Item 5Other Events.

            On December 30,  1998,  the  Registrant  will cause the issuance and
      sale of  approximately  $651,659,773  nitial  principal amount of Mortgage
      Pass-Through  Certificates,  Series 1998-S31,  Class A-1, Class A-2, Class
      A-3,  Class A-4,  Class A-5,  Class A-6,  Class A-7, Class A-8, Class A-9,
      Class A-P, Class A-V, Class R, Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3, Class B-1,
      Class B-2 and Class B-3 (the  "Certificates")  pursuant  to a Pooling  and
      Servicing  Agreement  to be  dated  as of  December  1,  1998,  among  the
      Registrant,  Residential Funding Corporation,  as Master Servicer, and The
      First National Bank of Chicago, as Trustee.

            In connection with the sale of the Series 1998-S31, Class A-1, Class
      A-2,  Class A- 3, Class A-4,  Class A-5,  Class A-6, Class A-7, Class A-8,
      Class A-9, and Class R  Certificates,  other than a de minimis  portion of
      the Class R Certificates,  (the "PaineWebber Underwritten  Certificates"),
      to  PaineWebber  Incorporated  ("PaineWebber")  and the sale of the Series
      1998-S31,  Class M-1,  Class M-2 and Class M- 3  Certificates,  (the "Bear
      Stearns   Underwritten   Certificates";   together  with  the  PaineWebber
      Underwritten  Certificates,  the  "Underwritten  Certificates")  to  Bear,
      Stearns  & Co.  Inc.  ("Bear  Stearns";  together  with  PaineWebber,  the
      "Underwriters"),  the Registrant has been advised by the Underwriters that
      the  Underwriters  have furnished to prospective  investors  certain yield
      tables and other computational  materials (the "Computational  Materials")
      with respect to the Underwritten Certificates following the effective date
      of Registration Statement No. 330-57481, which Computational Materials are
      being filed manually as exhibits to this report.

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      superseded by the Prospectus  Supplement  relating to the Certificates and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

            The  Computational  Materials  consist  of the  first 14 pages  (the
      "Computational  Materials")  that appear after the Form SE cover sheet and
      the page headed  "NOTICE".  The  Underwriters  have advised the Registrant
      that certain  information  in the  Computational  Materials  may have been
      based on assumptions that differed from the final pool information.

            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  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

                                    -3-

      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  life,  duration,
      expected maturity, interest rate sensitivity and cash flow characteristics
      of a particular class of Underwritten Certificates.
