Item 5.  Other Events.

     On July 30,  1998,  the  Registrant  will  cause the  issuance  and sale of
approximately  $152,776,676  initial  principal amount of Mortgage  Pass-Through
Certificates, Series 1998-S16, Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4, Class
A-5,  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 July 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-S16,  Class A-1, Class A-2,
Class A- 3 and Class R  Certificates,  other  than a de  minimis  portion of the
Class R  Certificates  (the  "Underwritten  Certificates"),  to  Merrill  Lynch,
Pierce,  Fenner & Smith Incorporated (the "Underwriter") the Registrant has been
advised by the  Underwriter  that the  Underwriter  has 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.  33-57481,  which
Computational Materials are being filed manually as exhibits to this report.

     The  Computational  Materials  have been provided by the  Underwriter.  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information in the Computational  Materials is preliminary and may be superseded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  99  pages  (the
"Computational  Materials")  that  appear  after the Form SE cover sheet and the
page headed  "NOTICE".  The  Underwriter has 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 Underwriter 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 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

                                       -3-

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.
