Item 5.   Other Events.


          On September 24, 1996,  the  Registrant  expects to cause the issuance

     "Certificates")  pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing  Agreement to be dated
     as  of  September  1,  1996,  among  the  Registrant,  Residential  Funding

          In  connection  with the expected sale of the Series  1996-KS4,  Class
     A-I-1, A-I-2, A-I-3, A-I-4 and A-I-5
    Certificates (the  "Salomon Brothers Inc "Underwritten Certificates")
     and the Class A-I-1 and A-I-3 (the Residential Funding Securities
    Corporation  "Underwritten   Certificates"),   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     Materials is preliminary and may be superseded by the Prospectus Supplement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  Underwriter 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


<PAGE>



     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.
