Item 5Other Events.


            On November 25, 1997, the  Registrant  expects to cause the issuance
      and sale of  Mortgage  Pass-Through  Certificates,  Series  1997-KS4  (the
      "Certificates")  pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be dated
      as  of  November  1,  1997,  among  the  Registrant,  Residential  Funding
      Corporation,  as Master Servicer,  and The First National Bank of Chicago,
      as Trustee.

            In  connection  with  the  expected  sale  of  the  Series  1997-KS4
      Certificates,  the  Registrant  has been  advised by  Residential  Funding
      Securities  Corporation  (the  "Underwriter"),  that the  Underwriter  has
      furnished to prospective  investors  certain  collateral  information with
      respect to the mortgage loans ("Mortgage  Loans")  underlying the proposed
      offering  of  the  Certificates  (the  "Collateral  Term  Sheets"),  which
      Collateral  Term  Sheets are being  filed  manually  as  exhibits  to this
      report.

            The  Collateral  Term Sheets have been provided by the  Underwriter.
      The  information in the Collateral  Term Sheets is preliminary and will be
      superseded  by the  Description  of the  Mortgage  Pool  contained  in the
      Prospectus  Supplement  relating  to the  Certificates  and  by any  other
      information   subsequently   filed  with  the   Securities   and  Exchange
      Commission.

            The Collateral  Term Sheets were prepared by the  Underwriter at the
      request of certain prospective  investors.  The Collateral Term Sheets may
      be based on information that differs from the information set forth in the
      Prospectus Supplement.

            In  addition,  the actual  characteristics  and  performance  of the
      Mortgage Loans underlying the Certificates may differ from the information
      provided in the  Collateral  Term Sheets,  which were  provided to certain
      investors  only to give a sense of the  underlying  collateral  which will
      effect   the   maturity,   interest   rate   sensitivity   and  cash  flow
      characteristics of the Certificates. Any difference between the collateral
      information in the Collateral  Term Sheets and the actual  characteristics
      of the  Mortgage  Loans  will  affect  the  actual  yield,  average  life,
      duration,  expected  maturity,  interest  rate  sensitivity  and cash flow
      characteristics of the Certificates.
