Item 5.  Other 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         preliminary  and will be superseded by the  Description of the Mortgage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.
