Item 5.  Other Events.


                  On June 26, 1998, the Registrant expects to cause the issuance
         and sale of Mortgage  Pass-Through  Certificates,  Series 1998-KS2 (the
         "Certificates")  pursuant to a Pooling and  Servicing  Agreement  to be
         dated as of June 1, 1998,  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
         1998-KS2,the  Class A-I-1, Class A-I-2, Class A-I-3, Class A-I-4, Class
         A-I-5,  Class A-I-6,  Class  A-I-7,  Class  A-I-8,  Class A-I-9,  Class
         A-II-1,  Class A-II-2,  Class M-I-1, M-I-2 and Class M-I-3 Certificates
         (the "Underwritten  Certificates"),  the Registrant has been advised by
         Residential Funding Securities  Corporation (the  "Underwriter"),  that
         the  Underwriter  has  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.

                   In   connection   with  the  expected   sale  of  the  Series
         1998-KS2,the  Class A-I-1, Class A-I-2, Class A-I-3, Class A-I-4, Class
         A-I-5,  Class A-I-6,  Class  A-I-7,  Class  A-I-8,  Class A-I-9,  Class
         A-II-1,  Class  A-II-2,  Class  M-I-1,  Class  M-I-2  and  Class  M-I-3
         Certificates (the "Underwritten Certificates"), the Registrant has been
         advised by Prudential Securities Incorporated (the "Underwriter"), that
         the  Underwriter  has  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 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         Materials  is  preliminary  and  may be  superseded  by the  Prospectus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  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,

                                       -3-

         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 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.
