Often the Lender will want some additional assurance, usually in the form of collateral, in case the Borrower fails to repay the loan. To ensure that that collateral is collectible in the case of a default, the parties will usually enter into another agreement—a security agreement. A security agreement sets out the rights of the Lender with regard to the collateral.
This form can be used in California.
This package contains: (1) Instructions and Checklist for the Secured Installment Promissory Note (the “Note”) and the Security Agreement (the “Agreement”); (2) Information about the Note and Agreement; (3) the Note; and (4) the Agreement.

Frequently Asked Questions
A secured installment promissory note is a legal document that outlines the terms of a loan where the borrower agrees to repay the principal and interest in regular installments. It is secured by collateral, providing the lender with a claim to the property if the borrower defaults.
Collateral in a promissory note serves as security for the loan. If the borrower fails to repay, the lender can claim the collateral to recover their losses, making it a crucial aspect of secured loans.
Yes, promissory notes in California are governed by both state and federal laws. It is important for both lenders and borrowers to understand these regulations to ensure that their agreements are legally enforceable.
If a borrower defaults on a secured installment promissory note, the lender has the right to take possession of the collateral as outlined in the security agreement. This process may involve legal proceedings to reclaim the secured property.
Yes, this form can be used for personal loans between individuals, as long as both parties agree to the terms and conditions outlined in the promissory note and security agreement.
Is This Form Right For You?
Use This Form If:
- Individuals who are lending money to friends or family may utilize this form to formalize the loan agreement, ensuring that both parties understand the repayment terms and obligations. This helps prevent misunderstandings and provides legal recourse if the borrower defaults.
- Small business owners seeking to secure financing for their operations can use this promissory note to outline the terms of the loan and the collateral involved. By having a written agreement, they can protect their interests and clarify the repayment schedule.
- Real estate investors often require a secured installment promissory note when financing property purchases. This document not only specifies the loan terms but also secures the investment against the property itself, providing added security for the lender.
- In situations where a borrower needs to consolidate debt, they may enter into a secured installment promissory note to refinance existing loans. This allows them to manage their payments more effectively while providing the lender with collateral.
- Landlords may use this form when offering financing to tenants for property improvements. By securing the loan with the property, landlords can ensure repayment while also enhancing the value of their investment.
Do Not Use If:
- – This form is not appropriate for unsecured loans, where no collateral is involved. In such cases, a different type of promissory note should be utilized that does not require a security agreement.
- – If the loan amount is very small, it may be more practical to use a simple IOU rather than a formal promissory note. The complexity of this document may not be justified for minor loans.
- – In situations where the borrower has a poor credit history or is unlikely to repay, lenders may want to reconsider using this form and explore other options, as the security may not provide adequate protection.
- – This form should not be used for loans that are intended for illegal activities. Any agreement that involves illegal purposes is unenforceable and can lead to legal complications.
- – If the parties involved are not in California, this form may not be suitable due to differing state laws regarding promissory notes and security agreements.
