In addition this packet includes a security agreement. Often, the Lender may want additional assurance that the Borrower will repay the loan. This assurance usually takes the form of collateral, property pledged as security for a debt. To ensure that that collateral is collectible in the case of a default, the parties will enter into a security agreement, an agreement that sets out the rights of the Lender with regard to the collateral. The security agreement included in this packet is designed to work together with the above promissory note.
This form can be used in California.
This packet contains: (1) Instructions and Checklist for the Secured 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 promissory note is a written agreement where a borrower promises to repay a loan to a lender, with the loan being backed by collateral. This means that if the borrower defaults, the lender has the right to claim the collateral to recover the owed amount.
The repayment options available in this form include on-demand, monthly installments, and scheduled installments. You should consider your financial situation and cash flow to select the option that best fits your needs.
This secured promissory note is specifically designed for use in California. While some elements may be applicable in other states, it is advisable to consult a legal professional to ensure compliance with local laws.
If the borrower defaults on the loan, the lender can enforce the security agreement to claim the collateral. The specific remedies and processes for default are outlined in the promissory note and security agreement.
Yes, the terms of the promissory note can be modified if both parties agree to the changes. It is recommended to document any modifications in writing to maintain clarity and legal enforceability.
Collateral can include various types of property, such as real estate, vehicles, or other valuable assets. The specific type of collateral should be clearly defined in the security agreement.
While it is not strictly necessary to have a lawyer, consulting with one can help ensure that the document meets all legal requirements and adequately protects your interests.
To complete the form, you will need to provide details such as the names of the lender and borrower, the loan amount, interest rate, repayment terms, and a description of the collateral being secured.
Is This Form Right For You?
Use This Form If:
- Individuals who are lending money to friends or family may find this form useful to formalize the loan agreement. By using a secured promissory note, they can ensure that the loan is documented and that there are clear expectations regarding repayment.
- Small business owners looking to secure funding from private lenders can utilize this form to outline the terms of their loan. The inclusion of multiple repayment options allows them to negotiate terms that align with their cash flow and financial strategy.
- Real estate investors may require a secured promissory note when financing property purchases. This document not only provides a clear repayment schedule but also secures the loan against the property, giving lenders confidence in their investment.
- In situations where a borrower may have a less-than-perfect credit history, lenders can use this form to mitigate risk. By securing the loan with collateral, lenders can protect their interests while still providing necessary funds to the borrower.
- When entering into a loan agreement for significant amounts, both parties may prefer a written document to avoid misunderstandings. This secured promissory note ensures that all terms are clearly stated and legally binding.
Do Not Use If:
- – This form is not appropriate for unsecured loans, where no collateral is involved. In such cases, a standard promissory note without security provisions would be more suitable.
- – If the loan amount is very small, informal agreements may suffice. Using a formal secured promissory note for minor loans can be unnecessarily complicated and may not be cost-effective.
- – In situations where the borrower has a poor credit history and the lender is not comfortable with the risk, alternative financing options or guarantees may be more appropriate than a secured promissory note.
- – This form should not be used for loans involving illegal activities or purposes. Any loan agreement must comply with state and federal laws to be enforceable.
- – If the lender is not willing to accept collateral for the loan, this form would not be suitable. A secured promissory note requires collateral to provide security for the loan.
