When a person or entity (“Lender”) loans money to another person or entity (“Borrower”), the loan is typically formalized with a promissory note. In this type of promissory note (a monthly-installment promissory note) the Borrower promises to repay the principal of the loan and accrued interest, if any, over a period time in equal monthly installments. A promissory note will set forth, among other things, the repayment schedule, the interest rate, and defaults.

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 Vermont.

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 formalizes a loan agreement where the borrower agrees to repay the loan amount in equal monthly installments, with the loan secured by collateral. This ensures that the lender has a claim on the collateral in case of default.

Collateral is an asset pledged by the borrower to secure the loan. If the borrower fails to repay the loan as agreed, the lender has the right to take possession of the collateral to recover the outstanding amount.

Yes, this form can be used for personal loans as long as both parties agree to the terms and conditions outlined in the promissory note and security agreement. It provides legal protection for both the lender and the borrower.

If the borrower defaults on the loan, the lender can take legal action to recover the owed amount, which may include seizing the collateral specified in the security agreement. The exact process will depend on state laws and the terms of the agreement.

While it is not legally required to have a lawyer review the document, it is highly advisable. A legal professional can ensure that the terms are fair, compliant with state laws, and that both parties fully understand their rights and obligations.

Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals who need to formalize a loan agreement with a friend or family member can utilize this secured installment promissory note to ensure clarity and legal protection for both parties. This document outlines the repayment terms and provides security through collateral, reducing the risk of disputes.
  • Businesses seeking to finance equipment purchases may find this form essential. By securing the loan with the purchased equipment as collateral, the business can negotiate better terms and protect the lender's investment in case of default.
  • In situations where a property owner wishes to lend money to a buyer for a real estate transaction, this note can serve as a crucial tool. It allows the lender to secure their investment with the property itself, ensuring they have recourse in the event of non-payment.
  • For those involved in personal loans, using a secured installment promissory note can help establish a clear repayment plan. This form provides both parties with a structured timeline and legal backing, which can foster trust and accountability.
  • Situations requiring a clear outline of loan terms and conditions can benefit from this document. It not only specifies the repayment schedule and interest but also details the rights of the lender regarding the collateral, making it a comprehensive solution for secured lending.

Do Not Use If:

  • – This form is not appropriate for unsecured loans, where no collateral is provided. In such cases, a different type of promissory note should be utilized that does not involve security agreements.
  • – If the loan amount is very small and informal, such as a personal loan between friends, using this formal document may be unnecessary and could complicate a simple transaction.
  • – In situations where the borrower is a business entity and the loan involves complex financial arrangements, it may be better to consult with a legal professional to draft a more tailored agreement.
  • – This form should not be used if the collateral is not legally owned by the borrower. The borrower must have the right to pledge the collateral as security for the loan to avoid legal issues.
  • – If the parties involved are not in agreement on the terms or if there is a lack of trust, it may be better to resolve those issues before formalizing a loan with this document.
