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 term promissory note) the Borrower promises to repay the principal of the loan and accrued interest, if any, on or before a certain date in the future. 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

A secured promissory note is a legal document that outlines the terms of a loan where the borrower pledges collateral to the lender. This ensures that the lender has a claim to the collateral if the borrower defaults on the loan.

A security agreement complements a promissory note by detailing the rights of the lender regarding the collateral. It specifies what happens in the event of a default and how the lender can reclaim the collateral.

Yes, this form can be used for personal loans as long as the lender requires security for the loan. It is particularly useful in informal lending situations among friends or family.

If the borrower defaults on the loan, the lender can take possession of the collateral as outlined in the security agreement. This legal right provides a layer of protection for the lender.

This specific form is designed for use in Wisconsin. While similar forms may exist in other states, it is important to use a document that complies with the laws of the relevant jurisdiction.

Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals who are lending money to friends or family may want to formalize the loan with a secured promissory note. This document provides legal protection and clarity on repayment terms, ensuring that both parties understand their obligations.
  • Businesses seeking to finance equipment purchases often use a secured term promissory note. By securing the loan with the purchased equipment as collateral, the business can negotiate better interest rates and terms with the lender.
  • Situations requiring a clear agreement between a lender and borrower can benefit from this form. For instance, real estate investors may use a secured promissory note to finance property acquisitions, providing security against the property itself.
  • In cases where a borrower has a poor credit history, lenders may require a secured promissory note to mitigate risk. This ensures that if the borrower defaults, the lender has a claim to the collateral specified in the security agreement.
  • For those involved in real estate transactions, this form can be essential. It allows sellers to finance buyers directly while retaining a security interest in the property until the loan is fully repaid.

Do Not Use If:

  • – This form is not appropriate for unsecured loans where no collateral is involved. In such cases, a simple promissory note without security provisions would suffice.
  • – If the loan is intended for a business purpose and involves complex financing structures, a more detailed legal agreement may be necessary. This form may not cover all the required terms for commercial loans.
  • – In situations where the borrower is a corporation or LLC, additional legal considerations may apply. It is advisable to consult a legal professional to ensure compliance with corporate governance and state laws.
  • – This form should not be used if the loan is for illegal activities. Engaging in financing for unlawful purposes can lead to severe legal consequences for both parties.
  • – If the lender does not want to take any collateral for the loan, this form would not be suitable. A standard promissory note without security provisions would be more appropriate.
