Loan Agreements
Even between relatives or close friends, a clear agreement protects both the money and the relationship.
How the guidance works
Thorough handling,
step by step.
A loan agreement clearly records the amount, the date and method of transferring the funds, the repayment terms and each party’s obligations. It is particularly important for loans between relatives, friends or partners, or when the funds are intended for purchasing property.
Beyond the repayment schedule, the protections must suit the transaction: securities, guarantors, charges, a cautionary note or another mechanism. A detailed agreement also regulates late payment, early repayment and changes in circumstances in advance.
Key matters covered
- 01Defining the loan amount and how the funds will be transferred
- 02Setting repayment dates, linkage or interest, where agreed
- 03Tailoring securities and protections for lender and borrower
- 04Regulating early repayment and changes to the payment schedule
- 05Setting a mechanism for delay or breach of the agreement
- 06Documenting signatures, transfers and supporting documents
A clear agreement reduces disputes and lets each party know in advance what is expected throughout the loan period.
