Frequently Asked Questions

Is a promissory note legally enforceable?

Yes, a signed note is a real debt obligation. If payments are missed, the lender may pursue collection under state law.

What interest rate can I charge?

You can agree on a rate, but each state caps the maximum. Keep it at or below that limit.

Do I need a witness?

Not always, but signatures from both parties are essential, and a witness or notary adds proof.
