FLORIDA PROMISSORY NOTES
A promissory note is the borrower’s written promise to repay a debt. It should clearly state the economic terms of the loan and coordinate with any mortgage, guaranty, or other collateral document.
GAF Real Estate Law drafts and reviews promissory notes for Florida private loans, seller financing, real estate investments, business transactions, and related-party loans. Important provisions may include the principal amount, interest rate, payment schedule, maturity or balloon date, late charges, default interest, grace and cure periods, prepayment rights, application of payments, attorney’s fees, and acceleration after default.
When real property secures the debt, the note is usually paired with a properly prepared and recorded mortgage. Depending on the transaction, the lender may also require a personal guaranty, assignment of rents and leases, security agreement, or entity resolution. Careful drafting helps avoid uncertainty about payment obligations and enforcement rights.
