Lyal,
No, I’ve got the note covered, part Bronchick, part Lonnie. I’ve read in the archives about a Security Agreement and think I may need one. Especially for this one, it’s not a typical Lonnie Deal. It’s being sold for $19.5k and would like more security in the owner financing.

Having a hard time coming up with wording for a security agreement. I seem to alot of default stuff in the Note and wonder if a Security Agreement is even necessary. Maybe it is, I don’t have a strong sense that the recourse (payment in full, repossession) is being put across.

Some locations do prefer a separate security agreement. I used one with my Lonnie deals.
The best place to find a proven example of a personal property security agreement that has been tried and proven in your local courts is to take a look at your car loan. If you don’t have a car loan, then ask your bank for a copy of the promissory note and security agreement they use on theirs. Their lawyers have adapted the wording to your state and location. This paperwork is probably copyright material so do not simply cut and paste.

Thanks Steve,
Not a LD only in cost to repair ($5500) and selling price ($19500). Other wise pretty much the same. So it is your understanding that you use a SA when selling the note and not for selling the home via OF? Since I am doing both, guess I still need to find one.
