Minnesota Promissory Note Templates

The Minnesota promissory note templates serve as written agreements that are used to outline the principal sum, interest rate, borrower/lender, repayment schedule/frequency, and other terms of a loan. Promissory notes can be secured or unsecured – with secured notes being backed by collateral pledged from the borrower. The collateral serves as security in the event of default. If the borrower defaults on the loan, the lender can take possession of the collateral. Unsecured notes are typically issued with higher interest rates due to their inherent greater risk.
