A loan agreement is a written agreement between a lender that lends money to a borrower in exchange for repayment plus interest. The borrower will be required to pay back the loan in ance with a payment schedule (unless there is a balloon payment).

The IRS mandates that any loan between family members be made with a signed written agreement, a fixed repayment schedule, and a minimum interest rate.

Depending on the loan, a promissory note, deed of trust, security agreement, agreement to provide insurance, and UCC financing statement may be generated during the loan process. Many banks and credit unions utilize document preparation software to generate these types of documents.
