A Kentucky Promissory Note and Security Agreement is a legally binding document used in the sale of an automobile from one individual to another. This agreement outlines the terms and conditions of the sale, including the purchase price, payment schedule, and the terms of the security interest placed on the vehicle. In Kentucky, there are different types of Promissory Note and Security Agreement that can be used in the sale of an automobile: 1. Installment Sale Agreement: This type of agreement specifies that the purchase price of the vehicle will be paid in installments over a specified period. The agreement typically includes the down payment amount, the number of monthly payments, and the interest rate charged on the remaining balance. 2. Balloon Payment Agreement: This agreement structure allows the buyer to make smaller monthly payments for a set period with a larger final payment, commonly known as a balloon payment, due at the end of the term. The balloon payment is often used to accommodate buyers who may not have the funds to make a large down payment initially. 3. Lease-Purchase Agreement: This agreement combines elements of a lease and a purchase agreement, allowing the buyer to lease the vehicle for a specified duration with an option to purchase it at the end of the lease term. The terms of the lease, as well as the purchase price and conditions, are included in this agreement. Regardless of the specific type of Promissory Note and Security Agreement used, it is essential to include several key elements in the document. These include the identification details of the buyer and seller, a detailed description of the vehicle being sold (including its make, model, year, and identification number), the purchase price, the payment schedule, any applicable interest rates or fees, and the terms and conditions surrounding the security interest on the vehicle. It is important to consult with a legal professional to ensure that the Promissory Note and Security Agreement comply with Kentucky law and protect the rights and interests of both the buyer and the seller.
