Promissory Note Assignment and Notice of Assignment
What is this form?
The Promissory Note Assignment and Notice of Assignment is a legal document that enables the holder of a promissory note to transfer their rights to another party, known as the assignee. This form serves a dual purpose: it not only conveys these rights but also informs the maker of the note that they must direct all future payments to the assignee. Unlike other agreements, this form specifically includes a notice to the maker, ensuring that all parties are aware of the assignment and how it affects payment responsibilities.

- Payment Information: Specifics regarding the promissory note, including principal balance and interest rates.
- Notice to Maker: Confirmation that the maker of the note must now make payments to the assignee.
- Declaration of Assignment: A statement indicating that the assignment is absolute and without recourse against the assignor.
- Execution Clause: Signature lines for both the assignor and the assignee, indicating their agreement to the terms.

This form is useful in various scenarios, including when a lender decides to sell or transfer their rights to receive payments from a borrower.
