Loan Agreement & Land Pledge Template
Secure your capital. Download a comprehensive, legally compliant agreement designed for secured lending in Cambodia.
Why a Written Agreement is Non-Negotiable
Lending capital involves risk. Without a clear paper trail, you jeopardize your financial security. A Loan Agreement with a Land Pledge provides:
Legal Standing: Creates a binding record enforceable in court.
Clarity: Clearly defines repayment schedules, interest rates, and obligations.
Security: Uses land as collateral, significantly reducing the lender's risk.
Proper documentation doesn't just protect assets; it preserves relationships by establishing clear ground rules from day one.
Critical Legal Requirement
Collateral Requires Writing. Because this agreement involves immovable property (land) as collateral, Cambodian law requires it to be in writing and signed by all parties. Verbal agreements for secured loans are legally fragile and often unenforceable.
The Rebase Legal Advantage
We don't do generic. Our templates are crafted specifically for the Cambodian legal context, ensuring enforceability and practicality.
Key provisions included:
Comprehensive party identification.
Ownership guarantees for the collateral.
Precise description of property and title documents.
Balanced rights and obligations for both Lender and Borrower.
Clear mechanisms for termination, renewal, and dispute resolution.
Anatomy of a Secured Loan
Identity Verification: Ensures all parties are legally verified to prevent fraud.
Collateral Precision: Accurate land descriptions to establish exclusive rights and prevent third-party claims.
Defined Duties: Explicit obligations to minimize non-compliance.
Exit Strategies: Clear terms for ending or extending the agreement.
Dispute Resolution: Pre-agreed methods for handling breaches and damages.
Customizable Terms
Tailor the rights and obligations to fit your specific deal, provided they do not contradict Cambodian law.
Pro Tip: Define Repayment
Be specific. Example: "Principal is due at the end of the term, with interest payments made monthly."
Pro Tip: Interest & Penalties
Put it in writing. Cambodian law requires interest rates and late fees to be explicitly stated in the contract to be enforceable.
