The Home Loan Promissory Note is a crucial document in Swiss real estate financing, used when individuals or entities seek to borrow money for residential property purchase or refinancing. This document type combines elements of a promissory note with mortgage security provisions, following strict requirements under Swiss law. It's particularly important in the Swiss market where most residential properties are financed through mortgage loans. The document must be carefully structured to comply with both the Swiss Code of Obligations regarding debt instruments and the Swiss Civil Code's provisions on property rights and mortgages. It typically includes comprehensive details about the loan terms, property security, borrower obligations, and enforcement mechanisms, making it a fundamental tool in Swiss real estate transactions.
