Section 2-307 - Restrictions on interest in land as security1. With respect to a supervised loan in which the annual percentage rate disclosed is greater than 18%, a lender may not contract for an interest in land as security. A security interest taken in violation of this section is void. [1973, c. 762, §1(NEW).]
2. With respect to a supervised loan in which the amount financed is $2,800 or less, a lender may not take a security interest in the principal residence of the consumer. This subsection does not apply when the lender holds a first mortgage on the residence at the time the loan is made or when the loan is made pursuant to an open-end credit plan involving a commitment to advance amounts in excess of $2,800. Notwithstanding Title 14, a judgment of foreclosure of a mortgage upon the principal residence of a consumer may not be entered on account of the consumer's failure to repay supervised loans under an open-end credit plan, unless the consumer's outstanding balance in the account at the end of the statement period has at some time exceeded $2,800 and the consumer has not paid the account in full subsequent to the date of the last periodic statement showing an outstanding balance in excess of $2,800. [2011, c. 427, Pt. D, §8(AMD).]
