Terms Used In Wisconsin Statutes 214.505

  • Contract: A legal written agreement that becomes binding when signed.
  • Interest rate: The amount paid by a borrower to a lender in exchange for the use of the lender's money for a certain period of time. Interest is paid on loans or on debt instruments, such as notes or bonds, either at regular intervals or as part of a lump sum payment when the issue matures. Source: OCC
  • Lien: A claim against real or personal property in satisfaction of a debt.

Except as provided in a loan contract, a savings bank may enter into a written agreement with a borrower to modify the terms of a loan that describe the amount, time or method of the payments, the interest rate or any other provision of the loan contract. The loan contract, security instrument and lien priority are not affected by the modification, even if the modification was not provided for in the loan contract, unless the modification increases the total amount to be loaned under the loan contract.
