What is max legal interest on a consumer personal loan of $68000.00 for one year? (Texas)
Hi Hannah,

As per the usury laws in California, the lender are allowed to charge a maximum of 10% interest rate on a loan used for personal, family and household purposes. So, I believe a 7% interest rate on a second loan is within the maximum limit allowed under the usury laws.

Hi Guest!

Welcome to forums!

Do you have any written agreement regarding the loan? If yes, then the terms and conditions mentioned in the loan docs will be followed when the lender i.e. your friend recovers the loan. If an interest rate is mentioned in the loan agreement, then you'll have to pay it.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.
