What is the name of your state? CA
I loaned approx $3,500 in 5-8 payments in 1998-99 to help a woman friend pay her rent...she was desperate and recieved the money from me quickly.
We never had a written contract, only verbal, only the check stubs remain on my part as record. She told me she would pay me back immediately, but never did. She has lost her records of amounts recieved and amounts paid back.
She has paid back only a small amount.
I have the check stubs of money loaned to her.
She has approx $25,000 equity in a home worth $125,000.
My questions:
1. What should I do to record what was loaned to her? Should I ask her to send me a letter stating such?
2. How can I recover the amount if she refuses to pay me?
3. How much interest should I charge?
4. Are there any statute of limitations of time that I must act on?
5. Can you add anything else that I should know?
