Laenuvõtjateisendus

Laenuvõtjateisendus, often translated as borrower substitution or loan transfer, is a legal and financial process whereby an existing borrower is replaced by a new borrower in a loan agreement. This transfer typically requires the consent of all parties involved, including the original borrower, the new borrower, and the lender. The primary reason for a laenuvõtjateisendus is to allow a party to exit their loan obligations while enabling another party to assume them.

The process usually involves a thorough assessment of the new borrower's creditworthiness by the lender. This is to ensure that the new borrower can meet the outstanding loan obligations, including principal, interest, and any associated fees. If the new borrower is approved, a new loan agreement or an addendum to the existing one is created, legally transferring the rights and responsibilities from the original borrower to the new one.

Common scenarios for laenuvõtjateisendus include property sales, where the buyer assumes the seller's existing mortgage, or in business contexts where ownership changes necessitate the transfer of company loans. The original borrower is typically released from their obligations upon successful completion of the transfer, provided all contractual terms are met. This mechanism offers flexibility in loan management and ownership transitions.
