(i) The debtor is a person other than an organization;
(ii) The debt is incurred primarily for a personal, family or household purpose;
(iii) Either the debt is payable in installments or a loan finance charge is made; and
(iv) The principal does not exceed seventy-five thousand dollars ($75,000.00).
(b) Repealed by Laws 1981, ch. 147, § 2.
(c) "Loan primarily secured by an interest in land" means a loan made for the purpose of purchasing or acquiring ownership of land and appurtenances, including structures affixed to the land, and which is secured by a first mortgage lien.
