How revenue bonds are paid back and secured

This section explains how the state corporation pays back money borrowed through revenue bonds for home acquisition loans. The bonds are paid from loan payments, insurance money, and reserve accounts. The corporation can promise those revenues as security, and filing a financing statement makes that promise legally binding.
