Best Answer

For general loans to consumers that are used for personal, family our household purposes, the usury interest rate limit is ten (10) percent.

For loans to consumers that are used for home improvement or purchase, the usury interest rate limit is the HIGHER of either ten (10) percent or five (5) percent plus the amount charged by the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco on advances to member banks on the 25th day of the month prior to loan origination.

If a loan is secured by real estate or is based on a credit card, there are no limits on interest rate.
