be contained in a single document which must contain the entire agreement of
the parties, including any promissory notes or other evidences of indebtedness
between the parties relating to the transaction, except as otherwise provided
in NRS 97.205 , 97.235 and 598.9715 , but:
(a) If the buyers obligation to pay the total of
payments is represented by a promissory note secured by a chattel mortgage or
other security agreement, the promissory note may be a separate instrument if
the mortgage or security agreement recites the amount and terms of payment of
that note and the promissory note recites that it is secured by a mortgage or
security agreement.
(b) In a transaction involving the repair,
alteration or improvement upon or in connection with real property, the
contract may be secured by a mortgage or deed of trust on the real property
contained in a separate document. Retail sales transactions for home
improvements which are financed or insured by the Federal Housing
Administration are not subject to the provisions of this chapter.

the retail buyer and completed as to all essential provisions, except as
otherwise provided in NRS 97.205 , 97.215 and 97.235 . The printed or typed portion of the
contract, other than instructions for completion, must be in a size equal to at
least 8-point type.
3. Any fee charged to the retail buyer for
his or her cancellation of a retail installment contract within 72 hours after
its execution is prohibited unless notice of the fee is clearly set forth in
the printed or typed portion of the contract.
