You have lots of concepts mixed up, but a promissory note may be enforcable regardless of whether it has collateral ( usually in the form of a deed of trust recorded with the county recorder) or a personal guarantee. It would be necessary to see the relevant documents to provide more specific advice.

I've never heard of a "notice of interest" being required to make a promissory note valid. I suggest having an attorney review the documents you mention to get thorough legal opinion.
