In addition to the requirements of subsection (1) of this section, the department shall notify each person seeking to acquire a home or farm under this chapter, prior to the signing of a loan agreement or contract, of the variable interest rate provisions of ORS 407.275, 407.315, 407.325 and 407.335.
