The FHA is the Federal Housing Administration, which is a federal organization in the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) - if your financial transaction is an FHA-insured loan, it means it is secured by them. None of the funds are provided by the FHA; what the FHA does is make sure that the mortgage is paid for in case the borrower defaults on his or her loan obligations. Accessible to all buyers, FHA loan programs are built to aid credit-worthy low-income and moderate-income families who do not have the qualifications for conventional loans.

The rates on FHA loans are generally market rates, while down payment requirements are lower than for conventional loans. Those with lesser income or less starting money to use as a down-payment on a loan are assisted the most from Federal Housing Administration loan programs.
