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 loan is an FHA-secured loan, it means it is backed by them. The FHA does not loan funds to borrowers, rather, it provides lending agencies with safety with mortgage insurance in case the borrower does not pay his or her financial obligations. The FHA and their loan programs are built to aid low-to-moderate income buyers help meet credit expectations if they otherwise would not.

Typically, a buyer has to pay less of a down payment on an FHA-insured loan, while the rates remain standard market rates. The loan programs that the FHA provides are excessively helpful to consumers with less starting capital.
