The FHA is the Federal Housing Administration, which is a federal agency in the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) - if your financial transaction is an FHA-insured loan, it means it is underwritten by them. No part of the loan is provided by the FHA; what the FHA does is make sure that the mortgage is secure in case the borrower defaults on his or her loan obligations. Low-income and moderate-income homebuyers benefit from an FHA-backed loan; the purpose of the Federal Housing Administration is to assist credit-worthy consumers to meet expectations and necessities for lending agencies that 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 offers are exceedingly useful to consumers with less starting income.
