An FHA loan is backed by the Federal Housing Administration, a federal organization that is a part of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). None of the money in the loan is provided by the FHA; what the FHA does is make sure that the loan is paid for in case the borrower defaults on his or her loan obligations. Low-income and moderate-income homebuyers benefit from an FHA-secured financial transaction; the purpose of the Federal Housing Administration is to help credit-worthy buyers to meet expectations and requirements 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 Federal Housing Administration provides are extremely helpful to consumers with less starting capital.
