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 insured by them. None of the funds are provided by the FHA; what the FHA does is make sure that the mortgage is secure in case the borrower doesn't pay their loan. Low-income and moderate-income homebuyers benefit from an FHA-insured loan; the point of the Federal Housing Administration is to assist credit-worthy potential buyers 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. Consumers with lesser income or less starting capital to use as a down-payment on a financial transaction are assisted the most from FHA loan programs.
