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 insured by them. The FHA does not loan funds to borrowers, rather, it provides lending organizations with security through mortgage insurance in case the borrower does not pay his or her loan obligations. Low-income and moderate-income consumers benefit from an FHA-insured loan; the purpose of the Federal Housing Administration is to aid credit-worthy consumers to meet expectations and qualifications for lending organizations 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 provides are excessively helpful to purchasers with less starting capital.
