An FHA loan is secured by the Federal Housing Administration, a federal agency that is a part of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The FHA does not provide funds to borrowers, rather, it provides lending organizations with security by offering mortgage insurance in case the borrower defaults on his or her financial obligations. Low-income and moderate-income borrowers benefit from an FHA-backed financial transaction; the purpose of the Federal Housing Administration is to help credit-worthy 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. FHA loan programs are incredibly beneficial to those buyers with less available starting capital.
