An FHA loan is secured by the Federal Housing Administration, a federal organization within the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The lending organization provides all the loaned money; the FHA simply secures the loan with mortgage insurance in case the borrower does not pay off his or her loan. Low-income and moderate-income homebuyers benefit from an FHA-backed financial transaction; the purpose of the Federal Housing Administration is to assist credit-worthy potential buyers to meet expectations and necessities 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. FHA loan programs are extremely beneficial to those buyers with less accessible funding.
