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-insured loan, it means it is insured by them. None of the funds are provided by the FHA. What the FHA does is see to it that the mortgage is secure in case the borrower doesn't pay their loan. Low-income and moderate-income homebuyers benefit the most from FHA-insured loan programs. The point of the Federal Housing Administration is to help credit-worthy consumers get approved for mortgages that they otherwise would not. Remember, the FHA differs from the VA appraiser panel in that the lending agency can select the appraisal company.

Down payments are often lower with an FHA loan despite using conventional market rates. FHA loan programs are extremely beneficial to those buyers with less available funding.
