An FHA loan is backed 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 loan funds to borrowers, rather, it provides lenders with safety through mortgage insurance in case the borrower defaults on his or her loan obligations. Low-income and moderate-income homebuyers benefit from an FHA-insured loan; the purpose of the Federal Housing Administration is to assist credit-worthy buyers to meet expectations and requirements for lenders that they otherwise would not.

The rates on FHA loans are generally market rates, while down payment requirements are lower than for conventional loans. Purchasers with lesser income or less starting funds to use as a down-payment on a loan are assisted the most from Federal Housing Administration loan programs.
