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 lending organization provides all the money in the loan; the FHA simply secures the loan through mortgage insurance in case the borrower defaults on his or her loan. Low-income and moderate-income consumers benefit from an FHA-secured loan; the point of the Federal Housing Administration is to assist credit-worthy consumers 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. Those with lower income or less starting capital to use as a down-payment on a loan benefit the most from Federal Housing Administration loan programs.
