If your financial transaction is FHA insured, that means that the loan has been guaranteed by the FHA, which is part of the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The lending organization takes care of all the money in the loan; the FHA simply insures the transaction by providing mortgage insurance in case the borrower does not pay off his or her loan. Accessible to all purchasers, FHA loan programs are made to help credit-worthy low-income and moderate-income families who do not have the qualifications for conventional loans.

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