The FHA is the Federal Housing Administration, which is a federal agency in the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) - if your financial transaction is an FHA-secured loan, it means it is underwritten by them. None of the funds are provided by the FHA; what the FHA does is ensure that the loan is secure in case the borrower doesn't pay their loan. The FHA and their loan programs are created to benefit low-to-moderate income consumers help meet credit qualifications if they otherwise would not.

The rates on FHA loans are generally market rates, while down payment requirements are lower than for conventional loans. FHA loan programs are particularly beneficial to those consumers with less accessible starting capital.
