An FHA loan is underwritten by the Federal Housing Administration, a federal agency within the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The lending organization takes care of all the finances; the FHA simply secures the transaction by providing mortgage insurance in case the borrower does not pay off his or her loan. Low-income and moderate-income consumers benefit from an FHA-insured financial transaction; the purpose of the Federal Housing Administration is to assist credit-worthy buyers to meet expectations and qualifications for lenders that they otherwise would not. Down payments are often lower with an FHA loan despite using conventional market rates. Purchasers with lesser income or less starting money to put down on a loan are helped the most from Federal Housing Administration loan programs.  |
