If your property loan is FHA insured, that means that it has been guaranteed by the FHA, which is underneath the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The FHA does not loan money to borrowers, rather, it provides lenders with safety through mortgage insurance in case the borrower does not pay his or her loan obligations. The FHA and their loan programs are formed to assist low-to-moderate income purchasers help meet credit qualifications if 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. Consumers with lesser income or less starting funds to use as a down-payment on a mortgage are assisted the most from FHA loan programs.
