If your house loan is FHA insured, that means that it has been secured by the FHA, which is a branch of the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The lending company takes care of all the finances; the FHA simply backs the transaction through mortgage insurance in case the borrower defaults on his or her loan. The FHA and their loan programs are designed to help low-to-moderate income purchasers 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 incredibly helpful to those homebuyers with less accumulated cash.
