The FHA is the Federal Housing Administration, which is a federal organization in the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) - if your loan is an FHA-insured loan, it means it is underwritten by them. No part of the loan is provided by the FHA; what the FHA does is ensure that the mortgage is taken care of in case the borrower doesn't pay their loan. Low-income and moderate-income consumers benefit from an FHA-backed loan; the point of the Federal Housing Administration is to assist credit-worthy buyers to meet expectations and requirements for lenders that they otherwise would not. The rates on FHA loans are generally market rates, while down payment requirements are lower than for conventional loans. The loan programs that the Federal Housing Administration provides are incredibly helpful to consumers with less starting income. |
