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 financial transaction is an FHA loan, it means it is insured by them. The FHA does not provide funds to borrowers, rather, it provides lending organizations with security with mortgage insurance in case the borrower defaults on his or her loan obligations. The FHA and their loan programs are created 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. The loan programs that the FHA provides are excessively beneficial to buyers with less starting income. |
