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 backed by them. The FHA does not loan money to borrowers, rather, it provides lending organizations with protection through mortgage insurance in case the borrower defaults on his or her loan obligations. Low-income and moderate-income consumers benefit from an FHA-backed financial transaction; the purpose of the Federal Housing Administration is to aid credit-worthy consumers to meet expectations and qualifications for lending agencies 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 FHA offers are exceedingly helpful to buyers with less starting capital. |
