An FHA loan is underwritten by the Federal Housing Administration, a federal agency that is a part of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The lender 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. Applicable to all buyers, FHA loan programs are formed to assist credit-worthy low-income and moderate-income families who do not have the qualifications for conventional loans.

Down payments are often lower with an FHA loan despite using conventional market rates. Buyers with lesser income or less starting money to use as a down-payment on a loan are assisted the most from Federal Housing Administration loan programs.
