If your house loan is FHA certified, that means that it has been guaranteed by the FHA, which is part of the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The FHA does not loan money to borrowers, rather, it provides lending organizations with protection with mortgage insurance in case the borrower defaults on his or her financial obligations. Low-income and moderate-income consumers benefit from an FHA-secured loan; the point of the Federal Housing Administration is to cooperate with credit-worthy buyers to meet expectations and qualifications for lending organizations that 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. FHA loan programs are particularly beneficial to those purchasers with less accumulated cash.
