If your house loan is FHA certified, that means that the loan has been guaranteed by the FHA, which is a branch of the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The FHA does not loan money to borrowers, rather, it provides lending agencies with security with mortgage insurance in case the borrower defaults on his or her loan obligations. Available to all consumers, FHA loan programs are built to assist credit-worthy low-income and moderate-income families who do not meet requirements for conventional loans.

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 extremely helpful to purchasers with less starting capital.
