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-secured loan, it means it is backed by them. The lender takes care of all the loaned money; the FHA simply insures the transaction through mortgage insurance in case the borrower defaults on his or her loan. Low-income and moderate-income consumers benefit from an FHA-backed financial transaction; the point of the Federal Housing Administration is to assist credit-worthy potential buyers to meet expectations and requirements for lending agencies 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 helpful to those purchasers with less accessible starting capital.
