What is an FHA-insured loan?

An FHA-insured loan is a mortgage backed by FHA mortgage insurance. FHA mortgage insurance helps lenders hedge against the risk of a loan default. This encourages lenders to lend to borrowers that they might ordinarily see as too risky. Examples of FHA-insured loans include HUD 232 and HUD 232/223(f) loans.

The benefits of an FHA-insured loan include lower down payments, lower closing costs, and more lenient credit requirements. FHA-insured loans also offer more flexibility in terms of loan amounts and repayment terms.
