The FHA does not loan funds to borrowers, rather, it provides lending organizations with safety by offering mortgage insurance in case the borrower does not pay his or her financial obligations. The FHA and their loan programs are designed to assist low-to-moderate income consumers help meet credit requirements if they otherwise would not.
