HUD (U.S.Department of Housing and Urban Development) insures Minnesota banks against loss on property improvement loans they make. You, the applicant must have a good credit history and the ability to repay the loan in regular monthly payments. HUD doesn't lend money for property improvements they insure the loans banks make.
The FHA (Federal Housing Administration) provides the mortgage insurance on loans made by FHA-approved lenders. FHA mortgage insurance provides lenders with protection against loss as a result of homeowners defaulting on their loans.
The answer is both! Congress created the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) in 1934. The FHA became part of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Office of Housing in 1965.
