HUD HOME: HUD Home is a term loosely applied to a single family home or other type of residence that was purchased by a mortgage that is backed by the Federal Housing Administration / FHA. That term also applies to a HUD home that is now in foreclosure. Once a home backed by the FHA goes into foreclosure, it is conveyed by deed back to HUD by the lending mortgage company.
