Community-focused bank provides a century of service to East Tennessee

In 1924, a handful of local businessmen founded Home Federal Bank with one goal in mind: Create more homeowners. Their belief was that homeowners stabilized and improved the community. In other words - they had a stake in the future of Knoxville. For over 100 years East Tennessee and Home Federal have grown together. And while Home Federal has grown from a relatively tiny $500,000 in assets to a bank boasting almost $3.5 billion, they have never outgrown East Tennessee.
