Brian Hodge is the first Regional Sales Manager at HomeTrust focused on financing transportation equipment.

Brian aims to understand each business to make the financing process simple and help his clients grow. He works with a variety of small to middle market-sized clients in the transportation, agriculture, construction, and manufacturing industries and primarily focuses on the Piedmont Triad region and Greater Southeast.

Brian previously worked at Xtra Lease, GE Capital, and Wells Fargo Equipment Finance. In 2018, he joined HomeTrust, which he believes offers flexible repayment and end-of-lease options to clients.

During a career spanning more than two decades, Brian has financed semi-trucks, trailers, forklifts, cotton strippers, tractors, and more. Some of his recent transactions include a $2.3MM loan for 12 new Peterbilt tractors for a trucking company; a $225K loan for three new delivery vehicles; and a $1.0MM loan for a new Diamond Z Grinder for a mulching operation.

Brian grew up in Medina, Tennessee, where his grandfather worked as a farmer, drove a tractor, and delivered produce. He subsequently studied Logistics and Transportation, earning a Bachelor in Business Administration at the University of Tennessee and an MBA at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.

Brian enjoys hunting for duck, quail, and pheasants and being outdoors.

He and his wife live in Winston-Salem, North Carolina and have two daughters, both of whom follow in their parents’ footsteps as Tennessee Vol fans.
