The Waypoint Team

At The Waypoint Team, we believe that real estate is more than a transaction—it’s a journey. Whether you’re buying your first home, upsizing for a growing family, relocating for work, or downsizing into retirement, each step is a meaningful waypoint in life. Our mission is to guide clients through these transitions with clarity, compassion, and exceptional service.

Co-founders Matt Burhart and John Spoon bring over 55 years of combined leadership experience from a global automotive company, where they served in executive-level roles across multiple states. Together, they’ve relocated their families more than 20 times and bought or sold over 40 personal homes. These firsthand experiences provide them with deep insight into the practical and emotional aspects of moving—especially when navigating schools, communities, and major life changes.

The Waypoint Team was born from this perspective and has since grown into a five-member team of dedicated professionals who share a commitment to responsive service, strong ethics, and client success. Each member brings a unique skill set that enhances the experience we offer our clients across Middle Tennessee.
