About Toni Templeman

For most of my life, my passion has centered around helping people, building relationships, and being part of the moments that matter most. After 14 years as a PE teacher and more than 25 years coaching volleyball, transitioning into real estate felt like a natural fit.

What I love most about real estate is that it’s never just about buying or selling a house — it’s about what a home means to the people living in it. A home is where life happens. It’s where memories are made, traditions begin, and people feel most comfortable being themselves. Helping families find that place is something I take seriously and genuinely love.

I’ve been a Realtor for the past 2.5 years, and most recently I joined The Vande Kamp / Woodruff Group. I first became familiar with these women while living in the same neighborhood and watched from afar as they built a strong reputation and continued to succeed. I also heard early on from friends and neighbors that their standard of service was exceptional.

That connection became more personal when I represented the buyer who purchased their personal home. Through that experience, I had the opportunity to get to know them both personally and professionally, and I saw firsthand that everything I had heard was true and more. I was truly honored when they later approached me about joining their team. It was clear that their values, professionalism, knowledge and heart for clients aligned with exactly what I wanted in a team.

I have a deep love for Tennessee and all the opportunities and lifestyle it offers families. Whether someone is moving across town, upgrading, downsizing, or relocating from another state, I love helping people discover what makes this area feel like home. I pride myself on finding the right “fit” for families, having personally experienced that journey myself when my family relocated from California in 2021.

One of the things I value most about this career is being able to walk alongside people through all seasons of life. Sometimes real estate is tied to exciting milestones like growing families, new opportunities, and fresh starts. Other times, it comes during more emotional or challenging transitions. No matter the circumstance, I want my clients to feel supported, cared for, and never alone in the process. It’s not just one of the biggest financial decisions in life — sometimes it’s also one of the most emotional.

When I’m not working with clients, I’m spending time with my husband and our two kids (and cats!), who mean everything to me and coaching volleyball. Family has always been at the center of my life, and that perspective carries into the way I work with every client — with patience, honesty, compassion, and a focus on what matters most to them.
