Matt Waggoner leads the market-leading tenant representation team for the Indianapolis office of JLL. Matt’s specific focus is helping companies maximize the value of their real estate through developing and executing a people-focused real estate strategy. His team has worked on some of the largest, most complex, award-winning transactions in the State of Indiana over the last decade, with some of the state’s largest employers. Matt is highly passionate and convicted about the impact that office space creates for an organization and their people.
Matt also serves a variety of multi-market clients by functioning as their “in-house” real estate department, handling all facets of their real estate needs. Matt has quickly emerged as a leader within industry circles and has been tapped for participation in key relevant organizations, including speaking engagements with BOMA, NAIOP, Bisnow and ULI.
When he is not helping companies find and create incredible office spaces, Matt can be found on a road bike, creating a culinary experience in the kitchen, or engaged in his local community with his wife, three kids and boxer (dog).
