B. L Rieke Profile

Bruce Rieke has been involved in the building industry since a very young age. A third generation Kansas native, Bruce founded B. L. Rieke and Associates in 1989 with his wife, Toni. Since then, Toni and Bruce have become the proud parents of Savannah (13) and Antone (4), and the B. L. Rieke team has completed construction on more than 900 distinctive and innovative quality homes in the Johnson County area.

Emphasizing a team approach to successful home building, Bruce stresses communication as the main component of a strong business. “Whether you’re married or building a home, if you don’t communicate within the relationship, it does not work,” Rieke stated. “If someone calls me during office hours, Monday through Friday, they’re going to get a return call quickly.”

Bruce’s dedication goes beyond his strong commitment to his business and his customers. Bruce works hard on giving back to the community in which he lives and works, and is currently the acting president of the Home Builders Association of Kansas City. He and his wife Toni are also involved in many local and national children’s organizations and special needs foundations.

B. L. Rieke and Associates have worked hard throughout the years to keep up with the growing and changing demands of the housing market, always striving to satisfy the individual needs of the modern home owner. Consistently named one of Kansas City’s “top 25 Area Homebuilders,” and winner of six Distinctive Plan and Design awards, as well as six Grand Awards for the Pick of the Parade, Bruce Rieke demonstrates just how far communication, dedication, and desire can carry a business.
