ABOUT
Our Story
At 616 Companies, our story is rooted in love—love for real estate, love for our community, and, most importantly, love for our family. As high school sweethearts who have grown and thrived together, we knew we wanted to build something meaningful—a business that could make a real difference in the lives of other Sioux Falls entrepreneurs and investors.
We named our company after our daughter’s birthday, June 16th, as a reminder that family and community are at the heart of everything we do. Our journey began with a shared passion for commercial real estate, and over time, we’ve combined our expertise in architecture, design, brokerage, and law to create a one-stop-shop for business owners and investors.
At 616 Companies, we believe in building more than just structures; we’re building relationships, opportunities, and legacies. We’re here to guide you every step of the way, from the first sketch to the final handshake.
WHY 616?
Behind the Name
People often ask where the '616' comes from in the name of our business. It's a very important date in our life - it's the day we became parents! On June 16th, 2023, we welcomed our first baby into the world. When she was about three months old, we realized time was going to fly by with her, and Whitney wanted to spend as much time with her as possible while she's little.
We've always had an itch to pursue the entrepreneurial life, and she was the perfect inspiration to make that happen. Thus, her entrance into the world was the perfect inspiration for the name of the business!
