Lauma Culkstena REALTOR®, ABR®, SFR®

As a licensed Realtor® in Ohio and Michigan, I am dedicated to helping clients navigate the real estate process with confidence and clarity. I hold the Accredited Buyer’s Representative (ABR®) designation and Short Sales and Foreclosure Resource (SFR®) certification, both issued by the National Association of Realtors®—credentials that reflect my commitment to specialized knowledge and exceptional client service.

Before beginning my real estate career, I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from Vidzeme University of Applied Sciences and a Master’s degree in International Economics from the University of Latvia. I am also an Enrolled Agent with the IRS and have more than 15 years of experience in tax accounting, which gives me a unique ability to bring order and insight to complex financial and real estate transactions.

Having lived in the Toledo area for over a decade, I have a deep appreciation for the community and a thorough understanding of what makes each neighborhood special—on both sides of the Ohio–Michigan border.

When I’m not assisting clients, I enjoy needlecrafts, reading, volunteering and spending time with my family.

Whether you’re buying your first home, selling your current property, or investing in real estate, I would be honored to guide you every step of the way. With the extensive resources and support of Howard Hanna, I’m confident we can achieve your real estate goals—and find the perfect place for you to call home.
