Celebrating Women in Business: Lori Serum and Her New Venture, BLVd Development

Lori Serum, a trailblazer in Wayzata’s business community, has recently embarked on an exciting new journey with BLV Development. This woman-owned real estate company specializes in custom home construction in Wayzata and the surrounding areas, marking an inspiring milestone in Lori’s career.

Balancing a successful career as a custom home builder with her personal life, Lori emphasizes the importance of setting clear work goals and maintaining personal boundaries. Now an empty nester, she finds more time to devote to her business while cherishing moments with her husband, Gary. Lori’s thoughtful approach to time management allows her to balance a busy professional life with her love of community engagement.

Lori and Gary’s connection to Wayzata runs deep. They call their downtown condo their “cabin” and enjoy everything this charming community has to offer—from lakeside strolls to connecting with neighbors. As a long-time resident and business owner, Lori is proud to contribute to the area’s growth and vibrancy.

Inspired by her mother’s resilience and values, Lori credits her upbringing on a Southwestern Minnesota dairy farm with shaping her strong work ethic. She encourages young women to work hard, stay humble, and approach each day with the goal of making a difference.

With the launch of BLVd Development, Lori brings her passion, dedication, and love for the community to every project. To read the full story, visit the original Wayzata Life article below.
