Norma Ann Halstead
Real Estate Agent (Salesperson)
Lodi - CA

Norma has deep roots in the Lodi and Stockton area, having grown up there and attended local schools, including Davis Elementary, Morada Middle School, and Tokay High School. Following high school, [he/she/they] pursued further education at Delta College and Heald Business College, earning a certificate in accounting.

Norma has held various positions throughout [his/her/their] career, ranging from roles in packing sheds and fast food establishments to positions at Grand Auto, Cost Plus Imports, and Fry Incorporated. In 1995, [he/she/they] began a significant chapter in [his/her/their] professional life by joining the Stockton Police Department as a Dispatcher. After ten months in a temporary role, [he/she/they] was offered a full-time position. In late 2006, [he/she/they] married Brian Halstead, a Sergeant at the department. Together, they ventured into real estate investment, acquiring duplexes and a single-family home in San Antonio, Texas, which holds sentimental value as [his/her/their] family’s hometown. This experience exposed Norma to a range of real estate professionals, reinforcing [his/her/their] appreciation for dedicated agents.

After Brian's retirement in 2009 and Norma's departure from the Police Department in 2011, both explored different career paths. In 2015, they obtained their real estate licenses, inspired by the exemplary agents they had encountered during their investment journey. This led to the formation of The Halstead Team, which has since expanded to include five agents, with Lacey Cordero managing daily operations.
