Meet Lynna
Lynna is a powerhouse entrepreneur with over 12 years of business experience. She successfully built and led a team of 22 women, mentoring each one to grow thriving businesses of their own. Her passion for systems, leadership, and results is the heartbeat of Building Blocks' operations.
Lynna understands the emotional weight of property ownership—the 2 am worry, the stress of finding good tenants, the fear of being taken advantage of. She built Building Blocks to address not just the practical side of property management, but also the psychological side. Because managing properties isn't just about maintenance and rent collection—it's about giving owners their lives back.

Courtney brings over 20 years of plumbing and management expertise, having honed his skills in Jamaica before continuing his career in the U.S. He's dedicated to developing high-performing teams and believes in empowering every employee to grow in both skill and confidence.
His technical background enables us to catch problems early, recognize quality work when we see it, and avoid overpaying for repairs. When Courtney walks a property, he's not just checking boxes—he's protecting your investment with the eye of someone who's spent two decades in the trades and believes in getting it right the first time.
