Doesn't seem notable at all, is just "american's youngest landlord." Thine Antique Pen (talk) 19:31, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Any source that claims that this 14-year-old is America's youngest landlord is obviously not performing any fact checking, so cannot be considered reliable. Many new-born babies inherit property, and so are landlords. Phil Bridger (talk) 12:00, 14 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I take it you support deletion, then? Qworty (talk) 03:55, 15 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I support the principle that we can contribute to deletion discussions without putting a one-word bolded summary in front of every comment. If more people did that then AfD might become a place for collegial discussion working towards consensus, rather than the battle between opposing camps that it now is.

 * Delete this absurd piece of WP:ADVERT. So now kids are supposed to be notable because they might get a reality show?  Spare me.  It would be like saying she's notable for being named after a tree. Qworty (talk) 03:57, 15 October 2012 (UTC)

 * She's a part of the zeitgeist, and if the basic criteria is "if he or she has been the subject of multiple published secondary sources which are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject," then regardless of the disputed source raised by Phil above, consider the following rather reputable sources that cover the subject:
 * Column: Forgetting our frugal roots, USA today
 * Foreclosed Home Bought by Teen - ABC News
 * Florida teen landlord turns foreclosure crisis into opportunity - CBS Evening News --
 * I'll also add that I'm new to this and am sorry for what seems to be a miscalibration of my approach to putting articles on Wikipedia. Devdoot (talk) 00:01, 16 October 2012 (UTC)
 * All of this adds up to nothing more than WP:BLP1E. She's completely non-notable per WP guidelines. Qworty (talk) 01:48, 16 October 2012 (UTC)
 * There are two waves of news stories. First, in April, as a 14-year-old landlord. I would argue the second event that led to a second wave of coverage was purchase of a second house this month ("Florida Teen Buys Second Home, Eyes Reality Show", Good Morning America, ABC News, Oct 16 )Devdoot (talk) 20:51, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
