Ad for illegal Auckland rental pulled from Trade Me after outrage
A house being advertised for rent without a working stove or cook top has been removed from Trade Me after social media outrage.
The dwelling is a three-bedroom, one-bathroom house, available for rent in Auckland’s Ellerslie at $550 per week.
“Cook top and oven is not working, tenants may need to arrange their own cooking facility or negotiate with landlord to arrange,” the ad said.
