A Nelson couple made an early morning dash to disable their rental property’s locks after discovering it was being sublet on TradeMe as four “mini-apartments”.
The couple were “horrified” to see the bedrooms in their house, which they had hoped would be rented to a family, listed as containing kitchenettes with a jug, mini-oven and hob.

Joe Waller and his wife Kay Pastorius-Waller said they signed a management agreement regarding their property with Black in April.
