A grime-infested property with dirt snaking up the walls has been put up for rent on one of South Auckland's busiest main streets.
That might be one of the only things going for it - with road-side panorama views of Great South Rd, in the heart of Ōtāhuhu - making for a colourful sight.
The colourful sights do not end there, however, with the listing showing off several less favourable photos of the inside of the property also.
Real estate agent Shantanu Srivastava said it appeared the listing - which is also up on Trade Me - had gone up using old photos and should have gone up as a blank listing with no photos attached.
"There's work happening inside the property (this week)," he said.
The property owner had started construction and renovations on the rental, he said, and that was all expected to finish by the end of the week.
The previous tenant had been at the property for about eight years.
On inspection of the rental, it was decided the property needed a "touch up", he said.
The owner had indicated the renovations include a new paint job and carpet cleaning.
Srivastava said the current listing had only been up for about three or four days and he would now be checking to see how old photos were used.
Those interested in the property could expect to see new photos attached "in a week or so", he said.
