The poster shared the advertisement in an Adelaide rental group online and has since copped heated backlash from angry house hunters who were shocked at the racist request.<\/p>\n

The landlord said they were renting out a room in their house for $280 a week excluding utilities after their child had moved out of home.<\/p>\n

The spare bedroom comes with a bed and spring mattress, a bookshelf, and a built in cupboard, however the ad stipulated that this was already being \u201cused for storage\u201d and therefore was off limits to tenants.<\/p>\n

They had also said that they preferred a \u201cquiet\u201d and \u201cnon-disturbing\u201d woman to rent the space, and that loud music and having guests over was prohibited.<\/p>\n

But the most shocking aspect of the advertisement was the landlord\u2019s preference to only have \u201cnon-ethnic\u201d renters apply, due to alleged \u201cbad experiences\u201d in the past.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith my daughter recently moving out, I have an available spare room that comes with the works,\u201d the post read.<\/p>\n

\u201cProvided is a big beautiful bed with spring mattress, wood bookshelf and built in wardrobe. However this is already being used as storage and is NOT available for use.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am a lady living alone and would prefer a female tenant who is clean, tidy, quiet and non-disturbing, meaning NO loud music and NO friends over.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would also prefer non-ethnic people as I have had problems with them in the past.\u201d<\/p>\n

They went on to say that the tenant would be able to use the kitchen, bathroom and loungeroom, with bills split between them.<\/p>\n

The post sparked controversy and was quickly inundated with comments from angry social media users, who called out the landlord\u2019s racist request.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet me guess, the landlord is a 65 year old white Australian bogan,\u201d one said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWho even thinks \u2018no ethnics\u2019 let alone post it publicly?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd people insist this country does not have a problem with racism,\u201d another commented.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo wonder the daughter moved out!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cImagine renting a room for $280 and not be able to use the cupboard or have friends over,\u201d one added.<\/p>\n
