LEDGER APARTMENT BACK UP FOR RENT
The apartment HEATH LEDGER died in has been put back on New York’s rental market.
Three weeks after the actor was found dead in his bed after accidentally overdosing on prescription drugs, the Broome Street, Soho pad he had rented since September (07) is being offered to New Yorkers with deep pockets.
The vast apartment is 10 times the size of many Manhattan homes, with 4,400 square feet of floor space; three bedrooms; two and a half bathrooms; an office; laundry room; kitchen and balcony.
Ledger was paying a reported $24,000 (£12,000) a month in rent - so prospective new renters will need to be high earners.
But real estate agents are confident it will be snapped up soon. One broker tells the New York Post, "You don’t wait around in a hot rental market like this. As ghoulish as it sounds, people will rent that place in a heartbeat, especially when the vacancy rate is below one per cent."
