Heath's Pad Already Being Shopped
Just two weeks after Heath Ledger's body was found lifeless in a SoHo apartment, that apartment is already on the market again -- for $25,000 per month.
"You don't wait around in a hot rental market like this," said one broker to the New York Post. "As ghoulish as it sounds, people will rent that place in a heartbeat, especially when the vacancy rate is below 1 percent." The loft at 421 Broome Street had been rented by the late actor since last September for $22,000/month.
Just yesterday, the medical examiner ruled that Ledger died of an accidental overdose of prescription drugs.
