Seems the SoHo loft where Heath Ledger died last year is simply too ghoulish to sell.
The rental listing for the $26,000-per-month pad has been pulled from the market, reports the New York Post. After Ledger accidentally overdosed there last January, the apartment was listed in the summer, but failed to attract a buyer.
A Corcoran Group source says the apartment is "temporarily off the market."

5. gee...could it be because it was listed for way over whatever the asking price SHOULD have been because they thought they could cash in on the tragedy? I don't remember the amounts, but I do remember a story about it.

6. Are you sure it's not because the country's in a freakin' recession and the real estate market has cratered?

8. I miss heath so much =[
TMZ dont blame the fact that it cant get bought on the fact that he died there.
Have you gone outside lately? The economy sucks right now for everyone.
Epic Fail, TMZ.

9. There's a recession!
The place is probably way over priced.......
A dude died in there.
I'm still surprised; however, that some of his fans havent tried to buy the place just because he lived/died there.

10. The opportunist landlord jacked up the rent because Heath died in there, and it blew up in his face. Haha, that' what you get for trying to make money off someone's tragic death!
