The Celebs rent too! And Madonna is rumoured to be selling?
Ok so some of our listeners may still rent and some celebrities do as well. I don’t really understand why they do? But they are not paying the average. Take New York Celebs….Funny man Robin Williams is paying 11% higher than the average in his four bedroom $15,000 a month in the upper west side, Nick Jonas of the Jonas Bros is forking out 53% above the average at $6900 a month for his digs and actress Meg Ryan is paying a whopping $25,000 a month which is 178% higher than the average rent in the same area! I think she needs another movie deal soon!
And very quickly, on another note If you are thinking of getting out of the rental pool, Madonna is rumored to quietly trying to unload her mansion just off Sunset Blvd in Beverly Hills for a bargain price of around 28 million dollars. Back in 2003 she purchased the home with then husband Guy Ritchie from actress Sela Ward.
