The flat where Alexander Pacteau hid the body of Karen Buckley is to be rented out to new tenants.
Pacteau took Buckley's body back to his three bedroom flat in Dorchester Avenue in Glasgow after he murdered her in his car.
He kept her body there and tried to dispose of her remains in the bath, using caustic soda.
The flat in the Kelvindale area is now being offered at £675 per month.
It has been empty since the murder in April.
Pacteau, 21, was jailed for a minimum of 23 years earlier this month after admitting bludgeoning Buckley to death with a spanner.
Judge Lady Rae said she found it “extremely difficult to find words appropriate to describe the dreadful crime to which you pleaded guilty” as she sentenced him for murder at the High Court in Glasgow earlier this month.
She added: “To you she was a stranger who appears, tragically, to have accepted a lift in your car. Within a matter of minutes, for some inexplicable reason, you destroyed her young life.”
Last week Pacteau lodged papers at the Court of Criminal Appeal in Edinburgh in a bid to reduce his sentence.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
