Reducing your monthly burn rate will lower that return threshold all that much faster.My clients who are successful always had goals whether monetary or not (like adding team members) and simply took action upon certain metrics.

@Joseph Cacciapaglia other that the reduced buyer pool do you have experience whether it's a good long term strategy?

If there is an agent involved I would see if the agent would first reduce their feesIf not, have you considered paying any of the fees?

Because of the length market time you had to reduce the price.  

But it sounds like there isn’t much more lending advantage to an LLC (besides reducing liability). 

Offer him a reduced payment, like maybe 50% of his labor, and see if he'll take it.

Some folks live in 30/40% of their take home and invest the rest -- risky, sure, but if that pays off they might be able to retire early.I think a good way to be able to see if you can retire early is to reduce your expenses as much as possible.

I think more than reducing the price allowing pets would get someone in faster.

Lenders want to drastically reduce their exposure in this market.

I am considering selling a rental to have cash on hand to buy back in at reduced prices.
