Michael Flynn, President Trump's former national security adviser, has put his Virginia home on the market to help pay his mounting legal bills after pleading guilty to lying to FBI agents about his Russia contacts, according to a report Tuesday.

Flynn, who was fired from the White House last February, put his 13-year-old, three-bedroom home in Old Town Alexandria on the market in December with an asking price of $895,000, his brother Joe Flynn told ABC News.

He has since lowered the price to $834,995, according to realtor.com.

The retired Army general bought the house three years ago for $774,000.

Flynn moved to his hometown of Middletown, RI, last July to evade the spotlight of the Russia investigation.

He pleaded guilty to lying to FBI agents and is cooperating with special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election and whether Trump campaign officials colluded.

"I'm not going to sugarcoat it, this has been a trying experience" for Flynn and his wife, Lori, his brother told ABC News. "It has been a crucible and it's not over."

Joe Flynn said he and other family members created a defense fund for his brother.

He wouldn't say how much has been raised, but said none of the donations came from foreign nationals or from Trump. ​

​Flynn's lawyer declined comment Monday, ABC News said.​

Flynn was fired from his White House post after reports revealed he had met with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak during the campaign and misled members of the administration about it.
