4444, do you know if he would get capital gains tax?
If not, why not just get a credit line and use the equity? Interest rates are so low right now.
As for the realtor topic, I personally would just hire a really hot girl to be my realtor. At least then, we both have the mentality of wanting to FUCK each other.

principal residence = no capital gains
if you can make money, why not? because prices may still go up, there are qualitative factors (some of which you have mentioned)
not really much point discussing this much more, the best suggestions have been given, sell & invest conservatively, or don't sell, use HELOC, invest conservatively
what anyone else would do is irrelevant
