If I was you, I'd stay in your house as long as you possibly can.
If you need some help, hire someone to help you.
I've seen much in the past 10 years of people that sold their homes to end up in a retirement community of sorts.
Many were not happy and missed their home.
They were also faced with paying rent as much as $1500 a month. Many places do not allow pets.
Many places do not allow a lot of other things you've perhaps taken for granted, like having your own space and no one telling you what you can and cannot do.
And, they can always raise the rent whenever they want (unless it is rent controlled).
If you really think you want to move, I'd look around in the area you want to move to and ask others living there if they like it.
Signed,
A home owner that paid way to much rent for 25+ years who is not going anywhere (hopefully!).
