I don't think you can say that for sure until you know about a place to move into.

Why do you say that? The extra information would be the price of my next house, or whether I'm able to find it, etc?

Yes, you want to trade the present house for a new house and money. Saying you'll be happy with a certain sale price that's pegged to the purchase price and unrelated to the cost of a new home sounds like loss aversion and the sunk costs fallacy.
