you'll get enough to move in the area/house you actually want. otherwise, it may be wise to wait and let your home get more equity.

its all timing. wiping out the debt is huge though. be sure to see how much equity you'll actually be getting. there are fees and shit tied to selling and of course more costs when buying.

another thing is will you be able to move right into a new spot or have to get an apt? that could eat into whatever money you get and jack up your down payment.

with all that, now is a good time to purchase or refi. rates just got lowered.
