To be fair, it's customary for a president's residence to be larger to accommodate events, particularly to host donors. A lot of people pooh-pooh the process, but development takes a lot of schmoozing to get people to donate money.
Apparently he's been looking to sell it for a while now because he claims they can't afford it (which sounds like BS to me, given his salary and his housing allowance and the fact that Leslie managed to finagle money out of the college as well, but there it is). So this was not necessarily tied to his leaving.
