I am not a tax-y person but I don't think this should make a difference on your taxes either way. My interpretation is that the IRS only cares about a home sale if 1. You made more than $250k on the sale or 2. The property was an income property.
I work for a CPA firm and prepare taxes. No, this wouldn't be a sale, so you're fine. Also, atarianna is correct - the only time the IRS cares on sales of personal residences is if you have a gain of $250K or more.
