Unless the realtor offered to waive or reduce commission, this is just a play for a listing.
The buyer that supposedly exists (needing the 5 car garage, RV pad, etc.) is out there whether or not you list the house for sale with another agent. So why would you limit the competition for your house?

Decide if you want to sell irrespective of this pitch. If you want to sell, list the house for sale on the open market. Require a lease back as a condition of sale.

If the realtor's offer contained some incentive, since they'd be getting both ends of the commission on this deal, then reevaluate. But with no shaving of commission, this benefits no one but the realtor.
