Primary residence is a personal property, so losses are never allowed.
Such kind of losses are usually addressed through the employer's relocation policy or negotiated as a taxable reimbursement or lump sum instead, often with gross-up, although these are mostly subject to a retention clause.
No loss allowed on sale of main home. See this link:
