I've also had some offers from a company to buy the forum I manage, however we chose not to sell it due to one simple reason: we feel that the forum in not only ours but it also belongs to the users, we fear that after selling, things could change a bit/a lot and all the community could loose. Of course this is also somehow related to how your forum grew.
On the other hand we know that our community could benefit from having dedicated paid professionals to support and develop the forum/a portal, additional features, ...
So it is really up to you to decide.
