The requirement is that he should have purchased a residential house within 1 year before or 2 years after the date of transfer or constructed a residential house within 3 years after the date of transfer. There is no requirement that residential house should be used only for residential purpose. So 2nd option would be better. He can also invest in REC bonds u/s 54EC
