How the hell am I supposed to “sell high, buy low” when it comes to real estate?

I was recently given this advice. Just sell your house now because the market is going to cool down. Then in a year or two when the market is low, buy a house on the cheap. Pocket the difference as profit! And that's all fine in theory, but where am I supposed to live during that in-between year? I don't want to just rent a place for a year while I'm hoping the market falls. This kind of advice feels like so much bullshit.
