Sometimes the best option is to do nothing.
Why incur all the transaction costs, including spending your own time, churning properties and moving across the country? And all on a feared economic scenario that may or may not materialize. You will make the realtors and movers happy, but at great cost and personal disruption.
And there is something contradictory about selling properties because they have gone up a lot and buying elsewhere in hopes those properties will also go up a lot. Rampant inflation in values, if that is in our future, will push up all areas, albeit at different rates.
I’d be wary of big life changes based on economic forecasts. I’ve been right as well as wrong many times in the past. Right now I don’t know if we are in for serious inflation (which I’ve been wrong in predicting), or deflation (look at the price of gold). I’d suggest you stay put, build your liquidity, and be prepared for any eventuality.
