I think I would go with what flu said,
You have a primary so take the tax free money now (expensive homes don’t usually pencil out well as rentals anyway)
Put some of it in a 2/2 condo or even a smaller 3/2 rental grade home a little further away.
buy some silver etc..
I really in good conscience cannot recommend stocks to anyone I used to own kmart stock (hey they have assets don’t they LOL).
