Should you own a home or just rentals?

[William Huston]

Hello All, 

Currently, all the properties I own are currently rentals while 1 is being rebuilt via insurance due to being destroyed by fire. I currently rent a room as my original plan was to move back into the fire house once its rebuilt, but its taking forever so I'm curious if I should own a primary residence at all? My stay at the current place is nearing its end and I'm unsure if it's smarter to buy another primary residence and house hack or just buy another rental with the cash I have saved up and find something else to rent.
