My income is still low, roughly 27k gross from my business and ~10k from trading options. 

I have about 37K saved and will need to utilize a low down payment loan program.

After that you either you and your wife or would be wife can use rest of cash to buy own primary residence or do another house hack. 3) Married with children:  Buy your own primary residence, small, easily maintained property with low down payment and use as much first-time homebuyers programs out there to reduce use of personal cash.
