Baby socks, you have time to prepare yourself for a homebirth and save up to afford a midwife, so time is on your side with that. The bleeding is a worry, but there are things you can do to help with that.

s361768, I think that there is an article on here with the stats in regards to uterine rupture. I would have thought that since your scar has been tested successfully before that there would be a slightly smaller chance this time round of it happening. I had a PPH with my 3rd birth and required a transfusion, and the odds of it happening with #4 were slightly higher, but then they were higher simply because it was my 4th baby, but it is still only a small chance of it happening at all. I'm sure that in the event of you needing to go to hospital, then surely you can negotiate the monitoring - you've already proved you can vaginally birth a baby. Are you thinking about having a hospital birth now?
