The "Random points inside polygons" algorithm could be of some help. In the upcoming (?) "Random points in polygons" algorithm (https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/35745), it is possible to "data define" the number of points for each polygon, so when / if that algorithm becomes available, you just need to make sure that you have an attribute to your polygon layer that gives the count of households that are inside the polygon (can be generated from your households points using the "Join attributes by location (summary)" algorithm).
When the random points have been generated, you have to find a way to join your existing households to the generated points.
