I'm only a packager since about 1.5 weeks or so, so I'm still in the
process of getting used to fedpkg.

Currently I use a mix of fedpkg and rpmbuild (which I probably will keep
for now, as it's kinda convenient).

On my system the dist-git lives in ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES.packagename, and
SOURCES link to SOURCES.currentpackageiamworkingon. SPECS link to
SOURCES.

Although I have to re-symlink SOURCES everytime I work on a different
package I can use all of rpmbuild, mock, fedpkg,… from the same source
folder.
Currently I'm only maintaining one package inside the fedora
environment, but as I usually refuse to install anything to the system
which is not tracked by the package manager I've got a few packages
for cases when I need a custom patch or I need a newer version than
available via dnf.
For that symlinks works quite well.
