Would you purchase a property in an area you are not 100% comfortable in, simply because it was a good price? Or stay away? Thanks in advance for your input. Newbie Alert

Impossible to add any clarity without more detail.
You could be buying a 10 million property and net worth is 8 million and maxing out a purchase which could have a higher overall risk factor versus someone with a 50 million net worth and a balanced portfolio.
@Daniel Alter I think this question depends a lot on each person's different strategy when it comes to real estate. When I think about my market and areas that I am not comfortable with, I just stay away all together. I generally look for buy and holds and, I personally do not want the added headaches that come along with investing in these certain areas.

you'll never be 100% comfortable, decide whether you need to be 90% confident and go from there.
