These areas hold immense potential, and I believe they will contribute significantly to my real estate goals.I am eager to embrace the challenges and rewards that await me in the real estate industry.

I believe due to covid international this type of investment might be more challenging.. but more rewarding?

I think its just risk vs reward.

Your risk/reward of trying to save a few bucks isn't worth it in my mind.

It's a great business - both rewarding and challenging. 

SAVE learn then apply what you learn @Bob Stevens I get your sentiment but the tone seems a bit off putting.Seems like you’re biting off more than you’ve experienced with this deal, failure can be more rewarding that success but you can mitigate painful learning experiences by bringing the deal to an experienced real estate investor and apprenticing the deal under them.

I think if you're going to buy and live in the property for a while, you will be fine because living in K-town is a relatively unique and potentially rewarding experience.

It is super rewarding to do the work yourself, and you save a ton!
