Hello there!
Well, I can't see what harm coming over for a visit to assess things would do. Why would that be risky? If you mean coming over on a visitors visa and hoping to stay then yes, of course that would be risky, but a visit is a great idea. Please let me know how you are getting on. Apologies for the delay in my response. :)
