Hello

I just bought several competitor sites with higher PR. They were competitors in content however my monetization was different(value added services -VAS).
My site was ranking well for Croatia but other sites are good in Serbia and Bosnia where I'm currently expanding.
I was planning to establish a network of sites with similar topics but I'm not sure how G will look on that because part of content will be overlapping.
For ex. three sites will be with topics A,B and C and other would include all of those. However sites A,B and C would have different VAS. I'm also planning to move everything on one server. How safe is to redirect some of the sites permanently?
I would appreciate any thoughts
