Earnest Money / Backout Question
I've got some earnest money down on a fixer upper, but I've realized there are more problems than were written down on the disclosures form. Is this grounds to back out of the deal and get the earnest money back?

That's what I was hoping--I don't want to end up with a bunch of hidden issues. Thank you for your help. I'll be contacting my agent!
