I am scared as hell, but I know I can do it!

As such, if an agent or seller is unsure if the property is located in a specific hazard zone and a map is not clear enough to determine whether the property is or is not in a zone, it’s wise to simply mark “YES” on the disclosure statement when asked about that zone.Seems to me that there's significant risk on both sides:1) If the agent marks "NO" (as in the property does not fall within any of the listed hazard zones) when a "YES" would be more appropriate, the transaction could be cancelled by the buyer.2) If the agent marks "YES" when a "NO" may be more appropriate, the buyer may be needlessly scared away and the deal could collapse for no reason.Is the above correct?

Based on the above, it seems like the inspection process is both time-consuming to do manually for each of the agent's listed properties, and super-important for the agent to perform correctly from a liability standpoint:a) If the agent marks "NO" (as in the property does not fall within any of the listed hazard zones) when a "YES" would be more appropriate, the transaction could be cancelled by the buyer due to mis-representation of the property.b) If the agent marks "YES" when a "NO" may be more appropriate, the buyer may be needlessly scared away and the deal could collapse for no reason.I'd love the opinions of any real estate agents in this forum on this topic: 1) How much time do you spend on these disclosures for a single transaction, in terms of both due diligence/research/looking up records and also filling out the required disclosure forms?

It has been over a week that I submitted my conditional documents and it is still not fully approved.The lender that my LO signed me up with not only has an underwriter review but also a Quality Control review and a final investor review (So, they can sell my mortgage in the secondary market immediately)So, how likely am I to go through all of these levels of scrutiny in just 2 weeks if I don't even have the full underwriter approval yet.I am so worried that it is starting to impact my health now.

A part of me is saying if I'm too scared to take the full leap on a 9-touch direct mail campaign with a couple big lists, then I don't have what it takes to make the risks necessary to succeed in real estate or business. 

Walk - To much risk with so much deferred maintenance + the unknowns.My overall question is: Does this much-deferred maintenance scare anyone or do you feel this is just part of the deal/process for opportunities like this?

I feel I don't have any quality life with family, have experienced some health battles due to stress, and I have a micromanager of a boss.

I’m not saying this to scare you, but it’s realistic.

The numbers:3 BR/1.5 BA SFH in good neighborhood with an in-ground poolSale price: $80KEstimates renovation costs: $35KARV: $175K to $185KEssentially the owner is an older gentlemen who was working on getting the property renovated but health issues have prevented him from putting the time and work into it.

I also live in the property which I think scares people.
