Did I make a good deal?

Just got my first offer accepted as a home buyer. It’s exciting but stressful. Idk if I made the right choice but I love this property.

Info: bout in a good neighborhood with decent schools. 40 min away from my job. Bout for 175k and with comps the house is worth 190k with work it needs.

How do I know if the house needs more work than I can do?

Work needed: trees cut down, paving the driveway, get on city sewer line and off septic, landscaping, patio needs to be redone, flooring needs to be taken out and laminate put in. Extra bath needs to be added, potential drainage needs to be fixed for flooding.

My plan is to fix it all over a span of a couple years. Not going to try and redo everything at once.

Did I make a good decision?

Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
