Subfloor Crawlspace Mold Question

My wife and I are first-time homebuyers and pretty new to all of this. Our home inspector found some old mold, moisture, and mildew stains and mentioned that some buyers will walk over this kind of thing, and that it does make the home harder to sell down the road.

The home is a 1968 brick ranch that was almost completely gut-renovated — though the inspection turned up a few surprises. The mold/moisture, electrical, and some plumbing. Since we’re paying a premium for what was essentially a flip, we were expecting it to be in near-perfect condition. The mold/moisture issue is just one of several things the inspector flagged, but the one I’m most in the dark about I feel.

Is this level of mold and moisture concern enough to walk away from the deal?​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ If most everything else is resolved?
