Some questions

1) are bookkeeper and accountant the same?

2) Am I right if I say:" You can avoid the risk of obsesity when you take in less food"?

3) What is the English for "the quality of the road" in this context: "If I can change one important thing about my country, I would improve the quality of the roads, there are too much potholes on the street. " Does the sentence sound OK?

4) Does this sentence sound right:" Too many people have lost their lives as well as properties in that deluge?". I wonder if there are any word which can replace "properties" here.
