Inspection questions - First time buyer

I received 4 point inspection back and there are about 10-12 repairs most of them are minor. The main one is a new water heater.

I went under contract on Friday after offering over asking with a same day deadline. The property had only been online a few hours. The listing agent said there were 6 offers after my offer was accepted and they had already received multiple offers by the time mine was accepted. Im guessing 10+ offers on the day it went live. We are using the listing agent to represent us so he is getting both sides of the deal.

What is the best way to go about negotiating repairs? We are using listing agent so he technically works for both us and the sellers

Should I ask for a credit and close and fix everything after closing . A clean 4 point inspection would definitely save me a lot on insurance but maybe I get insurance with out 4 point. Or submit the repairs after to the insurance company.

Last thing I want to do is lose the deal. My market is too hot and I got really lucky on this house.

I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. 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...
