Sell as is or put in the work prior to listing?

TLDR- Can i subtract paint and bathroom upgrades from closing cost, or do i need to paint everything white to list and show this POS house?

Hello all, my wife and her aunt own our current home, weird situation but it is what it is, the aunt had her agent walk the home and talk about what needs to be done to list, they said we need to paint the interior to neutral colors, update master bath, and a few other tiny things. We are currently closing on a new home, just wife and I, and I really just want to walk away from the old place, are the repairs/paint/updates something that can be subtracted from asking price/closing, or is it really important to have white walls and an updated bath on a 1987 manufactured home? Current interior paint is as follows- living room= canterbury bells aka light purple/violet, kitchen and secondary bath=light butter yellow, kids room=baby blue and canterbury bells. Master bedroom=Light gray.
Its not my home to sell but my cost to pay to update/paint so I'd rather put money into the new house and forget this place ever exsisted, sorry for the rant i've been doing trim and fascia all week.

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! 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...
