Negotiating repairs after home inspection

Hey all,

I’ve finally gotten into contract on a single family home as my first investment property. Great little house with a good price. I had to pay asking but it seemed to be under market for the area.

Now the inspection has come back. Theres obviously repairs that need to be done.

I’m thinking of asking for fair market credit towards the purchase as no one that’s selling a property will probably pay a good professional to do it right. So I’m wondering with a 77,500$ purchase price is it too much to say because of this list of issues- (not super extensive but still enough) I would like a 7000$ credit towards purchase/ closing.

What do you all think?
