I a guessing that you bought a home 'as is', and your lender is requiring certain repair be completed before closing. If you fail to somehow arrange that these repairs be completed (no matter who pays for such), your loan will be denied. I will AGAIN assume that the seller was not agreeable to perform any repairs. That being the case, you need to have all those repairs completed if you expect to close the purchase.
As an aside, any agreement to purchase where YOU must complete repairs before closing is NOT a good contract. Not sure how you got into this, but it ain't pretty.
