Can I discount repairs in advance when selling a house?

I figure the buyer's inspection will find a bunch of stuff that needs work, and that the buyer will want to take that off the price of the house. Is it possible for me to take it off in the advertised price, to get more offers sooner? But not have to deal with buyers trying to double dip, taking the discount a 2nd time, after their inspection? If I simply sell it "as is" for the discounted price, will that cause a problem with the seller's mortgage company?
