I think its pretty amazing you found an lsv without a wake plate. Good luck hopefully you'll be a ember of the family soon!

IMO, yes it is a disadvantage for resale & performance. You can add both.

If your finding a 09 in the low 30s its a good deal
Sure, IF you're comfortable installing these items on your own. If not, call a local dealer and ask them what it will cost to install rear bags & a wake plate. I'll bet you it's more than $1k. There is a reason another member mentioned it's rare to find a LSV without a wakeplate: nobody wants one without it. So, resale value may not be impacted much, but your pool of folks that would buy it are greatly diminished.
If you can, get a price for parts and labor to get it fixed up the way you want it and use that as a negotiating tool to get a better price from the seller.

Maybe.
All we do is wakesurf & wouldn't consider a boat (any brand) w/out a wakeplate.

Ok, so let's start doing the math:
$33,000 sales price
$3,000 ballast by dealer
$500 wakeplate parts only
(although I doubt you can find a full setup - plate, actuator, control, gauge & wiring for that)
$36,500 total
That puts you range of others that came equipped like that from the factory. From a resale perspective, as a buyer, if I can tell you added stuff like a wakeplate, I value your boat less than one that had that installed at the factory. Others may think differently.
The good news is that it sounds like you have found a great boat and even if you have to spend a few $$ getting it how you want it, you won't have overpaid.
