For the first part, こした is the past tense / completed aspect of the verb 越【こ】す. In your sample text, this is part of a set construction: ~[する]に越【こ】したことはない.
Some dictionary entries:
- Weblio monolingual Japanese
- Weblio E↔J
- Eijiro
For the second part, yes, まあ basically means "well,..." and いいや parses out as basically "I guess it's good". As a whole, "well, yeah, okay then..."
