Im looking at a house to buy that has settling problems. Its 27 yrs old.
Ram jack guy bid 20,000. This would put the house out of price reach at this time. The damage is extensive overall. It has a basement with multiple problems. One room in basement has the concrete floor coming apart under the carpet.[uneven]There is one crack in a wall in basement floor to ceiling. Laid rock has cracks on the exterior.
Two stories above basement shows 92 cracks in ceiling and walls. I seriously doubt the house has got any worse in several years. Has me wondering if its done settling? [27 yrs old]
