How bad is the foundation? Is the house sagging or of leaning due to crumbling of the foundation? I have no experience building in cold climate, but building and foundation are pretty the same. They are just bigger and deeper. How old is the house, two story? What kind of soil? show us some pictures. A certain part of the house can be jacked up and have the bad part of the foundation replaced without much headaches but some interior plaster work and siding on the outside.
Old foundations will have cracks. Small cracks are no big deal.
How bad is the retaining walls? What is it holding up and how close is it to the house? General rule for pricing is about 75-90 bucks per linear foot of 6' wall, depending on access. This is socal pricing, so in SC that pricing may be a tad lower?
