Sorry about the pics: They are all normal in my pictures file.

Thanks for all the replies.

The crack runs the entire length of the basement slab and has migrated to the left corner of the house (looking from the street). A large crack has formed and the window casement has begun to separate on the basement level.

The crack has also migrated to the right side of the house and the cinder block foundation shows cracks on the rear of the house.

Upstairs, there are cracks on the rear side of the longitudinal load bearing wall, the side facing down the hill.

The problem(s) as we see it is the slope from the breached retaining walls is 60 degree for twenty feet and then flattens out. Getting equipment in to fix thing may be problematic.

The property is what we are really interested in, the house is secondary. I just want to make sure I understand the costs associated with either fixing the house and property or scrapping and starting over. Frankly, scrapping appeals to us if we move forward.

Thanks for all the advice. I found some folks in SC qualified t take a look if the executor of the will allows me to.

Best to all!
