Would you buy a property on a known fault line?

A wholesaler showed me an SFR that was on a known fault line in Texas. The Home looked to be in decent condition. It was built in the 60's and the only thing that seemed weird was the outside elevation compared to other homes nearby. It was raised and looked slightly sloped, not straight from the horizontal point of view. The fault seems to be active but nothing like faults in California. Would you buy a property like this to flip it?
