foundation / floors sloping

[Patrick Gallagher]

I looked at a home being sold in "as is" condition. I entered the house and while it was old, everything looked to be in good shape. But there was a very noticeable slope to the right side of the house. The description called it "minor settling". What type of costs/time am I looking at. Is this a big red flag?

We just bought a home in Nov 2014 that had foundation issues which were repaired but the cracks keep coming, doors that once opened and closed now don't, etc. it's never ending. Found out after the fact this was the third foundation repair done to the home. My advice, find out about previous repairs, if house sits on expansive soil or what type of land it sits on and if on expansive soil, pass on it because you will constantly be throwing thousands of dollars towards beam placement or adjustments. We are fixing ours up and selling ASAP!!!!
