We were also about to put brand new LVP flooring throughout the downstairs when we noticed this issue....Recently, we had noticed the slope in our upstairs bedroom getting slightly worse, our window wouldn't close and it feels like some floorboards underneath the carpet are starting to come up so we contacted a foundation/basement company to come look at the issue.

My thought is a large concrete wall higher than it and the flume as well as additional fence, soil, tree boundary.

Basically instead of the flat bottom of a vinyl product you have a rubber waffle underneath and an interlocking zipper type connection.

I guess I could assume that since someone is pitching this to you that your property/soil is right for it...but that's a pretty big assumption. 

, permit fees, engineering fees, road costs, utilities to the front entrance, soil tests etc.         

Paid agent commission, architect fee, builder consultation and estimate, survey, soil test, HOA, property tax but the final construction cost could not be supported by that market.

Therefore I'm not too concerned with "near misses", but rather an 8.0 with the epicenter smack dab underneath our coffee table.

This is imperative, so nothing is bubbling underneath the surface. 

My main reason for having an inspection period was so I could take a closer look at things like the AC ducts/crawl space underneath because it was pouring down rain the day we saw it.

If this is an infill single family parcel in South Philly, chances are the soils are fine and is really a matter of confirming the zoning and ensuring there are no deed restrictions.
