There are some good companies that will do foundation repairs.

Her kids just had a new garage built that summer with all new concrete foundation and driveway, new glass block windows in the basement, new 7’ fencing in the rear, new fuse boxes with surge protectors built in , recent roof and a lot more I still don’t know why it sat on the market for 18 months but we picked it up for $35k.

Depending on the footprint of the house, you could possibly cut the slab and leave 12-18 inches (I'm not exactly sure what code would require) from the foundation, and pour a new foundation inside the new cut that would help you meet the required ceiling height.

Someone will need to cut into the brick/foundation, dig out a hole and install the window. 

I personally would add about another $25k on that estimate due to unforeseen issues (remediation, foundation problems, material cost/availability, etc ).

Capital expenditures like roof, plumbing, electrical, foundation, outdoor stairs, lead paint etc. etc.

There must be a solid foundation in place. 

Though I've paid off a very large portion of it, I'm starting to realize that I'm wasting valuable time that could be used to build a portfolio, build my education/ foundation, etc.
