been there done that wall repair gig

No doubt its old and someday may need replaced.

since your a buyer get a few estimates on replacing it, and try getting
something off on the cost of the home. the owner knows it has troubles.

big $$$ are available with a bit of negoiating

Say 3 contractors estimate 6 grand for replacement, start by asking for
that much offL)

no luck go to 50% or l;ower if need be,

you have nothing to lose and can save lots of money

The dirty secret is ALL RETAINING WALLS FAAIL EVENTUALLY!

easiet thing to do iis tear out wall taper hill a little and plant
groundcover. requires no futher work I have done that at 2 homes it
works great no hill doesnt slide!

anyhow for now use wall as bargaining point!
