I totally agree with this idea, repair it yourself,
if you ask them to fix it they will do it in the cheapest way possible.
right in an allowance into you sale contract and get it done right!

It is a structural defect not cosmetic, no the insurance co does not
pay for maintenance, they never did.

Get bids on all repairs yourself and the soil if you are worried about a
sink hole or bad soil. You would be better off repairing it and deduct
it from the price plus a bit extra. Then you will know the repair was
done right not just a hack job. It could be as logical as untreated
wood rotted or as complex as a sink hole . Get some pros out nobody
here can come by today.
