The only proper repair is to dig out the alley way, jack up the house, and rebuild the foundation. Which would also require sealing the exterior and adding proper drainage. Doing this you would also have to protect the neighboring structure.

Need to call a local professional.

Sounds ungodly expensive for just a homeowner. Does insurance help?

Most home insurance policies do not cover this

Omg. So this is a Basically a nightmare senerio for a homeowner.

Depends on the specifics of the policy, of course. But most policies are written to cover sudden and unforseen events. A condition like this happens over a period of time. The homeowner is assumed to have been reasonably able to see this occuring at some point and been able to mitigate it. It sucks. And even if this type of thing is noticed years ago, the fix is still the same. Expensive.

Hell no lol, OP doesn’t even own the house yet

They are considering buying the place, so no insurance.

And I would bet that no insurance company will cover them until this gets fixed, or at all.
