I would ask your insurance agent for advice. They have seen a lot of issues with sinkhole insurance. Beware that if it is a problem when you buy the house that it will also be a problem when you try to sell the house. I used to quote homeowner's insurance and all companies have access to the data of how far the house is to a sinkhole. I've seen people try to buy houses that have had sinkholes that were remediated. They had no luck getting insurance at that time. Not sure what it is like now.
