Just sayin'
To clarify - I am not thinking about buying a house that has had sinkhole or catastrophic repair work done.

Due to all of the recent sinkhole activity (probably due to severe drought & recent heavy rains), it occurred to me, that perhaps a home that has been stabalized, may even be safer than one that has not. I wanted list members thoughts & opinions on this. I would imagine that there are homes in TV, that have had corrective repair work done, and felt this could be an interesting topic of discussion.

It surprises me that more members have opinions on a west facing lanai's than on this issue. One just never knows when the worm will turn.
