I like it here so I'll take the risk.

Perhaps it can be fixed but who of us would buy it? In my hometown our school succumbed to a sinkhole and the "experts" said it was safe to build a new school on the site. It too had to be demolished.
Needless to say lawyers made a lot of money from the disaster.
If these homes are declared uninhabitable their insurance should cover the enormous expenses in filling up the sinkhole. Its a tragedy and our prayers are with the owners and the neighborhood.
