Any foundation pros willing to give a guess?

I can tell you that no matter which "slab expert" company you bring out, you're going to get a different solution to the issue. And that solution will probably be making someone a good commission.

Looks like Walker concrete premium

I’d hold out until you have it inspected and then reduce your offer by the repair cost plus 20%.

I know AFS is high but they have a 25yr transferable warranty, I used them on a house in Auburn that had a major slab issue and required multiple sump pumps installed… sold that house for a pretty penny too!

This^, if you've got time for the repairs to be made

Looks like a bad cold joint. Poured footings first and proceeded with the slab.

So how bad or serious?

Usually… if that was the case, it has rebar turned back into the slab. A non issue just doesn’t look the best. Some / most slab homes are poured monolithic meaning footings and slab poured all at once. Some will pour the footings and do any interior under slab plumbing and then cap it off. Hence dry concrete meets wet concrete..cold joint. Long as it was pinned with rebar, and I would bet it was, it’s no problem.

Local building codes regulate residential and commercial foundations. The standard method of pouring a foundation involves pouring footers first, and then pouring stem walls or foundation walls before pouring the floor.

I’m not an expert… but that looks just like the house I owned in Sugar Hill. It looked like that 25 years ago and still looks like that today.
