Why would a replacement foundation cost $100,000 to $200,000? Houses are moved all the time here and put on new foundations, if it cost that there wouldn’t be any reason to do it. Older houses on basements routinely have basement walls replaced because the clay soil here expands and contracts, over decades eventually cracking and pushing the basement walls in below grade, requiring steel reinforcement or replacement. That’s in the range of $20,000, not $200,000.
