So, rebuild the foundations. The houses, unless they have collapsed, should be sound enough to withstand the house being jacked up and for the foundation to be rebuilt in place of the old one.

From the article
Repairing the homes requires replacing the entire foundation at costs that typically range from $100,000 to over $200,000.

Back in the day my grandfather and I jacked up the house and repaired the foundation.
He was a boilermaker :-)
I was astounded that we could actually lift the whole house with those jacks and beams...didn’t even crack the drywall :-)

Have you seen what they are doing in London with the multi-million dollar 3 floor basements? There's a 50ish minute youtube video about it.
