Basement wall has 2" deflection

I'm under contract to purchase a home in the Denver area. The basement has a few cracks, nothing that covers the full width/length of the basement walls but there is a noticeable deflection (about 2") on the East wall. I received an engineers report on it which said anchors should suffice. I'm not currently in Denver and I'm trying to get rough estimates on repairs. Has anyone experienced this and how much did it cost? 

And if anyone out there knows, the home also needs a radon vent and a couple egress windows in the basement. Being from Texas I don't know anything about the costs associated with these and I don't want to get run through the cleaners on my first deal in the area. 

Any help is greatly appreciated.
