Deal With Foundation Issues

I'm looking at a potential BRRRR for a duplex in a fantastic area. It's priced right and there is some room to build in a repair budget.

My agent sent me the following broker remarks when he was taking a look at the property:

*** AS-IS SELLER TO DO NO REPAIRS! *** Inspection shows some settlement of foundation block in a couple areas and a split floor joist _ Still Sold AS-IS *** HIGHEST AND BEST OFFER DUE BY 5:00 P.M. FRIDAY 11/26/2021!!!

I've done some rehabs and a BRRRR before, but I've not had much experience with foundation repairs. I know they can be costly. Based on the description, can anyone give me an indication of the severity of these repairs and how much it might cost to fix?

Really tough to gauge. Would need photos, videos etc. Worst case the wall needs rebuilt and joists replaced. Do you have a go to GC to ask or a local contact? Better to ask someone local than on here
