I was thinking move of helical bars and resin to just reinforce! I just can fit my house key in a couple of places! Also this is the other side of the rsj and the crack pretty much goes straight down, the old bricks are made of the old coal deposits, which are not very strong! Its a cavity wall im assuming by i would have thought there would be movement boths sides, the other side is the old woodchip wall paper. Theres no creasing or anything. Also on the external wall with the straight crack theres nothing in the render. Thats why I thinking its more to do with the load above causing the cracks

This wall is attached to the house with no other cracks the other side, this is all part of the original house. The house is relatively cheap and we are now at the point of exchanging contracts! All that is above where the crack is, a balcony.

I did originally think this but I sent photos to a strcutual enginer, and he said with subsidence the cracks dont fade away at the top!

I can currently get building insurance, for £50 a month but thats only if there is no ongoing subsidence! I want to get structual engineer involved but its the cost I may lose if I pull out of the transaction! The original cause was root induced clay shrinkage from the shrubs in the front garden!https://imgur.com/a/6TtnVgd these are all the photos I have of the garage, the cracks do not go to the floor and the different brickwork doesnt go to the slab either, which make me think it was a repair job in the past!

Im currently buying a property that's has had previous subsidence, my level 3 survey has picked up cracks in garage which he says is likely ongoing subsidence. But im not so sure, as I think its more to do with the rsj... any help?
