Would you risk it?

Im under contract on a duplex. Its located in the Colorado Front range and sits on Bentonite clay. I know the key is to keep the foundation super dry to stop heaving. Its a very good deal so im tempted to move forward on it. Im buying it "as-is".

That being said, I am concerned about these cracks throughout both units. The current tenants mentioned these cracks haven't grown in size in more that 8 years. I have a structural repair guy giving me his opinion this week.

Id love some outside perspective.
