Should we buy a house with mold and foundation issues?

We put an offer on a house and the insepction found that there's mold upstairs and serious foundation issues. We asked the seller to give a credit for the cost of fixing these issues. They agreed to $5k, but it'll be closer to $30K to fix everything. We're wondering if these are major red flags and if we should back out of our offer.rnWe're under pressure because our current house sold and we need to be out in a little over a month.
