Does the house have a sump pump? In our current house, which we bought with full knowledge of the issue, there was seepage and no sump pump, and we ended up having one installed (after negotiating down the sale price a bit after the inspection.) This involved jackhammering through the unfinished basement floor around the perimeter and installing a drainage pipe, then repouring that part of the floor w. inspection/cleaning ports into the pipe, along with a sump and pump in one corner. Works like a charm now. There had been a drainage pipe but it was not working properly, probably being crushed or filled at some point by tree roots.
