This Basement Floods Ankle Deep - Pic

[Account Closed]

Just saw this basement over the weekend on a rental we visited. Since the owner is a few hours away, the tenant let us walk the property. 90 year old house with everything wrong except location and lot. Water damage, mold, old systems, leaky roof, rot, odor (humans and pets), old windows, filthy, etc. 

This is a portion of the basement, see how the water (ankle deep, tenant says every time it rains) has eroded the bricks and water stains on the blocks, like a mini water fall? Mold, mildew and other organic growth. Sump does not work or not enough to handle the amount of water. See how a stack a bricks "supports" the overhead pipe? 

I am not an expert in anything at all, but this definitely doesn't seem, feel nor smell right. No sewage smell, but wet, moldy smell. 

Mold needs to be remediated, but this water source needs to be taken care.

Anyone seen this before and how have you addressed the water? Thanks, all!
