Yeap, not one sill plate. I actually see that quite a bit. What I had never ran into were the jacks before.

Wood tends to start sagging when it gets full of moisture. Why fix the issue when you can just jack it up.
I write those up as temporary supports and recommend they be installed in a permanant manner. If the last guy thought they should be there, then fine, now they get to make them permanant.
Then i write up the other stuff for them to fix.
I wrote it up as well. Honestly most of the moisture down there was coming from a rusted bathtub and bad shower pan. The grade slopes away from the home quite a bit.
