The foundation wall is indeed double wall brick. That we can see at
the openings to the crawl space. <br>

Can you clarify the “brick” foundation? Is it really just
mortared brick (supposedly the same as the veneer)? <br>
If so, it is likely unreinforced, and is most likely your
weakest point. <br>
I assumed you’d meant CMU’s (which may or may not be
reinforced..) <br>
