Very thorough. Thank you for the info. There is a large retention pond planned for the area directly behind the property that we water would be diverted to. But for whatever reason, it was not done properly.
So I guess it’s salvageable in theory, just don’t know if it worth the headache. The money would also have to right of course.

Anything is salvageable in theory. How much of your money are you willing to spend to do so? Not to mention maintaining for the life of the property.
If I could get out, I would, and let it stay someone else's problem.

Where is the lowest spot around? Where is the water intended to drain? Is there a ditch in front along the road, for example?

If you really like the house, ask for a $50K discount! So La isn't a place to be casual about water. In established neighborhoods the La flooding disclosure requirements are quite serious. In new developments you take your chances.
A few hundreds in consulting fees may let you budget a fix or put you on top of bargaining.
Good luck.
