Like...WUT?! I don't think these are legal in the USA. I always wonder why exterior of foundations aren't insulated with styrofoam. Poured concrete rebar foundations run about 100 years. Really interesting.
They exist in the USA, but being from the Boston area, I've never seen one. Seems like something that would have some advantages, but would be a lot easier to do wrong than right.
Home inspectors are useless. Go through the house with a proper contactor. We have preserved wood foundation, got it for a decent discount. But may be some issues, but hard to tell as everything is hidden behind the walls.
