The floor was a little "spongy."

I knew when I got in the crawlspace, there'd be something to see.

A majority of the subfloor was in bad shape. Cracked Joists, improper bracing.

The screw jacks were trying to help, but darn it the lumber was so soft in places

the jacks would just bury way up into the joists.

The buyer said replacing the subfloor was no biggie, he knew a framer.

A few clarifications with buyer on meaning of words is in order here; subfloor, biggie, framer. Buyer may be ok with it, but sure would want to be clear!

Sounds more like a statement from the buyer's agent.

Was from the Buyer... although, I see your point, would usually be from the buyer's agent. They had already left, but not before saying a few choice words to me. :-)

What happened was, I walked up and noticed that the steps to front porch were about 3" + different in height. Agent indicated that they had "seen enough BS for a day" (polite way of putting it) and left.

I can present information, buyer does what he/she wants with the information. I'm pretty sure they bought that one.
