Run run run away. Sounds like a BS answer. The inspector would have found water in the attic because your insulation is there and it would be damped or discolored from water coming in. Soffit would be wet/discolored on the outside too where the water is supposedly coming in. The inspectors I used would have found that easily.
I would run to another villa for sale or you can make up another addendum that has the seller find out exactly what’s going on, pulling up the carpet and inspecting the concrete pad for cracks if need to, and I would be there when this was going on.
If the water is coming thru the floor, you got other problems. How about a hole being created by all the water, will you have other leaks/cracks/pad settling issues down the road.
If it’s a problem with water coming in thru the soffit, then down the wall, you got to pull the drywall out and replace the insulation and dry everything out before you get mold, then you have a bigger issue.
There are probably a hundred other villas for sale in the villages, I’d look at these
