How to stop water ingress under house through external brick wall?
The external wall is single brick, I am getting water coming through the brickwork to crawl space under house when it rains .
I can get to both positive and negative sides of the water transfer.
Is there a suitable product to seal the wall on the outside or inside.
the upper part of external wall is rendered. So I think water ingress is through bottom where wall is not rendered and is covered by soil.
appreciate your suggestions
thanks.

The fine crack is making the wall wet on the other side. But nothing like water pooling.
There was 17 mm rain on Monday. All good except this minor crack issue

Thanks a lot @MitchellMc.
I will start with sika and see how it goes with few rainy days. Then go with the paint.
