Home buyer problem...sellers agreed to fix something but wasn’t fixed right who’s responsible?????

Bought home and sellers agreed to paying my closing cost and fixing a inground pool. Signed contract at closing saying it would be fixed. The sellers had already hired a guy of their choice before closing to start fixing the pool they paid him half the money upfront. I got the home and they finished the pool. Nobody ever contacted me about seeing if it was completed or not. Well they fixed the pool and the pool guy told me once I had it filled all the way up with water to call him and he or someone that works for him would come check and make sure everything is good. I filled the pool up and started calling him and he never would call me back or anything well 2 weeks go by and I’ve lost a 2 feet of water in my pool and I thought it was leak somewhere started contacting my realtor when I had waited long enough for him to answer. My realtor contacted the sellers and they both tried getting up with the pool guy and never could.. sell a month and half later of this going on I hire my own pool company to come inspect the pool and see what’s wrong with it and they found out that the pool liner had been incorrectly installed by them and was leaking at the main drain and they were pretty firm with me in saying whoever put the liner in knew they messed it up when they did it and that’s why I never heard nothing back from them ...2 different opinions on this both matching what they said and 2 different quotes.. is the seller still responsible for having the pool fixed since they hired the guy to do it and he didn’t fix it right and they agreed to have it fixed and payed him?????

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear...
