Sounds familiar. The house I bought during my first marraige had the same problem. I realized after we moved in that we had the only house on the block with a basement and found out why very shortly thereafter
The only permanent fix was a sump pump and a French drain.
This time of the year is especially bad. I stayed there over the weekend while visitng my kids and the pump kicks in like clockwork every 5-7 minutes.
You also want an auxiliary battery powered pump.
