It depends how high up the wall, rising damp usually affects the lower 2' 6" if its higher then that its condensation and bad ventilation may be a cavity wall problem if it is its dammed expensive to cure.
Some instances have been cured by new plastering and special paints, but that again is expensive.
Is it an inside wall or what, best thing is walk away.
Retlaw.
