maybe you could salvage the laundry room tiles by pulling up the floor
sheets and throw that in a pond, pool, stock tank, ebola fishbowl full
of water, creek, river, (etc.) and let it soak for a week or so. the
chipboard will disintegrate, leaving you the the tile and thinset or
other adhesive. they used.

Brick is sometimes porous and the house looks to be pretty low to the
ground. I also note lots of leaves. Does the eavestrough fill up with
leaves and does the rainwater then pour over onto the ground? That
might be enough to have caused your rotted sill.
Hard to tell without actually being there but the tile job by the
entry door does not look too bad. You might be able to do something
similar.
Doubtful that you can get the tiles off of the laundry room floor
intact. Unless they did a poor job of sticking them down. If they are
just on the OSB underlay and not well stuck in the quickset then it
might be done but it would be a mess. You would probably have to put
down new underlay in the laundry room too and unless you want uneven
floors between rooms, then you would likely have to remove the old
floor and replace down to the joists. More expense which probably
would not be worthwhile.
