    It is not uncommon, especially in a private landlord, to not offer a new lease upon the expiration of the initial lease. Essentially, you enter into a month to month lease at that point.

    As for the repairs, you have to decide what you want to do. If you feel you can't live in the house as is, then give the landlord notice of one full rental period and move out, otherwise just wait for him to finish.
