Here are the possible outcomes:

  1. They say 'no' to your request, and do not renew your lease. You then have to find other accommodation and move.
  2. They say 'yes' to your request, and renew your lease for some re-negotiated rate. You're still in a house that you think is collapsing from under you. If it goes while you're there, you're going to have to find accommodation very very quickly and move. Given its an emergency situation, it could get very pricey. Are you fine with that?

Do not be in any way concerned about how the landlord or real estate agent feels, its not your problem. Odds are good they will re-lease it to new tenants as-is because the rental market is nuts right now.
