The renter also isn't assuming responsibility for keeping the property in repair. The owner assumes all the risk.

That depends on the terms of the lease.

It’s pretty standard for residential leases in the US, though.

It's pretty standard for residential leases for at least some maintenance responsibilities to be assigned to the tenant (I think that it tends to be more of them assigned this way for leases of detached single-family homes than for apartment leases.)
