Issues getting insurance on an old 2-family

Hello BP,

My insurance company just canceled my policy for the following reasons (owner occupied 2-family built in 1780 in CT):

1.)  There is a historical plaque on the front of the house and they say there is a possibility the house is on the national historic registry.

2.)  The boilers are >25 years old.

3.)  They are requesting a Lead-free Certificate, which I do not have

Has anyone run into these issues before?  If so, how did you navigate this with your insurance agent?  Any suggestions?

-Charlie
