I believe that under a standard title insurance policy, building code matters, zoning and other governmental restriction on the use of the property are excluded from coverage so unless you purchased an extended form title policy there probably is no coverage, but it never hurts to submit a claim.

I am thinking that can be offset by increasing rent periodically at the same rate.
