Whatever you don't feel is correct, you can write the landlord and state that you disagree and why. 

You do need to tell your homeowners insurance that you are a landlord and are leasing out the other half of the property so they can write the appropriate liability coverages for you. 

If you have broker or RE attorney recommendations, please DM me or or reply.

My only recommendation is to re-read @Nathan Gesner recommendation. 

I have a question regarding the address for an LLC my wife and I just launched to serve as the property management company of our current and future homes.We are preparing to rent our current home to our first tenant and move into a new home.

I saw a need on both the seller's end and the list agents end and went right to my RE agent contacts and let them know they can offer upgrades and repairs to would be sellers to help them win more listing agreements and then we move in and do what is necessary to obtain top sell prices for the seller/list agent.

I was excited because the basement needed an egress window and I was viewing it as a potential additional room and house hack and future rental possibility. 

I had a few issues: many providers did not have umbrella for CA residents, some providers did not cover CA RE, one (my existing) did not cover CA vehicles, some only would provide coverage if they had the standard property insurance (I did not want to change all my insurance), virtually all (including the one I went with) would not cover me at the coverage I desired (I was looking for $10m policy). 

What I explained to my wife is the work we are putting it now on these properties isn't for today, it is for the future.

If the seller will entertain it you write it into your offer - what you're willing to pay total, loan term, interest rate, down payment.
