@Reggie ReardenI think what you are asking is outside the scope of standard maintenance for a tenant, unless it was specifically communicated and demonstrated to them before they occupied the home. 

Your first communication should be with the title company to ask their underwriter what they will need to insure title. 

Some books I have read thus far:  "Rich Dad Poor Dad" - Robert Kyosaki, "Build a Rental Property Empire" - Mark Ferguson, "Long Distance Real Estate Investing" -David Greene, "The Book on Rental Property Investing" - Brandon Turner

We communicated with seller agent saying we were not disclosed with this information.

Another get Rich Scheme with no money of your own.Next people are going to want free medical and free college and not have to work for it.

Not sure what the laws are in Sacramento, but I would start with a few general tips that are always helpful - keep anything you have in writing (especially your notice to vacate + any response, and any communication around the new tenant).

Either Im not communicating what I want well enough. orHe doesn't want to filter results from the MLS manually, if hes saying hes sending only based on price + area right?  

It gives the owner an opportunity to question everything and you'll be on the phone or writing emails explaining/justifying charges.If you're honest, communicate well, and educate your owners in advance, they will trust your statements.

This will hopefully be the last communication before an accepted offer.

I also read "Rich Dad, Poor Dad", "Rich Dad's Cashflow Quadrant" which was life changing and "Think and Grow Rich".
