Advice for renter trying to save a tree.

So i am a renter who was under the impression this tree was dead at the back fence of the property. Turns out i just moved in during its dormant season. Alot of the trees on the property were severely neglected prior to me moving in last september.

I am a lover of things that grow and want to help this tree thrive. My questions are as follows:

  1. What type of tree is this?

  2. Care recomendations?

  3. Anything that should be down about the rotted topped section(pictured above)?

What ive done so far(started today):

-Mulched with a well rotted out yucca

-Began watering

-fed with a general purpose water soluble fertizer

My info is:

-Los Angeles California(inland) area(10a)

-Full sun

-Tree height 4ft stump, 10ft branches

I thank you all in advance. This is my first time posting for advice here so i tried to be as clear and concise as posisble. if you have advice on what info to provide id also appreciate that.
