Also, a broker we are talking to said we easily qualify financially but her underwriter will require us to 1) move out of our townhome first into a temporary month to month rental, and 2) rent out our townhouse first and 3) then show the underwriter the 1-year minimum lease to satisfy them that we are not going to commit fraud and not move into the duplex. 

Not only is it shady, its mortgage fraud and a felony.

The very next house is identical to my property and is a 3 family.

For instance, consider two properties on the same block that are virtually identical but one has a carport.

In addition to the 7 federal classes, this state adds:Public Assistance (Sec. 8, welfare, SSI, TANF, etc), Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity and Expression (including transgender), Marital Status, Military or Veteran Status, Age (except 55+ communities) and AncestryYou can discriminate against non-protected classes, like illegal drug users - but if it has a disparate impact on a protected class, it still may be subject to challenge.If your unit is not de-leaded, you can still not refuse to rent to a family with kids under 6 years of age.

This is not locked out because I forgot my password it was because my identity needs to be verified.

Sounds like constructive fraud, but you probably need a legal pro to help you.If it were me, I would double check the lease and the application and look for a clause that says something like "applicant / tenant affirms that the information provided is accurate and true". 

I run the property managment as a DBA, Lovely Living Property Management, so that I can hide my identity but it's not incorporated at all.

Not to mention that not occupying a primary residence purchase is technically mortgage fraud (definitely not mortgage fraud police, but that’s what a lender would tell you).

John Sanderson , you are correct about what “notarizing a document” is for, which is why I suggested that to the OP after the very first commenter here pointed out that documents can be falsified.Someone else suggested having the prospective tenant go to the county’s tax website to verify the property owner’s identity.
