That would be a violation of Fair Housing laws (familial status). 

I have recently moved out of the US and working abroad as an expatriate - but now I am getting paid for my work in the local (non-US) currency/bank.I would still have my permanent resident status in the US and tax returns (I have an accountant helping with my taxes relating to how the US handles taxation for expatriates), but I would obviously be missing my (US-based) pay stubs, and my US Bank statements would show chunks of money being transferred in (that I would be doing from my international bank where I am receiving my salary).I was just wondering if getting a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage in the US was still possible, and if there were any tricks/pointers that I need to know about?

Just wondering from anybody elses perspective if this is a better option than to file the flip as a Schedule c.For new york city the city corporation dept doesnt recognize the s corp status so I dont think its best for nyc.

I would start with speaking to the owner of the property to see what the actual status is.

I don't think pointing that out to the assessors office or your investor status will do any good.  

@Nichele Richardson,Not being an agent or broker, I'm not sure what "active-o" means.My take would be that since you saw a price reduction, the status may be meaningless (failed to update?)

I'm under a tourist visa in process of adjustment of status.

Chapter 45 in the NCGS distinguishes between them by occupancy status.

But someone has to innovate and disrupt the status quo, Might as well be Elon ! 

You may want to confirm through IRA Services Trust Company that you won't lose your tax-deferred status if you set up the LLC yourself.
