Answer 1

For the configuration to work need to add:

modelMapper.getConfiguration().setAmbiguityIgnored(true);

E.g.

ModelMapper modelMapper = new ModelMapper();
modelMapper.getConfiguration().setAmbiguityIgnored(true);
modelMapper.addMappings(clientPropertyMap);
modelMapper.map(UserDTO, User);


PropertyMap clientPropertyMap = new PropertyMap() {
    @Override
    protected void configure() {
        skip(destination.getCity());
    }
};
