I am considering buying a condo that has a garage that is directly in front. With no structure above it. This condo is a three bed 2 1/2 bath. We share a wall of the garage with a mirror unit. If we replaced a 2nd story window with a door we could build a room above the garage. Of course the neighbor would do the same to keep uniformity. Two doors away there are a pair of four beds with rooms and balconys above the garage. How do I go about raising the question of adding to my unit. Also an interesting note I am a contractor and noticed the roof joists are on 12" centers ready for weight of a room above.

**A: read your CC&R's and talk with the HOA.
