Washington, DC Pop-Up Rules

[Karthik B.]

Hi,

I am looking into purchasing a 4-plex in NE Washington, DC. Each unit is a 1BD/1BA and the building is on a 2700 square foot lot. I'm wondering if it would be possible to pop-up, add another level and convert this 4-plex into a 6-plex or even pop-out and expand the building in the back. 

I know new pop-up rules went into effect in 2015 and I'm wondering if any of this would work out in my favor. 

Thanks in advance for your help and advice!
