If you build out from scratch (which rarely makes financial sense because you have to abide by new building codes with fire sprinklers and solar panels), you may want to check with an attorney because I haven't been able to get a clear answer if you can do that with existing tenants because of yard space.

Remember once you open those walls everything has to come up to code, that will for sure mean all new electric and panel, alot of new plumbing and HVAC and can mean little more annoying things like framing not being sufficient.
