Question
I own a condo, and I believe the adjacent unit may go into foreclosure. If we can get a low enough price, my wife and I have discussed buying it and opening one or more sections of the wall that divides the units (and living in the combined space).

I assume we would need the approval of our township and condo association. But generally speaking, do you think this is feasible?

Thank you  

Answer
Anything is feasible unless there is a rule to the contrary. you will need to review the condo rules and regulations, your local zoning law, and talk to the local building inspector.  They can point you in the right direction and tell you whether the ability to merge the units exists.  But alas, this really is not a landlord tenant question... ;)
