Filing Plumbing/Electric for 1/2 House?

In contract on a 4-story, two family (double duplex) house. Old knob and tube service, cloth wiring, original plumbing. In order to cut down on costs until "phaseII" we are considering upgrading service and rewiring/replumbing entire LOWER/RENTAL duplex and leaving the UPPER duplex mechanicals reno for later. We plan to file everything...will DOB be cool with upgrading half the house? Will "tying in" the new on the lower half to the old on the upper half be an issue logistically or legally?

Thanks in advance!
