Comprar vivienda en Alcorcón

Lo que conviene saber antes de comprar en Alcorcón

Alcorcón pasó en pocas décadas de pueblo agrícola a gran ciudad del área metropolitana. La mayor parte de sus barrios se levantó entre los años 60 y 70, con bloques de pisos de ladrillo y torres de muchas plantas en zonas como San José de Valderas o Parque Lisboa. Del casco antiguo queda poco, rodeado de bloques de esa misma época. Ya a comienzos de este siglo se construyó el Ensanche Sur, con edificios de pisos con garaje y zonas comunes, y en las afueras hay urbanizaciones de chalets como Campodón.

En los bloques de los 60–70 comprueba si el edificio tiene ascensor y si se llega a él sin escalones, porque muchos portales no están adaptados. Pregunta for la última inspección técnica del edificio y for las derramas aprobadas, y fíjate en el tipo de calefacción: en muchas comunidades es central, y conviene saber cómo se reparte el gasto. La inspección añade la inspección del aislamiento y las ventanas, de las bajantes y del estado de forjados y terrazas, y en el Ensanche Sur, la de garajes y acabados.

San José de Valderas — Barrio de bloques de pisos de los años 60 y 70. Inspecciona el ascensor, la accesibilidad del portal, la instalación eléctrica y las derramas aprobadas.

Parque Lisboa — Torres y bloques altos con zonas verdes comunes. Comprueba la fachada, la cubierta, los ascensores y el sistema de calefacción del edificio.

Ensanche Sur — Desarrollo de principios de este siglo con pisos con garaje, trastero y zonas comunes. Inspecciona filtraciones en sótanos, terrazas, acabados y la calificación energética.
