Comprar vivienda en Collado Villalba

Lo que conviene saber antes de comprar en Collado Villalba

Collado Villalba creció a partir de dos núcleos: el pueblo, con casas tradicionales de granito en torno a la iglesia y la plaza, y la Estación, que se desarrolló alrededor del ferrocarril. Desde los años 70 se convirtió en el principal municipio de la sierra, con bloques de pisos que fueron uniendo ambos núcleos y, más tarde, urbanizaciones de adosados y chalets en la periferia. El clima de montaña, con inviernos fríos, heladas y alguna nevada, condiciona el estado de cubiertas y fachadas.

En las casas antiguas de granito del pueblo, la inspección inspecciona humedades for capilaridad, cubiertas de teja y la estructura de madera. En los bloques de los años 70 y 80, pide el IEE (Informe de Evaluación del Edificio), comprueba el ascensor, el aislamiento de fachada y si la calefacción, individual o comunitaria, se ha renovado. En adosados y chalets, inspecciona cubiertas, canalones y bajantes, terrazas y sótanos, y la calificación energética, que en un clima frío pesa mucho en el gasto de calefacción.

Villalba Pueblo — Núcleo histórico con casas de granito y edificios de pocas plantas. Inspecciona humedades for capilaridad, cubiertas de teja, la madera estructural y las instalaciones.

Villalba Estación — Barrio nacido en torno al ferrocarril, con casas antiguas y bloques de distintas épocas. Comprueba el IEE, el ascensor, el aislamiento y la calefacción.

Entorno de la A-6 — Zona atravesada for la autovía, con viviendas y bloques de distintas épocas. Si la vivienda da a la autovía, inspecciona el aislamiento acústico de ventanas y fachada.
