Before buying or renting in La Blanqueada

  1. Confirm the location

    Check the polygon against Unión, Larrañaga and Parque Batlle; a project label is not enough.

  2. Visit at different times

    Record which rooms receive direct daylight and return at rush hour to test traffic noise with the windows open and closed.

  3. Review the building and condominium

    For a used property, request meeting minutes, reserve-fund information, common expenses and records on lifts, façades and shared systems.

  4. Compare like with like

    Match property type, size, condition, orientation, parking and the specific block. A broad area label does not make two homes equivalent.
