Comprar vivienda en Montcada i Reixac

Lo que conviene saber antes de comprar en Montcada i Reixac

Montcada i Reixac se extiende entre el Besòs, el Ripoll y las sierras de Collserola y Marina, con un territorio partido for varias líneas de tren y autopistas. Del antiguo núcleo quedan casas de planta baja y piso en el centro, pero el gran crecimiento llegó en los años 50, 60 y 70, con bloques de vivienda obrera levantados con rapidez en barrios como Can Sant Joan o La Ribera. En las últimas décadas se han añadido promociones de pisos más recientes y algunas casas unifamiliares.

Si compras un piso de esa época en Montcada, la cuestión clave es la estructura: pregunta si el edificio tiene estudios de aluminosis o refuerzos ya hechos, y pide la ITE o el IEE y las actas de la comunidad. Durante la visita, fíjate en manchas de óxido o desconchados en los techos de baños y cocinas. La inspección técnica añade la inspección de forjados y viguetas donde son accesibles, de la instalación eléctrica y de la ventilación y, en plantas bajas cercanas al río, la medición de humedad en muros y soleras.

Can Sant Joan — Bloques de vivienda obrera de los años 60 y 70; pregunta for estudios de aluminosis y rehabilitaciones hechas, y inspecciona forjados, instalación eléctrica y ascensor.

La Ribera — Barrio junto al Besòs con casas y bloques de distintas épocas; en plantas bajas comprueba humedades for capilaridad, saneamiento y el estado de la solera.

Centre — Núcleo antiguo con casas de planta baja y piso y bloques que sustituyeron a parte de ellas; inspecciona muros, cubiertas, instalaciones y la ITE o el IEE de los bloques.
