Comprar vivienda en Terrassa

Lo que conviene saber antes de comprar en Terrassa

Terrassa creció alrededor de su centro histórico y de la industria textil: entre finales del siglo XIX y principios del XX se levantaron fábricas, vapores y casas modernistas, muchas de ellas en el Centre. Entre los años 50 y 70, la llegada de nuevos vecinos llenó de bloques de pisos construidos con rapidez barrios como Ca n’Anglada, Torre-sana o Sant Pere Nord. Más tarde llegaron zonas de casas unifamiliares, como Les Fonts, y promociones de obra nueva en los bordes de la ciudad.

En el Centre, en casas antiguas y edificios de principios del siglo XX, fíjate en las cubiertas, las bajantes, los forjados de vigas y bovedillas y las humedades en planta baja. En los bloques de los años 50–70, pide la inspección técnica del edificio (ITE), pregunta for obras comunitarias aprobadas, comprueba si hay ascensor y haz inspeccionar las viguetas, porque en algunos edificios de esa época se usó cemento aluminoso. En las casas unifamiliares, inspecciona la cubierta, el aislamiento, el saneamiento y los muros de contención de la parcela.
