Curious, I thought that when you mortgage a property it goes up for auction, what is the rule for mortgage properties

@@BossItUp911 I just asked a question. Did not steal from anyone!.wtf. was just asking? How do we treat mortgage? Don't believe I need this hostility!

[@protorhinocerator142]

@@paulcooverjr.6947 Mortgaging a property has its own rule set. 1. You can't mortgage a property if any of the properties in that group have houses or hotels. This is the way I've always seen it played but the official rules indicate you can still mortgage a property if the other properties still have ONE house. Since there can only be a one house variance between the least and most improved properties in the set, you couldn't have a hotel on Park Place while Boardwalk is mortgaged. The most you could have is one house on Park Place. 2. If you have more than one house on the properties you must sell all the hotels and houses (at half price) back to the bank until you reach the one house variance or get rid of them all (depending on how you interpret the rules). 3. When you mortgage a property the Bank gives you half the face value. Boardwalk is worth $400 so the Bank gives you $200. This is considered a loan. 4. You must turn your card upside-down for each mortgaged property, to prove to everyone it is mortgaged. 5. You still own the property but it is mortgaged. 6. If someone lands on the mortgaged property, they don't pay you rent. In the real world mortgages don't work this way but in the game they do. Eventually you may want to un-mortgage the properties. 1. You pay half the value + 10% interest to the Bank. Basically 60% of the value of the property to cover the loan and the interest. 2. You flip that card right-side up. It's a real boy again. 3. If you cause someone to go bankrupt and take all their properties, you will pay an immediate 10% on each mortgaged property you collect from them. It will cost you another 10% (interest) when you decide to un-mortgage the property. 4. If you own all properties in that color set you can start building houses/hotels normally.

I won monopoly the other day, I only watched the video today. But I used a similar strategy. Bought as much property as possible and leveraged property that seemed valuable like green to get orange and used my property to block monopolys. I was honest with everyone in the game I told them orange is the most frequently landed on property they kept saying well no one landed their yet then bang they all dropped like flies

[@lmitz]

And always remember: if the game box runs out of houses that is supposed to happen, do not use random junk to represent more. The game is finely balanced and buying out all the houses is a strategy for preventing other people from buying them. (Which also means typically you shouldn't buy hotels)

One of the reasons why I like the two cheap guys, is if you can work it, you can create a housing shortage on the blue and the brown and by refusing to create hotels there’s not enough houses for the expensive stuff. Which by the way, is one of the original points of the game.

[@9276M8HTW]

One other gotcha related to houses: keep a close eye on the available supply. There often aren't enough to go around, leaving some people unable to build. It may be wise to build houses on a poor color just to prevent opponents from building on theirs. Also sometimes you may not want to upgrade to hotels because those houses will go back into the supply pool.

[@whatswhat2022]

Yeah a game without trading is near impossible and will go the legendary "6 hours" game. The trick is to make trades that look better for others when they are better for you. I'm going more into detail on that and the money supply in the advanced video, hopefully can have it done soon!

Also, never forget that you can "make no mistakes and still lose". Monopoly is a probabilistic game. You can own the orange properties and build up your houses and it's possible no one ever lands on them, while you always land on your opponent's undeveloped properties slowly giving them the resources to win. These strategies do not guarantee you a win every game. They will just massively increase your win rate over a large amount of games.

[@mingi1489]

That’s literally what happened to me lol I traded dark blue for orange and build houses pretty early while only one other person had a few houses but everyone just landed on the community chest and passed them for like 2-3 times only one person got bankrupted by me but I landed on green and lost almost all my money I would easily won if 1-2 people landed on them I bankrupted one person and got 2 full sets but didn’t have the money to pay them off and build houses If I had the money then I would’ve had 3 streets in a row

[@mingi1489]

I also bought up all the houses so it was even more perfect but I just got extremely unlucky.. even worse is that everyone seemed to land on my properties when I had to sell all my houses

[@bentonrp]

Yes, unluckiness can be the deciding factor... Another important strategy not covered here is that in the end, winning Monopoly is not about enriching yourself; It is really about bankrupting you opponents. This is also how many people similarly do everything right and still lose. Put simply: In Monopoly, all of your amassed riches can be taken away in a couple of moves, but bankrupt one of your opponents, and that bankruptcy puts them out of the game for good. 👍

[@Paul-vf2wl]

What's your definition of massively?

[@johnrubensaragi4125]

[@onielk]

A good thing to add, in the original version of monopoly (table top/board) there is a limited number of hotells and houses that you can own. Making it a good strategy to never convert houses to hotells because after a while you might take away the option entirely to buy houses or hotells from other players.

[@eezym8131]

But can't they just buy a hotel at once (when paying 5 houses at once) ??

[@outspade]

@@eezym8131 even if they saved up for that long no, they have to build the houses first

[@protorhinocerator142]

@@eezym8131 No, not according to the fine print in the rules. You can improve your properties up to a hotel in one turn but you MUST buy 4 houses on each first and then convert them into hotels. It's like walking 10 steps from the kitchen to the bathroom. You can do that fairly quickly but if there's a big crater in the house you can't just teleport to the bathroom. You must put in your steps. In Monopoly, buying houses is your steps.

[@ashg9023]

We play mega monopoly and the number of houses and hotels is the same as the standard game, so it's less mega boom and more mega recession. Sometimes you need to add or remove things from a game because the developers haven't always thought it through.

[@jesuseinstein4706]

Just use some random stuff instead that is lying around, so you never run out of houses or hotels or just print more in a 3D printer.

[@TheDerangedWarrior]

Something I've learned is to try and monopolize the railroads. Hitting the middle isn't common, but having your opponents be at risk every roll leaves you having a bunch of cash on hand. Also having someone draw the chance card that states a player has to advance to a railroad but had to pay twice the rent if it's already owned also gives you a lot of support, leaving you 400 bucks richer

[@jeremywj]

Yeah, but very hard to monopolize the railroads unless your opponent(s) are stupid

[@TheDerangedWarrior]

@@jeremywj I got lucky because my little brother didn't realize the potential the railroads had. I still lost the game because my mom went bankrupt when she owed my dad, and I had little to no properties

[@Lastjustice]

I love to get the railroads if possible. You will sometimes see players roll doubles and keep landing on railroads along the way. Even at 200 bucks, this will chip away at their funds nicely. My favorite groups to score will still be the orange and light blues since they are extremely probably places for people land, but the railroads mixed in with some sold coverage of the board just doom for your opponents. Especially when they get an ill timed card forcing them to them.

[@nix4110]

The railroads are good late game as well because of their value as mortgageable properties which retain their full rent price on every unmortgaged property. In a 1v1 unmortgaging the railroads is a really safe way to put property back on the board which can be liquidated at little cost again

So I like the theory and strategy , and as far as the best properties go your theory lines up pretty well with the empirical test that was done by running tons of simulations, the only difference is that for some reason in thousands of games the green properties tend to be landed on a disproportionately high amount of times.

Light blue is always the most fiercely contested in my games. If you can get those set up really fast, which you often can because they are roughly where everyone lands first, you can start your opponents bleeding cash before they get anything of their own going to recuperate it.

[@X-SPONGED]

Yup, people land on them surprisingly often

[@Lastjustice]

Properties from Go and Jail are the most probable locations to land on. There's plenty of game functions that drag players to both Go and Jail, so when they roll from either of those places, 6 and 8 are second most common numbers to come up. (7 is the most likely with two dice, but Community Chest and Chance are always the 7th space.) Why the light blues and oranges are two on the highest interaction locations to own.

[@beechamberlain8287]

Same but the pink set, pal mall, Northumberland av, Whitechapel

[@firecat3613]

They are a good set-up for the end. But the true power corner are the Orange and Red. Your opponent lands on Vermont with a hotel ($550). Next turn he rolls an 8 (St. James, $950). The turn after that he rolls a 7 (Indiana, $1050). This can happen a lot. In such a case, those blue properties were the beginning of the end and the emotional downfall of your opponent.

It's true that 3 houses is usually the sweet spot. But even 2 houses can be painful to hit from the reds on. Also, i'd personally be inclined to split the board more up and down, instead of diagonally from jail. That is, i would include the light blues and exclude the yellows from the frequently hit properties. People often hit the light blues coming around go. Also, virginia, st james, and tennesse are good for extra houses for people rolling doubles coming out of jail. On the other hand, st charles, illinois, and boardwalk are card targets. Of course, the railroads are awesome to own, though houses cannot be built on them.

[@whatswhat2022]

Really good comment. I have a little bit about that in the advanced video, still working on. Love the light blues and they are easily a top 3 property set, but as a very simple rule of thumb, your odds of landing on are way higher between jail and the go to jail spot

Try my new rule. TAKEOVER. Land on an opponent's property, then when the opponent asks you to pay rent, Pay the Listed price of that Property PLUS Double Rent TO THE BANK instead to the owner. You can snatch their property ALONG WITH THEIR HOUSES/HOTELS. This not only takes down stubborn traders(by potentially destroying their set and their chances of building houses), but also players who move later can gain properties, gaining them a better start instead of starting their game in a disadvantage. The downside of this is this is very likely to be more expensive than Auctions, so players will have to think twice before attempting it.

[@joshkeller2671]

Very informative for new players, me and my friends have been going back and forth in monopoly for years every week so it's nothing new to us and we're all aware of everything covered but the basics are very important to understand nonetheless. Our biggest problem is trades, because we know all the best and worst to own we rarely ever make a deal to start with and it gets very complex trying to figure out who is coming out on top. One very important thing I think was missed is the limit on houses in a game, buying them without going to hotels drastically handicaps your opponents so if they try and make a deal with you and there's only 9 houses left make sure the deal is on your turn or you'll be stuck with a worthless set while they're rolling out construction. Going to hotels has proven to be me more harmful then good in 90% of scenarios especially if there's not enough houses to remove the hotels if you're in a tight spot.

Monopoly is a fun game, but the major problem with it is you pretty much know who will win the game after you go around 2-3 times. After that, you just spend 2-3 hours making it official. Less than 50% of the time, ime, is the ultimate winner not obvious early on. I guess my ultimate point is strategy really only comes into play if you and another player are even after the first 2-3 times around the board. Therefore, there is nothing you can do to win monopoly "every time". Luck is the deciding factor in 50% or more of games.

I think it's ridiculous that when someone rolls doubles and gets closer to your property than you'd otherwise expect, that all of a sudden you can interrupt their turn and buy houses. So, I came up with the reasonable house rule that you can ONLY buy houses on your turn and then ONLY before you roll the dice.

[@pikipoki1801]

We have gotten to the same rule but you can do whatever you want until next player rolls the dice

I think most of the world plays with your made up rule in mind. Even all fake online monopolies have it like that.

The problem with all of this is that pretty much every game I've played had the group insisting on using rules that aren't in the rule book (collecting taxed money on free parking, not auctioning, no rent in jail, using placeholders when houses have run out, etc.) and the worst part is that they insist that their DIY rules are the real rules despite showing them the rule book. It completely ruins the game.

THANK YOU SO MUCH ❤, I won an otherwise lost game by absolutely bamboozling my friend through a trade, asking him to give me 2 tiles (making my pair) on jail side of board and a few cash, in return I gave him like 4 different tiles on jail side which made his 3 pairs and he had an existing pair beforehand. He had total 4 pairs and I had only 1 but as the game goes on most of the time we both landed on jail and almost every time he had to pay me because of the dice odds whereas I paid him only like TWICE even though he had 3 pairs of tiles more than I had, he landed 4 FREAKING TIMES ON MY HOTEL even though I had only 1 pair, ultimately he lost that game, he was stunned, it was so fun bullying that annoying friend of mine.

[@anonymous2106]

I feel that one of the most important things is mastering negotiation. For example, If I was trying to trade Boardwalk to get the Orange monopoly, I would mention how much I paid for Boardwalk in comparison to the orange which I'm receiving. But even if I was on the opposite side, I would mention that my houses cost much more than the orange property, hence why I will not accept the deal without gaining money or extra property that I would then mortgage. Also, I like to buy random properties early in the game that I know could become very valuable later on. For example, I would offer $500 for st. James knowing that if I wait, the price will go way up. So I kind of treat it like the stock market, Buy Low Sell high. I've been almost undefeated recently in my very competitive family monopoly game as of late, so I hope some of these strategies help you guys out

[@Yesnaught]

You might be able to simplify the first two tips together - take your jail/go sides, rotate them ccw 90°, call that your attack and defence halves. If you're starting on an attack edge, be aggressive wherever you might land. The sides might be a bit far back considering the average 7 roll not being enough to clear one edge, but consider that doubles grant extra rolls, and therefore greater travel, and you'll probably even out. Also, general monopoly tip, not necessarily for winning: set a lap limit. Most value at the end wins. Don't play to domination, that's how games drag on.

Green is crazy expensive because 3 houses on 3 properties runs you $1800, but blue gets to only be $1200 bc 2 properties, for a lower chance to land, but higher kill potential. I like dark blue, but mostly when you know the advance to boardwalk card is coming up soon 😂

I agree with the math and the base strategy in this video, however I do feel like there is somethings you are not considering. There is a limit of 32 houses. Therefore the browns are cheap to build on, can drain up to 8 houses out of the total thus in my opinion making them pretty desirable. Monopoly yes, is about beating your opponents but also out surviving them, which I think this video doesn’t consider enough :)

One of my best strategies is to buy all the rail stations and utilities at the beginning of the game ... which allows me to earn a decent Amount of money to fund my next strategy.after earning a decent amount of money I buy some cheap properties and then build hotels on them and thats how I always have an advantage against other players.

My family refuses to play Monopoly with me already, surely this will change their minds

[@OPiguy35]

Overall, good strategy. However, I disagree with the early note to not buy Med / Baltic…I’ve bankrupted opponents a number of times based off just having this monopoly. They often can be something that opponents undervalue in trades (sometimes one of the few developable monopolies I can get opponents to trade) Additionally, I’ve found that a rainbow of properties in my hand allows me to help control the tempo and decide when I want to offer a trade (eg when I’ve got the cash (or ability to get cash via mtg)) that works out in my favor.

[@lindseysummers5351]

I made trades that wound up with me buying the whole ghetto (the first side past Go.) I had plenty of cash, so I immediately erected a hotel on both monopolies, plus I owned all four railroads. That move right there beat my opponents into submission. They were trying to save their cash to develop on the blue, green, and yellow properties but knew they couldn't get past me. They all conceded. Wimps.

My friends and I mastered all aspects of Monopoly through junior high (risk/reward, probabilities, and the art of the deal; aka manipulation). Endless summer hours playing the game on picnic tables or in doors, among many other games. All adults who asked me to play Monopoly later in life learned very harsh lessons.

[@awesomebossman788]

The railroads are the most underrated properties in my opinion. Firstly, they’re easier to trade for because most people undervalue them. I’ll tell someone that i’ll only do a certain trade if they throw in their railroad, making it seem like it’s just a throwaway property. Secondly, they’re landed on very often. It’s the only monopoly with 4 spaces on the board(2 of which are on the “jail side”, and one of them being in that 5-9 range right out of jail). There’s also 3 chance cards that send you to a railroad(2 of which make you pay double what’s owed). The next highest is just 1 chance card. One time i had a single person land on 3 in a row! Thirdly, it gives you a safe space to land on on every side of the board. And Fourth, they require very little setup. They don’t require you to buy houses but they still pay a lot of money for how often they’re landed on. They’re the best way to make money early because of this, making it easier to buy houses later, and making it harder for your opponents to buy them later too. A lot of games, getting the railroads early can make the other monopolies not even matter. I can build houses on my bad properties and my opponents can’t build houses on their good properties.

[@romainbelet5105]

I think railroads are the strongest. No setup makes them so strong post trades, and makes you get money really fast to setum houses on other places. They are not a winning condition by themselves, but make the game 100% times easier

Then again we were playing on the wii against 2 bots so I’m sure they were programmed to just not land on our spaces. 😂

[@raidzeromatt]

Light blue is an early game strategy, if you don't bankrupt your opponents early on then you'll end up losing mid-late game

[@lukeburris1011]

Light blue’s real power is in being able to buy up all the houses there for cheap. Pink is a good set, but not quite as good as orange or red. It’s cheaper, but it’s harder to bankrupt people. It’s mostly just nice for when you know the advance to st Charles is coming up and can get low risk money. But, it usually needs another set with it to secure the win.

[@plasmac9]

It's not just orange and red. Owning any corner entirely will almost certainly win you the game.

[@Ghalion666]

I played this game like 80 times, and only like the last 4 times did I read the directions myself and learn how it is ACTUALLY meant to be played , which made all the difference to make this turn from a luck-dominant game to a strategy-dominant game. Instantly I became super interested and watched videos like this. However, none of them even talk about the most fundamental part which basically makes or ruins the game, which is the original part of auctioning properties. IMO auctioning properties to make your enemies broke is even more important than focusing on which ones you get overall to begin with. Since you can easily trade the 'bad' properties after for the good ones if you got a lot more because you played them auction-wise... I always auction stuff not based on how much I think something is worth, but based on how much I think my opponent will pay for it, then once they... pay for it. I clean house by buying everything else on the cheap... I watched this video because I was hoping for tips on how your average human values stuff, and how to maximize how much they pay for something, so I can take advantage of this point. But like I said, I've only played like 4 games since learning the REAL rules, and am eager to murder my opponents even more =).

[@Paul-vf2wl]

That's only an advantage if you play against morons

[@RepairBeyond]

True. Strategy can be separated into static and dynamic. Knowing "which squares to own" is static and doesn't change from one game to the next, and it will basically come down to luck if you're playing other players that did their research. Auctions and deals are dynamic and hence far more interesting.

Interesting overview of the strategy...in my experiences playing this game: owning the Orange, Red and Green properties were how I won most of the time. If I didn't get at least 2 of those 3 sets, I never won, so I find it interesting that you say to never buy the green properties, but it's all probability and how you broke down the game board makes a lot of sense from strictly a mathematics point of view. There's always going to be variables though and I should mention that I've never played a game of Monopoly where people actually auctioned off properties...it was either buy the property or it went back to the bank until someone else landed on it lol

[@TheRealScooterGuy]

Most home games are like that. (And don't get me started about piles of money in the middle of the board waiting for someone to land on "Free Parking" like it's winning the lottery.) But play in a tournament run by a game store or the like and you will find that people are fanatical about strictly following the rules, including auctions. Usually, the only house rules in those tournaments are things which don't affect the game (such as food/drink rules), cost to play (if any), etc.

[@holden88]

The Greens are very poor (the worst?). They are not landed upon often. People often skip them completely when landing on go to jail. They are also very expensive to build on. There are no cards that send people to them (or send them to a spot that sets them up to land on the greens). The "Go back three spaces" chance card doesn't help the greens either. The Blues get a pass because they pay out at an inflated rate and there is "advance to Boardwalk" that boosts them. Orange and reds are pure money though!
