You may or may not have realized it, but there is a fair amount of strategy that goes into monopoly. This classic game is a family favorite, but just because you're playing you mom and little brother doesn't mean winning isn't important. knowing what you're doing can dramatically improve your chances of taking over the board.
Your first few trips around the board it's important to buy anything you land on (except the utilities). The utilities have the worst "rate of return" of any of the properties you can purchase. But what should you be buying? Well, the best properties are blue, orange and red. This is because these properties will take the least amount of time to earn back your investment.
Being the first person to build houses is a HUGE advantage, but don't get too carried away. Instead of building hotels right off the bat you're actually better off building three houses on each property in your monopoly, then using the rest of your funds to acquire more monopolies.
