Players cannot collect rent on any mortgaged property and they cannot have houses on mortgaged property. Mortgage values are one-half of the purchase price listed on each title card. However, once built, a house may not be shifted around on properties. For example, they may put one house on one property in a city and an apartment on another property in the same city. There are no restrictions on how players may distribute their houses on the properties on which they may build. Houses and apartments may be purchased only on the player's turn. Monopolists place their houses on the space marked with an M. Prices for the improvements are listed on the title cards. Instead of the fourth house, monopolists return the houses to the Treasury and purchase an apartment. Monopolists can build up to three houses on each city street they have monopolized. Prices for the improvements are listed on the title cards.Ĭompetitors place their houses on the space on which the city name is printed.

Instead of building a fifth house, competitors return the four houses to the Treasury and purchase an apartment. Building House and ApartmentsĬompetitors can build up to four houses on each street they own. Monopolists may build only in cities they have monopolized. When the city has three streets, monopolists can charge double on that street also when acquired. Then they can charge double rent on the streets owned. When monopolists own any two streets in a city, they have monopolized the city. The Treasurer gives the purchaser the appropriate title card.Ī player landing on a street, transportation company or utility owned by someone else must pay the owner the amount listed on the respective title card. If a player declines to buy the property, it stays in the Treasury as un-owned property.

Players may trade off roles before the start of the game if they wish. Role division is done by rolling the dice and letting the player with the highest dice score choose between being either a monopolist or competitor and then letting the others make their choices by clockwise rotation. (For example, a division of 2 competitors and 3 monopolists is legitimate but division of 2 competitors and 4 monopolists is against the rules). The players are divided evenly to be either competitors or monopolists.Įven division means that there are the same number of competitors and monopolists or, if there is an uneven number of players, the difference between competitors and monopolists cannot be more than one.
