Looking at these tables we can see the high profitability of building a hotel, which explains why the winner of Monopoly is often the player who decided to take the risk of building several houses and hotels, even if it meant spending a lot of money and mortgaging the undeveloped properties.

Studies have shown that the odds of landing on an orange square are higher than landing on any other color set. The orange color set is one of the most profitable sets in regards to the cost of buying a hotel and the subsequent rent the owner receives.

Utilities

Water works

There are two utility squares in Monopoly: Water Works and Electric Company. They both have a purchase price of 150 each.

If a player owns only one utility, then the rent is 4 times the amount indicated by the dice roll of an opponent. For example, if an opponent rolls a 6 and it lands them on the utility you own, then they have to pay you 24 (4×6=24). If a player owns both utilities, then the rent is 10 times the amount indicated by the dice. For example, if you own both utilities and an opponent rolls a 2 and it lands them on one of your utilities, then they have to pay you 20 (10×2=20).

Stations

Liverpool Street Station

There are 4 stations in Monopoly: Reading Railroad, Pennsylvania Railroad, B&O Railroad, and Short Line (in the US version); King’s Cross Station, Marylebone Station, Fenchurch Street Station, and Liverpool Street Station (in the UK version). The purchase price of each railroad is 200. If you own a railroad the rent is 25 and if you own 2 the rent is 50, 100 for 3 stations, and 200 for 4 stations.
