Monopoly Go: Upgrade By Value Strategy

Hey, Monopoly tycoons! Ready to build your empire smarter, not harder, in Monopoly Go? As of 7 March 2025, this guide focuses on the "Upgrade By Value" strategy - a killer way to maximise your cash flow and net worth without wasting a single roll. Inspired by proven tactics and player wisdom, we'll skip the fluff and dive straight into how to prioritise upgrades for the biggest bang for your buck. Let's roll up our sleeves and start stacking the Monopoly money!

What is Upgrade By Value?

Spend smarter, win bigger

In Monopoly Go, upgrading landmarks (those fancy buildings on your board) increases your net worth and boosts your income - the key to unlocking new boards and outplaying your rivals. "Upgrade By Value" means focusing on the landmarks that give you the most return per dollar spent, rather than just throwing cash at everything. Each board has five landmarks, and upgrading all six levels of each completes the board - but the trick is knowing which ones to upgrade first for maximum profit.

Why it matters

Cash is king, efficiency is queen

Net worth boost: Each upgrade increases your net worth, unlocking goodies like Auto Roll (level 8) or Albums (level 15).Income Spike: More expensive upgrades mean more cash from dice, robberies and rent - fuel for your next big move.Risk Dodge: Cash lying around? It's heist bait. Smart upgrades keep your bank thin and your empire strong.With over 215 boards and costs running into the billions (e.g. level 294's total of 64.4 billion), random upgrades burn dice and time. Play value first to stay ahead.

How to upgrade by value

Step-by-step strategy

Here's your playbook for prioritising upgrades like a pro:

Know your costs

The first upgrade of each landmark sets the tone - the cost increases with each level (1 to 6). Example: Level 1's first upgrade might be 100K, but level 294's is 575M.Rough formula: First upgrade cost x 112 = total board cost (e.g. 575M x 112 = ~64.4B). Use this for planning.

Spot the high rollers

Check your board - tokens linked to high traffic tiles (near GO, railways or chance) often pay more. They aren't labelled by value, but the rewards of the roll will indicate this.Prioritise the most expensive first upgrades - they signal greater long-term gains (e.g. starting at 575M vs. 200M).

Upgrade in order

Start with the most valuable landmark - spend money on its six levels first. More houses = more income per roll.Move down the list - the cheapest landmarks come last. Example: If landmark A's first upgrade is 500M and B's is 200M, max A before touching B.

Batch your builds

Save money until you can fully upgrade a landmark (or the whole board) - half-builds invite shutdowns.Aim: Complete all five landmarks (30 upgrades in total) to advance to the next board.

Use events

Builder's Bash (discounts upgrades by 10-50%) cuts costs - wait for it to stretch your cash.Cash Boost (doubles cash roll) pairs perfectly - upgrade, then roll big for a quick payback.

Pro tips for Value Mastery

Work the system

Dice Fuel: Stockpile rolls (daily shop gift, 25-30 every 8 hours; social connections, 25-50) to get high multipliers (x10-x50) for cash hauls.Shield Up: Grab shields (maximum of three) from rolls or events - protect valuable landmarks from shutdowns.Quick Wins: Tap on 'Wins' (bottom left) - daily tasks such as 'Upgrade a Landmark' will net you dice and cash to keep building.Robbery defence: Spend before you log out - empty banks can't be robbed.Track returns: No exact in-game ROI stats, but watch roll payouts - upgraded boards pay 2-3x more.

Why it works

Math meets chaos

Upgrading by value flips the script - instead of throwing cash at every landmark, you're stacking rewards where they hit hardest. Early boards (e.g. level 1) might cost 15M in total, but by level 100 you're up to 10B+. High-value upgrades will boost your income faster, allowing you to snowball through boards (five landmarks x six levels = 30 upgrades per jump). It's not luck - it's strategy beating chaos.

Thank you for reading

With the Upgrade By Value strategy, you'll dominate Monopoly Go - focus on the big-ticket landmarks, stack your builds, and ride events to the top. Keep your dice ready, your cash flowing, and your net worth soaring - happy rolling, tycoons!
