=== Houses and Hotels ===
When a player owns all the properties in a color group, he can now operate in greater secrecy, with less fear of competitors spying on him. As a result, he may now Go Condo with his properties and start building Houses, which have enhanced mind control devices and attract richer clientele, giving higher "rents" (actually mortgage payments) and more power from controlling the residents. Housing projects must be built evenly, i.e., you can't have two houses on a property until all properties have at least one. Once the neighborhood is totally gentrified (four houses on all properties) a Hotel may be built, which not only brings in plenty of money, it also attracts out of town politicians and dignitaries. Mind control of these people, although limited in duration, can have profound effect on the faction's power base. Once the Hotel is built, the House counters are returned to the Bank, although the condos still exist.

The price of building houses and hotels and installing Secret Mind Control Devices is listed on the Deed, as are the rents collected from them.

When the Bank has no houses to sell, this means all building permits are tied up in red tape and graft. Players wishing to build must wait until counters are returned to the Bank (permits cleared up). If a player is about to buy the last counters and someone else wants to build, he may try to bribe the builder for his permit.
