Answer 1

if you own a property yes someone else can buy a property of the same color, thats when bartering comes into play... you give him something he wants, and you get what you want... but you do need to have a monopoly (own all of the properties on one color) before you can start building on them

when you mortgage your property, it is usually because you need the money, before you can mortgage you have to sell all houses or hotels first, then you announce what properties you are going to mortgage, then you turn that property over and then you recieve whatever ammount is on the back of the proprty card, you cannot collect rent from a property when it is mortgaged, and to "un-mortgage" a property you pay the bank back what you recieved for that particular property

and about auctions, im sorry, ive never played with them, if you are talking about when a player leaves a game, you can either give that players belongings to the person that bankrupted them or give their property back to the bank...

Answer 2

1. yes they can buy an open space that they land on reguardless of its color group. You have to have all 3 of the color group to build your houses, and you have to have a house on each of the 3 properites before you can built a second house, and the same goes up to one hotel per property.

2. When you morgage your property, you are leasing it back to the bank to get money, usually when you run out. You then have to pay back the cost of the morgage to the bank, as listed on the back of the property cards.

3.For an auction, you start the bid out with the person to the left of the person who choose not to buy the property, you then rotate clockwise giving each person a chance to bid higher than the previous person, once no one is willing to bid higher, then the winning bid takes it.

Answer 3

To mortgage you need to flip it over and collect the mortgage money but to pay it back you need to pay the same amount you collected plus 10%.

Answer 4

If a property hasn't been purchased, when a person lands on it they have the chance to buy it regardless of whether another person owns another property of the same colour. The rules mean that in order to build houses, you must first own all the properties of the colour that you want to build on.

When you mortgage a property you flip the card over and collect the mortgage amount in cash from the bank. While it's flipped over you don't collect rent from it if another player lands on it. To unmortgage you pay the mortgage amount back to the bank and unflip the card.

Auctions, from what I remember, happen if a person decides to not buy the available property that a person lands on. I'm not sure what the starting bid should be, but you just keep bidding until no-one wants to bid a higher amount.
