8 SimCity BuildIt : Tips

1. Use your Sim Cash wisely

• Don't use them to speed things up, its an utter waste of the precious resource.
• Use them to increase your commercial buildings make item spots, I recommend to make sure that each of your shops have at least 3 slots.
• If you are desperate you can also use your Sim Cash for buying items that wl help you to increase city storage and expand your city
• Just don't waste them on factory time speed-ups

2. Save all the items you get from popping thought bubbles up

• Keep on collecting them until you unlock the city storage.
• Upgrade the city storage to store upto 100 items
• Don't bother to upgrade the city storage any further for a long time
• You will not fill up the storage for a long time
• Sell any other items which helps to upgrade the city storage for max price at the trade depot
• Easy way to make simoleons
• Never sell the items which help to expand your city
  

3. Build a few houses concentrated  on a single area first.

• Keep on upgrading them till you max them out.
• This will give you lots of cash to invest
• Now build fire stations, health centers etc... in a way that they cover all the houses you built, which should be easy since you concentrated them on a single area.
• This helps you easily manage the buildings

4.  Visit the Global Trade HQ frequently

• Short on materials?
• Visit the Global Trade HQ
• Most of the time you will find the materials you need, that too at a good price.
• I buy all the vegetables my city need from there :)
• Just be sure to hurry or the item will be sold

5.  Never build the small fire station/police station or health clinic

• These thing are not at all value for money
• They cover a very small area and you will end up spending lots of cash and buying lots of them if you decide to use them
• If your short on cash, just be patient and save enough to buy their medium sized/large sized versions
• Place them strategically so that they cover the most amount of homes

6. Place shops, services buildings and specialization buildings inside the dirty radius of your factories 

• This helps to create a divider between residential and industrial areas
• Also this helps to manage space and helps you to place less homes near those dirty areas
• This boosts happiness and increases tax rates.

7.  Always make sure that your shops and factories are working

• Never leave them idle
• Make them craft items which take a less time to craft while you are playing and make them craft items which take longer to craft while your not playing the game
• Make sure that you always have materials in your hands

8. Be social and get a lot of neighbours

• Join one of the SimCity groups or circles in G+ or Facebook
• This will allow you to trade more and strike it rich
• You will get the materials you need faster and as an added bonus if you make a lot of friends you can get free Sim Cash from the mayor's mansion
• It's a win-win situation for both you and them
