I did it quite a bit in the beginning. It's a valid stratagy to gain money early in the game. It basically depends on how much time you have to play the game. You also have to think about the cost of the houses vs how quickly you earn that money back over time. If you are able to on playing a lot during the time (lots of free time) you could spam brow houses or something like that (houses with a quicker refresh time). If you can only check your game every four, six, eigh or even 12 hours or once a day..you need to pick a house that matches your ability to log on and collect the revenue. It would do little good to farm all brown houses if you could only log on a couple of times a day to collect the money since they respawn every five minutes I think it is. But, if you can sit there for an hour or two once, twice, whater...a day (and want to) you could sit there and almost continually tap and collect revenue from the brown houses. Granted, it isn't much but spawning every five minutes and the fact that they cost very little you CAN make some money with them if you can stand the infernal TAPPING. Believe me it may not seem like much but the tapping 100, 200+ houses every five minutes gets very tedious VERY quickly. I would have KILLED for a button to tap that would have collected ALL revenue from my town each time I pushed it...back when I was farming...actually, I'd still like a button like that. You can always due a mix of different houses as well... through in a bunch of brown ones to start off and work you way up and see which ones are available when YOU are ready to play and have time to collect revenue. If that turns out to be blue houses then focus on buying more blues. There are tons of Youtube videos on this subject as well. It's nice to have a bunch of brown houses anyway since it gives your neighbors/friends something to tap while you are away and earn you both some revenue. People will get frustrated if they come to your town and there is nothing to tap. Always try to have extra for that. Good luck.
