Unhelpful help from "friends"

I always try to vandalize first, especially if the town has less than five stars. Helping to maintain their conform-o-meter bonus percent is the best way to help friends.

If I can't vandalize, I look for the highest payout buildings I can find. But active players rarely have high payout buildings waiting for collection. After playing for six months now, it's pretty obvious to me upon entering a town whether or not high payout buildings will be available. So some times, especially for friends I know to be active and have five star ratings, I'll automatically hit KB and the brown houses.

@shaunareid, I agree with you in that many people don't like to have logical groupings of buildings out of sync. I try not to tap on just one of the two cemeteries, or break sync in a grouping of like houses. But in the end, if that's all that's available, I'm gonna tap it and be on my way.
