In order for someone to benefit from your tapping a house or building, two things must happen:
1) The person must log in before the timer that you started runs out (please correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think the person will get any benefit if they accept the handshake after that timer has expired).
2) After accepting the handshake, the person must return soon after the “adjusted” timer runs out to tap the house again… because if they don’t, the shortened timer didn’t really help them.
For example, if I tap a friend’s pink house at 7pm, it’ll be ready again at 1am. The friend might log in at 9pm and accept the handshake (getting the same payout they would have if I didn’t tap it), but assuming they’ll be asleep, it didn’t matter that I bumped up the next renewal time from 3am up to 1am. They still won’t tap it again till morning, so it didn’t help them at all. However, if I instead were to tap a purple house at 7pm, there’s a chance that they’ll be able to log in and tap it before 10pm to accept the handshake, and again after 10pm to benefit from the earlier purple payout.
Therefore, the strategy that is most likely to benefit your friend is to tap houses or buildings that have the longest duration such that it still results in the timer running out before your friend goes to bed. Or, find ones with a timer that expires around the time you think your friend will wake up (for "stranger" friends, I just assume they're somewhere around Central timezone). Also the 24h and 48h timers are always a good choice. Here's a helpful list of some of the longer interval buildings, put together by tsotips.com:
