I'm sure this has been mentioned but if you REALLY have a lot of time to kill and your game NEVER CRASHES, you can make a killing this way:
Collect one house from each neighbor. The next day start this process collect the remaking houses. If you time it right the tasks will start over and you can collect 3 houses from every friend you've just collected 2 houses from. So in stead of the money that adds up over 300 houses you get the money from 500 houses!
I got lazy yesterday and stopped collecting halfway through my friends and was shocked to see the timer had been running ever since I collected the first house.
That is a great point... I had noticed that the first tap resets the clock, but hadn't thought the implications of this all the way through yet. That would (potentially) be an AMAZING amount of income!
Wait, could you run through this one more time for the thinking impaired?

You get 3 taps per neighbor per day. You have to wait 24 hours to visit them again, but that clock starts as soon as you make your first tap. So if you visit all your neighbors and tap once, then come back 23 hours later, you can tap twice, then three more times at the 24 hour mark.

Right! I've been diong this quite a bit because I have a bunch of lower-level neighbors. I tap once to reset the timer then return near the time for my next day's rounds. I wasn't doing it for any bonus, though; I just couldn't find enough buildings to either vandalize or get coins from in one visit. I'd return near the next round due to personal time constraints (cannot tap-tap throughout the day). How wonderful of you to do the maths and "research." Thank you!
Hmm, but that still adds up to six taps in 48 hours, no? Same difference, you just waited an extra day to get two of them.
Unless you mean that the cumulative effect on tapping houses carries over to the next set? In that case, I imagine the extra effort would be rewarded with an obscene amount of cash!
Doing this has become really fun actually. The added danger of crashing makes every new visit exciting as you see the totals increase before it flakes out. The worst is when you accidentally hit the home button instead of the friends button and reset it yourself. >_<

We die-hard gamers will make the best out of any situation, won't we? Fun and excitement from frequent, unpredictable game crashes. Aren't we resilient?

As long as you don't leave the friends screen then it should carry over... The key is to not crashing in 500 visits, which would be an absolute MIRACLE. I can get up to about 100 loads, then kaput. I'd love to have a crash-free day to post an insane total payout a least once!
I have a few peeps who I save to the end for that reason like jofre_nash (those his has been much better of late), but I've found it's mostly random these days. You never know when you're going to get that big D'OH!
I had an amazing run tonight. Managed to get almost to the end; All the way from A to Z back to A and then to P when it finally crashed on me. I was so excited about getting through 300 visits and seeing what the total would be, oh well.
It still worked out rather nicely. Here's the progress: I started off getting $18 for my first tap and continued with one tap per town all the way through. By the time I got to H it was at $100 a tap, by N it was $150 and by W it was $200. Going back the other way, I was up to $250 by the Ms, $300 by the Is and $350 by the Cs. Coming back around for the final pass, I was getting $400 per tap at the ****, $450 by the Fs and by the time I got back to Moopsdude's town for the third time, I was tapping on a single $500 icon. By the time I got to the last town before the crash in the mid-Ps, I was netting $523 and 35XP per tap!
This run brought in a total of $75,345, which obviously could have been even higher had I finished the rounds!
I'd say that around 50% of my friends has a premium boost by visiting, so YMMV depending on how donut-friendly your connections are.

5 visits per neighbor in one streak.
