Hopefully by now you have a couple of thousand Sims inhabiting your City and your monthly income is now turning green, depending upon how much debt you have taken on, it will turn green straight away, or after a few thousand sims have moved in. So, with the cash coming in and demand high for your RCI zones, you can start to lay some more roads and zone up some more blocks.
I've opted to fill in these areas with large blocks, as in the image below as I know I can easily split them up later on.
your income may be green now, but it won't be long until you are spending big again and that takes us nicely to the next phase of the game. Adding social and civic services.
thanks
I found a glitch in the system, build your first house and then upgrade it, and while its upgrading, add another home. when its done demolish the first home. then do it over and over again and money will keep adding up. all the upgrade will require from you is 1or 2 steel beams
Try always clicking on the blue pop ups and gain as many items as you can. These special items sell fr a lot higher and better than those your warehouses make. Great way to earn money, but also be careful not to sell everything as you will need them to upgrade your storage or expanding your land.
Use the global hq, buy and sell. Buy to upgrade, get monies
If your sims are not happy, and need police/fire etc, bulldoze some residential zones, you cant go big in a week. Keep your city small and manageable, then expand SLOWLY!
