Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Springfield Heights has arrived in Springfield and finally there’s some decent expansion going on! Loads of new stores, mansions, decorations and a ton of new land…all just beyond the mountains!
This is a fun update, designed to take a while. So DO NOT RUSH IT! It’s here for the long haul, and not going anywhere. So take your time, enjoy it…don’t make yourself crazy with rushing everything, because I guarantee you you will get stuck at some point if you keep rushing.
EA has phased this expansion to have new stuff released as time moves on. So not everything for Springfield Heights is currently available (you’ll notice this if you go to Other Springfield, you’ll see some buildings there not currently available..like the Plastic Surgery Center). More is coming…so pace yourself and remember to have fun. I know it’s tempting to get everything done immediately, but there’s no prize for finishing first. Heck the quicker you finish the less you’ll have to do (since I promise you will get stuck at some point if you rush). Remember it’s a marathon…so relax and have fun with it!
Anywho, now let’s talk about something you’re all eager to know more about…Real Estate Points! How do you get them? What do they do? And how the heck can you get more of them and fast? Well, as always we’re here for you. So let’s break it all down, with some tips and tricks you can use to earn more!

So now that we’ve covered the basics. Let’s break it down and give you some tips to earn more Real Estate Points at a decent rate, especially if you’re stuck.
First thing I’m going to tell you…the Key to Earning More Real Estate Points is continuously spending/earning the Springfield Heights Currency (
For example…expanding your land won’t earn you any Real Estate Points BUT you should expand your land enough to unlock the currency buildings in Springfield Heights. Be smart about it. Don’t unlock all the land, just clear a short path to the next building. Try to find the quickest route, ie the least about of currency required, to get there.
However, spending currency to buy items in the store and upgrade condos, mansions, etc WILL earn you more Real Estate Points.
So just be smart about what you spend and how you spend it. Think before you tap.
