We recently picked up Monopoly with a new generation of players, and the flaws of the design were now apparent to adults. I think this could be a significant improvement.
Uh, isn't that the official rules? If a player lands on an unowned property, it goes to auction[0] EDIT: if the player doesn't buy it for the price printed on the board.
Corrected. Thanks. So the OP is playing with a variant where the original player landing on it doesn't get the first bite at the apple at the printed price?
Oh, I like this a lot!

No. Only if the player declines to buy it.
