A property worth ₹70,00,000 growing 6% a year is worth about ₹1,25,35,934 in 10 years, a gain of ₹55,35,934.
Show the calculation steps
- Future value = value × (1 + rate)^years = ₹70,00,000 × (1 + 6%)^10 = ₹1,25,35,934.
- Gain = ₹55,35,934; the value multiplies 1.79 times.
- Property prices are local and uneven; a constant rate is only an assumption.
Projecting a value
Multiply today's value by one plus the yearly growth rate for each year. A steady 6% doubles a property's value in about twelve years.
Working out past growth
To measure how fast a property has appreciated, enter the price you paid and today's value. The answer is a compound annual rate, comparable with any other investment.
Formula
Future value = Current value × (1 + rate)^years
Annual appreciation = (Current ÷ Bought)^(1 ÷ years) − 1
Where:
- rate
- = Annual appreciation as a decimal
- years
- = Number of years
