How the Home Appreciation Calculator works
Future value = current value × (1 + rate ÷ 100)^years. Years to double = ln 2 ÷ ln(1 + rate ÷ 100). Real prices rise and fall by region and period, so a steady rate is only an assumption for planning. A negative rate models a declining market. Example: A $350,000 home growing 4 percent a year is worth about $518,085.50 after 10 years, a gain of 48.02 percent. At that rate it doubles in about 17.7 years.
