Real estate values have always been cyclical and it's been made very clear to most owners and observers that values can drop just as quickly as they can rise. Yet, falling values do not stop us from needing a place to live. There can be remorse over purchasing something that immediately goes down in value although virtually everthing else we buy and use such as cars, clothes, food, etc., are all subject to that effect and we've learned to just accept it. Fortunately, falling real estate values have always proved to be a temporary situation for over long enough periods of time, values have always risen. This calculator provides an easy way for you to project the future value of a property using a different rate of appreciation for a series of years even if some of them are negative and then to identify by comparison what that works out to with a straight line average growth rate. Removing fear from the decision making process by looking out beyond next month or next year to a time when you would expect to sell what you buy can add the perspective needed to make truly informed and intelligent choices today.
