What is Capital Growth?

Capital Growth is the percentage increase in the price of an asset over time; in this case, a property, and is often referred to as the return on your investment. An investment property can be measured by two types of financial returns; capital growth (increase in property value) and rental yield (income), and can be easily identified using our capital growth calculator. It helps give you an idea of how much your property’s value might increase over the years, helping you to assess your investment options.

Influencing Factors

For a long term ‘buy and hold’ strategy, a history of stable growth between 6-10% is essential. Capital growth is driven by simple demand and supply forces; the demand of people wanting to live within the area, and the supply (volume) of houses available.

How to Calculate Capital Growth – Our Capital Growth Calculator

The capital growth calculator below delivers you an estimate of how your property’s capital growth occurs over a specified time frame. It is a useful tool for investors wishing to estimate the potential increase in a property’s value over time, before committing to the investment.

To use the calculator, you’ll need three pieces of information:

  • Original purchase price of the property
  • The current value of the property
  • Number of years since purchase

If you’re working out rental yield for a single property, or properties you already own, it’s straightforward. Divide your annual rental income by the property value and then multiply it by 100 to get your yield percentage. Just remember that using a tool like a property investment calculator is a great starting point, but it is important to engage with a professional to ensure you’re seeing the full picture.
