How It Works

This calculator uses the following formula to adjust property prices for inflation:

Adjusted Price = (Current Price / (1 + Inflation Rate)^Years) * Original Price

The inflation rate is calculated based on the average annual inflation rate for the period between the start and end years. The calculator then applies this rate to adjust the property prices accordingly.

Note: This calculator uses average inflation rates. Actual inflation rates may vary by location and property type.

Example Calculation

Let's say you bought a property in 2010 for $200,000 and it's now worth $300,000 in 2023. The average annual inflation rate for this period is 2%.

Using the formula:

Adjusted Price = ($300,000 / (1 + 0.02)^13) * $200,000 Adjusted Price ≈ $250,000

This means the property has appreciated by $50,000 in real terms after accounting for inflation.
