    Default How do you calculate appreciation rates?

    I am trying to understand how to calculate appreciation rates annually over time. Here are some examples:

    1) "A $235k home becomes worth $485k at 3% appreciation after 30 years, but it becomes worth a whopping $649k at 4% appreciation."

    - How was that calculated?

    2) If a home was worth $300k 10 years ago and is now worth $375k, how much appreciation is that per year?

    3) Or a general math example: "...the average new home size exploded from 983 s.f. to 2349 s.f. from 1950-2004, or about 1.6% per year on average."

    I would really appreciate some help in the math for this kind of thing...

    Thanks-
