Home Appreciation Calculator

Many home owners have been asking themselves over the last few years;

How much is my house worth?

Here's a quick way to find out how the average price for a theoretical home in your area has appreciated (or depreciated) over time.

Fill in the form to see a graph and compare the value of your home to a home in another city with the same purchase price over time. This calculator uses the "Housing Price Index" or HPI Data from the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA). Using same home sales and loan data, this index tracks the value of Single Family homes over time. Learn more about HPI at FHFA.gov.
