What formula does the Capital Appreciation & ROI Simulator use?
Capital Appreciation & ROI Simulator is a free simulator on RealtyIQ that project roi for a property investment over your holding period. The calculation applies the standard formula for this computation, and every result screen shows the full breakdown rather than just the headline number.
Formulas in property math are simple; the inputs are where the errors live. The calculator keeps the formula side transparent and shows the intermediate values, so you can verify any result by hand if you want to.
For cross-checking, the same formulas power the comparison tables on RealtyIQ project pages, so a calculator result and a listing figure always reconcile.

This answer is part of RealtyIQ's calculator FAQ series — formula walkthroughs and assumptions behind the 22 free tools. Every figure on this page is composed from the live listing database or the West Bengal rate sheet that powers the free calculator suite, and it is refreshed when the underlying data changes. If a number here disagrees with a brochure, trust the listing — brochures are marketing, listings are RERA-linked data.
