New here, simple question:Rate of Appreciation?

If I paid 113,000 for a house four years ago that is now worth 135 how do I calculate my rate of appreciation? I can’t find a calculator anywhere on the internet.
Thanks

use a Hewlett Packard hp 12c which has been around 20+ years( i still have and use mine).

PV = $113,000
FV = $135,000
Term + 4 Years

IRR (internal rate of return) = approx. 4.54% per year. FMRR may be slightly different.

You may also use simple math to find the total return.

135-113=22/113=19.47%

It increased in value almost 20%
