Capital growth (also called a capital gain) is the increase in the value of a property over time. It is the difference between the purchase price/cost and the sale price of the property.
Example:
| Property purchase price on 1 January 2020: | R2 000 000 |
| Property sales price on 1 January 2022: | R2 500 000 |
| Capital growth: | R500 000 |
