Why Sustainable Real Estate Projects Deliver Better Returns
Green real estate delivers strong financial returns, with LEED-certified properties commanding up to 20% higher rents and cutting energy costs by about 25%. Sustainable buildings not only use less water and cut operating costs, but also maintain higher occupancy rates and sell for up to 16% more, according to the Urban Land Institute’s 2024 Emerging Trends report. Developers are now focusing on energy efficiency, water conservation, eco-friendly materials and waste reduction to meet investor expectations and market demands.
