This lecture provides a detailed look at the effects of the different LEED ratings and certification levels on office building valuation across the U.S. and Chicago. The existence of a sizable and continuously increasing number of LEED office properties across the U.S. allows for an in-depth analysis of green office properties for the first time.

Two aspects of LEED office properties are studied in the U.S.:
 •  their spatial distribution based on their ratings and certification levels
 •  their total assessed values, when controlling for various property
    characteristics

The presentation will also offer a case-study analysis of LEED office property trends in downtown Chicago. The case study will analyze transaction pricing and frequency of LEED office properties.
