Green office buildings continue to outperform the total office property sector, according to figures released by the Property Council and IPD Australia.

The IPD Australian Green Property Index showed an annual total return of 10.6 per cent for Green Star rated, and 9.9 per cent for NABERS rated, office assets for 2012.

The total office property sector, comprised of rated and non-rated assets, reported an annual return of 9.7 per cent.
