Owners can be assured that renovations to adjacent properties will be done in a way that fits in with their property as well as the rest of the neighborhood. Over the long term, this can drive higher property values, since historic neighborhoods are finite resources that are highly desirable to an increasing number of people. Also, many of the zoning variances that are required under the current system would be streamlined under a historic district.

Individual property protection, also known as an opt-in restrictive covenant, is a legal contract entered into by a group of owners, usually in suburban subdivisions, to enforce rules of consistency on a neighborhood. Restrictive covenants are usually much more strict and overarching than historic districts and are often enforced by lawsuits between neighbors. A Local Historic District on the other hand is an overlay to city zoning codes that becomes part of the building permit approval process.

Dozens of academic studies have demonstrated that historic districts increase property values relative to comparable neighborhoods that are unprotected. A local historic district provides assurance to prospective buyers that their investment will be protected.
