The great tenants stayed and the undesirable tenants (a stripper with night visitors, those with pit bulls, those who paid rent late, etc.) moved out on their own because it was uncomfortable for them to stay and abide by our property rules.In the springtime we raised the rents a modest amount and had no push back.

What is an A now may be a C in ten years and a total ghetto in 15 years.If the neighborhood changes for the worse, you may not be able to rent the house or sell it at any price in 17 years.Or just the houses next to your house may change making your house undesirable to rent or sell.
