Rent control (and tenant protections in general) help ensure that this does not happen. My landlord can't raise my rent more than x% a year, so I won't have to leave my apartment just because he's found a richer tenant. I'm quite secure in my housing barring a full-on condo conversion of the entire building with no further renting allowed.
