Tenant Refusing to leave after non-renewal time is up.

[Antonio Bavaro]

Hi everyone,

This is my first time having to evict a tenant and I want to do it the proper way. I purchase the property last month knowing I would have to evict one of the tenants due to the fact he wasn't paying. When I purchased it he payed me the rent for the first month. I Posted his notice that I would not be renewing his lease at the beginning of next month. He was on a month to month so I gave him a proper 30 day notice, on the 1st of the month. I'm not renewing the lease because I want to upgrade the unit. Can I evict him at any point after the 30 days are up? It's a tenancy at sufferance I believe, also the property is in Tampa Florida.

Thank you so much.
