Options to get a tenant out

[David Neely]

Good morning,

BLUF: I have a SFR that is starting its final year in a 5 year lease. However, I'd like to move into the house as my primary residence this summer (due to school year timing, etc)

I'm familiar with a lot of the options to get a tenant out like cash-for-keys, etc. My question is this: if the tenant refuses to leave voluntarily prior to lease expiration, are there any legal options at my disposal? Or do I just have to wait it out?

Property is located in NC.

Thanks in advance!!

@David Neely yep, i'd get a copy and read it from start to finish and then confer with your PM.
