Just closed on a double- current tenants already a problem

[Nicole McKinley]

Hi Everyone,

I am VERY new to all of this.  We just purchased a double and my daughter will be renting the upstairs.  We closed a couple days ago and the current tenants were month to month with the last owner.  They are refusing to speak with us.  We never got their contact information or keys to their unit... ugh.  I left them a copy of the new lease to sign and they will not respond.  This is turning into a nightmare.  How do I get them out?  Do I start the eviction process? 

Thank you,

Nicole
