Eviction on the newly acquired property

[Moncy Samuel]

Hello Bp We recently acquired a quadplex and in the closing table, came to know that the seller filed for eviction on one of the tenant as she default the rent payment. We completed the acquisition. Because the previous landlord filed for eviction, she is continuing the process and the court date is mar 6. As new owner, do we need to be there in court ? As a new landlord, should we call the tenant and ask for March rent ?
