Application for existing tenant new property

[Vaughan Bryan]

Purchased a new rental property in MA and existing tenant does not want to complete application. So I can generate a lease or TAW agreement. Is it a requirement in Ma that a tenant landlord agreement be in place? Is there a way to serve an agreement if the tenant refuses to sign? This way I can have something in place that if there is a breach I can start eviction process based on that, breach. Thanks
