Eviction? Bensalem Bucks County PA

[Matt Daley]

Found out a tenant passed away in the one of my units. Went over to the property and tenants "friend" was there cleaning it up. She was in fact there and documented when he passed away. She was told by executor she could have any of the items that were in the apartment. She said should we get them by Friday. Now she says she staying there and theres nothing we can do about it. Executor is terminating the month to month lease. I believe executor already turned off the electric as it seems she has an extension cord running in the hallway electric. I am assuming gas will be shut off very shortly as well as th executor put it in motion.

Is step 1 going to the police with the lease and say she is trespassing? Do I have to evict since she is NOT on the lease. Assuming I have to deal with her as a squatter. Is it illegal if I just go in and change the locks the next time she leaves.

Has anyone dealt with this specifically in Bensalem Township of Bucks County PA? It is a 9 unit building.
