Purchasing duplex with 2 tenants / Want to get them out asap
Hey BP,
I am purchasing a duplex with closing in 3 weeks and I plan on doing a full rehab but need the tenants out asap. I obviously can not evict them during this time but would be more than willing to pay 1 months rent somewhere else for each of them. Does this sound like the best option during this time? Thank you!

If you wanted the property empty, why didn't you buy it empty? Make the Seller give them notice so the property is vacant when you close.
Because you failed to take that step, you will inherit the Tenants and now have to serve them proper notice and follow the law to get them out. If they refuse, you've just bought yourself a problem.
