Getting a Tenant out during Covid

[Cass Jeanette]

Good afternoon, needing some advice.  I recently bought a home with a tenant who was willing to sign and pay a new lease--she was month to month with her prior landlord, but after she set a time she kept saying she could come 30min later, and finally stopped responding and did not show up.

So, I am looking to see if i can get her to leave the unit. I want to avoid eviction as 1. Covid, and 2, to keep things on good terms esp since its near the holidays.

I have seen feedback on cash for keys. How is that working during covid? How much would you offer?

Somethings to note, prior landlord was her relatives, she put down no security deposit and was paying 525 a month.  My rent was to put it up to 750, but was offering her things like free wifi. Etc to offset cost.

At this point though, i would rather her leave. Its my first home, closed 11 days ago, and the home just happened to be a duplex so originally I wasnt planning to be a landlord. I appreciate all advice given, save face that I shouldnt have carried through with the offer with her in it. Learned my lesson there!
