New property owner with complicated eviction
I recently closed on my first multi family property in Worcester MA. I purchased it with an owner occupied loan, and the property was sold to me fully rented. My second floor tenant is a TAW, I closed on November 30th 2020, and that day issued him a notice to quit that I would not be renewing his month to month agreement. Being close to the holidays and with covid going on I also offered him $2000 and not to pay rent so he'd have extra money to find a new apartment. Per my loan agreement I need to be living on the property within 60 days, here where are a the end of January and he know has changed his mind and decided not to leave the property and also not to pay rent. His job has not been affected by covid and paying rent is not an issue for him. Is there any legal action I can take to get him out of the property? None of our agreements where in writing it was all verbal, a definite mistake on my part.
