Auction Bought / Past owner refuse to move out

[Maria Sophia]

Hello BP Community -

I have recently bought a property through Wayne County Auction - (Detroit, MI)

Located in Highland Park Michigan.

A Duplex!

Occupied by Past Owner in one unit, the other unit is empty.

I have hired a property Management company to complete eviction -

Upon receiving Eviction notice, Past Owner / Tenant went to the Property Management office and insisted that she still owns the property, refused to sign a lease, and stated that she won’t pay rent for her own property.

Property Management company stated that this will not be resolved without going in front of a judge and told me that it can be filed at the end of the month.

How long with this process take?

Suggestions?

Should I hire a real estate attorney?
