Lease is up for tenant and I am becoming the new homeowner. It’s getting close to closing time and the tenants are still in the property. What options do I have to get the tenant out? I have a closing date on the contract and I also have furniture and movers coming soon.

Thank you so much!

@Russell Brazil

Yes I sent a copy of a contractor estimate totaling water damage worth $20,000.00 way before the deadline. I also sent a cancellation on the 7th. Everything you stated in your response I have done that’s what I’m confused about.

@Deanna Opgenort

Yes we did we sent over cancellation beforehand.

I have a mortgage contingency and it says if I don’t obtain a mortgage approval by the ninth then the contract is voided and I should receive my earnest deposit back.

I wish I could just talk to them on my own defense by talking to them directly but I guess I have to let my attorney do everything which I thought was weird because if I could talk to them directly i feel like this issue would’ve been already taken care of.

I know I was so disappointed in the outcome of him not being able to meet with me about this issue for about two weeks it was like we were playing phone tag back-and-forth.

I am located in New York so I will have to look up the codes for getting the earnest money deposit back. I will talk to my lawyer about trying to hold the seller from selling the property until he releases it because I don’t think it’s fair that he can’t resell the property with the earnest deposit not being settled yet.
