Asking for some input!

I just bought my first duplex 4 days ago and having some issues with the tenants that I inherited. It showed on the lease that only one women was on it and could only have someone stay over seven nights per month. Three days after I bought it, her boyfriends sister is now moving without telling me. I have been trying to get a hold of the tenant but they are blowing me off.

Should I go over there and kick them out? Do I write up a new lease saying that three people can live there but they all have to be on a lease and then raise the rent on them? Do I call the police if someone is living on my property without signing a lease?

Thanks in advice for any help!

@Bryon Andrews thanks for the advice Bryon. I would like to keep in touch in the future about house hacking!

Hey All,

I’m a Newbie to the BP world and looking to get started. I’m looking for some help on my first duplex purchase, basically looking for some direction. Ideally trying to find an agent/investor in the Minneapolis, MN area. If you guys have any suggestions or advice on agents and tips on the first purchase, I would love to here them. My plan is to house hack my first duplex and grow from there. Willing to put in the work towards financial freedom. Thanks in advance for any advice and help!
