Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Illinois

I am guessing you mean you already signed the agreement for deed, rather than the warranty deed. The answer to your question depends on what is in that agreement you signed. You need to contact a real estate attorney in your area, not only for the present problem, but to ensure there are not other, even bigger, problems in the future.

It sounds like you took a risk that an attorney would have advised against. More would have to be known about the situation to provide a firm answer.

Your best hope is that they intend to be out and that waiting a few days will resolve it. Otherwise, you would have to explore what their rights are and any bases for eviction. More likely than not, it will now be up to you, not the seller, to address any concerns.

Your question is confusing in that it refers to a Contract for Deed, as well as a Warranty Deed and suggests that as a buyer you signed the deed, which is unusual. In any event, the documents should be promptly considered by an area real estate closing attorney. Hopefully, there is some assurance of clear title.
