Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Iowa

If I had a verbal rental agreement with a friend to live in my house and then I gave him a verbal 30 day eviction notice and he verbally waived that 30 days and said he would be out in 2 weeks does that hold up in court? if the two weeks are up can I now get the locks changed? I am fearful of what this guy will do to me, my property and house as a retallation for being told a couple weeks ago to move out.
