Re: Evicting tenant with option to buy
It depends on the contents of the contracts between you and the tenant. Many contracts provide that a breach of the lease ends the right to purchase (the Option), but some do not.
Prior to taking any action against the tenant, you should contact an attorney to review the contract and advise you regarding the removal of the tenant.
