Tenant doesn't let me in my house
Tenant had a lease but it expired 1 year ago. He pays monthly rent. He told me verbally that he was leaving the house the 9th of next month. When I went to the house to see if there were any damages, his father did not let me in. He said that since they had paid this months rent that they were the owners. Not me. That I could not see the house until the 9th. I have their deposit on my possession. They pay the rent every 1st day of the month. Today is the 23rd. I want them out by the first and want to subtract from the deposit any damages to the house. What legal steps do I need to take to get them out of the house the 1st?
