My mother signed the deed of her home over to my husband and I after we paid the taxes to her home the had been foreclosed on by the city for failure to pay said taxes. The problem is the house also came with a sister and 3 children. The sister is nothing but trouble who thinks the world owes her. How do I go about evicting her in the state of ma.

Contact the county sheriff's office. They'll be able to advise you as to proper procedure. Generally a 30-day notice is required.

I found this section under MA law to be interesting: "Do I need a reason to evict my tenant?

Yes and No. If the reason for eviction is a violation of a lease term or nonpayment of rent, this reason must be spelled out in both the Notice to Quit and on the Summary Process Summons and Complaint. In all other cases, while the substantive law of the Commonwealth may not always require a reason for termination of a tenancy, the rules of Summary Process require a reason for eviction. The reason might be simply that a tenant is holding against the right of the landlord after the tenancy has been terminated."

The forms are available at stationery stores.

Does your sister have a lease? Is she up to date with the rent?

If you wish to live in the house, or such, also since she is a teannant and if not on a lease, you merely start charging her rent, *it will have to be fair to what she is renting** then if she does not pay, you can evict for non payment.
