If you want in the house, give them time, offer to hire movers, return deposit. All that probably comes out of your pocket though.
He doesn't have a deposit to return. It the tenants did pay a deposit it would be in the hands of the previous owner, not the OP.
That is the whole issue here. The lease is between the tenant and the old owner, not the new owner (the OP).
As others have said, unless the lease is recorded, it doesn't mean anything once the property ownership changes hands.

I understand that, that's why I said pay them to leave. That's all assuming it's recorded.

We had a tenant in place when we bought, and the old owners gave us the deposit when we bought the place.
Though I guess that was at the descretion of the owner, sine the lease was not recorded - and we had indicated interest in keeping the tenant (until we discovered the owner lied to us about how much rent they were collecting.)
