Triplex under contract, full occupancy, want to purchase under FHA (need a tenant removed)

Hi,

A few facts:

- Triplex under contract

- 100% occupancy

- FHA loan secured

- 100% tenants on month to month leases

- Due Diligence stage is almost complete.

The questions:

- The tenants are long term and I think that any hope of getting a security deposit from them is low. I would like to live in the unit that needs rehab the most (currently renting very low, $330 / month). I was thinking that instead of using the eviction process, I could pay him a month of rent in order for him to leave quietly. How do I put this under contract or is it simply verbal?

- At what point does the eviction process start while the house is under contract? I am still in the due diligence stage and I did not want start an eviction process, find out I didn't want the house, and then have to stop the eviction process.
