Buying a property with tenant in place

I read the other posts about this matter, so I'll ask directly my unanswered question:

How to I assume the lease contract in place? Do I change the name of the landlord and have the tenants initial and me signing at the end, or do I create a new lease? How does it work?

Thank you all in advance!
