Tenant Trying to Squat in Apartment

Hello,

I help manage an apartment building for my parents in the (not-rent-controlled part of) San Francisco Bay Area.

We gave a woman a six-month, end-of-lease notice (my parents were extra nice and gave her more than enough time to find a new place).  Well, the six months are almost up and she's still putting up a fight about having to leave.  Granted, it's a nice neighborhood and my parents charge low rent, so I can see why.

But we need to remodel that unit, and my (elderly) parents want me to move in there and get more involved in the management of the building ASAP.

What are my options in making sure this lady is out by the end of the six months?  I believe, since I'm a relative of the owners, I can more easily have her removed if I need to move in.  Is this correct?

Thanks!
