Sellers Agent: Call their broker. Very good chance they will have the agent get you the info fairly quick.
Your Agent: Call their broker. Explain to them how unprofessional you feel this is, how you will never use this agent again, and how it reflects very poorly on the company and you will be letting everyone who will listen know of the awful experience you had with this company. Unless it is a lousy smalltime company, the broker will have the agent help you get this info.
Thanks I'll try the seller's broker. My agent for this deal is also a sizable broker servicing Cleveland so not a lot of recourse with them except the loss of repeat business from me if this kind of response continues.
Again, my PM is working on this but admitted the irregularities are complicating the process so I'm trying to be proactive and see what information I can gather myself. Thanks so far with the feedback!

tldr; Need thoughts re evicting someone when I don't know their name.
I purchased a Cleveland duplex with two tenants ~2 months ago. Since this was the first of a series of purchases I've made, I failed to ask for the tenant's information during the purchase process -- that's on me. Since we closed, the upper unit tenant refuses to communicate or respond to my new PM wrt their name, lease status or any other detail we've requested to make for a smooth transition. We're now trying to evict them since they don't pay rent but my PM is struggling since there is no names for whoever is living there so we don't know WHO we're evicting.
I requested whatever information is available from the former seller's agent but they don't reply. I requested the information from the agent who represented me and they refused to help unless I switch PM services to them.
How do you evict someone you don't know who they are? Just trying to recover from a misstep of not asking for this information up front.
Advice/suggestions?
