Hi Snoop,
Time to get these people out.
Serve your 3 or 5 day notice and proceed with the eviction process.You don't mention what state you're in as statutes vary.It's not that complicated in many states.

ANd there are limits to the number of people allowable in an apartment.
What you need to do is check out HUD guidelines,which usually allow 2 people per br. although other factors may play into it;sq. footage,livable space,layout etc.
Also check out your local housing codes. They have their limits too.
Uh,the tenant doesn't need to sign your notice.Serve it,notarize it and file it to begin the eviction is all you do.
This is not an unusual situation.It's happened to many new owners .

These tenants sound like real winners.I wouldn't want them.
Best of LL luck.
