What happens if my Awendaw tenant will not leave before closing?

An Awendaw tenant who will not leave before closing needs to be addressed in the purchase contract itself, since a buyer cannot start eviction proceedings before taking title, and a seller cannot deliver a property vacant if the contract requires that but the tenant refuses to go. Options include a delayed closing, a possession holdback, or the buyer agreeing to take the property with the tenant in place. Brian Beatty and the closing attorney build that language in before the contract is signed, not after.
