If they haven't responded to your three day notice, it's eviction time.
It's usually better to attempt to talk to the previous owner, find out their plans, offer cash for keys if appropriate. If they are planning on moving, explain that you are proceeding with an eviction, but will drop it as soon as they are out. If they do not appear cooperative, I'd use an attorney for the eviction. Less stressful for you, it will be done correctly and shouldn't cost more than $500.
Always proceed under the assumption that the owners will not be leaving. You can always stop an eviction, but you do not want to start the clock running AFTER the previous owners did not move out as promised.
