I have tenants in my rental property and their lease has run out. Do I have to evict them to get them out at this point if they won't leave voluntarily?

Depends on what your lease stated - did it give them the option of staying on a month to month basis?

You don't have to evict them yet, but you have to give them proper written notice that you want them to vacate and that you are terminating their tenancy.
