Since the lease appears to end in 3 months, why not just give 3 months notice to them and say you want to have them leave by that date? Unless there is a reason to avoid speaking with them, is that not feasible? Call them, say the lease ends on this date and you want the unit back. That gives a lot of notice to them to find another place and puts the thought in their mind that it's time to leave.
I'm not an expert in the small print, but if there is push back for them to stay, then you guys have a lot of time to work something out and maybe at that point you can consult with legal aid.
But seems to me you have plenty of time to at least tell them of your plans to get the unit back (just say you are moving in, or selling?). If you are worried that if you give too much notice that your tenant will start destroying that place, well then you really do have reason to push for them to leave and protect your asset.
