Under California law, landlords must have proper cause to end a lease early. Reasons like wanting to sell or move into the property themselves are acceptable, but ending it for no reason or on a whim is prohibited.

Nothing prevents you from selling the home. You do NOT have to evict the tenants to list the home for sale. There may even be buyers that want to step into an investment and become a landlord (many a landlord has posted on reddit that they bought a home with an existing tenant).
Anyone who meets the legal requirements can potentially claim adverse possession, including neighbors, strangers, tenants, or even squatters. The key is that the claimant must possess the property in a manner that is open, notorious, continuous, hostile, and exclusive.
The letter to notify a tenant of the sale of the property should be short and concise and include information such as: Identifying information including the date, owner name, tenant name, and property address. Notice that property is being sold and that the lease and deposit will transfer to the new owner.
In California, a property owner can sell a property even if it is currently leased. The lease remains in effect, and the new owner must honor the terms of the existing lease. The tenant has the right to continue living in the property under the same conditions agreed upon with the original owner.
A landlord can assign his leases to a new buyer of his building. Likewise, a tenant may be able to assign his lease if he needs to relocate. Find out how to assign your lease and what you can do to protect yourself when doing so.
If the timing works, or if you cannot come to some sort of arrangement with the tenant, you might want to wait until the tenant's lease is up before you put the place on the market. Notify the tenant in the manner specified in the lease that you are planning to sell and will not be renewing the lease.
Under California law, a new property owner is generally required to honor the terms of existing leases. This means that your lease agreement, including rent, lease duration, and other conditions, remains in effect despite the change in ownership.
