Is there a nice way to out right ask someone to move? A family member (single, and making 75k or more a year) is living rent free in a house and won't get the hint from his parents that another family needs to use the house (family of four, dealing with a bit of finacial problems/military disability). He is bragging about getting ready to buy a huge tv and surround system (6k-cash) and this other family can't even put food on the table. Parents have hinted to move out and so has family. The guy is trashing the place, and not keeping the long standing tradition of the house, improve, fix, and renew. (The house belonged to the great grandfather who has passed)
Any suggestions as to how to ask this guy to leave without making him mad, and still make him see that he would be helping a family get back on their feet. Without being tacky.

The single guy and the family do not live in the same house. They live nearly an hour apart.

After Leon died (great grandfather) it became the responsiblity of Chester (grandfather to the family, father to the single guy) Leon said that the house should be for who ever needs it. So it went to one of Chesters sons, who bought a house two years ago. That is when M (single guy) moved in. At the time the other family was military so it wasn't offered to them. No one but M lives in the house and only house sustaining bill he has is property tax due twice yearly and utilities which are still in Leons name. Hope that didn't confuse anyone and shed a little light on the subject. There was no will and nothing in paper to say this is how I want it. And Chester has sole responsiblity on the house (only child of Leon)
