Full question:
The landlord that we lease this townhouse from has put the townhouse up for sale. Does this break our lease as we are looking for another place to live just in case they sale this place. Will we still be responsible for the remainder of that lease?

Answer:
Unless your lease includes a clause that allows you to terminate it due to the sale, you are still responsible for the lease term. Generally, if the new owner takes over the property, they must honor the existing lease terms.
