Hi Liaoyu,

Generally, leased property cannot be sold off to some other person until and unless the lease period is over. But if the landlord has taken any mortgage which is left to be paid and he's unable to do so, then he can sell it or the lender might sell it through foreclosure. In that case, tenants have to move out and they can claim a certain amount of money.

It depends. If you have a lease to buy or a land contract it may be possible. It should say in your contract what rights your lease gives you to the property. There are many ways to transfer a property to someone and it is not uncommon for a person to hold a lease with the right to purchase by a certain date. In this situation you could sell only if you do so in your allowed time.
