getting rent deposit back?
Answers:
You need to find out if your deposit was transferd. If not, get it back and then give it to the new owner. There are a lot of land lord/tenant laws that vary from state to state. You can go to your local library to find out yours.

You get your deposit when you end your lease. Usually landlords take out money to fix repairs and things that have happened while you were the tenant, and then you get the remainder. Your old landlord should've also given you a deposit when you ended your lease at your old place.
The deposit will most likely pass between owners, but the amount can change as soon as your lease is up. The new owners might want a larger deposit and/or a raise in your rent.
Of course, he has too. If I were you I would put a lein on the property for the amount he ows you, because once he sells it he may become hard to find and the new owner is not responsible.
Prepare for a legal fight if the landlord negates.
Yes, get your deposit back.
The reason someone is buying the house is because.... they want the house!! (now, why else would you buy something, girl?).
If your landlord wants to sell the house before ur lease is up, you have every right to get your deposit back (unless you've seriously trashed the place, or not lived up to your end of the the contract, etc.).
I believe the old landlord must either refund the deposit to you or transfer it to the new owner.
if the new owner still wants you to rent he will in return for purchasing the house/ appartment he will hold the deposit until you move, then he will give the deposit to you if you leave the place in good condition!
