If a landlord puts up a house for sale that is being rented, does he/she have to lower rent?

Toots asked:
I’m renting a room in a house that is on the market. The landlords recently raised our rent. I heard that it may be illegal to raise the rent on a house that is for sale, but I am unable to find any proof of it. Any information would be great.
Thanks in advance!

It is not illegal. If it is a month to month lease he can change it every month if he wants to.
Good luck to you.
