Not unless the lease specifically says that you can.
A lease IS a contract. If you did not sign it, you do not have a lease.
Was the lease supposed to be a month-to-month lease or for a year or longer?
In most states the landlord has to honor the terms of the lease until that lease ends, even if he plans to sell property.
It depends on what you mean by a lease: if a written lease is signed by both parties for a specific term, then the terms cannot be changed without mutual consent. Even if an oral lease any changes would have to be with your consent. If you do not consent to any change of the terms of the lease you can refuse to sign it and move out.
YES! It happened to me. Generally unless stated on your lease, the new owners must respect your lease until the term is up then you can sign a new one with them.

The vehicle was repossessed for non-payment of the lease, correct? You still owe all the money to the lender, even though you no longer have the car. You signed a written agreement with the lender promising to pay a certain amount each month for how ever many months were in the lease. You breached that written contract by not paying the monthly lease - Just because the car is taken away from you does not absolve your financial responsibility to pay for the remaining parts of the lease.

No. Once a cosigner has signed the contract the only way they can be removed from the responsibility is a new agreement being made without the assistance of the original cosigner.
yes, it feels even better than the sex 9 months earlier
In general, states limit the right of a plaintiff to enforce a contract for real property rights (including a lease), unless there is a document signed by the defendant. Your particular state may interpret a lease as a contract that could be enforced if the husband actually acted as if there were a lease, even if he didn't personally sign it, but there could be complicated issues of fact and evidence worth discussing with an attorney.
Here is more details to my question.... There was a verbal agreement between my landlord and I that dogs are allowed in our building. However my landlord now says no dogs are allowed after we have just signed the lease for our 2nd term. We were planning on getting a dog but now seem torn because we signed this lease with full intentions of getting a dog this month. On the lease there is nothing mentioning a dog being forbidden can the landlord do this? note that there are several dogs in my apartment building including 2 Boston terriers across the hall and a Labrador down the hall. (note the 2 Boston Terriers moved in a month after I signed my lease)
