The sale of a house does not terminate a rental agreement, but the rental agreement is with the former owner and not with the new owner, unless otherwise agreed in the sale. The former owner of the house is liable to the tenants for damages, unless otherwise stipulated in the rental agreement.
You will have to evict the tenants to get them out, and they can sue the former owner.
I don't think anyone would sell a house without some sort of transfer or termination of the lease.

Does resident owe rent to nonresident in 'tenants in common' house?
A resident does not usually owe rent to a non resident in a house owned by "tenants in common" if the resident is one of the tenants. When a house is owned by "tenants in common", all tenants share use of the house or property. If one chooses not to use it, that is his business. (Of course, what is usual may not apply in your local area. There are also ways to end a joint tenancy.)

Can you keep a house if one owner dies but the other is living?
look up joint tenants and tenants in common.Depends on how it was deeded
In Pennsylvania if a house is deeded to both divorced parents and one dies without a will and two children are involved and only one is legal age what happens to the house?
Since the parents are divorced, the house is owned as Joint Tenants (not Tenants in the Entirity), so as Joint Tenants, the surviving parent would own half the house with the two children owning the other half. If the house is owned as Tenants in Common, which isn't as likely, then when one person dies, the other person gets the entire house.

How do I find an application for buying a House
If buying a house in Queensland with rental tenants in place on a contract can the buyer break the lease if they wish to move into the property?
It's best to discuss this with the realtor or a lawyer, but the usual protocol is an agreement at the time you purchase the home and sign the papers. If you have signed nothing to indicate the tenants stay on, then you have to give them sufficient notice to find another rental place to live. Once you buy the house and property it's yours to do with as you choose, but read that fine print and be sure you didn't sign anything pertaining to the tenants staying on at your new home.
