Generally speaking, as long as the landlord has legal control over the property, the rent is still due him and he may continue collecting it. However, most Housing Authorities prohibit landlords from becoming in default of their mortgage. Generally speaking, if the Housing Authority tells you to continue to pay your rent, you must do so or risk eviction- And possibly the loss of your voucher.

Can landlord sell house that is being rented?

No. A lease is a legally binding contract that runs with a property, regardless of who owns the property. Unless there was a provision in the lease that specifically gave the landlord the right to break the lease upon sale of the property, you can compel the landlord and the new owner of the property to honor your lease. If you find that either the previous or new owner of the property is refusing to honor your lease, contact a landlord-tenant law attorney. A listing is available in your local phone book.
