Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California

Apartment leases and ownership transfer

If I have a lease with an apartment complex and they change ownership and raise my rent, does that invalidate the lease I had? If I pay the higher rent does that automatically put me on a new lease? What am I responsible for?
