Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Iowa

New onwership of a rental property

I have made a home of my apartment that I have lived in for 15 years and now someone has baught the building, and is remodeling it so they want all the tenants out. I have a lease and I have been informed that the old lease carries over from the previous owner to the new owner meaning that I now have a contract with someone that I have never met. Is this correct or do I need to sign a new lease with the new owners in order to maintain my residency.
