Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Missouri

lease of apartment

I have a lease that was signed by both the tenant and the owner who has since sold the property to another party. Now the new owner says that the lease isn't valid even though when they took ownership they sent out a letter saying that all leases were valid and would not change.
