You owe for non-payment of rent. The question is who do you pay? The new owner and management may have the right to collect as part of the sale. Otherwise, the previous owner and management own the right to collect from you. This is not a dispute which would allow the debt to be removed from your credit report.

If somebody has a judgment against you you need to pay.... be careful who you pay.most likely you will still owe the old owners.. not the new owners and they need to know where you live to contact you.

You still have the debt and legal obligation to the same entity unless notified otherwise. Paying it should be reflected on your credit report and time, after payment, will make it go away.
