Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in New York

I've worked for the building owner for 8 years and lived in the basement of the building. About a month ago, he sold the building without noticing me about it. Now, a new owner wants me to move out as soon as possible. What are my rights are? How much time do I legally have to move out? Can I get any compensation?
