Did I miss something?

So I live in an apartment complex with my roommate in a 2bed1bath, and my roommate plans to move on. I heard from my landlord that she has a 1bed1bath coming up in a few months and that the weekend-landlord (some older guy) would show me the room today. I arrived at the landlord's office just outside the door and I saw an elderly couple talking with him. I was there a few minutes before the scheduled showing and so I sat down on one of the chairs just outside the office.
Then my phone vibrates. I look at it and I recognize the number is coming from the landlord's room, and it's the weekend landlord calling me, not recognizing I was here already. I walk in and said "You called?" He then told me "Sorry, the room just got sold."
I'm aware I might sound a little crazy, but isn't something wrong here? I know that was an elderly couple who just signed the contract, but what if they have bad credit? Don't landlords normally check for that sort of thing? Shouldn't they have a nice house bought with their retirement funds?
Somehow I feel like I was gypped. Literally no chance to even look at the dang room.
