My landlord is selling his rental, the house we live in right now. We are currently seeking a mortgage as well. No, we don't want to buy our current rental. The situation is that my landlord has already listed the house for sale and his agent has listed me as the point of contact to schedule appointments. I didn't think this would be a big deal but we are being overwhelmed with calls for showings. I am trying to figure out if I just invoke the clause in my lease that states that he can't require us to show until 60 days from the lease termination date (Apirl 1, 2013) or could I possibly get something in return from the landlord. Anyone been in this situation? I am open to ALL ideas and suggestions...

I was just thinking about the rent reduction. Maybe $500 since our rent is $1300...
Absolutely you need to be reimbursed due to the inconvenience this is causing you. Most state landlord tenant acts require the tenant to enjoy their home in peace. First; notify the realtor that you should NOT be listed as the point of contact. 2nd; notify your landlord that he he may not show the house except for 1 day per week; or between the hours of x to y... set clear boundaries with him. If he insists that you have to let them show the house then send a letter certified mail which offers the reduced rent for your cooperation.
This sounds rediculous. You shouldn't be in this situation.
