CYes — a tax deed provides perfect title with all warranties
DNo — the original owner can reclaim the property at any time

A Florida tax deed sale may not extinguish all liens — particularly federal liens (IRS, federal courts). Buyers at tax deed sales often need to file a quiet title action to obtain insurable title and clear all possible claims.
