Will you inherit back taxes on a property in Florida?
It depends entirely on which kind of sale you are looking at, and the two are easy to mix up. Government REO (HUD, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, GSA, CWS) conveys with clear, insurable title and the seller settles past-due property taxes at closing. County tax sales (tax-defaulted, sheriff, judicial) are the opposite: the buyer can inherit senior liens, face a redemption period, and get title that is not insurable without a quiet-title action. We label which of the two every listing falls into on its page.
For the tax-sale side, Florida is a hybrid state. The county sells a deed or certificate that the former owner can still undo by paying you back with interest during the redemption window. The former owner then has 2 years to reclaim the property. Title here usually needs a quiet-title action before it is insurable or resellable.
We do not estimate what a specific property owes. Lien and back-tax amounts live in county records and only a title search returns the real number, so any figure produced without one is a guess you should not bid against.

- Can I filter Florida real estate auctions by distance from my ZIP code?
- Yes. Most surplus is collected in person, so distance from you usually matters more than the state a lot sits in. In the GovAuctions feed you can enter your ZIP and set a radius of 25, 50, 100, or 200 miles, and the filter applies across every indexed platform at once rather than one marketplace at a time. Results sort by pickup distance, so a radius search also catches real estate just over the Florida state line that browsing by state alone would hide.
