Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida
If i purchase a tax deed at an Auction in Florida. Does that clear all other lien holders including 1st lien for example mortgages? Or can the mortgage company still come after me for what previous owner owed?

You do not own free of all liens. You are subject to foreclosure AFTER the deed issues. It takes years from purchase of a tax certificate until you are allowed to get a deed.
