Tax deed in Florida

[Jean Norton]

I was the high bid on a tax deed in a condo-hotel in Florida. I'm not really sure how that happened since there is a significant lien both from the condo association and the mortgage company. Both liens disappear since I acquired the property via tax deed auction.

I know I must perform a quiet action to get clear title so here's where I need some clarificatification:

1. Why the other lien holders didn't buy the tax lien is are real puzzler to me.

2. I want to move forward with a good relationship with the owner's association, but I will not pay the back association fees.

3. There's got to be some surprise waiting for me that I just haven't thought of yet.

Can anyone with experience in purchasing condo tax deeds in Florida shed a light on what I am to expect?
