Florida Deal Analysis (Due Diligence) HELP THE NEWBIE!

Hey guys, quick question. I came across a seller who is in distress. I am looking at an ARV of $400K and they are ok with letting the property go at $200K. They have a mortgage on the property of around $75K and are behind one payment.

Question, how do I do my due diligence to see if there are any Hidden liens? Second mortgages? Judgements? Litigation? Etc...

I had someone tell me to use the county clerks office and other city sites etc...I had another person tell me to simply make a FOIA (public records request) for all the info.. please advise :)
