If you purchased from the party who purchased at the tax sale you probably would have received a SWD because the Grantor would not have wanted to warrant anything other than the Grantor's actions.While I'd be surprised if a county employee opined on the status of your title, there may be a difference between having a clear title (one without a current challenge) and insurable title (one free of significant possible risk of being challenge in the future).
