Title Insurance

In your state, who customarily purchases (pays for) the title insurance policy, seller or buyer?

And in the scope of investment property bargains, ie distressed sales, cloudy titles, etc, does anyone these days still buy real estate without title insurance?

I'm in FL and seller typically pays, as long as they are choosing the title company or attorney.

Pretty sure there's no title insurance if property is bought at auction or tax deed sale but not positive.
