Does anybody have any general information on tax lien, deeds, and notes? I am new to investing and don't know much regarding these subjects. I live in Miami Florida if that helps.

I do all three, but if I lived in southern Florida, I would only concentrate on learning about notes. I think If one invests in tax sales it should be locally and I think Florida's days of hitting home runs is over. In liens you tie up your money for a long time just to have the property auctioned off. That seems crazy to me. In the deed sales, properties are bid up so high. If you think the Florida market still has appreciation left then it's speculating and not investing to me.

Performing notes you can get cash flow right away. In non performing notes you can get greater returns but with greater risks. If interested in learning about notes and especially non performing firsts, I highly recommend viewing Scott Carson's videos on Vimeo and his Monday Night Note webinars.
