Free parcel data in Florida
Yes. Florida publishes a free statewide parcel layer: Florida Statewide Cadastral, from Florida Geographic Information Office (data: Florida Department of Revenue, Property Tax Oversight). Coverage: All 67 counties. It's a public ArcGIS REST service with no API key or login.

Notes for GIS users
CO_NO is the Florida DOR county number (11 = Alachua ... 77 = Washington, alphabetical; 47 = Leon), NOT FIPS. About 97k features have CO_NO = 0. CO_NO is an integer field. PARCEL_ID and PARCELNO matched in the test record.
How to use it
- QGIS: Layer > Data Source Manager > ArcGIS REST Server, add a connection with the service URL (the endpoint above without the
final
/0), then add the layer. Filter to your area before exporting. - ArcGIS Pro: Add Data > Data From Path, paste the endpoint.
- Direct query: append
/query?geometry=LON,LAT&geometryType=esriGeometryPoint&inSR=4326&spatialRel=esriSpatialRelIntersects&outFields=*&f=geojsonto get the parcel at a point. - CAD: see getting a parcel into AutoCAD or Civil 3D.
Assessor parcel lines are for taxation and are often 5 to 50 ft off the legal boundary. Why.
Basesheet uses this to draw the parcel line on a base plan for any Florida address, with LiDAR contours, soils, flood zones and wetlands.
