I think you will find that a large part of Fl has potential sinkhole problems so you will have to accept the risk or try and find another part of the country that does not have the problem. I think you will find the frequency of sink holes to increase the closer you are to a water feature (just a very limited observation). Thus I would buy a property that was not located close to water, inducing the ponds that are catch basins built to retain water.
