(a) The property has not been declared tax defaulted for delinquent taxes.
(b) The property has been redeemed from the tax sale and deeded to the taxing agency.
(c) The tax deed to the taxing agency has been held to be invalid and has been canceled; provided, however, that the statute of limitations provided for in Section 532 shall not apply.
