Can the owner of a home place a lien on the tenant for money owed?
If the person is your tenant then they don't own real property so there is no place for you to "place a lien". Placing a lien on a debtor generally means recording it in the land records so it attaches to any real property they own. You would need to bring a lawsuit in the appropriate court and if successful you would obtain a judgment lien for the amount owed. Generally, the judgment would give you the power to have the local sheriff sieze any property the person owns in order to satisfy the lien. The judgment could be served on the tenant's bank and the sheriff could take possession of their car. The sheriff's department could provide you with a more detailed explanation of what they could do on your behalf if you obtain a judgment lien. You need to determine if the amount owed is enough to balance the legal expense of a lawsuit and whether the tenant has any property worth taking.
Can the landlord hold property due to balance of rent due?
Generally, no. The possession of someone else's property for a debt is a "pledge" or "security agreement" that goes well beyond the mere obligation to pay rent. In other words, the tenant must AGREE to allow the landlord to have a security interest in the tenant's property. However, if the landlord has accrued moving and storage fees for the tenant's property, the landlord often has an automatic "lien" on the property for payment of those expenses, but not the overdue rent. When the landlord perfects the lien, holds a public auction and sells the tenant's property, the landlord can usually only keep the amount of profit (if any) that covers the expenses, unless there is also a court order that the tenant owes other rent, penalties, fees, interest, costs, etc.

A lien is possible but it could not be used as a forced sale for recovery of monies owed. The lien would stay valid until paid or the person whom the judgment was against died. The aforementioned does not relate to marital property as Florida law allows and presumes that a married couple holds real property as Tenancy By The Entirety and cannot be attached in any manner when only one spouse is the debtor.
