More than likely, yes. Title insurance is on the property until you sell. It protects you against things that happened before you bought the property, so it doesn't protect against anything from the closing date through the present. It's about past, and a 1992 lien that they missed is about the past.
Though, I'm not sure about open permits being like a "lien" on the property.
