Default Buckling ceramic tiles

Looking at lakefront property that we know is in the flood plain. The
small house was built in 1955 out of cinder blocks. The realtor says
this happens every 4-5 years. Most of value is in the lot but my
question is about the 12x12 ceramic tiles that are buckling. Would
this likely be due to slab shrinking and swelling because of the
water?

Thanks,

Brad
