County tax deed sale - private liens

Hello all,

I'm located in California and I have a question about a California county tax deed sale. If you win the bidding on a tax deed and receive the deed to the property (with or without the redemption period), are the private liens wiped out? Private liens include:

- mortgage liens
- homeowners liens
- mechanics liens

I understand that government liens (eg. state tax liens, IRS liens, etc.) are not wiped out and still remain. But I would like confirmation that the private liens are indeed wiped out. Thank you.
