After a valid deed is delivered from grantor to grantee, in order to prevent his interest from being defeated by third parties who may claim an interest in the same property, the grantee should immediately record the deed. When a deed is recorded, it is deposited and indexed in a systematic way in a public office, where it operates to give notice of the grantee's interest to the rest of the world.
