thanks,
yes, because it was presumed to be valid once delivered to you and it was notarized. You would have to file it with an avidafit of death at your recorders office.
Hi Hao Mai!
Welcome to forums!
As the deed is notarized, it will be considered as valid. I will suggest you to contact the county recorder's office immediately and record the deed.
Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

A deed is valid once it is executed (signed by the grantor and notarized) and delivered to the grantee. Recording a deed is not required.
