text: in having a quit claim deed recorded what does it mean when it says it is indexed but not recorded yet? i recently had a quit claim deed sent in to be recorded.  it is now accessible in the records search,  but there are different status symbols and on it,  it has a status of indexed.  recorded is one of the status options but it doesnt have that yet? will it eventually have that? also this has been a very recent event.  it is as of 5-3-06  so should i assume that the status will change to recorded eventually? yes it will eventually be recorded properly wait n see
