How long does a deed in lieu of foreclosure take to give back the property?

[Edit]

With the consent of the property owner and lender, the deed is valid immediately after it is recorded in the county public records. It is a good way to avoid the foreclosure process, but, oddly, many lenders will not accept such a deed and insist on the expensive and tedious foreclosure process.
