A summary of an instrument creating an interest in, or affecting the title to or possession of real property may be recorded if the requirements are substantially met. A summary should be signed and acknowledged by all parties to the original. The following information should be clearly stated in the summary: the names of the parties to the original, a description of the interest or interests in real property created by the instrument, and the legal description of the property. If the requirements are met, the summary may be recorded and, as to the contents of the summary only, it shall have the same force and effect as if the original had been recorded, and constructive notice shall be deemed to be given concerning the contents of the summary and the existence of the instrument to any subsequent purchasers that acquire an interest in the real property.

Idaho has a race-notice recording act, which means that a later buyer, who pays fair value, does not have any notice of any earlier conflicting interests, and records first wins and will have priority over later recordings.
