The laws vary in different jurisdictions but generally, a deed doesn't expire. However, until it is recorded in the land records it is only of use against the grantor and not against the world. If you don't record the deed and later the owner or the owner's heirs sell the property to another buyer, either not knowing or forgetting about the first deed, the second grantee will be the record owner as long as they record their deed. The first grantee with the unrecorded deed would need to sue the grantor to get their money back.

A recorded quitclaim deed establishes ownership until that owner executes a new deed that transfers the property to a new owner. Each owner will still have the original deed tucked away in their records although many will have become null since the property was later conveyed.
