question

On February 1, a man conveys his orchard to a gardener, and the gardener duly records the conveyance. The following day, the gardener conveys the property to a landscaper; she does not record her deed. Then on February 4, the gardener executes an identical conveyance of the orchard to a friend. The friend gives the gardener a check for 100,000forthepropertyandrecordstheconveyance,eventhoughhehasactualknowledgeofthepriorconveyancetothelandscaper.Thelandscaper,however,recordsherdeedonFebruary6.Thefriendthenconveyshisinterestinthefarmtoaninvestor,whogivesapurchasepriceof100,000 for the property and records the conveyance, even though he has actual knowledge of the prior conveyance to the landscaper. The landscaper, however, records her deed on February 6. The friend then conveys his interest in the farm to an investor, who gives a purchase price of 115,000 to the friend.
