Having an Up-to-Date
Home Inventory Can Make
the Claims Process Faster
GETTING STARTED
• Make it a goal to create an inventory for one space in your house each week and soon you’ll have a complete list.
• Document your valuables with general descriptions, cost, and when and where they were purchased. Record serial numbers, if applicable.
• Make sure you have sufficient insurance coverage for big-ticket items, such as jewelry, art, and collectibles. They may require an endorsement in addition to your standard homeowners or renters insurance policy. Save receipts and appraisal documents with your inventory.
• Don’t forget items that may be tucked away in a garage, basement, attic, or storage shed.
USE TECHNOLOGY TO MAKE THE PROCESS EASIER
• There are many free apps that can help you create a list of
your belongings, organized by room. You can also use your cell phone to take photos or video to document your possessions.
KEEP YOUR HOME INVENTORY UP-TO-DATE AND IN A SAFE PLACE
• Make a habit of adding any significant new purchases and receipts to your list.
• If you have a paper inventory, keep a copy somewhere outside of your home or make a digital backup.
• Keep a copy of your digital inventory on an external drive or cloud storage service. Photos and video you take with your phone may automatically be saved to cloud storage.
• If using an app, make sure the information you enter is backed up and that you know how to access it when you need it.
Once your inventory is created, add up the replacement costs for all your items, and discuss your situation with your insurance agent to make sure you have the right coverage to meet your needs.
