WHAT IS A HOME INVENTORY?

A home inventory is a detailed list of the personal property or assets located in your home, including pictures. You should also include property that you have stored elsewhere, perhaps in a garage or storage shed. Your list should include: furniture, jewelry, antiques, artwork, appliances, kitchen contents, clothes, carpets, drapes, computer equipment, television sets, CD players (and other audio or audiovisual equipment), musical instruments, clocks, mirrors, linens, lawn mowers, snow equipment, tools, sports equipment, collectibles and any other items of value.

A business inventory conceptually is very similar in that it is professional business related assets that are inventoried. Everything from office furniture, computers and items in the break area all fall under the heading of business equipment.

WHY AN INVENTORY?

Insurance......Recommended by insurance companies and financial planners, a home inventory offers the homeowner protection and peace of mind by providing a detailed record of their personal property to maximize & simplify insurance claims.

Catastrophe.....Fires, floods or storms can destroy our home and business, not only taking away our valuables but a lifetime of memories.

Burglaries.....Thieves can invade our lives when we least expect it. Additional pain and grief may start when we deal with our Insurance Company as they ask for proof of ownership of our valuables. This is why we include INVIS-ID.

Trusts, Wills and Estate Planners.....Ensuring the accuracy of the estate will maximize the benefits of the levels of protection.

Relocations.....Having an inventory done prior to having the movers arrive will enable you to show proof of any loss or damage of goods during the move. If they break it or loose it you should not be held liable. (Inquire about of flat-fee military PCS program).
