Do you have adequate coverage for your possessions? If your personal property was damaged or stolen, would you be able to give your insurance company a complete list of all items damage, destroyed or stolen to ensure that your claim is filed accurately and promptly?
After a loss, too many people find out they own much more than they realize. Having a personal property inventory in place can help you determine if you have adequate homeowner’s coverage. Taking the time to complete a comprehensive home inventory also means that you’ll get your claim settled quickly and get your life back to normal.
