What is a home inventory and why should you have one

Homeownership brings a sense of pride and achievement. For most people, it is the largest investment you will ever make. Having good home insurance to protect it is important. So many things can happen to damage or totally destroy your home. Having a home inventory is an important part of what you do to protect your home. If you live in or near Albany, NY, NY Twin Bridges Insurance Agency is your local full-service independent insurance agency. Let us do the work of shopping for the best insurance for your needs. 

A home inventory is a detailed listing of all your possessions. If you ever suffer a loss and file a claim with your home insurance carrier, the inventory will help to make the process a lot less painful. Trying to create the list when your home has burned to the ground or been blown away by a tornado is not something anyone wants to do. By creating one when everything is where it should be and storing it safely, you will be able to collect your insurance money and be on the way to returning your life to normalcy. 

Making a home inventory takes time but doesn’t have to be terribly complicated. You can do it with a pad and pen going from room to room. You don’t have to do it all in one day unless you want to. Be as detailed as possible and include more information than you think you might need. Take pictures to store with your inventory. If you have receipts or invoices showing where and when things were purchased that will help guarantee you will be able to replace exactly what you had.
