Home Inventory Video Suggestions: Meha Ahmad writes for Insurance Agents.com, and a recent entry of hers suggested that all of us complete a home inventory video of our belongings. Most of the claims adjusters that I know would like to tell Meha that they don't really want to watch home videos and that you will have to do that for yourself, but that's a topic for another day. Obviously, I believe a video is a poor substitute for a detailed home inventory provided by a qualified home inventory professional such as Farley Home Services, but it's sure better than nothing, and it's in that spirit that I provide the above link. This topic is so important (and neglected!) that any discussion of it is worthwhile in my humble opinion.Your home insurance claim process will run more smoothly if you get shots of every room, but more importantly, of every item in every room. Leave nothing undocumented. Open all the drawers, closets, storage units, cabinets. Slowly pan over every storage space so your insurance provider will have a better idea of what your home insurance claim includes.
Listen, I'm passionate about this topic since it's how I earn my living, but the fact remains that a home inventory report that you create could be the most important document that you will ever hold in your hands next to a marriage certificate, birth certificate, or a will. Home inventory turns the worst year of your life into no something manageable and bearable. It means the difference between surviving and thriving, and in complicated days like these isn't it nice to have a little piece of mind?
Family Time: We are enjoying a nice visit with my Mom this week. It's been a while since we have seen her, so this is a nice reunion don't you know.
