Home Inventory Checklist
The threat of loss of property from fire, theft, or other causes
is always present.
An accurate inventory and proof of ownership at the time of a loss can make claim settlement easier
and faster. The inventory will take time to compile, but the time and frustration it may save you later
will more than make up for it. This checklist will help you compile your home inventory. A good home
inventory includes a detailed list of your possessions including receipts, descriptions, and photos of
your home’s contents.
