Earlier this week, a construction crew ruptured a gas line and caused an explosion to a home located not far from where they were working. The home was totally destroyed. Fortunately, no one was home at the time (except for the family dog who luckily survived). It is difficult to imagine what it would be like to receive a call at work telling you that your home was destroyed. How do you start putting your life and home back together?

A crucial first step is providing a detailed list of all the items within your home including proof of possession through photos and receipts. Creating this list and finding the required proof of purchase is not something that should be done after a tragedy has occurred as it would delay how quickly the settlement process would begin as well as the amount of the settlement.

An existing inventory report keeps you and your family prepared and protected as it will ensure the process begins immediately and that you will receive a settlement covering the full extent of the loss.
