It doesn't always have to happen to you

So often when we talk about a home inventory, we hear the denial ... "It (whatever the 'it' is) won't happen to me." There are quite a few people with stories about a fire started in one home (it didn't happen to you), but was so hot, so out of control, that it affected the house(s) next door.

As I write this, there is a fire raging in Noblesville. And by now you've probably figured it out - it has damaged the houses next door.

Consider - no, I'm going to be a little stronger here, do - an inventory of the contents of your home or business. And if you don't want to do it yourself, give us or another inventory service a call. For the cost of just one nice item in your house or business, you can have someone document your belongings, create an insurance company-approved report, and even save a backup copy. Many will even update your records on an annual basis.

What is the value of everything you own? Especially if you lose it all?
