Personal Property Spreadsheet

Quick..... You have just gone out to dinner when you get a call from a neighbor, your home is on fire or someone has just broken into your home. Do you know what property is in your home? Most people have no idea what is in their home, what the model/serial numbers are or even the estimated value of all their personal property.

In order to assist my clients, I have created a spreadsheet to help you track, by room, of what personal property you have, when you purchased it, what the model and serial numbers are, and the estimated value. Just respond to this blog and I will send you this valuable spreadsheet.

Here are my recommendations on how to use this spreadsheet. Pick one room per week and fill out as much information on that room as you can. Next week, pick out another room until you have completed your entire home. I would then take pictures of your major possessions like artwork, jewelry, and valuable objects. Next, keep a copy of this spreadsheet in your computer, print a copy and place it and the pictures in a safe place and download the spreadsheet onto a flash drive and give it to someone you trust/or place it in a safe.

By doing the above process, you will be able to update the inventory list every few years without have to do the entire process over again.
