Take an Inventory of Your Belongings Right After the Holidays

Losing your belongings in a disaster sucks. You will need good records to explain to the insurance company what you have lost. If you have a ton of gifts for the holidays, now is the time to write down what you have.

While the information is still fresh in your memory, WiseBread offers tracking some key information:

  • Make, model and serial numbers
  • Purchase price
  • Receipts

Once you have this information, contact your homeowner’s or renter’s insurance company. They will make sure you have coverage for your new items. You will need this information if you are robbed or in another disaster. If some of these things are tax deductible, you are already ahead of you in paying taxes for the previous year. Follow the link to learn about different ways to keep track of your home inventory.
