What is the purpose or benefit?
This allows you to track all of your important documents and files and proof of valuables in the event that your personal property is stolen or, if your home or office become inaccessible, damaged or destroyed by:
Fire
Water damage
Natural disaster
Even if you have a medical event that prevents you from being able to access your home, you have a record of your possessions that can be provided to loved ones and more importantly your insurance company.
How to use it?
For each room and closet in your home/office, take a photo and record a video.
Describe each valuable possession in the video
Identify each possession of value (electronics, furniture, art, jewelry, cars, clothing, etc)
Scan a copy of all important documents:
proof of insurance, policy numbers, phone number (home/renters, life, health, auto, etc)
drivers licenses
birth certificates
immigration papers
social security cards
passports
deed for your home(s)
your will or trust
children’s immunization records
pet vaccination records
certified appraisals of jewelry, art, other valuable possessions
NOTE - each item or possession should have its own line in the spreadsheet. Each person’s document should have their own line (so John’s birth certificate is one row, Jane’s birth certificate is another one)
If you have printed copies, store all of these in a waterproof envelope/container that you can quickly grab in an emergency.
