The items inside your home may be worth more than your house. These items may be covered by your homeowners insurance. It is important to make an inventory of valuable items in your home such as jewelries, collectible items such as paintings and figurines, appliances and gadgets. Having this list will help you make claims easier than trying to recall items lost in a fire. You also have the option to insure big ticket items separately.

Once you have made your list, keep it in a safe deposit box, or better yet, let a friend or relative keep it, just in case. You can also store it online.
