The moment that you thought would never happen to you has arrived: some tragedy has struck your home, whether it be a robbery, fire, or natural disaster. You need to file a Wisconsin home insurance claim but you are anxious and stressed out at the thought of doing so.
Thankfully, the Insurance Information Institute has a helpful Web site which can ease your worries in a time like this. Know Your Stuff – Home Inventory is a free online home inventory system in which users can keep an updated account of their belongings as well as information about their insurance company.
If you think you lack the computer skills to run such a program, don’t worry! Know Your Stuff is a super easy system to use. After creating a free account, users can add rooms and items to their inventory. The system allows for adding specific information about items, such as replacement costs and purchase dates. In the event of a disaster, the user can access the information from any computer with Internet access—a great feature in case your computer is stolen or damaged.
Organizing personal information is not an easy task to undertake, but software such as Know Your Stuff can ease the process. As always, Community Insurance is here if you have any questions about your Wisconsin home insurance policy or what to include on your home inventory, so contact us today!
