Before Your Claim

Document what you have before you have to prove what you had.

Your home.  Your belongings.  Your record.

A free home inventory tool, created with the experience of a professional insurance adjuster.before your claim document your property
You have spent years building a home and filling it with things that matter to you.  Could you remember everything you own if you had to make a list tomorrow?  Most people could not.  And after a fire, storm, or other major property loss, remembering what was in every room can become one of the most difficult parts of an insurance claim.  That is why we created Before Your Claim.  It gives you a practical way to document your home and belongings now, while everything is still in front of you.  And you do not have to finish it all today.

Start With One Room

That is it.

Choose a room.  Document what is there.  Build your record a little at a time.  The goal is not to create a perfect inventory in one afternoon.  The goal is to have a useful record that did not exist yesterday.  Before Your Claim is designed to help you create a PDF record of your home and belongings that you can save and keep under your own control.   Start with one room.  The kitchen.  Your garage.  The living room.  Come back when you have time.

One room is better than no rooms

Why We Built It

At Absolute Adjusting, we help property owners navigate insurance claims, including major losses involving extensive damage to homes and personal property.  We have worked through contents inventories containing hundreds and thousands of individual items.  We have seen how difficult it can be for a homeowner to reconstruct a lifetime of belongings from memory after a disaster.  What was in that cabinet?  How many sets of sheets were in the linen closet?  What tools were in the garage?  What was the model of that appliance?  Those are ordinary questions today. After a loss, they can become surprisingly difficult to answer.

We would rather help you document those things before you ever need to make a claim.

Built From Claims Experience

Before Your Claim was developed from the perspective of someone who works with insurance claims and understands the importance of documenting personal property.  It is not an insurance company inventory requirement, and using it does not determine whether an item is covered or whether an insurer will accept its value.  It is simply a practical way to preserve information that may become useful later.  Your record belongs to you.

Why Is It Free?

Because we believe homeowners should have a practical way to document their belongings before something happens to them.  You do not need to hire Absolute Adjusting or become a client to use Before Your Claim.  There is no obligation to use our professional services.  We built this tool to make preparation easier, not to create another complicated project for homeowners.  Learn More About Why It Is Free

The Best Time to Start Is Today.

You do not need to inventory your entire house.  You do not need to wait until storm season.  And you certainly do not need to wait until something happens.  Just pick a room.
