(Texas Department of Insurance) – Keeping a list of stuff inside your house—or a home inventory—could help you make a homeowners insurance claim after a fire or disaster.

Most insurance companies will want a record of lost or damaged items before they pay a claim.

Many companies have apps or online forms to help you make a home inventory—or you can build your own by using your phone to take pictures or video of each room in your home.
