The recent tragedies on the Gulf Coast has prompted me to get this letter out to you.  While we are not in an area threatened by hurricanes and catastrophic weather, we are vulnerable to a number of other losses.  No one ever thinks they will be the victim of fire, theft, or pipes bursting.  Hopefully, we will never experience any of these, but I choose to be on the safe side and prepare just in case.

About a year ago I met Karen Backus at a networking group that I attend.  I kept her brochure, as I was quite impressed with her and her business.  I sat on the information for about 6 months and finally gave her a call.  Her business is home inventory.  She can provide you with digital video, digital stills, photos, and documentation of the contents of your home inside and out.

She spent a day at our home putting everything on a digital camera and also on video.  It’s priceless information.  God forbid that we ever have to use this, but David and I now have the piece of mind that should something happen, we have this in our safety deposit box at the bank.

Prices are based on square footage and she will gladly come out and give you a free estimate.  There is a range of options to choose from.  This would also be good for your business as well. 

Not only do you have this valuable information, you can expedite the processing of insurance claims, you can make sure you have proper insurance coverage, and assist the police in identifying and returning stolen or lost items.  Could you recall from memory the contents of your home?

I highly recommend Karen.  It’s a small price to pay for peace of mind.
