Mobile Home Insurance - What You Should Know

If your home is destroyed, you will need this list and pictures as proof of your personal belongings to get damages. You could trust your insurance agent with it, but it is better to keep a safe copy for yourself. This may seem unnecessary to some, but if you ever have a serious claim situation you will be thankful that you took a few minutes and followed this step.
Secondly, a good insurance policy will include liability insurance. Liability coverage protects you, the homeowner, if someone gets hurt on your property or in your home. It can pay for medical expenses and costs associated with the injury. A good policy will also help pay for legal defense in the event that you are sued. It should also cover damages made to the property when the accident occurred. However, it does not cover injuries to you or your immediate family living in the home.
To determine the amount of liability coverage that you might need, think about how many people will be in and out of your home on a daily basis. If you have teenagers that are always inviting friends over, liability insurance is a must! It is important to try to make your home and property as safe as possible. Keep the porch and walkways in good repair. Always have adequate lighting and keep your home free of excessive clutter.
Finally, make sure your mobile home insurance policy not only insures your mobile home, but also insures the surrounding property and out buildings. Have adequate coverage to give you enough money to replace your home in the event that something happens to it.

i actually used my video camera as a means of keeping an approx inventory of what's in my house.

Took it around room by room, made sure I got anything that looked valuable and opened the closets (my wife has a LOT of clothes!).

It maynot serve as a full inventory list but it will give me a pretty good memory jog in the even of a major claim.

Video is king. Probably the most difficult part of the entire process when a client has a loss is asking them to remember what they had and write it down in an inventory.
