Who Benefits
Home Owners:
 Having an updated video inventory of your property satisfies the burden of proof that insurance companies require prior to settling a claim. Proper documentation of assets is crucial when your property becomes stolen or damaged and needs to be replaced in a timely manner. It will also assist police by identifying your property after a theft with written and photographic evidence of your property.
A home video inventory is a detailed video recording of the personal property located within your home. You should also include property that you have stored elsewhere, perhaps in a storage area or a garage on the premises. Your video inventory of your home should include your furniture, jewelry, artwork, antiques, appliances, kitchen contents, clothes, carpets, drapes, computer equipment, television sets, CD players (and other audio or audiovisual equipment), musical instruments, clocks, mirrors, linens, lawn mowers, tools, sports equipment, and any other items of value.
A video home inventory from JUST FOR THE RECORD includes all the above including video, and in the Plus Plan and Premium Plan you get digital pictures, printouts and a database inventory of your possessions delivered in a portfolio with an accompanying CD/DVD.
Small Businesses and Workshops:
A small business inventory is a detailed list of the property located at your business. Keeping track of your assets aids in keeping your property taxes low as well as your insurance premiums. Protect your business assets: An video inventory of your office equipment, workshop tools and machinery, and other business tangible assets documents your investment for insurance, lenders, suppliers, and procurement bids. You should also include property that you have stored elsewhere, perhaps in a storage area or elsewhere on the premises. A small business inventory from JUST FOR THE RECORD includes video, digital pictures, printouts and a database inventory of the items on-site delivered in a portfolio with an accompanying CD/DVD.
Vacation Property/Rental Owners/Landlords/Renters:
National Landlord Tenant Guide recommends taking pictures before and after tenant moves in or out. This is a potential benefit for both parties as a picture is worth a thousand words. Digital video service also provides a third party recording on the condition of the premises before and after tenant occupation. Damages and deficiencies can be confirmed easily by this service, which will protect both parties. Vacation rental property should also be documented and updated annually.
Renters Should Document:
Renters should also document their personal property for insurance purposes.
Rental Walk-Through:
Whether you're the landlord or the renter, the purpose of a rental walk-through is to document the condition of a rental property. A walk-through can be done prior to occupancy or at its conclusion. A rental walk-through done by JUST FOR THE RECORD includes a video walk-through of the property and digital photographs.
Newly Weds, and Movers:
Great time to take an inventory! We can take a video of your items before packing them up or moving them to your new place. Makes damage claims from movers easier to prove! A detailed video inventory will be a valuable asset if you to file a claim with your moving company for loss or damage. A video inventory of what you are moving, with its condition documented, allows you to decide if you need to purchase additional insurance before the move. Are your high value items adequately covered? A moving or storage inventory is a detailed list your personal property located in a storage facility or moving van. Your list should include your furniture, artwork, antiques, appliances, kitchen contents, clothes, carpets, drapes, computer equipment, television sets, CD players (and other audio or audiovisual equipment), musical instruments, clocks, mirrors, linens, lawn mowers, tools, sports equipment, and any other item of value you are having moved or stored. A moving or storage inventory from JUST FOR THE RECORD includes video, and in the Plus Plan and Premium Plans includes digital pictures, printouts and a database inventory of your possessions in a portfolio with an accompanying CD/DVD.
 Churches:
There are over 1300 Churches damaged by fire each year according to statistics from the National Fire Incident Reporting System (NFIRS).
Your insured content value is probably around 10-20% of your insured building value. That means a church insured for $1,000,000 has an insured content value of $100,000-$200,000. So ask yourself and your trustees, if you had a fire or theft, who could list all of the contents? This illustrates the value of a professional video inventory. If needed, the return on the investment and the peace of mind could be worth $20,000 - $40,000 more at settlement time.
Attorneys Pre-Nuptial and Divorce Inventories:
Attorneys find us helpful in divorce cases. We document the property as soon as possible, which then allows for a complete and fair division of assets between parties. No one forgets to list anything they would like, as it is right in front of them to divide up.
Special Collections:
Assess value and document collections. Whether you collect stamps, coins, dolls, antique tools, firearms or other specialty items, a home video inventory will help you assess and document your collection.
Seasonal Updates:
Items stored out-of-season may be difficult to access at the time an inventory is conducted. For example, if a home video inventory is completed in the summer, the homeowner may prefer not to pull out an extensive collection of Christmas decorations. Likewise, a video inventory completed in the winter may not include outdoor furniture that is normally displayed in warmer weather. At JUST FOR THE RECORD, we provide a service to return and include these items in an update when they are displayed.
