Melissa Foote, owner of Step-by-Step Tech, joins Matt and Garrett for today's very special episode to discuss the importance of having a home inventory and organizing personal belongings. Melissa was inspired to create a home inventory platform after the devastating fires in her area, and today she shares her step-by-step process for creating a home inventory using smartphones. She emphasizes the value of having proof of ownership in case of disasters or burglaries and provides helpful tips on how to organize and store the inventory for easy access.

Our trio also highlights the emotional toll that disasters can take and how being prepared with a home inventory can provide peace of mind. Melissa's online class on creating a home inventory covers various modules including videos, step-by-step directions, and printable resources which real estate agents can incorporate into their services for clients and make it part of their annual real estate review. The importance of keeping track of the value of your home and the limitations of insurance policies in times of loss are also discussed. Ultimately, Melissa encourages listeners to be proactive about creating their own home inventory and even helping others with the same, providing an essential tool for protecting their belongings and financial wellbeing.
