Insurance documentation
Insurers schedule valuable collections when they can see what is there and what it is worth. We produce an item-level photo inventory and a valuation schedule in the format agents ask for, keep a secure copy, and update it annually if you want.
Flat fee per report, quoted in advance
Who it is for
Built for the people who need the answer in writing
- Collectors with enough value in cards to need a scheduled-property rider
- Insurance agents who need a clean inventory to bind coverage
- Adjusters who need a pre-loss record after a claim
How it works
From first message to signed report
Step 1: Message or email
Tell us what you have and what it is for. Photographs help; a count and the intended use are enough to start.
Step 2: Written scope and quote
We reply by email with what the engagement covers, the fee basis and the timeline. Fees are flat or hourly, never a percentage of value.
Step 3: Inspection
In person across the Yuma area, or from your photographs and video with that limitation stated in the report.
Step 4: Report
A signed written report with the method, the photographs and the certification with disclosures.
Step 5: Delivery
By email as a PDF. We keep a copy under the retention policy.

Questions
Will my insurer accept it?
Ask your agent what the policy requires; our format follows common scheduled-property requirements and we adjust to what they specify.
How often should it be updated?
Once a year, or whenever you add or sell significant cards.
Do you sell insurance?
No. We prepare documentation only and can point you to agents who write collectibles coverage.
