How should I prepare in advance?
1. Secure the property
It’s important to ensure the premises are safe and secure, whether privately owned or rented. If you want extra peace of mind, change the locks rather than chasing duplicate keys, as you never know who has spare keys.
An accumulation of mail and periodicals over a considerable period of time is the perfect indicator of a vacant house. Make regular visits to collect the mail or redirect or forward it to your address. Additionally, this will deter burglars.
2. Locate important documents
It can be time-consuming and difficult to find items like this, especially when the person who just passed has not pointed you in the right direction. It’s not uncommon for them to be hidden in the most unlikely places, so do not rule out any possibilities.
This task can be difficult and very time-consuming, especially when the person who has recently passed hasn’t told you where any of it can be found. Sometimes they can be hidden in the strangest of places, so don’t rule any locations out. There are a number of important documents, including:
- A will
- Bank statements
- Life insurance policy
- Birth/marriage certificates
- Homeowners insurance policy
- Other financial records, including private savings, shares, etc
- Sentimental documents such as letters, diaries, poems, etc
