Inventories

An inventory is the listing, systematic description and valuation of collection of pieces (paintings, furniture, art pieces, books, etc.), usually the property of a private owner. Inventories are made on your own premises by Tajan�s inventory clerks and experts, who travel from Paris to the rest of France and abroad. A written copy of every inventory is sent to the owner of the pieces concerned.

Why make an inventory of your personal property?
• to discover the value of a collection of property,
• to use as the basis for a division of property,
• when making a gift,
• to use when negotiating insurance cover,
• in the event of inheritance, etc...
