An estate inventory is a list of the assets and liabilities of a decedent's estate with the appraised value of those items, with the exception of real estate.

They show the name of the decedent, the decedent's place of residence, the name of the person renouncing administration, the name of the replacement administrator to be appointed, and date. The relationship between the decedent, the executor, and the administrator is usually shown. Arranged chronologically and then alphabetically within each year.
