Just One IN. Property Listed in Inventory? ResJudicata?

sbm @lamlawwindy and @ marylamby In reading link to "Guardian's First Inventory" more carefully, I noticed this language: "The following items are all the property of the PROTECTED PERSON in the State of Indiana of which the guardian has knowledge. Any encumbrances, liens and other charges on any item are also stated." rbm bbm
So appears imo, at time of filing petition seeking Gdn'ship, BM's/atty's July 6 inventory listed only the one piece of real/est which was under contract (not all SM's/their IN real est).*
Makes sense imo that a petitioner seeking a guardianship of missing person & to be appt'ed Gdn, and to intially complete sale of one IN. property only, would specify only that one IN parcel he wanted to complete the sale on.
IIRC, a hearing for perm gdn'ship is scheduled for Sept. In the meantime/prior to hearing, it may make sense to amend inventory to specify other IN. real est in which SM holds/held an interest, esp'ly if BM contemplates selling any. As I mentioned ~ weeks or a month ago, IN statute provides for transferring Gdnship procedure into and out of IN. ct. Ditto CO statutes IIRC.
Will BM take action to transfer (part of) Gdn'ship procedure from IN to CO?
If so, is IN ct's finding of SM not able to be located status res judicata in CO ct?
Also makes sense imo that BM/atty does not list intangibles, such as bank a/c, stocks, bonds, mut fds, brokerage a/c's et as being in IN, if those assets are now based in CO.
As always, I welcome comments, clarification, correction, esp'ly from our legal professionals. jmo.
