History
Schmook Appraisal Company was founded in 1968 by John E. Schmook, MAI. John had been in the field of real estate appraising since 1959, working for various mortgage/lending institutions and the U.S. Government. He operated the company as a sole proprietorship (a one man shop) until 1976 at which time his son, Alan Schmook, joined the company. In 1980, Alan became the office manager for Schmook Appraisal Company, and in 1985 Alan acquired the remaining ownership interest from John and became the sole proprietor of the company. John moved to Enid, Oklahoma and opened an independent appraisal office. In 1998, John retired and moved to Arkansas. He is available for counsel.
