The origins of Allen, Williford & Seale, Inc. (AWS) date back to 1977. From the beginning, AWS has been dedicated to providing appraisal services for right-of-way projects. While leadership roles have evolved over time, the firm’s core values and unwavering commitment to client service have remained constant. Today, principals Randy L. Seale, David R. Bethel, J. Brandon Hodge, Carlo S. Forni, and Mark C. Schulze continue to uphold the company’s guiding philosophy: Appraised Right…And Right Away.

Although most real estate appraisers focus primarily on mortgage and financial lending work, AWS specializes in the right-of-way sector. While our firm has broad experience appraising all property types, right-of-way valuation is our primary discipline. AWS has participated in hundreds of right-of-way projects and appraised thousands of properties across the United States. Our appraisers have provided expert testimony in hundreds of proceedings before local, state, and federal courts—depth of experience that few appraisal firms can match.

Today, AWS is one of the largest independent appraisal firms in the right-of-way industry. Our nationwide experience delivering consistent, high-quality appraisals is unmatched. With a highly skilled staff and scalable resources, AWS has the expertise to successfully complete projects of any size, anywhere in the United States.
