MID-STATES APPRAISAL SERVICES, INC. began in 1983 when Dennis E. Vogan ventured out on his own to develop an agribusiness specialty. With a degree in Business and Economics, from Marymount College of Salina, Kansas, Dennis took the opportunity as it arose for him while employed with Evco Inc., owned by Dean Evans, owner of Evans Grain Company located in the same building. With encouragement from Dean Evans, Dennis began with one appraisal on a grain elevator of Long Pine, Nebraska, owned by Harold Coash.
