Methodology & standards
All work is performed in conformity with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice. Scope of work, intended use, and value premise are defined at engagement and disclosed in the resulting report. As an AQB Certified USPAP Instructor, Mr. Johnson brings instructor-level command of the standards — not just practitioner-level familiarity — to every assignment, and evaluates the standards compliance of other appraisers' work with that same command when retained to do so.
Availability & engagement
Available for case consultation, expert engagement, deposition, and trial testimony, as well as panel onboarding, assignment coverage, and appraisal review engagements. E&O documentation available during engagement onboarding where required.

Independence
NextPhase does not buy, sell, broker, consign, or take a position in anything it appraises, and holds no referral arrangement with any dealer, auction house, or brokerage. That independence is not a marketing line — it is what allows a conclusion to survive scrutiny.

What the work actually looks like
Real assignments, client details removed — what each engagement actually turned on, rather than how it felt.
A house, a workshop of machine tools, a forty-year firearms collection and a stake in the family company — four disciplines that three appraisers had only partly covered. One engagement, one effective date, one set of assumptions.
A donation the regulations would have aggregated past the appraisal threshold, which the donor had assessed item by item. One qualified appraisal covering the group, itemized, signed inside the window the regulations allow.
An opposing report whose number was not obviously wrong — which is what made it dangerous. It failed on its own certification, and was answered section by section with an independent valuation to the correct definition of value.
