AMC Reviews in Canada: How Six Appraisal Management Companies Rate on Google

November 12, 2026 @ 7:38PM

Value Connect Inc. has a 4.9-star Google rating from 250 reviews. That is the highest rating and the largest review count among the six appraisal management companies (AMCs) we compared on November 12, 2026.

The other five (Solidifi, FCT, FNF Canada, RPS and Nationwide Appraisal Services) have 330 Google reviews between them. Those reviews average 2.5 stars. Ninety-seven percent of Value Connect's reviews are five stars; 61% of the competitors' reviews are one star.

How the six AMCs rate on Google

Value Connect leads on rating and on review volume. No competitor tops 3.3 stars.

Company	Google listing	Rating (out of 5)	Reviews	Five-star share	One-star share
Value Connect	Guelph, ON	4.9	250	97%	2%
RPS	Toronto, ON	3.3	31	58%	42%
Solidifi	Markham, ON	2.7	138	40%	56%
FCT	Oakville, ON	2.5	84	33%	61%
FNF Canada	Mississauga, ON	2.2	46	28%	67%
Nationwide Appraisal Services (NAS)	Markham, ON	1.1	31	0%	97%

Value Connect's 243 five-star reviews outnumber the five competitors' combined total of 114. Figures come from each company's main Canadian Google listing on November 12, 2026; shares are of each listing's total reviews.

What clients say about Value Connect

Speed and service come up most. Google sorts Value Connect's reviews by topic, and after appraisals themselves (106 mentions), the most common topics are efficiency (32), ease of use (15), responsiveness (15), quick response time (14) and ease of dealing (14).

Reviewers include mortgage brokers who order often. They describe orders picked up quickly, fast contact with the borrower, and a team that answers questions. "Ordering is always quick and seamless, the pricing is completely fair," one client wrote.

Not every review is glowing: six are one star.

What reviewers flag at other AMCs

The low ratings elsewhere trace to three complaints that recur in the reviews we read:

Fees. Charges above the quote, admin fees on cancelled orders, and partial refunds.
Reachability. Emails and calls that go unanswered, and slow replies.
Inspections and values. Short site visits and values the homeowner disputes.

Competitors earn praise too. Recent RPS reviews from brokers credit its turnaround, pricing and broker support, and some brokers name Solidifi as their go-to AMC. What sets Value Connect apart is consistency: nearly every reviewer gives five stars.

Why ratings matter to lenders and brokers

Your borrower rarely picks the AMC, but they judge you by it. For many borrowers, the appraisal is the first fee they pay and the first visit to their home. When that step goes badly, the frustration lands on the broker and the lender as well.

Reviews also warn you early. Surprise fees, unanswered calls and rushed inspections are the same problems that delay closings and start value disputes. Before you add an AMC to your panel or send it your next deal, read its reviews.

How to read these numbers

Ratings are one signal, not a verdict. Keep these points in mind:

Snapshot. We recorded each company's main Canadian Google listing on November 12, 2026. Ratings change; the links in the table show current figures.
Other locations. FCT and FNF Canada have smaller listings elsewhere in Canada, rated 1.0 to 3.0 stars.
Scope. FCT and FNF Canada also sell title insurance and closing services, and their reviews cover those lines too. NAS has not claimed its listing, so it cannot reply to reviews.
Who reviews. Homeowners often post after a fee or a value disappoints them; brokers who order every week post less often. That pulls every AMC's rating down, ours included.
What ratings miss. Reviews measure service, not appraisal accuracy or compliance. Lenders test those through their own quality control.
Other sites. On Trustpilot, only Solidifi has a rated profile: 1.5 stars from 40 reviews, Canadian and U.S. combined. We found no Trustpilot reviews for the other five, Value Connect included.
