Modern Lending Requires Innovation and Automation
ValueProtect AVM is an indemnified valuation delivered by two industry leaders, Teranet and FNF Canada, with decades of combined experience shaping modern valuation solutions. Our solution was designed for mortgage lenders who need reliable property values, quickly and consistently, while mitigating risk and controlling costs.
The Future of Valuations
The future of property valuations lies in scalable, automated processes, including:
- Intelligent, dynamic decision trees – leveraging insured and uninsured AVMs for low-risk transactions.
- Strategic partnerships with a trusted AVM provider – solutions that leverage robust, real-time datasets.
- Higher customer satisfaction through faster, consistent outcomes – reduced lending costs while delivering faster approvals.
- Robust AVM governance and enhanced quality controls – monitoring model performance with proactive review triggers.
Automation cuts cost and time but can introduce unmitigated risk.

The Difference is in the Data
All AVMs use mathematical/statistical models — but data sources vary.
MLS Listing Data
- Provides listing prices (not always final sale prices)
- Covers only properties listed on MLS
- Excludes FSBO (For Sale by Owner) transactions
- Represents only part of the total market
Land Registry Data
- Managed at the provincial level
- Records all property ownership changes, mortgages, and leases
- Includes all property sales (not just MLS-listed)
- When combined nationally, provides the most complete view of sales and values across Canada
The FNF Canada Indemnification
- Coverage up to $2.5M in major markets
- Self-report and only indemnify funded loans
- A ‘good to value’ confirms the refinance can proceed using the AVM value, which is fully supported up to that amount
- Industry-leading coverage with continuously expanding zones
