[Sava Partnership](https://knowledge.goreport.com/knowledge/sava-partnership?hsLang=en) # Sava Home Condition Survey (HCS) Scheme Sava have made the decision that they will no longer operate the Sava HCS Scheme from 1st September 2023. For a number of years, Sava’s main areas of focus have been on education and knowledge sharing within the residential surveying industry. During this time, they have continued to maintain their HCS software for two reasons: 1. To provide it to learners undertaking the Diploma in Residential Surveying and Valuation as part of their assessment. 2. To allow the people they trained as Home Inspectors to have a product they were able to offer to consumers. This was due to the fact there was limited software available in the market for those who are not members of the RICS. There are now many available software products within the market, and they feel it is time to close down the HCS scheme. **The HCS report format is available as a commercial product from GoReport.** [View Sava Graduate Discount Plans Here](https://guide.goreport.com/sava-graduate-offer?hsLang=en) Please find below a number of FAQ’s to help you learn more about the partnership and how it affects you as a commercial user.
