I reviewed all public remarks for explicit owner-occupancy statements or percentages and found none. Because no numeric or descriptive owner-occupancy information appears in the remarks, the owner-occupancy percentage cannot be determined from the provided listings.
Multiple remarks confirm the building has elevators and that they were recently replaced/upgraded. No listing provides a numeric count (e.g., '4 elevators'), so a numeric value cannot be determined from the public remarks.
Calculated from the lowest association fee observed across all non-penthouse unit listings for this building.
Calculated from the highest association fee observed across all non-penthouse unit listings for this building.
Calculated from association fees observed in penthouse unit listings for this building.

All 11 of 11 current listings include OTCOEX in association_fee_includes, matching prior high-confidence data that common area electricity/common expenses are covered by the maintenance fee. One agent notes that the HOA 'reflects full-service building amenities and utilities,' which is consistent with common area utilities being included and there are no remarks suggesting a change.

Every one of the 11 current MLS listings lists SEWER in association_fee_includes, reinforcing the previously established high confidence that sewer is included in the maintenance fee. An agent’s comment that the HOA reflects full-service building utilities further supports this and appears to be consistent rather than an isolated claim.
All 11 current listings explicitly show WATER in association_fee_includes, confirming that water is paid through the maintenance fees. The reference to HOA fees reflecting 'full-service building amenities and utilities' is consistent with water being included and suggests this is a stable, building-wide practice.
Multiple independent listings describe a shared BBQ amenity, using phrases like 'BBQ area', 'BBQ deck', and 'pool, whirlpool, sauna, BBQ, car wash area'. At least 7 of the 11 remark sets list BBQ as a building amenity, indicating this is a long-standing and widely advertised common feature rather than a one-off agent error.

At least 7 of the provided listings describe a 'car wash station' or 'car wash area' as a common amenity (e.g., 'pool, whirlpool, sauna, BBQ area, car wash area, meeting room'). This matches current MLS data where 7/10 listings have CRWSH in amenities, confirming a shared car wash facility on site.

Public remarks repeatedly list a 'meeting room' among building amenities (e.g., 'pool, whirlpool, sauna, BBQ, car wash area, meeting room'). One listing also references a 'recreation room,' consistent with a shared community/meeting space, and 9/10 MLS entries have MEEROO checked.
Two listings clearly describe a shared 'patio/deck area' or 'BBQ deck' among the building amenities, indicating common outdoor deck/patio space. Several other listings list a BBQ area with pool/whirlpool/sauna and other common elements, consistent with a shared outdoor deck setting. Combined with 4/10 MLS records checking PATDEC/COVPAT, this provides strong, multi-agent evidence that the building offers patio/deck amenities accessible to residents.

Several listings note 'BBQ area, recreation room' or 'pool, hot tub, BBQ area, sauna, recreation room, car wash area', indicating a shared rec/entertainment space. With both MLS checkboxes and explicit textual mentions across multiple agents, there is strong evidence the building offers a common recreation room-type amenity.

Amenity lists repeatedly include 'pool, whirlpool, sauna, BBQ area' or similar, and several agents highlight the sauna along with other core building features. This consistent, multi-listing evidence strongly supports that a common sauna remains available in the building.
Multiple listings describe dedicated storage for units, such as an 'additional exterior storage closet,' 'bonus storage space in the corridor,' and 'Security, Storage and great covered parking stall!', indicating that residents have access to extra storage beyond the unit interior. This aligns with current MLS data where several listings check storage-related amenities/unit features. Because these mentions come from different units and appear in varied wording rather than a single copy-pasted remark, storage units/lockers are very likely a real and ongoing feature of the building.
Searched for 'surfboard storage', 'board storage', and similar phrases. While general storage is mentioned, there is no explicit reference to surfboard-specific storage, so surfboard storage is not indicated (low confidence).
No analysis available
While public remarks don’t call out 'trash chute' by name (which is common for this type of utility feature), both historical and current MLS checkbox data are nearly unanimous in marking a trash chute amenity. In the absence of any contrary evidence, this strongly indicates that a building-wide trash chute system exists and remains in use.

Listings consistently advertise 'pool, whirlpool, sauna' or 'swimming pool, hot tub, sauna, BBQ area', demonstrating that a shared hot tub/whirlpool spa is a well-established building feature. The repeated inclusion across many different units and agents strongly confirms this amenity exists at the building level.
Multiple listings for 2040 Nuuanu describe building amenities that include a “pool” or “swimming pool,” often paired with “whirlpool,” “hot tub,” and BBQ/sauna facilities. At least 7 of 11 recent public remarks explicitly reference a pool, and MLS data for all current listings flags a pool amenity, indicating a well-established common-area swimming pool for residents.
No analysis available
Searched for 'salt water pool', 'saltwater', 'saline', etc. and found no mentions. Therefore there is no evidence the pool is salt water (low confidence).
Across the provided remarks, at least 7 listings clearly describe in-unit laundry with phrases like 'stacked washer/dryer', 'brand-new washer and dryer', 'convenient in-unit stacked washer + dryer', 'in-unit washer/dryer', and 'in unit laundry'. Both studio and 1-bedroom units at 2040 Nuuanu are advertised with their own washer/dryer, and MLS inclusions show 10/10 with washer/dryer, confirming the building offers units with in-unit laundry. This strongly supports keeping laundry_in_unit as a building feature buyers can expect to find in some units.
No analysis available
Searched the remarks for terms like 'coin-op', 'paid laundry', 'quarters', or 'card' related to community laundry and found none. Absence of mention suggests no paid community laundry, but this is low-confidence since the listings focus on in-unit laundry.
Multiple remarks explicitly note in-unit washer/dryers in units. I searched for phrases like 'laundry on each floor,' 'laundry room on every floor,' and similar and found no such language, so community laundry on every floor is not indicated.
All reviewed listings show at least one parking stall for the unit, with phrases like 'one covered parking stall' and 'Two deeded tandem parking stalls.' MLS data (11/11 with parking features) and consistent remarks across different agents confirm that the building provides resident parking. Buyers can expect parking to be a standard offering in this building.
Multiple remarks directly reference dedicated stalls, using terms like 'assigned covered parking,' 'Two deeded tandem parking stalls,' and 'The reserved parking stall.' With all listings flagged ASSIGN in MLS, the evidence strongly indicates that parking is assigned/deeded rather than general first-come-first-served.
At least 6–8 of the provided listing remarks explicitly reference covered or gated garage parking (quotes include "assigned covered parking", "reserved parking stall is in a covered gated garage", and "1 Covered Secured Parking"). One listing mentions a "secured open parking" stall as an outlier, but the weight of agent remarks across multiple listings and the historical MLS checkbox data strongly indicate the building offers covered parking.
Several listings explicitly describe deeded or reserved/assigned parking stalls (including a direct 'Two deeded tandem parking stalls' statement), supporting that parking can be deeded with units. Confidence is high based on explicit language.
No analysis available
I searched for terms like 'parking fee', 'monthly parking', 'additional parking cost' and similar phrases; none were found. Remarks describe deeded/assigned/guest parking but do not state any monthly fee, so the parking fee is unknown from remarks.
Several independent listings highlight guest parking, including one specifying '4 guest parking spaces' and another noting 'Guest Parking Available in Front of Building!' With 8/11 MLS entries checking GUEST and consistent description in remarks, the building clearly offers designated guest/visitor parking.
Multiple agents describe secured or gated parking, mentioning a 'covered gated garage,' 'gated garage parking,' 'secured open parking,' and 'Parking is secured by a gated entry!' Together with SECENT checked on most MLS entries, this confirms that the building’s parking area is accessed through secure/gated entry.
While only one of the provided listings mentions it, the phrase 'Two deeded tandem parking stalls' is a clear, detailed description of tandem parking at 2040 Nuuanu. Because any presence of tandem stalls means the building offers this parking configuration, tandem parking is included as a building feature.
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for 'waitlist', 'waiting list', and related phrases; none were present. Many listings describe assigned/deeded stalls and guest parking but do not mention a waitlist, so absence suggests no waitlist but confidence is moderate.
No analysis available
Listings explicitly reference a new FOB/key-card system and secured entry/gated parking, which indicates card/fob access is present.

I searched for terms like 'security patrol', 'roving security', or similar and found none. The building has a resident manager and secured entry, but there is no evidence of a security patrol service in the remarks.

Multiple listings for 2040 Nuuanu reference window air conditioning, including explicit phrases like 'window A/C' and 'window AC in living room.' Current MLS checkbox data (ACWIUN in 7/11 listings) and prior high-confidence history together strongly support that some units in this building use window AC units.
Across historical and current MLS data, every listing reviewed (16/16 historically, 11/11 current) marks the building’s construction_materials as CONCRE, indicating concrete construction. None of the public remarks suggest any alternative construction type or a reconstruction that would change this. This consistent checkbox data across many listings and years supports treating the building as concrete-constructed with very high confidence.
Only a small minority of MLS listings (3/10 current, previously just 1/6) check the DOUWAL box, while most listings omit it and no public remarks reference double-wall or similar framing. Given the typical all-concrete high-rise construction in this submarket, the scattered DOUWAL entries are best explained as MLS checkbox errors rather than true building characteristics.

The overwhelming majority of current listings (9/10) do not mark ABOGRO, and none of the public remarks mention above-ground construction or similar terminology. Given the building’s profile as a reinforced-concrete high-rise, the lone ABOGRO flag appears inconsistent and is treated as an isolated MLS input mistake rather than a real building feature.

I searched for explicit STR language (e.g., 'short-term rental allowed', 'vacation rental', 'NUC', '30-day minimum', etc.) and found none. In absence of any STR-related statements, STR allowance cannot be confirmed and is assumed not allowed with moderate confidence.
I searched for phrases indicating hotel rental pool participation and found none. Because short-term rentals are not indicated in the remarks, there is no evidence of a hotel rental pool; set to false with moderate confidence.
I searched for language indicating mandatory participation in a rental program and found none. Given no STR program is described and no mandatory language appears, mandatory pool participation is set to false with moderate confidence.

I searched the remarks for phrases like 'lease expires', 'land lease to', 'leasehold expiring in', and explicit years; none were found. Without any explicit leasehold language or a year, the lease expiry is unknown.
Multiple listings explicitly state the building is VA approved, indicating VA loans are accepted. This is a direct statement in the public remarks, so confidence is high.
I searched for explicit insurance phrasing (e.g., 'fully insured', 'walls-in coverage', 'full insurance') and found none. Although a listing notes 'full hurricane insurance in place', that does not explicitly indicate the HOA provides full walls-in building insurance, so there is no evidence to mark the building as fully insured by the HOA.
Multiple independent listings explicitly state that 2040 Nuuanu is a sprinklered building, with phrases like 'the well-maintained building offers fire sprinklers throughout', 'Sprinkler System in unit', and 'Sprinklered Building!'. At least 5 recent listings reference sprinklers at the building or in-unit level, aligning with MLS data where 9 of 11 listings have FIRSPR checked. Evidence is strong, consistent, and clearly not a copy-paste error across agents.
Listings reference building sprinklers and in-unit sprinkler systems, which are safety-related features, but none explicitly say the building has passed a fire/life safety evaluation (FLSE) or passed a fire inspection. Therefore there is no evidence in the remarks to confirm an FLSE pass.

At least three separate listings mention ocean or coastline views, including phrases like 'sweeping city and ocean views,' 'beautiful views of the ocean and downtown Honolulu skyline,' and 'expansive city, coastline, ocean, and sunset views.' This language appears across different units and is consistent with MLS view data, strongly indicating the building offers units with ocean views. Buyers searching for ocean-view units would reasonably consider this building.

City and downtown skyline views are noted in at least five or more separate listings with phrases such as 'stunning views of the Honolulu city skyline,' 'Stunning coastline and Downtown views,' and 'Nice City Views!!!'. These descriptions come from multiple units and align with MLS CITY view flags, showing that city views are a prominent and reliable feature. Buyers seeking city views would clearly be interested in this building.
At least two listings explicitly reference coastline views, using phrases like 'expansive ... coastline ... views' and 'Stunning coastline and Downtown views that's perfect for watching the fireworks shows.' These independent, detailed descriptions indicate that some units in the building enjoy clear coastline/shoreline vistas. Buyers searching for coastal or shoreline outlooks should treat this as an available view type in this building.

One recent listing clearly describes 'expansive ... sunset views stretching toward the Leeward side,' providing direct evidence of sunset views from at least some high-floor units. Combined with 1/10 MLS view_descriptions including SUNSET and no contradictory NONE entries, this supports sunset as a real, building-level view option. Buyers seeking evening or sunset views should consider this building’s higher-floor units.
No analysis available
The public remarks explicitly mention that views are 'perfect for watching the fireworks shows,' indicating fireworks can be viewed from the building/units.
No analysis available
At least 4 separate listings describe the building as having a resident or on-site property manager, using phrases like 'resident manager', 'on-site property manager', and 'well maintained building with resident manager'. These references come from different remark sets and are consistent with the MLS RESMAN amenity, indicating a staffed on-site manager for the building.
