I searched all remarks for explicit percentages or phrases indicating owner-occupancy levels (such as 'owner occupied', 'majority owner occupied', or a percent) and found none. Without an explicit remark, owner-occupancy percentage is unknown and cannot be inferred.
Listings reference upgraded or "brand new elevators," confirming the building has elevators, but no numeric count is provided in any remark. I searched for explicit phrases like '4 elevators', 'two elevators', or spelled-out numbers and found none. Per rules, cannot guess a numeric value without an explicit statement.

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.
I searched for terms like 'surfboard storage', 'board storage', and related storage mentions. The remarks note general storage and an 'exterior storage closet' or corridor storage but contain no explicit reference to surfboard-specific storage.
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
I searched pool-related language for 'salt water', 'saltwater', 'saline', etc. The public remarks list a pool and whirlpool/hot tub but contain no reference to a salt pool.
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
I searched for terms such as 'coin-op,' 'paid laundry,' 'card operated,' and similar. The remarks do not reference any paid community laundry facilities; instead they consistently note in-unit laundry.
I searched for phrases like 'laundry on each floor,' 'laundry room on every floor,' and similar. All remarks instead mention in-unit laundry (e.g., 'in-unit washer/dryer', 'stacked washer/dryer'), and there are no statements indicating community laundry on every floor.
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 five listings clearly mention covered parking or a covered/gated garage, showing that the building offers covered stalls rather than only open parking. This aligns with historical high-confidence data and current MLS coverage, confirming that covered parking is a building feature at 2040 Nuuanu.
At least one unit is clearly marketed with 'deeded' parking stalls, showing that parking can be owned with the unit in this building. This supports treating parking as deeded at the building level.

Searched remarks for 'parking fee', 'monthly parking', 'additional parking cost', or similar terms; listings describe deeded/assigned/covered/secured parking but do not specify any separate monthly fee. Fee is therefore 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
Searched for 'parking waitlist' or 'join waitlist' language but found none. Multiple listings indicate assigned or deeded stalls and guest parking, which suggests no waitlist system is described in the remarks.
No analysis available
The building is described as having 'secured access' with 'a new updated FOB system' and secured, gated parking, which clearly indicates card/fob-based entry. This directly matches the definition of a security card access system. Therefore, this feature exists with very high confidence.
No analysis available
I searched for 'security patrol,' 'roving security,' and similar phrases. The building appears to have secured access features and on-site management, but there is no evidence in the remarks of a security patrol service.

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.

Searched for 'short-term rental', 'STR', 'vacation rental', 'TVU', 'NUC', or minimum-night rules; none found. In absence of explicit STR allowance language, set to false (no evidence in remarks that STRs are allowed).
The building is described purely as a residential condominium with standard amenities, not as part of a hotel program. There is no evidence of any hotel rental pool participation.
There is no language about mandatory rental programs or required hotel pool participation. Given the lack of any such indication, participation in any rental program is not mandatory.

Searched remarks for phrases like 'lease expires', 'land lease to', 'leasehold expiring in', or specific years; found no references. Without any explicit leasehold language or a year, lease expiry is unknown.
The remarks clearly confirm that the building is VA approved, indicating VA financing is accepted. This is based on a direct statement in the public remarks.
I searched for phrases such as 'fully insured', 'full insurance', 'walls-in coverage', or 'comprehensive building insurance' and did not find an explicit statement that the HOA carries full/walls-in insurance. Although 'full hurricane insurance' is mentioned, it does not explicitly equate to HOA-provided full walls-in coverage, so no confirmation can be made from public remarks.
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.
Remarks note the building has sprinklers and in-unit sprinkler systems, but do not state that the building has "passed fire/life safety evaluation," "FLSE passed," or similar certification. I searched for terms like 'FLSE', 'fire life safety evaluation passed', 'passed fire inspection', and found none. Because FLSE status is only determined from explicit remarks, it is marked false with medium confidence.
Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.

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 remarks clearly state that the views are 'perfect for watching the fireworks shows,' which implies direct fireworks views from at least some units. This matches the definition of a building with fireworks views. Therefore, this feature is present with high confidence.
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.
