909 Kapiolani
Preliminary Information – Full Audit Pending
This buildings features were determined from publicly available data, including MLS listings. While we cross-referenced additional data sources, it still likely contains incomplete or inaccurate information, as it has not yet been personally verified.
Once a building has been fully audited, this page will be replaced with an in-depth analysis featuring verified details and photos of every key feature.
Until then, we provide a data‑driven overview that blends statistical analysis of the checkbox selections agents make in MLS with an AI‑powered read of their public remarks—yielding a clearer picture of the building than raw listings alone.
If this building is important to your search, you can help prioritize it for a full audit by requesting one below. To see what a complete report looks like, check out the example full report.

The penthouse listing is on floor 35, and the highest MLS floor field is also 35. County and state records list 33 floors, which is lower than the established penthouse floor.
The Hawaii Real Estate Branch registration lists 228 total units for this single-building registration, which is authoritative for that registration. The county reconciled figure is 232, so it is set aside because the independent sources conflict.
Owner occupancy from AOUO registration(s) 5205. Refreshed by Real_Estate_Scraper/reb_registry/propagate_owner_occupancy.py, which this lock does not block.
The remarks explicitly confirm that the building has three elevators, matching the current value. No contradictory elevator count was found.
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.

None of the provided listings explicitly mention cable TV or cable being included in maintenance fees. CABTV appears in only 3 of 20 current MLS records, without supporting remarks from multiple agents, so the feature is omitted as likely checkbox error.
Common-area electricity is supported by OTCOEX in 19 of 20 listings. No listing explicitly discusses common-area electric, but the highly consistent MLS pattern across many records strongly supports inclusion.

Hot water is very unlikely to be included in the maintenance fee. Only 1/20 listings checks HOTWAT, while 15/20 identify WTRHTR; remarks also mention a "new water heater" and "brand-new ... water heater," reinforcing that units have their own heaters.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Sewer is listed in the association fee inclusions for 19 of 20 listings. Public remarks do not explicitly quote sewer inclusion, but the consistent multi-listing MLS data provides strong building-level support.
Water is included in the association fee data for 19 of 20 listings. Although the public remarks rarely state this directly, the consistent pattern across numerous listings strongly supports the feature.
BBQ facilities are repeatedly confirmed across the remarks, including "BBQ cabanas," "BBQ areas," "BBQ stations," "BBQ pavilions," and "BBQ grills." The evidence is widespread and consistent across many listings and clearly represents a shared building amenity.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Car wash facilities are supported by both MLS history and current remarks. One listing explicitly mentions a “car wash station,” and the historical record shows 14/20 listings with the car wash amenity checked. This is a credible shared building feature.
No analysis available
No listings explicitly mention concierge service, concierge staff, or front desk service. Several remarks mention a resident manager or friendly residence office staff, but these are not concierge services; the single CONCIE checkbox appears unsupported and likely reflects copy-paste or incorrect MLS data.
No analysis available
There is no meaningful remark evidence for a doorman or lobby attendant in the listings reviewed. Only 1/20 MLS entries check DOORMA, and the descriptions consistently focus on security, parking, and amenities without mentioning any attendant service, so this is likely a mistaken MLS checkbox.
Exercise amenities are strongly confirmed across many listings, including references to a "fitness center," "gym," "exercise room," "real gym with barbell bench press and cardio machines," and a "1st floor gym." The consistency across multiple listing descriptions supports this as a building-wide amenity rather than isolated copy-paste.
No analysis available
Evidence supports a shared meeting/community room type amenity. Multiple remarks refer to a “community room,” “meeting room,” “private room for parties,” and “party and gathering rooms,” aligning with the MLS history of 11/20 listings. The wording varies, but the underlying amenity is consistently described.
Patio/deck-type outdoor space is strongly confirmed across the building. At least 15 of 20 current listings carry the PATDEC/COVPAT amenity, while numerous remarks explicitly mention a “private lanai,” “45 sq ft lanai,” “tiled lanai,” “larger open lanai,” or “spacious lanai,” indicating consistent evidence from multiple listings rather than a single copied remark.

Several listings refer to an "amenities deck," "upgraded amenity deck," "recreation deck," "open play areas," and "outdoor landscaped areas." These repeated descriptions support a shared recreation area, even though the amenity is described with several different labels.
The building's shared gathering space is confirmed by multiple descriptions using phrases such as "recreation room," "party room," "community room," "meeting and party room," and "large capacity rec room." Although agents use varied terminology, the references consistently describe the same amenity.
There is no convincing evidence that 909 Kapiolani contains an in-building restaurant or café. Remarks mention proximity to "world-class dining," "restaurants," and "many eateries," but do not describe on-site dining, indicating the MLS checkbox is likely incorrect or copied from location-related text.
No analysis available
No supporting evidence: none of the provided public remarks (0/20) mention 'sauna', 'steam room', or similar. Given prior low historical confidence and the complete absence of any sauna references in multiple agent remarks, the sauna amenity is likely incorrect in MLS checkbox fields and is omitted.
Storage is strongly confirmed across numerous listings, with at least 10 separate remarks explicitly mentioning storage units, storage rooms, or lockers, often including unit numbers or sizes. The evidence appears across different units and agents and aligns with the MLS data showing storage in both building amenities and unit features, indicating this is a legitimate building offering rather than isolated copy-paste.
The listings mention private storage units and external storage lockers associated with units or parking areas. No dedicated surfboard storage facility is described.
There is no meaningful evidence that the building has tennis court facilities. Current remarks never mention tennis courts, and the only MLS checkbox support is 1/20 listings, which is too sparse to trust. This appears to be an agent checkbox artifact rather than a real amenity.
Trash chute service is supported by the current checkbox appearing on 17 of 20 listings and by direct remarks identifying a "trash chute" and a "trash shoot." The spelling variation appears to be an agent error, not evidence of a different feature.

No analysis available
The amenity is repeatedly confirmed with phrases including "hot tub," "Jacuzzi," "pool with spa," "pool/whirlpool," and "whirlpool." These references occur across many listings and clearly establish a shared whirlpool or spa facility.
The pool is overwhelmingly confirmed across the building: 20/20 current listings include pool-related MLS amenities, and numerous remarks from multiple listings explicitly mention a pool or swimming pool. Key phrases include "heated pool," "swimming pool with spa," "lap pool," and "resort-style amenities including a pool," indicating a shared building amenity rather than isolated copy-paste.
Evidence for a heated pool is limited: 1/20 current listings includes the HEAPOO MLS amenity, while no listing explicitly describes the swimming pool as heated. The frequent references to hot tubs, jacuzzis, and spas confirm adjacent warm-water amenities but do not independently verify that the pool itself is heated.
A building pool is clearly documented and consistent with the building context. No public remark confirms that the pool is saltwater.
In-unit laundry is strongly and consistently supported across the listings. At least 12 remarks explicitly mention the feature, using phrases such as 'in-unit washer and dryer,' 'washer/dryer in unit,' and 'in-unit laundry.' The evidence appears across multiple listing descriptions and is consistent with the current MLS data showing WASHER/DRYER in inclusions for all 20 listings.
No analysis available
The remarks consistently refer to in-unit washers and dryers. No evidence was found that the building has community laundry or that any laundry service requires payment.
The listings repeatedly mention private in-unit laundry, but do not describe community laundry facilities. No evidence was found for laundry on each floor or floor-by-floor laundry rooms.
No analysis available
Assigned parking is strongly supported across the listing set, with at least 10 remarks using phrases such as "assigned parking stall," "2 assigned parking stalls," "reserved parking stall," "prime parking stall," and "assigned covered parking." The evidence appears across multiple listings and agents, including both one- and two-parking units, confirming that the building offers assigned parking.
Covered parking is documented in at least 10 remarks, including "two covered parking stalls," "assigned parking stall in a secured garage," "2 Gated Garage Covered Parking," and "one covered parking stall." The very strong MLS prevalence and repeated descriptions across agents confirm that the building offers covered parking.
Multiple listings confirm that units have assigned or included parking stalls, including tandem and side-by-side stalls. However, assigned or included parking does not establish deeded ownership, and no explicit deeded-parking language was found.
No analysis available
References to additional stalls for rent or purchase were found, including a statement that stalls regularly become available for rent. No specific monthly parking charge was stated.
Guest parking is explicitly mentioned in at least 9 listings, with phrases including "guest parking," "ample guest parking," "plenty of guest parking," and "ten guest parking spaces." The feature is repeatedly described across multiple agents and is consistent with the historically high-confidence finding.
There is solid evidence that parking/access is secured. Several listings explicitly mention "secured garage," "secure building," "secure building access," "24-hour security," and even "keyed elevators," which supports controlled access to the building/parking area. The evidence is repeated across many remarks and appears to be genuine rather than a one-off MLS checkbox.
Tandem parking is explicitly documented in at least 5 remarks, including "2-covered parking stall (tandem)," "2 Gated Garage Covered Parking (tandem)," "2 covered parking stalls (tandem)," and "assigned tandem parking." Although it applies only to some units, the repeated MLS and remark evidence confirms that the building offers tandem parking.
No analysis available
The remarks discuss assigned parking, guest parking, and possible additional stalls for rent or purchase. They do not describe a building-wide parking waitlist system.
No analysis available
The listings repeatedly describe security, secured entry, and keyed elevators. These statements do not establish a card- or fob-based access system, and no explicit card-access terminology was found.
At least 11 listings explicitly mention building security service, including "security guards," "24-hour security," "24-hr security," and "security patrol." The feature is supported across multiple agents and aligns with the strong MLS checkbox evidence (17/20), so it is not likely to be simple copy-paste error.
The public remarks directly identify security patrol service. This explicit statement, supported by repeated references to building security, provides high-confidence evidence that patrol service exists.
No analysis available
No analysis available
At least 20 listings explicitly mention split AC or equivalent wording, including “split AC units in every room,” “3 split AC units,” “split A/C for each room,” and “quiet, energy-efficient split A/C units are installed throughout.” The evidence is overwhelmingly consistent across many listings, and the 19/20 current MLS inclusion rate strongly confirms that 909 Kapiolani offers split AC units.
No analysis available
No provided public remarks explicitly mention concrete construction. However, CONCRE appears in 18 of 20 current listings and was present in 17 of 20 historically, indicating strong, consistent building-level evidence rather than a single agent's copy-paste entry.
None of the listings explicitly refer to double-wall construction, two walls, or similar wording. Current MLS support is moderate at 12 of 20 listings, but the lack of corroborating remarks and prior medium confidence make inclusion premature.
No analysis available
Zero of the provided remarks mention masonry, stucco, or masonry-and-stucco construction. MASSTU is present in only 1 of 20 current listings, providing insufficient evidence that this is a reliable building feature.
None of the provided listings mention a steel frame or steel-frame construction. STEFRA appears in only 8 of 20 current listings, with previously low confidence and no corroborating remarks, suggesting possible inconsistent checkbox usage.
None of the provided remarks describe a concrete slab foundation or solid concrete foundation. SLAB is present in only 2 of 20 current MLS entries, matching the prior low-confidence assessment and indicating inadequate validation.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Zero listings mention above-ground construction. ABOGRO appears in only 3 of 20 current MLS records, consistent with the previously low-confidence assessment and insufficient to establish this feature.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Some listings describe the property as suitable for an investment or second home, but those statements do not establish short-term-rental permission. No explicit STR approval or prohibition was found in the remarks.
No hotel pool or hotel rental program was identified in the public remarks. Because short-term-rental permission was not established, this feature is also false under the prerequisite rule.
The remarks contain no evidence of a hotel rental pool or mandatory participation requirement. Since STR permission and hotel-pool participation were not established, mandatory participation is false.
No analysis available
No analysis available
The remarks were searched for leasehold terminology, lease expiry dates, ground-lease language, and renewal information. No specific lease-expiration year was found, so the value remains unknown.
The remarks directly confirm that 909 Kapiolani is VA approved. No conflicting financing statements were found.
The building is repeatedly described as having 100% or fully covered hurricane insurance. These consistent explicit statements provide strong evidence that the building is fully insured, although the remarks specifically emphasize hurricane coverage.
At least 11 current listings explicitly mention fire sprinklers or equivalent wording, including "fire sprinklered," "fire sprinklers," and "sprinklers." The evidence is strong across multiple remarks and is consistent with the 16/20 current MLS amenity records and previously high-confidence building evidence.
The remarks repeatedly reference fire sprinklers or the building being fire-sprinklered. However, no statement such as FLSE passed, fire safety certified, life safety compliant, or passed fire inspection appears, so the feature cannot be confirmed.
Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.
No analysis available
Ocean views are consistently documented across the listing set, with at least 13 of 20 MLS records mentioning OCEAN. Multiple independent remarks explicitly describe ocean or coastline views, indicating this is a legitimate building feature rather than isolated or copied checkbox data.
Mountain views are strongly supported across the building, appearing in 11 of 20 current MLS view descriptions and repeatedly confirmed in remarks by multiple agents. Key phrases include 'mountain views,' 'Mauka views,' 'unobstructed mountain views,' and 'gorgeous mountain and ocean views,' indicating this is not merely copied checkbox data.
No analysis available
City views are one of the most consistently validated building features, appearing in 18 of 20 current MLS view descriptions. Multiple remarks explicitly mention 'city views,' 'cityscape views,' 'city skyline views,' and panoramic city views, providing strong confirmation across listings.
Coastline views are less commonly advertised than ocean or city views, but they are explicitly mentioned in at least one remark. The strongest language is 'breathtaking ocean, coastline, mountain, city, and sunset views,' which directly supports the feature. Because it appears in fewer listings, confidence is solid but below the top-tier features.

Sunrise is not widely advertised in the MLS data, but there is explicit remark-level support. One listing states the home offers 'both sunrise and sunset,' which suggests east-facing/sunrise views or exposure. The evidence is limited, so confidence is lower than for ocean, mountain, city, or sunset.
Sunset views are a recurring building feature, supported by 9 of 20 current MLS records and multiple explicit remarks. Listings describe sunset visibility, sunset views, and lanai sunset enjoyment, providing sufficient confirmation even though the feature is orientation- or unit-dependent.
No analysis available
The listings mention ocean, city, mountain, sunset, Blaisdell Center, and entertainment-related views or locations. None confirms a fireworks view from the building or its units.
No analysis available
The building has a resident manager, supported by 16/20 current MLS listings and multiple explicit remarks. Key phrases include "on-site resident manager," "resident manager," and "friendly residence office staff," appearing across several listings and agents rather than only as an isolated checkbox.
