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.

I searched for owner-occupancy figures and phrases like "80% owner occupied," "majority owner occupied," and "highly owner occupied." The remarks mention an original owner and that one unit has never been rented, but that does not provide a building-wide owner-occupancy rate.
The remarks directly confirm the elevator count with an explicit reference to "3 keyed elevators." This matches the current building context and is consistent across the listing remarks where elevator access is discussed.
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.

Across the provided listings, there are zero explicit mentions of cable TV, cable service, or HOA cable being included in the fees. The current MLS data only shows CABTV on 3 of 20 listings, which is too sparse to treat as a building-wide included amenity.
Common area electricity appears to be a building feature at 909 Kapiolani. The current MLS data shows OTCOEX in 18 of 20 listings, which is a very strong building-level signal, and the public remarks do not contradict it. This looks consistent across multiple listings rather than a one-off agent note.

Hot water is very likely not included in the maintenance fee for this building. The MLS pattern is the opposite of a building-supplied hot-water setup: only 1 of 20 listings shows HOTWAT, while many list WTRHTR, and multiple remarks mention a unit water heater or a new water heater. That combination is strong evidence against this feature.

No analysis available
Sewer inclusion is strongly supported at 909 Kapiolani. The current MLS data shows SEWER in 18 of 20 listings, which is a clear recurring pattern across the building. Public remarks do not mention sewer directly, but nothing in the remarks contradicts the MLS evidence.
Water appears to be included in the maintenance fee for this building. The current MLS data shows WATER in 18 of 20 listings, which is a strong and repeated building-level signal. Public remarks do not suggest otherwise, so the MLS evidence is persuasive.
Strong building-level evidence supports BBQ amenities. Roughly 15+ current remarks mention phrases like “BBQs,” “BBQ area,” “BBQ stations,” “BBQ pavilions,” and “BBQ grills,” which aligns with the MLS history showing BBQ in 19/20 listings. This looks consistent across multiple agents rather than a copy-paste outlier.
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.

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.
Strong, repeated evidence across many listings supports an exercise room/fitness center. Multiple remarks explicitly reference 'fitness center,' 'gym,' 'exercise room,' and 'exercise facility,' suggesting this is a shared building amenity rather than a one-off agent error.
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.
Strong, repeated evidence that the building offers patio/deck-type outdoor space. Across many current listings, agents mention "private lanai," "open lanai," "spacious lanai," and an "amenity deck," showing this is not a one-off mention. The consistency across many listings suggests the feature is real and broadly available rather than a copy-paste error.

Moderate-to-strong evidence supports a shared recreation area/amenity deck. Remarks mention an 'upgraded amenity deck,' 'open play areas,' and similar shared spaces, which aligns with the recreation area feature.
The building clearly offers a recreation/party room amenity. Current remarks repeatedly cite “party room,” “recreation room,” “rec room,” and even a “large capacity rec room for hosting gatherings,” matching the MLS history of 13/20 listings. Evidence is strong and consistent across multiple listings.
There is no convincing evidence of an on-site restaurant or café in the building. The remarks repeatedly mention proximity to dining and restaurants nearby, but none describe a building-operated restaurant or in-house dining facility. The MLS checkbox appearances look like likely copy/paste errors.
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 clearly a building feature, not just an isolated claim, with many listings mentioning it across different units and agents. At least 8 separate remark blocks reference storage directly, including specific details like a numbered storage unit, a parking-level storage locker, and multiple storage rooms, which strongly supports that storage units/lockers are available in the building.
I searched for surfboard storage-related terms such as surf storage, board storage, or bike-and-surfboard storage. The remarks mention private storage rooms/lockers and general storage, but nothing specifically about surfboard storage facilities.
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.
The building appears to have a trash chute system, supported by the high MLS frequency and at least one explicit remark mentioning 'trash shoot.' The evidence is consistent enough to treat this as a true building amenity.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Whirlpool/hot tub/spa access is clearly present in the building amenities. Current remarks repeatedly mention “hot tub,” “Jacuzzi,” “spa,” and “whirlpool,” with the MLS history showing 13/20 listings marked for WHIRLP. This is one of the most consistently confirmed amenities.
The evidence for a building pool is overwhelming. Well over 20 current listing remarks mention it, using consistent language such as 'pool,' 'swimming pool with spa,' and 'lap pool,' often alongside other shared amenities like jacuzzi, BBQ, and fitness center. This appears to be a stable building amenity repeatedly echoed across multiple agents rather than a copy-paste mistake.
No analysis available
I searched for explicit salt-pool wording such as 'salt water pool' or 'saltwater pool.' The remarks confirm a pool, hot tub, and spa/jacuzzi, but never identify the pool as saltwater.
Strong, consistent evidence supports in-unit laundry at 909 Kapiolani. The current remarks mention it across many listings, including explicit phrases such as "washer/dryer in unit," "in unit washer/dryer," "stackable W/D," and "washer, dryer," suggesting this is not a copy-paste anomaly but a real and repeated unit feature. The historical MLS data also shows 20/20 listings with washer/dryer included, reinforcing very high confidence.
No analysis available
I looked for terms like coin laundry, coin-op, quarters, card-operated laundry, or laundry fees. The remarks repeatedly mention in-unit washer/dryer instead, and do not indicate any paid community laundry facility.
I searched the remarks for references to laundry rooms on each floor, floor-specific laundry facilities, or similar wording. The listings only mention in-unit washer/dryer, storage, and general amenities, so there is no public remark evidence for community laundry on every floor.
No analysis available
Assigned/reserved parking is strongly supported across the listing set. Multiple remarks explicitly say 'assigned parking stall,' 'reserved parking stall,' '2 assigned parking stalls,' and '2 full-sized side-by-side parking stalls,' showing this is not a copy-paste anomaly. The evidence is consistent across many agents and matches the strong MLS history.
Covered parking is strongly supported across the listing history and current remarks. At least 10+ listings explicitly mention "covered parking stall(s)," "covered parking," or "covered garage," including phrases like "2 full-size... covered parking stalls" and "1 assigned covered parking stall." This looks consistent across multiple agents, so it is not just copy-paste MLS data.
I looked for deeded-parking wording like deeded, owned stall, or parking included in deed. The remarks only describe assigned, reserved, or covered stalls, so deeded parking is not confirmed.
No analysis available
I searched for any parking charge, rental fee, or monthly stall cost. The remarks describe the parking type and count, but no separate fee is stated.
Guest parking is clearly supported in the remarks and by the MLS pattern. Multiple listings mention 'ample guest parking,' 'lots of guest parking,' 'plenty of guest parking,' and even a specific count of 'ten guest parking spaces.' The repeated language across many listings makes this a strong building-level feature.
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.
Clear evidence that some units use tandem parking: 8 of 20 MLS entries list TANDEM and multiple public remarks explicitly say 'tandem' or 'tandem parking stalls.' This indicates tandem configuration is available for certain units in the building.
No analysis available
I looked for parking waitlist or waiting-list language. The remarks mention guest parking and occasional availability for rental stalls, but nothing about a formal waitlist.
No analysis available
I looked for card/fob access language such as key card entry, electronic access, or card reader systems. The remarks do say the building is secure and mention keyed elevators, but that is not explicit evidence of a card/fob security system.
Security guard service is strongly supported across the building, with 17/20 listings showing the amenity and numerous remarks confirming it. Multiple agents independently describe '24-hr security,' '24 hour security,' 'security patrol,' and a 'secured building,' which makes this a high-confidence building feature rather than a copy-paste artifact.
One listing directly states 'security patrol,' which is strong public-remark evidence that the building has patrol service. This is consistent with other security-related descriptions like 24-hour security and a secure building.
No analysis available
No analysis available
This feature is very strongly supported: dozens of listings mention split AC in explicit terms, including phrases like 'split AC units in every room,' '3 split AC units,' 'split A/C,' and 'brand-new split AC unit.' The consistency across many different remarks and agents indicates this is a real and common building/unit feature, not an MLS checkbox error.
No analysis available
Strong building-level evidence supports concrete construction. Historical MLS data shows 17 of 20 listings marked CONCRE, while the current public remarks focus on unit upgrades and amenities and do not raise any contradiction. This appears to be consistent, repeated MLS data rather than a one-off agent entry.
There is moderate MLS support for double-wall construction, with 11 of 20 listings marked DOUWAL. However, none of the provided public remarks explicitly describe double-wall construction, so this looks more like checkbox-based MLS data than verified listing commentary. Keep it as a tentative building feature, not a highly confirmed one.
No analysis available
No analysis available
There is only moderate MLS support for steel-frame construction, with 9 of 20 listings showing STEFRA, but the public remarks never explicitly mention steel framing. The repeated remarks instead focus on unit finishes, views, amenities, and insurance, which suggests the steel-frame checkbox may be copy-pasted or unreliable.
Concrete slab foundation is not substantiated by the public remarks and appears in only 2 of 20 MLS entries. The low frequency suggests the checkbox may be inconsistent or copied, rather than reflecting a confirmed building-wide characteristic. This feature should not be considered verified from the available evidence.

No analysis available
Above-ground construction is not supported by the remarks and appears only in 2 of 20 MLS records. That is too little evidence to treat as a reliable building feature, especially given how often MLS checkboxes can be copied without verification. I would not rely on this feature for the building.
No analysis available
No analysis available
I searched for STR-permitted language, legal vacation rental references, NUC/TVU mentions, and similar clues. None were found in the remarks, so STR allowance is not supported by the public listings.
I looked for hotel pool references such as hotel rental program, managed by hotel, Hilton pool, or similar branding. There is no evidence of any hotel pool program here, and because STR is not supported, this must be false.
I searched for language showing mandatory participation, such as required to rent, cannot opt out, or must be in a rental program. No such language appears in the remarks, and there is no support for STR or a hotel pool.
No analysis available
No analysis available
I searched for leasehold language such as lease expires, ground lease ends, renewed through, or a specific expiration year, but found nothing. Without an explicit year in the remarks, this remains unknown.
The remarks directly confirm VA financing approval for the building. I found a clear positive mention and no conflicting statements in the listings.
The public remarks repeatedly describe the building as fully insured, including explicit phrases like "100% hurricane insurance" and "100% insured." This is strong direct evidence that the HOA/master policy provides full building insurance coverage.
Strong building-level evidence confirms fire sprinklers. At least several current public remarks explicitly say 'fire sprinklers' or 'fire sprinklered,' which aligns with the historically high MLS amenity match (14/20 listings). The repeated mentions across multiple listings suggest this is a real shared building feature, not a copy-paste anomaly.
I searched the remarks for explicit references to fire/life safety evaluation pass status, FLSE, fire safety certification, and life safety compliance. I found only mentions of fire sprinklers/fire sprinklered, which indicate safety features but do not confirm the building passed a fire/life safety evaluation.
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 strongly supported across the listing set. At least 13 of 20 current MLS entries reference ocean-related views, and the remarks repeatedly use phrases like 'ocean view,' 'panoramic ocean views,' and 'unobstructed ocean views.' This appears consistent across multiple agents rather than a one-off copy-paste error.
Mountain views are clearly present in the building. Roughly 11 of 20 current MLS entries reference mountain-related views, and the remarks include direct calls such as 'mountain views,' 'Mauka views,' and 'unobstructed... mountain views.' The pattern is repeated by multiple listings and looks reliable.
No analysis available
City views are extremely well established for this building. Nearly all current MLS view descriptions include city-related language, and the remarks repeatedly confirm it with phrases like 'city views,' 'city skyline views,' and 'cityscape views.' This is very high-confidence and consistent across many 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 real and recurring feature of the building. About 7 of 20 current MLS listings reference sunset-related views, and the remarks repeatedly mention 'sunset views' or invite buyers to 'enjoy the sunset.' This is strong multi-listing support, not a single isolated mention.
No analysis available
I searched for direct wording such as 'view fireworks from unit,' 'watch fireworks from the lanai,' or similar. The remarks emphasize ocean, city, mountain, and sunset views, but do not explicitly say residents can see Friday night fireworks from the building.
No analysis available
Evidence strongly supports an on-site resident manager. One current remark directly says 'resident manager,' while another references 'a friendly residence office staff,' and the MLS checkbox history is already strong at 16/20 listings. The consistency across listings indicates a genuine building-level staffed management feature rather than isolated agent copy-paste.
