I searched for owner-occupancy figures such as '80% owner occupied,' 'majority owner occupied,' or similar phrasing, but found none. The remarks mention tenant-occupied units and owner references, but nothing that quantifies the building's owner-occupancy rate.
I searched the remarks for an explicit number of elevators or wording that would confirm the building has multiple elevators, but found nothing. One listing mentions a unit being 'right to the elevators,' which confirms elevators exist but does not provide a count.

Cable TV inclusion is supported by building-level MLS data in 13 of 20 listings, and the public remarks are consistent with a bulk-service style fee. Several agents explicitly reference an added cable-related monthly charge, which suggests the MLS checkbox is being populated consistently rather than copied blindly.
Common area electricity appears to be an included association expense across most listings, with 15 of 20 current MLS entries marked OTCOEX. The remarks do not directly address this item, but the high rate across multiple listings is consistent with a building-level inclusion.

Only 1/20 current MLS listings mark HOTWAT while many listings list WTRHTR (individual water heaters) in inclusions, and remarks describe in-unit appliances with no mention of building-provided hot water. This indicates hot water is not included in the maintenance fee.
Internet service inclusion is strongly supported by both MLS data and listing remarks. The building-level pattern is reinforced by multiple explicit references to bulk internet service, making this a reliable shared-fee feature for the building.
No analysis available
Sewer inclusion appears to be a stable building feature, with 18 of 20 current MLS listings indicating SEWER. The remarks do not contradict this, and the near-universal MLS pattern supports treating it as included.
Water inclusion is strongly supported at the building level, with 18 of 20 listings marking WATER in association fees. The consistency across listings suggests this is a standard included utility rather than an isolated agent entry.
Very strong evidence for BBQ/grilling amenities. Remarks cite "BBQ areas," "sky deck with barbecue grills," "BBQ pavilions," and "BBQ grills" across many listings, matching the 20/20 MLS amenity data. This is a stable shared building amenity.

The building clearly offers a dog park/dog run or similar pet area. Multiple listings mention a "dog run," "dog park," "dog play area," and "7th floor pet walk," while 18/20 MLS listings show DGPRK. This is strong, repeated evidence from several sources.
No analysis available
Strong building-level evidence for an exercise room/fitness center. Multiple remarks mention a "fitness center," "gym," "workout rooms," or "fully equipped fitness center," and the MLS amenities show EXEROO in all listings. This appears to be consistently copied and confirmed across many listings.
No analysis available
Strong evidence: multiple listings reference 'meeting-working spaces', 'meeting rooms', 'conference/meeting rooms', and co-working/business spaces. These amenities are described across different agent remarks, indicating available shared meeting/conference spaces.
Strong, consistent evidence across multiple agent remarks indicates the building offers shared outdoor spaces: numerous listings reference "sky lanais", "sky deck", "amenity deck" and "recreation deck" (over a dozen separate remarks). Mentions appear in listings from different agents and repeatedly describe BBQ areas, outdoor lounges, and panoramic rooftop/sky lanais, supporting inclusion of patio_deck as a building amenity.
No listings' public remarks mention a 'jogging path', 'walking path', or 'running trail'. Although a small number of MLS entries have WAJOPA checked (3/20), the remarks contain zero references and there is no prior evidence—insufficient support to include this as a building feature.

There is strong evidence for a shared recreation area/amenity deck. Listings describe an "8th floor amenity deck," "recreation deck," "large recreational area," and sky lanai/lounge spaces, and 18/20 MLS entries include RECARE. This looks like a core building amenity rather than a unit-specific feature.
The building appears to offer recreation room-type amenities. Remarks reference "Recreation Rooms," "rec room," "party room," and other multipurpose indoor amenity spaces in multiple listings, with 16/20 MLS listings showing RECROO. This is consistent enough to treat as a shared building feature.

Multiple units are advertised with a "separate storage unit," "large storage unit," "storage room right down the hall," and "storage lockers," and MLS shows STORAG/ADDLVSTORAG for several listings.
There are several direct mentions of surfboard storage facilities in the public remarks. The listings repeatedly reference surfboard storage/racks, often alongside bike storage, which is strong evidence for this feature.
No analysis available
Trash chute appears likely to be present based on the MLS data, which shows TRACHU in 17/20 listings. Public remarks rarely mention a trash chute explicitly, so confidence is lower than for the other amenities, but there is no sign that the feature was removed.

Confidence 90%: Only 2/20 MLS listings check a pool-related amenity, and across extensive amenity descriptions in 20+ remarks, none mention any pool, which is highly unlikely if a pool existed.
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for salt-water pool language such as 'saltwater pool' or 'salt pool' and found none. The building context also indicates there is no pool, so there is no support for a salt pool feature.
Building-level evidence is strong: historical MLS data indicates 19/20 listings include washer/dryer, and multiple current remarks explicitly state "in-unit washer and dryer", "in-unit washer/dryer", and even "NEW Washer-Dryer installed in 2025". The feature is confirmed across numerous agent remarks rather than appearing to be a single copy-paste error, so buyers searching for in-unit laundry should expect that some units in Ke Kilohana offer it.
No analysis available
I looked for public-remark language indicating paid community laundry, such as coin laundry, card-operated machines, or quarters, and found nothing. Some units mention in-unit washers/dryers, but that is not evidence of paid community laundry.
I searched the public remarks for phrases like 'laundry on every floor,' 'laundry on each floor,' and similar wording, but found none. The listings instead mention in-unit washer/dryer or a separate laundry room, which does not support community laundry on every floor.
No analysis available
Assigned parking is strongly supported across many listings and multiple agents. Current remarks explicitly mention "assigned stall," "covered assigned parking stall," "reserved" parking, and several units with "2 side-by-side" or "2 standard" stalls, showing this is a real building feature rather than a copy-paste artifact. The evidence is consistent and frequent, so buyers can rely on assigned/reserved parking being available in the building.
Covered parking is overwhelmingly supported across the listing set. The remarks repeatedly say "covered parking," "1 cover parking," and "2 covered parking stalls," while the MLS data shows covered/garage-type parking on all listings. This is consistent across many agents and listings, so the feature should be treated as firmly present.
I searched for explicit deeded/owned parking language such as "deeded parking," "owned stall," or "parking included in deed." The remarks only describe assigned, covered, oversized, or additional purchased stalls, which is not enough to call the parking deeded.
No analysis available
I looked for parking-specific fees, rental charges, or monthly parking costs and found none. The only recurring fees mentioned are unrelated items like internet/cable and Ward Village association dues.
Guest parking is supported: 12 of 20 MLS entries list GUEST and several remarks state "guest parking" or "plenty of guest parking". Multiple listings across different agents reference guest/visitor parking, providing solid corroboration.
13/20 MLS listings mark SECENT in parking_features, and remarks reference a "secure building," "secured entry," and 24/7 patrols, implying controlled access to parking areas.

I searched the remarks for "parking waitlist," "parking waiting list," or similar language and found nothing. The listings mention guest parking and multiple parking stalls, but no waitlist process.
No analysis available
I looked for card/fob access terms like keycard entry, fob access, or card reader and found no explicit references. The remarks do describe the building as secure and mention security services, but that is not the same as card-access security.
Security guard service is strongly supported across the listing set: historical MLS data shows 17 of 20 listings with SECGUA, and current remarks repeatedly mention security-related language. Examples include '24-hour security services,' '24/7 privately patrolled neighborhood,' 'secure building,' and 'secured entry,' indicating this is a real building-level amenity rather than a copy-paste anomaly.
The remarks clearly and repeatedly indicate patrol-based security, including private patrolling, roving patrols, and 24-hour security service. This is strong evidence that the building/community has security patrol service.

Strong building-level evidence that window air conditioning is available in Ke Kilohana / 988 Halekauwila. Multiple current remarks explicitly mention "window AC" or "window A/C unit" across many listings, and the historical MLS data already showed 17 of 20 listings including ACWIUN. The evidence appears consistent across multiple agents and is not just a single copy-paste remark.
Concrete construction is strongly supported for this building. Current MLS data shows 17 of 20 listings marked construction_materials=CONCRE, and historical records also indicated high confidence. The public remarks do not mention construction type explicitly, but there is no evidence of a change, so this remains a highly reliable building feature.

Although only 5 of 20 current listings explicitly check ABOGRO, historical data (high confidence) and widespread remarks referencing high-rise features—"41st floor", "sky lanais", "rooftop deck" and multiple high floors—support that the building is constructed above ground. Evidence appears consistent across many agent remarks rather than a single erroneous listing.

I searched for explicit short-term rental references and also for indicators that would imply no STR, such as 30-day minimums or owner-occupant-only language. The remarks contain no evidence that short-term rentals are allowed, so this is best treated as false based on the available public text.
I looked for hotel pool references such as "hotel rental pool," "managed by hotel," or brand-specific pool language and found none. Since the remarks do not indicate STR is allowed, this feature must also be false.
I searched for phrases like "mandatory hotel pool," "must participate," or "cannot opt out" and found none. Because the remarks do not establish STR eligibility in the first place, mandatory pool participation is also false.

I looked for leasehold language such as "lease expires YYYY," "ground lease ends," or renewal/extension dates, but nothing appeared in the remarks. With no explicit lease-expiry year provided, this remains unknown.
I searched the public remarks for phrases like "VA approved," "VA financing," and "VA loans accepted" and found none. The listings discuss parking, amenities, and unit features, but do not reference VA eligibility.
Multiple remarks explicitly describe the building as fully insured, including the exact phrase '100% Fully Insured for Hurricane Insurance.' That directly matches the feature definition for walls-in/full building insurance coverage.
Fire sprinklers appear to be a building-level feature supported by MLS data rather than repeated in remarks. 15 of 20 current listings have FIRSPR checked, and there is no contrary language in the remarks. This looks like consistent MLS evidence across multiple listings, even though agents do not explicitly describe the system.
I looked for public-remarks statements indicating a passed fire/life safety evaluation, fire safety certification, or a successful fire inspection. None of the listings included that kind of compliance language, so this remains unconfirmed.

Ocean views are clearly a building feature for Ke Kilohana / 988 Halekauwila, with many remarks confirming it. Across the provided listings, well over a dozen mention ocean or makai views in phrases like "wonderful ocean view," "makai-facing," "ocean views from all living areas," and "panoramic ocean and mountain views." The evidence is consistent across multiple agents and appears to reflect real building/unit exposure rather than copy-paste error.

Multiple listings describe city or downtown views for Ke Kilohana—phrases include "city and neighborhood vistas," "city views," and "downtown." At least 8 different public-remark blocks explicitly mention city/downtown views, and this is consistent across agents rather than isolated, supporting a high-confidence determination that the building offers city views.
One MLS view description uses COASTL, and remarks refer to expansive views across the "Honolulu waterfront," Ala Moana Beach Park, Magic Island, and Kewalo Basin Harbor, all of which imply visible shoreline/coastline.

I searched for remarks saying fireworks can be viewed from the units, lanai, or building, but found none. The remarks mention ocean, mountain, harbor, and sunset views, which are not the same as a fireworks view.

Resident manager is supported by both MLS checkbox data and public remarks. Multiple listings mention "on-site management," "resident manager," or "on-site manager," which aligns with the 14/20 RESMAN rate in current MLS data. The evidence appears consistent across multiple agents rather than a one-off copy-paste.
