Searched for explicit phrases like 'owner occupied', '% owner occupied', 'majority owner occupied', or a numeric owner-occupancy rate and found none. Keeping the existing 60% value with low confidence since only general mixed-use (owner/renter) comments are present without specific numbers.
Searched remarks for 'elevator', 'elevators', and 'lift' but found no references to elevator count. Keeping the existing value of 2 elevators with low confidence due to lack of confirming evidence, even though a 29-floor, 197-unit building might typically have more.
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.
Central air conditioning is specifically mentioned as included in the maintenance fee in many listings, and 19/20 MLS entries flag central AC in the association fee. This appears to be a consistent building-wide included utility rather than an isolated case.
Cable TV is repeatedly listed in the included utilities, and 19/20 MLS listings have cable in association_fee_includes. Multiple independent agents mention 'cable TV' or 'cable/Wi‑Fi' as part of the maintenance fee, indicating it is a standard building inclusion.
Remarks for several units state that the fee covers 'common area maintenance' or 'common elements' in addition to utilities, and 14/20 MLS records mark an additional common expense. This strongly implies that common area costs, including common-area electricity, are paid via the maintenance fee.
No analysis available
Electricity is specifically listed among the included utilities in many different agents' remarks, and 18/20 MLS entries show electricity in association_fee_includes. The pattern across multiple units confirms electricity is consistently covered by the maintenance fee.
Multiple listings list gas among the fee-covered utilities, e.g. 'The maintenance fee includes water, sewer, electricity, gas, cable TV, and Wi-Fi internet', 'Maintenance fee includes Electric, gas, hot water, water, cable TV, internet, WI FI, & central AC', and '2 spectrum DVR cable boxes, high speed internet, electricity, gas, hot water, sewer, garbage and central AC'. Together with 16/20 MLS entries checking GAS, this strongly indicates building-supplied gas is included in the HOA dues.
Hot water is repeatedly named as an included utility in the maintenance fee, with phrases like 'water, hot water, gas, electricity' appearing in multiple listings. Combined with 19/20 MLS records marking HOTWAT and no unit-level water heaters indicated, this is a stable building feature.
Internet service (often described as Wi‑Fi or high-speed internet) is consistently listed as part of the included utilities across many remarks, and 18/20 MLS records show internet in association_fee_includes. This indicates internet is a standard inclusion in the maintenance fee.
No analysis available
Sewer is specifically mentioned as included alongside water and other utilities in multiple independent listings, and 19/20 MLS entries flag sewer in the association fee. This strongly supports that sewer costs are consistently included in the maintenance fee.
Water is one of the most frequently mentioned included utilities in the remarks and appears in 19/20 MLS association_fee_includes fields. The consistency across many agents and units confirms that water is included in the maintenance fee for this building.
Across these ~33 listings, well over a dozen explicitly mention building BBQ amenities such as “BBQ areas,” “barbecue / recreation areas,” “BBQ spacious decks,” and even “5 built in bbq grills.” Amenities are repeatedly framed as shared features on the recreation decks for both towers, confirming building-level BBQ/grilling facilities. Combined with 20/20 MLS BBQ checkboxes and prior high confidence, this is a firmly established amenity.

Several listings explicitly mention a 'car wash area' or 'car wash' among the building amenities, and 12/20 MLS entries have CRWSH.
Across many listings describing pools, rec decks, BBQs, sauna, whirlpool, dog run, convenience store, and party space, none refer to a “clubhouse” or similar community-center facility. Given the low MLS checkbox frequency and complete absence of clubhouse language in otherwise thorough amenity write-ups, the building likely does not have a true clubhouse; some agents appear to have over-checked this box.
No analysis available
Amenities include 'dog run', 'pet play zone', and 'pet play area' in multiple remarks, indicating a dedicated pet exercise area.

Multiple recent listings explicitly describe shared outdoor areas, including a "large sundeck," "patio deck," and a "pool and jacuzzi patio area," as well as recreation decks connected to the pools, saunas, whirlpools, and BBQs. These descriptions come from numerous agents across both towers and align with MLS checkbox data (18/20 listings), indicating established, building-wide patio/deck amenities rather than a one-off or unit-specific feature.

Several remarks explicitly reference “recreation spaces,” “barbecue / recreation areas,” and “recreation deck” or “rec deck” with pools, Jacuzzi/whirlpool, sauna and BBQ stations. One unit notes direct access to the rec deck and another mentions “2 recreation decks with BBQ areas, spas and sauna,” showing extensive shared recreation areas. With 14/20 MLS entries listing RECARE, the presence of building-level recreation areas is very well supported.
One listing notes that residents can use a building “Party Space” along with the pools, BBQ and sauna, implying an indoor multi-purpose/entertainment room. With MLS amenities showing RECROO in 3/20 listings and this functional description, there is moderate evidence that a recreation/party room exists in the complex. While not mentioned in every listing, it appears to be a shared building facility.

Across these listings, the sauna is mentioned repeatedly and explicitly: phrases like “sauna,” “Jacuzzi, sauna & BBQ areas,” and “2 Jacuzzis and a sauna” appear in many different agents’ descriptions. It is always grouped with the pools, whirlpool/Jacuzzi, and BBQ on the recreation decks, indicating a common building sauna amenity. With universal MLS sauna checkboxes and strong corroborating remarks, this feature is firmly verified.
No analysis available
Multiple independent listings explicitly list surfboard storage as an amenity. This repeated, specific wording confirms that the building provides dedicated surfboard storage facilities.
No analysis available
Several listings explicitly list “trash chute” among building amenities, e.g., “car wash area, trash chute, bike storage, 24-7 security” and “car wash area, trash chute, and a convenient mini-mart on the ground level.” With 17/20 MLS entries including TRACHU and direct textual references, the presence of a building trash chute system is very well documented.

Many separate remarks list a whirlpool-type amenity: “whirlpool,” “Jacuzzi,” “2 Jacuzzis,” “hot tub,” or “spas” next to the pool and sauna, often noting residents can enjoy these in both towers. The whirlpool is repeatedly marketed as part of the resort-style amenity package rather than an in‑unit feature. Together with 19/20 MLS whirlpool checkmarks and prior high confidence, this strongly confirms a building whirlpool/hot tub amenity.
Multiple current listings (15+ in this set) explicitly mention shared building pools, often specifying two or heated pools across both towers (e.g., 'Amenities in both towers include Heated pools,' 'two heated pools (Ewa & DH Towers),' 'deck with pool'). This aligns with prior high-confidence data and consistent MLS amenity checkboxes, confirming that Aloha Towers offers a shared swimming pool amenity for residents.
Many listings (well over 10) clearly state that the building has heated pools, including 'two heated pools (Ewa & DH Towers)', 'Heated pools, Whirlpools, Sauna, BBQ spacious decks', and '2 heated swimming pools, 2 Jacuzzis and a sauna'. These consistent, detailed mentions from different listings and both towers strongly confirm that the building’s pools are heated.
I searched the remarks for 'salt water pool,' 'saltwater,' 'salt pool,' or 'saline' and found no such descriptions. Given only generic and 'heated' pool descriptions, there is no evidence that the pool is a salt water pool.
In-unit laundry is clearly a building feature: at least 15 different listings explicitly mention having an in-unit washer/dryer (e.g., 'convenient in-unit washer/dryer,' 'stack washer/dryer,' 'brand-new in-unit washer/dryer'). Current MLS data also shows 20/20 units with washer/dryer included, reinforcing that many units in Aloha Towers offer in-unit laundry. Buyers seeking condos with in-unit laundry would reasonably consider this building for that feature.
No analysis available
I looked for terms such as 'coin-op,' 'coin operated,' 'card-operated,' 'laundry fee,' or 'quarters' and found no references. While there is mention of a community commercial-sized W/D, there is no explicit indication that it is a paid/coin/card-operated system.
Remarks emphasize in-unit washer/dryers and a single community commercial-sized washer/dryer, not laundry rooms on each floor. I specifically searched for phrases like 'laundry on each floor,' 'laundry room on every floor,' and found none, so the building likely does not have community laundry on every floor.
No analysis available
Assigned parking is clearly standard in this building. At least 8 of the provided listings explicitly reference assigned stalls (e.g., 'one assigned parking stall', 'one covered/assigned parking stall', 'assigned covered parking stall', 'pet friendly with assigned parking'), and current MLS checkbox data (14/20) supports this across many agents. This pattern, combined with prior high confidence, confirms that units in the building have assigned/deeded stalls.
Covered parking is repeatedly and specifically advertised for this building. At least 10 listings refer to covered stalls or covered parking, including phrases like 'convenient covered parking stall on street level', 'one covered/assigned parking stall', 'assigned covered parking stall', 'deep covered stall', and 'covered parking (DH-219)'. With all 20 MLS records marking covered parking, this is a firmly established building feature.
Many units clearly include their own assigned/covered parking stalls, but this is consistent with assigned limited common elements rather than deeded ownership. Because no listing explicitly indicates that stalls are deeded or separately owned, parking is treated as not confirmed deeded.
No analysis available
I looked for language such as 'parking fee', '$X/month for parking', 'parking rental', or 'additional parking cost' and did not find any. Remarks emphasize that stalls are included with the units and discuss HOA/maintenance fees only, so any separate parking fee is unknown from these remarks.
Guest/visitor parking is clearly provided and promoted as an amenity. Well over 10 listings mention it directly, using phrases such as 'guest parking for visitors', 'guest parking in each building', 'with 9 guest parking stalls', 'ample guest parking', 'guest parking stalls', 'many guest parking', and 'Visitor Parking'. The consistency across many separate listings and agents confirms that the building offers designated guest parking.

I searched for 'parking waitlist', 'waiting list for parking', or similar phrasing and found no references. Since stalls are consistently advertised as included with units and no waitlist system is described, a formal parking waitlist cannot be confirmed and is assumed absent based on current remarks.
No analysis available
I looked specifically for 'key card access,' 'keycard entry,' 'fob access,' 'card reader,' or similar terms and did not find any. While the building clearly has robust security, the presence of a card/fob-based access system is not confirmed in the public remarks.
Many listings (well over 10) explicitly describe building security, using phrases like 'on-site security provides added peace of mind', 'Seasoned Resident Manager, 24 hour security', 'secured building ... 24-7 security', and 'Aloha Towers is a secure high-rise bldg with 24-Hr security'. Combined with MLS data showing SECGUA checked on 13/20 listings and consistent language across different agents, this strongly confirms that the building has staffed security guard service, likely on a 24/7 basis.
Frequent mentions of 24-hour and on-site security strongly support the existence of an active security presence, consistent with patrol or roving security. This aligns with the building’s described high level of security coverage.
No analysis available
Across these listings, well over twenty separate remarks explicitly reference central AC or central air, including phrases like 'maintenance fee includes central AC', 'two central AC units', 'two-zone central AC', and 'Central A/C'. The fact that central AC is repeatedly listed as an inclusion in the maintenance fee and is described consistently by many different agents indicates a building-wide central air conditioning system serving multiple units. Combined with 18/20 current unit_features and 20/20 inclusions showing ACCEN/CENAC, the evidence for central AC in this building is very strong.

Across 20 current MLS listings, 20/20 indicate concrete construction (CONCRE), consistent across multiple agents and both towers. While public remarks focus on amenities and location rather than structure, the building is a high-rise in Waikiki where reinforced concrete is the norm. The combination of unanimous MLS data and historical confirmation strongly supports concrete construction.
Double-wall construction is weakly and inconsistently indicated, with just 2 of 20 MLS listings checking DOUWAL and none of the remarks mentioning double walls. Considering the strong evidence that Aloha Towers is a standard concrete high-rise, double-wall construction is very likely not a true building-level feature.
1/20 MLS listings have HOLTIL in construction_materials, suggesting some portion (e.g., podium or lower levels) may use hollow tile, though remarks do not discuss materials.

Current MLS data show 7/20 listings with the ABOGRO (above-ground) construction flag, and remarks repeatedly call Aloha Towers a 'secure high-rise' or 'secured high rise' with ocean/city views from upper floors. These consistent descriptions across many agents confirm that the building is an above-ground high-rise structure. Together with earlier data, this supports keeping construction_above_ground as true with high confidence.

Remarks frame the building as residential/longer-term with at least one explicit 30-day minimum rental limitation, which by definition excludes short-term (sub-30-day) rentals. No listings reference hotel-style, nightly, or vacation rentals, strongly indicating STR is not allowed.
Amenities listed are typical condo features (pool, sauna, BBQ, security, mini-mart) with no mention of hotel operations or a rental pool. Since short-term rentals are not allowed, a hotel pool program is effectively ruled out.
Owners appear free to live in or rent their units long-term without any obligation to join a rental program. Combined with the lack of any hotel pool at all, this indicates there is no mandatory pool participation requirement.

I searched for phrases like 'leasehold', 'land lease', 'lease expires', 'lease to 20XX', and 'ground lease' but found none. Listings read like standard fee simple marketing with no lease-related disclosures. Without an explicit expiration or renewal year, the lease expiry is unknown.
Public remarks consistently describe the building as VA approved and welcoming VA buyers, clearly indicating that VA financing is accepted. This is reiterated across several listings, leaving little doubt about VA eligibility.
Several independent remarks clearly and repeatedly describe the building/association as 100% or fully insured, indicating comprehensive HOA building coverage. The consistency across many listings supports a high-confidence assessment that the building is fully insured.
No analysis available
Reviewed all remarks for terms like 'fire life safety evaluation', 'FLSE', 'fire inspection', 'fire safety certified', or similar and found none. Security and management are mentioned, but nothing specifically confirms a passed fire/life safety evaluation, so this is set to false by default.

Multiple independent listings describe ocean views in detail, including phrases like 'both ocean and city views', 'peekaboo ocean view', 'partial ocean view', and 'faces ocean-side'. Current MLS data (5/20 with OCEAN, none with NONE) and many remarks across different unit stacks and both towers confirm that Aloha Towers offers ocean-view units. Evidence is consistent over time and across agents, supporting ocean views as a reliable building feature.
Multiple listings across the building describe mountain views, including phrases like 'magnificent mountain views', 'open lanai with ocean, mountain and city views', and 'city, mountain and Ala Wai canal views'. Combined with MLS view_descriptions (3/20 with MOUNTA, 0 with NONE), this suggests that several units, not just a single penthouse, enjoy mountain outlooks. Buyers seeking mountain views would reasonably consider this building.
No analysis available
City views are repeatedly highlighted in recent listings with phrases like 'ocean and city views', 'Waikiki city views', 'breathtaking ocean and city views', and 'Magnificent panoramic city and ocean views'. These references span multiple stacks and unit types, and no listing reports 'no view', so city views clearly exist in a meaningful subset of units. This aligns with prior high-confidence data, supporting inclusion of city views as a building feature.

Remarks directly tie an individual unit’s ocean view to the ability to 'Enjoy Friday night fireworks.' This confirms that at least some units in the building have a fireworks view.

Multiple recent listings explicitly reference a resident manager, including phrases such as “Seasoned Resident Manager,” “secured building, resident manager,” and “24 Hour Security and an awesome Resident Manager.” Combined with MLS data showing 19 of 20 listings marked with RESMAN and prior high-confidence evidence, this strongly confirms that Aloha Towers continues to have an on-site resident manager. Evidence is consistent across many agents and appears to reflect the building’s long-standing staffing rather than a copy-paste error.
