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.

I searched for explicit percentages such as "80% owner occupied" and descriptions such as "majority owner occupied" or "highly owner occupied." None of the remarks provide owner-occupancy information, so the value is unknown.
I searched for an explicit count such as "4 elevators," "four elevators," or "multiple elevators." The remarks confirm that elevators exist, but provide no count, so the numeric value remains unknown.

Cable TV inclusion is strongly supported by both the MLS pattern and current remarks. Multiple listings directly state that maintenance includes cable, and the building-level MLS data shows CABTV in 15 of 17 listings, suggesting this is a consistent association fee item rather than a one-off agent entry.
Common-area electricity/operating expense inclusion appears to be a building-wide HOA feature. The MLS data is strong at 13/16 listings with OTCOEX, and the remarks reinforce it by stating maintenance includes 'common areas,' which is consistent with a shared building expense rather than an isolated unit note.

Hot water does not appear to be included in the maintenance fee. The MLS pattern is decisive: 0/16 listings show HOTWAT, and the presence of WTRHTR in many listings suggests units have their own water heaters instead of building-supplied hot water. No remarks in the provided set explicitly contradict that pattern.
Internet inclusion is clearly confirmed in the remarks and supported by the MLS pattern. At least two listings spell out internet in the maintenance fee, and the building-level data shows INTSER in 12 of 17 listings, which is strong evidence this is a real recurring building feature.
No analysis available
Sewer is one of the most consistently confirmed fee inclusions for this building. The remarks directly mention sewer in the maintenance fee, and the MLS data is nearly unanimous at 16 of 17 listings, making this highly reliable.
Water inclusion is strongly supported by both remarks and MLS history. Multiple listings mention water in the maintenance fee, and the building-level MLS data shows WATER in 16 of 17 listings, indicating this is a standard association expense.
No listings' public remarks mention BBQ, barbecue, grill, or grilling area. Current MLS shows 2/14 listings checked for BBQ, but there is no corroborating language in any remarks and no prior historical confidence—this suggests the checkbox may be erroneous or over-reported; therefore BBQ is omitted for now.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Car wash is explicitly mentioned in one listing's remarks ('car wash area') and appears in MLS checkbox data for 5/14 listings. Evidence is moderate (some agent consistency and MLS checks), so the building likely offers a car wash area but the documentation is not extensive across remarks.

Multiple listings for Contessa mention patio/deck-style outdoor space, most often a "wrap-around lanai" or "large lanai," and one calls it a "private lanai". In total, far more than one listing references this feature, so it appears to be a real and recurring building/unit amenity rather than a one-off MLS checkbox error.

I am treating recreation_area as absent for now because none of the remarks explicitly describe a recreation area, recreation deck, or amenity deck. The MLS checkbox appears inconsistently (6/15 listings), which looks more like possible agent copy-paste than confirmed building-level evidence.

Sauna is strongly confirmed for Contessa. Multiple listing remarks explicitly mention it, including phrases like 'residents can unwind in the building’s pool and sauna' and 'Amenities include ... a sauna.' The current remarks align with the already strong MLS history (13/17 listings), suggesting this is a consistent shared building amenity rather than a copy-paste error.
Storage is strongly supported across many Contessa listings: at least 5-6 remarks explicitly mention storage, including phrases like 'storage unit,' 'storage locker located on your floor,' 'dedicated storage area,' and 'large exterior storage area.' This aligns with the historical MLS pattern showing storage in both amenities and unit features for a large share of listings, so it appears to be a real building feature rather than copy-paste noise.
The listings mention storage lockers and general storage areas, but do not identify facilities for surfboards or boards. General storage is insufficient to confirm this feature.
No analysis available
Trash chute is confirmed by the current remarks and the historical MLS pattern. One listing explicitly says 'Amenities include ... trash chute,' which matches the prior high-confidence data (14/17 listings). The evidence is strong and consistent across the available remarks.

Historical data strongly supported whirlpool from prior remarks, but in these current listings there are 0 mentions of whirlpool, hot tub, jacuzzi, spa, or hydrotherapy. Because the building’s current remarks repeatedly describe other amenities (pool, sauna, security) without any whirlpool reference, this may reflect copy-paste omission in newer MLS remarks rather than a real change.
Pool is strongly confirmed for The Contessa. Multiple listings across different agents explicitly mention it, including phrases like 'pool and sauna,' 'swimming pool,' 'beautiful pool area,' 'saltwater pool,' and 'Amenities include a pool, a keiki pool.' This appears consistent rather than copy-paste error, and it aligns with the prior high-confidence MLS amenity data.
No analysis available
The saltwater pool is directly identified in the remarks. This is strong, explicit evidence supporting the feature.
Strong evidence that Contessa offers in-unit laundry. At least 6 current listings explicitly mention washer/dryer in the unit, and the MLS history shows 15/17 listings with washer/dryer included. The consistent wording across multiple remarks suggests this is not just copy-paste checkbox noise, but a real feature available in the building.
No analysis available
The listings consistently reference in-unit washers and dryers and do not mention shared laundry requiring payment. No evidence supports paid community laundry.
The remarks mention in-unit washers and dryers, but do not describe community laundry facilities on every floor. Because no explicit building-wide laundry evidence was found, this remains unsupported.
Parking is clearly present across the building. Multiple listings mention specific stall counts and types, including "2 parking stalls," "1 open parking Stall," "two side by side open parking stalls," "2 assigned parking stalls," and "assigned covered parking." The evidence is consistent across many listings and appears to reflect building-level parking availability, not a copy-paste anomaly.
Assigned/reserved parking is strongly supported for this building. Across multiple listings, remarks mention "one assigned parking stall," "2 assigned parking stalls," "2 deeded parking spaces," and "assigned covered parking," showing consistent evidence from multiple agents rather than a one-off checkbox error.
No analysis available
The remarks repeatedly identify the unit's parking as deeded, including listings describing one or two deeded stalls. This is strong direct evidence that at least the referenced unit parking is deeded.
No analysis available
I searched for monthly parking fees, rental charges, additional parking costs, and fee amounts. The remarks only mention an informal rental of a second stall without a stated price, so the monthly fee is unknown.
Guest parking is well documented for the building. Multiple remarks explicitly mention visitor/guest parking, including "twelve available visitor parking stalls," "a lot of guest stalls," "ample guest parking stalls are available," and "15 guest parking stalls." This is strong multi-listing evidence and aligns with the MLS guest-parking flag appearing in many records.

The listings discuss assigned, deeded, open, covered, and guest parking but do not describe a waitlist system. Based on the available remarks, there is no evidence of a parking waitlist.
No analysis available
The remarks explicitly describe key access for elevator and building entry, supporting controlled key, card, or fob-style access. Although the exact technology is not specified as a card or fob, the security-access evidence is strong.
Security is supported across multiple listings and appears to be a stable building amenity. Public remarks mention a "secured building," "secure entry," "24-hour surveillance system," and "resident manager and security," with several agents repeating similar language. While most remarks emphasize security features rather than a literal guard stationed on-site, the MLS history and repeated descriptions make this a strong building-level security signal.
The remarks mention surveillance, cameras, secured entry, and general security, but these do not establish a patrol service. No explicit patrol evidence was found.

Concrete construction is strongly supported. Current MLS records show 16 of 17 listings with CONCRE, and nothing in the public remarks contradicts that pattern. The consistent high-rise building descriptions make this a high-confidence building feature.
Double wall construction is not substantiated by the public remarks for The Contessa. Across the provided listings, there are no explicit mentions of double-wall construction, while the MLS checkbox appears inconsistent at only 6 of 16 listings. This strongly suggests the MLS flag is unreliable here.
No analysis available
Masonry/stucco is not supported by the public remarks. Although 5 of 17 MLS entries currently carry MASSTU, none of the descriptions explicitly mention masonry, stucco, or a masonry-and-stucco exterior, so the evidence appears weak and possibly copied from prior data.
No analysis available
Concrete slab foundation is not supported by the remarks. While 5 of 17 MLS records currently show SLAB, none of the listing narratives reference a concrete slab or solid concrete foundation, so confidence remains low and the MLS checkbox may be inaccurate.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Above-ground construction is not supported by the public remarks. Only 1 of 16 MLS listings currently shows ABOGRO, and none of the remarks provide the kind of explicit construction detail needed to validate a building-level feature. This looks like an unverified MLS checkbox rather than confirmed building information.

I searched for indications that short-term rentals are permitted or prohibited, including STR, vacation rental, NUC, TVU, 30-day minimum, and owner-occupancy language. None appeared in the public remarks, so there is no supporting evidence that STR is allowed.
The remarks mention building amenities such as pools, a sauna, security, and management, but not participation in a hotel rental pool. Because STR allowance is not supported, this feature is false under the prerequisite rule.
I searched for language requiring all units to participate in a hotel rental program or preventing owners from opting out. No such remarks were found, and the STR prerequisite is not met, so mandatory pool participation is false.

I searched for leasehold, ground lease, lease expiration, lease renewal, and similar wording. No specific land-lease expiration year was provided, so the value remains unknown.
Multiple listings explicitly reference assumable VA loans and VA buyers, providing strong direct evidence that VA financing is available. This is consistent across several public remarks.
The remarks directly confirm full building insurance. This is strong, feature-specific evidence and supports a very high-confidence true value.
No analysis available
I searched for phrases including "fire life safety evaluation passed," "FLSE passed," "fire safety certified," "life safety compliant," and "passed fire inspection." The remarks discuss a fire sprinkler system and paid special assessments, but that does not establish that an FLSE was passed.
Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.

Ocean views are clearly supported by multiple independent remarks and current MLS data. Several listings explicitly mention 'ocean,' 'Pacific Ocean,' or 'ocean in the distance,' often alongside Diamond Head and city views. This looks like a real building feature rather than a one-off agent copy-paste.
Mountain views are consistently and repeatedly confirmed across many listings. The remarks include direct phrases like 'beautiful mountain views,' 'Koolau Mountains,' and 'views from Downtown/Punchbowl to Koko head,' aligning with the strong MLS pattern. Confidence is very high that the building offers mountain-view units.
Confidence 99%: At least four listings reference Diamond Head views (e.g., 'Diamond Head views', 'panoramic views from Diamond Head', 'views of Diamond Head, Waikiki, ocean and mountain').
City views are heavily supported across the listing set and are not limited to a single agent's wording. Remarks explicitly reference 'city views,' 'city skyline,' and 'Honolulu City Lights,' which matches the strong MLS distribution. This is a clear building-level feature for buyers seeking city views.

Confidence 90%: None of the six detailed listings mention sunrise views despite extensively describing view corridors (Diamond Head, Waikiki, city skyline, ocean, and mountain), and MLS view_descriptions never include SUNRIS.
Sunset views are supported, though less consistently than mountain and city views. The listing remarks include explicit fireworks and sunrise/sunset-oriented language, and MLS data shows 5/17 listings tagged with SUNSET. This suggests the feature exists in some units, even if not as universally as the other views.
No analysis available
This is direct evidence that fireworks can be viewed from a unit's wrap-around lanai. The wording explicitly ties the Waikiki fireworks view to the residence.
No analysis available
The resident manager feature is strongly supported across many listings. At least 4-5 remarks explicitly mention it using phrases such as "on-site management," "manager on site M-F," "resident manager," and "on-site resident manager," which aligns with the strong MLS history showing RESMAN in most listings. This looks like a consistent building-level amenity rather than a one-off copy-paste error.

Confidence levels are based on MLS checkbox data and AI analysis of listing remarks. High = strong evidence, Medium = some evidence, Low = limited or conflicting evidence. Buyers should always verify critical details independently.
