Diamond Head Vista
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 looked for a numeric owner-occupancy percentage such as "80% owner occupied" or any exact figure, but the remarks only provide a qualitative statement that owner occupancy is high. Without an explicit number, the current value of 61.0 is kept, but with low confidence because the remarks do not confirm it.
Public remarks directly confirm Diamond Head Vista has two elevators. A separate ground-floor remark about "No elevator waits" and another about "secure elevator access" are consistent with that count, but the explicit numeric mention is the key evidence.

Strong, consistent evidence across many listings supports cable being included. Multiple remarks explicitly state 'basic cable,' 'cable TV,' or list cable among the included maintenance fees, which aligns with the historical MLS pattern.
Moderate but consistent evidence: 13 of 20 MLS entries include OTCOEX and several public remarks explicitly reference 'other common expenses' or 'other common' being covered. The coverage appears consistently noted across multiple agent remarks, supporting inclusion of common-area utilities/expenses in the maintenance fee.
No analysis available
This is extremely well supported: all historical MLS entries list electricity, and current remarks consistently repeat that the maintenance fee covers electricity. The evidence is strong and repetitive across multiple agents.
No analysis available
Hot water is clearly supported by the MLS history and current public remarks. Several listings explicitly say 'hot water' is included, and the repeated inclusion alongside water and sewer suggests this is a building-level amenity rather than a one-off copy-paste error.
Internet service appears consistently included across the building. Remarks from multiple listings explicitly cite internet or WiFi in the maintenance fee, reinforcing the strong MLS history.
No analysis available
Sewer inclusion is strongly supported by both historical MLS data and current remarks. Multiple listings list sewer among the included utilities, indicating this is a stable building feature.
Water is consistently included in Diamond Head Vista maintenance fees. Across the provided remarks, more than a dozen listings explicitly say the fee includes "water," "hot water," or "water/sewer," matching the current MLS pattern (18/20 listings showing water in association_fee_includes). The language appears repeatedly across multiple agents and is not isolated copy-paste noise.

Car wash is strongly supported at the building level. Current remarks explicitly mention a "car wash" or "car wash area" in multiple listings, matching the prior high-confidence MLS pattern (14/20 listings with CRWSH). The repeated references across different remarks indicate this is a real shared building amenity.

Only 1 of 20 current MLS listings lists a recreation area (RECARE) while none of the public remarks mention 'recreation area', 'rec area', 'recreation deck', or similar. Multiple remarks detail other amenities (pool, BBQ, community laundry) but do not reference a shared recreation space, suggesting the RECARE checkbox is erroneous and the building does not offer a recreation area.

I searched for surfboard storage, board storage, surf storage, and related amenity wording. The remarks directly reference surfboard/bicycle storage availability and even a surfboard rack, which is clear evidence of this feature. This is strongly supported by the public remarks.
No analysis available
Trash chute is supported by both historical MLS data and current remarks. The building has TRACHU in 15/20 listings, and one recent remark explicitly lists "a trash chute" among included building features. The repeated MLS presence plus the explicit public remark makes this a high-confidence building amenity.

Pool is strongly confirmed for Diamond Head Vista. Current remarks mention a "swimming pool" or pool amenities in many listings, including phrases like "Diamond Head Vista is a secure building offering a swimming pool" and "building amenities include a swimming pool." With 20/20 listings showing the pool amenity in MLS data, this appears to be a stable building feature confirmed across multiple agents.
No analysis available
I searched for phrases like salt water pool, saltwater pool, salt pool, and saline pool. The listings repeatedly mention a swimming pool, but there is no public-remarks evidence that it is saltwater. Because salt status is not stated, this is unconfirmed.
In-unit laundry is strongly supported by both current remarks and historical MLS data. Multiple listings explicitly mention “in-unit washer and dryer,” “washer and dryer in unit,” and “stack washer/Dryer,” across several different agents and unit types. This appears to be a consistent building feature, not a copy-paste anomaly.
No analysis available
I looked for payment-related laundry terms such as coin laundry, coin-op, quarters, card-operated, and laundry fee. The remarks mention in-unit washer/dryers and one reference to community laundry, but no evidence that the shared laundry requires payment. With no explicit paid-laundry wording, this is unsupported.
I searched for language like laundry on each floor, every floor laundry, and floor-by-floor laundry. The remarks only reference community laundry as a building amenity in one listing, without indicating it exists on every floor. Because there is no explicit floor-by-floor confirmation, this remains unverified and is treated as false.
Strong evidence the building has parking: 20/20 current MLS listings include parking codes and numerous remarks state parking stalls (examples: "1 parking Stall & ample guest stalls", "two parking spaces"). Mentions appear across many unit listings and agents, so the feature is well-supported and likely not a copy/paste error.
Assigned parking is strongly supported across the listings: many remarks explicitly say 'assigned parking stalls,' '1 assigned parking stall included,' or '2 ASSIGNED PARKING STALLS.' This appears consistent across multiple agents and listing types, not just a single copied remark, so the building should be treated as offering assigned parking.
Covered parking is strongly supported across many recent listings for Diamond Head Vista. Multiple agents explicitly describe "assigned covered parking stall," "one covered and one open," and "covered parking in the garage," indicating this is a real building feature rather than a copy-paste checkbox error.
I looked for explicit terms like deeded parking, owned stall, or parking included in deed, but the listings only reference assigned, covered, open, secured, or guest stalls. That suggests parking is not confirmed as deeded from the public remarks.
No analysis available
I searched for parking fee, monthly parking charge, rental cost, or any additional parking amount, but none were stated. The remarks note included or assigned stalls, not a separate parking price.
Guest parking is repeatedly mentioned in the public remarks, including 'guest parking,' 'ample guest stalls,' and 'abundant guest parking.' This is strong corroboration from multiple listings and agents, indicating the building offers guest parking.
Several listings (8/20) include secured-entry parking codes and multiple remarks reference security and a secured/gated garage ('secured garage', 'gated garage with one covered parking stall', 'secured, covered parking'), indicating secured parking entry is offered, though some language may refer to general building security rather than a dedicated gated parking system.
No analysis available
Confidence 70%: Parking is always described as assigned stalls; there is no mention of valet services.
I looked for parking waitlist, parking waiting list, or join-the-waitlist wording, but found nothing. The listings instead mention assigned or guest parking availability.
No analysis available
I looked for card/fob access terms such as keycard entry, fob access, card reader, and electronic access. The remarks explicitly say "secure fob entry" and describe the building as secured, which is strong evidence of card/fob access security. This feature is supported with high confidence.
Security guard/service is strongly supported across many listings. At least 10+ remarks explicitly mention it, including '24-hour security,' '24/7 secured building,' 'on-site security,' and 'secured building,' often alongside resident manager and maintenance staff. This is consistent across multiple agents and appears to be a real building feature, not a copy-paste anomaly.
I searched for terms like security patrol, roving security, patrol service, and patrolled building. The remarks do mention 24/7 security, 24-hour security, and on-site security, but those are not the same as patrol service. Without explicit patrol language, this feature is not supported.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Multiple listings explicitly indicate split or individual AC systems, with the strongest phrasing being "split AC throughout" and references to "two air conditioning units" / "use of 2 ACs." There are also remarks about a "new air conditioner in the living room," showing the building has unit-level AC equipment in at least some residences. Overall the evidence is consistent across several remarks and appears to reflect a real building feature rather than a one-off MLS checkbox error.
8 of 20 current listings include the ACWIUN inclusion. Remarks frequently mention multiple air conditioners (e.g., "two air conditioners add just $10 ($5 each)", "installed a new air conditioner in the living room"), while other listings advertise "split AC throughout." No remark explicitly says "window AC" but the MLS checkbox plus multiple references to per-AC HOA charges suggest some units likely have window/wall AC units.
Concrete construction is strongly confirmed by the MLS: 20 out of 20 current listings list construction material as CONCRE. No public remarks suggest a different construction type, so this appears to be a stable building-level feature rather than a copy-paste error.
Only 2/20 MLS listings currently check 'double wall' (DOUWAL) and none of the public remarks mention 'double wall' or similar phrasing. With no historical support and no remarks confirming a building-wide double-wall construction, the limited checkbox prevalence appears unreliable and the feature is omitted.

Confidence 75%: One MLS listing explicitly uses the ABOGRO construction material code, and the building is a 1975-built high-rise condo in Waikiki, which are typically fully above-ground concrete structures with no basement-level residential construction.

The clearest evidence is the explicit statement that the building allows 30-day rentals, which meets the short-term rental allowance rule. No remarks contradicted STR permissibility.
I searched for hotel rental pool, hotel rental program, Hilton/Trump/Ritz-style pool references, and similar language, but found none. Since STR is allowed, this could only be true if explicitly stated, and it was not.
I looked for wording such as mandatory participation, required rental program, or cannot opt out, but found none. The remarks also do not suggest any hotel pool structure, so mandatory participation is not supported.
No analysis available
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for leasehold language such as lease expires, ground lease, leasehold, renewal, or expiry year, but found none. Since no specific lease expiry year is stated, this remains unknown.
The remarks explicitly mention a VA assumable loan option, which is strong public evidence that VA financing is allowed. No conflicting language was found in the listings.
I reviewed the remarks for any wording that would indicate the HOA provides full building insurance or walls-in coverage, but nothing explicit was stated. Since no listing language confirms full insurance coverage, this is treated as unverified and defaults to false.
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for explicit fire/life-safety language, including FLSE, fire inspection pass language, and life-safety compliance statements, but found none. Because there is no direct evidence in the public remarks, this remains unconfirmed and is treated as false by default under the boolean rules.
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 very strongly supported for this building. Across the provided remarks, many listings explicitly mention the Pacific Ocean, ocean views, or unobstructed ocean vistas, and the historical MLS data also shows OCEAN in 15/20 listings. This appears consistent across multiple agents rather than a copy-paste anomaly.
Mountain views are mentioned in several remarks, including 'views of the mountains' and 'mountain views to appreciate while walking to your unit.' The evidence is not as frequent as ocean or Diamond Head, but it is consistent enough across multiple listings to confirm this feature for some units.
Diamond Head views are one of the most consistent features in the listing set. The remarks repeatedly mention iconic, panoramic, and unobstructed Diamond Head views, and the historical MLS data is overwhelmingly supportive. Evidence is strong across many listings and agents.
City views are supported by multiple remarks, including explicit references to the Waikiki skyline and city skyline. The current remarks and historical MLS data both indicate this is a real building-level view option, though less universal than ocean or Diamond Head.
Coastline views are less explicitly described than the other view types, but the MLS history shows a meaningful number of coastline-related view entries. A few remarks reference the 'prestigious Gold Coast' and expansive oceanfront scenery, which supports this as a feature some units likely offer, though the evidence is more implied than direct.

Sunrise views are explicitly referenced in several listings and are backed by moderately strong historical MLS evidence. The remarks include direct phrases like 'breathtaking sunrises' and 'sunrise coffee,' indicating this is a genuine and marketable feature for the building.
Sunset views are well supported across the listing remarks and align with the historical MLS data. Multiple agents mention sunset skies, sunset cocktails, and Waikiki sunsets, suggesting this is a consistent feature rather than a one-off description.
No analysis available
I searched for direct view language like fireworks view, watch fireworks from lanai, and see fireworks from unit. The remarks contain many ocean, Diamond Head, and skyline view descriptions, but nothing specifically about viewing Friday night fireworks from the building. So this feature is not supported by the remarks.

Resident manager is strongly confirmed. Across the provided remarks, at least a dozen listings explicitly mention an 'on-site resident manager,' 'resident manager on site,' or simply 'resident manager,' and the current MLS data shows RESMAN checked in 18/20 listings. The evidence is consistent across multiple agents and appears to reflect a real building feature rather than copy-paste error.
