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.

Several listings reference high or strong owner-occupancy (e.g., 'High owner occupancy tells you this is a place people love to call home!'), but none provide an explicit percentage. Per the rules, I retain the existing numeric value of 61.00. Confidence is increased to moderate because multiple remarks describe the building as having high owner-occupancy, supporting the current value qualitatively but not providing a numeric override.
Several listings explicitly mention '2 elevators', confirming the building has two. I searched the remarks for numeric and worded elevator references (e.g., '4 elevators', 'four elevators', 'multiple elevators') and found consistent explicit wording indicating two elevators.

Strong, consistent evidence across listings: 19 of 20 MLS entries list CABTV and many public remarks explicitly state 'basic cable' or 'cable TV' is included in the maintenance fee. Multiple different agent remarks repeat the same claim (not isolated to a single listing), so inclusion is well-supported.
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
Very strong and consistent evidence: all 20 MLS entries historically listed electricity as included and many agent remarks here repeat 'electricity included' (e.g., 'Maintenance fees includes electricity', 'electricity is included in the maintenance fee'), confirming the building-level feature.
No analysis available
Strong supporting evidence: 19 of 20 MLS entries list HOTWAT and several remarks explicitly state 'hot water' or 'water/hot water' is included with maintenance. Comments are repeated across many different listings/agents, indicating a building-wide inclusion.
Clear repeated confirmation: 18 of 20 MLS entries list internet service and multiple agent remarks here explicitly mention 'internet included', 'WiFi', or specific internet speeds as part of the maintenance fee, supporting inclusion.
No analysis available
Strong, consistent evidence: 19 of 20 MLS entries list SEWER and several public remarks here explicitly say the maintenance fee covers sewer, with the claim repeated across different listings/agents.
Strong supporting evidence: 18 of 20 MLS entries list WATER and numerous remarks explicitly note 'water' (often paired with hot water and sewer) is included in the HOA/maintenance, repeated across multiple agent remarks.

Building-level car wash is repeatedly mentioned in public remarks (approximately 6 separate listings say 'car wash' or 'car wash area') and the MLS amenity checkbox CRWSH appears in 14 of 20 current listings. Evidence comes from multiple agent remarks across different listings and strong historical MLS support, indicating the building offers a car wash area.

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.

Remarks clearly reference surfboard/bicycle storage and bespoke surfboard racks, indicating dedicated surfboard storage facilities are available.

The MLS checkbox TRACHU appears in 16 of 20 current listings and at least one public remark explicitly cites a 'trash chute' (with other listings referencing common building trash/maintenance conveniences). Combined with strong historical MLS support and agent remarks, there is high confidence the building has a trash chute system.

High-confidence evidence the building has a pool: MLS amenity codes show POOL for all 20 current listings and many public remarks explicitly reference it (e.g., "refreshing pool", "swimming pool", "relax... poolside"). Mentions appear across listings from multiple agents rather than a single outlier, indicating the pool is a genuine, building-level amenity.
No analysis available
I searched for terms like 'salt water pool', 'saltwater', 'salt pool' and found none. The remarks confirm a pool exists but do not indicate it is a salt-water pool, so there is no evidence to mark this true.
Strong, consistent evidence that Diamond Head Vista units offer in-unit laundry: 20 of 20 current MLS listings include washer/dryer. Multiple remarks explicitly state phrases like "in-unit stack washer/Dryer", "in-unit washer and dryer", and "washer/dryer inside of unit", indicating this feature is widely present rather than a copy-paste error.
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for payment indicators (coin-op, card, quarters, paid laundry) and found no such language. Only a generic 'community laundry' is mentioned, so there is no evidence the laundry requires payment.
I searched the public remarks for phrases like 'laundry on each floor', 'laundry room on every floor', or 'floor-by-floor laundry' and found none. The remarks only mention a general 'community laundry' without specifying it is on every floor, so there is no evidence to mark this true.
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.
Most listings indicate assigned parking: 17 of 20 MLS records list ASSIGN and many remarks explicitly mention "assigned parking stalls" (e.g., "two assigned parking stalls", "one assigned parking stall"). Evidence is consistent across multiple unit remarks and aligns with MLS checkbox data.
High-confidence evidence that the building offers covered parking: current MLS checkbox codes were COVERE/CO1/CO2/CO3PLUS/GARAGE in 17 of 20 listings, and multiple public remarks (approximately 8–10 listings) explicitly state covered stalls—phrases include “one covered and one open,” “one covered parking stall,” and “assigned covered parking stall.” Mentions appear across different agents and listings rather than being isolated, reinforcing the feature’s validity.
I searched for explicit wording such as 'deeded parking', 'owned stall', or 'included in deed'. While numerous remarks reference 'assigned', 'designated', or 'one/two assigned parking stall(s)', that language does not explicitly confirm parking is deeded, so cannot be marked as deeded from the remarks alone.
No analysis available
Searched for 'parking fee', 'monthly parking', 'parking rental', or similar. Remarks describe assigned/covered parking and guest parking but do not list any monthly parking charge, so no parking fee amount can be extracted.
Moderate-to-strong evidence for guest parking: 10 of 20 MLS listings indicate guest parking and several public remarks state "guest parking" or "ample guest stalls" (e.g., "1 parking Stall & ample guest stalls", "abundant guest parking"). Mentions appear across different unit listings, suggesting visitor parking is available for the building.
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.
Searched for any references to parking waitlists or waiting lists. Listings consistently reference assigned and guest parking but include no waitlist language, so no evidence of a waitlist system.
No analysis available
Public remarks explicitly state secure/fob entry and secured access, indicating a card/fob electronic access system is present in the building.
Strong evidence that Diamond Head Vista provides on-site security/guard service: current remarks in at least ~10 listings explicitly reference security features, using phrases like '24/7 secured', '24-hour security', 'on-site security', and 'Resident Manager, Security'. This aligns with historical MLS checkbox data (14/20 listings with SECGUA) and appears consistent across multiple agents rather than an isolated copy/paste error.
Listings repeatedly mention 24-hour security and on-site security/staff, supporting the presence of active security/patrol services in the building.

Multiple listings explicitly mention split/mini-split or multiple in-unit ACs — e.g., phrases like "split AC throughout," "two air conditioners," and "the use of 2 ACs (at $5 each)" appear across the ads (roughly 4 listings reference split/ACs). This aligns with the MLS inclusions (4 of 20), so there is moderate-to-strong evidence the building offers split AC in some units, though agent copy/paste could account for some repeat mentions.
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.
Building construction is listed as concrete in 20/20 current MLS records (marked 'CONCRE') and historical data likewise indicated concrete construction. None of the public remarks across the listings explicitly mention construction type (0 mentions), but the uniform MLS checkbox across many agents strongly supports that the building is a reinforced concrete structure.
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.

Remarks explicitly state the building allows 30-day rentals. Per the provided rules, a 30-day minimum indicates short-term rentals are not allowed, so str_allowed is false.
Because STRs are allowed (remarks: 'this building allows 30-day rentals'), hotel-pool participation could be possible in principle, but I searched for 'hotel rental pool', 'managed by hotel', 'hotel rental program', and brand names. No listings mention any hotel-managed rental pool or hotel operations, so there is no evidence the building participates in a hotel rental pool.
I searched for explicit phrases like 'mandatory hotel pool', 'required to participate', or 'must be in rental program'. Several listings note 30-day rentals are allowed and mention owner-occupant options, and no listing indicates a mandatory hotel rental pool or that owners cannot opt out; therefore mandatory participation is false.

Searched for phrases like 'lease expires', 'land lease to', 'leasehold expiring', or explicit years. No leasehold/ground lease expiry year or renewal information appears in any remarks, so the expiry year is unknown.
Remarks explicitly reference a VA assumable loan option, indicating the project accepts VA financing. This is direct evidence from the public remarks.
I reviewed all remarks for explicit insurance coverage language (e.g., 'fully insured', 'walls-in coverage', 'fully covered insurance', 'comprehensive building insurance') and found none. Since the public remarks do not state that the HOA provides walls-in or full building insurance, there is no evidence in the listings to mark this as true.
No analysis available
I searched all public remarks for explicit language such as 'fire life safety evaluation passed', 'FLSE passed', 'fire safety certified', and 'passed fire inspection' and found no references. Because there is no mention in any listing, there is no evidence that the building passed a formal FLSE in the public remarks. Absence of mention does not prove the building failed an FLSE—only that it was not stated in the remarks.

Strong evidence across listings: approximately 18 of the provided listing remarks explicitly mention ocean or Pacific Ocean views (phrases include 'ocean', 'Pacific Ocean', and 'sparkling Ocean'). Mentions appear in multiple agents' remarks and across many units/stacks, indicating this is a building-level offering rather than an isolated or copy-paste error.
Mountain/mauka/Koolau views are mentioned in multiple listings (several remarks reference 'mountain views' or 'mountains'), though less frequently than ocean or Diamond Head. Multiple agents explicitly list mountain views, providing moderate-to-high confidence that some units offer mountain views.
Very strong evidence: roughly 18–20 of the provided listing remarks explicitly mention 'Diamond Head' or 'iconic Diamond Head' (quotes include 'unobstructed views of Diamond Head', 'panoramic views of Diamond Head'). These references come from many different listings/agents, supporting that Diamond Head views are a prominent, building-level feature.
City/skyline views are referenced in many listings — approximately ~8–12 remarks mention 'city', 'Waikiki skyline', or 'city views' alongside ocean/Diamond Head. Multiple listings from different agents mention the skyline, supporting inclusion.
Although the exact keyword 'coastline' or 'shoreline' is not widely used, multiple listings reference 'Gold Coast', proximity to the beach, Waikiki coastline landmarks, and panoramic ocean/shoreline panoramas. Only a few listings use language that directly implies 'coastline' (estimated 2–5), so the building likely offers coastline-facing units but the evidence is more implied than explicitly worded.

Sunrise/morning views are explicitly cited in several listings (at least ~5–7 remarks) with phrases like 'sunrise views', 'Imagine waking up to the sunrise', and 'morning coffee', indicating some units provide sunrise exposure.
Moderately strong evidence: about 6–9 of the provided listing remarks explicitly mention sunset or 'sunset skies'/'sunset views' (examples: 'sunset skies', 'watching the sunset paint the sky', 'sunset cocktails'). These mentions are repeated across different listings, implying the building offers units with desirable evening/western views.
No analysis available
I searched for phrases like 'fireworks view', 'watch fireworks from lanai', or 'see fireworks from unit' and found none. While the building has panoramic ocean and Diamond Head views, there is no explicit statement that fireworks can be viewed from the units.

High-confidence evidence that Diamond Head Vista has an on-site resident manager: 19/20 MLS listings include the RESMAN amenity and at least 18 current public remarks explicitly mention 'resident manager' or 'on-site manager' (e.g., 'Resident manager on site', 'on-site resident manager', 'resident manager has been here for over 35 years'). Mentions are consistent across many agent remarks and align with historical MLS data, indicating the feature is building-wide rather than a single-unit note.
