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 searched for an explicit owner-occupancy percentage such as "80% owner occupied" or similar numeric wording. The remarks only provide a qualitative statement that owner occupancy is high, so the current value of 61% is kept.
Multiple listings directly state that Diamond Head Vista has 2 elevators, so this is strongly confirmed. A ground-floor remark about “No elevator waits” is consistent with that count.

Calculated from association fees observed in penthouse unit listings for this building.

Cable inclusion is very strongly supported across the building. At least a dozen remarks explicitly mention basic cable, cable TV, or cable being covered, and the MLS history is highly consistent (18/20 listings). This looks like repeated accurate reporting rather than a one-off agent error.
I do not find clear evidence that maintenance fees include common area electricity. Some MLS data references other common expenses, but the public remarks do not specifically mention hallway, elevator, or amenity power. That makes this feature too weakly supported to confirm.
No analysis available
Electricity is one of the clearest included utilities for this building. Numerous listings directly state that maintenance fees include electricity, and the MLS history is nearly unanimous (19 of 20). The evidence is consistent across many different remarks and agents.
No analysis available
Hot water appears to be included in the maintenance fee for Diamond Head Vista. Multiple listings explicitly mention hot water, often alongside water, sewer, and electricity, and the MLS history is highly consistent. There is no strong contrary evidence in the remarks provided.
Internet service is well supported as an included building expense. Remarks mention internet, WiFi, or even high-speed fiber optic internet in several listings, and the MLS history is also strong (17 of 20). This is consistent across multiple listings and appears reliable.
No analysis available
Sewer is consistently described as included in the maintenance fee. Several remarks list sewer directly, usually alongside water and electricity, and the MLS history is highly consistent (18/20). This is strong building-level evidence.
Water is clearly included in Diamond Head Vista maintenance fees. The remarks repeatedly mention water as part of the included utilities, and the MLS history is strong and consistent (18/20). The evidence looks reliable across multiple agents and listings.

Car wash is strongly supported at the building level. I found explicit mentions in multiple remarks such as "car wash area" and "car wash for added convenience," which appear across different listings rather than a single copy-paste source. Current MLS data also shows CRWSH in 13/20 listings, reinforcing that 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 language such as "surfboard storage," "board storage," and "surf storage." The remarks clearly state surfboard/bicycle storage is available, confirming this amenity.
No analysis available
Trash chute is well-supported at the building level. The MLS data shows TRACHU in 15/20 listings, and one listing explicitly states the HOA fee includes "a trash chute." This is strong corroboration rather than a likely checkbox error.

Pool is strongly confirmed for Diamond Head Vista. The current remarks mention it in many listings, including explicit phrases such as "swimming pool," "pool," and "amenities include a refreshing pool," across multiple agents and unit types. This aligns with the already high-confidence MLS amenity data, so the feature should remain true.
No analysis available
I searched for phrases like "salt water pool," "saltwater pool," "salt pool," and "saline pool." The building clearly has a swimming pool, but the public remarks never specify that it is salt water.
In-unit laundry is strongly supported and consistent across the listing set. Many remarks explicitly mention it in multiple unit descriptions, including phrases such as "in-unit washer and dryer," "washer and dryer in unit," and "stack washer/Dryer." This appears to be a building-wide offering available in many units, not a one-off agent error.
No analysis available
I looked for payment-related laundry terms such as "coin laundry," "coin-op," "quarters," "card operated," and "laundry fee." The remarks reference in-unit washers and dryers and one broad community laundry mention, but nothing indicates paid laundry service.
I searched the public remarks for phrases like "laundry on each floor," "every floor laundry," and "floor-by-floor laundry." The listings only mention in-unit washer/dryer and one general mention of community laundry as an amenity, which does not confirm laundry on every floor.
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. Multiple remarks explicitly mention 'assigned parking stalls,' '1 assigned parking stall,' and 'two assigned parking stalls,' showing this is a common building feature rather than an isolated unit-level note. The evidence is consistent across many agents and appears to be repeatedly confirmed, not just copied from the MLS checkbox.
Covered parking is very strongly supported. Many remarks directly say 'covered parking stall,' 'assigned covered parking stall,' or describe stalls as 'one covered, one open,' which aligns with the high historical MLS frequency. This is consistent across multiple listings and agents, indicating the building offers covered parking options.
I looked for explicit language like deeded parking, owned stall, or parking included in the deed. The listings consistently describe parking as assigned or included with the unit, which supports parking access but not deeded ownership.
No analysis available
I searched for any stated monthly parking charge, rental fee, or added parking cost, but none were mentioned. The remarks discuss assigned/covered/open stalls and guest parking, but do not indicate that parking costs extra.
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.
Secured-entry parking is supported by multiple remarks, though not as universally as assigned or covered parking. Several listings describe the building as secured and specifically mention 'secured garage parking,' 'gated garage,' or 'secure fob entry,' which is enough to support the feature for buyers. The evidence suggests a secure access-controlled parking setup, even if the MLS checkbox is not present on every listing.
No analysis available
Confidence 70%: Parking is always described as assigned stalls; there is no mention of valet services.
I looked for phrases like 'parking waitlist,' 'waiting list for parking,' or 'join the waitlist,' and found none. The public remarks suggest parking is available with the listed units rather than managed through a waitlist system.
No analysis available
I searched for key card/fob access terms such as "keycard entry," "fob access," and "electronic access." Multiple remarks explicitly mention secure fob entry and secured access, confirming card/fob-based security.
Security guard/service is strongly supported for Diamond Head Vista. Across the provided remarks, at least 10+ listings explicitly mention security-related language such as '24-hour security,' '24/7 secured building,' 'secured building,' and 'on-site security,' often repeated by different agents. The consistency across listings suggests this is a real building feature, not just copy-paste checkbox data.
I looked for terms like "security patrol," "roving security," "patrol service," and "patrolled building." The building is described as secure with on-site security and 24-hour security, but there is no explicit mention of a patrol service.

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. None of the public remarks contradict that, and the building’s repeated high-rise/secured condo descriptions are consistent with concrete construction.
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 public remarks explicitly state that the building allows 30-day rentals, which satisfies the short-term-rental allowance criterion. I also found mention of long-term rentals allowed, with no language restricting STRs.
I searched for hotel rental pool, hotel rental program, or hotel-managed operations language and found none. Since there is no public remark suggesting a hotel pool program, this is best marked false.
I looked for wording indicating mandatory hotel-pool participation, required rental program membership, or inability to opt out, but found nothing. The remarks also do not suggest any hotel pool arrangement at all.

I searched the remarks for leasehold language such as 'lease expires,' 'ground lease ends,' 'leasehold expiring,' or a renewal year, but found nothing. Based on the public remarks provided, there is no specific lease-expiry year to extract.
The remarks directly reference VA financing through a VA assumable loan option, which is strong public evidence that VA loans are accepted. I found no conflicting language suggesting VA financing is not allowed.
I reviewed the remarks for insurance-related language that would indicate full HOA coverage, including walls-in coverage or comprehensive building insurance. There were no explicit statements confirming the building is fully insured, so this cannot be verified from the listings.
No analysis available
I searched the public remarks for fire/life-safety wording such as FLSE passed, life safety compliant, fire safety certified, and passed fire inspection. None of the listings explicitly state that the building passed a fire/life safety evaluation, so this remains unknown from remarks alone.

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 current remarks and align with the historical MLS pattern. Multiple listings from different agents mention "sunset skies," "sunset cocktails," "wind down at sunset," and "Waikiki sunsets," which is consistent with a genuine building-level view feature rather than a copy-paste error.
No analysis available
I searched for direct view language like "fireworks view," "watch fireworks from lanai," and "see fireworks from unit." The remarks focus on Diamond Head, ocean, park, and city views, but do not state that fireworks can be seen from the building.

Resident manager is strongly confirmed. The current remarks mention it in many listings, often verbatim as "on-site resident manager," "resident manager on site," or simply "resident manager," and one remark adds the manager has been there "for over 35 years." Combined with the prior MLS data showing RESMAN in 18/20 listings, this is very strong building-level evidence.
