Franklin Towers
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.

No analysis available
I searched for explicit owner-occupancy statements or percentages in the public remarks and found none. Because owner-occupancy is a numeric field and there is no explicit value in the remarks or an existing current numeric value to retain, the value is unknown (null) with low confidence.
Multiple public remarks explicitly state '2 elevators' and reference two units per floor. Per rules, when a numeric value is explicitly stated in remarks we use that number. High confidence because the phrase appears directly in the remarks.
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.

17 of 20 current MLS listings list CABTV in association_fee_includes; no public remarks explicitly state 'cable included.' Evidence is consistent across many listings (possible copy/paste), and historical confidence was Medium, so the MLS prevalence (17/20) supports including fee_inc_cable with moderate-to-high implied confidence.
17 of 20 current MLS listings list OTCOEX (common area electric) in association fee fields. Remarks repeatedly describe resort-style shared amenities (pool, spa, lighting, elevators) across many agent listings, consistent with common-area electricity being covered by maintenance. Evidence is strong across multiple listings and aligns with historical MLS data.
No analysis available
Historical data previously indicated electricity was included in the association fee (high confidence). In the current set only 1 of 20 listings has ELECTR checked and no public remarks state 'electricity included' or 'power included', suggesting recent agent checkbox changes or inconsistencies. Because historical evidence is strong but current remarks do not confirm the feature, the feature is retained with moderate confidence (0.75) pending direct owner/manager verification.
No analysis available
Only 1 of 20 listings checks HOTWAT, while 12 of 20 list WTRHTR (water heater) and remarks explicitly state a 'tankless water heater' and that units now have individual water shut-off valves following building repiping. This strongly indicates hot water is provided by in-unit heaters and not included in the HOA maintenance fees.
13 of 20 MLS listings list INTSER in association fee fields, but public remarks across all listings contain no mention of 'internet included,' 'wifi included,' or bundled internet service. Given medium historical confidence and the absence of any agent remarks describing internet as included, evidence is weak-to-moderate and implies internet inclusion is unlikely.
No analysis available
19 of 20 current MLS listings list SEWER in association fee fields. Multiple remarks reference a complete plumbing upgrade and repiping of the building, supporting the MLS entries that sewer service is handled at the association level. The combined MLS and remarks evidence is strong.
20 of 20 MLS listings list WATER in association fee fields. Remarks discuss building-wide repiping and that units now have their own shut-off valves, but do not contradict that water service is paid/managed by the association. The MLS consensus and corroborating plumbing remarks give strong evidence that water is included in fees.
Strong evidence: BBQs or barbecue areas are described repeatedly across the public remarks (appearing in at least ~15-18 of the 20 listings) with phrases like 'BBQ areas', 'BBQ bays', and 'barbecue cabanas'. MLS currently marks BBQ on all 20 listings and multiple agents independently reference the shared BBQ facilities, so evidence is consistent and strong.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Negative evidence: Although MLS checkboxes show car wash on some listings (6/20), none of the public remarks mention 'car wash', 'auto wash', or 'vehicle wash area'. Given the absence of any remark-level corroboration and the likelihood of checkbox copy/paste, there is high confidence that a building-level car wash does not exist.
Limited evidence: A 'club house' is explicitly mentioned in at least one public remark and MLS flags clubhouse on 4 of 20 listings. Because only a few listings reference it and wording is inconsistent across agents, inclusion is appropriate but confidence is modest.
No analysis available
Strong evidence: A dedicated dog park is called out across numerous listings (at least ~14-18 of 20) with phrases like 'dog park', 'doggie park', and 'natural doggy park'. MLS strongly flags the amenity and many independent agent remarks corroborate it, so confidence is high.
Only 2 of 20 MLS listings include the DOORMA amenity, and none of the multiple public remarks across listings use the terms 'doorman', 'door attendant', or 'lobby attendant'. Listings consistently mention '24-hour security', 'security guard', or 'secured/secured entry' but never an actual doorman; given the lack of explicit mentions and low checkbox prevalence, the evidence suggests the building does not have a doorman and the checkbox entries are likely agent errors.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Strong evidence: A meeting room is explicitly referenced in the public remarks (e.g., 'meeting room') and MLS lists this amenity on several listings. Given prior high confidence plus explicit mention(s) in the remarks, this building-level amenity is included with high confidence.
No analysis available
A walking/jogging path is explicitly mentioned in about 1–2 listings ('walking/jogging path'). Given MLS checkbox prevalence but sparse remarks, include the feature with moderate confidence as evidence is limited and may reflect copy/paste in some listings.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Strong evidence: Putting green is explicitly mentioned in many remarks (around 9-12 listings) with phrases such as 'putting green' and 'practice putting green', and MLS marks the amenity on a majority of listings. The combination of historical data and explicit agent remarks supports inclusion with high confidence.
Moderate evidence: Recreation or recreation-style spaces are mentioned in several remarks (examples include 'recreation space' and general 'resort-style amenities' references) and MLS marks RECARE on 15 of 20 listings. While multiple agents reference general recreation amenities, specific descriptions vary, so confidence is moderate.

Negative evidence: While MLS has sauna checked on several listings, the aggregated public remarks (20 listings) contain no references to sauna or steam room. With no agent remarks describing a sauna and the possibility of checkbox copy/paste, confidence is high that there is not a building-level sauna.
Although only 1/20 listings currently have the storage checkbox, multiple public remarks mention building storage — notably several references to "bike storage" and at least one saying "ample storage." MLS checkbox data is sparse and may be inconsistently applied, but repeated mentions across different listings indicate the building likely offers storage/lockers.
I searched for terms like 'surfboard storage', 'board storage', and 'surf storage' and found none. The amenities mention 'bike storage' specifically, but there is no explicit surfboard storage referenced.
Strong evidence: Tennis courts are explicitly mentioned in many listings (at least ~15-17 of 20) with phrases such as 'tennis court', 'tennis & pickleball court', and 'tennis courts'. MLS shows the amenity on all 20 listings and multiple agents independently cite it, indicating a building-level tennis facility.
Mixed evidence: the MLS amenity checkbox for a trash/garbage chute appears on many current listings (majority of listings), but none of the public remarks mention 'trash chute'/'garbage chute'. Given the lack of corroborating remarks but consistent MLS flags, the feature is included with moderate uncertainty pending owner/management verification.

Fairly strong evidence: multiple public remarks explicitly list 'whirlpool', 'jacuzzi', 'spa', or 'hot tub' (around 10–12 listings), indicating on-site hot tub/spa facilities in addition to the pool amenities.
Strong, consistent evidence that Franklin Towers has a pool: all current MLS records (20/20) include pool amenities and multiple remarks state phrases like 'swimming pool', 'sparkling pool', 'kiddy pool', and 'whirlpool'. Mentions appear across many agent listings (likely some copy/paste), but the uniformity and historical high confidence make the presence of a pool highly reliable.
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for any indication the pool is saltwater and found only generic references to pool/jacuzzi/kiddy pool/whirlpool. No saltwater wording appears.
Strong evidence that Franklin Towers offers in-unit laundry: 19 of 20 recent MLS listings include washer/dryer in inclusions and multiple public remarks explicitly state 'in-unit washer and dryer', 'new washer & dryer in Sept 2025', 'stacked washer and dryer', and 'front load washer/dryer'. These mentions appear across many different listings/agents (not isolated to a single copy/paste), indicating some units in the building have in-unit washer and dryer.
No analysis available
I looked for explicit terms indicating paid community laundry (coin-op, card, quarters, etc.) and found none. Remarks repeatedly reference in-unit washers/dryers rather than community laundry.
I searched the remarks for phrases like 'laundry on each floor', 'laundry room on every floor', and 'floor-by-floor laundry' and found none. Multiple listings state units have in-unit washer/dryer, implying no need for floor-by-floor community laundry.
No analysis available
Strong evidence across listings that units include assigned stalls: about 16 of 20 MLS entries indicate ASSIGN and many remarks explicitly state '2 assigned parking', 'two assigned, side-by-side'. Mentions appear across multiple agent remarks (not isolated), supporting a building-level offering of assigned parking.
Very strong evidence: 19 of 20 MLS entries list covered/garage parking and numerous remarks explicitly state "assigned covered parking" and "two covered parking stalls" or "covered parking stalls in a secure garage." The coverage is consistent across multiple agents and listings, indicating this is a building-level feature rather than isolated agent copy/paste.
Multiple listings reference assigned/covered parking stalls and secured parking garage (e.g., 'assigned covered parking', 'two assigned, side-by-side, covered parking stalls'), but none explicitly say parking is deeded. Therefore deeded parking is not supported by the remarks.
No analysis available
Looked for terms like 'parking fee', 'monthly parking', or 'parking rental' and found none. The remarks describe assigned parking but do not state any ongoing parking charge.
Strong evidence: 13 of 20 current MLS entries include GUEST in parking features and several remarks explicitly reference "ample guest parking" or "guest parking." The mentions appear across multiple listings and agents, supporting that the building offers guest parking.
Solid evidence for secured parking/entry: approximately 12 of 20 MLS entries show SECENT and numerous remarks explicitly say 'secured gated community', 'secure parking garage', or 'secured entry'. The consistency of these phrases across listings supports marking this feature true.

No analysis available
Searched the public remarks for 'parking waitlist', 'waiting list', or instructions to join a list and found none. The remarks describe assigned and guest parking but do not indicate a waitlist system.
No analysis available
I looked for explicit mentions of card/fob/keycard access and found none. While building security and secured parking are repeatedly mentioned, there is no direct evidence of a card/fob system in the public remarks.
Strong evidence the building provides on-site security: historical MLS checkboxes indicated SECGUA on 18 of 20 listings, and the current agent remarks repeatedly state '24-hour security', 'round-the-clock security', 'security guard', and 'secured parking/secured gated community' across multiple listings (at least a dozen remarks explicitly mention security). The evidence is consistent across different agent remarks and aligns with the prior high-confidence MLS data.
Multiple listings explicitly state 24-hour security and presence of security guards (e.g., '24-hour security', 'security guard', 'round-the-clock security'), supporting a high-confidence conclusion that the building has security patrol/presence.
No analysis available
No listings mention central air; 0/20 MLS unit_features checkboxes for ACCEN/CENAC and only 1/20 inclusions ever referenced ACCEN. Multiple remarks (several listings) explicitly state "split A/C" or "new split A/C system in Nov 2024" and "split AC's," e.g., "This unit features a split A/C system with a unit in each room" and "new split A/C system in Nov 2024." Evidence consistently points to individual split units, not building-wide central air.
10 of 20 current MLS listings have the ACSPL inclusion checked and at least seven separate public-remarks entries explicitly reference split/mini-split/ductless systems (quotes include 'new split A/C system in Nov 2024' and 'split A/C system with a unit in each room'). Mentions appear across multiple listings/agents rather than being limited to a single copy-paste, indicating the building offers units with split AC.
No analysis available
All 20 current MLS listings (and prior records) list construction material = CONCRE, providing strong and consistent evidence the building is concrete. Public remarks across listings do not explicitly say 'concrete' but the uniform MLS checkbox across multiple agents/times indicates a reinforced/concrete structure.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Four of 20 current MLS listings include MASSTU in construction_materials, but none of the public remarks mention 'masonry' or 'stucco'. The small number of MLS flags and absence from remarks suggest this may be an inconsistent checkbox entry by some agents rather than a building-wide characteristic, so confidence remains low.

Eight of 20 current MLS listings include construction_materials = ABOGRO, but public remarks (0/20) do not mention 'above ground' construction; historical confidence was Low, so this is weak/implied evidence and may reflect inconsistent agent checkbox usage or partial unit-level reporting.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Searched for explicit language about short-term rentals (e.g., 'STR permitted', 'vacation rental allowed', '30-day minimum') and found no references. Absent any public-remarks indication that STRs are permitted, STR allowance is not supported by the remarks.
Looked for 'hotel rental pool', 'hotel rental program', or any hotel-managed rental language and found none. Because the remarks do not indicate STRs or a hotel rental program, hotel pool participation is not supported.
Searched for language such as 'mandatory hotel pool', 'required to participate', or notes about inability to opt out and found none. With no indication of STR or hotel pool participation, mandatory participation is not supported.

Searched for phrases such as 'lease expires', 'land lease to', 'leasehold', and explicit expiry years (e.g., 2050) and found none. No leasehold expiry year can be extracted from the public remarks.
Searched the public remarks for terms like 'VA approved', 'VA financing', or 'VA loans accepted' and found no references. With no explicit mention, we treat VA approval as not indicated in the remarks.
I searched the public remarks for phrases indicating HOA provides full/walls-in insurance coverage and found none. With no explicit mention and no existing current value, this is reported as false with medium confidence (absence = likely not disclosed/available).
No public remarks across the supplied listings (0 of ~20) mention 'fire sprinkler', 'sprinkler system', or similar. Although the MLS FIRSPR amenity is checked in 10 of 20 current listings, the remarks provide no supporting language and likely reflect inconsistent agent checkbox use rather than confirmed building features. Without explicit remarks (e.g., 'sprinklers installed in 2025') or broad consistent MLS confirmation, there is insufficient evidence to include fire sprinklers as a confirmed building feature.
I searched the public remarks for terms like 'fire life safety evaluation passed', 'FLSE passed', 'fire inspection passed', and 'fire safety certified' and found no references. There is no current value provided, so absence of mentions is treated as likely not present (medium confidence).

Strong, consistent evidence that the building offers mountain views: CURRENT MLS DATA lists MOUNTA in 6/20 view_descriptions and numerous public remarks state "mountain views", "majestic mountains" and "Diamond Head." Multiple listings and agents describe these vistas, indicating mountain views are a building-level feature.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Evidence that the building offers coastline/ocean views: several listing remarks mention "ocean views", "Pacific ocean", "peek-a-boo ocean", and even "coastline" (appearing in the penthouse remark), with around 8–10 remarks referring to ocean/coastline. While only 1/20 structured view_descriptions currently list COASTL, the repeated explicit mentions in public remarks indicate some units provide coastline views.
At least 7 listings explicitly reference garden-related features or views, with phrases like "garden", "community garden", "lush gardens" and "garden areas." Though MLS view checkbox shows none, repeated remarks across listings provide sufficient evidence that garden views/landscaped garden areas exist at the building level.
Clear evidence the building offers golf course views: CURRENT MLS DATA shows GOLCOU in 7/20 view_descriptions and numerous remarks explicitly cite "Honolulu Country Club Golf Course" and "golf course." Multiple agents/units reference these views, confirming it as a building feature.
No analysis available
Multiple public remarks across listings explicitly mention sunrise/morning sun (phrases like "Wake up to golden sunrises" and "morning sun"), supporting that some units/buildings offer sunrise views even though view_descriptions show SUNRIS in 2/20 entries.
Multiple listings explicitly reference sunsets and evening views (phrases like "toast to vibrant island sunsets" and "unforgettable sunsets"), and CURRENT MLS DATA includes SUNSET in 3/20 entries, indicating that some units in the building offer sunset views.
No analysis available
I searched for explicit mentions of viewing fireworks from the unit or building and found none. The remarks emphasize golf course, mountain, city, Diamond Head, and ocean views but do not reference fireworks.

No public remarks in the provided listings (0 of ~20) mention a resident or on-site manager. Although RESMAN is checked in many current listings (15 of 20), the public remarks repeatedly emphasize amenities (pool, security guard, parking) but do not state a live-in manager. Given the lack of explicit remarks and potential for checkbox copy/paste, there is not enough evidence to confirm a resident manager on-site.
