None of the provided public remarks discuss the proportion of owner-occupied vs. rented units. I searched for terms including 'owner occupied', 'owner-occupied', 'owner occupancy', 'percent owner', and numeric percentages (e.g., '80% owner occupied') and found no references.
Multiple remarks confirm the building has elevators and that elevators were renovated and have limited backup power, but no listing provides an explicit number (e.g., '4 elevators'). Searched for phrases like '4 elevators', 'four elevators', and 'multiple elevators' and found only qualitative references to elevators and backup power.
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.
High-confidence confirmation: 18/20 MLS records include central AC and the remarks repeatedly state 'central AC' or 'central air conditioning' and 'electricity (with central AC)' are included in the maintenance fee across multiple listings and agents.
Strong, consistent evidence across listings: 19 of 20 MLS records list cable in association_fee_includes and numerous remarks state phrases like 'basic cable TV' or 'cable TV' and 'electricity, water, sewer, cable, internet' included. Mentions appear across many independent listings rather than a single source, indicating the building-wide HOA covers cable.
Multiple listings (MLS: 15/20) and numerous public remarks state maintenance fees cover common area expenses — e.g., 'common expenses', 'maintenance of common areas', and 'common elements' — providing strong building-level evidence.
No analysis available
Clear and consistent evidence: 18 of 20 MLS records list electricity included and many remarks explicitly say 'electricity included' or 'maintenance fee covers electricity (including central AC)', confirming electricity is covered by the HOA.
No analysis available
Many listings (10+ from various agents and unit types) explicitly include 'hot water' when describing what the maintenance fee covers. Combined with widespread HOTWAT in MLS and absence of unit water heaters, this confirms that building-supplied hot water is included in the maintenance fee.
Good evidence across listings: 13/20 MLS records list internet service and many public remarks say 'internet' or 'internet and cable' are included in the maintenance fee, indicating the HOA covers internet service.
No analysis available
Strong, consistent confirmation: 19 of 20 MLS entries list sewer included and many listing remarks state 'sewer' or 'sewage' is included in the HOA/maintenance fee, showing sewer charges are covered building-wide.
High-confidence evidence: 19 of 20 MLS records list water included and numerous remarks explicitly say 'water' and 'hot water' are included in the maintenance fee, confirming water is covered by the HOA.
Strong, consistent evidence: 20 listings (current MLS) mention BBQ amenities with phrases like "BBQ grills," "BBQ areas," and "BBQ pavilions." Multiple agents independently describe shared grilling spaces, indicating a building-level amenity rather than isolated or mis-entered data.

Multiple listings (15 in current MLS) and repeated agent remarks describe an on-site car wash area/station (some mention vacuum stalls or two car wash stalls), supporting a building-level car wash amenity available to residents.

Multiple listings highlight an indoor gathering space using terms such as 'large Recreation Deck and Meeting Room,' 'recreation/meeting room,' 'recreation room,' and 'Party room.' These independent descriptions, plus MLS checkboxes, support that the building offers a shared meeting/community room.
Multiple listings (13/20 per current MLS data) reference building-level outdoor space: phrases include "Large Recreation Deck," "enormous recreation deck with BBQs and picnic tables," "recreation area, patio deck, BBQ area," and numerous mentions of private/enclosed lanais. Evidence is consistent across many agents and listings and confirms the building offers shared patio/deck amenities.

Public remarks frequently include 'putting green' in the amenity lists (often paired with pool, jacuzzi/whirlpool, sauna, tennis, and pickleball). The repetition across many units and agents confirms a shared putting green as a key building feature.
Consistent multi-listing evidence: 15 listings (current MLS) and many remarks mention a recreation area or large recreation deck/room, often quoted as 'recreation room', 'meeting room' or 'large recreation deck', indicating a substantive common amenity for residents.
Multiple listings reference dedicated indoor recreation or meeting spaces, including 'recreation/meeting room,' 'large Recreation Deck and Meeting Room,' 'Recreation Room,' and 'party room.' MLS amenities support this with RECROO in 10/20 listings and prior high confidence. These rooms are presented as common areas available to residents for gatherings and entertainment.

Across many listings, agents list 'sauna' together with the pool, jacuzzi/whirlpool, and courts as part of the resort-style package. The repetition and matter-of-fact tone strongly indicate one or more shared saunas in the building.
One listing’s remarks explicitly describe a building 'storage room' as part of the amenity package ('community laundry room, storage room'), indicating dedicated shared storage space in the building. MLS data also shows storage/extra storage checked in 1 of 20 listings, supporting the existence of this feature even though most agents do not mention it in remarks. Taken together, this is solid evidence that the building offers some form of common storage for residents.
Amenity lists include storage rooms and many recreational facilities, yet there is no explicit mention of 'surfboard storage', 'board storage', or similar. I searched for surf-related storage terms and found none in the remarks.
Clear recurring evidence: 18 listings (current MLS) and numerous public remarks include "tennis court(s)" or "tennis & pickleball courts," often cited alongside other resort-style amenities by different agents, showing the courts are a shared building amenity.
MLS checkbox data shows 15 listings flag a trash/garbage chute and multiple listings reference building-wide waste/pipe systems and common-area waste maintenance. Though few remarks explicitly say "trash chute," the consistent MLS coding plus infrastructure mentions support including this feature.

Clear corroboration across listings: 13 MLS listings note a whirlpool/spa and numerous public remarks use terms like "jacuzzi," "hot tub," and "whirlpool," typically listed together with the pool and sauna as shared resort-style amenities.
Strong, consistent evidence across all current listings: 20/20 MLS listings have the pool amenity checked and the public remarks repeatedly mention pool-related phrases such as 'sparkling swimming pool', 'heated pool', and 'swimming pool'. Mentions appear across many agents' remarks (not isolated), indicating the building offers a shared swimming pool as a standard amenity.
Several listings clearly describe a 'heated swimming pool' or 'heated pool,' not just a generic pool, indicating the building’s pool is temperature-controlled. Even though the heated-pool checkbox is inconsistently marked in MLS, repeated explicit mentions by different agents strongly support that the shared pool is heated.
The remarks repeatedly reference a pool (heated/sparkling) and spa/hot tub but contain no mentions of 'salt water', 'saltwater pool', 'salt pool', or 'saline pool'. I searched all pool-related descriptions for 'salt' terminology and found none.
Strong, consistent evidence across listings that some units have in-unit laundry: the MLS inclusion shows 20/20 listings with washer/dryer and numerous remarks explicitly state phrases such as "stacked washer and dryer", "in-unit laundry", and "washer/dryer in unit." Mentions appear in listings from multiple agents and are corroborated by repeated, specific references rather than isolated copy-paste absence.
At least 5 listings explicitly reference shared laundry, using phrases such as 'community laundry room', 'Community Laundry for large loads', 'Amenities include ... community laundry', and 'Loaded amenities includes ... Community Laundry Room'. Some listings mention both in-unit washer/dryer and community laundry, indicating the building offers common laundry facilities in addition to in-unit machines. Combined with MLS COMLAU entries on 7/20 listings, this provides strong, multi-agent evidence that Iolani Court Plaza has community laundry facilities.
Listings repeatedly mention "community laundry" or "community laundry room" but contain no terminology indicating payment is required (e.g., "coin-op", "quarters", "card operated", "paid laundry"). I searched all laundry-related remarks for payment terms and found none.
Multiple listings reference a community laundry room (e.g., "Community Laundry for large loads", "community laundry room") but there is no language indicating laundry facilities are provided on each floor. I searched the remarks for phrases like "laundry on each floor", "laundry room on every floor", and "floor-by-floor laundry" and found none.

15 of 20 current listings indicate assigned parking and many remarks explicitly reference assigned stalls, including phrases like "assigned covered stall," "assigned stall with remote entry," and "secure garage entry to your assigned covered stall." Evidence is consistent across multiple agent remarks and aligns with prior high-confidence data.
All 20 current listings indicate covered parking and many remarks explicitly mention "covered" or "secure garage" stalls (examples: "desirable covered secured parking stall," "2 covered parking," "secure garage entry"). The coverage is broad and repeatedly confirmed across multiple agent remarks.
Public remarks repeatedly describe assigned/covered parking stalls that come with the unit and multiple listings note 1 or 2 covered stalls included. I searched for phrases like "deeded parking", "owned parking", and "stall included" and found numerous explicit statements indicating parking is conveyed with the unit.
No analysis available
I searched for terms like "parking fee", "monthly parking charge", and "rented parking" and found no references. Given the frequent statements that stalls are included/assigned with the unit, there is no evidence of a separate monthly parking fee in the public remarks.
15 of 20 current listings list guest parking and many public remarks state "ample guest parking," "25 guest stalls," "dedicated guest parking floor," or "lots of guest parking." The repeated, consistent references across listings support high confidence that guest parking is available.
Listings repeatedly describe secure access to parking, using phrases such as 'secure parking garage... with remote entry,' 'covered secured parking stall,' 'secure garage entry to your assigned covered stall,' and 'secured building and parking.' Combined with 9/20 MLS entries marking secured entry, this shows that the parking area is access-controlled (gate/remote/card). Security is a recurring selling point across multiple independent listings.

I searched the public remarks for phrases such as "parking waitlist", "waiting list for parking", and "join waitlist for parking" and found no evidence. Absence of mention in the remarks suggests no publicized waitlist, but this cannot be confirmed from the listings alone.
No analysis available
The building is repeatedly described as secure with 24/7 security, secured entry, and video entry, but there is no explicit mention of card/fob/keycard access systems. I searched for terms such as 'key card access', 'fob access', 'card reader', and 'keycard entry' and found none.
Strong evidence that the building has staffed security: historical MLS data had SECGUA checked in 15/20 listings and numerous current remarks explicitly state "24 hour security", "24/7 security", or "24 hrs security" (appearing in many agent remarks). Phrases include "24 hour security", "24/7 security", and "24 hrs security and security entry with video", indicating consistent confirmation across multiple listings rather than isolated copy/paste.
Numerous remarks highlight robust on-site security, including references to 24/7 security and security guards. This aligns with the previously established high-confidence determination that the building has an active security patrol/guard presence. With no evidence to the contrary, the security_patrol feature remains set to true.
No analysis available
Strong evidence that the building has central air: MLS checkbox data indicates 17/20 listings list central AC and 18/20 include ACCEN, and numerous public remarks explicitly state 'central AC' or 'central air conditioning' (e.g., 'central air conditioning', 'central A/C', 'maintenance fee includes central AC'). References appear across multiple agents and listings, not isolated to a single copy/paste entry, supporting inclusion of this building-level feature.

All 20 of 20 current MLS listings for this building list CONCRE in construction materials, strongly indicating reinforced concrete construction. Public remarks do not explicitly mention construction type but contain no contradictory statements; the unanimous MLS checkbox across multiple listings/agents provides robust evidence that the building is concrete.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Confidence 86%: Only 2/20 MLS entries mark MASSTU while the rest list only concrete, and no remarks mention masonry or stucco construction, suggesting those MASSTU entries are likely agent miscoding rather than a defining building material.

I reviewed the remarks for evidence of STR/TVU/NUC or phrases allowing vacation or nightly rentals and found none. Because the public remarks do not state STR is permitted, the conservative determination is STR not allowed (medium confidence); there is no language in the listings indicating legal short-term rental authorization.
The building is consistently described as a residential condominium with amenities, not as part of a hotel operation or rental pool. With no hotel-program mentions and STRs treated as disallowed, a hotel rental pool is ruled out.
I looked for phrases like 'mandatory hotel pool', 'must be in rental program', or similar requirements and found none. Since there is no evidence of any hotel pool at all, participation cannot be mandatory.

The building is consistently described as fee simple, so there is no land lease to expire. Because no leasehold or expiry information appears in the remarks, the lease expiry year is not applicable and is set to null.
Multiple listings explicitly target VA buyers and mention assumable VA loans, which only work in VA-approved buildings. No remarks contradict VA eligibility, so the building is considered VA approved with high confidence.
Multiple independent remarks emphasize that the building’s hurricane insurance is '100% funded,' which in this context describes comprehensive building coverage paid via the association. This strongly supports that the HOA carries full building insurance (effectively walls-in coverage) for owners.
Strong evidence across listings that Iolani Court Plaza has a building-wide fire sprinkler system. At least 12+ separate listing remarks explicitly reference 'sprinklers', 'sprinkler system', or 'fire sprinklers' (e.g., 'Each unit is equipped with fire sprinklers', 'Fully updated ... sprinkler system', 'Building has sprinklers to comply with fire safety regulations'), appearing in listings from multiple agents rather than a single copy/paste source.
Public remarks consistently describe building-wide sprinklers, updated fire alarm systems, emergency speaker/siren systems, and backup power specifically for emergencies. This repeated emphasis on compliance and robust life-safety infrastructure strongly indicates that the building has passed its fire/life safety evaluation.

At least 8 separate listing remarks explicitly reference ocean or ocean-facing views (quotes include 'mountain-to-ocean views' and 'Spectacular Ocean, City and Mountain Views'), including high-floor and penthouse listings. Evidence is strong and repeated across multiple agents/units, indicating the building offers ocean-view units despite the MLS checkbox summary.
Mountain views are mentioned throughout the remarks in many listings (20+ occurrences across unit descriptions), with phrases like 'breathtaking mountain vistas', 'mountain-to-ocean views', and 'panoramic Diamond Head and mountain views.' The repeated, specific references across high-floor, corner, and penthouse listings provide strong evidence the building offers mountain-view units.
No analysis available
City views are explicitly cited in many listing remarks (20+ occurrences), with lines such as 'breathtaking unobstructed city and mountain vistas', 'watching the city lights', and 'expansive city views.' The consistent, multi-listing references indicate the building offers units with city views.

Sunset exposure is directly confirmed by remarks like 'Beautiful City and Sunset View' and a private lanai that is 'perfect... to catch beautiful sunsets and enjoy watching the city lights in the evening.' A high-floor unit also highlights watching Hilton fireworks, consistent with a west-facing, evening-sun orientation. While not every listing mentions sunsets, repeated explicit references show that certain units in this building do offer notable sunset views.
No analysis available
A high-floor unit description clearly notes the ability to watch Hilton Friday night fireworks from the unit. This confirms that at least some units in the building have direct fireworks views. Therefore, the building is marked as having a fireworks view feature.
No analysis available
Multiple listings mention on-site management or a resident manager at Iolani Court Plaza. At least 4–6 independent remarks note 'resident manager', 'on-site management', or 'on-site management'/'on-site management present' (e.g., 'resident manager and Iolani Mini Mart', 'Excellent security, and on-site management'), supporting inclusion of this building-level feature.
