Kahala 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.

Searched all remarks for explicit owner-occupancy figures or clear descriptors. Found none, so cannot assign a numeric percentage. Per rules, do not guess numeric owner-occupancy without explicit evidence.
Searched all public remarks for explicit numeric mentions (e.g., '4 elevators', 'four elevators', 'multiple elevators'). Found references such as 'NEW elevators' and 'convenient to ... elevators' but no number given, so cannot determine count. Per rules, do not guess a numeric value without explicit evidence.
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.

Evidence is strong that cable TV is included: 11/20 MLS listings list CABTV in association_fee_includes and a public remark explicitly states "Maintenance fee includes cable tv." The statement appears across different agent listings (not isolated), so this is likely a genuine building-level inclusion rather than a single-agent copy/paste.
No public remarks reference common area electricity despite 11/20 MLS checkboxes (OTCOEX). Historical confidence was Medium and agent copy/paste is possible, so evidence for inclusion is weak/ambiguous and not confirmed in remarks.

Strong evidence that hot water is NOT included: 0/20 MLS listings check HOTWAT and 16/20 list WTRHTR in inclusions, with many remarks explicitly referencing a 'tankless water heater' or similar. This indicates units supply their own hot water rather than the association including it in maintenance fees.

Clear and consistent evidence that sewer is included: 19/20 MLS listings check SEWER and a public remark explicitly states "Maintenance fee includes ... sewer." The consistency across MLS data and remarks indicates this is a genuine building-level inclusion.
Strong evidence that water is included: 19/20 MLS listings list WATER in association_fee_includes and a public remark explicitly states "Maintenance fee includes ... water." The consistency across multiple listings and explicit remarks supports including this feature.
Strong evidence: many listings reference building BBQ facilities (examples: "pool and BBQ," "BBQ area," "BBQ areas"). At least a dozen separate remarks explicitly mention a BBQ or BBQ area across multiple agents, consistent with prior high-confidence MLS data indicating the BBQ amenity is widely offered.

Only 1/20 MLS listings indicate a putting green and there are no mentions of "putting green" or similar in the public remarks. The MLS presence appears isolated and uncorroborated by agent remarks, so evidence for a building putting green is weak.
Moderate evidence: while only a small number of listings explicitly list 'recreation area', multiple remarks reference shared amenity/entertainment spaces and outdoor amenity features ("entertainment spaces, adult and children's swimming pools, walking paths"), suggesting the building offers common recreation amenities accessible to residents.

Amenities listed across the remarks include pool, BBQ, parking, and on-site management, but there are no references to surfboard or board storage facilities. No evidence in the public remarks supports surfboard storage.
No analysis available
Strong evidence: trash chute is frequently represented in MLS checkbox data and is explicitly called out in the remarks (example: "Convenient to trash chute and elevators"). The preponderance of listings and agent remarks supports that the building has a trash chute system.

Strong, consistent evidence across listings that the building has a pool: 20 of 20 active listings reference pool-related amenities. Representative quotes include "sparkling pool," "swimming pool," "refreshing pool," and "salt water pool." The mentions appear across multiple agents and listings (not isolated), supporting high confidence that the building offers pool amenities.
No analysis available
The public remarks explicitly mention a 'salt water pool' (e.g., 'NEW elevators, salt water pool'), which directly supports a high-confidence designation that the pool is saltwater. Marked true with high confidence.
Strong evidence that some units have in-unit laundry: 19 of 20 recent listings include washer/dryer in inclusions and multiple remarks explicitly state "in-unit washer/dryer", "full-size washer & dryer", or "washer/dryer laundry center." This evidence is consistent across many agent remarks (not a single isolated listing), supporting a high-confidence true for laundry_in_unit.
No analysis available
I searched the listings for any indication that community laundry is paid (coin-op, card reader, quarters, etc.) and found no such language. Most units advertise in-unit washers/dryers or hall laundry, with no reference to paid common laundry.
I reviewed all public remarks for explicit statements indicating laundry facilities on every floor and found none. Remarks repeatedly reference in-unit washers/dryers and occasional hall laundry areas, but no claim of laundry on each floor.
Strong evidence across MLS: 20 of 20 listings include parking checkbox values (OPEN/ASSIGNED/GARAGE/COVERED). Remarks repeatedly note "assigned parking stall", "one assigned parking stall", and "parking stall #...", showing consistent documentation across many agents rather than isolated copy/paste.
Assigned parking is commonly offered at Kahala Towers: 15 of 20 MLS checkbox entries list ASSIGN, and many remarks explicitly state "one assigned parking stall" or "1 assigned covered parking stall" (multiple listings quote phrases like "1 assigned parking stall"), indicating assigned/reserved stalls are a building feature.
Moderate evidence: 6 of 20 MLS records indicate covered/garage stalls and several public remarks explicitly say "covered parking stall(s)" or "one assigned covered parking stall" (also one listing advertises "TWO COVERED PARKING STALLS"). Multiple agent remarks corroborate that some units have covered stalls, though not universal across all listings.
Reviewed all listings for explicit language such as 'deeded parking', 'owned parking', or 'parking included in deed' and found none. Multiple remarks mention 'assigned' or 'covered/open' stalls (e.g., 'one assigned parking stall', 'Two parking stalls'), which indicates assigned/allocated parking but does not confirm deeded ownership, so parking_deeded is set to false with medium confidence.
No analysis available
Searched remarks for 'parking fee', 'monthly parking', 'parking rental', or any dollar amount for parking and found no references. Because no parking fee information is provided in the remarks, the monthly parking fee is unknown.
Moderate evidence: 5 of 20 listings have the GUEST checkbox and many public remarks state "guest parking" or "ample guest parking". While not shown on every listing, guest parking is repeatedly mentioned across multiple agent remarks, indicating building-level guest parking is available though not uniformly documented.

Looked for language indicating a parking waitlist (e.g., 'parking waitlist', 'join waitlist for parking') and found none. Absence of any mention leads to a medium-confidence false determination.
No analysis available
Listings mention secure entry, security guard, and cameras but do not mention electronic card/fob access or a card reader system. Absence of explicit card/fob language suggests the building likely does not advertise card-based access in the public remarks.
Historical MLS data listed SECGUA on 19 of 20 listings. Multiple current remarks explicitly mention building security — examples include "features security, on-site manager & swimming pool," "secure entry," "security guard, and security cameras," and "24/7 security." Evidence is consistent across several agent remarks and aligns with prior high-confidence MLS checkbox data, indicating the building offers on-site/security guard service.
Public remarks explicitly reference 24/7 security and a security guard/on-site manager (e.g., '24/7 security', 'security guard', 'security cameras'), which supports that the building has active security/patrol services. Marked true with high confidence.

MLS checkbox data indicates concrete construction in 18 of 20 current listings (summary previously flagged 18/20). None of the public remarks explicitly state 'concrete' or 'reinforced concrete', so the evidence is primarily the consistent MLS checkbox usage across many agents rather than explicit remark text; confidence is moderate (implied).
4 of 20 current MLS listings check 'DOUWAL' for double-wall construction, but none of the public remarks mention double-wall construction. Included because some listings indicate it, but confidence is low due to lack of remark corroboration (0.40).

Only 1 of 20 current MLS listings checks 'SLAB' and there are zero mentions of 'concrete slab' or 'solid concrete foundation' in the public remarks. Due to the single checkbox and no corroborating remarks, the feature is included with low confidence (0.25).

No analysis available
Only 7 of 20 current MLS listings have 'ABOGRO' checked, and none of the public remarks mention 'above ground' construction or related details. With no historical verification and no explicit remarks, the checkbox usage appears inconsistent and likely copy/paste; therefore this feature is omitted as a verified building-level attribute.

Searched all remarks for explicit short-term rental language or minimum-stay rules and found nothing indicating STR is permitted or discussed. With no explicit allowance in the remarks, str_allowed is set to false with medium confidence.
Searched for any mention of a hotel rental pool or hotel-managed rental program and found none. Because str_allowed is not indicated and no hotel pool language appears, str_hotel_pool is false with medium confidence.
Looked for explicit phrases such as 'mandatory hotel pool', 'required to participate', or 'must be in rental program' and found none. Given no STR allowance and no rental-pool language, str_mandatory_pool is false with medium confidence.

Searched for terms indicating a leasehold or a lease expiry year (e.g., 'lease expires 20xx', 'land lease to 20xx') across all remarks and found none. Without any leasehold language or a specific year, the lease expiry is unknown.
Searched all public remarks for phrases like 'VA approved', 'VA financing', and 'VA loans accepted' and found no references. Because there is no explicit statement in the remarks, financing_va is set to false with medium confidence.
Searched for explicit indications that the HOA provides full/walls-in building insurance (e.g., 'fully insured', 'walls-in coverage', 'comprehensive building insurance'). No listings included such language, so set to false with medium confidence based on no mentions.
No analysis available
Searched remarks for explicit language indicating the building passed a fire/life safety evaluation (e.g., 'FLSE passed', 'passed fire inspection', 'fire safety certified'). Found no such statements in any listing remarks, so set to false with medium confidence due to absence of evidence.

Strong building-level evidence: ocean/Pacific/makai views are explicitly mentioned across numerous listings (e.g., "ocean views", "panoramic ocean", "Wake up to breathtaking sunrises... stunning ocean views"). Multiple agents and listings consistently reference ocean views, matching historical MLS indications, so the building offers ocean-view units.
No analysis available
Multiple listings explicitly reference Diamond Head views (e.g., "Diamond Head views", "Diamond Head directly from your living room", "sweeping... views stretching from Diamond Head to Koko Head"). Evidence is consistent across many agent remarks, indicating the building offers Diamond Head-view units.
Only 1 of 20 MLS view checkboxes indicates 'CITY', but across all public remarks none explicitly mention city/downtown/cityscape; instead remarks repeatedly cite ocean, Diamond Head, Koko Head, golf course and neighborhood views. Given the lack of supporting remarks and the high likelihood of checkbox copy/paste errors among agents, evidence does not support listing a building-level city view.
Several listings explicitly reference coastline/shoreline views (e.g., "panoramic coastline & tree-top ocean view", "view of the ocean/coastline"). Multiple agent remarks corroborate the MLS entries, supporting that the building offers coastline-view units.
No analysis available
Some listings explicitly mention golf course or Waialae Country Club views (for example, "view of the ocean/coastline and Golf Course", "Waialae Country Club"). This is not as widespread as ocean or Diamond Head claims, but multiple agent remarks indicate the building does offer golf-course-view units.

There are numerous statements about ocean, Diamond Head, Koko Head, and panoramic views, but no explicit claims about viewing fireworks from the building or units. Therefore no evidence supports a fireworks view.

Strong evidence the building has a resident/on-site manager: 17 of 20 MLS listings have the RESMAN checkbox set, and the public remarks for this building repeatedly state "on-site management", "on-site manager", or "resident manager" across many listings (e.g., "Building amenities include ... on-site management", "resident manager", "on-site manager and office"). The mentions appear across multiple agent listings rather than being isolated, supporting high confidence that the building provides an on-site/resident manager.
