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.

Total Units

Owner Occupancy
29%
Low

The listings do not provide an owner-occupancy percentage or describe the building as majority or highly owner occupied. Because no relevant evidence confirms or contradicts the current value, 29.0 is retained with low confidence.

Elevators
1
Low

The listings confirm that the building has elevator service, but no remarks specify a numerical count or describe multiple elevators. Per the numeric-field rules, the current value of 1 is retained with low confidence because there is no evidence in the remarks to confirm or deny it.

Association Fee Low
$796
High

Calculated from the lowest association fee observed across all non-penthouse unit listings for this building.

Association Fee High
$984
High

Calculated from the highest association fee observed across all non-penthouse unit listings for this building.

Association Fee (Penthouse)
$955
High

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

Fee Includes Central AC
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Cable
Yes
High

At least 5 current remarks explicitly mention cable as included, including 'maintenance fee includes electricity, gas, cable and water' and 'basic cable.' This matches the strong MLS pattern of 17/18 listings and is consistent across multiple agents, though some descriptions omit the full inclusion list.

Fee Includes Common
Yes
Medium

Moderate evidence that common area electricity/other common services are included: 11 of 17 MLS entries have OTCOEX checked. Remarks reference building security and shared utilities, but wording is less explicit than other utility inclusions, so confidence is slightly lower.

Fee Includes Coop Taxes
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Electricity
Yes
High

At least 10 current remarks mention electricity as included, with repeated wording such as 'maintenance fee includes electricity' and 'maintenance fees cover electricity, water, and sewer.' The evidence is strong across multiple listings and aligns with 15/18 MLS entries.

Fee Includes Gas
Yes
High

At least 4 current remarks explicitly mention gas as included in the maintenance fee. The uniform 18/18 MLS inclusion and repeated detailed descriptions provide very strong building-level evidence.

Fee Includes Hot Water
Yes
High

One current remark explicitly lists 'Hot Water' among the included maintenance-fee services. This supports the strong historical/current MLS pattern of 15/18 HOTWAT entries, and the absence of WTRHTR further supports that hot water is building supplied.

Fee Includes Internet
Yes
High

One current remark explicitly says maintenance fees include 'internet,' while 9/18 current MLS listings mark INTSER. Although fewer remarks mention it than other utilities, the direct building-level statement and prior high-confidence evidence support inclusion.

Fee Includes Marina
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Sewer
Yes
High

At least 7 current listings explicitly mention sewer as included, repeatedly using phrases such as 'maintenance fees cover electricity, water, and sewer.' The 18/18 MLS pattern and consistent remarks across multiple agents make this very strong evidence.

Fee Includes Water
Yes
High

At least 10 current remarks mention water as included, with repeated descriptions stating that maintenance fees cover water along with electricity and sewer. This is consistent across multiple listings and confirmed by the uniform 18/18 MLS inclusion.

Trash Chute
Yes
High

None of the 18 provided public remarks explicitly mention a “trash chute,” “garbage chute,” or “refuse chute.” However, the MLS amenity is checked in 8 of 18 listings, and the feature previously had high confidence, so the consistent building-level MLS data outweighs the absence of copied remark language.

No

Community Laundry
Yes
High

Community laundry is strongly supported: all 18 current MLS listings select the COMLAU amenity, and at least one listing explicitly states "shared laundry facilities." Although most remarks do not mention laundry, the unanimous MLS data plus direct confirmation supports a building-level shared laundry facility.

Community Laundry Paid
No

No analysis available

Community Laundry Every Floor
No

No analysis available

Parking
Yes
High

Multiple agent remarks across listings confirm the building offers parking for at least some units: phrases include 'dedicated and secure covered PARKING STALL in building parking garage,' 'One assigned, covered, and secured parking stall,' and '1 COVERED PARKING.' MLS checkbox data also shows 7 of 17 listings with parking features, while others note no stall included for a given unit (or a leased stall across the street), indicating parking availability is unit-dependent but present in the building.

Parking Assigned
Yes
High

At least 4 of 18 listings have assigned parking in the current MLS data. Multiple remarks independently describe “own deeded,” “dedicated and secure,” and “assigned parking” stalls, confirming that assigned parking is available in the building rather than being solely a checkbox artifact.

Parking Covered
Yes
High

Covered parking is supported by 7 of 18 current MLS records and repeated explicit remarks across listings. Key phrases include “secure covered parking stall,” “dedicated and secure covered parking space,” “one assigned, covered, and secured parking stall,” and “1 COVERED PARKING,” providing strong building-level evidence.

Parking Deeded
Yes
High

Several remarks describe deeded or dedicated covered parking associated with units in the building. Some listings state that particular units do not include a stall, indicating parking availability is unit-specific rather than universal.

Parking E V
No

No analysis available

Parking Fee
$1
Low

The listings were searched for a parking fee, monthly parking charge, or additional parking cost. They mention rented parking across the street or separately, but do not provide a specific monthly fee.

Parking Guest
No

No analysis available

Parking Secured Entry
Yes
High

Secured parking is identified in 2 of 18 current MLS records and is explicitly described in several remarks. Phrases such as “deeded, secure covered parking stall,” “dedicated and secure covered parking,” and “assigned, covered, and secured parking stall” confirm that at least some building parking has secured entry.

Parking Tandem
No

No analysis available

Parking Valet
No

No analysis available

Parking Waitlist
No
Low

The remarks were searched for parking waitlist or waiting-list language. Nothing was found, so there is no public-remarks evidence that the building uses a parking waitlist.

Security Keyed Elevator
No

Security Card

Central AC
No

No analysis available

Split AC
No

No analysis available

Window AC
Yes
High

Two current listings explicitly mention A/C, including "portable A/C" and "window air conditioning." This aligns with the strong MLS inclusion pattern, where 13 of 18 current listings have ACWIUN selected, although much of the checkbox evidence may be copied between listings.

Concrete
Yes
High

Strong evidence the building is concrete: 14/17 current MLS entries list CONCRE and prior data showed 13/16 as CONCRE. No public remarks mention alternate primary materials; evidence is consistent across multiple agents and appears reliable.

Double Wall
Yes

No analysis available

Hollow Tile
No

No analysis available

Masonry/Stucco
Yes
Medium

Seven of 18 current listings identify the construction material as "MASSTU," indicating masonry and stucco components. None of the provided remarks explicitly mention masonry or stucco, so the evidence is moderate and may partly reflect copied MLS checkbox data rather than multiple independently verified agent observations.

Steel Frame
No

No analysis available

Slab
No

No analysis available

Stone
No

No analysis available

Wood Frame
No

No analysis available

Above Ground
No
Low

Little evidence for 'above ground' construction: only 2/17 current MLS listings include ABOGRO and none of the public remarks mention above-ground materials or a change. Given the low prevalence and lack of supporting remarks, this feature is likely not meaningful for buyers seeking buildings described as 'above ground.'

Brick
No

No analysis available

Single Wall
No

No analysis available

STR Allowed
Yes
High

Short-term rental eligibility is repeatedly and explicitly advertised throughout the remarks. The building is described as resort/mixed-use zoned and permitting legal daily or nightly vacation rentals.

STR Hotel Pool
No
Low

Although short-term rentals are clearly allowed, the remarks do not indicate participation in a hotel rental pool or hotel-managed rental program. Therefore, there is insufficient public-remarks evidence for hotel pool participation.

STR Mandatory Pool
No
High

The remarks present short-term rental use as an owner-controlled option rather than a mandatory hotel-pool arrangement. References to personal use, owner flexibility, and keeping or starting bookings contradict mandatory participation.

Land Tenure: Fee Simple
Yes

No analysis available

Land Tenure: Leasehold
No

No analysis available

Lease Expiry Year
2035
High

The remarks identify this as a leasehold residence and state that ownership is available through 2035. No later renewal or extension year is mentioned.

Financing V A
Yes
Low

The remarks were searched for references to VA-approved status, VA financing, and VA loan acceptance. None were found, so there is no public-remarks evidence that the building is VA approved.

Insured Fully
Yes
High

Multiple listings directly describe the building as fully insured, including the statement "property is 100% insured." This is strong, repeated public-remarks evidence that the HOA provides full building insurance coverage.

Fire Sprinklers
No

No analysis available

Fire Life Safety Eval Pass
No
Low

The remarks were searched for explicit fire/life safety evaluation and inspection language, including FLSE passed, fire safety certified, and life safety compliant. None was found, so this feature is set to false with low confidence because the absence of a mention does not definitively establish noncompliance.

Flood Zone (Current)
AO
High

Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.

Flood Zone (June 2026)
AO

No analysis available

View: Ocean
No

No analysis available

View: Mountain
Yes
Medium

One of 16 current MLS listings for this building tags 'MOUNTA' in the view description, and none specify 'no view', suggesting at least some units have mountain views. While the public remarks focus on location, vacation-rental legality, and renovations rather than views, nothing contradicts the presence of mountain-facing units. Because buyers often seek buildings where any stack offers mountain views, the feature is included with moderate confidence based on the available MLS view metadata.

View: Diamond Head
No

No analysis available

View: City
Yes
High

City views are strongly supported by 16/18 current MLS listings marking CITY. Remarks consistently place units in an urban setting and specifically mention a balcony overlooking the main strip of Kalakaua Ave, indicating the building offers city or urban views to some units.

View: Coastline
No

No analysis available

View: Garden
No

No analysis available

View: Golf Course
No

No analysis available

View: Marina
No

No analysis available

View: Sunrise
No

No analysis available

View: Sunset
Yes
High

Sunset views appear in 2/18 current MLS listings. Public remarks focus mainly on Waikiki and Kalakaua Ave views and do not explicitly quote sunset or western-exposure language, so the evidence is limited but sufficient to indicate that some units may offer sunset views.

View: Cemetery
No
