Kapiolani Residence
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.

The remarks contain no quantitative or qualitative statements about owner-occupancy. I searched for explicit percentages and descriptors (e.g., 'majority owner occupied', '% owner occupied') and found none, so the owner-occupancy percentage is unknown from these remarks.
The public remarks do not state the number of elevators. I searched the remarks for explicit numeric or textual references to elevators (e.g., '4 elevators', 'multiple elevators') and found none, so the number is unknown from remarks.

Multiple recent Kapiolani Residence listings describe very low maintenance fees that 'include cable and internet service' or 'include... internet and cable TV,' and 16/20 MLS entries check CABTV. While one remark notes cable is shown as a separate line item on the maintenance bill, the broader and repeated language across several agents supports that building association fees customarily include cable TV service.
8 of 20 current MLS listings include OTCOEX (common electric) in association_fee_includes, but none of the public remarks explicitly say 'common area electricity included.' Evidence is mixed and likely applies to some units/associations only; appears to be inconsistent across agent entries rather than uniformly documented in remarks.

No listings indicate HOTWAT in association_fee_includes and many units list WTRHTR (in-unit water heaters). Public remarks contain no mention of hot water being included in HOA/maintenance, so hot water is not included in fees.
Several recent Kapiolani Residence remarks clearly state that the low maintenance or HOA fees include internet, often paired with cable and sometimes water and sewer. Combined with 16/20 MLS records marking internet service in association_fee_includes, there is strong, building-wide evidence that internet is included in the HOA fee package.
No analysis available
Strong, consistent evidence across listings: 19 of 20 MLS entries list SEWER in association_fee_includes and multiple public remarks explicitly state 'includes water and sewer' or 'maintenance includes sewer,' indicating sewer is included in HOA/maintenance fees.
High-confidence evidence: 19 of 20 MLS listings show WATER in association_fee_includes and many public remarks explicitly note that HOA/maintenance fees 'include water,' so water is included in the maintenance/HOA fees.
Strong evidence that the building provides BBQ/grilling facilities: 19/20 current MLS listings list BBQ and public remarks repeatedly mention "BBQ area", "barbecue area", and "amenity deck offers space to gather and grill." Mentions come from multiple listings/agents and consistently describe a shared building amenity rather than a private feature.

Multiple listings for Kapiolani Residence describe security staff, 24-hour security, on-site management, and a resident manager, but none mention concierge service, a front desk, or a staffed lobby. Current MLS data shows just 3 of 20 listings with the concierge box checked, suggesting inconsistent agent input rather than a real building feature. Taken together, the evidence strongly indicates that the building does not offer concierge service at this time.

Remarks from numerous independent listings describe a shared recreation/amenities deck with BBQ, cabanas, outdoor pavilions, and similar outdoor spaces, indicating a clear building-level deck amenity. Several listings also mention private or open lanais for units, reinforcing that the building offers patio/deck-style outdoor living areas. Although only 4 of 20 MLS entries check the patio/deck box, the consistent language across remarks provides strong evidence this feature exists.

Listings mention a “recreation deck,” an “amenities deck” offering BBQ and outdoor pavilions, and a “recreational deck on top of the parking structure at 9th floor” with BBQ and cabanas. Even though only 6/20 MLS entries have RECARE checked, the detailed, repeated descriptions confirm a substantial shared recreation/amenity area for residents.
Remarks describe a “recreation room” on the amenities deck, a “comfortable recreation room to host your next small gathering,” and a “party room” alongside other building amenities. These repeated references from multiple listings strongly support that the building has a shared recreation/party room.

I searched for 'surfboard storage', 'board storage', and 'surf storage' and found no references. Given repeated mentions of bicycle storage but none for surfboard storage, there is no evidence the building provides surfboard storage.
No analysis available
Evidence supports that the building has a trash chute: 17/20 current MLS listings list TRACHU and several public remarks explicitly state "trash chute." The references appear across listings from multiple agents and describe a building-level refuse chute available to residents.

I searched the remarks for any pool references (including 'salt water', 'saltwater', 'pool') and found none. Given explicit absence of any pool-related amenity and the building context (pool=False), the pool_salt feature is false.
Strong evidence that some units in Kapiolani Residence have in-unit laundry: numerous listings (many separate public remarks) state phrases like "in unit washer and dryer", "stackable front-load washer and dryer", and "full-sized washer and dryer". Historical MLS data also showed 19 of 20 listings including washer/dryer, so the evidence is consistent across multiple agents and listings.
No analysis available
I searched for 'coin', 'coin-op', 'quarters', 'card operated', and similar terms and found no references. Listings emphasize full-size or stackable in-unit washers and dryers, so there is no evidence of paid community laundry.
I searched the public remarks for phrases like 'laundry on each floor', 'laundry room on every floor', and 'floor-by-floor laundry' but found none. Multiple remarks explicitly reference private in-unit washer/dryer instead, so there is no evidence of community laundry on every floor.
No analysis available
Multiple listings explicitly mention assigned parking (phrases include 'one assigned parking stall', 'your own assigned parking stall', and 'assigned uncovered parking space'), appearing across units and agents. Historical MLS checkbox data (11/20) already indicated assigned stalls; current remarks strongly confirm the building offers assigned parking for units.
Strong evidence that the building offers covered parking: 17/20 current MLS checkbox entries indicate covered parking and at least 6–8 different public remarks explicitly reference covered or assigned covered stalls (quotes: "one covered parking stall included", "1 covered secured parking stall", "2 covered side by side parking"). Mentions appear across multiple listings/agents and align with historical data, so include parking_covered=true with high confidence.
Searched for explicit wording that parking is deeded/owned with the unit. Multiple listings reference assigned/covered parking stalls included with units, but none explicitly state parking is deeded, so marked false with low confidence.
No analysis available
Searched for 'parking fee', 'monthly parking charge', or similar phrases. Remarks reference assigned and guest parking but provide no parking fee amount or rental info, so the monthly parking fee is unknown.
Evidence supports that guest parking is available: 10/20 current MLS entries include guest parking and multiple remarks reference guest parking (quotes: "Generous 24 stalls of guest parking", "amenities include guest parking", "ample guest parking"). Mentions appear in multiple listings and are consistent with historical records, so include parking_guest=true with high confidence.
Remarks note a 'secured entrance' and specifically describe '1 covered secured parking stall', indicating that at least some stalls are behind controlled access. Additional phrases like 'secure access' and 24-hour security support the presence of a secured parking facility rather than an open lot. Even if not all stalls are equally described, the building clearly offers secured-entry parking.

Searched remarks for any indication of a parking waiting-list system. Listings describe assigned stalls and ample guest parking but do not reference a waitlist, so set to false with medium confidence.
No analysis available
I searched for 'key card', 'keycard', 'fob', 'card access', and similar phrases and found none. Although the building is described as secure, there is no explicit mention of card/fob access in the public remarks.
Historical MLS data indicated SECGUA in 15 of 20 listings. Current public remarks from multiple listings (≈8 listings) explicitly reference building security—phrases include 'professional security staff', 'security team', 'friendly on-site management and security staff', and '24-hour security'—showing consistent confirmation across different agents rather than isolated copy-paste.
Multiple listings describe on-site professional security staff and 24-hour security, indicating an active security presence consistent with security patrol. While 'patrol' is not always the exact word used, the repeated references to staffed security support a true value with good confidence.

Strong building-level evidence: 19 of 20 MLS listings include ACSPL and numerous public remarks explicitly state split/ductless systems (e.g., "Enjoy the comfort of split AC", "split ac units in each space", "split AC systems in each room", "2 split AC systems"). Mentions appear across many agent listings rather than a single outlier, supporting that multiple units in Kapiolani Residence have split (ductless/mini-split) AC.
No analysis available
High historical evidence (18 of 20 recent listings mark CONCRE) and current remarks explicitly describe a 'glass, and concrete high-rise' and note the building's 45-story new-build status. Multiple agents' remarks consistently reference concrete construction, providing strong, corroborating evidence that the building is concrete.
Five of 20 MLS listings have DOUWAL checked but there are zero public-remarks references to 'double wall' or 'double-wall construction'. With no descriptive confirmation in agent remarks and limited, inconsistent checkbox presence, the evidence indicates the building does not feature double-wall construction.

Only 2 of 20 MLS listings currently list BRICK and there are no public-remarks mentions such as 'brick exterior' or 'brick construction' across the listings. Given the absence of supporting remarks and low prevalence in MLS checkboxes, the evidence indicates the building is not brick-built (the few BRICK checks appear to be isolated/checkbox errors).
No analysis available
Searched for 'short-term rental', 'STR permitted', 'vacation rental', '30-day minimum', 'NUC', or similar. There are no explicit mentions allowing STR; instead HHFDC/residency restrictions are highlighted, so STR is marked false with medium confidence.
Searched for 'hotel rental pool', 'hotel rental program', or hotel-managed rental language. No references found; because STR is not indicated as allowed, hotel-pool participation is false.
Searched for phrases indicating mandatory participation in a hotel rental pool (e.g., 'mandatory hotel pool', 'must participate'). None were found. Per rules, because STR is not indicated as allowed, mandatory-pool is false; confidence is higher since no listings mention any hotel pool program at all.

Searched for explicit lease expiry years (e.g., 'lease expires 2050' or 'ground lease ends'). Listings mention HHFDC buyback/affordability timing (remaining years) but no 4-digit lease/ground-lease expiry year is provided, so the expiry year is unknown.
Searched all public remarks for explicit VA-related terms (e.g., 'VA approved', 'VA financing'). There are no references indicating VA loan approval or acceptance, so set to false with medium confidence.
The public remarks explicitly state the building is fully insured beginning Dec 6, 2024, which directly confirms full (walls-in) building insurance. No remarks contradict this statement.
Fire sprinklers are strongly supported: 11 of 20 MLS listings mark the FIRSPR amenity, and one listing explicitly advertises a “bonus in unit fire sprinkler and Washer and Dryer!!”. As a 2018 high-rise condominium, a building-wide sprinkler system is consistent with code requirements and agent descriptions. No remarks contradict the presence of sprinklers, so this feature is retained with high confidence.
There is no explicit remark that the building passed a fire/life safety evaluation (FLSE). I searched for phrases like 'fire life safety evaluation passed', 'FLSE passed', 'passed fire inspection' and found none; the presence of an in-unit fire sprinkler was noted but does not confirm an FLSE pass.

Confidence 98%: Although only 5/20 MLS view_descriptions explicitly list OCEAN, many remarks clearly describe ocean views, including "breathtaking ocean and beach views," "spectacular ocean and mountain views," "Mountain & Ocean Views – Corner 2-bedroom," and "Panoramic Diamond Head, Ocean, Canal, Mountain and City views." These references across multiple high-floor units show that some units in the building offer ocean views.
Strong, consistent evidence: many different listings mention mountain or mauka views (multiple remarks include phrases like "mountain views", "soothing mountain views", and "mountain and city views"). This aligns with prior high-confidence historical data showing the building offers mountain views and the evidence appears across multiple agent listings rather than a single copy/paste.
Limited but explicit evidence: at least one listing specifically states "Panoramic Diamond Head, Ocean, Canal, Mountain and City views," so buyers could find units with Diamond Head views. Evidence is isolated to a small number of remarks, so confidence is moderate.
Clear, repeated evidence: numerous listings emphasize city or downtown views (quotes include "sweeping city views", "city and mountain views", "panoramic...city views"). This confirms historical high-confidence data that the building offers city views.

Across all provided listings, agents repeatedly market ocean, mountain, city, sunset, and fireworks views but never mention sunrise, morning sun, or eastern exposure. Together with 0/20 MLS records flagging SUNRIS, this suggests with high confidence that sunrise views are not a meaningful or advertised feature of this building.
Multiple listings (at least 6) explicitly reference sunset or evening views, with phrases like "glowing sunsets," "sunset views," and "sunset views and fireworks visible over Waikiki on Friday nights." These repeated, explicit remarks across different unit listings corroborate prior MLS data and show the building offers sunset-view units.
No analysis available
Several listings explicitly state that residents can watch Friday night fireworks from the building/units, confirming a fireworks view amenity with high confidence.

Strong evidence the building has on-site/resident management: 15 of 20 current MLS listings have the RESMAN amenity checked and multiple public remarks explicitly mention 'friendly on-site management', 'management team & security team make this condo feel like home', and similar phrases. These confirmations appear across different agent remarks (not isolated to one listing), indicating a building-level resident/on-site manager presence with high confidence.
