Kapiolani 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.

The public remarks directly state an 86% owner occupancy ratio, which matches the current value. No conflicting listing remarks were found, so this is a strong, confirmed data point.
I searched the public remarks for any explicit elevator count or wording indicating multiple elevators, but none was found. Since no current numeric value was provided in the remarks, the elevator count remains unknown from this 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.

Cable TV inclusion is well supported across the listings. Several remarks explicitly mention "basic cable" or "Cable TV" as part of the maintenance fee, and the current MLS data is already strong at 15/19. This looks like consistent building-level inclusion rather than a one-off agent error.
The evidence supports common expenses/common-area electrical costs being included in the maintenance fee. One remark explicitly says the fee includes "electricity, hot water, and other common expenses," and the current MLS data shows OTCOEX in 15/19 listings. The repeated phrasing suggests agents are drawing from the same building-level fee description.
No analysis available
Electricity inclusion is confirmed in many listings and is one of the most consistent features in the remarks. Multiple listings explicitly say the maintenance fee includes electricity, and several others repeat the same language. The MLS pattern is highly consistent, so confidence is very high.
No analysis available
Hot water inclusion is directly confirmed in multiple listings. Phrases like "maintenance fee includes electricity, hot water" and "Maintenance fee includes: water, hot water, sewer, electricity" appear repeatedly, matching the strong MLS signal. There is no contrary evidence suggesting individual water heaters instead of building-supplied hot water.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Sewer inclusion is repeatedly confirmed across the listing set. At least 3 current remarks explicitly name sewer in the maintenance fee, with wording like 'maintenance fee includes... sewer' and 'water and sewer,' and the historical MLS data shows SEWER in 19/20 listings. The evidence is consistent across multiple agents and appears stable rather than copy-paste error.
Water inclusion is strongly supported by the remarks and historical MLS records. Several listings explicitly mention water as included in the maintenance fee, often alongside electricity, hot water, and sewer, and the current MLS data shows WATER in 19/20 listings. This is consistent across multiple sources and does not look like a one-off agent error.

The building clearly offers patio/deck-style amenities, with many listings mentioning lanais or balconies. At least 10+ remarks reference outdoor space, including phrases like 'two distinct lanais,' 'wrap-around lanai,' 'spacious lanai,' and 'large and usable balcony.' This is consistent across multiple listings and does not look like a one-off copy-paste error.

Multiple listings confirm shared recreational amenities, with one remark stating "Building amenities include a pool, BBQ grills, recreation deck, resident manager, and community laundry." That explicit phrasing strongly supports a common recreation area for residents. The evidence appears consistent across agents and not like a one-off copy/paste error.

There is no corroborating remark evidence for storage units or lockers in any of the provided listings. The only signal is a single MLS unit-level checkbox, while building-level amenity data is otherwise absent, so this does not support treating storage unit access as a building feature.
I searched for surfboard-storage-related terms such as surfboard storage, board storage, or surf storage. The listings mention amenities like pool, laundry, parking, and security, but nothing about surfboard storage.
No analysis available
Trash chute appears to be a real building feature based on repeated MLS amenity data: 15 of 20 listings include TRACHU. The public remarks do not explicitly say "trash chute" or "garbage chute," but there is also no contrary evidence suggesting the feature was removed. Overall this looks like a consistent building amenity rather than a one-off agent error.

Pool is strongly supported across the listing set and appears to be a shared building amenity. At least 10+ remarks explicitly mention it, including phrases like "a pool," "community pool," "large Open Pool," "sparkling pool," and "swimming pool," often alongside other common amenities. The consistency across multiple agents suggests this is a real building feature rather than copy-paste noise.
No analysis available
I looked for explicit salt-water pool wording. The building clearly has a pool, but the remarks never identify it as saltwater, so there is no basis to mark it true.
No analysis available
Community/shared laundry is strongly confirmed across the building. Multiple recent listings explicitly mention it with phrases like "community laundry," "on-site laundry facilities," and "common washer & dryers," and the MLS data shows 20/20 listings have COMLAU checked. The evidence is consistent across multiple agents and appears to reflect a real building amenity rather than a copy-paste error.
I searched for paid-laundry wording such as coin laundry, card-operated machines, quarters, or a laundry fee. The remarks confirm community laundry exists, but they do not say it requires payment, so there is no evidence to mark it as paid.
I looked for language like laundry on each floor, every floor, or floor-by-floor laundry. The only explicit mention places the common laundry in one area on the 3rd floor by the pool, so there is no support for every-floor laundry.
Parking is strongly supported across the listing set: nearly every remark mentions a parking stall, covered parking, or garage. Examples include “parking stall,” “1 assigned parking stall,” “1 secured, covered parking stall,” and “Secured Parking Garage,” indicating this building offers parking consistently rather than as a rare exception.
Assigned/reserved parking is well supported by both MLS checkbox data and repeated remarks. Multiple independent listings use phrases like “assigned parking,” “1 assigned parking stall,” “assigned and covered parking,” and “deeded/assigned-style language,” suggesting this is a genuine building-level feature rather than a copy-paste error.
Covered parking is clearly supported across many listings for this building. Multiple agents describe it directly with phrases like 'covered parking stall,' '1 secured, covered parking stall,' and 'inside a secured garage,' which aligns with the current MLS pattern showing covered parking in most listings. This appears consistent and not just copy-paste noise.
I searched for deeded parking indicators such as deeded stall, owned parking, or parking included in the deed. The listings only describe assigned, covered, or secured stalls, which is not enough to call the parking deeded.
No analysis available
I looked for any mention of parking charges, parking rentals, or additional monthly parking costs. None were found, so there is no evidence to confirm a parking fee.
No analysis available
Secured parking/entry is supported by multiple current remarks and the MLS SECENT flag on more than half the listings. The language is consistent across agents, including “secured entry,” “gated/secured garage,” and “fob-entry building,” which strongly supports that the building’s parking or access is secured.
No analysis available
No analysis available
I searched for parking waitlist language such as waiting list, join the waitlist, or parking availability queues. Nothing in the remarks suggests a waitlist system, so this appears absent.
No analysis available
I searched for key card, fob, card-reader, or other electronic access language. The remarks directly confirm fob-entry/secured entry, which is strong evidence of card/fob access security.
No analysis available
I looked for any indication of patrol service or roaming security staff. The public remarks discuss secured entry and an on-site resident manager, but they do not describe a security patrol.
No analysis available
Across the provided remarks, the AC evidence points to unit-level cooling, not central air: multiple listings say “split AC,” “two approved split AC units,” or “AC split unit,” while others rely on tradewinds and note “no ac” in one bedroom. Only 1 of 20 MLS listings has ACCEN/CENAC flagged, which is weak compared with the consistent remarks and suggests the central AC checkbox is probably not reliable for this building.
Split AC is strongly supported across the listing history and current remarks. Multiple agents explicitly mention it, including phrases like “two approved split AC units,” “AC split unit in the diamond head bedroom,” and “Unit has a split AC in the bedroom.” This appears consistent across many listings rather than a one-off checkbox entry.
No analysis available
Concrete construction appears to be a stable building-level characteristic for Kapiolani Towers. MLS data is extremely consistent at 19 of 20 current listings, and there are no remarks suggesting a different construction type or a recent change. This looks like repeat MLS data rather than a one-off agent entry.

The remarks directly deny short-term rentals in the building. That is strong evidence that STRs are not allowed, so this is set to false with high confidence.
I looked for hotel rental pool, branded hotel management, or pool-program language, but found none. Since the remarks explicitly say no short-term rentals, a hotel pool arrangement is also not supported and must be false.
I searched for mandatory hotel pool wording such as required participation, cannot opt out, or must rent through hotel management. There is no such language, and because short-term rentals are explicitly prohibited, a mandatory pool cannot apply here.

No analysis available
I looked for leasehold language, ground lease references, and any 4-digit lease expiry year, but found none. The remarks instead describe the property as fee simple, which suggests no lease-expiry date applies here.
Public remarks directly confirm VA financing eligibility. The clearest evidence is the explicit VA approval language, reinforced by the VA assumable mention. This is high-confidence and current.
I searched for insurance coverage language such as fully insured, full insurance, or walls-in coverage. The remarks mention maintenance fee inclusions like electricity, cable, and water, but they do not describe the HOA insurance status.
No analysis available
I reviewed the remarks for any fire/life safety compliance statements, including FLSE pass references and fire inspection language. Nothing in the listings confirms that the building has passed a fire/life safety evaluation, so this cannot be marked true from the remarks.
Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.

Mountain views are well supported for this building. Across the current remarks, multiple listings explicitly mention "mountain views," "lush mountain views," and "mountain breeze," while the MLS view data also shows mountain in 7 of 20 listings. The repeated phrasing across different listings suggests this is a real building-level view option, not just a single-agent copy-paste error.
No analysis available
City views are strongly supported for this building. The current MLS data shows CITY in 17 of 20 listings, and several remarks directly reference "city skyline," "sweeping city views," and "view facing the Waikiki Sunsets." This broad consistency across many listings indicates city views are a legitimate feature offered by the building.

I looked for explicit references to fireworks views from a unit or balcony, not just proximity to fireworks locations. The listings describe other view types, but nothing about fireworks visibility from the building.
No analysis available
Resident manager is strongly supported for this building. Multiple current listings explicitly say "on-site resident manager," "on site manager," and "full-time resident manager," and the historical MLS data is already high confidence with 17/20 listings showing RESMAN. The evidence appears consistent across multiple agents rather than a single copy-paste error.
