Makaha Shores
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.

I searched all remarks for explicit owner-occupancy percentages or qualitative statements about high/majority owner occupancy. Listings describe rentals, vacation use and 30-day minimums but provide no numeric or clear qualitative owner-occupancy data, so the percentage is unknown and not inferred.
Multiple listings explicitly reference an elevator, confirming the building has at least one. No remark provides an explicit count, so the current value of 1 is retained per numeric-field rules (cannot change numeric 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.

14 of 17 current listings have CABTV in association_fee_includes. Public remarks do not explicitly mention cable, but the majority of agents checked the MLS box indicating cable TV is included; evidence appears consistent across multiple listings (possible copy/paste but widespread).
13 of 17 current listings carry the OTCOEX flag and historical data indicated high confidence. Remarks do not contradict this; MLS checkbox usage is consistent across many listings, supporting that common area electric is included in the association fees.

Historical data previously indicated hot water included (high confidence), but current MLS has HOTWAT in only 2 of 17 listings while WTRHTR appears in 8 of 17. Multiple remarks explicitly state 'tankless water heater' or 'sale includes tankless water heater', suggesting many units have in-unit water heaters; evidence is mixed so hot water is retained as included with moderate confidence.
5 of 17 current listings have INTSER in association_fee_includes. Remarks do not mention 'internet included' or 'wifi included', so MLS checkbox presence across several listings suggests internet may be included for some units but evidence is moderate and possibly copy/paste.
No analysis available
All 17 current listings list SEWER in association_fee_includes and historical records showed high confidence; MLS data is unanimous and consistent across agents, strongly supporting that sewer is included in HOA fees.
All 17 current listings include WATER in association_fee_includes and historical data confirmed this practice across the building. Remarks reference unit plumbing (e.g., 'valves have been added so you can shut the water off to the whole apartment') but do not contradict that water is covered by the association fees.
Strong evidence that the building has BBQ/grilling facilities: MLS checkbox data shows 15 of 17 listings include BBQ, and the public remarks repeatedly reference 'BBQ area', 'evening barbeque', and 'BBQ' in several listings. Mentions appear across multiple agent remarks rather than being isolated, indicating the amenity is broadly advertised and likely accurate.

Multiple listings describe unit lanais—"private lanai," "enclosed front lanai," and "spacious open lanai"—indicating that Makaha Shores offers patio/deck-style outdoor spaces. Combined with 7 of 15 MLS entries checking patio/deck-related amenities, the evidence strongly supports that this building provides lanai/patio areas for its units. Buyers seeking a building with patios/decks would reasonably be interested in this property.

Listings explicitly mention a dedicated lockable surfboard storage (fits up to 10ft). I searched for 'surfboard storage', 'board storage', and found direct language confirming surfboard storage facilities.
No analysis available
No public remarks explicitly reference a trash or garbage chute, but 8 of 15 MLS listings check the TRACHU amenity, suggesting a building-wide trash chute system. Because this type of feature is routinely omitted from prose remarks yet appears in a majority of amenity checklists, it is likely present, though with only moderate confidence.

High-confidence evidence that the building has a shared pool: MLS data indicates 17/17 listings list pool amenities and many public remarks state 'heated swimming pool', 'heated saltwater pool' or 'heated pool'. Mentions appear across multiple agent remarks (likely some copy-paste), but the consistent, explicit language in many listings strongly supports inclusion of this amenity.
Many listings explicitly describe a heated pool, using phrases like 'heated swimming pool', 'heated saltwater pool', and 'Amenities include heated pool'. At least 7 of 13 remark sets use the word 'heated' for the pool, and others mention a pool generally. Consistent, specific 'heated' language from multiple agents indicates the building’s pool is heated.
Public remarks state the pool is a heated saltwater pool. I searched for 'salt water pool', 'saltwater', and found a direct reference confirming a saline/saltwater pool.
At least one listing explicitly notes, 'Included is a washer/dryer and dishwasher,' confirming in‑unit laundry exists in some units. Current MLS data (2/15 listings with washer/dryer checked) is consistent with this being a partial‑building feature rather than universal. This is sufficient to treat in‑unit laundry as available in the building for buyers seeking that option.
High-confidence evidence that the building has shared laundry: historical MLS data shows 16 of 17 listings with COMLAU, and current remarks repeatedly state "coin/app laundry," "community laundry," and "common laundry." Mentions appear across multiple agent remarks rather than a single outlier, supporting inclusion of this feature.
Public remarks explicitly describe the building laundry as coin/app operated (paid). I searched for terms like 'coin-op', 'coin', 'app', 'paid laundry' and found a direct mention of coin/app laundry.
Public remarks reference community or common laundry but contain no language indicating laundry is provided on every floor. I searched for phrases such as 'laundry on each floor', 'laundry room on every floor', and 'floor-by-floor laundry' with no matches.
Multiple listings explicitly mention building parking, including 'one covered parking stall', 'convenient parking', and 'covered parking'. Current MLS data (16/16 with parking features, 0/16 with NONE) strongly supports that the building provides parking for units. Evidence is consistent across many different listings and agents, indicating this is a stable building feature.
Assigned parking is repeatedly confirmed across listings: at least 8–10 remark instances explicitly mention assigned/reserved parking ('One assigned covered parking stall', 'Assigned parking included', 'one assigned parking space'). Historical MLS data shows 16/17 listings with ASSIGN, and current remarks consistently reference assigned stalls, indicating strong, building-wide availability of assigned parking.
Covered parking is mentioned in multiple remarks: several units state '1 covered parking stall', 'One assigned covered parking stall', and 'covered parking' (including a specific 'covered paarking #17'). Combined with prior MLS checkbox data indicating covered stalls on many listings (about 8/17), there is strong evidence the building offers covered parking.
Multiple listings consistently state an assigned/covered parking stall is included with the unit, which suggests permanent assigned parking tied to the unit. However, the remarks do not explicitly say 'deeded' or 'owned parking', so I retain a true value but with low confidence. A deed or HOA doc reference would confirm whether the stall is actually deeded.
No analysis available
I searched the public remarks for terms like 'parking fee', 'monthly parking', or specific dollar amounts tied to parking and found none. Because there's no information about a recurring parking fee, the parking fee is unknown (null). If parking is rented separately in HOA docs, that data would clarify this field.

Listings consistently reference an assigned parking stall included with units and do not mention any waiting list or process to join a waitlist. Given the repeated explicit statements about assigned parking and absence of waitlist language, this is marked false with medium confidence.
No analysis available
I searched for 'key card', 'keycard', 'fob', 'card access', and similar terms and found none. The building has staffed security and cameras mentioned, but no evidence of card/fob access.
Building-level security is well-supported: historical MLS amenity checks show 13/17 listings with SECGUA, and at least 8 of the current public remarks explicitly mention security (e.g., "24-hour security (both cameras and on-site personnel)", "24 hour security", "patrolling security"). Evidence is consistent across multiple listings and agents, so include security_guard=true with high confidence.
Public remarks describe 24-hour security with on-site personnel and patrolling security. I searched for 'security patrol', 'patrolling security', and 'roving security' and found explicit mentions supporting active security patrols.

At least two of the current listings explicitly mention 'split AC' (agents' remarks state 'split AC' / 'split system' in the unit description). MLS inclusions also show ACSPL checked on 2 of 17 listings, matching the remarks. Evidence comes from agent remarks rather than owner verification, so confidence is high (0.85) but not definitive across the entire building.
No analysis available
Very strong evidence across MLS data: 31/31 historical + 17/17 current listings indicate CONCRE (concrete/reinforced concrete). No public remarks explicitly mention construction material, but the uniform MLS checkbox across all listings and prior high-confidence assessment support concrete construction.
Mixed evidence: 6 of 17 current listings have DOUWAL checked and prior historical data flagged double-wall (inconsistent across listings). Public remarks do not mention 'double wall' or similar; presence is plausible but unevenly recorded across agents, so included with moderate confidence.

Limited and weak evidence: 3 of 17 current MLS listings list SLAB, but there is no historical data or any public-remark mention of a concrete slab foundation. This suggests possible inconsistent checkbox usage by agents; feature included with low confidence pending verification from owner/manager or site visit.

Multiple listings explicitly indicate a 30-day minimum rental policy, which permits short-term rentals of 30 days or longer (i.e., transient rentals shorter than 30 days are not permitted). This supports that short-term rental activity (30+ day stays / vacation rental on a monthly basis) is allowed; marked true with high confidence.
The remarks make no reference to a hotel rental pool or hotel-managed rental program and instead describe typical condominium amenities (on-site manager, assigned parking, pool). Because there is no evidence of participation in a hotel rental pool and STRs are handled under a 30-day minimum, this is false with high confidence.
There is no wording in the public remarks that units are required to participate in any rental pool, and listings note owner occupancy/use and month-to-month tenancy possibilities. Since STR hotel-pool participation is not present, mandatory pool participation is false with high confidence.

I looked for any reference to leasehold, ground lease expiry years, or lease renewal language and found none in the public remarks. With no explicit year provided, the lease expiry is unknown (null). If you have a copy of the condominium documents or a site-visit note showing a lease expiry year, please provide it.
I searched all public remarks for phrases indicating VA approval or acceptance of VA loans and found none. Because there is no explicit mention in the marketing comments, the feature is marked false with medium confidence. If you have owner/manager verification that the building is VA-approved, that would override this assessment.
I searched the remarks for explicit statements about the HOA carrying full/walls-in insurance or comprehensive building coverage. No such statements appear, so there is no evidence the building is fully insured by the HOA; absence assumed false with medium/low confidence.
No analysis available
I searched all public remarks for terms indicating a passed fire/life safety evaluation (FLSE), such as 'FLSE passed', 'fire life safety evaluation passed', 'passed fire inspection', etc. Nothing was found, so there is no evidence the building has an FLSE; absence of mention leads to a default false with medium/low confidence.

Multiple listings (historical: 6/17 with OCEAN) and numerous current public remarks describe direct oceanfront/ocean views: quotes include 'the stunning Pacific Ocean', 'oceanfront studio', and 'direct oceanfront apartment'. Evidence is strong across many agent remarks and appears consistent (not just a single copy/paste), so the building offers ocean views.
Several listings (historical: 5/17 with MOUNTA) and multiple current remarks state mountain/valley views — e.g., 'panoramic views spanning from Makaha Valley to the Pacific Ocean' and 'Breathtaking Ocean and mountain views'. The repeated, explicit mentions across listings indicate the building offers mountain views.

Multiple listings (historical: 5/17 with COASTL) and several current remarks explicitly mention coastline/shoreline views — e.g., 'panoramic coastline views daily', 'lanai overlooking...sandy beach' and 'shoreline within feet of your lanai'. The consistency of these explicit statements across listings supports including coastline views.

A renovated unit is marketed with 'Views from your lanai are of ocean, sandy beach, mountains, sunrise and more,' directly confirming sunrise visibility from at least part of the building. Together with 2/15 MLS entries coded for SUNRIS, this supports that some units offer sunrise views that buyers may specifically seek out.
Public remarks repeatedly highlight sunset exposure, with multiple agents mentioning 'majestic sunsets', 'unobstructed sunset views', and 'beautiful sunsets.' The building is directly on Makaha Beach on Oahu’s west side, which is consistent with sunset-facing views, and MLS view data also includes SUNSET in several listings. This indicates that at least some units in the building enjoy sunset views.
No analysis available
I searched for 'fireworks', 'watch fireworks', 'Friday night fireworks', and similar phrases; there are no references indicating a fireworks view from the building or units.

Multiple listings describe the building as having an 'Onsite manager' or 'on-site manager,' indicating a manager based at the property. This is reinforced by MLS amenities data (RESMAN checked in 9/15 listings) and is consistent across different agents. There is no evidence suggesting this amenity has been removed or is incorrect.
