Monte Vista
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 public remarks for owner-occupancy language (percentages or phrases like 'owner occupied', 'majority owner occupied') and found none. Per numeric-field rules, retain the existing value when remarks provide no explicit number; confidence is low because there is no confirming evidence in the remarks.
Remarks repeatedly mention elevator access (e.g., 'Elevators provide quick and easy access', 'close to the elevator') but none state a numeric count like '2 elevators' or 'four elevators'. Per numeric-field rules, keep the current value when no explicit number appears. Confidence is low because the count is not confirmed in public remarks.
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.

Strong evidence that cable is included: 16/20 MLS listings previously showed CABTV and multiple public remarks explicitly state "maintenance fee includes cable" or "basic cable." Mentions appear across several different agent remarks, indicating consistent building-level inclusion.
Evidence that maintenance covers common area expenses is strong: 13/20 MLS listings previously listed OTCOEX and multiple public remarks state the fee covers "common expenses," "building maintenance," or "upkeep of common areas," repeated across listings.
No analysis available
One listing explicitly notes that the monthly maintenance fee includes “all utilities (most electricity),” implying that electricity is substantially included in the HOA. While only 1/20 current MLS records check the electricity box and most agent remarks do not mention it, there is no opposing evidence that electricity is excluded. Given the direct statement and lack of contradiction, electricity is treated as included but with moderate confidence due to sparse mention and checkbox inconsistency.
No analysis available
Evidence that hot water is included is strong: 11/20 MLS listings flagged HOTWAT and multiple current remarks explicitly say "maintenance fee includes hot water." These explicit statements appear in several listings' remarks, indicating building-level coverage.
Internet inclusion is well supported: 14/20 MLS listings previously listed INTSER and multiple remarks state "internet included" or "maintenance fee covers internet," appearing across different listings and agents.
No analysis available
Sewer inclusion is strongly supported: 17/20 MLS listings previously had SEWER and several public remarks explicitly list "sewer" as covered by maintenance fees, repeated across multiple listing remarks.
Water inclusion is strongly supported: 17/20 MLS listings previously had WATER and multiple current remarks explicitly state "maintenance fee includes water" or "covers water & sewer," with consistent repetition across listings.
Strong evidence: numerous public remarks mention building BBQ facilities (phrases include 'BBQ', 'BBQ area', 'BBQ grilling area', and 'barbecue area'). MLS checkbox data also indicates ~16/20 listings include BBQ. Mentions appear across multiple agent listings and descriptions (not limited to a single listing), indicating a consistent building-level amenity.

One listing states '6th Floor Amenities include pool, BBQ and patio' and another mentions a '6th-floor recreation deck complete with a pool and BBQ grilling area', indicating a shared deck/patio amenity.

Multiple listings (about 5–6) explicitly reference a recreation deck/rec area or '6th-floor recreation deck', aligning with MLS checkbox data (5/20). Mentions appear across several agent remarks (not isolated), giving moderate confidence that the building offers a common recreation area.

I reviewed the public remarks for any mention of surfboard or board storage facilities. Despite repeated references to beach proximity and some storage (e.g., a small storage cabinet on the 11th floor), there is no explicit mention of surfboard storage.
No analysis available
MLS checkbox data strongly indicates a building trash-chute system (~16/20 listings checked), but public remarks across the listings do not mention a trash/garbage/refuse chute. The evidence is primarily implied from agent-entered MLS fields (possible copy/paste), so confidence is moderate pending owner/manager or site-visit verification.

Strong, consistent evidence that the building has a pool: over a dozen current public remarks (18+ listings) explicitly mention a pool or "swimming pool" and several specify a 6th-floor recreation deck with a pool. Historical MLS checkbox data also indicated pool in 19/20 listings, and while a few remarks note the pool may be under renovation, multiple agents and listings continue to list the pool as a building amenity.
No analysis available
I searched for words such as 'salt water pool', 'saltwater pool', 'salt pool', and 'saline pool'. The public remarks reference a pool and pool renovations but contain no indication it is a salt-water pool.
Strong evidence that the building offers in-unit laundry: roughly 18 of 20 recent listings include washer/dryer in the inclusions, and many public remarks explicitly state phrases like 'in-unit washer and dryer', 'washer/dryer in the unit', and 'stacked washer & dryer'. Mentions appear across multiple listings and agents (suggesting building-wide availability for some units) rather than isolated or singular copy-paste errors.
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for 'coin laundry', 'paid laundry', 'card operated', 'coin-op', and similar terms. The public remarks do not describe any paid community laundry; instead they emphasize in-unit washers/dryers.
I searched the public remarks for phrases like 'laundry on each floor', 'laundry room on every floor', and 'floor-by-floor laundry'. Multiple listings reference an in-unit washer/dryer, but there is no statement that community laundry exists on every floor.
No analysis available
Strong evidence that the building offers assigned parking: roughly a majority of current remarks (many listings) explicitly state 'assigned parking', 'assigned covered secure parking stall', or 'two deeded parking spots' (e.g., 'TWO deeded parking spots', 'assigned covered parking is close to the elevator'). Evidence is consistent across multiple agent remarks and aligns with historical MLS checkbox data, indicating the building provides assigned/reserved parking.
Strong, consistent evidence that the building offers covered parking: many listings mention 'gated garage', 'covered parking stall', 'garage covered parking', or 'one covered parking stall' (examples: 'gated garage', 'one assigned covered secure parking stall', '1 garage covered parking'). Multiple agents repeat these phrases across listings, matching the historical MLS data that showed covered parking widely available.
Multiple listings explicitly reference deeded/assigned parking (including statements like 'TWO deeded parking spots come with the unit' and repeated 'assigned covered parking stall'), supporting that parking is deeded.
No analysis available
I searched the public remarks for terms like 'parking fee', 'monthly parking', 'parking charge', and numeric amounts tied to parking and found no references. Therefore the monthly parking fee is unknown from these remarks.
No analysis available
Multiple listings (roughly 10–12 of the 20 public remarks) explicitly mention secured parking or secured building access—quotes include "secured building with fob access, a gated garage", "gated parking and keyed entrance to the building and the elevator", and "assigned covered secure parking stall." This repeated explicit language across different listings indicates the building provides secured entry to the parking.

I searched the remarks for 'parking waitlist', 'waiting list', 'join waitlist for parking' and related phrases but found no references. Absence of any mention suggests there is not a waitlist, but this is based on lack of evidence.
No analysis available
Multiple public remarks explicitly describe controlled electronic/fob/key access to the building and elevator. This direct language supports a high-confidence true for card/fob access security.
No analysis available
I searched the public remarks for explicit terms indicating a security patrol or roving patrol service. While the building is described as secured with on-site management and controlled access, there is no statement about a security patrol service.

High historical checkbox prevalence (17/20 listings include ACWIUN) plus multiple remarks explicitly mention window units — e.g., 'window AC and a step out lanai' and 'window AC' and 'new... air aitconditoners in 2021' — indicate the building offers window air conditioning in some units. Evidence is strong across several listings and aligns with MLS inclusion data, though some agent copy/paste is possible; combined data supports including window_ac=true.
Strong historical evidence: 19 of 20 MLS records listed 'CONCRE' for construction materials. Current public remarks consistently describe the property as a high-rise/24-story building (quotes: "Monte Vista is a 24-story building..." and "high rise"), which aligns with reinforced concrete construction for Waikiki high-rises. No current remarks contradict concrete construction and no agent corrections were found, so inclusion is supported across multiple listings.

4 out of 20 current MLS listings include the 'ABOGRO' construction_materials code suggesting above-ground construction, but none of the public remarks across listings mention 'above ground' construction or similar phrasing. The signal is weak and inconsistent across agents, so inclusion is cautious—listed by some agents (4/20) but not corroborated in remarks and may reflect checkbox copy/paste rather than an explicit building description.

Multiple listings specify a 30-day minimum rental policy (e.g., 'allowing 30-day minimum rental'), and per the rule provided, a 30-day minimum indicates STRs are not permitted. Therefore str_allowed is false with high confidence.
There are no references to a hotel rental pool or hotel-managed program in the public remarks, and short-term rentals are not allowed; therefore hotel pool participation is false.
No remark indicates a mandatory hotel rental pool or required participation, and STRs are not allowed; therefore mandatory pool participation is false.

The public remarks explicitly identify the leasehold expiry year as 2042 ('LEASEHOLD TO 2042'), so the lease expiry year is extracted as 2042 with high confidence.
Multiple listings explicitly identify the building/unit as VA-approved (e.g., 'VA-Approved and VA Assumable Rate at 2.625%'), so VA financing acceptance is confirmed with high confidence.
Multiple public remarks explicitly state the building is fully insured for hurricanes (e.g., 'The building is fully covered for Hurricane Insurance.' and '100% HURRICANE INSURED.'). This strongly indicates HOA-level (walls-in) coverage, so the boolean is set true with high confidence.
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for phrases such as 'fire life safety evaluation passed', 'FLSE passed', 'fire safety certified', and 'passed fire inspection' and found no references. Because there is no mention and no existing value, the field is set to false with medium confidence (absence of mention suggests it was not publicly stated).

Strong evidence: at least 15 listings explicitly mention mountain/Ko'olau/mauka views (phrases like "majestic mountains", "Ko'olau Mountain Range", "mountain views"). Mentions appear across multiple agent remarks and listing variations, indicating consistent building-level mountain views rather than a single copy-paste error.
Multiple agent remarks explicitly mention Diamond Head views (quotes include "Diamond Head", "panoramic Diamond Head", "breathtaking views of Diamond Head"). The evidence is repeated across listings and appears across different units/ads, so Diamond Head views are a building-level offering.
Several listings mention city views or city lights (e.g., "city lights sparkle", "inspiring city landscape", "city views"), indicating that city-view units exist in the building. The mentions are explicit but less numerous than mountain/marina/golf references, so confidence is moderate-high.
No analysis available
No evidence: 0 listings mention garden/courtyard/landscaped views and current MLS view_descriptions show no GARDEN entries. Given the absence of any remarks or checklist indications, garden view is not supported for the building.
Numerous listings explicitly state golf course views (e.g., "Ala Wai golf course", "golf course views", "unobstructed views of the Ala Wai Golf Course") from the living room, lanai, and bedrooms. The evidence is consistent across multiple agent remarks, supporting inclusion as a building-level feature.
Strong evidence: many listings (≈15+) explicitly reference the Ala Wai Canal/Ala Wai and 'canal views' or 'Ala Wai Canal' (e.g., "views of the Ala Wai Canal", "Ala Wai Canal and Diamond Head"). The repeated references from multiple listings indicate the building offers canal/marina-type views.
Moderate evidence: at least a few listings explicitly reference sunrise/eastern exposure (quotes include "watch the sun rise over the mountains" and "east-facing orientation"). The mentions appear in multiple agent remarks, suggesting some units/building exposures offer sunrise views, but references are less numerous than mountain/canal mentions.

I searched for explicit language like 'fireworks view', 'watch fireworks from lanai', and 'see fireworks from unit'. While many listings describe scenic views, none state that fireworks can be viewed from the units or building.

High-confidence evidence that Monte Vista has a resident/on-site manager: at least 8+ separate public remarks explicitly mention phrases like 'on-site manager', 'site manager', or 'resident manager', and 12–13 of 20 MLS listings historically had the RESMAN amenity checked. Mentions appear across different listings and agents (e.g., 'an on-site manager', 'Site Manager', 'attentive resident manager'), supporting that this is a real, building-level feature rather than a single-agent data entry mistake.
