I searched for explicit percentages like '80% owner occupied' or qualitative building-level statements and found none. There are unit-level mentions of owner-occupancy, but no building-wide percentage or statement, so owner_occupancy is unknown (null) with low confidence.
Multiple public remarks explicitly reference two elevator banks and elevator modernization. Because a numeric count is stated in the remarks, we use the stated value of 2 with high confidence.
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.
While many listings note "central A/C" as an in-unit feature (e.g., "central A/C" and "Use the central A/C for warmer days."), none of the public remarks state that central air is covered by the maintenance fee. Historical ACCEN checkbox was medium prevalence but agent remarks do not support fee inclusion, so fee inclusion for central AC is omitted.
Strong evidence: 14 of 20 current MLS listings list CABTV in association_fee_includes and multiple public remarks explicitly state the maintenance fee includes cable ('maintenance fee includes cable with premium channels', 'Maintenance fee includes basic cable'). Evidence appears across several agent remarks rather than a single copy/paste, supporting inclusion.
Moderately strong evidence: OTCOEX appears in 15 of 20 current listings and prior data showed consistent inclusion. While public remarks do not often use the exact phrase 'common area electricity', the strong and consistent MLS checkbox usage plus multiple agents describing building-managed amenities supports that common area electric is included in the maintenance fee.

Good evidence: HOTWAT appears on 14 of 20 current MLS listings and many remarks reference completed building-wide repiping/plumbing retrofits. Although remarks do not always state 'hot water included' verbatim, the MLS coding plus plumbing work strongly indicate hot water is covered by the maintenance fee.
Direct evidence: several agent remarks explicitly state internet is included in the maintenance fee (e.g., 'maintenance fee offers exceptional value by including cable with premium channels and internet' and 'Maintenance Fee includes basic cable and internet fee of $53.15'). Despite fewer MLS checkboxes, explicit remarks across listings justify marking internet as included.
No analysis available
High confidence: 19 of 20 current MLS listings list SEWER in association_fee_includes and numerous remarks reference building-wide plumbing replacement/repiping. The consistency across MLS data and agent remarks strongly supports that sewer is included in the maintenance fee.
High confidence: 19 of 20 current MLS listings include WATER in association_fee_includes and multiple public remarks reference plumbing retrofits and building-maintained systems. The volume and consistency of MLS and remark evidence indicate water is included in the maintenance fee.
Strong, building-level evidence: MLS indicates 20/20 listings include BBQ and numerous remarks state phrases like 'BBQ areas', 'new grills', and 'multiple BBQ areas' across multiple agent listings, indicating the building offers shared BBQ/grilling facilities.

Consistent evidence: MLS indicates car-wash amenity on many listings and public remarks repeatedly mention 'car wash station on each parking level', 'car wash stations', and 'carwash station', confirming building-level car wash facilities.
Clubhouse/party room exists and is repeatedly mentioned. Multiple remarks reference a 'clubhouse', 'party room with full kitchen & bathrooms' and meeting/party facilities, showing consistent though less ubiquitous documentation than core outdoor amenities.

Moderately strong evidence: 11/20 MLS listings list a meeting/party room and multiple remarks mention 'meeting room', 'party room', or 'clubhouse' and 'large recreation/meeting room', supporting inclusion as a building amenity.
High-confidence evidence: historical MLS checkboxes indicated patios/decks in 18/20 listings, and virtually all current public remarks explicitly mention lanais/covered lanais (phrases include “large, private lanai,” “covered lanai,” and “extra-deep lanais”) as well as multiple outdoor/BBQ areas and a recreation deck. The consistency of these phrases across many different listings/agents indicates this is a genuine building feature rather than an isolated copy-paste error.

Putting green is mentioned in a minority of listings (MLS: ~4/20). Multiple remarks explicitly note a 'putting green' among the building amenities, indicating the feature exists but is less commonly cited than pools or courts.
Well-supported: 17/20 MLS listings include recreation-area amenity and many remarks reference 'recreation deck/room', 'amenity deck', and 'recreation areas' (e.g., 'recreation deck was elevated', 'remodeled recreation deck'), indicating substantial shared recreation spaces.
Several independent listings mention indoor common rooms, including 'recreation room', 'recreation rooms', 'meeting room', 'party room with full kitchen', 'club house', and a named pavilion. These repeated descriptions across different agents show the building has at least one shared recreation/party/meeting room even if not always checked in the MLS.

At least one listing explicitly lists 'secured bike and surfboard storage' as an amenity, confirming dedicated surfboard storage is available on the property.
Clear building-level amenity: MLS shows 20/20 listings have tennis court and public remarks repeatedly reference 'tennis courts', 'tennis/pickleball courts', and resurfacing/repairs, confirming shared tennis facilities are present.
High historical consistency: MLS indicates 20/20 listings have trash chute and though the aggregated remarks rarely quote 'trash chute' explicitly, the unanimous MLS checkbox presence and pervasive amenity descriptions support that the building provides a centralized trash/garbage chute system.

Strong support: 15/20 MLS listings list whirlpool/hot tub and remarks include frequent phrases like 'jacuzzi', 'large hot tub', 'spa/hot tub', and 'heated saltwater whirlpool/jacuzzi', indicating a shared whirlpool/hot tub amenity.
Strong, consistent evidence across listings: 20/20 MLS listings show the pool amenity and multiple remark lines mention pools. Remarks include phrases like “amazing swimming pool,” “saltwater infinity pool,” “new swimming pool & jacuzzi,” and references to kiddie pool and spa/hot tub, indicating the building offers a common swimming pool amenity across multiple agents/listings.
No analysis available
Public remarks repeatedly describe the building's pool as salt water (e.g., 'saltwater infinity edge pool', 'salt water pool', 'saltwater swimming pool'), confirming a saltwater pool amenity.
Strong, building-wide evidence that some units have in-unit laundry: 19 of 20 recent listings (per MLS summary) and the current public remarks repeatedly state phrases like "in unit washer/dryer", "full-sized washer/dryer", and "newer stackable laundry inside closet." Evidence is consistent across multiple agent remarks and aligns with the prior High-confidence MLS data, supporting inclusion of laundry_in_unit = true.
No analysis available
I searched the public remarks for references to paid community laundry (coin-operated machines, card readers, quarters, 'coin laundry') and found no such references. Listings consistently note in-unit washers/dryers instead of community paid laundry.
I searched for phrases like 'laundry on each floor', 'laundry room on every floor', and 'floor-by-floor laundry' and found none. Multiple listings explicitly reference in-unit washer/dryer, indicating residents typically use in-unit laundry rather than a floor-by-floor community laundry.
No analysis available
Strong, consistent evidence across listings: 18 of 20 current MLS records include ASSIGN and many remarks state phrases like 'assigned covered parking', 'one Deeded Parking Stall' and 'two assigned covered parking stalls, stall #160'. Evidence appears across multiple agents and unit ads, not likely copy-paste errors.
Very strong corroboration: 19 of 20 MLS listings indicate covered parking and numerous remarks include explicit phrases such as 'covered parking stall', 'two covered side-by-side parking stalls', '1-covered parking stall' and 'large covered parking'. The coverage is consistent across many listings and agents.
Many listings explicitly describe assigned/deeded covered parking stalls (including direct 'Deeded Parking Stall' and 'one Deeded Parking Stall' references), supporting that parking is deeded with units.
No analysis available
Searched for phrases like 'parking fee', 'monthly parking', 'additional parking cost', and 'parking rental'. No evidence of a recurring parking fee was found in the remarks.
Strong evidence that guest parking is available: 15 of 20 MLS entries note guest parking and many remarks give counts or describe it as 'ample' or 'tons of guest parking' (e.g., '27 guest parking stalls', '28 guest parking stalls'), showing consistency across several listings.
Good evidence that parking has secured entry: 14 of 20 MLS listings include SECENT and several remarks explicitly describe gated or FOB-controlled access ('each floor has it's own secured entry gate', 'controlled FOB-access', 'secured parking'), indicating the feature is present building-wide and reported by multiple agents.

Searched for 'parking waitlist', 'waiting list', and similar terms. No evidence of a formal waitlist system; descriptions focus on assigned stalls and abundant guest parking.
No analysis available
Listings explicitly mention controlled FOB/keycard access to common areas and secured building access, confirming card/fob access is present.
Strong, consistent evidence that the building provides on-site security: public remarks in numerous listings explicitly state '24 hour security', '24/7 security', 'security personnel', 'security guards', and 'video surveillance'. Historical MLS checkbox data also indicated SECGUA in 15 of 20 listings; multiple agents' remarks independently mention 24-hour security and resident manager, indicating the feature is real and widely advertised rather than an isolated copy/paste.
Numerous listings state 24-hour security, security personnel/guards, and an on-site resident manager, indicating an active security presence/patrol service at the property.
No analysis available
High-confidence evidence the building has central air: MLS checkbox history shows 17/20 units flagged (ACCEN/CENAC) and 19/20 with ACCEN in inclusions. Multiple listing remarks explicitly state phrases like "central air conditioning", "central AC", and "central A/C" (appearing in many agent descriptions), and the consistency across different listings/agents suggests this is a building-wide feature rather than isolated copy-paste error.

All 20 current MLS records list construction_materials='CONCRE' (reinforced concrete), and historical data previously flagged the building as concrete with High confidence. Although the public remarks do not frequently use the word 'concrete' explicitly, the unanimous MLS checkbox across multiple listings and prior high-confidence records provide strong, consistent evidence that the building is concrete-constructed.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Moderate evidence for masonry & stucco: 7/20 current MLS entries include MASSTU and historical records previously flagged masonry & stucco finishes. Public remarks across all listings do not explicitly state 'masonry' or 'stucco', so the evidence comes mainly from MLS checkbox data (some potential for copy/paste), warranting moderate confidence.
No analysis available
Weak evidence for concrete slab foundation: 5/20 current MLS listings include SLAB and historical notes suggested a slab/podium foundation previously (Low confidence). Public remarks across listings do not mention 'concrete slab' or similar terms, so inclusion is based on limited MLS checkbox data and carries low confidence.

Searched for 'short-term rental', 'STR', 'vacation rental', 'NUC', 'TVU', and '30-day minimum'. Found no language permitting STRs; absence of STR language leads to a medium-confidence false.
Searched for 'hotel rental pool', 'hotel rental program', and management-by-hotel references. No evidence found; because STRs are not indicated, hotel-pool participation is false.
Searched for 'mandatory hotel pool', 'required to participate', and opt-out language. No evidence of a mandatory rental pool; since STRs are not indicated, mandatory pool is false.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Searched for terms like 'lease expires', 'land lease to', and renewal years. Found no lease expiry year; one listing explicitly calls the unit 'fee simple,' so leasehold expiry is not applicable.
Multiple listings explicitly reference VA: one mentions a VA loan assumption and another states 'VA approved building,' indicating the building is VA loan approved.
I searched all remarks for terms indicating that the HOA provides full (walls-in) insurance coverage and found none. Absence of explicit phrasing means we cannot assert the building is fully insured by the HOA; set false with low-to-medium confidence.
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for phrases like 'FLSE passed', 'fire life safety evaluation passed', or 'passed fire inspection' and found only references to updated/new fire alarm systems and notifications. These show work on fire/life safety systems but do not explicitly state that a formal FLSE was passed, so the field is set to false with low-to-medium confidence.
Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.

Building-level ocean views are repeatedly advertised across listings. CURRENT MLS shows 3/20 view_descriptions with OCEAN, and numerous public remarks directly state “ocean,” “Pacific Ocean,” or “peek-a-boo ocean view,” indicating several units offer ocean-facing exposures. Evidence is strong across multiple agent remarks and consistent with prior high confidence.
Multiple listings/remarks consistently advertise mountain (mauka/Punchbowl) views: examples include "mountain views," "Punchbowl," and "mauka-to-makai views." These phrases appear repeatedly throughout the public remarks across many units, indicating several units in the building offer mountain views and confirming strong, building-level evidence.
Diamond Head is repeatedly cited across the public remarks—phrases include "Diamond Head views," "Diamond Head–facing," and "unobstructed views of Diamond Head." Many separate listings call out Diamond Head as a selling feature, demonstrating strong, building-level availability of Diamond Head view units.
Numerous remarks reference city or skyline views (e.g., "city lights," "Honolulu Skyline," "city skyline"), appearing in multiple listings and confirming that the building offers units with city views.

Several listings explicitly note eastern or sunrise exposure (phrases such as "sunrise side," "east side of Honolulu," and references to morning sun/lanai for morning coffee). While not as ubiquitous as mountain or Diamond Head mentions, these multiple references indicate that some units in the building offer sunrise/eastern views.
One listing describes a Diamond Head–facing unit whose lanai views are “highlighted by sunsets and frequent rainbows,” and another advertises “Enjoy spectacular sunsets, privacy from the extra large balcony, and unobstructed panoramic views of Punchbowl with a partial ocean view.” A separate studio notes enjoying “Friday night fireworks and ocean views,” which typically correlate with the sunset/Waikiki side. These repeated references show that certain units in the building do provide sunset views.
No listings or public remarks reference cemetery views (0 mentions in the provided dataset and 0/20 current MLS entries flagged CEMETA). There is no evidence across agent remarks to suggest the building offers cemetery views.
Multiple listings explicitly state residents can view Friday night fireworks from the lanai/units. This is direct language indicating the building/units offer a fireworks view from the premises.
No analysis available
High-confidence evidence: 18/20 recent MLS listings include the RESMAN amenity and numerous public remarks explicitly state 'resident manager' or 'Resident manager on property'. Phrases quoted from listings include 'a resident manager', 'Resident manager', and 'resident mgr on site', showing consistent confirmation across multiple agent listings rather than a single outlier.
