Punahou Gardens Apartments
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 mention individual units being tenant-occupied, rental opportunities, investors, and one listing identifying the agent as an owner/licensee, but none establishes the building-wide owner-occupancy rate. Therefore, the percentage remains unknown.
The remarks provide explicit elevator-count evidence, including the phrase "secure high-rise with two elevators." This overrides the current value of 1.
Calculated from the lowest association fee observed across all non-penthouse unit listings for this building.

At least 12 of 20 listings include OTCOEX, with remarks citing "common area maintenance," "common areas," or "common expenses" included in the fee. The repeated building-level references to pool, laundry, and other shared-area upkeep support inclusion, although the remarks are less specific about common-area electricity than the MLS data.
No analysis available
Electricity is included in 19 of 20 current MLS records. Multiple remarks repeat phrases such as "includes electricity," "maintenance fees cover utilities, including electricity," and "essential utilities included," providing strong building-level confirmation across listings.
Gas is included in 19 of 20 current MLS records. Multiple listings state that fees include "gas" or "gas for stove," consistently confirming the feature across the building rather than in a single isolated listing.
Hot water appears in 16 of 20 current MLS inclusion records. Remarks repeatedly state "hot water included" or that maintenance fees include hot water, and the complete absence of WTRHTR further supports building-supplied hot water.

No analysis available
Sewer is included in 19 of 20 current MLS records. Multiple agents use phrases such as "sewer included," "electricity, gas, water, and sewer," and "maintenance fee covers essential utilities," showing strong repeated building-level evidence.
Water is included in 19 of 20 current MLS records, consistent with the previously High-confidence building conclusion. Numerous remarks explicitly say fees include "water" or list water among covered utilities, providing strong confirmation across many listings.

I searched for explicit surfboard and board-storage amenities. None of the public remarks identify such a facility.
No analysis available
Trash chute is supported by 11/20 current MLS amenity records and at least 2 explicit public remarks. Key phrases include “community laundry, trash chute” and “on-site laundry, trash chute,” indicating the feature is a building amenity rather than a unit-specific claim.

The pool is explicitly mentioned in numerous independent listing remarks, well over 15 of the 20 listings, using consistent phrases such as “saltwater pool,” “community pool,” and “swimming pool.” This strongly corroborates the historical high-confidence conclusion and indicates a shared building amenity rather than isolated copy-paste checkbox data.
No analysis available
The saltwater pool is directly and repeatedly confirmed across the public remarks. This is consistent with the building's stated pool amenity.
No analysis available
Community laundry is overwhelmingly supported across the listings: at least 18 of 20 current listings include the MLS amenity, and numerous remarks explicitly mention "community laundry" or equivalent shared-facility wording. The repeated references across varied listing descriptions and the previously high-confidence history strongly indicate this is a genuine building-wide amenity, not merely copied checkbox data.
I searched for terms including coin laundry, paid laundry, laundry fee, card-operated, quarters, and coin-op. None were found, so paid operation is not confirmed.
I searched for wording such as "laundry on each floor," "laundry room on every floor," and "floor-by-floor laundry." The listings only confirm shared/community laundry facilities, so every-floor availability is not established.
More than 20 listings explicitly mention parking, including phrases such as “parking may be rented monthly through the management office,” “parking is available on a waitlist basis,” and “parking can be rented for $80/month.” The repeated details across many listings and agents strongly support building-level parking availability, despite most MLS records showing NONE for assigned/included parking.

The listings consistently indicate that parking is not owned with or deeded to the unit. Parking is instead rented or obtained through the association or management via availability or a waitlist.
No analysis available
The monthly parking charge is consistently reported as $80. Some remarks say availability must be confirmed with management, but no conflicting parking fee was found.

The listings repeatedly describe parking as waitlist-based or subject to availability through building management. This confirms that the building has a parking waitlist system.
No analysis available
I searched for explicit card- or fob-access wording. Although the building is described as secure, the remarks do not identify a card-based security system.
No analysis available
I searched for references to patrol officers, roving security, and patrol services. The listings mention secured entry, cameras, and an onsite resident manager, but no patrol service.

No public remarks explicitly mention concrete construction. However, CONCRE appears in 18 of 20 current MLS listings, a strong and broadly consistent building-level signal rather than an isolated checkbox.
Double wall construction is not supported by the remarks and only appears in 4 of 20 current MLS records. That pattern is weak and could reflect inconsistent agent input rather than a verified building characteristic. Without explicit mention of double-wall construction in the remarks, confidence remains low.
None of the provided remarks mention hollow tile construction. HOLTIL appears in only 1 of 20 listings, suggesting an isolated or potentially erroneous MLS entry rather than a feature confirmed across multiple agents.

No public remarks mention above-ground construction. ABOGRO is checked in just 5 of 20 listings, without corroboration across the remarks, so this appears too inconsistent to treat as a validated building feature.

The remarks describe units as rentals, investments, or suitable for renting, but do not establish short-term rental rights. No explicit STR terminology or permission was found, so this is set to false based on the absence of evidence.
The building's pool references are to a community or saltwater swimming pool, not a hotel rental pool. Because STR permission is not established, the hotel rental pool feature is false.
The remarks contain no evidence that units must participate in a hotel rental program. Since STR permission and hotel-pool participation are not established, mandatory participation is false.

Remarks were searched for leasehold, ground lease, lease expiry, renewal, and related terminology. No specific land-lease expiration year was identified, and the Fee Simple description suggests the property is not leasehold.
Public remarks directly confirm that the building is VA approved, indicating VA financing is accepted. No contradictory remarks were found.
The remarks were searched for fully insured, full insurance, fully covered insurance, comprehensive building insurance, and walls-in coverage. The maintenance-fee descriptions discuss utilities and common areas but do not confirm building insurance coverage.
No analysis available
The remarks were searched for FLSE passage, fire/life-safety evaluation, fire-safety certification, passed fire inspection, and life-safety compliance. None of those terms or equivalent statements were found.

Mountain views are explicitly mentioned in 8 of 20 current listings, including "serene mountain views," "nice Mountain Views," and repeated references to "City and Mountain views." The evidence is consistent with the previously high-confidence building record and appears across multiple listings and agents, not merely a single checkbox.
Diamond Head view is mentioned explicitly, though only in a limited number of remarks. The strongest evidence is the direct phrase "DIAMOND HEADVIEW," which is enough to support the feature for the building even if it appears in only a few listings. This looks more like a true unit/building view offering than a widespread copy-paste pattern.
City views are identified in 14 of 20 current listings, with phrases such as "beautiful city and mountain views," "views of leafy treetops and city buildings," and "beautiful city and mountain views." This is strong, repeated evidence across many listings and confirms the previously high-confidence feature.

I found no remark-based support for sunrise views in the provided listings. None of the public descriptions mention sunrise, morning sun, or eastern exposure, and the visible view language focuses instead on mountain, city, and Diamond Head views. Given the weak support and likely MLS inconsistency, sunrise is best treated as not verified.

I searched for explicit unit-level fireworks-viewing language, including "fireworks view," watching fireworks from a lanai, and seeing fireworks from a unit. No qualifying statements were found.

At least 15 of 20 listings have the RESMAN amenity, and numerous independent remarks explicitly mention an "onsite manager," "resident manager," or "Res Mgr." The repeated references across many listings and agents strongly support that the building has a resident manager on-site, rather than this being an isolated copied checkbox.
