Regency Tower
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.
Regency Tower
Building Overview
Regency Tower in Downtown-Chinatown (built 1974) with concrete construction, pool and ocean/mountain views.
About Regency Tower
Regency Tower is located in the Downtown-Chinatown neighborhood and was built in 1974. According to available records, the building is concrete construction. MLS data does not include unit count or floor plate size, so buyers should verify building size and specific unit dimensions with the listing agent or management.
Based on MLS data, Regency Tower offers a pool, BBQ area, and on-site staff including a resident manager and security guard. Units feature window air conditioning and offer views that include ocean, mountain, Diamond Head, and sunsets. Short-term rentals and pets are not allowed per the available records.
Parking is available and noted as covered and assigned, with guest parking also provided. The management company is listed as unknown in the MLS. This summary is based on MLS-derived data; buyers should confirm all amenities, rules, and fees with the listing agent or managing entity prior to making decisions.

Remarks describe units as suitable for owner occupants, investors, and first-time buyers, and several listings mention tenant-occupied units, but none provide an owner-occupancy percentage or state that the building is majority or highly owner occupied. Owner occupancy remains unknown.
Remarks mention proximity to an elevator and one listing references avoiding elevator wait times, but none state a number such as "4 elevators," "four elevators," or "multiple elevators." The elevator count remains unknown and should not be inferred from the 42-story, 238-unit building context.

Seventeen of 20 listings include OTCOEX in the association fee inclusions. No public remarks explicitly say “common area electricity” or “building power included,” so the evidence is primarily MLS-based, but the consistency across listings strongly supports inclusion.

Only two of 20 listings identify HOTWAT as included, compared with 16 listings identifying WTRHTR. Public remarks repeatedly reference individual or tankless water heaters, including “main refrigerator and water heater were replaced in 2025” and “Rheem Tankless Electric Water Heater,” strongly supporting that hot water is not building-provided and included in the maintenance fee.

All 20 listings include SEWER in the MLS association-fee fields. A public remark directly confirms that the “Maintenance Fee includes water, sewer, and trash,” making the evidence overwhelming and building-wide.
All 20 listings identify WATER as included in the maintenance fee. The explicit remark that the “Maintenance Fee includes water, sewer, and trash” confirms the consistent MLS data across multiple listings.
BBQ facilities are repeatedly confirmed across many listings, including explicit phrases such as "BBQ area," "bbq/recreation area," and "BBQ/picnic area." The feature appears consistently across multiple agents and listing descriptions, supporting a shared building amenity rather than isolated copy-paste.

I found no public remarks describing any car wash or vehicle wash facility for Regency Tower. The current MLS signal is extremely weak at 1/20 listings and is not supported by any listing text, so the building should not be treated as having a car wash amenity based on the available evidence.

Meeting-room/conference-style space appears to be a genuine shared amenity at Regency Tower. The feature is referenced in numerous remarks with direct phrases like 'meeting room should you ever need one' and 'meeting/rec room,' which is strong evidence across multiple agents.
Multiple independent listings describe building-level shared outdoor spaces, including a renovated pool deck, outdoor dining patio, outdoor patio seating, recreation deck, and BBQ/picnic areas. The evidence is consistent across many remarks and aligns with the historically high-confidence designation and current MLS amenity data.

No listings explicitly mention a private yard, and 0/40+ remarks describe unit-specific yard space or yard access. References are consistently to shared/common outdoor areas such as a courtyard, BBQ/recreation area, pool deck, or outdoor patio seating, which are not private yards. This strongly suggests the current MLS amenity checkbox is inaccurate for this building.
No analysis available
A shared recreation area is supported by 8/20 current listings, with explicit phrases including 'recreation deck,' 'bbq/recreation area,' and 'meeting/rec room.' Although less frequently checked than BBQ or sauna, the repeated detailed descriptions and prior high confidence strongly support inclusion.
There is solid evidence that Regency Tower has a recreation room or rec-room-style shared space. Several listings use explicit language such as 'meeting/rec room,' which strongly supports the amenity even though it appears in only a subset of remarks and MLS checkboxes.
No analysis available
No analysis available
A sauna is repeatedly confirmed in current remarks, including "sauna," "upgraded sauna," and "dry sauna." The feature is described across numerous listings and aligns with the strong current MLS presence, indicating an established shared building amenity.
Several listings describe building amenities that include 'bike storage area', 'bike storage', and explicitly 'bicycle & other storage,' indicating dedicated common storage spaces in the building. Although the MLS checkbox for storage is rarely marked, repeated textual mentions across different listings provide strong evidence that the building offers storage rooms/lockers. This supports treating storage units/lockers as an available building amenity.
The remarks mention bike storage and proximity to surfing areas, but neither establishes a surfboard storage facility. Searches for surfboard, board storage, and surf storage terminology found no qualifying evidence.
No analysis available
There is no supporting evidence in the remarks for a trash chute system at Regency Tower. With 0/20 current MLS listings showing the feature and no explicit references like "trash chute" or "garbage chute," this feature should be treated as not present.

The pool is explicitly mentioned in well over 15 of 20 listings, with numerous descriptions across apparently independent listings referring to a swimming pool, full-length tiled pool, large pool, renovated pool deck, or newly renovated pool. This strongly confirms a shared building amenity rather than a copied checkbox alone, and is consistent with the current MLS amenity data.
No analysis available
A building pool is clearly documented and is consistent with the building context. No public-remarks evidence confirms that the pool is salt water.
In-unit laundry is overwhelmingly supported across the listings: well over 20 remarks explicitly mention washer/dryer appliances or designated in-unit laundry, with repeated confirmations from multiple listing descriptions. Key phrases include 'washer and dryer in unit,' 'in-unit stacked washer/dryer,' and 'stacking wash/dry'; although a few listings omit the feature or describe only room for a unit, the broad evidence and 19/20 current MLS inclusions strongly confirm it.
No analysis available
The listings primarily describe in-unit laundry and provide no evidence of a shared laundry facility requiring payment. No coin-operated, card-operated, or fee-based laundry terminology appears in the remarks.
The remarks repeatedly mention in-unit washers and dryers, but do not describe shared laundry facilities on every floor. Searches for phrases indicating laundry on each floor found no supporting evidence.
All 20 listings have MLS parking indicators, with no listings marked NONE. Numerous independent remarks confirm building parking through phrases such as 'two covered parking,' '1 assigned parking stall,' and 'covered parking stall,' making the evidence strong and consistent.
Nineteen of 20 listings contain the assigned-parking MLS indicator, and many remarks explicitly use 'assigned parking stall,' 'assigned parking space,' or 'two covered assigned parking spaces.' The repeated confirmations across multiple unit types and agents strongly support assigned parking at the building.
Covered parking is clearly present and repeatedly advertised. Multiple listings mention 'covered parking stalls,' 'covered, full sized parking stall,' and 'TWO COVERED parking,' confirming the feature across different agents and unit types. The historical MLS record also strongly supports this building-level amenity.
The remarks repeatedly describe parking as included with the unit, including an explicit statement that two covered stalls are included with the sale. Although the remarks do not use the exact term "deeded," the repeated inclusion of assigned stalls with listed units supports owned or deeded parking.
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for parking fees, monthly parking charges, additional parking costs, and parking rentals. The listings mention maintenance fees and parking included with units, but do not identify a building-wide or unit-specific parking fee.
Nineteen of 20 listings have the guest-parking MLS indicator, and guest or visitor parking is explicitly mentioned throughout the remarks. Repeated details such as '16 visitor parking stalls,' '10 guest parking stalls,' and 'ample guest parking' provide strong building-level confirmation.

I searched for parking waitlist language and related references to joining or waiting for a stall. The remarks instead consistently describe assigned, covered, street, and guest parking without indicating a waitlist system.
No analysis available
The remarks repeatedly confirm FOB-based secured entry and secured lobby access. This directly establishes a card/fob access security system.
Security service is strongly supported across the building: SECGUA is checked in all 20 of 20 current listings, and many remarks from multiple listings explicitly describe 24-hour patrols, on-site guards, video surveillance, or security personnel. The repeated detailed references across agents indicate a genuine building amenity rather than an isolated copied checkbox.
Security patrol is repeatedly and explicitly described across the listings. The remarks support an ongoing building patrol service, in addition to security guards and video surveillance.

Window AC is explicitly mentioned in at least 3 current listings, with detailed references to units in multiple rooms and a newly installed unit. Combined with ACWIUN appearing in 8 of 20 listings and the prior high-confidence determination, the evidence strongly supports that Regency Tower offers units with window AC.
Concrete construction is strongly supported by historical MLS data: 18 of 20 listings identify the building as concrete. The provided remarks do not mention construction materials, but they also contain no conflicting statements; the stable building-level MLS pattern supports retaining this feature.
Double-wall construction is not supported by the public remarks, and the MLS signal is very sparse at 2 of 20 listings. The pattern looks more like copy-paste checkbox noise than verified building construction.
No analysis available
Masonry/stucco is not supported by the public remarks and is present in only a small minority of current MLS records (2 of 20). The listing remarks repeatedly describe amenities, views, and unit upgrades, but never mention masonry or stucco construction. This looks more like inconsistent MLS data entry than a reliable building-level feature.
No analysis available
Concrete slab foundation is not supported by the remarks, and the MLS evidence is sparse at 4 of 20 listings. There is no sign of a recent change or firsthand verification in the public comments.

Above-ground construction is not corroborated by the listing remarks. With only 5 of 20 MLS records showing ABOGRO, this appears to be weak or inconsistent MLS data rather than a confirmed building feature.

I searched for short-term rental, STR, vacation rental, NUC, TVU, legal short-term rental, and minimum-rental-period language. The listings promote investment and long-term rental potential but do not explicitly permit short-term rentals, so STR allowance is treated as false.
The building is described as a conventional residential high-rise with a pool, sauna, security, resident manager, and convenience store. There is no evidence of hotel operations or participation in a hotel rental pool; because STR is not established, this must also be false.
The remarks contain no language requiring units to participate in a hotel rental program. Since no hotel pool or permitted STR program is identified, mandatory hotel-pool participation must be false.
No analysis available
No analysis available
The listings identify the property as fee simple, indicating no applicable land-lease expiry. I searched for lease expiry, leasehold, ground lease, land lease, and renewal years but found no specific 4-digit expiration year.
The remarks directly reference an assumable VA mortgage and eligibility for VA buyers, providing strong evidence that VA financing is supported. This is explicit financing evidence from the public remarks.
The explicit statement that the building is fully insured is strong direct evidence of full HOA building insurance. The hurricane-insurance reference provides additional supporting context.
No analysis available
The remarks repeatedly mention security, secured entry, patrols, building maintenance, insurance, and video surveillance. However, they do not state that the building passed a fire/life safety evaluation, is FLSE passed, fire-safety certified, life-safety compliant, or passed a fire inspection.
Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.

Ocean views are clearly supported across the building. At least 8-10 listings/remark versions mention them directly with phrases like "wrap around views of the ocean," "beautiful ocean & city views," and "partial ocean views." This appears to be a real building-level offering, not a one-off copy-paste error.
Mountain views are strongly established across the building, with 15/20 current MLS listings mentioning them and numerous remarks from different listings describing "mountain views," "Mauka" views, Manoa Valley, and panoramic mountain scenery. The repeated detailed references across multiple stacks and floors indicate a legitimate building offering rather than isolated copy-paste data.
Diamond Head views are well established in the building. Multiple listings describe direct or unobstructed Diamond Head/Leahi views, and the MLS aggregate also confirms this feature appears in several units.
City views are very strongly established, appearing in 18/20 current MLS listings and repeatedly supported by independent remarks describing "city views," the "Waikiki skyline," panoramic urban views, and city lights. The evidence is widespread across studios and larger units, confirming that the building offers city-view residences.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Golf course views are confirmed by multiple listing remarks, especially references to the Ala Wai Golf Course and its greens. While fewer units advertise it than city or mountain views, the repeated explicit mentions make it a legitimate building feature. The MLS data also supports it with several listings checked for golf course view.
No analysis available
Sunrise views are supported by several explicit mentions, especially one listing highlighting "unobstructed sunrise views." This appears to be a real but less common view option in the building.
Sunset views are supported by explicit remark language, most notably "the peaceful hues of the mountain and sunsets." The evidence is less frequent than mountain or city views, but it appears in more than one remark version and is consistent with the building's high-floor exposure. This should be treated as a real but less commonly advertised feature.
No evidence the building offers cemetery views: none of the provided listing remarks or the current MLS view_descriptions mention cemetery views (0/20). Listings consistently describe ocean, mountain, Diamond Head, valley and city views, but never a cemetery, so the feature is not present.
The remarks mention ocean, city, mountain, Diamond Head, golf course, sunrise, and sunset views. None state that fireworks can be viewed from a unit, lanai, or the building.

At least 15 of the provided listings explicitly mention a resident or on-site manager, including phrases such as "on-site Resident Manager," "Resident Manager ... located on site," and "on-site resident manager." The evidence is strong across many listings and agents, and it confirms the historical high-confidence conclusion rather than indicating a data change.
