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.

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.

I searched for numeric owner-occupancy information and descriptive phrases such as 'highly owner occupied' or 'majority owner occupied,' but found none. Some remarks reference owner-occupant comfort or the building being a good fit for primary residence, but that does not provide an occupancy percentage. Because there is no direct evidence, the value remains unknown.
I searched the public remarks for any explicit elevator count or wording indicating multiple elevators, but found none. The remarks only mention being close to the elevator in one unit description, which does not establish how many elevators the building has. Since this is a numeric field and there is no direct evidence, the value remains unknown.

Common area electricity appears to be included in the maintenance fee at Regency Tower. The MLS pattern is strong with 17/20 listings checking OTCOEX, and there are no public remarks that suggest otherwise. This looks like a stable building-level inclusion rather than copy-paste noise.

Hot water is not supported as a maintenance-fee inclusion at Regency Tower. Only 2/20 listings check HOTWAT, while 15/20 list WTRHTR, and several remarks mention in-unit water heaters or replacements. The evidence strongly points to unit-level hot water systems, not building-supplied hot water.

Sewer is clearly included in the maintenance fee at Regency Tower. All 20/20 MLS listings check SEWER, and the public remarks directly reinforce it with phrases like “Maintenance Fee includes water, sewer, and trash.” This is high-confidence building-level evidence.
Water is confirmed as a building-level maintenance-fee inclusion at Regency Tower. All 20/20 listings check WATER, and multiple remarks explicitly state that the maintenance fee includes water. The evidence is very strong and consistent across listings.
BBQ/grilling facilities appear to be a consistent building-wide amenity at Regency Tower. Across the provided remarks, many listings mention a "BBQ area," "bbq/recreation area," "bbq and outdoor patio seating," or "BBQ/picnic area," indicating strong multi-agent confirmation rather than a one-off copy-paste error.

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.
Strong building-level evidence for patio/deck amenities. Multiple listings mention shared outdoor spaces such as a "nicely renovated pool deck," "outdoor dining patio," "outdoor patio seating," and "recreation deck," indicating this is not a one-off unit feature. The remarks are consistent across many agents and align with the prior MLS amenity data, so confidence is very high.

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/recreation deck is well supported at Regency Tower. Multiple listings mention 'recreation deck,' 'bbq/recreation area,' and outdoor common spaces, indicating this is a real building amenity rather than agent copy noise.
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.

Sauna is a confirmed shared amenity at Regency Tower. It appears repeatedly in the current remarks in multiple listings, including explicit references to "sauna," "upgraded sauna," and "dry sauna," making the evidence strong and consistent across agents.
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.
I searched for surfboard-specific storage terms such as surfboard storage, board storage, or surf storage. The remarks mention bike storage and other general storage, but nothing indicating surfboard storage facilities.
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 building clearly has a shared swimming pool. Pool amenities are mentioned in many current remarks across numerous listings, with wording such as "swimming pool," "large pool," "renovated pool deck," and "full-length tile Pool." The evidence is strong and consistent across multiple agents, matching the current MLS amenities data.
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for saltwater-pool language such as "salt water pool" or "salt pool." The building pool is mentioned many times, but it is described only as a pool or renovated pool deck, not as salt water.
In-unit laundry is strongly confirmed for Regency Tower. The current remarks mention it in well over 20 listings, using explicit phrases such as 'washer/dryer in the unit,' 'in-unit laundry,' 'stacked washer/dryer,' and 'new washer and dryer in unit.' This appears consistent across multiple agents and listings, not just a single copy-paste mention.
No analysis available
I looked for public remarks indicating that shared laundry requires payment, such as coin laundry, coin-op, card-operated machines, or laundry fees. The remarks only discuss in-unit laundry, so there is no evidence of paid community laundry.
I searched the public remarks for wording like "laundry on each floor," "community laundry on every floor," or similar shared-laundry descriptions. The listings repeatedly mention in-unit washer/dryer, but I found no evidence of common laundry facilities serving every floor.
Parking is strongly confirmed across the building. All 20 current listings show a parking feature, and remarks consistently mention phrases like "1 assigned parking stall," "covered parking stall," "2 covered parking spaces," and "parking on the second floor." This looks like stable building-level data rather than copy-paste error.
Assigned parking is very strongly supported. Across the remarks, many listings explicitly mention 'assigned parking stall,' 'assigned covered parking stalls,' 'designated guest/parking,' or similar reserved spaces, and the MLS history is nearly unanimous (19/20). This looks like consistent building-level parking support rather than a one-off agent copy.
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.
I looked for explicit deeded, owned, or included-in-deed parking language, but the remarks only describe assigned or covered stalls. That suggests parking is available with the unit, but not clearly deeded based on the public remarks.
No analysis available
I searched for phrases like parking fee, monthly parking charge, rental stall cost, or additional parking cost. The remarks describe parking as assigned or included, but do not mention any separate parking fee.
Guest parking is clearly and repeatedly advertised. The remarks reference 'guest parking,' 'visitor parking,' 'ample guest parking,' and even specific counts like '10 guest parking stalls' and '16 visitor parking stalls,' showing strong building-level availability. The MLS history is nearly unanimous, so this is high-confidence.

I looked for parking waitlist or waiting list language, including any need to join a list for parking. The listings do not mention a waitlist system, so there is no evidence of one in the public remarks.
No analysis available
The public remarks repeatedly describe FOB entry, secured lobby access, and secured entry. That is strong evidence of card/fob-based access security for the building.
Security guard service is strongly supported for Regency Tower. Across the current listings, 20/20 MLS records include the security amenity, and dozens of public remarks reinforce it with phrases like "24-hour security," "security patrol," "security guard on site," and "round-the-clock onsite security."
Multiple remarks directly reference security patrol service, including "24-hour security patrol" and "patrol services." This is clear public-remarks evidence that the building has security patrol.

Window AC is confirmed for this building. Multiple listings explicitly mention it, including phrases like "window a/c units in both bedrooms and living area," "NEW window AC unit," and "your very own window air conditioner." The evidence is consistent across remarks and aligns with the historical MLS data, suggesting this is a real building/unit-level feature rather than a copy-paste error.
Concrete construction appears to be a stable building-level attribute for Regency Tower. Historical MLS data is highly consistent, with 18 of 20 listings marked CONCRE, and none of the current remarks suggest a different construction type. The evidence looks like a building-level fact rather than agent copy-paste noise.
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.

No analysis available
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.

No analysis available
I searched for short-term rental indicators such as STR allowed, NUC, TVU, vacation rental wording, hotel-style rental language, or minimum-rent rules. The remarks only discuss regular ownership and long-term rental appeal, with no public evidence that STR is allowed.
I looked for hotel rental pool references and hotel-managed rental program language. None appear in the remarks, and because STR is not supported by the public remarks, this must be false.
I searched for wording like required participation, must join the rental program, cannot opt out, or mandatory hotel pool. There were no such mentions, and since STR is not supported in the remarks, this is false.

No analysis available
I searched for terms like lease expires, ground lease ends, leasehold, renewed through, and any 4-digit expiry year. Nothing in the public remarks indicates the land tenure is leasehold or gives a lease expiration date, so the expiry year remains unknown.
The public remarks directly reference VA financing and VA eligibility, which is strong evidence that VA loans are accepted or the building is VA-approved. No conflicting language was found in the listings.
The remarks directly confirm that the building is fully insured, which strongly supports walls-in/full HOA insurance coverage. This is explicit and recent enough to override any uncertainty. Confidence is very high because the wording is direct.
No analysis available
I looked for direct language about fire/life safety evaluation, FLSE status, fire inspection results, or similar compliance statements. None of the public remarks mention this feature. With no evidence in the remarks, I cannot confirm a pass and treat it as unverified/absent from the provided text.
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 confirmed for this building. Roughly 16+ listings reference them directly, often in combination with city/ocean views, and multiple agents use explicit phrasing such as "mountain views," "mauka," and "Manoa Valley views." The evidence is consistent across listings and does not look like a one-off copy-paste error.
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 confirmed for this building. About 18+ listings reference city views directly, frequently alongside mountain and ocean views, using language like "city vistas," "city lights," and "Downtown Honolulu." The consistency across multiple listings and agents suggests this is a real building-level feature, not MLS copy-paste noise.

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.
I searched for direct references to fireworks views from within the building, including from lanais or unit windows. While several listings mention ocean, city, and Diamond Head views, none mention fireworks views.

Very strong evidence that Regency Tower has a resident manager on-site. The remarks mention it in many separate listings—about 14+ of the provided remarks explicitly say 'resident manager,' 'on-site Resident Manager,' or similar wording. This appears consistent across multiple agents and is not just a one-off copy-paste mention.
