Sandalwood
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.

Public remarks contain no numeric percentage or descriptive statement about owner-occupancy. I looked for explicit percentages and descriptive phrases indicating owner-occupancy and found none. Without explicit remarks or a current verified value, the owner-occupancy percentage is unknown and cannot be inferred.
Public remarks contain no reference to the number of elevators. I searched the remarks for terms like 'elevator', 'elevators', numeric counts (e.g., '4 elevators'), and verbal counts (e.g., 'four elevators') and found nothing. Because there is no explicit numeric statement, the elevator count is unknown and cannot be changed or guessed.

Strong, repeated agent remarks across many listings say 'Maintenance fee includes ... cable' or 'cable TV included.' 16 of 18 current MLS records have CABTV checked, and several remarks explicitly state 'Maintenance fee includes all utilities + cable,' indicating building-level inclusion of cable service.
Evidence is implied rather than explicit: 7 of 18 MLS records list OTCOEX and many remarks repeatedly state 'maintenance fee includes electricity' or 'all utilities,' suggesting the association covers building/common electrical costs; however, few remarks explicitly say 'common area electricity' so confidence is moderate.
No analysis available
Very strong evidence across listings: every current MLS record flags ELECTR and many listing remarks explicitly state 'Maintenance fee includes electricity' or 'ALL utilities,' supporting that electricity is included in the maintenance fee.
Multiple listing remarks explicitly state gas is included ('gas, electric, water, sewer', 'Maintenance fee includes ALL utilities'), and MLS data shows GAS checked on 16 of 17 current listings, providing strong corroborating evidence that gas is covered by the maintenance fee.
Consistent, explicit mentions across listings: many remarks say 'hot water/water' or 'hot & cold water' included and HOTWAT is checked in the majority of MLS entries (16/18), indicating hot water is covered by the maintenance fee.
Moderate evidence: several listing remarks explicitly state 'internet' or 'internet included' in the maintenance fee and 5 of 18 MLS entries flag INTSER. Evidence is consistent but less widespread than other utilities, so confidence is moderate.
No analysis available
Strong support: the majority of MLS records (17/18) include SEWER and numerous remarks explicitly state 'sewer' or 'all utilities' are included in maintenance fees, indicating sewer service is covered.
Very strong evidence across listings: WATER is checked in all current MLS records and many remarks explicitly note 'water' or 'hot & cold water' included, confirming water service is part of the maintenance fee.

Strong evidence that the building offers storage units/lockers: the MLS currently marks storage in amenities or unit features in 14/16 listings (8 amenities, 6 unit_features) and at least a majority of the public remarks explicitly state "storage locker", "large storage locker", "spacious storage area" or similar. Mentions appear across many agents' remarks (e.g., "storage locker," "spacious storage area," "comes with a large storage locker"), suggesting the amenity is real rather than isolated copy/paste errors.

Evidence is strong that the building has a trash chute: 13 of 18 current MLS listings include the TRACHU amenity and several public remarks explicitly state "trash chute" (e.g., "trash chute, rooftop laundry..."). Mentions appear across multiple listings/agents rather than being absent, so include the feature with high confidence.

All current MLS listings (18/18) list the pool amenity and the public remarks repeatedly mention pool-related language such as "refreshing pool", "swimming pool", "community pool", and "take in poolside views." Evidence is strong and consistent across multiple listings/agents, indicating the building does offer a shared pool.

Strong evidence that the building has shared laundry: MLS checkbox shows COMLAU on 17/18 listings and multiple public remarks explicitly state "community laundry", "rooftop laundry" or "laundry room". At least nine separate listing remarks reference the shared/rooftop laundry, appearing across different agent write-ups rather than as a single outlier, so confidence is high that the building offers community laundry facilities.
No analysis available
Multiple listings state laundry is on the rooftop/top floor only, e.g., "rooftop laundry with scenic views" and "community laundry on the top floor."
No analysis available
High prior MLS support (16/18 listings with ASSIGN) combined with multiple remarks referencing assigned or single dedicated stalls (quotes: 'assigned covered, gated parking', 'assigned partial covered parking stall', '1 covered parking stall') provides strong evidence the building offers assigned/reserved parking. Mentions appear across several agent remarks rather than only a single copy-paste entry.
Consistent historical MLS checkbox support (15/18) and numerous listing remarks explicitly stating 'covered parking', 'covered, secured parking', or 'covered parking stall' (multiple listings) confirm the building provides covered parking. Evidence is widespread across different agent remarks and units (including mentions of single covered stalls and partial covered stalls).
Listings repeatedly reference covered/secured/assigned parking stalls (e.g., 'covered, secured parking', 'assigned partial covered parking stall'), which indicates assigned parking but does not explicitly say parking is deeded/owned. Because 'deeded' is not mentioned, deeded parking is set to false with medium confidence.
No analysis available
Searched for 'parking fee', 'monthly parking', 'additional parking cost' and similar phrases. Remarks describe covered/assigned parking as included/available but do not specify any separate parking charge, so parking fee is unknown from the remarks.
No analysis available
Secured parking/entry is consistently referenced: about 10–11 of the 16 remarks include terms like 'secured parking', 'gated parking', 'gated/secured parking', or 'secured entry'. This matches the MLS parking_features count and appears across multiple agents' remarks, yielding high confidence that the building offers secured entry to parking.

Searched for 'parking waitlist', 'waiting list', and related phrases. There were many references to assigned/covered parking but no reference to a waitlist system, so parking waitlist is set to false with medium confidence.

0 of 17 public remarks explicitly mention a security guard or 24/7 security. Multiple listings instead say "resident manager on site," "secured building," and "gated/secured parking," suggesting access control but not dedicated security personnel. Given only 1/17 MLS records checking SECGUA and no explicit remarks across agents, there's strong evidence the building does not offer an on-site security guard.

16 of 17 current MLS listings include 'CONCRE' in construction_materials, indicating the building is very likely concrete. Public remarks across these listings do not explicitly state 'concrete' (no agent remarks contradicting), so the consistent MLS checkbox data from multiple agents is the primary evidence. Given the strong majority of listings reporting CONCRE, the building is marked as concrete with high confidence.
7 of 16 MLS listings include DOUWAL but public remarks contain no references to 'double wall' or 'double-wall construction.' The listings show inconsistent checkbox usage and no agent remarks confirming the feature, so there is insufficient evidence to conclude the building has double-wall construction.

Only 2 of 18 MLS records include ABOGRO in construction materials (low historical prevalence). Across all public remarks (many repeated), there are zero mentions of 'above ground', 'above-ground construction', or related materials—no agents describe a new or existing above-ground construction feature. Given the low checkbox rate and lack of supporting remarks, there is insufficient evidence to mark the building as above-ground construction.

Searched the remarks for 'short-term rental', 'vacation rental', 'TVU', 'NUC', '30-day minimum' and related terms. There is no evidence either allowing or discussing STRs, so STRs are assumed not allowed (false) with medium confidence.
Checked for 'hotel rental pool', 'hotel rental program', and specific hotel pool language. No references were found and because str_allowed is false based on remarks, hotel pool participation is set to false.
Looked for phrases like 'mandatory hotel pool', 'required to participate', or 'must be in rental program'. None were found. Since STRs are not indicated, mandatory pool participation is set to false.

Searched the remarks for phrases like 'lease expires', 'land lease to', 'leasehold expiring', or explicit years (e.g., 2050). No leasehold or lease-expiry year was found, so the expiry year is unknown.
Multiple listings explicitly state the building is VA approved (e.g., 'VA APPROVED', 'VA approval'), indicating VA financing is accepted. High confidence because the language is direct and repeated.
Multiple public remarks explicitly state the building is 100% hurricane insured (walls-in coverage). Per the rules, explicit mention in remarks supports a high-confidence true value.
No analysis available
The public remarks do not state that the building passed a fire/life safety evaluation or similar certification. I searched for phrases such as 'fire life safety evaluation passed', 'FLSE passed', 'passed fire inspection', and related terms and found no matches. In the absence of any explicit mention and with no current verified value provided, this is reported as false with medium confidence.

One of 17 current MLS listings lists a mountain view ('MOUNTA') in the view_descriptions, but none of the public remarks reference mountain, Koolau, or mauka views. Evidence is limited to a single MLS checkbox entry (likely applied to a specific unit) and does not appear broadly in agent remarks, so inclusion is based on some MLS data but with only moderate confidence.
No analysis available
7 of 18 current MLS entries list CITY in view_descriptions and many public remarks reference views or urban/city living (quotes: "rooftop community laundry with scenic views", "vibrant city life", "putting the best of the city within easy reach"). The evidence is consistent across multiple listings and agents but often implied rather than a direct repeated phrase like "city view," so confidence is set to medium-high.
No analysis available
Two of 17 current MLS listings list 'GARDEN' in view_descriptions, but none of the provided public remarks explicitly mention garden, courtyard, or landscaped views. The feature appears in a small number of MLS entries (possibly for certain units) without broader confirmation in agent remarks, so it's included for the building with moderate confidence.

Strong evidence the building has a resident/on-site manager: historical MLS checkbox data reported 15 of 18 listings with RESMAN, and in the current remarks at least a dozen listings explicitly state phrases such as "resident manager on site," "on-site manager," and "on-site resident manager's office." The wording is consistent across multiple agent remarks (not a single isolated entry), supporting a high-confidence true value.
