Scandia Towers
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.

I searched for explicit owner-occupancy language such as "80% owner occupied," "majority owner occupied," or other ownership-rate statements. The only occupancy figure in the remarks refers to short-term rental occupancy, which does not support changing owner occupancy. The current value of 40.0 is retained.
I looked for explicit elevator counts such as "2 elevators," "multiple elevators," or similar wording. The remarks only confirm that the building has elevator access, so the current value of 1 is retained. No evidence in the listings is strong enough to change the count.
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.

Cable TV is supported by strong current MLS evidence: 4 of 4 listings include CABTV in the association fees. None of the remarks contradict this, and the consistent MLS checkbox pattern suggests this is a stable building-level inclusion rather than a copy-paste anomaly.

None of the 3 listings have HOTWAT in association_fee_includes, and all 3 list WTRHTR (individual water heaters) in inclusions, indicating hot water is provided by unit heaters rather than a central system covered by HOA fees.

Sewer is consistently included in the association fees across all current MLS listings (4/4). The public remarks do not mention any separate sewer charges or other conflicting billing arrangement, so the evidence is highly consistent.
Water is included according to all current MLS listings (4/4). There is no contrary evidence in the remarks, making this a strong and consistent building-level amenity/inclusion.

Trash chute appears to be a real building amenity: current MLS data shows 3 of 4 listings marked TRACHU, and none of the public remarks contradict it. The remarks are focused on unit features and do not suggest any correction or removal of the amenity, so this remains a high-confidence building feature.

In-unit laundry is strongly supported for this building. At least 1 listing explicitly says 'in-unit washer/dryer,' and current MLS inclusions show 4 of 4 listings with WASHER/DRYER. The evidence is consistent and appears to reflect actual unit features, not a copy-paste anomaly.

Strong evidence that parking is assigned/reserved in this building. Current MLS data shows 4 of 4 listings with ASSIGN, and one public remark explicitly states 'Includes 1 assigned parking spot.' This looks consistent across listings rather than a copy-paste anomaly.
Covered parking is supported by both MLS codes and multiple remarks. Current data shows 3 of 4 listings with covered/garage-related parking features, and the remarks include phrases like 'one covered parking stall' and '1-covered parking.' The evidence is strong and consistent across listings.
I searched for deeded parking indicators such as deeded, owned stall, parking included in deed, or parking included with title. The remarks only describe assigned/covered parking, so deeded parking is not confirmed.
No analysis available
I looked for any explicit monthly parking cost, rental fee, or additional parking charge and found none. The listings mention parking included/assigned, but not whether there is any separate fee.

I searched for waitlist language such as parking waitlist, parking waiting list, or join the waitlist for parking. Nothing in the public remarks indicates that parking is managed by a waitlist system.

Window AC appears to be available in some units, but not consistently advertised. The strongest evidence is the MLS inclusions data (2/4 listings with ACWIUN), while the public remarks for the current listings specifically call out “split AC” instead of window units. This suggests the building offers mixed AC types across units rather than a universal feature.
Three of four current listings identify the building as concrete construction via CONCRE in construction_materials. None of the public remarks contradict this, and the repeated MLS material entry suggests a stable building-level characteristic rather than a copy-paste error.
Three of four current listings include DOUWAL (double wall) in construction_materials. The public remarks do not mention construction type, but there is also no conflict, so the MLS data provides strong building-level evidence.

The remarks repeatedly and explicitly state that the building/unit is legal for short-term rentals and in a resort zone. This is strong public-remarks evidence that STRs are allowed.
I looked for hotel-pool terminology such as hotel rental pool, managed by hotel, Hilton pool, or similar language and found none. Since the remarks only address legal STR use, hotel-pool participation is not indicated.
I searched for language indicating required participation in a rental pool, such as mandatory pool, must participate, or cannot opt out, and found nothing. With no evidence of a hotel rental program at all, mandatory pooling is not supported.

I looked for land tenure language such as leasehold, ground lease, lease expiry, renewal, or an expiration year and found nothing. Because no specific lease end date is provided, the expiry year remains unknown.
I searched the remarks for any reference to VA approval or VA financing and found none. With no supporting evidence in the listings, this is best treated as not indicated from public remarks.
I looked for wording indicating the HOA provides full walls-in coverage or that the building is fully insured. The remarks do not mention insurance coverage at all. With no current value and no evidence, this is set to false at low confidence.
No analysis available
I searched the remarks for any reference to fire/life safety evaluation, FLSE passed, fire inspection, or related compliance language. Nothing was mentioned, so there is no basis to mark this as passed. With no current value and no evidence, this remains false at low confidence.

City views appear to be a building-level offering supported by the MLS: 4 of 4 current listings mark CITY in the view field, with none showing NONE. Public remarks do not explicitly mention city views, so this looks more like consistent MLS data than repeated marketing copy, but the available evidence still strongly supports view_city = true.

All 4 of 4 current listings include RESMAN in MLS amenities, which strongly indicates the building has a resident manager on-site. The public remarks do not mention it directly, but there is no evidence contradicting the MLS data, and the feature appears consistently across multiple listings rather than as a one-off agent entry.

Confidence levels are based on MLS checkbox data and AI analysis of listing remarks. High = strong evidence, Medium = some evidence, Low = limited or conflicting evidence. Buyers should always verify critical details independently.
