I searched the remarks for any numeric or qualitative statements about owner-occupancy (e.g., 'X% owner occupied', 'majority owner occupied', 'highly owner occupied') and found none. Without an explicit value or user verification, the owner-occupancy percentage is unknown and is returned as null.
The public remarks mention elevator(s) (e.g., 'doors to the elevator equipment is within storage unit' and a parking stall described as 'next to the elevators'), but no explicit count (e.g., '4 elevators') is provided. Searched remarks for numeric phrases like '4 elevators', 'two elevators', 'multiple elevators' and only found contextual references without a number. Per rules, cannot guess a numeric value without explicit evidence.

16 of 20 MLS records include CABTV and at least one public remark explicitly says "included basic TV cable." Evidence is consistent across many listings and not limited to a single outlier, indicating building-level inclusion of basic cable in maintenance.
12 of 20 MLS records include OTCOEX (other/common expenses) in association fee includes. While remarks don't explicitly mention "common area electricity," the prevalence of the OTCOEX flag across listings provides moderate evidence that some common-area utility/electric expenses are included.

Only 1/20 MLS records show GAS in association_fee_includes and no public remarks reference gas included. This sparse, uncorroborated indication supports marking gas as not included.
Only 2 of 20 MLS records check HOTWAT while 16 of 20 list WTRHTR (in-unit water heater). The strong presence of WTRHTR and absence of hot-water mentions in remarks indicate hot water is not covered by the maintenance fee.
15 of 20 MLS records include INTSER and a public remark explicitly notes "basic internet/Wi-Fi" is included. Multiple listings reference internet being included, supporting inclusion as a building-level feature.
No analysis available
18 of 20 MLS records list SEWER and at least one remark explicitly notes "water/sewer" are included, providing strong multi-listing corroboration that sewer service is covered by maintenance fees.
18 of 20 MLS records include WATER and public remarks explicitly state "water/sewer" are included. Multiple listings from different agents corroborate that water is part of the maintenance fee.
Clear and repeated evidence: MLS data lists BBQ in 20/20 listings and remarks across many ads cite "BBQ cabanas/pavilions," "BBQ area," and specific references such as "9 BBQ stations" on the amenity deck, indicating consistent, building-level grilling facilities.

Several agent remarks highlight 'concierge services' among the building’s five-star amenities, indicating an active concierge/front-desk offering. With CONCIE appearing in 4 of 20 MLS listings and repeated mention across different listings, there is strong evidence that concierge service is available to residents.
Over a dozen listings highlight canine amenities, using terms like 'dog park', 'dog run', 'dog area', and 'dog park & more' on the Sky Terrace. Coupled with DGPRK checked in 17/20 MLS entries, this provides strong evidence that the building offers a shared dog park/pet exercise area.
No analysis available
Strong, consistent evidence: MLS amenity checkbox EXEROO appears in 20/20 current listings and numerous remarks explicitly mention a fitness center, gym, yoga room, and outdoor workout area (phrases: "state of the art fitness center with yoga room and outdoor gym," "well-equipped gym"). Multiple agents independently describe this building-level amenity, indicating high confidence.
No analysis available
Supported by multiple sources: MEEROO appears in 17/20 MLS entries and remarks often note "private dining rooms," "private rooms," and "party rooms"—amenities that function as reservable meeting/conference/community rooms for residents.
Strong, building-level evidence: 17/20 MLS listings list patio/deck in amenities and the public remarks repeatedly reference private lanais (e.g., “private lanai”, “96 sq. ft. lanai”, “100 sq ft lanai”) and a large 8th-floor Sky Terrace amenity deck with outdoor pools, BBQ cabanas and outdoor gathering spaces. Multiple agents independently mention both private lanais and the shared amenity deck, indicating the feature is real and widely available to residents.

Strong evidence: RECARE is present in 20/20 MLS entries and many listings describe the expansive Sky Terrace/amenity deck (phrases: "amenity deck," "Sky Terrace," "rec deck," "open green spaces"), indicating extensive shared outdoor recreation areas.
Well-supported: RECROO appears in 17/20 MLS entries and multiple remarks explicitly mention "private recreation/party rooms," "recreational rooms with full kitchens," and "party rooms," showing the building offers shared indoor recreation/entertaining spaces.
Moderate-to-strong evidence: While RESTAU is present in 8/20 MLS entries, multiple remarks explicitly reference on-site dining including "Sera Hawaii," "Okdongsik," "Mara restaurant," and poolside bar/food service—showing there are in-building or connected restaurant options.
No analysis available
High confidence: SAUNA appears in 19/20 MLS entries and numerous remarks give explicit descriptions ("sauna/steam rooms," "dry & steam sauna," "his & her spa," "Himalayan salt sauna"), demonstrating comprehensive spa/sauna facilities.
Numerous listings explicitly mention deeded or assigned storage, including phrases like 'large storage locker', '2 storage lockers', and 'storage locker (unit 7048L)', and one listing is a sale of a storage unit only attached to a condo unit. Current MLS checkbox data (storage in 12/20 amenities and 10/20 unit features) aligns with these remarks, indicating that many units have associated storage lockers or rooms. Evidence spans multiple units and agents, confirming that storage units are an established feature of the building.
I searched for 'surfboard storage', 'board storage', and similar terms and found none. Although multiple listings advertise storage lockers (and some note beach gear), there is no explicit mention of dedicated surfboard storage in the public remarks.
No analysis available
Reasonably supported: TRACHU is marked in 19/20 MLS entries and at least one remark explicitly lists "Trash Chute" among amenities. While direct mentions in public remarks are less frequent than other amenities, the consistent MLS checkbox plus an explicit reference provide sufficient evidence.
No supporting evidence in public remarks: none of the listings' remarks explicitly reference 'valet', 'valet service', or 'valet parking'. Given that MLS checkboxes show only 1/20 with VALET and historical confidence was absent/low, the lack of any remark across many agent descriptions indicates the valet feature is not a building amenity.
No analysis available
Many listings describe multiple water amenities including 'pool & whirlpool spa', 'lap pool and second pool with whirlpool spas', 'hot tubs', and 'jacuzzis' on the Sky Terrace. Together with the majority of MLS entries marking WHIRLP, this confirms a shared whirlpool/hot-tub style spa is available to residents.
Nearly every public remark for Sky Ala Moana repeatedly cites building pools and lap pools — examples include “resort-style pool,” “two swimming pools,” “25-meter lap pool,” and “one of Honolulu’s largest residential pools.” Evidence is consistent across many listings and agents, matching prior high-confidence MLS checkbox data that indicated pool amenities for virtually all units.
Many public remarks explicitly mention heated pool facilities — key quotes include “heated lap pool,” “two heated saltwater pools,” and “heated pools.” While not every single listing repeats the heating detail, multiple independent remarks from different listings and agents describe heated/heatable pools, giving strong evidence that the building’s pools are heated.
I searched for 'salt water pool' and similar phrasing; several listings explicitly describe heated saltwater pools and himalayan heated saltwater pools on the amenity deck, confirming the pools are saltwater.
Strong, consistent evidence that units in Sky Ala Moana West include in‑unit laundry: 20 of 20 current MLS listings indicate washer/dryer in the inclusions and multiple remarks explicitly state 'stackable washer/dryer', 'full-size washer and dryer', and 'Electrolux washer and dryer'. These mentions appear across many different agent remarks and unit descriptions (not isolated), supporting a high-confidence conclusion that the building offers in-unit laundry in at least some — and likely most — units.
No analysis available
I searched for 'coin laundry', 'paid laundry', 'card operated', 'quarters', and similar terms and found no references. The remarks focus on in-unit laundry, so there is no evidence of building-paid/coin laundry facilities.
I searched public remarks for phrases like 'laundry on each floor', 'laundry room on every floor', or 'floor-by-floor laundry' and found none. Instead, listings repeatedly reference in-unit laundry (stackable or full-size), indicating there are no community laundry facilities on every floor.
No analysis available
Strong evidence that the building offers assigned parking: historical MLS shows 17/20 listings with ASSIGN and multiple current remarks explicitly state 'assigned' or 'reserved' stalls (examples: 'assigned parking stall with EV-charging', 'one assigned parking'). Mentions appear across many agents/listings and consistently describe designated/reserved stalls rather than a single outlier, indicating this is a building-level offering.
Very strong evidence for covered parking: all MLS records flagged covered parking (20/20) and numerous listing remarks explicitly state 'covered' or 'covered garage/carport' (examples: 'two covered side by side parking stalls', 'covered garage parking stall'). The coverage description is consistent across many agents and listings, supporting high confidence that the building provides covered parking.
Numerous listings explicitly describe parking stalls as assigned/deeded or owned with the unit, including statements that two-bedroom units include deeded parking.
No analysis available
Searched for 'parking fee', 'monthly parking', 'parking rental' and found no references. Many listings note included/deeded stalls and guest parking instead.
Multiple listings highlight guest parking as part of the amenity offering, using phrases like 'lots of guest parking' and listing 'guest parking' alongside pools, spa, and gym. With more than half of recent MLS entries checking the guest parking box and multiple agents independently promoting it, guest parking is clearly available in this building. There is no evidence suggesting this is a mistaken or removed feature.
At least one listing specifically notes 'two side by side, gated parking stalls plus storage,' directly indicating secured/gated parking access. Other remarks mention 'secured entry' and constant security, and 9/20 current MLS entries mark SECENT, aligning with earlier data describing secured/gated stalls. Together this supports that the parking area has a secured/gated entry system rather than open, unsecured parking.

No analysis available
Searched for 'parking waitlist'/'waiting list' and found none. Given explicit language about assigned/deeded stalls and plentiful guest parking, there's no evidence of a waitlist.
No analysis available
I looked for 'key card access', 'fob access', 'card reader', and related terms and found none in the public remarks. While the building has robust security (24-hour/security guard/resident manager), there is no evidence of a card/fob access system in the remarks.
Multiple listings describe staffed security, including explicit phrases like '24-hour security and a resident manager on-site' and 'on site security.' Combined with SECGUA checked in 9 of 20 MLS listings and prior high-confidence data, this strongly supports that the building provides security guard services.
I searched for wording indicating a roving or patrol-style security service and found no mentions. The remarks describe on-site guards/resident manager and 24-hour security, but not a security patrol service.

High-confidence evidence the building offers split (ductless/mini-split) AC: MLS inclusion ACSPL was checked in 19 of 20 listings and numerous agent remarks explicitly state 'split A/C', 'split AC in every room', 'dual-zone split A/C', or list multiple split units per residence. Mentions appear across many different listings and agents (not isolated), indicating this is a building-level feature available in some or all units.
No analysis available
MLS property data indicates 19 of 20 current listings mark the building as concrete construction (construction_materials=CONCRE), giving high historical consistency. Public remarks (many agents) describe a newly completed high-rise/tower (completed 2023) but do not explicitly say 'concrete'—nevertheless the overwhelming MLS checkbox agreement across multiple listings/agents provides strong evidence the building is concrete-constructed.
Roughly half of the MLS entries (9/20) mark DOUWAL, but there are no textual mentions of double-wall or related construction details in any public remarks. Given that Sky Ala Moana West is a large, modern concrete high-rise and double-wall construction is not characteristic for this building type, the DOUWAL flag appears to reflect checkbox misuse rather than actual structure. We therefore consider double-wall construction not present for this building.

A minority of current MLS entries (7/20) add STEFRA, but no remarks across dozens of listings ever reference 'steel frame' construction, and most listings omit it while still checking concrete. For a 2023 Honolulu high-rise already well-established as concrete, the limited and inconsistent STEFRA usage appears to be agent input variance rather than evidence of a steel-frame building. Based on the building type and data pattern, we treat steel-frame construction as not applicable here.

Confidence 90%: The building is repeatedly described as a new high-rise concrete tower; 'Above Ground' in this MLS context typically refers to post-and-pier or raised structures, which is incompatible with a modern high-rise; only 2/20 MLS listings check ABOGRO, suggesting checkbox error.

Multiple remarks directly state the building allows monthly/30-day minimum rentals and market the building as investor-friendly, confirming short-term (monthly) rental allowance.
While the building is co-designed/connected to the Renaissance Marriott and shares hotel amenities, none of the public remarks explicitly say there is a hotel rental pool program. Therefore hotel-pool participation is not confirmed.
There is no language requiring owners to participate in a hotel rental pool or stating 'mandatory' participation. Listings discuss allowed monthly rentals and professional management but not compulsory pool enrollment.

Lease expiry is not applicable because the building is marketed as fee simple. No leasehold/ground lease year was mentioned in any listing.
Searched listings for terms like 'VA approved', 'VA financing', or 'VA loans accepted' and found no references. With no evidence in the remarks, VA financing is assumed not stated.
The remarks were reviewed for HOA insurance language (e.g., 'fully insured', 'walls-in coverage', 'comprehensive building insurance') and contain no such statements. Because there is no explicit confirmation in the public remarks, this is set to false with medium confidence following the guidance.
Multiple listings (16/20 MLS entries) check the fire sprinkler amenity, and one remark explicitly lists 'Fire Sprinkler' among building amenities. Combined with the building’s 2023 high-rise construction, this strongly confirms a building-wide fire sprinkler system. Evidence is consistent across many agents and matches prior high-confidence data.
I searched the remarks for explicit language indicating the building passed a fire/life safety evaluation (terms like 'FLSE passed', 'fire life safety evaluation passed', 'fire safety certified', etc.) and found none. With no mention and no current confirmed value, this is set to false with medium confidence per the rules.
Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.

Very strong evidence: dozens of listings explicitly mention ocean or Pacific Ocean views (e.g., 'Pacific Ocean views', 'blue ocean', 'ocean & Magic Island'), with multiple high-floor corner stacks described as offering ocean vistas. Evidence appears repeatedly across multiple agents and listings, not likely copy-paste error.
Numerous listings (20+ across different stacks and floors) clearly advertise mountain views, including 'city and mountain views,' 'Ewa and mountain views,' and 'views of the Ko‘olau mountains.' These mentions come from multiple agents and marketing descriptions, not just copy-paste of a single phrase. Together with prior high-confidence data, this confirms that the building offers mountain-view units despite the MLS checkbox data omitting 'MOUNTAIN.'
Strong evidence: many listings explicitly mention Diamond Head views (e.g., 'Diamond Head-facing', 'stunning Diamond Head views') including high-floor corner units. Multiple independent listings reference Diamond Head consistently, supporting inclusion.
Very strong evidence: dozens of listings explicitly note city or skyline views (e.g., 'city skyline views', 'city lights', 'panoramic city & mountain views'), repeated across many units and agents, indicating city-view units are widely available in the building.
No analysis available
Several listings highlight the building’s extensive landscaped amenity areas, using terms like 'Enchanted Gardens,' 'open green spaces,' and 'vibrant outdoor space,' and some units note 'amenity deck view' along with other vistas. The Sky Terrace is one of Honolulu’s largest amenity decks and is clearly visible from various units, which means buyers can find residences that look out over landscaped and garden-like spaces. While agents rarely use the exact phrase 'garden view,' the consistent description of these green amenity vistas supports including a garden/courtyard view option for the building.
No analysis available
Moderate evidence: a small number of listings reference harbor/harbor-type views (e.g., 'harbor' or harbor-adjacent descriptors), suggesting some units may have marina/harbor sightlines. Mentions are limited compared with ocean/city references, so inclusion is warranted for buyer searches but with lower confidence.

Several public remarks explicitly say residents can view Friday night fireworks from the lanai or living room (e.g., 'catch Friday night fireworks from your lanai', 'See the fireworks on Friday nights from your lanai'). This directly confirms fireworks are visible from the building.

MLS checkbox data indicates 17 of 20 current listings include RESMAN, and at least one public remark explicitly states '24-hour security and a resident manager on-site.' Given the strong, consistent checkbox prevalence across many listings plus an explicit remark confirming on-site residency/management, there is high confidence the building has a resident manager.
