Waipuna

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.

Owner Occupancy
50%
High

Found explicit remark(s) indicating around 50% owner occupancy (phrases like '50+ owner occupancy'). Multiple listings support this level and no contradictory percentages were found, so the 50.00 value is retained with high confidence.

Elevators
6
Low

Kept current numeric value of 6 because none of the listings explicitly state the number of elevators. I searched all remarks for numeric phrases like '4 elevators', 'six elevators', '4 lift', etc., and found only generic mentions of 'elevator' or references to elevator service, not a count.

Association Fee Low
$770
High

Calculated from the lowest association fee observed across all non-penthouse unit listings for this building.

Association Fee High
$1,139
High

Calculated from the highest association fee observed across all non-penthouse unit listings for this building.

Association Fee (Penthouse)
$2,350
High

Calculated from association fees observed in penthouse unit listings for this building.

Fee Includes Central AC
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Cable
Yes
High

Very strong building-level evidence: 19 of 20 MLS records list CABTV and agent remarks include explicit language such as "Internet and cable are included" and references to "basic cable" being covered. Evidence appears across many listings/agents (likely building-wide inclusion rather than isolated copy-paste).

Fee Includes Common
Yes
Medium

Moderate evidence: 13 of 20 MLS records include OTCOEX and many agent remarks reference low maintenance fees covering building services/amenities (e.g., lighting/pool/rec-deck). The evidence is somewhat implied across multiple listings rather than repeatedly spelled out, so confidence is moderate.

Fee Includes Coop Taxes
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Electricity
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Gas
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Hot Water
Yes
High

Strong evidence: 15 of 20 MLS entries list HOTWAT and several remarks explicitly state "maintenance fees include hot water, water, sewer" (and similar phrasing). A few listings show WTRHTR in inclusions (3/20), but the preponderance of records and remarks indicate hot water is included in building maintenance fees.

Fee Includes Internet
Yes
High

Moderate-to-strong evidence: 11 of 20 MLS records include INTSER and agent remarks explicitly state "Internet and cable are included" in several listings. The explicit mentions across listings support inclusion as a building-level feature.

Fee Includes Marina
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Sewer
Yes
High

Very strong evidence: 19 of 20 MLS entries indicate sewer is included and agent remarks frequently state maintenance fees cover sewer. This is consistent building-level information across numerous listings and agents.

Fee Includes Water
Yes
High

Very strong evidence: 19 of 20 MLS records list WATER as included and agent remarks explicitly mention "water" (e.g., "maintenance fees include hot water, water, sewer"). The consistency across listings indicates water is included in the building maintenance fees.

Bbq
Yes
High

High confidence: 19 of 20 MLS entries historically listed BBQ facilities and many remarks explicitly call out 'BBQ', 'BBQ areas' or 'barbecue area' (e.g., 'BBQ's, tennis/pickleball court, gym'), consistent across multiple agent listings.

Bike Storage
Yes

No analysis available

Boat Dock
No

No analysis available

Car Wash
Yes
High

Moderate-to-high confidence: 8 of 20 MLS entries list a car wash and several public remarks explicitly name a 'car wash station/area', indicating the building offers a vehicle wash facility though it is less frequently listed than core amenities.

Club House
Yes
High

Confidence 90%: 2/20 MLS entries list CLUHOU and one remark lists 'BBQ/Club House/Exercise room/ Pool/Recreation area/Sauna/Tennis...'.

Concierge
No

No analysis available

Dog Park
Yes
High

Strong evidence: 14 of 20 MLS entries list a dog run/dog park and numerous remarks explicitly mention a dog run/doggy park/pet-run, confirming a pet exercise area is provided in the building grounds.

Doorman
No

No analysis available

Exercise Room
Yes
High

Strong evidence: 18 of 20 MLS entries historically listed an exercise room and the current public remarks explicitly reference 'exercise room', 'fitness center', and 'gym' in multiple listings (e.g., 'exercise room', 'fitness center', 'fully equipped gym'). Confirmation appears across different agent remarks rather than isolated copy/paste.

Limo Service
No
High

Across dozens of listings that carefully list extensive amenities (pool, gym, courts, pond, car wash, etc.), no agent ever mentions limousine, house car, or courtesy car service—something that would normally be heavily marketed if present. With just a single MLS checkbox and zero textual support, limo/car service is very likely not a building feature.

Meeting Room
Yes
High

Agents describe a dedicated meeting-type space with phrases like "meeting/party room," "meeting room," and "meeting rooms," often in long amenity lists. This consistent description across multiple listings supports that the building includes at least one shared meeting/conference-style room.

Patio Deck
Yes
High

MLS checkbox data indicates 11 of 20 listings list PATDEC/COVPAT and multiple public remarks explicitly reference private or covered lanais (phrases like "large lanai", "covered lanai", "private lanai", "expansive covered lanai"). Evidence is consistent across many listings and agents, supporting that the building offers patio/deck (lanai) amenities for units.

Path Jogging
Yes
High

Multiple agents describe paths around the building’s pond and gardens, using phrases like "walking path," "Private Garden path walks," "serene walking path around the pond," and "walking/jogging path." This consistent language across many listings indicates a dedicated walking/jogging path as part of the common grounds.

Playground
No

No analysis available

Private Yard
No

No analysis available

Putting Green
Yes
High

High confidence: 16 of 20 MLS entries historically listed a putting green and the public remarks often include 'putting green', 'putting green and driving net', or 'golf hitting net' (e.g., 'putting green, golf hitting net'), confirmed across multiple agent listings.

Recreation Area
Yes
High

High confidence: 18 of 20 MLS entries list recreation area and the remarks consistently describe outdoor recreation decks, a party pavilion, pond walking paths and other shared recreation spaces across many listings.

Recreation Room
Yes
High

Good evidence: 15 of 20 MLS entries historically listed a recreation/party/meeting room and many current remarks explicitly reference 'recreation area', 'party room' or 'meeting/party room' (e.g., 'recreation deck with a party pavilion', 'meeting/party room'), indicating this common building amenity.

Restaurant
No

No analysis available

Rooftop
No

No analysis available

Sauna
Yes
High

High confidence: 16 of 20 MLS entries list a sauna and many remarks explicitly mention 'sauna' (including gendered saunas in some listings), confirming sauna facilities are a consistent building amenity.

Storage Unit
Yes
High

Strong evidence that Waipuna offers storage lockers/units: 17 of 20 current MLS listings have storage checked in amenities and numerous public remarks explicitly state "assigned storage locker," "storage unit," or "dedicated storage" (examples: “1 storage locker on ground floor,” “assigned storage locker,” “dedicated storage”). Mentions appear across multiple agent listings (not isolated), consistent with prior high-confidence data, so include storage_unit = true.

Surfboard Storage
Yes
High

Several listings directly reference surfboard storage or surf racks as an amenity. The repeated explicit mentions across listings support marking surfboard_storage as true with very high confidence.

Tennis Court
Yes
High

Strong evidence: 15 of 20 MLS entries historically listed tennis court(s) and the current remarks repeatedly mention 'tennis/pickleball court' or 'tennis courts' in many listings (e.g., 'tennis/pickleball court', 'paddle tennis'), showing consistent multi-listing confirmation.

Trash Chute
Yes
Medium

Moderate confidence: 13 of 20 MLS entries list a trash chute and several remarks explicitly include 'trash chute' among building conveniences. While mentioned less often than major amenities, multiple agents cite it, supporting inclusion with moderate confidence.

Valet
No

No analysis available

Wall Fence
No

No analysis available

Whirlpool
Yes

No analysis available

Pool
Yes
High

Very strong evidence: 20/20 current MLS listings include pool amenity codes and dozens of public remarks reference the building pool (examples: "heated pool", "swimming pool", "recently upgraded pool deck"). Mentions appear across many different agent remarks rather than isolated listings, indicating a genuine, building-level shared amenity.

Pool Heated
Yes
High

Multiple separate listings explicitly advertise a heated pool (quotes include “heated pool,” “heated swimming pool,” and “heated swimming pool, sauna”). While only some MLS checkbox codes indicated HEAPOO, the consistent, repeated heated-pool mentions across many agent remarks and listings provide strong corroboration that the building’s pool is heated.

Pool Salt
No
Low

The listings frequently describe the pool as heated, renovated, or sparkling, but none explicitly state it is a saltwater/saline pool. I searched for explicit terms ('salt water pool', 'saltwater pool', 'salt pool', 'saline pool') and found no references, so this is set to false with medium confidence.

Laundry In Unit
Yes
High

Strong, consistent evidence that some units at Waipuna have in-unit laundry: multiple listings (consistent with the 20/20 MLS inclusions) explicitly state "W/D in the unit", "in-unit washer/dryer", "brand-new washer/dryer", or "full-size washer and dryer." Mentions appear across many different listings/agents and match the prior high-confidence MLS data, indicating this feature is reliably present in the building.

Community Laundry
No

No analysis available

Community Laundry Paid
No
Low

I searched the public remarks for indicators of paid community laundry (terms like 'coin laundry', 'coin-op', 'quarters', 'paid', 'card operated') but found none. Since there is no mention of paid community laundry in any listing, this is set to false with medium confidence.

Community Laundry Every Floor
No
Low

I reviewed all public remarks for explicit phrasing indicating laundry facilities on every floor (e.g., 'laundry on each floor', 'laundry room on every floor', 'floor-by-floor laundry'). There were no references to any community laundry rooms, let alone one on every floor, so the feature is set to false with medium confidence.

Parking
Yes

No analysis available

Parking Assigned
Yes
High

Strong evidence the building offers assigned parking: 17 of 20 MLS listings list ASSIGN in parking_features and multiple public remarks explicitly state 'assigned parking' or 'one assigned covered parking stall' (examples: 'one assigned covered parking stall', '1 assigned parking'). Mentions appear across many different listings/agents, indicating consistent building-level availability rather than isolated errors.

Parking Covered
Yes
High

Very strong evidence the building provides covered parking: all 20 MLS listings indicate covered parking and numerous remarks explicitly reference 'covered parking stall' or 'covered, assigned parking' (examples: 'covered parking stall', 'one covered parking stall'). The coverage is consistent across many agents and listings.

Parking Deeded
Yes
High

Multiple listings explicitly describe parking as deeded/owned (e.g., 'TWO DEEDED PARKING SPACES'). I searched for 'deeded parking', 'owned parking', and similar phrases and found direct statements confirming deeded parking stalls.

Parking E V
No

No analysis available

Parking Fee
Low

I searched for phrases like 'monthly parking fee', 'monthly parking charge', 'parking rental', 'additional parking cost', and numeric $/month references. While many listings state assigned or covered parking is included and mention guest parking with overnight rates, there is no explicit monthly parking fee amount or statement that parking requires a monthly payment in the public remarks.

Parking Guest
Yes
High

Good evidence guest parking is available: 13 of 20 MLS listings include guest parking and many remarks explicitly promote 'guest parking' or list counts such as '20 Guest Parking Stalls' and '40 guest pkg.' While some agent copy/paste may occur, the repeated mentions and specific stall counts across listings support inclusion.

Parking Secured Entry
Yes
High

Multiple listings describe the building as 'well secured' and specifically mention 'secured parking' or 'secure & covered' parking in conjunction with 24/7 security staff. This pattern, plus the presence of SECENT in recent MLS records, strongly suggests the garage/parking area has controlled, secured entry for residents.

Parking Tandem
No

No analysis available

Parking Valet
No

No analysis available

Parking Waitlist
No
Low

I searched for terms like 'parking waitlist', 'waiting list', and 'join waitlist for parking' across the remarks. There were many references to assigned parking being included and guest parking availability, but no indication of a formal parking waitlist; absence of any mention suggests a waitlist is unlikely.

Security Keyed Elevator
No

No analysis available

Security Card
Yes
High

I searched all public remarks for card/fob/keycard language (key card access, fob access, card reader, electronic access). One listing explicitly states 'electronic lock' and many listings reference secured entry/secured building and electronic/security access, which supports that the building has card/fob access or similar electronic access.

Security Guard
Yes
High

Historical MLS data shows 19/20 listings checked SECGUA and current public remarks across the Waipuna listings repeatedly advertise staffed security (phrases include “24/7 security”, “24-hour security”, “24/7 security guard service”, “security patrol” and “two guards”). Evidence is consistent across multiple agents and many separate listings, supporting a high-confidence conclusion that the building provides on-site security guard service.

Security Patrol
Yes
High

Numerous public remarks explicitly describe on-site security and patrol services, including 24/7 security and security patrol references, so this feature is true with very high confidence.

Security Video
Yes

No analysis available

Central AC
No
High

Multiple recent listings for this building explicitly mention split A/C or individual air conditioners and natural breezes, but there are no references to central air, central HVAC, or building-wide forced air systems. With only 1 of 20 MLS entries checking a central A/C-related box and no supporting remarks, the evidence strongly indicates Waipuna does not offer central air conditioning as a building-wide feature.

Split AC
Yes
High

Confidence 96%: 4/20 MLS listings indicate ACSPL in inclusions, and remarks for multiple units mention 'split A/C systems in every room,' 'split A/C,' and 'all the new split AC units.'

Window AC
Yes
High

MLS inclusions indicate 11/20 listings checked the ACWIUN (window A/C) box. Public remarks explicitly state '1 window AC' in one listing and numerous other listings reference individual room A/C (e.g., 'split A/C', 'A/C in each bedroom', '18,000 BTU Air Conditioner unit'), so there is strong evidence that at least some units have window/individual A/C units.

Concrete
Yes
High

All 20 recent MLS entries for Waipuna list construction_materials=CONCRE (20/20). Public remarks do not explicitly say "concrete," but the building is repeatedly described as a high-rise Waikiki tower and MLS checkbox consistency across multiple agents is strong, indicating reinforced concrete construction.

Double Wall
No
High

Despite 6/20 MLS records marking DOUWAL, all listings consistently show CONCRE and describe a large, tower-style Waikiki condo, with no narrative references to double-wall or wood-framed construction. Given the incompatibility of double-wall framing with this concrete high-rise and the sporadic, agent-driven checkbox use, the double-wall designation is treated as an MLS error and the building is considered not double-wall constructed.

Hollow Tile
No

No analysis available

Masonry/Stucco
Yes
Medium

Only 3 of 20 MLS entries include MASSTU (3/20). No public remarks mention "masonry" or "stucco," so the signal is weak and appears limited to a few listings (possible copy/paste). Included with moderate confidence because some MLS records still indicate it.

Steel Frame
No

No analysis available

Slab
No
Low

Only 1 of 20 MLS entries includes SLAB (1/20) and none of the public remarks reference a "concrete slab" or slab foundation. This feature is included with low confidence because the only signal is a single MLS listing, which may reflect a unit-specific or agent-entered value rather than a building-wide documented foundation type.

Stone
No

No analysis available

Wood Frame
No

No analysis available

Above Ground
Yes
Medium

Seven of 20 MLS entries mark ABOGRO (7/20). Public remarks focus on high floors, lanais, and views (consistent with above-ground structure) but do not explicitly state "above ground construction." Evidence is moderate and consistent with a high-rise condominium.

Brick
No

No analysis available

Single Wall
No

No analysis available

STR Allowed
No
High

At least one listing explicitly prohibits vacation/short-term rentals and imposes a 90-day minimum, and other language supports long-term rental requirement. I searched for 'short-term', 'vacation rental', '30-day', '90-day minimum' and found explicit prohibition evidence.

STR Hotel Pool
No
High

Because short-term rentals are prohibited, hotel rental-pool participation is not applicable. I searched for 'hotel rental pool', 'hotel program', and brand-pool mentions and found none.

STR Mandatory Pool
No
High

No remarks indicate a mandatory hotel rental pool or required participation. I searched for 'mandatory', 'required to participate', 'must participate' in context of rental programs and found no such language; combined with explicit STR prohibition, mandatory pool is false.

Land Tenure: Fee Simple
Yes

No analysis available

Land Tenure: Leasehold
No

No analysis available

Lease Expiry Year
2046
High

Remarks specifically note a leasehold option with the lease remaining until 2046. I searched for phrases such as 'lease remains until', 'leasehold', and 'lease expires' and found the 2046 expiry clearly stated.

Financing V A
Yes
High

Multiple listings explicitly advertise VA-assumable loans and VA borrower financing. I searched the remarks for phrases like 'VA approved', 'VA assumable', and 'VA loan' and found several clear mentions indicating VA financing is accommodated.

Insured Fully
Yes
High

Public remarks repeatedly and explicitly confirm the building is fully insured (walls‑in coverage). Several listings include direct phrases such as 'Building is fully insured' and 'Waipuna is fully insured,' supporting a high confidence true value.

Fire Sprinklers
No
High

No public remarks from many different agents mention fire sprinklers, sprinkler systems, or fire suppression despite very detailed amenity lists. FIRSPR appears in only 3/20 MLS amenity fields, which, lacking any remark support or historical indication, is likely a copy-paste/checkbox error rather than evidence of a building-wide sprinkler system.

Fire Life Safety Eval Pass
No
Low

There is no explicit language in any remark indicating the building passed a fire/life safety evaluation. I searched for terms including 'fire life safety evaluation', 'FLSE', 'fire safety', 'passed fire inspection', and 'life safety' and found no references; absence of mention leads to a default false with medium confidence.

Flood Zone (Current)
AE
High

Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.

Flood Zone (June 2026)
AE

No analysis available

View: Ocean
Yes
High

Dozens of listing remarks explicitly advertise ocean/Pacific views (phrases include “ocean view,” “DIRECT OCEAN VIEW,” “panoramic ocean,” and “Pacific”). Multiple agents/units reference ocean views from living rooms, lanais and primary bedrooms, so evidence is strong and consistent across listings rather than a single copy/paste instance.

View: Mountain
Yes
High

Many remarks mention mountain/mauka views or breezes (phrases such as “mountain,” “mauka breezes,” and “mountain points”), referenced across multiple unit descriptions. The mentions are repeated in a variety of listings and not limited to a single ad, indicating building offers mountain/mauka outlooks.

View: Diamond Head
Yes
High

Dozens of listing remarks explicitly reference Diamond Head (examples: “Diamond Head views,” “panoramic Diamond Head,” “Diamond Head sunrises”), with multiple units and high-floor listings calling it out—strong, consistent evidence across listings.

View: City
Yes
High

Multiple listings (dozens of the remarks above) explicitly reference city or skyline views — phrases include "city lights," "city skyline," and "city view." Evidence is strong and consistent across many different listings and agents, confirming the building offers city views.

View: Coastline
Yes
High

Current remarks include language like 'incredible view of Diamond Head, Waikiki, coastline' from a Waipuna unit, and other listings refer to broad ocean and beach vistas that typically encompass shoreline/park edges. Combined with prior evidence that some stacks span from ocean to Diamond Head and park, this supports that certain units enjoy coastline/shoreline views. Even if not universal, the building clearly offers coastline-view homes that buyers may specifically seek.

View: Garden
Yes
High

Numerous listings explicitly describe garden/park-like views and on-site landscaped features — phrases include "duck pond," "serene pond," "lush gardens," "tranquil pond," and "garden with pond and walking path." The repeated, detailed references across many listings indicate strong building-level garden views.

View: Golf Course
No
High

Confidence 88%: 0/20 MLS entries list GOLCOU; while one remark notes proximity to Ala Wai Golf Course, none mention 'golf course views' despite very detailed view descriptions.

View: Marina
Yes
High

Multiple remarks mention the Ala Wai Canal/canal views and nearby harbor/canal features (phrases: “Ala Wai Canal,” “canal,” and references to Ft. DeRussy/Yacht Club area), providing repeated evidence that some units offer marina/canal-facing views.

View: Sunrise
Yes
High

Multiple listings explicitly mention sunrise or morning views — phrases include "enjoy sunrise views," "morning coffee on the lanai," and "Diamond Head sunrises." At least several different unit remarks reference sunrise/morning sun, indicating the building routinely offers eastern/morning exposure rather than a single agent copy/paste; evidence is strong and consistent across many listings.

View: Sunset
Yes
High

Many listings call out sunset viewing — phrases include "sunset skies," "Ewa sunsets," "sunset views," and mentions of watching fireworks from the lanai. The consistent, repeated mentions across numerous listings support that the building offers sunset/western-exposure views.

View: Cemetery
No

No analysis available

Fireworks View
Yes
High

Several listings explicitly advertise views of fireworks from units/lanai (including direct mentions of 'Friday night fireworks' and 'occasional fireworks shows'), providing strong evidence that fireworks are visible from the building.

Frontage Type

Hobron/Ena
Yes

No analysis available

Pets Allowed
Yes

No analysis available

Resident Manager
Yes
High

High confidence that Waipuna has an on-site resident manager: 19 of 20 recent MLS listings include the RESMAN amenity and numerous public remarks explicitly state phrases like "on-site resident manager", "onsite manager" and "resident manager on site" across multiple listings. The evidence is consistent across many agents/listings rather than a single outlier, supporting inclusion of this building-level feature.

Condotel
No
