I cannot be the designated Host since I am more than 30 min away and would have to hire a PM in this case which I currently am not looking to do. 

december has one unit fully booked, 2 units half booked, and one unit that is virtually the same as one of the half booked units that has literally 0 nights booked (why?

Why wholesale virtually?

Most people who make a ton on Airbnb hire out designers, put in flashy amenities, and create a true experience.

if you buy a random property 3000 miles away and have to hire out everything and overpay for everything you won't.

In my devious mind, I thinking like you that I hire a parking attendant, install gates and charge an entrance fee if I bought it. 

If this is what concerns you hire a buyer's agent because you are focused on the wrong things altogether.

I just recently got hired for DSNY (New York city department of sanitation) my base pay is 43,000 with alot of overtime opportunities so I do not see myself making any less than 60,000 for my first year.

Many people start out active because they want exposure to real estate and don't know that you can start out passive - you can effectively hire the asset manager and supply capital to the investment.You can have great success as an active or a passive investor - but it is important to understand the difference and to select whichever option matches your skills and resources the best.Good luck!
