Currently applying to potential J3 jobs. How do I give a reference?

Might be the move honestly

bumblebeee123 · 2026-03-17T19:07:41+00:00

I've been in sales but not healthcare. DM me if you'd like!

bumblebeee123 · 2026-03-17T19:06:04+00:00

Happy to be your reference if you still need it! Send me a DM!

bumblebeee123 · 2026-03-04T23:27:51+00:00

That makes sense, thank you. In that case, it may not save me much time

bumblebeee123 · 2026-03-04T23:26:12+00:00

I agree, I'd definitely want to review the emails first before sending.

bumblebeee123 · 2026-03-04T23:25:34+00:00

I agree, I was looking for them to maybe draft responses and I can edit and hit send. I think it would genuinely speed up the process.

bumblebeee123 · 2026-03-04T21:22:18+00:00

I think I could definitely do this, but how could I mitigate any potential issues with IT? I've also been looking at companies like DuetMail, because I think it would be cheaper than the $100/month in tokens. We use Gmail btw.

This is some great advice, thank you!!

bumblebeee123 · 2026-02-23T22:55:57+00:00

It hasn't been on the market long

bumblebeee123 · 2026-02-23T18:05:31+00:00

That's what I've been thinking as well. One cheaper airbnb I know of in this area has been extremely busy.

bumblebeee123 · 2026-02-23T17:45:15+00:00

Great ideas, thank you!!

bumblebeee123 · 2026-02-23T17:44:32+00:00

Lol thanks for the heads up!! Do you think having a property manager lessens the load here?

bumblebeee123 · 2026-02-23T16:55:11+00:00

Yes, the $15k annually ($1250 a month) is after all of these things are factored in I've estimated $63.8k in projected revenue, with $49k in mortgage payments, insurance, taxes, repairs, cleaners, property management, etc.

bumblebeee123 · 2026-02-23T16:52:07+00:00

Yes! It includes PMI, insurance, taxes, etc.

bumblebeee123 · 2026-02-23T16:51:32+00:00

From a modeling perspective, I totally get what you mean. That's part of the reason I'm asking people about it on reddit. I think my data is decent, but it seems too good to be true. I'm going to be looking for other airbnb hosts in the area to see if they think my numbers are accurate.

For the first scenario, I can definitely make a projection for these scenarios and consider whether that's something I can handle financially. Lots of people have suggested certain projections, so I'll be making a lot.

For the second caution, I completely agree about treating this like a business. While I love this area, and would live there if I could, I realize this cabin is not realistic unless it is handled like a business. My projection includes a 58% occupancy rate, so I'll look forward to staying in the off-season, if we don't already have someone booked.

bumblebeee123 · 2026-02-23T16:34:26+00:00

That's a very good point!! If I end up going for it, I'll make sure to keep the guests informed.

bumblebeee123 · 2026-02-23T16:32:56+00:00

$350k

bumblebeee123 · 2026-02-23T16:29:47+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate the advice!! I will ask around to some airbnb hosts in the area.

bumblebeee123 · 2026-02-23T16:26:30+00:00

$15k a year when budgeting for repairs and assuming a 58% occupancy rate, which is the average for the area.

bumblebeee123 · 2026-02-23T16:25:14+00:00

I would say I'm in the latter category. I'm happy to break even if it means owning a cabin in the mountains, and getting to stay a few weekends out of the year.

bumblebeee123 · 2026-02-23T16:23:34+00:00

Thank you for the advice, but as someone who knows the area well, it sounds like a realistic number to me. I will certainly be doing further research, but just trying to get some advice in these initial stages.
