Who Is Carole Hujber Sanek? Florida Realtor, Social Butterfly Media, Friend, or Who Knows What? A Facebook Exchange.

PREFACE
Many, many years ago, my wife (long before she became my wife, like back in 1966) told me about a friend of hers with whom she had a strong, positive, close bond. Then, a few years after my wife and I had wed back in 1995, we took a trip to Florida. It was then at a restaurant where we dined with this old friend and her husband that I was personally inroduced to my wife's close friend. Indeed, I had thought that I also had become a friend of the friend of my wife as over the years she and I exchanged e-mails that were very pleasant and became connected on the social media.  The key phrase there is "I had thought."

There were several instances where the "friend" made comments on my Facebook wall that other friends of mine felt were arrogant, abrasive, and insulting. Consequently, I was a bit more careful in monitoring the contents of my Facebook wall that were visible to "THE FRIEND" whose name is Carole Hujber Sanek.

Apparently, I was not careful enough nor discrete enough in a posted message thread of mine on Facebook that I had made visible to the public last month(i.e. November 2014). And, I must also admit, as the message thread went on I was not as tactful, courteous, and polite as I should have been. Well, regardless, the fact remains that Carole Hujber Sanek removed me as a "friend" and has blocked me on Facebook; and, she no longer communicates with me.

I am going to post the contents of that message thread (which I copied and saved in my computer) here on my blog in order for you to read the Facebook exchange yourself.

But before I do that, I am first going to share with you other information that was on the Facebook pages of Carole Hujber Sanek herself that I had also copied and saved in my computer before she took the action to "unfriend" and block me on Facebook.

FAVORITE QUOTES

It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all the doubt.-Mark Twain
I am very easily satisfied with the very best! Winston Churchill

And then there is this one dedicated to a certain person who needs to read this "Just how small do I have to get to fit into your world?"

I own my thoughts, no one else owns them, or speaks for me. I will not be drawn into drama because that is a very negative place to be. I will not get angry because anger kills your T-cells which you need everyday, all the time, to keep you healthy. I will not judge your opinion, because you own it. I may not agree with your opinion, but I will not argue it, or argue with you. If you think I am wrong to feel this way, then push the unfriend option - you own your decisions, you own your choices.

Roland Louis Hansen: Cut the middle man and make a direct purchase offer. You and I both save unnecessary realtor-related fees. You get a house at  a much lower purchase price and I save the hassle of listing with a realtor and all the malarkey that goes with that. I do not seek profit, only a return on  the costs and expenses that I have invested since January 2003. Look at the following link to see what Dreamland Villa homes are being sold for:

Roland Louis Hansen: Carole - I despise real estate agents - my opinion is based on dealings I have had on several occasions since 1971 with both  seller and buyer agents.
AND BTW, Carole Sanek, Inspections and appraisals may be performed by means other than using a realtor!!!!

Roland Louis Hansen: Patricia Cardarelli, Patricia Cardarelli, Dale Zolciak, Jan Charles Hansen, and others who may be interested in the selling price of  my Dreamland Villa Arizona home:
You can get a good idea of what I mean by "reasonable" when you consider previous statements I have made on what I had paid, what improvements I  have made, the comment I made stating " that. I do not seek profit, only a return on the costs and expenses that I have invested since January 2003"  and if you check the link I placed above showing prices of 'Dreamland Villa Homes for Sale'
Anyone interested in making an offer to purchase this home may contact me via personal Facebook message, yahoo e-mail, gmail, or telephone call.
As an aside, I wonder why people who are not interested in even considering the purchase of the house would even ask. I see that some have asked  and then removed their questions.
On another note, if folks wish to ask me personal questions such as my future plans, where I might choose to live, etc. and/or to have a one-on-one  personal dialogue with me -- that is why I have e-mail - please use that medium to do so. My e-mail address is in the contact information section on my  Facebook "About" page. AND, of course, a telephone conversation is always nice - as is conversation during personal visits.

Roland Louis Hansen: Carole Sanek (a real estate agent) has chosen to write about my comment about "listing with a realtor and all the malarkey that  goes with that" on her Facebook page and to do so without tagging me. What a gutless move on her part!!! Self-serving on her part; that is just one  example of why I have a low opinion of real estate agents. Check out her message thread for yourself (it is a public posting as is mine here).  https://www.facebook.com/carolelynnesanek/posts/10204308205578116

Carole Sanek: I did that you are right and I would do it again because buyers need to beware of buying without guidance and guidance doesn't have to  come from any REALTORS® - it can come from a title agency, from a lender, from a relative who has had a bad experience in buying, from an attorney  who would tell you all the steps to complete before signing on the dotted line. Google can even assist people in the steps of buying a FSBO. I have no  problem with anyone trying to move a property on their own - none at all. I do have a problem when anyone profiles all agents as you did. I have a  problem with people who resort to insults and ugliness as you have and I would like to point out that I never called you out by name even though for 10  seconds I was tempted to do that but I didn't. So now that you have called yourself out on my wall with your post made in anger have a nice day and I  wish you luck in selling your home.

Apparenly, you are intolerant of those who do not share your perspective.  You have actually proved my point in your "unprofessional" and "unethical" and "unfriendly" behavior in the manner in which you have hijacked my  message thread for your own personal purposes.

Carole Sanek: Roland why are you feeling so persecuted? I never named you by name, you did that. You came onto my post and identified  yourself.....why? You have the right to your opinion as I do mine so I am a tad confused as to why you seem to think you are the only person allowed to  have one. When one chooses inflammatory words, one should be aware that is akin to throwing down a verbal gauntlet. You are still calling names and I  have been nothing but sincere with you I wish you luck and happiness!

Carole Sanek: It's malarkey to know you should still get everything inspected right? It's malarkey to know that a seller should disclose anything that they know is wrong with the house right? It's malarkey to know that a buyer should still get it appraised right? I have nothing against a FSBO as long as people understand all that malarkey could cost them in the long run.

Sherri Elaine: You wouldn't pull your own tooth would you? No, you'd go to the dentist. So that seller wants to sell himself short and get less than market value to save a few thousand dollars? So many FSBO don't realize that they will actually make back the real estate commission and then some by listing with a REALTOR. And Buyer Beware! That seller is probably hiding something and been told by a professional that he should or shouldn't do something.... All that malarky!

Sherri Elaine: On the flip side, I see so many FSBO who are WAY over priced and think buyers aren't savvy enough to check Trulia and Zillow, where I might add the market values are way low. But we RICH REALTORS, we're all out to make a buck and fund our lavish lifestyles because we are all like the agents on Million Dollar Listing. We don't put out any of our own money BEFORE the house sells and we get paid. Nope. WE WORK FOR FREE UNTIL YOUR HOUSE SELLS... WE ARE IN THE RED UNTIL YOUR HOUSE SELLS AND THEN STILL SO EVEN AFTER BECAUSE OF THE TIME AND EXPENSE BECAUSE OF YOUR STUBBORN KNOW IT ALL ASS!!!!

Carole Sanek: First of all you did the belittling of REALTORS® all I did was post your belittling opinion so let's get this in the proper order next let's get more facts straight inspections and appraisals are NOT done by REALTORS® they are done by licensed professionals in their respective fields. It is a crying shame that you made some bad choices in the past with buyer and seller agents but that's on you - there are plenty of honest ethical agents in this country blaming your issues on all of them is past the intelligence I know you possess.

POSTSCRIPT:
Incidentally, here is a message I received on Twitter: "You are blocked from following @carolesanek and viewing @carolesanek's Tweets."
So, that is that; however,
I do want to remind everyone and draw your attention to the following:

From the Facebook pages of Carole Sanek:

"I own my thoughts, no one else owns them, or speaks for me. I will not be drawn into drama because that is a very negative place to be. I will not get angry because anger kills your T-cells which you need everyday, all the time, to keep you healthy. I will not judge your opinion, because you own it. I may not agree with your opinion, but I will not argue it, or argue with you. If you think I am wrong to feel this way, then push the unfriend option - you own your decisions, you own your choices."
